Africans don't like the Chinese?The Xi habits of life change as the reason, and it is difficult to understand across cultures
In recent years, China has made a lot of investment and cooperation in Africa, and the number of Chinese working and living in Africa is also increasing.
However, there are also reports that the African public's perception of Chinese tourists has changed from enthusiasm at the beginning, to indifference, and finally to a kind of resistance. The root cause is the changes that the Chinese have brought to the African people.
In the history of Africa, people have lived a very simple and free life, and many tribes have maintained their original primitive state. They go wherever they want, they go wherever they want, they hunt when they want to rest, and they go home when they want to rest.
For them, the meaning of life is not to make money, but to be with their families. However, as Chinese companies have created more jobs, many African workers have moved into the factories.
They have to obey orders and sleep on time, but they also have to face a series of tedious and tedious tasks. This is a world of difference from the unfettered life of Africans in the past.
And the high-density working style of the Chinese has also made their original spirit of unity slowly dissipate. In some Chinese companies, African workers work 365 days straight, often until 10 p.m. before leaving work.
This has done a great deal of damage to family ties in Africa. In the past, Africans wanted to come back to see their children whenever they wanted, but now their children are staying. Some African workers are already complaining about the Chinese plundering their jobs.
Other African countries also buy in stores in China. However, the current price of goods is dozens of times that of the past, and many African people are very dissatisfied with this.
They feel that the Chinese make money, but it does not bring benefits to the local area. Indeed, some African countries have expressed joy at the changes China has made. Their wages have increased, while also being exposed to a more modern life.
But China does bring a lot of change to the people of Africa, and this is a major factor in their disgust. The two sides need to know more and communicate in order to achieve a rapport.
The language and behavior of the African Chinese also make the locals feel very uncomfortable. Some Chinese refer to local workers as "lazy" and "inferior".
Such racist comments provoke anger and resentment among the African people. In addition, some Chinese still live a life of luxury and luxury, which is completely different from their simple life.
They drive luxury cars and live in luxurious residential areas, which gives blacks a sense of being discriminated against. In addition, due to language differences, it is difficult for Chinese to communicate with locals.
Chinese have always been alone, and it is difficult to integrate with traditional African societies. Chinese don't even say a simple hello. This creates a kind of estrangement between them.
Some Chinese companies employ only Chinese workers, with very few African workers. Even if there are African employees, their positions are low, and most of the managers are Chinese.
This has left the people of Africa feeling that they have been taken advantage of and that they have lost the opportunity to develop in their own countries. In short, everything China has done in Africa has unwittingly destroyed many African customs and Xi.
This caused discontent among the local population. To live in harmony, Chinese must learn how Xi respect African differences and Xi and customs, and treat African employees fairly. In order to be recognized and understood by the local people, it must be truly integrated with the African community.
