Beijing Welcomes You (simplified Chinese: 北京欢迎你; traditional Chinese: 北京歡迎你; pinyin: Běijīng huānyíng nǐ; zhuyin: ㄅㄟˇ ㄐㄧㄥ ㄏㄨㄢ ㄧㄥˊ ㄋㄧˇ) is a feature song for the 100-day countdown of the 2008 Summer Olympics held in Beijing, China.[1] The song comprises one hundred famous artists and entertainers from mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and South Korea. Its music video includes a montage of scenes from all over Beijing. It features the largest contingent of famous artists in a single Chinese-language music video.[2] The 5 characters in the original Chinese title of the song ("Bei Jing Huan Ying Ni") were used for the names of the "Fuwa" mascots which symbolized the 2008 Summer Olympics: Bei-Bei: fish, Jing-Jing: giant panda, Huan-Huan: the fire, Ying-Ying: gazelle, and Ni-Ni: swallow. The song runs over six minutes in length. Since its release the song has been extremely popular with the Chinese public.
