The Beijing Organizing Committee will also help speed up the construction of the relevant venues and supporting facilities, promising the construction tasks to be completed by 2019. As revealed, at the appropriate time, a market development plan will be released, in which Beijing 2022 will detail the various ways in which it will finance the games.
According to Xinhua, IOC President Thomas Bach has sent a congratulatory letter to the organizing committee, saying "Beijing is making history as the first city in the world to host both the Summer and Winter Olympic Games."
