As the Olympic Games goes on, more and more people will find their names in the hall of fame.
Michael Phelps, the American swimmer who has so far won seven gold medals is one such person. Until recently, he was little known locally.
Chen Xiexia, the woman weightlifter, who won the first gold for China, and film director Zhang Yimou, also will remain household names.
