Prior to the signing ceremony, senior leaders from RSIN and ZZ engaged in a deep and sincere dialogue. Ms. Ma Bingbing, Chairwoman of ZZ, expressed her appreciation to RSIN for the opportunity to cooperate, stating, “RSIN, as a exemplary model of Chinese entrepreneurs investing in Nigeria, has the same core values of integrity in business and genuine partnership with suppliers as ZZ. We are committed to work with RSIN to sow seeds of hope along the Belt and Road, and to write brilliant chapters on the global stage, demonstrating the international competitiveness of Chinese enterprises.”

Mr. Lin Weijie, Chairman of RSIN, delivered a key address on behalf of the Board of Directors, in which he highly praised the outstanding achievements of ZZ in the field of metallurgical equipment. He particularly highlighted ZZ’s leadership in the super heavy H-beam project of China’s “14th Five-Year Plan” , which fully demonstrated ZZ’s robust research and development capabilities and innovative spirit. Mr. Lin Weijie remarked, “ZZ not only has strong technical expertise, high-quality products and a talented workforce, but also embraces an international service philosophy focused on customer needs.
