The number of gold medals in Rio Olympic Games is the first decline after the number of gold medals in London Olympic Games peaked, which is the same as that in Athens Olympic Games in 2004, from 500,000 yuan to 200,000 yuan. In fact, it is a revision of the concept of "gold medal first", which weakens the "gold medal complex" and reflects stronger self-confidence and the return of the Olympic spirit.
In fact, in addition to national awards, large-scale awards from local governments and enterprises are the "big heads" of Olympic champions. Many provinces have awarded huge bonuses of 5 million yuan, and some have also awarded real estate. If you add corporate awards and advertising revenue, the "gold content" of a gold medal is often more than 10 million yuan.
