Hot stuff: Vice Chair Dan Brody aims to be a torchbearer
24th September 2007
AmCham-China Vice Chairman Dan Brody has thrown his hit into the ring - or, as this is the Olympics, should we say rings - in a contest sponsored by Lenovo and China Daily whereby eight foreigners will be chosen to carry the Olympic torch. According to a China Daily article:
Fellow hopeful and Google executive Dan Brody is an American who has lived in China for over 10 years, first as a student and teacher before moving into the corporate world.
Brody, vice-chair of the American Chamber of Commerce in China, counts among his favorite places: “Cosmopolitan areas of Beijing where even the old ladies doing fan dances are not surprised to hear you speak Chinese, and Xinjiang where people think I’m a local.
The eight torchbearers will be selected via a combination of online voting and selection by a panel of judges. To vote for Dan, visit here. To register for the contest, visit here.
