Now let’s do some business

Salaam aleekum frères, nanga def? Been here twelve years and still learning from younger traders coming through. The ones who ask questions, who listen, who take time to understand the market - they're the ones who stay. If you're thinking about this business, find someone patien

Honestly this place can feel lonely sometimes bruv, but I met this guy at the fabric market last week and we've been chatting about business since. How do you lot usually make friends out here, through work or other ways?

New in China? Don't let a scam be your welcome gift 🚨

Many of us learned these the hard way. Here's what to watch for:

1️⃣ "Agents" who want a big deposit before you've seen the house. View it in person, and only pay against a signed contract.
2️⃣ Suppliers whose prices are far below everyone else's. Visit the shop or factory, or use a trusted agent, before you pay.
3️⃣ Anyone offering a "special visa" or work permit shortcut. Only trust official channels.
4️⃣ Strangers asking you to receive money or parcels for them. Say no.
5️⃣ Fake currency exchange deals on WeChat. Use banks or trusted platforms.
6️⃣ Pressure to "pay now or lose the deal." Real deals can wait a day.

When in doubt, ask people who live here. On Hafrik you can check a business or ask your city Space before you send a single yuan.

Stay safe, and share this with someone new 🙏

Who is a stranger ? I believe you will be quick to answer “someone you don’t know. “

As I go about my daily activities, this thought of who a stranger is hit me hard , I notice a stranger is someone who is not suppose to be in your life . And I wondered how many things and people are presently on our lives that we’re not suppose to be .

In this context , That you don’t know know someone doesn’t necessarily mean the person is a stranger . who knows may he /she have to be in your life . You never can tell.

I pray and hope we will be guided in all we do so we don’t fall in the hands of strangers
Shalom

I am Onyekachim Frank Eyiuche, popularly known as Kachi, the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Bellence Technologies Inc. My journey with Bellence represents more than entrepreneurship. It reflects my passion for engineering, my curiosity about how technology works, and my determination to build something meaningful that can grow beyond me.

I have always been interested in understanding things from the inside out. Whether it involves writing code, studying blockchain infrastructure, exploring cybersecurity, developing business concepts, or working on technical production systems, I am driven by the desire to understand problems deeply and find ways to solve them. I do not want to limit myself to one industry when there are opportunities to connect different fields through technology and innovation.

That mindset shapes my role at Bellence. I am responsible for the broader vision, strategic direction, and business development of the company. I work across ideas, technology, research, operations, and venture development, looking at how individual projects can become sustainable businesses within a larger ecosystem. For me, leadership is not simply about holding a title. It is about taking responsibility for the vision, making difficult decisions, identifying opportunities, and continuing to build even when the results are not immediately visible.

Bellence Technologies Inc. has roots dating back to 2017, with formal incorporation in 2025. What began as an entrepreneurial vision has developed into a broader ambition to build a multi-industry technology group operating across software engineering, fintech, blockchain, event production, electrical and technical engineering, and other areas where innovation can create practical value.

Through Bellence, I am also developing an ecosystem of ventures, including Arvotix Productions, our gaming production subsidiary. Every venture represents an opportunity to explore a different market, develop specialised solutions, and create value while contributing to the wider direction of the group.

My approach is hands-on, analytical, and forward-looking. I enjoy working behind the scenes, studying systems, refining ideas, researching opportunities, and thinking about how things can be built better. I understand that meaningful progress takes time, and I believe the strongest businesses are built through a combination of technical knowledge, discipline, sound strategy, collaboration, and consistent execution.

My ambition for Bellence is to build a company that does not depend on a single idea, industry, or market. I want to develop a strong foundation from Nigeria, build valuable ventures, create opportunities for talented people, and expand into international markets as our capabilities grow.

Ultimately, my position at Bellence is deeply connected to what I am trying to build. I am not simply interested in starting a company; I am interested in developing an enduring technology group, establishing systems that can operate and grow sustainably, and turning ideas into businesses that create measurable value.

I am Kachi, the founder and strategic architect behind Bellence Technologies Inc., building at the intersection of engineering, technology, and entrepreneurship with a vision that extends far beyond the present.

I return under the sun
And one thing is sure .
Everyone is in prison one way or the other . Your perspective is what changes this reality .

The greatest prison is to be a prison of your mind and your past . Dont be so much bound in these two that you can’t even move on.
Be Inspired

Relationships and marriages are not business deals.
Love isn't a transaction, and commitment shouldn't come with a list of conditions. Unconditional love means choosing each other beyond what can be gained.

Live Stream = Illegal Working?
Making money from live streams in China as a foreigner?
It's possible.
🚫 However, most foreign influencers are doing it illegally.
Tourist visa, student visa, Q1 family visa — NONE let you work.
Live streaming for money IS work, according to Article 41 of the Exit & Entry Law.
What happens if you get caught?
• ¥5,000 - ¥20,000 fine
• 5-15 days detention
• Deportation
• 1-5 YEAR entry ban
💰 You also MUST pay Chinese taxes.
All income from streams in China is China-source income.
Tax rate: 20%-40% on labor payments.
Platforms must withhold tax — but if they don't, it's still YOUR problem.
🏢 You can't register as a solo business.
Foreigners can't be 个体户 (individual proprietors).
MCN companies have foreign investment restrictions too.
✅ 3 steps to do it legally:
-Get a Z visa + work permit
-Sign with a licensed platform or MCN
-Let them handle your tax withholding
Don't risk your life in China over a side hustlem

Saw this on one of my favorite content creators In China.

What’s it like working in China ?
Living and working in China has been one of the most interesting chapters of my life—but it’s also taught me that there isn’t one “China experience.”

As a PE teacher and content creator, I get to experience things I never imagined: teaching in a different education system, adapting to new environments, building relationships, taking care of my health and recovery, and even exploring business opportunities through factory visits.

But I’ve also learned that what you see online is only one side of the story.
This carousel gives you a glimpse into my experience working and living in China—the opportunities, the challenges, and some of the things I wish more people considered before making the move.

And if you want the full story, I filmed an entire week of my life as a PE teacher in China—from the classroom to the gym, school life, recovery, meetings, and everything happening in between.

China’s New Exit-Entry Rules Take Effect September 15, 2026 – What Foreigners Need to Know

China’s State Council has issued new Regulations on Exit and Entry Administration (Order No. 841). They come into force on 15 September 2026.

Key changes for foreigners:

• Providing false materials or making false statements on a visa or entry application can now result in a 1–5 year entry ban.

• Common violations include: fake invitation letters, falsified education/work documents, concealing a previous stay in China, or claiming tourism when the real purpose is business/work.

• Anyone who issues a false invitation letter or supporting documents can be fined RMB 5,000–10,000 (individuals) or RMB 10,000–50,000 (companies), plus confiscation of illegal profits.

• Immigration consultants and visa agents in China face stricter registration and heavier penalties (fines, suspension, or licence revocation).

The rules mainly codify existing practices and close loopholes. Ordinary tourists and genuine business travellers following the rules should not be affected.

Stay accurate, avoid fake documents, and apply for the correct visa category.

Sourcing from the Chinese market can be overwhelming, just like when I thought I'd found a product that perfectly suited my business this week. Found a factory, negotiated prices... then remembered to check the quality
Haraka haraka, here's the lesson: Never rush. No matter how great the offer sounds or looks, slow down, inspect the product. I saw an item I wanted that had a tempting price tag but a sampling check showed it wasn't up to par with the desired quality.
So, as we continue to source our products, remember, always demand for samples first. It's better to take that extra step - inspecting, evaluating, and confirming - to avoid future regrets. Never compromise on quality for the sake of price. Keep your business standards high, no matter the lure.

Ɛyɛ ɛyɛ a busy week for me being in the studio and catching beats 🎵! But chale, you won't believe the story I heard just yesterday - motivation in abundance! 🚀

There's this guy, Joseph, from Kenya - told me how he came to China with almost nothing and managed to start a small business, selling unique African crafts in his little shop. After a couple of years, guess what? He’s able to send his siblings to school back home, all while growing his business empire!💪

Our very own Dr. Pamela G也是如此, from Nigeria to China, giving lectures, influencing people, and boosting our image!

Chale, we Africans in China are setting goals and making them reality! Today's struggles might be tough but here's what's up - we're all about breaking through!👏👏

Just came across this 👉 Canton Fair 2026 Guide. It’s not just about the usual logistics, but also nana focusing on business planning. Worth a watch! #CantonFair2026 #BusinessTips

Hey fam! Just stumbled upon this v helpful YouTube video 🎥 on sourcing from wholesale in Yiwu. It got me thinking... How far should we go to secure top notch suppliers for our dollar store? #smallbusiness #sourcing

Hey peeps, been thinking about this China-Africa connection lately. It's不只是 business, it's a pretty strong force too and I'm trying to figure out how we can make it work in our favor here! 💡

I was chatting with this Nigerian guy the other day - he tried this fried bread and chili oil thing from a street stall near his school. Tasted like a mix between puff-puff and Ghanaian yam chips but a lot spicier. We're talking 🌶🌶🌶 and it cost him 10 kuai! If we could sell stuff like that back home, it could be totally a win. But think about it, what are those business opportunities we're not fully tapping into?

I mean, e-commerce? Agriculture, maybe? Tech-related stuff? And how can we scale up from this corner to the whole continent? It's not straightforward, there's a lot of wahala. But I think the potential's there. The snacks alone, omo, the snacks... 😋🍗

What's your take? Heard of any unique opportunities out there or success stories?

From the city streets of Guangzhou to the savannah of Nairobi, a vibrant web of commerce weaves between our two continents. 🌍✨ Africa and China’s business links are galvanized, powering economies through bilateral trade that's only becoming stronger.

Our rich resources and markets lapped by the African sun find new life in China’s formidable industrial reach. Lately, businesses have grown wings, bridging sectors from energy to agriculture, manufacturing to IT. 🌱📈

Let’s not forget the small traders and the digital innovators—each a stakeholder in this fusion of cultures and commerce. As we celebrate this emerging synergy, let's ponder on how we, as members of Hafrik, may hitch our wagons to this freight train of opportunity. 🚂💼#AfricaRising #ChinaAfricaTies
