Days after the inaugural ceremony of the Olympic Games are coming to light some hidden details, including the decision not to leave the stage to the seven year old girl who entonó Ode to the Motherland because it was felt that it was not the appropriate image for the occasion.

A member of the politburo called for another girl's face and put finger to sing, said the director of music for the ceremony Chen Qigang to radio in Beijing.

The audience will understand that this was something of national interest, said in an interview.
He also circulated that some versions of the fireworks that were on television had been pre-recorded, perhaps for fear that the cameras could not capture the 29 planned explosions.

China has made it impossible to disseminate an image impeccable during the games, returning to many provinces and cities plugging their buildings under construction or in poor condition.
The quest for perfection apparently included the children.

The performance of small Miaoke Lin was a success. But it turned out that the voice was not theirs but the Peiyi Yang, also in seven years.
The authorities have decided that Yang was not sufficiently attractive, but Chen said that his voice was the best.
During a live test shortly before the ceremony, a member of the politburo, which did not identify, before he had to make a change. It was then decided to combine the voice of the Peiyi image Mioake.
We combine the perfect voice with perfect performance, Chen said.

The portal Sina.com on Tuesday published a photo of Peiyi smiling, with flequillo and uneven teeth.
The other secret of the ceremony was that of fireworks. While most of them were real, part of what was televised around the world, and even in the stadium's giant screen, images were obtained with a third dimension computing.

It was confirmed that was provided in advance to the television companies, for convenience and for theatrical effects, as in other major events, said the spokesman of the Organizing Committee, Wang Wei. On the day of the ceremony was authentic human footprints from south to north of the city.

However, due to poor visibility at night, may have been used pre-recorded material, he added.
The computer images were produced by Crystal Digital Technology Company of Beijing.

We made every effort to ensure that seem real, said the spokesman for the company, Lei Ming, the Beijing Times newspaper in English. Most people do not noticed the difference.

The ceremony was praised everywhere and was seen by more than 1,000 million people.
