Even though Rio 2016 is "Made in Brazil", the Olympic Games is going to definitely see a lot of "Made in China". From Olympics mascot, security check equipment and air-conditioning installations to sports equipment, Chinese brands are the main engine.
As the world's attention shifts to Rio, Chinese brands are riding the Olympics wave through big-ticket sponsorship and marketing deals. Different Olympics-related products are making appearances aiming to cash-in on the big game.
Here are some of the Chinese brands to look out for during the summer Olympics.
