With the International Olympic Committee President Jacques Rogge in the evening local time in Copenhagen, Denmark shouted "Rio de Janeiro" name - - 2016 Summer Olympics bid drama came to a close. In Madrid (Spain), Chicago (USA), Tokyo (Japan) race, the city of samba and eventually win the following factors are inseparable.
First of all, the Olympic Games is to give a country to bring far-reaching changes, and whether they could better promote the Olympic movement, the IOC has always been the choice of the host city for the Olympics important considerations. Compared with the other three candidate cities, Rio de Janeiro has a unique advantage - the beautiful coastal city of the Olympic Games for the first time will bring the South American continent. Tokyo has held the first Olympic Games, the United States since 1984 also has held two Summer Olympic Games and the next Winter Olympics, and the 2012 Summer Olympics and the 2014 Winter Games will be held in continental Europe, and therefore at this point in Madrid Rio compared to the same and there is no advantage. This is Rio's third bid to host the Olympic Games of the new century, the coastal city had bid for the 2004 and 2012 two Olympics, but did not succeed. Rio de Janeiro is the second bid for the South American city, after Buenos Aires bid three times without success.

Second, it organized the 2007 Pan American Games and the successful bid to host the 2014 World Cup to be held in Rio and has accumulated experience in international bidding competition. Brazilian Sports Minister Silva recently accepted Xinhua News Agency reporters Cai Fang and Shi Xinxin full represent Rio already has the capacity to host large-scale events, the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio's success has illustrated this point. 2011 World Military Games will be held in Rio, but Rio is one of eight sub-Division 2014 World Cup, the two major international sports events held in Rio will also accumulate experience in organizing the contest.
Third, the support of the Brazilian federal government, Rio's security has been some improvement since 2013, which makes the IOC members to see the sincerity of the Rio bid. Rio Olympic bid process has been plagued by security problems, in 2008 more than 5,000 criminal cases in the city there were. But since 13 years, the Rio city government has tightened up security, with the support of the Brazilian federal government, Rio crime rate under control. Brazilian Federal Government's commitment will provide about $ 60 million in federal funds for the city to improve security, the Olympics. Brazil's Minister of Justice Tarsus Ren Luo said recently, Rio has made great progress in addressing public safety issues, particularly the success of the 2007 Pan American Games, also held here every year and the world's largest carnival , more than 100 people participated, Rio has been working to improve the security environment, I believe that Rio's successful bid to make this coastal city has become more and more secure.
To host the Olympic Games, there is no strong financial support is unimaginable. When the United States, Japan and Spain have been hit during the financial crisis, Brazil affected is relatively small. After a short period of time, the recession in 2013, the economic situation has begun to improve. As the mayor of Rio de Janeiro, said Paes, Rio de Janeiro has the most "real" bid program. Paes said: "I think the economic crisis in Brazil, for the control of markets and the economic strength of Brazil, all of positive significance to the Rio bid This is a strong and growing economic strength of countries.."
Finally, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from top to bottom and can be successful bid universal support are inseparable. Brazilian President Lula said: "For other countries, but is once again organizing the Olympics only, but for Brazil, which is related to the ability to enhance the national question of dignity, there is no need to hold a country than Brazil Olympics. "a Brazilian media survey showed that 85% of the public support of the city of Rio Olympic Games, up from 84.9% in Madrid, is also higher than 78% in Chicago, whereas polls in February 2013, held in , only 55.5% of the public supported the tokyo Olympic bid.
Located advantage of the South American continent, experience in organizing large-scale events, governance law and order problem determination, increasingly booming economy, coupled with the broad support of all the people, Rio de Janeiro eventually won the right to host the Olympic Games victory in this competition.
