As Chinese athletes score medals in the competition, several “Made in China” products are also garnering enthusiastic acclaim in Rio.

No. 1: Mosquito net

As the primary transmitters of the Zika virus, mosquitoes have been a serious cause of concern to the Rio Olympics Committee. High-profile tennis and golf players, such as Milos Raonic and Jason Day, even dropped out of the Games this year because of the epidemic. After a few failed attempts by the Brazilian government to reduce the number of mosquitoes in Rio, delegations took things into their own hands. That’s when China’s mosquito nets began to take over the Internet and wow the Olympic village.

Though not as high-tech as Japan’s anti-mosquito wristband or South Korea’s specially-designed mosquito-repellant sportswear, the cost-efficient mosquito net is just as effective.

No. 2: Cupping

American swimmer Michael Phelps just won a record 19th Olympic gold medal in the men’s 4x100-meter freestyle relay, but many viewers were focused mainly on the round red marks all over his body. They are the results of a traditional Chinese therapy called cupping.

The therapy works by suctioning heated cups to sore body parts to stimulate blood circulation. This technique is highly effective at relieving pain and soreness. In addition to Phelps, U.S. gymnast Alex Naddour also posted photos of himself receiving the treatment.

No. 3: Subway trains

Subway Line 4, the largest infrastructure project of the Rio Olympics, started operation on Aug. 1. It is estimated that the subway line carries 300,000 people every day. What's more, all the train units were produced by Changchun Railway Vehicles Co. under China CNR Corp. Ltd., one of China's biggest train manufacturers.

The railway company equipped each subway cabin with a high-capacity air conditioning unit. Rio State Transportation Secretary Rodrigo Vieira spoke highly of both the quality and design of the Chinese trains. Chinese trains have also been put to use on two more of Rio's subway lines.

No. 4: Machinery

At the construction sites of the main Olympic stadium and the Olympic village, heavy machinery from Chinese companies contributed significantly to the structures.

No. 5: Air conditioning

Chinese appliance-maker Gree is the official source of small appliances for the Rio Olympic Games. Meanwhile, Midea, another leading Chinese appliance manufacturer, supplied air conditioning for 24 sports stadiums and affiliate facilities of the Games.

No. 6: Ferry

For people who work in Rio but live in the neighboring town of Niteroi, the China-made ferry boat Pao de Acucar is the first stop on their daily commute across Guanabara Bay.
