Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee, at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing on Tuesday.

Xi said that China is all set to deliver a simple, safe and splendid Winter Olympics.

Xi noted that everything is ready for the Beijing Winter Olympics following more than six years of preparations.

Nearly 3,000 athletes from about 90 countries and regions will compete at the Beijing Olympics, scheduled to open on Feb 4.

Xi said that in conformity with the "athletes-centered" concept, China has spared no efforts in the construction of venues and infrastructure as well as services for the Games.

China is confident of ensuring the safety of all Games participants, relevant personnel and the Chinese people, he added.

Xi said by holding the Games China aims to engage 300 million people in winter sports and it has now become a reality.

The 2022 Winter Olympics has also boosted the development of winter sports industry in China, he said.

Bach thanked China for the excellent and smooth preparatory work for the Games, saying that he is fully confident that the 2022 Winter Olympics will be a safe, smooth and successful event.

The IOC chief also hailed China's fulfillment of engaging 300 million people in winter sports as an unprecedented achievement.

Bach said this will be a great contribution to the Chinese people and the Olympic Movement as well.
