Question

Why do chinese people win all the gold medals?

Answer 1

right now this olympics means more than sport. they take a military-like attitude towards sports. They even started a project like 8 years ago called project 119 to do well in this olympics.

china is the new soviet union. the make up will eventually come off.

Answer 2

cos the chinks bombed our country

they have an advantage

Answer 3

It is because they have spent alot of money on taking children away from their parents at birth and training them from a young age- never letting them see or hear from their parents again!- cruel but true!

The mystery on how Ali Baba was left with two empty hands with pants down.

With left-overs of physical bones of skill and technology of the past.

With the forty thieves walking off with the gifts of life back in the past.

While tribe of a Rudeness Tribe short-changed, conned and deceived children of community of the dirty dozen that idol worshiping the dead Mummy of failures and horrors of the past was glory and success of past civilization in moving backwards in time with their self lack of knowledge without being aware of it being expose in time.

Answer 10

They're not winning ALL the golds.  

Answer 11

Simply, training very hard.

Answer 12

The Olympics are at...wait for it...Bejign,CHINA!!!!!

They are more familiar with their land,then we Westerns.  

Answer 13

As an initial point, China is not winning all of the gold medals and are not winning the most overall medals at this point.

However, they do have a home crowd advantage.  Being the host is normally worth some improvement in medal standings.

Further, they are the largest country in the world in terms of population.  Just by pure luck, they should get a significant number of good athletes that make them competitive in all sports.

In addition, China is an authoritarian (maybe even totalitarian) country.  Unlike the U.S., where families get to decide how much effort a young athlete will put into a sport, in China, government officials decide which children should be sent to sports "schools."  While such a program is inherently inefficient (as most potential athletes do not develop into internationally competitive athletes), if you cast a large enough net, you will get some real good athletes.  Then, you train them ruthlessly to be among the best in the world.  

The bottom line is that if your national goal is to win medals at the Olympics (as opposed to a good life for your people), the method that was used in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe and is now used by China will keep you near the top.

Answer 14

In part because they cheat!

Answer 15

Is there a problem?

They're the best at the things that they're good at, I guess, much like how Phelps gets gold medals for his domination in swimming?

Answer 16

If you take a look at past olympics this has never happened at the magnitude that it is happening at these Olympics leading some people to speculate that it is one of two things.

1. Their national pride is really kicking in.  When a host country competes generally they do somewhat better that normally in the medal count.

2. Or...and some people may hate me for saying this but there are many people speculating that ever since the chinese knew they would be hosting the olympic games they took athletes and began to train them ONLY for this meet.  Some claim that they have been pumping steriods and human growth hormones in some of these kids for years.  All they had to do after that was take them off the drugs for 3-6 months and every test they do is going to come up crystal clean.

Not necessary true again so don't hate me for saying this, just what I have read on various sites.
