Chapter 798: 793. This Is What a Huaxia Entrepreneur Is (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

The protocol here was still very high-level; after Zhang Ran arrived, almost all the major leaders were in attendance.

The press and media swarmed in; media from countries like Huaxia, the United States, and others were all present.

Although Zhang Ran remains frighteningly low-key, this is merely his personal demeanor; not a single thing he has done is low-key.

Coupled with his own legendary status, many people want to understand Zhang Ran and interview him.

Currently, Zhang Ran has only accepted one personal interview on CCTV, and everyone is becoming increasingly interested in this rather legendary super-rich man.

Especially as one event after another is dug up, more and more media outlets are becoming interested in Zhang Ran.

In countries that can be considered centers of civilization, such as Huaxia, the United States, and those in Europe, one can find traces of Zhang Ran; he has a presence in many industries within these countries.

Just thinking about this is somewhat terrifying; it is truly hard to imagine what kind of person Zhang Ran was back then, and the industries he laid out have radiated incomparable brilliance over these past few decades.

"Mr. Zhang, hello."

"Mr. President, hello."

The two sides shook hands, and immediately a group of reporters began taking photos, the blinding camera flashes blinking incessantly.

However, it soon quieted down.

Subsequently, the two sides held a detailed discussion regarding some investment matters and the development situation in South Africa.

In this regard, Zhang Ran discovered that the people here in South Africa did not seem to be just going through the motions, but truly had such intentions.

Zhang Ran had originally intended to just say a few words and brush them off to get it over with, as the subsequent matters would need to wait until things here were concluded before being discussed.

However, seeing them like this, Zhang Ran thought for a moment and became a bit more serious.

"I am not very familiar with the specific situation in South Africa, but in the end, it is all more or less the same; our Huaxia also came up from this stage."

In this respect, South Africa can draw on our Huaxia's experience.

South Africa's geographical environment is not bad, and the population is not very sparse; it has an abundant labor force, all of which are South Africa's advantages."

"Mr. Zhang, could you elaborate?" The other side revealed an interested expression; he also saw that Zhang Ran seemed to truly have the intention to provide some guidance.

If it were someone else, people wouldn't care so much, but this is Zhang Ran; the more people know about him, the more they realize the formidable nature of this person.

Zhang Ran said: "I'll give an example, for instance, in the fields of energy and new energy. I know that everyone's impression of energy is that it is high-tech, but in reality, if you think about it from another angle, many things actually do not require such high technology, and one can also introduce advanced technology from other countries."

"South Africa's average annual sunshine duration is nearly 2,500 hours, which is the most abundant solar energy in the world. If solar energy can be vigorously developed, it would be of great benefit to the country's electricity usage."

"And this is not just about electricity, but also other forms of energy. As far as I know, Huaxia currently has sufficient experience and technology in the utilization of solar and wind energy."

The meaning of Zhang Ran's words was very clear: that in this regard, they could fully cooperate with Huaxia.

This was also key-recorded by the Xinhua News Agency reporter, and it would definitely be highlighted in the Huaxia news later.

At the same time, the sense of identification with Zhang Ran was also greatly strengthened; this is the kind of businessman who comes out of Huaxia, doing everything possible to contribute to the country's development.

Others were not ignorant, and everyone was actually considering what Zhang Ran said, but wanting to truly launch it on a large scale involved many issues.

Zhang Ran only touched upon this issue briefly, then said: "The second point I feel is actually manufacturing. No matter which country it is, manufacturing is actually extremely important."

"Even for the current United States and Europe, although manufacturing has decreased, they also developed starting from here."

"Manufacturing plays a vital role in a country's economic development. To say nothing else, just the jobs it can provide is a factor that cannot be ignored."

"If a country wants to develop rapidly, it must make its citizens wealthy; only then can it promote consumption and the development of all walks of life."

"Although it is said that there are many industries that are actually better than manufacturing, in reality, if you look at South Africa's current stage comprehensively, only manufacturing—and specifically low-end manufacturing—is the most suitable."

"Many industries require high-end knowledge. If you want to get involved in high-end industries all at once, I won't say much else, but is South Africa's talent reserve sufficient?"

"Sometimes, aiming too high is not a good thing; things must be done step by step."

By the time he finished speaking, Zhang Ran had become quite earnest.

However, many people had somewhat strange expressions in their eyes, but they soon felt relieved.

The two points Zhang Ran raised were actually related to Huaxia. Not to mention new energies like solar power, just speaking of manufacturing alone—

Once South Africa begins to prepare to vigorously develop manufacturing, who is the most suitable partner?

Of course, it is Huaxia!

"Huaxia Manufacturing" is no joke; whether it is for learning or cooperation, this is the best choice.

And the most important point is that what Zhang Ran said was not aimless, but based on facts and evidence. Upon careful consideration, one finds these are all feasible methods.

Especially since Huaxia developed step by step relying on manufacturing, the speed was simply shocking.

The current Huaxia manufacturing industry can be said to have laid a deep foundation for Huaxia's rise. Not only that, it also provided experience and various talents for the subsequent development of other high-tech industries.

As for South Africa imitating or even surpassing Huaxia?

Let's not joke; no one would believe that.

Not to mention the issue of population, which absolutely cannot be ignored, the citizens' mindset and quality alone are an insurmountable chasm.

People in Huaxia, after earning money, choose to save it and choose various other forms of consumption to improve their lives.

And they do not stop working just because they have earned money; on the contrary, the more they earn, the harder they work.

If such a situation were placed in South Africa, it would likely be the exact opposite.

Therefore, if South Africa really begins to vigorously develop manufacturing, the one who will truly profit is still Huaxia.

Of course, South Africa will definitely also gain great benefits from it, but wanting to replicate Huaxia's experience is absolutely impossible.

Zhang Ran did not hide or hold back any of what he said; as long as one thinks about it a little, one can understand it, but what he said were all facts.
