Li Chentao, assistant general manager of China-Africa TEDA Investment Company: Because I am a member of the Communist Party

Two days ago, the mixed ownership reform of the city's first "going out" enterprise bore fruit: China-Africa TEDA Investment Co., Ltd. was successfully delisted from the Tianjin Property Rights Exchange Center. The specific leader of this reform is no one else, it is Li Chentao.

"The results of TEDA's mixed reform in China and Africa are almost preemptive — a race against time, and no link can be wrong," people who know about this reform say. The specific "burden" fell on the shoulders of the mixed reform project team led by Li Chentao. Perhaps because of his long-term involvement in financial work, Li Chentao, who is about to turn 40, gives people the first impression of being particularly stable and rational. He is the General Assistant of TEDA in Central Africa and is in charge of the company's finance and board offices. Grasping mixed reform, he is undoubtedly the best candidate. A year ago, June 30 was the launch day of the Sino-African TEDA mixed reform. According to the process, the first step must be to do a good job of "clearing, reviewing and evaluating". China-Africa TEDA's investment projects are far on the shores of the Red Sea, needless to say, audit and evaluation institutions must go to Egypt to carry out relevant work, and when they are busy, the relevant reports will be almost the end of the year. "Prepare a mixed reform plan, do a good job in the transformation of the cadre system, the employee resettlement plan, and the analysis of the situation of the intended enterprises... So the 'trot' is approaching the listing day - June 29. Not only us, but also TEDA Holdings, all relevant departments and leaders in the city are in a hurry." Why are you in such a hurry? Li Chentao explained: "Because the review and appraisal reports are valid within one year, they must be repeated after they expire. In the past year, Li Chentao has poured his heart and sweat into the project, and overtime is the norm, but he still does not hesitate to say that this is what he should do.

Li Chentao has a strong TEDA complex, he claims to be the "old man" of TEDA in Central Africa, ten years ago in 2008, the Sino-Ethiopia TEDA Suez Economic and Trade Cooperation Zone was built, and the next year he went there and submitted an application to join the party. He worked there for more than two years. It was a hard and fulfilling day, every morning out and late return, catching up with the high temperature days in July and August, often lacking water and electricity, unable to take a bath, greasy and greasy, and everyone was also bitter and happy to spend together. He also caught up with the intense social unrest in Egypt during the 2011 Spring Festival. He still vividly remembers hiding bullets with his colleagues at a textile factory in the park, but they didn't flinch. In hindsight, it was the conviction of the Communist Party members that sustained that persistence and perseverance.

From the age of 30 to 40, Li Chentao spent a beautiful decade of his life in TEDA in Central Africa. He grew up there and poured all his passion into it. Now, the reformed Central African TEDA is about to enter a new journey, and he will continue to devote himself to it, "because I am a TEDA person, because I am a Communist Party member."
