Who usually pays for the travel, accommodation and meals of athletes from various countries in international sports events?

In countries participating in international sports events, air tickets are purchased by themselves. Upon arrival in the host city, the organizer will arrange a shuttle bus from the airport to the hotel, and there will also be a shuttle bus from the hotel to the competition gymnasium. The hotel is provided by the organizer and is free to stay. When playing games, netizens see the mineral water that athletes drink, which is provided by the organizers free of charge.

Of course, if it is a comprehensive event, such as the Olympic Games, the military games and the World Cup, the organizer will build an athletes' village, which will be specially equipped for athletes according to the standards of five-star hotels. There are daily toiletries in the room, all of which are provided free of charge. The athletes' village has complete supporting facilities, including gym, canteen and reading room, which can be provided free of charge. There are also characteristic cultural streets (you have to pay for shopping in this street), athletes' villages and buses, which are delivered to popular tourist attractions in the city free of charge, but there are time regulations, such as: several times in the morning and several times in the afternoon.

After the Olympic Games, the apartments in the athletes' village can be sold to the outside world. The houses in this village are reserved as high-grade living quarters integrating tourism and residence. It is said that people who can buy this kind of dormitory are above the middle class. Although the athletes' village is built in the suburbs, the price of apartments will not be lower than that in the central city, and even hotter than the real estate in the central city.

In the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, as we all know, China established the Olympic Village in Beijing. The air tickets of the participating countries are self-care, and the room and board expenses are fully borne by China. These expenses are borne by the organizer.

The four-year Olympic Games, as the most important sports event in the world, are basically hosted by big countries. Because for many countries now, the economy is underdeveloped, and they have no extra money to build related Olympic facilities. Every Olympic Games needs to spend a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources.

For example, this year's military sports meeting was held in Wuhan, China. To this end, Wuhan has also specially built a military transport village. Countries that come to participate in the competition only need to fly to Tianhe Airport, and the next itinerary will be arranged by us.

However, although the Olympic Games is a big loss, it can enhance the influence of big countries and enhance their popularity. Moreover, there are many Olympic sponsorship projects and volunteers, and the state will also have corresponding income while spending.

Many people think that holding international competitions is a loss-making business, so the frequency of holding international competitions in China has obviously increased in recent years. Can't this show that China is growing and developing rapidly? Because the country is rich and strong, there is a lot of capital to hold sports meetings. Come on, motherland!
