The original article is posted on Caixin Datanews: 下届夏季奥运在东京,再下一届呢?

里约奥运会落幕,闭幕式上日本首相安倍晋三以超级玛丽造型告诉全世界:东京来了。东京于2013年在最终的三个城市中获得胜利,取得2020年夏季奥运会的主办权。

从1896年至今现代奥运会的申办城市数量来看,世界各国对奥运的热情在慢慢降温。申奥争夺高峰集中在20世纪20年代至60年代。最多的一次是1936年夏季奥运会举办权争夺战,有13个城市参选,单纳粹德国就有柏林、科隆、纽伦堡、法兰克福四个城市参选。而1984年夏季奥运会举办权则只有洛杉矶一家参选。最近几次夏季奥运会申办城市数量仅维持在四个上下。

里约奥运会这届“惊喜处处”的奥运会差一点就在西班牙马德里举行。奥运主办权遴选信息网站GamesBids资料显示,在2009您的第一轮投票中,西班牙的马德里票数领先巴西里约热内卢,不过在其后两轮投票里约赶超马德里。 Continue reading →

I must confess: I was slightly reluctant before joining the Inaugural Colloquium of D&N Society. I was afraid we will hear a lot about the mantra of data without even scratching the surface of “what data is really about?” and “how can we make the most of it without making it larger than life?”. Fortunately, I couldn’t have been more wrong. The colloquium was a success and bellow I will describe why I felt reluctant and what saved the day for me during our first meeting. Continue reading →
