As a bridge connecting the friendship between China and Africa, Nigeria Yongxing Steel Company has always adhered to the concept of "people-oriented and common development". Among them, the China tour of outstanding Nigerian employees is an important measure carefully planned by the company to deepen employees' understanding of Chinese culture and promote team cohesion and sense of belonging. Every 2-3 years, this event will come as scheduled, bringing a spiritual baptism and sublimation to Nigerian employees.
In 2024, the third batch of outstanding Nigerian employees of Nigeria Yongxing Steel Company will travel to China. This is not only a trip across borders, but also a journey of the soul. This trip started from the thousand-year-old capital Beijing, crossed the prosperous city Shanghai, and then to the quaint Fuzhou, and finally arrived in the vibrant Guangdong. Along the way, the outstanding Nigerian employees personally experienced China's 5,000-year historical and cultural heritage and the prosperous charm of modern cities.
In Fuzhou, the outstanding Nigerian employees had the honor to visit the group headquarters. Mr. Lin Qiantao, Chairman of Qunfeng Investment Group, and Mr. Wang Quanfa, Executive Deputy General Manager of Yongxing Company of Nigeria, met with them in person and expressed their warm welcome. This is not only an affirmation of their work achievements, but also an expectation for their future career development. At the welcome party, the outstanding Nigerian employees spoke freely and shared what they saw and heard in Beijing and Shanghai. They were shocked by China's development speed and proud of China's achievements. At the same time, they also felt the company's high recognition and expectations of them, which made them more determined to contribute to the development of the company. During the tour, the outstanding Nigerian employees went deep into the streets and alleys to explore the mysteries of Chinese culture. They visited ancient temples and monuments, and felt the thickness and splendor of ancient Chinese culture; they tasted traditional Chinese food, experienced traditional Chinese festivals and folk activities, and felt the breadth and depth of Chinese culture. In the exchanges with the Chinese, they not only felt the enthusiasm and hospitality of the Chinese people, but also had a deep understanding of China's lifestyle, values and habits, and experienced the unique charm of Chinese culture. This trip to China not only gave the excellent Nigerian employees a deeper understanding of China, but also gave them a new understanding of the company's development. They deeply realized that China's rapid development and strong innovation are exactly what the company pursues. At the same time, they also saw the company's important position and development prospects in the global steel industry. This made them more determined to develop together with the company and willing to contribute more to the company's development.
Finally, we would like to thank the colleagues at the domestic group headquarters and the logistics department of Nigeria Yongxing Steel Company for their hard work and full support. It is because of their efforts that this trip to China for excellent Nigerian employees can be carried out smoothly and successfully.
This is a journey, but also a spiritual sublimation. Through this trip to China, the excellent Nigerian employees not only gained knowledge and broadened their horizons, but also buried their love and admiration for Chinese culture in their hearts. They will start a new journey at a new starting point with a brand-new attitude, breathe and share the same fate with the company, and jointly write a new chapter in China-Africa friendship.
