2. 1988 The gold medal prize for the Seoul Olympic Games is 1.5 million.
3. During the1992 Barcelona Olympic Games and 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, the prizes awarded by the State Sports Commission to gold, silver and bronze medal athletes were 50,000 yuan, 30,000 yuan and 20,000 yuan respectively.
In 2000, the gold medal prize of Sydney Olympic Games rose to 80,000.
The 2004 Athens Olympic Games was the one with the highest prize money and the largest increase so far. The State Sports General Administration awarded 200,000 gold medals, 200 silver medals10.2 million and 80,000 bronze medals, all of which were exempt from personal income tax.
In order to encourage China athletes to wear gold and silver in the Olympic Games and win great honor for the motherland, at the same time, the reward of athletes who won gold medals or other medals has become the focus of people's most attention.
The competition for gold medals in the Olympic Games is becoming increasingly fierce, and the gold content of each event is obviously different. Take the Athens Olympic Games as an example, in order to encourage competition results and make breakthroughs in some events, huge awards were set up separately. For example, since the last session, the Tian Guan Center has established a system in which gold medal winners get millions of dollars, and this time the winners are Liu Xiang and Xing Huina. The water sports management center, which had not won a gold medal in the Olympic Games before, also set up a grand prize of 6,543.8+0,000 yuan, and Mongolia and Yang Wenjun achieved a breakthrough of zero gold medal for the country, each of which won a prize of 6,543.8+0,000 yuan. "When the gold medal rings, there will be two thousand pieces of gold." When China athletes win gold medals in the Olympic Games, their financial resources will also roll in.
In addition to some awards given by the State Sports General Administration to athletes who have won medals, other awards can be divided into two parts: First, the local sports bureau or government to which each athlete who has won medals belongs will also give corresponding bonuses to reward Olympic heroes. The second is the bonus commitment of local enterprises and private enterprise owners to outstanding athletes. For the winning athletes, there are prizes in the prizes, and there are always surprises. Take Hubei Olympic champions as an example. Gao Song and Li Ting were awarded 500,000 yuan each in Hubei Province, 80,000 yuan each in Provincial Sports Bureau and 400,000 yuan each in Wuhan Women's Federation. In addition, after the Athens Olympic Games, Mr. Fok Yingdong gave the gold medal winner a gold jar worth 80,000 dollars.
Some athletes have been promised by local governments or entrepreneurs the day after winning the championship that they will receive housing and other forms of rewards. For example, some private entrepreneurs in Shandong want to send Li Du, the first gold medal athlete, a villa. Now she has accepted an invitation from a company in Zibo to become the image spokesperson of her sporting goods. Wang Yifu and Zhang Ning, two Liaoning veterans, each have a Zhonghua car, and others have real estate, including Guo Jingjing, Yang Jinghui and Tang. It is not difficult to see that after the last Olympic Games, the average bonus of some gold medal athletes has already exceeded one million.
Facing the 2008 Olympic Games one year later, the State General Administration of Sport will definitely continue to implement the reward policy in order to encourage athletes to achieve more achievements, although the country has not yet introduced a comprehensive reward method. Cui Dalin, assistant director of the State Sports General Administration, made it clear that the prize money of the 2008 Olympic Games will not be lower than that of the Athens Olympic Games. In addition, the state has also introduced a new policy of tax exemption for Olympic bonuses to ensure an increase in bonuses. In order to encourage a breakthrough in the 2008 Olympic Games, the Tennis Management Center has formulated a policy of increasing athletes' bonuses by 15%. In addition, after the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, the social atmosphere of rewarding Olympic champions will reach its peak after the 2008 Olympic Games. Only counting all kinds of bonuses and in-kind rewards, it is estimated that each Olympic gold medalist in the 2008 Olympic Games will receive no less than RMB 654.38+RMB 5,000.
