The four great inventions by Chinese

The opening ceremony of Beijing Olympic games held on Aug. 8 was so impressive.
The ceremony was directed by Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou. The four great inventions, i.e. paper, the compass, gunpowder, printing, were focused. I am glad that Chinese feel proud of them. China is rapidly developing, as like Japan was developing around 1964 when Tokyo Olympic games was held. Japanese had realized that
we were one of the world composers and that we should follow the global standards.
History repeats itself. I hope China will develop soundly.
