- Abstract
The 29th Summer Olympic Games was held in Beijing in 2008. Like the previous Olympic Games, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games had a profound impact on the local economic growth of Beijing, which could be divided into three stages: the pre-Olympic Games, the mid-Olympic Games, and the post-Olympic Games. However, in these three different stages, factors that influenced on the local economic growth of Beijing were different, and the levels of effect were also different, which could be divided into direct effect and indirect effect. On the whole, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games created many positive effects on the local economic growth of Beijing, including a great improvement in many different industries, the direct income from hosting the Olympic Games, and an increase in number of jobs.
