The Olympic Games, which suffered the most losses in history, took 30 years to pay off all its debts. What is the current situation?
The Olympic Games is a sports event all over the world. In the past, many countries were trying to host the Olympic Games. A short half-month competition often consumes huge manpower, material resources and financial resources, and some countries even support it nationwide. Nowadays, with the global economic downturn, the Olympic Games has become a hot potato. The Olympic Committee promises to help finalize the host cities of the 2024 and 2028 Olympic Games.

Today, let's talk about the most serious defeat in the history of the Olympic Games, that is 1976 Montreal Olympic Games. At that time, the enthusiasm of countries around the world to host the Olympic Games was very high, and many countries offered various conditions to impress the Olympic Organizing Committee. In order to win the right to host the Olympic Games, Montreal said that it would provide free accommodation for sports delegations from all countries and raise funds by itself to hold the most frugal and perfect Olympic Games.

In the end, Montreal won the right to host the Olympic Games, but the reality is far from ideal. During the course of venue construction, the budget was continuously exceeded, and more and more funds were invested in the later period. After the end of the whole Olympic cycle, Montreal was in debt of $654.38+0 billion. Seeing this, local enterprises also withdrew from Montreal after the Olympic Games. Originally, they wanted to use the Olympic Games to promote the development of the city, but they dug a huge hole for themselves.

In desperation, the government issued various lottery tickets to mobilize the whole people to pay their debts. Until 2006, they finally paid off all their debts with interest as high as $3 billion.

After the end of the Rio Olympic Games last year, many venues are now dilapidated, and the Rio Olympic Games is also in a daze. Nowadays, the Olympic Games has become a hot potato. Although the host cities of the 2024 and 2028 Olympic Games have been determined, 2032 is bound to become a problem again. In this regard, the Olympic Organizing Committee also said that China should carry forward the demeanor of a big country.

Netizens have different views on this. Some netizens think that China has the strength to hold another successful Olympic Games, but more netizens think that it is completely unnecessary and wastes too much money and people. what do you think? Deposits and loans on the internet financial platform believe that the 2008 Olympic Games has been a great success. As for whether to hold the Olympic Games again, we should consider it clearly according to the national conditions!
