RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese delegation, led by flag bearer Lei Sheng, marched into the Maracana Stadium in the Rio Olympic Games opening ceremony on Friday.
Chinese athletes marched into the iconic stadium in their usual red and yellow outfits, the colors representing the national flag. The 2008 Summer Olympics and 2020 Winter Games host sent its largest delegation to an overseas Olympic Games with 711 members.
The delegation's 416 athletes, including 35 returning Olympic champions, will compete in 210 events over 26 sports at the Games that ends on Aug. 21.
The 32-year-old Leng, who won the foil individual title at London 2012, China's first ever Olympic gold medal in this event, broke the country's tradition of naming basketball player as flag bearer at the Summer Olympics.
The Volvo Ocean Race's -depleted fleet set sail for China from Abu Dhabi on Saturday for -arguably the toughest stage of the marathon nine-month event.
The fleet has been reduced to six after one boat grounded on a reef in the Indian Ocean in the previous leg from Cape Town to the United Arab Emirates.
Although substantial damage was down to the vessel hydro flask standard mouth 18 oz sale , the team's backers on Friday announced that they plan to -re-enter the race for the last two legs from June with a rebuilt boat.
The 12th edition of the 41-year-old race, generally acknowledged as offshore sailing's toughest challenge, is intriguingly poised with three boats sharing the lead.
Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing and Team Brunel (Netherlands) took the first and second legs and China's Dongfeng Race Team joined them at the top courtesy of two runners-up spots.
The 4,670-nautical-mile (8 hydro flask 18 oz sale ,649-kilometer) leg to China is expected to take three weeks to complete and the weather forecast suggests very light winds will initially be the fleet's biggest problem.
The sailing will get very tricky as the fleet goes through the hazardous Malacca Straits dividing the Indonesian island of Sumatra and Malaysia.
Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing led the six-strong fleet out on Saturday under a thick blanket of fog after several laps of an -in-port course. They were -pursued by Dongfeng Race Team and Team SCA (Sweden), the -all-female crew who won the Abu Dhabi in-port race on Friday.

Now it's easier than ever for people in Beijing to take a picture with their favorite superstars, as Madame Tussauds Wax Museum has finally come to the capital with its collection of wax figures. Unveiled on May 29, this is the fourth Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in China after Shanghai hydro flask 21 oz with sport cap , Hong Kong and Wuhan.
With the hope of meeting with my favorite stars and excited at the prospect of taking some selfies with them, I decided to head down to the museum to take a look myself.
Approaching the museum I noticed that the building was decorated with red lanterns and a rickshaw in order to better fit in with Beijing's Qianmen street, a scenic area south of Tiananmen Square that exudes a rich atmosphere of old Beijing.
Already open for less than a month, the museum was bustling with activity hydro flask 21 oz sale , showing just how popular the museum had become. However, while such a global renowned tourist spot is certainly a welcome addition to the city, the museum has raised certain doubts in some visitors, including myself.
Less realistic Asian stars?
To be more localized hydro flask standard mouth 24 oz sale , the Beijing museum has added a handful of influential Chinese figures from entertainment, sports and business circles.
Looking at the wax figure of one handsome looking Asian figure, it took me a few moments before I realized this was famed Chinese actor Huang Xiaoming. While the statue shared some similarities with Huang, like the contours of his face and the gesture the statue was making hydro flask standard mouth 24 oz bottle , it looked a lot uglier and older. The same was true for the wax figures of other Asian superstars like Jay Chou, Li Binging and Teresa Teng; they all looked like fake mannequins you'd find in a store window.
A visitor named Shi Shengjun shared how she felt about the depictions of the Asian stars, "Some are realistic and some very normal. It's hard too say which part is wrong, but it's kind of like the feeling you get when you meet someone who had some minor plastic surgery." She pointed out that Jackie Chan hydro flask sale 24 oz , Yang Lan and Yao Ming were all quite realistic, whereas Carina Lau, Huang Xiaoming and Li Bingbing were the least realistic.
This is not the first time that wax figures of Asian stars have looked incredibly peculiar. The wax figure of Taiwanese actress Barbie Hsu, which is exhibited in the Hong Kong Madame Tussauds Wax Museum hydro flask standard mouth sale , is almost a joke. The wax portrays her role in Future X-cops (2010), but the figure's wry face makes me wonder if Hsu was genuinely happy when unveiling her own wax figure.
An article in Bazzar Entertainment magazine also mocked some of the figures, "Carina Lau has been carved into Cai Ming (a Chinese female comedian). Do you think I'm blind?" Posting a picture of a terrible looking Madame Tussauds statue of Jay Chou, it joked that the sculptor was sure to be killed by the singer's numerous fans.
However not all the statues were poor reflections of the real thing hydro flask 12 oz coffee sale , there were also Asian celebrities that were quite close to real life, like Yang Liwei, Yang Lan and Jackie Chan.
Amazingly realistic Western celebs
Contrasting with the jokes many of the wax figures of Asian stars are, the statues of Western celebrities should be awarded hydro flask 16 oz coffee sale , since they are almost all amazingly realistic.
