Zhang Xiaohui, Lift technician
I think the Olympic Games are about the continuation and the passing on of the Olympic spirit - which I believe is unity, aggressiveness and co-operation,' Mr Zhang, 27, said.
'We work in pairs to check the lifts, a job that needs co-operation and teamwork. It's just like the gymnastic teams, where members all work hard together to strive for one goal or dream,' he said, minutes after the Chinese gymnastic team won the gold medal at the stadium.
The technician and his teammates are responsible for the safety and smooth running of the nine lifts at the stadium. Competitions such as artistic gymnastics, trampoline and handball are held at the stadium.
The team needs to check the lifts before and after the events, and to monitor if they are running smoothly during the competitions.
One person has to be in the lift and another outside it during a check, Mr Zhang explained.
