Documentary highlights the immense contribution to the success of the Winter Olympics by those who normally remain in the shadows, Xu Fan reports.

With the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics in full swing, the eyes of the world are upon the medal-winning sports stars. However, there are many ordinary people-varying from venue maintenance workers to volunteers and medical staff-who also deserve a "gold medal" for their efforts to ensure the Games go smoothly.

These unsung heroes have, recently, been highlighted in a six-episode documentary series, From Beijing to Beijing: Life Between Olympics, produced by China Media Group. It focuses on a wide range of people from different walks of life, recounting how they have devoted themselves to the event's preparation or contributed in their own individual way to the sporting extravaganza.
