What can be called a powerful country?
Recently, the Internet has revolved around "Is China a sports power?" There is a heated debate. People who think that China is a sports power say that China can win the gold medal in the Olympic Games, a world-wide sports event, and the state attaches great importance to sports, and sports for all are well developed. All these show that China is not only a sports power, but also a sports power. Opponents believe that although China won the first gold medal in the Olympic Games, China did not invest much in sports, the sports facilities in rural areas were poor, the people's sports awareness was weak, and the national fitness level was not high compared with that in developed countries, so it cannot be said that China is a sports power. So, what is a sports power? I'm trying to formulate a set of standards here:

1. sports consciousness: government leaders at all levels and the broad masses of the people have a strong sense of sports. They regard sports as an important part of a powerful country, and leaders at all levels take the lead in carrying out various sports activities, not just for show or as a pastime to adjust their lives. It is a basic principle of materialism to realize that strong exercise can drive strong body, and strong physical fitness can drive strong spirit.

2. Sports investment: The sports investment of the state and governments at all levels has caught up with or surpassed the level of developed countries in the world. Our country's sports investment was about 480 million in competitive sports and 270 million in mass sports last year. This kind of investment is extremely disproportionate to our country with a population of 654.38+0.3 billion. According to the data released by the Ministry of Finance, China's fiscal revenue exceeded 5 1 trillion yuan last year, of which nearly 9% was tax revenue. Sports investment accounts for a small proportion of China's fiscal revenue. Of course, the above-mentioned sports investment may not include local government investment, but even if there is local government investment, it will not be much, because we have long had a wrong understanding, as if sports investment is a consumer investment, not a productive investment, and too much investment in this area will not bring about productivity growth. This misunderstanding just ignores the basic theory that man is the most important productive force. Due to insufficient investment in sports, there are few sports facilities in urban and rural areas. Gyms and swimming pools can only be places for competitive sports and rich people to exercise, and people can't get in at all. Residents in urban communities can only exercise by some fitness equipment set up by the rest of the welfare lottery.

Third, sports. From kindergarten to university, we should carry out the concept of "all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique and beauty", and pay special attention to physical education as the content of basic education. Kindergarten to primary school, primary school to junior high school, junior high school to college, college students' employment should take physical education as the examination content. College entrance examination sports scores should account for more than 30% of college entrance examination scores, and college students whose sports scores are not up to standard cannot graduate.

Fourth, sports facilities. Gymnasiums, gymnasiums and sports facilities in urban and rural schools should be open to the public free of charge. These gymnasiums and sports facilities were built with taxpayers' money. It is really unfair to shut taxpayers out now.

Five, the parallel development of competitive sports and mass sports. On the one hand, we should start with dolls and urge domestic weak sports, such as a few big balls. On the other hand, mass sports activities should be carried out in the whole society, so that everyone can feel the state's attention to sports. For example, although the Olympic Games are held in China, it has no influence on ordinary people in China who didn't buy tickets to watch the Olympic Games except watching TV to cheer them up. I made a suggestion before the Olympic Games began. But I still think that a real sports power should be measured by the sports activities of ordinary people.

Six, sports theory and sports research. We will study the relationship between sports and economy, sports and health, sports and moral education, intellectual education and aesthetic education, and sports and life throughout the country, and develop China's sports theory to make it in a leading position in the world.
