Xi extended New Year greetings to media representatives who were busy preparing for the Games coverage at the Main Media Center.
Staging major international sporting events such as the Winter Olympics will be an opportunity to enhance the influence of Chinese culture, the reach of news reporting and the nation's soft power, Xi noted.
