Supporting Foreigners With Real Solutions. So Earlier today, a foreign entrepreneur reached out in our community asking for a trusted service in Shenzhen that could translate academic degrees into Chinese and provide an official stamped translation. This is a common requirement for work permits, company registration, school applications, and other official processes in China, yet it’s often hard for foreigners to find reliable providers. Our support team responded immediately to understand her location and exact need. After checking our existing contacts in Shenzhen, we were able to recommend a verified translation company that specializes in official academic document translations accepted by Chinese authorities. Recommended Company Details: • Company Name: New World Translation • Service: Academic degree translation with official stamp • City: Shenzhen • WeChat ID: XSJHR2004 The contact was shared directly in the group so she could reach out without delays or uncertainty. This is a simple example of how the community works. When someone has a real need, we connect them to real solutions using trusted contacts. No guessing, no unnecessary back and forth, just practical help that saves time and stress. We’ll continue to support foreigners and entrepreneurs by sharing verified information and contacts that make life and business in China easier.

3 Simple Tips to Help Your Small Business Grow (No Fancy Tools Required!) 1. Focus on "micro-customers" first You don’t need to target everyone right away. Find 10-20 people who truly love your product or service, listen closely to their feedback—these folks will be your best word-of-mouth promoters. 2. Turn one-time buyers into loyal fans Send a quick follow-up message: "Hi [Name], we’re so glad you picked our [product]! If you have any tiny tweaks or thoughts, feel free to reach out anytime." A small, personal check-in goes a long way in making customers remember you. 3. "Borrow" (kindly!) from other small businesses Look at what other great small players in your space are doing—not copying their content, but learning their little winning moves: like how they chat with customers, or small packaging details that make people smile. Engagement note: "Which tip will you test first? Or do you have a hidden small business hack I missed? Drop it in the comments, or share your own tip in a post with #TalkTuesday #HafrikInsights—let’s grow together!"

Many Africans come to China hoping for a stable monthly job. The reality is different. Out of 100 people, maybe 5 get a proper role — and even that depends on passport, skills, experience and sometimes skin colour. But here’s the truth most people don’t hear early: China rewards people who open their minds, not just those looking for salary work. If you’re willing to learn, try small opportunities, build relationships and show up consistently, this place can transform your life. Whether you come as a student or a visitor, planning ahead is everything. Start testing ideas early, learn how the market works, and surround yourself with people who push themselves to grow. That’s one reason we built Hafrik — a platform helping Africans in China connect with real communities, events, businesses and opportunities. Because when you’re plugged into the right network, everything changes. If you stay open-minded, consistent and intentional, China won’t just be a place you live — it becomes a place you grow.

🇨🇳 China Tightens Rules for Influencers China is rolling out new regulations that will reshape how influencers share content online. 👉 Only those with university degrees or verified professional training can now discuss specialized topics like medicine, finance, law, education, or health. The move is part of China’s wider effort to reduce misinformation and ensure that expert advice online comes from qualified professionals. ⚠️ Influencers who ignore the rules risk: • Account suspension or permanent closure • Fines up to ¥100,000 (~$14,000) Major platforms such as Douyin (TikTok China), Weibo, and Bilibili will now verify the credentials of creators before allowing professional-topic content. 🎯 The goal: to make social media a space where credible information thrives and the public can trust what they see online. 📍 Source: The Business Magnets / official Chinese reports #China #Influencers #SocialMedia #Regulations #Douyin #Weibo #Bilibili #HafrikNews
