Abstract

In March 2022, the Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympics were successfully concluded. Against the background of the global spread of the COVID-19，the great value of the successful hosting of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games is recognized worldwide. Before the Beijing Winter Olympics, winter sports developed well in the northeastern provinces of China.But Compared with Europe and North America, there are still many deficiencies in the development of winter sports in China.The winter sports industry is mostly concentrated in the northern region, and the industrial scale and management mode are relatively lagging behind. There is a shortage of winter sports stadium, the stadium conditions are far from the international competition standards, and the maintenance of stadium facilities mostly rely on foreign technical support. Most of the equipment manufacturing relies on foreign imports. TThere is a serious shortage of winter sports talents in all categories. After the Beijing Winter Olympics, the gorvernment of China has issued a series of policies to promote the development of winter sports.
This paper uses the methods of literature, expert interviews, field visits, logical analysis,to deeply analyze the profound impact of the Beijing Winter Olympics on winter sports competitive level, the development of the winter sports industry, the construction of stadium, and winter sports talent training,the manufacture of equipment, and the assistance of science and technology in winter sports. The study will put forward reasonable countermeasures and suggestions for the sustainable development of all aspects of China winter sports, so as to help China winter sports flourish.
