Winning the new financial era

Chapter 657 Traveling around the world
After the trip to Nigeria, Zhang Yida and his party went to Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal and other countries that are also West African countries.

The per capita GDP of these countries is about the same as that of Nigeria, or even slightly less, only about US$2000.

The population is not large, ranging from just over 1000 million to 3000 million.

Because of the limited market potential, Transray has less than 10 Chinese employees in the local area, which looks a bit miserable and deserted.

The arrival of Zhang Yida made the local Chinese employees very happy. They didn't expect that the big boss would come to visit them in these places that don't shit.

In the best local hotel, on behalf of the company, Zhang Yida invited these pioneering employees to have a meal together, learned about the local business development, and expressed his condolences. These employees were very moved.

Zhang Yida also promised that as long as he does well, he will not hesitate to pay bonuses and stock options, and may transfer to Lagos or other prosperous cities in Africa in the future.

Most of the Chinese employees who are willing to travel to Africa also pay three times their salary, and they have a very strong sense of professionalism.

Zhang Yida's statement made them all feel like chicken blood.

After sending Zhang Yida away, he changed his previous idea of ​​muddling along and devoted himself to work wholeheartedly.

I didn't go to the local bar, and I put aside my beach vacation. They all wanted to be rated as "advanced" this year, and then embarked on the road of promotion and salary increase.

Zhang Yida and his party took a private plane and took off from Dakar Airport, the capital of Senegal, preparing to cross the Sahara Desert and head to Egypt in North Africa.

In the sky, looking at the vast desert, it was a bit shocking at first glance, but after a long time, it became a bit boring.

The Sahara is the largest desert in the world, with an area of ​​906 million square kilometers, almost the size of China.

Senegal is about 5000 kilometers away from Egypt. The plane flew at a speed of Mach 0.85, and it took nearly 5 hours to arrive at Cairo Airport, and almost half of the time was over the Sahara Desert.

There are no employees of TransRay in Egypt, but the headquarters of Sharp in North Africa, where the headquarters of Resso and Musical.ly in Africa are located.

North Africa is similar to the Middle East and West Asia. They are mainly of Arab race and believe in the Green religion. Women on the street wear veils.

Musical.ly also works cautiously in reviewing content in these areas, recruiting a large number of local employees, just because they are afraid of making trouble on religious issues.

Egypt has a population of 9700 million and a national GDP of US$2693.38 billion, second only to Nigeria and South Africa. It is the third largest economy in Africa and the largest in North Africa.

The per capita GDP is not high, just a little bit better than that of Nigeria, which is almost 2771 US dollars, and it is even more incomparable with China's 1 US dollars.

In addition to the investigation, Zhang Yida also visited the world-famous pyramids.

After staying there for two days, Zhang Yida and his party went south to Kenya, Tasania, Ethiopia and other countries in East Africa.

Here, Zhang Yida actually saw the M-Pesa agency outlets that were rumored to be miraculous.

Even Bill Gates highly praised Kenya's mobile payment, because M-Pesa has enabled a large number of poor people to enjoy convenient financial services, learn to save money, and reduce social costs, which has benefited the entire Kenyan economy.

Many countries, including India and Romania, are learning from Kenya and want to implement such a down-to-earth mobile payment in their own countries.

In Kenya, the transfer transaction volume initiated by M-Pesa can account for 80% of the country's GDP, while the data of Alipay in China is less than 6%.

With such a high market share, the development of PalmPay business under Chuanrui is very difficult.

Not only PalmPay, mobile payment companies from other countries and local start-up companies also have a headache when facing the giant M-Pesa.

Since you can't beat it, let's cooperate!
Under the recommendation of Reeves, Zhang Yida also met with M-Pesa's top management on behalf of the company, and negotiated a cooperation plan to allow the company and Investment Finance to realize international transfer and payment interoperability.

This will greatly facilitate the life of Chinese people who go to Kenya to work or start a business, and local Kenyans who go to China to do business or study abroad will also benefit from it.

Of course, these foreign exchange transfers must also comply with Chinese laws and relevant regulations. Each person's foreign exchange amount is limited every year, no more than 5 US dollars.

Moreover, the investment and financing business is also carried out jointly with the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and these businesses are carried out under the supervision of relevant departments.

Whether it is traveling abroad or studying abroad, if the amount exceeds 5 US dollars, there is suspicion of transferring property.

The rich Chinese buy properties overseas and spend recklessly. In addition to domestic guarantees and foreign loans, it is to cut off the profits of their overseas registered companies.

If the money is not remitted back to the country, it will naturally not be subject to foreign exchange supervision.

Including Zhang Yida, there are also a large number of companies registered overseas, and the profits have not flowed back to China.

This is not for the convenience of running away one day, but mainly for the convenience of overseas capital operations.

……

The news of the establishment of the "Wakanda Fund" spread quickly, and even Kenya knew about it.

Zhang Yida guessed that it must have been spread by Nigerian officials with big mouths.

But he wasn't angry either. If you're investing, if you don't come up with some gimmicks, who would know you?

The Kenyan government attaches great importance to education and financial technology including mobile payment. Therefore, under the repeated invitation of the local government, Zhang Yida decided to give a public lecture at the University of Nairobi, the capital, with the theme of "African Opportunities in the Background of Technological Entrepreneurship".

Jack Ma also gave a speech at Nairobi University two years ago, which attracted a large number of Kenyan university students and young entrepreneurs to participate.

Zhang Yida's reputation in the world is not weaker than that of Jack Ma. Africans admire him just because he is a shareholder of Transsion.

Transsion is a well-known brand among Africans, and its advertising slogans are plastered all over the streets and alleys of Africa.

An African may not know Ahri, Penguin, and Ruixiang, but he must know about Transsion.

Zhang Yida doesn't play those nonsense, saying that he will train 10 African entrepreneurial heroes in 100 years and bring 200 African entrepreneurs to Lin'an for training.

Zhang Yida directly talked about the shortcomings of Africa's current Internet infrastructure.

He has visited so many African countries along the way, and has a clearer understanding of the Internet situation in each country.

Neither praise nor belittle too much, and analyze the real problems objectively and objectively.

Zhang Yida also compared many domestic technological models, such as financial technology including mobile payment, and local life including takeaway.

Zhang Yida also emphasized that it took China 20 years to bring the Internet to where it is today.

And African entrepreneurs must also have the spirit of perseverance and deeply cultivate the market in order to usher in the final harvest.

Some little blacks showed displeasure, and Zhang Yida almost said that the African Internet was useless, which made it difficult for them to accept.

There are also some down-to-earth young entrepreneurs who feel that Zhang Yida is very insightful in seeing problems to the point.

In the end, Zhang Yida moved out the Wakanda Fund, directly stating that this fund with an initial size of 1 million US dollars was invested in the entire African market.

Entrepreneurs with ideas can browse the official website of the Wakanda Fund after a while, and send the business plan to the mailbox of the Wakanda Fund.

As long as the project is good and has investment value, the Wakanda Fund will definitely help these entrepreneurs to establish their own "Wakanda Business Kingdom".

The audience finally ushered in a climax, and everyone was very excited.

These people are all high-level intellectuals. They have basically seen the movie "Black Panther", and they all aspire to become African heroes and build their own country into prosperity.

Zhang Yida's Wakanda fund is very suitable for them. It feels like accepting the investment of the Wakanda fund will start their own epic road.

After leaving Kenya, Zhang Yida took Zhao Erya to Tanzania. Every June is a good time to watch the great migration of grassland animals in East Africa.

The army of millions of animals ran over the vast prairie, the scene, the momentum, I was excited just thinking about it.

　The chapter on Africa is coming to an end soon, and I won’t write any more.This book talked about the entrepreneurial ecology of Southeast Asia and India before, so I want to talk about Africa and Latin America, and basically the whole world has also mentioned it.

　　At this stage of development, it is impossible for the company to stay in the country.

　　After checking a lot of information, it seems that everyone is not very interested, and it feels a bit useless.

　　There are still some foreshadowings in the country. If the pit is buried, it is planned to finish the book.

　　Finally, I would like to thank you all. Basically, I have not asked for votes. If you have votes, please vote and strive to complete the goal of 5000 accumulated monthly tickets before the end of this book.
