How many cities with a population of more than 1.000.000
are there in
China? you didnt think that maybe you could plus a 0 after 1,000,000. You know, China has a population more than 1,200,000,000, almost 1/5 of the human beings on the earth. So in some big cities, you must be able to know 'how' many so as to ramble on the streets. And in my mind, the nunber that the city hold a population of more than 1,000,000 may be from 34 to37 or so, just as Shanghai, Peking, Guangzhou,Xian, and so on. Among them, there are 3 cities with a population of more than 10 million, Shanghai 13million, Peking 11million and Chongqing 30million(It has large area of suburb region). All these doesn't include the migratory people but includes the human beings of the suburb towns. How many of them do have a professional football club?
How big is the audience in the stadiums?
How ist the TV situation, how many channels?
How is football (re)presented on TV?
