@@@ China approved the deal after 13 years of negotiations with Universal. The Beijing park has no definite opening date, but state-run media predicts 2019.

"Universal Beijing will create a higher level of economic growth, understanding and cultural exchange between our two countries," Universal Parks CEO Tom Williams said in a release. "Together, we will create a unique experience that spotlights hugely popular Western entertainment concepts as well as China's rich cultural legacy. This will be an opportunity to build relationships with the Chinese people on a direct and personal level."

Universal didn't specify what attractions the park will feature, but popular franchises such as "Harry Potter," "Despicable Me" and "Transformers" are good bets. "Transformers: Age of Extinction" broke box-office records in China this summer.

"Universal Beijing will showcase blockbuster movie themes and present entertaining family shows that will highlight the very best of popular culture," Beijing Tourism Group Chairman Duan Qiang said.

The Beijing park will include a Universal CityWalk entertainment complex with nightlife, restaurants and shopping. It will also feature the first-ever Universal-themed resort hotel.

"It will be a tourism crown jewel, not only for Beijing but for all of China, bringing extraordinary entertainment experiences to the Chinese people and to our guests from around the world. In bringing Universal to China, we will also share the best of China with the world," Qiang said.

Universal has parks in Japan, Singapore, Los Angles and Orlando, Florida. Walt Disney Parks and Resorts already has a Disneyland Resort in Hong Kong and will open another Disneyland park in Shanghai next year.

-A 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride and 26.2-mile run composes an Ironman triathlon, one of the most difficult sporting events in the world, one that can easily take athletes 17 hours to compete.聽

-Tina Ament will be one of more than 2,000 athletes competing in the 140-mile Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii on Saturday. With a few Ironman triathlons under her belt already, Ament will make record books before she even starts the championship race: Ament is the first blind American woman to attempt to compete in the Ironman Championships.
-"My life isn't going to be the same anymore," Ament told NBC's Peter Alexander on TODAY. "This is a game-changer. It's not just signing up for another Ironman race, it's huge."

-Video: More than 2,000 of the world鈥檚 greatest athletes will compete in a 140-mile triathlon at the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii, on Saturday. Among those will be Tina Ament, who isn鈥檛 letting her blindness stop her. NBC鈥檚 Peter Alexander reports.
-Ament is one of five physically challenged athletes chosen to compete in the Ironman World Championship this year. A federal prosecutor from Alexandria, Viriginia, Ament suffers from a retinal degenerative disease that caused her to lose the majority of her eye sight; today she says she can only distinguish some light and shadows. 聽
+"Universal Beijing will showcase blockbuster movie themes and present entertaining family&nbsp;shows that will highlight the very best of popular culture," Beijing Tourism Group Chairman Duan Qiang said.<br>
-"I'm not going to beat most of them," Ament said of her competition, which includes some of the most physically fit athletes in the world. "But I want to be in their company. I want to swim like one of them, bike like I'm one of them, run like I'm one of them."
-Ament wasn't always active, however. She says she ate poorly and didn't exercise until a former boss, a federal judge, inspired her to get healthy. And Ament hasn't stopped since, taking on one Ironman after another.
+The Beijing park will include a Universal CityWalk entertainment complex with nightlife, restaurants and shopping. It will also feature the first-ever Universal-themed resort hotel.<br>
-Her training and competition wouldn't be possible without Ament's trusted aide, Anne Thilgis , who is always by Ament's side when she's swimming, biking and running, serving in essence as Ament's eyes, alerting her to curves, hills and any obstructions that might emerge in a training or competition course.
-"She's courageous beyond words," Thilgis said of Ament. "If she decides she's going to do something, she's going to figure a way to do it."
+"It&nbsp;will be a tourism crown jewel,&nbsp;not only for Beijing but for all of China, bringing extraordinary entertainment experiences to&nbsp;the Chinese people and to our guests from around the world. In bringing Universal to China,&nbsp;we will also share the best of China with the world," Qiang said.<br>
-The main takeaway of her competition, Ament said, is to "never give up on your dreams. Even if they seem very hard, or impossible. Whatever it is, and no matter how hard it is, or how hard you have to work to get to it, don't give up."<p>Related Articles:</p><ul><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>Sac Louis vuitton</a></li><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>LOUIS VUITTON Site Officiel</a></li><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>LOUIS VUITTON Homme</a></li></ul>
