Zhang Bingnan welcomed Deputy President Mashatile and his delegation on their visit to China and to CCCC, expressed gratitude for the long-standing trust and support from the South African government, and introduced CCCC's core strengths, global presence, and business operations in South Africa. He stated that CCCC has focused on South Africa's national development strategies and people's livelihood needs, delivering a number of major landmark projects and "small yet beautiful" livelihood projects in areas such as transport infrastructure, resource development, green environmental protection, and water conservancy and water supply. Moving forward, CCCC will thoroughly implement the important consensus reached by the two heads of state, actively align the Belt and Road Initiative with South Africa's National Development Plan 2030, leverage platforms such as the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation and the BRICS cooperation mechanism, fully utilize its integrated, comprehensive, and synergistic system integration advantages in the "Five Full, Four Major, and Five Types" sectors, continuously increase resource investment, and create more exemplary cooperation projects between China and South Africa, contributing more CCCC wisdom and strength to deepening and substantiating the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and South Africa in the new era.

Mashatile fully affirmed CCCC's construction achievements and demonstrated sense of responsibility in South Africa, thanking CCCC for its positive contributions to South Africa's economic and social development. He noted that as a leading enterprise in global infrastructure and urban construction, CCCC's numerous major projects and livelihood initiatives in South Africa have effectively enhanced regional connectivity and improved people's well-being. Currently, South Africa is at a critical juncture of economic development and infrastructure upgrading, with immense potential for cooperation between the two sides in infrastructure sectors such as highways, railways, ports, airports, municipal works, energy, and water conservancy. He expressed hope that CCCC will further leverage its full industry chain advantages, deeply participate in the construction of key projects in South Africa, help South Africa address infrastructure gaps, create more local employment opportunities, drive the development of related industries, and jointly write a new chapter of friendly cooperation between South Africa and China.

Senior government officials including South African Ambassador to China Siyabonga C. Cwele, along with CCCC Vice President Chen Zhong and relevant unit heads, attended the meeting.
