Storyline: Chinese manufacturers score big orders for 15th National Games merchandise [Voice_over] During China's 15th National Games in Hong Kong-Macao and Guangdong Province, local souvenir and toy companies have been working around the clock to meet demand for game related products. A large majority of those products originate here- Dongguan city- known as the country's "capital of art toys" and home to roughly 4,000 toy-production enterprises and nearly 1,500 upstream and downstream factories. One of those toy firms has launched 60 products related to the games' mascots- two Chinese white dolphins named Xiyangyang and Lerongrong. The company says a surge in orders has led to double workloads for employees. [Sound_bite] Jiang Xinping, lead, toy company: "Total sales of 15th National Games related products is up to over one million U.S. dollars. Orders are likely to be scheduled until next month. So, employees are working 24 hours a day." [Voice_over] Dongguan produces about 85 percent of the nation's art toys, as well as a quarter of global anime merchandise. Data shows that the city's art toy revenue for last year was more than three billion U.S. dollars. [Restrictions: No access Chinese mainland]
