This search for international talent is part of President Xi Jinping's quest to put on an “extraordinary Winter Olympics.”
"The lack of athletic and management expertise in winter sports in our country should be addressed by pushing the training program of local staffers and borrowing experience from all possible circles, which was highlighted by the president in several of his remarks," said Yang Yang, a member of the International Olympic Committee.
