"One Belt and One Road" connects the world, and benefits quietly come to our home

Speaking of "One Belt, One Road", you may think that this is a major national issue in the news, far away from our lives of daily necessities. But this is not the case. It is like invisible threads that have connected our lives to the whole world, bringing many visible and tangible benefits.

Our “shopping cart” contains the whole world

· Imported delicacies are no longer expensive: Why are Chilean cherries and Thai durians, which were considered “affordable luxury” products a few years ago, becoming more common and more affordable now? Behind this is the contribution of the “One Belt, One Road” initiative. Trade is more convenient and customs clearance is faster. Good things like white shrimps from Ecuador, red wine from Georgia, and nuts from Turkey can be put on our dining tables cheaper and fresher.

· Get ​​global goodies with just one click: Want to buy Polish milk or Italian leather goods? There is no need to find purchasing agents, there are many choices on cross-border e-commerce platforms. This is thanks to the China-Europe freight trains, known as the "Steel Camel Team", which deliver tens of thousands of overseas products directly to our doorsteps day and night.

· "Made in China" has a broad future and our job is more secure: our domestic mobile phones, home appliances, and new energy vehicles are also sold more smoothly to all parts of the world along this road. The factory has more orders and better profits. Our jobs will be more stable and our income will be guaranteed. This is a major matter for our pockets.

Let’s “go out and see the world” with more choices

· Traveling is easy, and the destinations are more niche: in addition to the popular Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, it has become a new trend to go to Serbia to see ancient castles, to take the China-Laos Railway through the tropical rainforest, and to Kazakhstan to experience the grassland style. Many countries along the route are open to us. Visas are more convenient, there are many routes, and air tickets are affordable.

· Cultural exchanges, eye-openers and insights: We can see Iranian movies and Polish art exhibitions at our doorstep; at the same time, more Chinese elements such as lion dance and Hanfu have appeared in overseas Spring Festival celebrations. This kind of cultural exchange between you and me has enriched our spare time life and broadened our perspective on the world.

Our "work and study" have new paths

· High-paying overseas jobs are beckoning: In countries along the “Belt and Road”, there are many large-scale projects to build roads, build bridges, and operate ports. This has created a large number of overseas job opportunities for our engineers, technicians, translators and project managers, and is a new way to achieve career breakthroughs and wealth accumulation.

· It’s good to find another way to study abroad: study aerospace in Russia, study medicine in Hungary... Study abroad programs in these “Belt and Road” countries may have lower tuition fees, but the majors are very distinctive, providing our students with more diverse and affordable options for further study.

In general, the “One Belt, One Road” initiative is no longer an empty slogan for ordinary people, but:

· Good news for foodies: Realizing “cherry freedom” is no longer a dream.

· Carnival of the hand-picking party: Shop around the world without leaving home.

· A treasure map for travel enthusiasts: niche destinations, just go.

· A new track for workers: overseas career opportunities with broad prospects.

· A new window for the student party: more choices for studying abroad and a broader path for the future.

Of course, we will encounter cultural and legal differences when we go abroad, but this wave of open cooperation has generally brought us more convenience and opportunities.

So, next time when you taste delicious imported fruits, or see the China-Europe freight train speeding by in the news, you can smile knowingly: It turns out that the grand national blueprint of "One Belt, One Road" has already turned into these delicious little days around us.
