Accustomed to industrial pollution, it is rare to see such a blue sky. Lao Huang has long been surprised, he said, if it is in summer, the scenery here is more beautiful. The earth is greener and the flowers are more colorful. Moreover, the air is so permeable that even from a distance, it is possible to see which clouds are raining and which are still clear.

In some sections, the grass on the side of the road has been set on fire, leaving a black patch. It was the result of man-made efforts, and the selective, step-by-step burning of the weeds was done to make the land more fertile, but also to drive away herbivores, such as lions, to make them easier to spot. In this way, South Africans try to maintain a balance in the natural world.

To paraphrase a very hypocritical phrase, South Africa is heartbreakingly beautiful.

The beauty here can even allow Lao Huang to overcome the fear of bad law and order. Asked him whether he would continue to stay in South Africa or return to China to settle down after retirement, Lao Huang hesitated a little and immediately gave the answer: "I want to stay in South Africa, it's so beautiful here." ”

Of course, although these words were heard from Liu Mengxun's mouth, Zhang Tianyuan didn't dare to believe them all, after all, Liu Mengxun came here relatively early, and the security at that time was probably much better than now.

In fact, what he had learned from others about Johannesburg was terrifying.

Nie Zhen has also been here, and he also talked about some of his experiences.

"I spent some time in Joburg and I just messed up a word. I can describe it to you. The friend who got off the plane to pick us up did not hold up the pick-up card, because he did not dare to raise it, for fear of being known that it was a newcomer who came to Joburg and was targeted. I have friends who have been working here for almost 10 years. Never been on the street, commuting to and from work by car. Shopping is done in the kind of enclosed malls with armed and loaded security, and the private security industry in Joburg is very developed. Weapons are even better than the police, because the market is huge. ”

"The SOUTHERNSUN hotel I was staying in was closed, with multiple barricades and gun-wielding security guards, and it was the hotel where the World Cup preparation team was located at the time, and the security was already in place, even then the hotel room told guests in various Chinese languages not to open the door to strangers easily, and not to walk around the hotel courtyard after dark. ”

"In addition, a few months before I went, a separate office building at ZTE was ransacked by nearly 20 people at gunpoint. There is also a new city in Joburg and an old city, the old city is like a dead city filmed in Resident Evil, all black. Black people are supreme, and no one of other people of color will go anywhere, not even by car. I only went this once, and I remember it very well. In South Africa, except for Joburg, other cities in South Africa, such as Durban, Cape Town, Bito, and other white-run areas are safe. Good luck to you. ”

Of course, when Nie Zhen said this, his face was really a little unbearable and frightened, but there was no way to stop Zhang Tianyuan.

Zhang Tianyuan is a very stubborn person, unless he sees it with his own eyes, he will be suspicious of many things even if he hears about it.

Of course, maybe it would be better to consider Liu Mengxun and Nie Zhen's words together. Johannesburg is a beautiful city, but it's also a dangerous city.

It's not discrimination, it's just that there is too much violence in Johannesburg, and most of it is done by black people. How could this convince him that the blacks here were peace-loving?

I got off the plane, sat in the car, and felt the temperature here in the more than 20 degrees Celsius. Looking at more than 90% of the black people outside the window, Zhang Tianyuan was really a little worried.

Fortunately, Zhang Qin and the others have been arranged to a safe place. He had only Monza and Yunmo with him.

Well, there's one more guy. He never dreamed that this guy would sneak along.

"Liu Ruohan, let me tell you, this place is very unsafe, be careful yourself, don't blame me if you lose your life, why do you have to follow me every time I go to the field, you're quite smart, you actually hide in the warehouse, and you're not afraid of wronging your eldest lady?"

That's right, it was Liu Ruohan who followed Zhang Tianyuan, and she was still relying on Zhang Tianyuan's courtyard, but because she didn't do anything excessive, she got along well with Liu Mengxun and others, Zhang Tianyuan almost regarded her as his other sister, but it wasn't until she went far away that Zhang Tianyuan was sure again that this girl was really not a fuel-efficient one.

"Look at you stingy, don't you just play with you. I haven't been to Johannesburg either, so I can't come and visit yet?" Liu Ruohan looked out the window, his curiosity was still strong enough.

Zhang Tianyuan was really speechless about this girl, it was impossible for him to care about the life or death of this girl, but fortunately, this girl still had some ability, and she didn't worry too much, and after being angry for a while, she simply cared about the situation in Johannesburg.

He hadn't been here before, but now it was the information world, and he had asked many people about the situation here, including the things that Liu Mengxun and Nie Zhen said, and of course, some of them were about this place.

Many people may know that South Africa, a country that was first a Dutch colony and later a British colony, did not have a canal at that time, so the Cape of Good Hope was almost the only way from Europe to Asia, and that place naturally prospered.

It can be said that the country was basically founded by the Europeans, but it was later taken over by the Africans, and of course the land was owned by the Africans themselves.

In the past, the fate of the whole country was in the hands of whites, and it can be said that because of the influence of colonial nature, South Africa was simply a country controlled by a small number of whites, and some people even said that South Africa was actually a white country in Africa.

However, since Mandela came to power, this situation has changed a lot, but there is a feeling that it is too much.

Now the black people have a lot of power in South Africa, but the white people control the wealth of South Africa, which inevitably creates contradictions, which is why South Africa often stages violent attacks. White people are very unwelcome in South Africa right now.

Mandela felt that blacks and people of color were privileged.

This can be seen in the diamond veins, where whites have gradually lost control of the diamond mines.

After Mandela's death, Zuma came to power, although he still implemented Mandela's consistent policy, but because of the low level of education of black South Africans in general, and the policy is too indulgent, this makes South Africa, especially Johannesburg, the security problem very serious.

Of course, we have to admit that blacks used to live under white rule as pigs and dogs.

In order to resist the cruel rule of the white people, those black people who love equality and freedom began a hard and outstanding struggle, a documentary was shown in the museum, which described in detail the history of the struggle of the black people, and I couldn't help but cry when I watched the documentary inside, in order to fight for freedom and rights, those young blacks took to the streets one after another, and the struggle and resistance against the white rulers were launched, and the interlude in the middle was very good, and it was very exciting to listen to, and it was moving.

The international community, including China, also unanimously condemned the South African government and imposed economic sanctions on South Africa, and finally the black people obtained the freedom they dreamed of in 1994, and the black people could finally live with dignity like the white people, and lived a happy and happy life ever since.

Nowhere is this more evident than in the South African Apartheid Memorial!

Zhang Tianyuan hadn't been to this place, but he had heard Liu Mengxun and Nie Zhen mention it.

South Africa had a policy of apartheid between 1948 and 1994, which used a system to segregate people (mainly whites, blacks, Indians, and other colored people) and enforce geographical separation against ethnic groups. Apartheid was strengthened through the Population Registration Act (which required all the population to be registered according to race) and the Bloc Area Act (which set aside areas in the country where black residents were prohibited), and in the later stages of the apartheid policy in South Africa, the international community severely condemned the South African government and used economic sanctions and other means, finally forcing the South African authorities to lift martial law in 1990 and achieve national reconciliation.

Liu Mengxun told Zhang Tianyuan at the time that she was on the way to the South African Apartheid Memorial, and the South African tour guide said that they would be very sad after visiting, but he didn't expect him to be right, and when visiting the South African Apartheid Memorial, Liu Mengxun felt heavy pressure and even cried.

She told Zhang Tianyuan that there are two doors from the entrance to the museum, one for whites and one for blacks, and each entrance shows them the ID cards of different races, and this ID card determines a person's fate, blacks can only live in poor, backward, and dirty places, while whites enjoy privileges and control political and economic power.

The museum displays a lot of historical materials and objects, including photos of black people being abused during the apartheid period, photos of the miserable life of black people in those years, as well as a model of a prison for black prisoners and a model of a police car for black people captured in their original state, exposing the dark rule of apartheid in South Africa.

Those who do not know this dark history may criticize Mandela's policies for destroying the South African economy, but these people who really know this history will understand how terrible the madness of these white people is, and now that the black people are so strong in resistance and so fierce in hatred, they can understand.

Just like many people who have really experienced the Anti-Japanese War, they will never be able to say the cute words of the Japanese, and in the face of the bloody reality, no one can easily reconcile.

Johannesburg, South Africa, is the largest city in South Africa and the world's largest gold production center.

It is said that one day in 1886, a white man named George Harrison was walking on a farm north of Johannesburg when he tripped over a rock that was exposed to the ground. (To be continued.) )
