When the team received their surprise invitation, Time magazine called it “the ping-pong heard round the world.” The nine players, four officials, and two spouses who arrived on the Chinese mainland were the first Americans to enter China since the Communist takeover in In another example of the continuing efforts to normalize relations with China, Ling-Ling and Hsing-Hsing arrived at the National Zoo in A gift from China, the rare giant pandas attracted visitors and volunteers.
