There is a question on the Us version of Zhihu: Do Africans really think That China cares about them? Unexpectedly, the African netizens answered are quite consistent, read their answers, have to say that the African netizens are sober in the world.

 African netizen TruisticTunic26 replied: They don't, they only come for business and do not interfere in internal affairs. What about a coup? Then China will only do business with the new government. But what about being associated with the United States? Oh, 20 years of sanctions like what happened in my country. One thing I like about the Chinese is that they do not interfere in internal affairs, and they are more honest than offering thousands of things for free. If the aid were so good, Haiti would be the richest country in the world, not a failed country.

 Peter Kenneth Enduti, an African graduate of Strathmore School, replied: No! We think that China does not care about us. China doesn't pretend to care about us.

 The West pretended to care for us and brought aid with strings attached. The restructuring plan devastated our economy in the 90s. Health assistance is associated with the establishment of military bases. The West supported the tyrants who killed its people.

 African netizen Njeri Akenga replied: China gives Africa what we need, in exchange, we give them what they want. It is a mutual relationship, not using Africa and pretending to care for the African people. As an African, it is a mutually beneficial relationship for both sides. It can be said that, although even in China, we must keep our eyes open and leave some good things for ourselves, rather than selling our souls to China.

 The innocent Massengo, a lecturer in language and communication at McCreree University, replied: I am an African. That's exactly what I think. China doesn't care about Africa at all. No others, either. Everyone from outside of Africa cares about their own interests. The problem is, a lot of people are hypocrites. They dress up their interests in multi-colored coats. That's why I love China. Among all the uncompromising damans, China is as open to its own interests as daylight. They will tell you that they are here for business, that's all. If you want to kill each other, they will wait for the winner to start from where they stop. You want to bribe them with a contract, and the question is "how much".

 The African netizen David Dasa replied: No. Because China is not our mother. What do you think is all about international relations? Make friends and sing kumbaya songs? Sorry to break your dream, it's not. Everyone on the international stage is for what will interest them.

 In geopolitics, these guys eat you. No one came to the power game looking find friends. I'm definitely not the "Down with the West," but I'm really surprised how many Westerners see their country as generous, benevolent angels, and the fact that the West has been the most brutal players in the game over the centuries.

 So when we see China providing agreements to African countries, no one sees these as acts of selfless sacrifice. Everyone thinks that this is the partnership. China has goals to achieve and seeks to spread the influence of Chinese companies around the world. The African countries need the infrastructure. We team up because of our interest. I don't know why it would be surprising.

 China is not our mother. The fact that China does not care about how we manage our country also shows that it is a partner who likes to manage its own affairs well. Bilateral relations are formed because of interests. NATO exists because of the interest. On the international stage, there are no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.

'No, Africans don't think China doesn't care about them.'China doesn't care about us. Actually, no country cares about us. They care about us as much as any other country. America, France, England, everyone else.

 The Chinese differ from any other country in their honesty. They don't appear in a more sacred manner than you. They come to do business, in a mutually beneficial business. This may not be fair, but it's clear: you get a power dam or a road, and we get oil or uranium.

 Some came up with aid and 1,000 strings attached. We don't need any assistance, we need a business. If aid leads to development, Africa will be the most developed region. Aid is a curse.

 Michael Zheng, a Chinese netizen living in New York, replied: I am not an African and I have never been to Africa, but what I know is: no African or anyone else needs charity. We would rather work hard to buy what we need than someone it to us as a charity in the name of caring.

 Why give myself mercy and charity when I have the ability to make money fairly? China and Africa are cooperative and trading. Chinese and companies work hard to make money and then use the money to buy things around the world.

 The African countries have abundant resources. They sell the resources to people who want to buy them, and then use the money to buy things and expand. It's that simple.

 Middle Eastern countries have been selling oil to the world for some time.

 Why has no one ever asked if the Middle East is being taken advantage of, and if buyers are "stealing" their natural resources? What's the difference between people here? Just because African countries are not rich now doesn't mean they will never be rich. Not long ago, China was selling its resources, such as wood, oil, rare earth elements, and manpower, rather than products. Now see where they are.

 Don't project your limitations onto others. I think all Africans ask for an opportunity. Their work ethic and their brain will deal with the rest. Good luck to my brothers and sisters!

 Lin Weipei, a graduate of finance and Chinese literature, replied: I'm a Chinese. That's not a question I want to answer. Many African friends say that China does not care what happens in Africa. What they come to Africa they do business. This is true. I want to say why the Chinese government and the Chinese people do not really care about politics but only care about business.

 This is because China does not want the rest of the world to care about itself. Since my first modern history lesson in middle school, I have been taught that it is very impolite to interfere in other countries. Abroad, we Chinese should not comment on the internal affairs of other countries. This is not polite. In return, China wants the rest of the world, especially the West, not to interfere in Taiwan and Tibet affairs because they are China's internal affairs. Business is a business.

 This is also a good thing for the whole world, as China gave up exporting the revolution to other countries.

Although we Chinese people are more concerned about Africa's markets and resources, most Chinese people still want Africa to get better and better. In our history book, the African people are "old friends" of the Chinese people. As both third world countries, we have had a similar history of aggression and oppression by the imperialist powers. We will all stand up on our own, not on the cheap and troublesome things.
