Reality TV meets the Olympics
| A recent article in EuroBiz (a magazine published by the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China) has reported that CCTV will soon be airing an Olympic-themed reality TV show. The show will put contestants through a series of physical and psychological tests, with the most suitable candidate becoming the coxswain for China's Olympic rowing team. I am not very knowledgeable about China's rowing situation, but I would've thought that becoming an Olympic coxswain requires years of training. Incredibly the whole of China doesn't have a decent coxswain, but if it does, then China's real coxswains can feel miffed at being replaced by an amateur who has been rewarded for attracting the most funds for CCTV and China Mobile. |
