Since seven or eight years ago,the Liangma River has changed tremendously. I come here once in a while to chat with my friends.And then sometimes I might take my computer with me, and sit on those benches to work.Sometimes I take a walk from here to Solana.When coming here,you will have a feeling that life doesn't have to be that fast.You can slow down.I feel so lucky to live in a very pleasant natural and beautiful place to work, learn and improve myself.
I'm Wahed Ahmadzai,from Afghanistan. I have lived in Chaoyang District for nine years.I started my first own business in 2015.It is a project called “Studying in China”.It is to help the Chinese universities enroll international students and benefit overseas students by building a service platform for them in China. Chaoyang District has become a window for me to understand the world.When I first started my business, I set up my office in Sanlitun.Why? Because within one kilometer,there are over 500 restaurants where people can enjoy food from all over the world.
In my junior year, I started another business called YOOFU Youth International Cultural Education.This is the second time Chaoyang District has helped our business.
In 2020,I attended a forum called “My Opportunity in the Belt and Road Initiative”.It got me thinking about what are my opportunities in China.
So for the third time,I started my business,
NHUB Beijing Infinity Port (Culture Technology Co., LTD.) , to help Chinese companies expand overseas presence at a faster pace.As Chinese companies do businesses in overseas market, the advantages of foreign talents must be reckoned with.I just brought a few slides of power points to participate in a competition.Efficiently, within a few months, I had registered my new company.And then there was a big team which constantly communicated with us.The team guided us,supported us,taught us how to start a business in Chaoyang District.I was so touched.So I told many friends that if you want to succeed, you have to come to Chaoyang District.
In the age of project economy, many people don't need offices,they just need a comfortable space.The coffee shops here,become an office space and a space for communication.
Coffee has now become an essential part of my life.For me, it's a button that helps me switch into the work mode.There are so many coffee shops here.Almost in every street,there is a great coffee shop with a nice environment.Coffee is now tied to entrepreneurship.We used to just drink coffee, now we enjoy coffee.
Chaoyang is my home away from home.To a large extent, it is kind of my first home.Because I spend more time in Chaoyang District than in my own country.I forgot to apply for a visa the year before last year because I forgot I was a foreigner.I appreciate Chaoyang District that I can not only have a good career development here but also enjoy a perfectly happy life!
