American fireworks and the demand of the spectators are solid colors like gold, silver and long lasting like thunderstorm effects. They want 5,000 shells and very sensational. China has its own characteristic. They want it to be colorful. It is more of a melancholy kind of feeling and very folk-art oriented, which is different from the special effects and demands of the U.S. The opening and the closing ceremonies for both the Olympic and Paralympic Games will be different from each other.
