- Number 8 facts
In China when people choose landline telephone numbers, mobile numbers, house numbers, car identification numbers and important dates, 8 is usually the first choice. - In the 1990s, a vehicle identification number with 8 was auctioned for 5 million Hong Kong dollars.
- When two 8s are combined to make 88 that is said to be an even more fortunate number to have. It is often used on the doors of newly married couples to bring them luck in their union together.
- The popularity of 8 was obvious in relation to the Beijing Olympic Games, which commenced at exactly eight o’clock at eight minutes past the hour, on the eighth day of the eighth month in 2008. It immediately became apparent to the world the planned date had special significance for the people of China, and that they had chosen to open the event on a date and at a time that would be particularly fortuitous for them.
