In the mean time, driven by cultural consciousness and symbolic politics, symbols containing the value view of “One Family of the Chinese Nation” kept aggregating; the Chinese national community awareness was highlighted and intensified through special arrangements such as opening cere-monies, emblems, competition systems, and official discourse. China should control and fully utilize various sym-bols, forge the Chinese national community awareness with the help of the holding of the National Minorities Games, and then establish an international sports culture system and ecological space with Chinese discourse.
