国内英语资讯:Feature: Two young foreigners growing paths changed with Chinese investment

Soon she became a "spokeswoman" for DEC in the Duyen Hai area and a local "celebrity," something she had never dreamed of.

The small town of Duyen Hai has experienced an even more dramatic change as the construction of the Duyen Hai 1 project has brought many opportunities to town. Wide, clean streets and modern markets as well as entertainment facilities all emerged in town.

Nowadays, a modern power plant stands at the once sandy and deserted beach, generating electricity for the whole nation of Vietnam. Many locals are recruited by DEC and earn decent salaries; others open karaoke bars, restaurants and hotels to make a living.

In April 2013, Wen Di followed Yin to the GDHA 500KV substation construction project department in Holeta town in Ethiopia's Oromia region.

As he got to know Yin better, Wen Di started to admire his Chinese employer.

"My master is very kind. Even when I do something wrong, he seldom blames me. He does not give me 'special treatment' because I have a different skin color, and we always feel at ease, just like a family," Wen Di said.

"My master's English is not very good. Normally when we encounter technical terms, we mostly communicate using gestures. As time went by, I got to understand what my master was trying to say even if he only uttered one word. I just need to look into his eyes to know my mistake if I do something wrong," said Wen Di.
