Reborn multinational giant - Chapter 850

When Fang zhe left the United Nations Africa headquarters, a large group of people, including Eric, director of the United Nations Environment Programme, and Mu Suya, executive director, personally saw him off at the door.

When the motorcade left the United Nations Park, Fang zhe also glanced at a sapling on the lawn in the distance.

That tree was a palm tree planted by Fang zhe himself under the witness of everyone.

This tree will also be the witness of Fang Zhe’s visit to the United Nations headquarters in Africa and another interesting scenery in the United Nations park.

That evening, accompanied by Adan Mohamed, Minister of industry and trade cooperation of Kenya, Fang zhe met with President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya.

Kenyatta, the son of Kenyan founding president Jomo Kenyatta, has been in power for four years. Kenyatta is quite enthusiastic about Fang Zhe’s arrival.

In the early evening, outside the presidential residence in the central urban area of Nairobi, the hospitable Kenyatta personally went to the door to meet Fang Zhe.

After the warm embrace, Kenyatta invited Fang Zhe to dinner.

“Mr. Fang Zhe, I’ve heard a lot about you.

I didn’t expect that you would like to come to Africa, a poor and backward place! ”

At the dinner, Kenyatta’s straightforward self-evaluation of Africa made Fang zhe laugh.

“President, you are joking. In my opinion, Africa is a place full of hope and opportunities, just like China before reform and opening up.” Fang zhe interpreted Africa from another angle.

Kenyatta smiled and waved his hand: “you businessmen always have unique vision. No wonder you can become the richest man in the world so young. When I was your age, I was still studying in the United States.

However, perhaps the whole of Africa is like before China’s reform and opening up, but a single African country can hardly compare with China at that time.

For example, Kenya has neither much population nor much natural resources. It is difficult to become a developed, rich and powerful country! ”

Fang zhe didn’t worry about answering Kenyatta’s words. He thought for a while and said:

“Many countries in the world have similarities. For example, South Korea, Japan and other countries separated by a strip of water from China are also resource shortage countries. Although they have a large population, they also faced the same development dilemma as Kenya decades ago.

But now, these two countries have become world famous developed countries and world powers. President, how do you think they have developed? ”

Fang zhe asked Kenyatta this question. He thought about it and couldn’t think of an accurate answer.

After a moment, Kenyatta replied vaguely: “I think they seized the opportunity of American support during the cold war. Just like Europe, it can recover quickly and become a developed country under the influence of the American Marshall Plan.

Of course, it also has the influence of their national policies and talents.

Frankly speaking, I can’t say it accurately because I have limited knowledge of the history of your East Asian countries. ”

Fang zhe smiled and praised: “president, you know a lot. The Marshall plan has helped Europe’s revival and rise.

South Korea and Japan have become today’s developed countries because of the support of the United States and their own efforts.

These two countries are both foreign trade countries, and the United States was their largest export market before. It was not until recent years that they were replaced by China. ”

When Fang zhe said this, Kenyatta stared into Fang Zhe’s eyes. He was guessing the meaning of Fang Zhe’s words.

Fang zhe said bluntly: “the world can see the rise of China. Many experts and scholars predict that China will surpass the United States and become the world’s first power.

China’s huge population and market have given other countries huge development opportunities, just as the United States was to Europe, South Korea, Japan and other countries.

Any country can take off by taking advantage of China’s development momentum.

China China obvious to people in one belt, one road to Kenya, is one of China’s most important partners in Africa.

Soon after, one belt, one road project, the Inner Mongolia railway will be completed. You will see the benefits and benefits of the railway for the economic development of Kenya as a whole.

So I think, President, if you really want to develop Kenya into a prosperous and powerful developed country, strengthening cooperation with China will be one of the most effective ways and means. ”

Kenyatta hesitated. Behind Fang Zhe’s status as the world’s richest man, it is not surprising that he tried to persuade himself and Kenya to strengthen cooperation with China.

In fact, Kenyatta does hope Kenya can hold China’s thigh, but:

“In fact, I have always hoped to strengthen the cooperation between Kenya and China, but we in Kenya want no resources and no population. Even if I want to strengthen the cooperation with you and China, there are no good methods and measures.”

Fang zhe smiled:

China China attaches great importance to one belt, one road plan. You and Kenya can take the initiative to become the model of Africa in this plan. Besides the Inner Mongolia railway, many domestic infrastructure projects in Kenya can also be co operated with China.

In addition, you and Kenya should also show their support for China in the voice of international public opinion, the United Nations and other international cooperation.

Since ancient times, China has the virtue of a drop of grace as a fountain. If Kenya can firmly stand with China and let China’s senior leaders see Kenya’s support for China, then China will certainly give Kenya more returns and thanks.

In the past, China was not strong enough, and many of China’s allies and partners could only find their way from left to right and scruple the attitude of the United States.

Now, as China becomes stronger and stronger, both China’s support for its allies and their support for China should become more and more firm and more. ”

Kenyatta was thoughtful, but even Fang zhe could see the hesitation and indecision on his face.

No matter how powerful China described in Fang Zhe’s mouth, we can’t deny that the most powerful country in the world today is the United States.

The United States is the world police. It has stronger strength than China in military, economy, science and technology, diplomacy and other aspects.

Regardless of the interests of the United States and simply holding China’s thighs, it is likely that there will be demonstrations, civil strife and color revolution in Kenya in a few days.

When Kenyatta hesitated, Fang zhe made a final admonition:

“In my opinion, risks and opportunities coexist in both business and governance. As the forefront of the Cold War confrontation with the Soviet Union, South Korea, Japan and other countries have won the support of the United States.

Rising China must also be most grateful to its friends who helped it when it needed it most. I hope you, President, can think clearly and make the choice that is most suitable for you and the Kenyan people. “
