Strange. I do not read Chinese, but if he got 2 million RMB, it cannot have been for winning China's first gold medal. China already got a gold four hours earlier in women's 48 kg weightlifting. But of course he won China's first gold in shooting, as well as China's (and the entire Games') first male gold. Could it be one of these? -- Jao (talk) 21:26, 24 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
The cash award was initially for Du Li, but she did not win gold for her first event, so the default went to Pang Wei. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs 03:03, 2 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
All right, I take that as his taking the first gold in shooting being the key. -- Jao (talk) 07:03, 2 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
