According to CCTV Sports, on July 24th local time, at the 142nd IOC Session, Lili Wei, Vice President of the Chinese Olympic Committee, was elected as an Executive Board Member of the International Olympic Committee, with a term of four years.
Lili Wei stated that China has a long way to go in gaining a stronger voice in sports and hopes for more people to get involved, participate in rule-making, and play a role in sports diplomacy. Gaining a stronger voice in sports is just as important as winning medals in competitions. “I won many gold medals during my career, but I never won an Olympic gold medal. Since I became an IOC member in 2012, I felt like I had won an Olympic medal in a different sense.”
