以色列人在非洲：生意经就是这么“硬核”the Success/Wisdom of Israelis in Africa

When you chat with Jewish people, it doesn’t take long to realize just how sharp they are. They clearly believe in their own intelligence, but that doesn’t stop them from appreciating the brilliance of others. In conversations with Jewish businesspeople, they often bring up the Chinese, acknowledging that they’re also quite smart. But there’s a palpable sense of confidence among the Jewish, as if their intelligence gives them a certain “control over everything” kind of vibe.

One Israeli friend put it this way:

“I’ve always felt this vibe that people from China and Israel are kind of on the same wavelength, especially with the whole hard work thing. Some see it as pushy, but I see it as making things happen. Actually, a lot of Jewish businesspeople admire the Chinese approach to business.”

Another Israeli acquaintance mentioned his hands-on approach when it comes to running projects in Africa. He said, “You know, we don’t really like to take our hands off the wheel. Especially in a place like Africa, we need to be in control. Otherwise, project progression and quality assurance can become real issues.” This mindset reflects the Jewish approach to business—they value not only smart strategies but also the importance of execution. Many of their projects in Africa are managed directly, ensuring that every detail remains under their control. It’s no wonder Jewish people have seen significant success in various fields.

This Israeli friend also highlighted his admiration for the Chinese discipline. He believes that in Africa, or in any challenging environment, discipline and strong execution are essential for success. He noted that many Chinese bring their successful business models and practices to Africa, but it’s their discipline and ability to implement that truly sets them apart. Compared to the work ethic of the Chinese and Israelis, Africans might seem more laid-back, which is why having disciplined, execution-focused teams is crucial to achieving project goals in Africa. I completely agree—discipline and execution are key to success, especially in unpredictable environments.

One day, another Jewish friend said to me, “You know, Chinese traditional medicine is just fascinating.” I couldn’t help but smile. Although many of these Jewish friends have never been to China, they clearly have a good understanding of it. Through our conversations, I’ve realized they are familiar with and respectful of Chinese traditional wisdom, medicine, and culture.

Even though they haven’t been to China, they’ve already started quietly learning from it. They admire the principles of wellness and traditional healing methods found in Chinese medicine. But their interest doesn’t stop there—they are also intrigued by China’s achievements in technology and engineering. They observe and learn, always striving to keep up with trends and advanced knowledge, even from afar in Africa.

有趣的对话：犹太人眼中的“中国智慧”和“聪明人”之道

犹太人真的非常聪明，这一点和他们聊过几句你就能感受到。而且，他们也认为自己很聪明，但这并不妨碍他们欣赏别的聪明人。和犹太商人聊天的时候，他们不止一次提到中国人，说中国人也很聪明。不过，犹太人那种自信的感觉，你能明显地感受到——他们觉得他们的聪明是那种“掌控一切”的聪明。

这位以色列朋友的原话是这么说的：

You know, I’ve always felt this vibe that people from China and Israel are kind of on the same wavelength, especially with the whole hard work thing. some see it as pushy, but I see it as making things happen.  Actually, a lot of Jewish businesspeople admire the Chinese approach to business..（翻译过来就是：“我一直觉得中国人和以色列人在某些方面有相同的‘频率’，尤其是在那种努力工作的态度上。有些人可能觉得这样有点‘强势’，但我认为这其实是‘成事’的关键。实际上，很多犹太商人都很钦佩中国人做生意的方式。”‍

还有一个犹太朋友跟我聊到非洲的项目落地时，他说：“你知道的，我们不太习惯放手不管。尤其是在非洲这样的地方，我们得亲自把控。不然的话，项目推进和质量保证都成问题。” 这其实很能反映犹太人的思维方式——他们不仅注重聪明的策略，还非常看重实际的执行。他们在非洲的项目，很多时候都是亲力亲为，确保每一个环节都在自己的掌控之下。这也难怪，犹太人在很多领域都有不俗的成绩。

这位犹太朋友说他最欣赏中国人的地方就是我们的discipline (纪律性)。他认为在非洲做任何项目，纪律性和强大的执行能力是必不可少的。据他的观察，很多中国人在非洲做生意/项目时，通常是将本土已经成功的商业模式和经验复制到非洲。然而，要想在这里真正取得成功，仅靠复制还不够，必须要有严密的纪律和执行力。非洲人相较之下没有中国人和以色列人那么勤奋和有纪律性，整体上显得有些懒散，这也是为什么拥有更强纪律性和执行力的团队在非洲能更好地实现项目目标。对此，我也深有同感，毕竟在一个充满不确定性的环境中，纪律和执行力就是成功的保障。

“你知道吗？中国的中医真是太神奇了。”当另一个犹太朋友这么说的时候，我不禁笑了。虽然这些犹太人中很多人并没有去过中国，但你能感觉到，他们对中国的了解不浅。和他们聊天，发现他们对中国的传统智慧、医学、文化都有所耳闻，并且很尊重。

他们说，虽然自己没去过中国，但早就开始默默地学习中国的东西了。比如在中医领域，他们特别佩服中国的养生理念和传统治疗方法。而且不止于此，他们对中国在科技、工程等方面的成就也很感兴趣。他们会观察、学习，哪怕是在遥远的非洲，他们也会努力跟上潮流和先进知识。

犹太资本：神秘与高调的完美结合 Jewish Capital: The Perfect Blend of Mystery and High Profile

图源网络

The influence of Jewish capital on a global scale is far from a secret. From Blackstone Group to BlackRock and the Soros Fund, Jewish financial power often finds itself linked to major economic events and financial transactions. As the saying goes, where there's opportunity, there’s often Jewish capital involved. For instance, there are rumors that Jewish capital played a significant role in Ukraine’s post-war reconstruction agreements. This ability to maneuver with both depth and agility ensures that Jewish capital maintains a certain enigmatic power within the global economy.

Unlike the more low-key Lebanese businessmen, Jewish entrepreneurs are not shy about stepping into the spotlight. They openly discuss their successes and use high-profile investment activities to enhance their brand and capital influence. Whether it’s through strategic financial market operations or extending their reach into political spheres, Jewish capital secures its place and voice through precise investments and calculated strategies. Companies like Blackstone, with their large-scale global acquisitions and investments, have built a vast asset management empire, offering a solid foundation for the high-profile nature of Jewish capital.

The reach of Jewish capital isn’t confined to just finance; it extends into cultural and media industries as well. Many influential media and publishing houses have Jewish capital backing them. The leaders in these fields understand the power of information and public opinion in a globalized world. By investing in media and culture, Jewish investors have secured significant influence over the global narrative, further solidifying their impact worldwide.

High tech and startups are another critical focus for Jewish capital. Israel, often referred to as the “Startup Nation,” is home to numerous high-tech startups making waves on the global stage. Jewish capital’s investments in these companies not only yield substantial returns but also drive technological innovation forward. Jewish investors have a keen eye for spotting early-stage projects and future technological trends. This “profit from the future” approach consistently places them at the forefront of emerging tech waves.

Beyond business and technology, Jewish capital is also active in philanthropy and public welfare. Many Jewish billionaires engage in charitable activities, using donations and foundations to support education, healthcare, and cultural development worldwide. These high-profile philanthropic efforts not only boost their social image but also help Jewish capital build a broad network of social connections and capital.

Many people often mention the Rothschild family, BlackRock, and Blackstone as examples, arguing that these Jewish financial giants control the U.S. economy and are the real “big bosses” behind America. There are even rumors that the majority of the Federal Reserve’s shares are owned by the Rothschilds, allowing them to influence U.S. monetary policy. While these ideas are more aligned with conspiracy theories and lack solid evidence, and many openly dispute them, they highlight the widespread belief in and attention to the influence of Jewish capital in global finance and economics.

The true strength of Jewish capital lies in its deep global integration and adaptive operations. From Blackstone to BlackRock, these companies’ performance and influence in the financial markets are undeniable. Rather than fixating on who might be the “big boss,” it’s more pertinent to acknowledge the reality: Jewish capital, with its unique perspective and strategic insight, unquestionably holds a pivotal role in shaping the global economic landscape.

犹太资本：神秘与高调的完美结合

犹太资本在全球的影响力早已不是什么秘密。无论是黑石集团、贝莱德，还是索罗斯基金，犹太资本的身影常常出现在重大经济事件和金融交易的背后。有人调侃说，哪里有商机，哪里就有犹太资本的影子。传言在乌克兰的战后重建协议中，犹太资本也发挥了重要作用。这种灵活且深不可测的运作能力，使得犹太资本在全球经济中始终保持着一种神秘的力量。

与低调行事的黎巴嫩人相比，犹太商人更喜欢“出风头”，他们并不避讳谈论自己的成功，反而通过高调的投资活动来提升品牌和资本的影响力。从金融市场的运作到政治领域的影响力，犹太资本总能通过精准的投资和战略布局，确保自己的地位和话语权。黑石集团等顶级私募股权公司，通过大规模的全球收购和投资，不仅形成了庞大的资产管理规模，还为犹太资本的高调行事提供了坚实的基础。

犹太资本的高调不止于金融领域，还扩展到文化和媒体行业。许多有影响力的媒体和出版机构背后，都能找到犹太资本的身影。他们深谙在全球化时代，信息和舆论的力量不可忽视。通过对媒体和文化的投资，犹太人在全球的舆论场上也拥有了显著的话语权，进一步巩固了他们在全球范围内的影响力。

高科技和初创企业是犹太资本另一重要投资领域。以色列被誉为“初创国家”，大量的高科技初创公司在全球崭露头角。犹太资本通过投资这些高科技企业，不仅实现了资本增值，还推动了技术创新的发展。犹太人的投资眼光非常敏锐，喜欢投早期项目，预判未来科技趋势。这种“站在未来赚钱”的模式，让他们总能在新兴科技潮流中抢占先机。

除了商业和科技，犹太资本在慈善和公益事业上也不遗余力。许多犹太富豪积极参与全球的慈善活动，通过捐赠和设立基金会，支持教育、医疗、文化等各个领域的发展。这种高调的慈善行为不仅提升了他们的社会形象，还为犹太资本积累了广泛的人脉网络和社会资本。

很多人经常提到罗斯柴尔德家族(Rothschild family)、贝莱德(BlackRock),和黑石(Blackstone)等金融巨头，说这些犹太资本控制了美国的经济，是美国真正的“大BOSS”。甚至有传言称，美联储的大部分股份都由罗斯柴尔德家族持有，因而他们能够影响美国的货币政策。虽然这些说法可能更多是基于阴谋论，缺乏确凿的证据，许多人也公开反对这种观点，但它们在某种程度上反映了人们对犹太资本在全球金融和经济领域影响力的关注和猜测。

犹太资本的强大之处在于他们在全球范围内的深度布局和灵活运作，从黑石到贝莱德，这些公司在金融市场的表现和影响力有目共睹。与其纠结于谁是“大BOSS”，不如认清一个事实：犹太资本凭借其独特的视角和战略眼光，确实在全球经济格局中占据了重要位置。

以色列人在非洲：他们的生意经就是这么“硬核”

Israelis in Africa: The Hard-Hitting Business Tactics

Why Africa? The Strategic Vision of Jewish Entrepreneurs

You might wonder why Jewish businesspeople are so active in Africa. The answer is quite straightforward: Africa is rich in resources and offers enormous market potential, making it a “blue ocean” market that is a perfect playground for strategic minds. Jewish entrepreneurs excel at building relationships, and in countries like Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo, they have established strong ties with local governments and communities. Combined with their expertise in global capital operations and technological innovation, this has allowed them to thrive, navigating the African business landscape with ease.

Israelis in Africa: Masters of Hardcore Business

When it comes to making a mark in Africa, Israeli businesspeople are certainly in the spotlight. Especially in Angola, you can find their presence almost everywhere. From diamonds and real estate to agriculture, Israelis have a firm grip on these industries. They succeed not only through smart strategies but also by leveraging technology and capital to make their mark in the African market.

Diamonds: The Shining Jewel of Jewish Business

In Africa, the diamond trade is a “golden industry” that Jewish businesspeople would never pass up. Their involvement in the diamond business is practically textbook; they have mastered every aspect, from mining raw diamonds to creating exquisite jewelry. Figures like Dan Gertler have made significant inroads in the Democratic Republic of Congo, securing not only diamonds but also copper, cobalt, and other resources, effectively tapping into the continent’s rich mineral wealth. Then there’s Lev Leviev, who dominates the diamond market in Angola and has expanded his operations to Namibia and Zambia. With such expertise and control over the diamond trade, it’s no surprise that they’re reaping significant profits.

In essence, the Israeli business approach in Africa is marked by strategic vision, leveraging strong local ties, and harnessing global capital and technology to create impactful ventures. Their success in industries like diamonds is a testament to their ability to identify and capitalize on lucrative opportunities.

为什么选择非洲？犹太人的战略眼光

首先你可能会好奇，为什么犹太人在非洲这么活跃？其实很简单，非洲的资源丰富、市场潜力大，这种“蓝海市场”对犹太商人来说简直是天堂。而且，他们还擅长搞关系，在安哥拉、刚果这样的国家，与当地政府和社区建立了深厚的联系。再加上犹太商人特有的全球资本运作和科技优势，让他们在非洲如鱼得水、左右逢源。

以色列人在非洲：他们的生意经就是这么“硬核”

要说在非洲做生意谁最有存在感，那犹太商人绝对榜上有名。特别是在安哥拉，走到哪儿都能碰到他们的影子。钻石、房地产、农业，这些以色列人统统都拿捏得死死的。他们不仅靠脑子，也靠科技和资本，在非洲市场上混得如鱼得水。

钻石：犹太商人的“闪亮”招牌

在非洲，说到钻石生意，那可是犹太商人绝对不会错过的“黄金产业”。犹太人在钻石行业的表现真的是“教科书级别”，从原石开采到成品珠宝，他们拿捏得死死的。像丹·格特勒（Dan Gertler）这样的大咖，早在刚果（金）就搞定了不少矿产，不仅钻石，还有铜、钴等资源，简直把资源富矿都收入囊中。还有列夫·列维耶夫，他不仅在安哥拉的钻石市场称王称霸，还把业务扩展到纳米比亚、赞比亚等地。你说，钻石生意他们玩得这么溜，能不赚得盆满钵满吗？

Real Estate: Elevating Luxury Living

Beyond diamonds, Jewish businesspeople have made significant strides in the real estate sector as well. In high-end residential and commercial developments across Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Israeli influence is evident. In Angola’s booming real estate market, Israeli developers have seized a lucrative opportunity. The country’s wealth, fueled by its abundant oil and diamond resources, has led to a growing demand for luxury housing. Israeli developers, with their keen market insight, have capitalized on this by developing upscale apartments that cater to the affluent.

Every time locals see these modern designs and top-notch facilities, they’re reminded of the exceptional architectural taste and business acumen of Israeli developers. Living in these Israeli-developed apartments, Angolans are truly experiencing what “high-quality living” means. Israeli developers have not only profited from their ventures but also built a strong reputation for quality and luxury—leveraging this “soft power” to great effect.

These high-end apartments have become the preferred choice not only for Angola’s local elite but also for wealthy foreigners, including Russian and other international businesspeople who are in Angola for investments or business ventures. These foreign investors have a strong demand for high-standard living spaces that match their status and lifestyle. The luxury apartments developed by Israelis perfectly fill this market gap, catering to buyers who have the money but previously lacked access to top-tier real estate options. By accurately tapping into this demand, Israeli developers have revitalized Angola’s real estate market and reaped substantial profits in the process.

房地产：高端生活，从楼宇开始

除了钻石，犹太人在房地产上也大有作为。安哥拉和刚果金的一些高档公寓、商业楼盘，背后都有以色列人的身影。比如在安哥拉的房地产市场，以色列开发商找到了一个非常有利可图的机会。由于安哥拉丰富的石油和钻石资源，这里诞生了不少有钱人，他们对高端住宅的需求不断增长。以色列开发商敏锐地捕捉到了这个商机，通过开发高档公寓，成功吸引了这些富裕阶层的注意力。

每次看到这现代化的设计和一流的设施，本地人都不得不感叹：以色列人的建筑审美和商业眼光确实一流。住在他们开发的公寓里，本地安哥拉人真的是体验到了啥叫“高品质生活”。不得不说，以色列人在房地产上不仅赚了钱，还赢了口碑，这招“软实力”真是用得漂亮。这些公寓不仅成为安哥拉本地富豪的理想之选，还吸引了许多来自其他国家的有钱人，包括俄罗斯和其他地方的商人，他们来安哥拉投资或做生意。这些外籍富豪也有强烈的需求，希望购买符合国际标准的高档住宅，以符合他们的身份和生活方式。以色列开发的高端公寓项目，正好填补了这一市场空白，让那些“有钱却买不到高档楼盘”的买家得以实现愿望。通过精准把握市场需求，以色列开发商不仅为安哥拉的房地产市场注入了新活力，也为自己赚得盆满钵满。

Agriculture: Unlocking Africa’s “Green Gold” with Technology

Israel’s technological innovations in agriculture, energy, and water management have become a significant force in the African market. Particularly in regions plagued by drought, Israeli solutions have not only brought economic benefits but have also significantly improved the quality of life for local communities.

The success of Israelis in Africa can be attributed to a powerful combination of “technology and capital.” One aspect that has left a strong impression is their investment in agricultural technology. In Africa, a continent often considered challenging for farming, Israeli agricultural technologies have made a substantial impact. Advanced techniques such as drip irrigation, precision farming, and climate control, which are already well-developed in Israel, have been successfully introduced to African soil. For example, an Israeli entrepreneur I know is involved in large-scale agricultural projects, not only planting crops in Angola but also expanding into the Democratic Republic of Congo. They claim that Israeli agricultural tech can significantly boost food production and enhance food security in Africa. In Kenya, for instance, Israelis have collaborated with local farmers to cultivate wheat on a large scale, using advanced technology to increase yield and efficiency. This has revitalized what was once considered difficult-to-cultivate land.

•Drip Irrigation: The Lifeline for Drought-Prone Areas

Israel’s drip irrigation technology is among the world’s best, offering a method that increases crop yields while minimizing water wastage—ideal for water-scarce African nations. By precisely controlling water flow, drip irrigation minimizes evaporation and runoff, delivering water directly to plant roots and significantly enhancing water use efficiency. This method, known as “small drops, many times,” not only conserves water but also boosts crop quality and productivity.

Companies like Netafim, a global leader in drip irrigation, have initiated numerous projects across African countries. These initiatives have brought revolutionary changes to local agricultural production and have spurred economic development. By promoting drip irrigation, Israeli firms have not only earned substantial profits in Africa’s agricultural sector but have also built a strong reputation for their innovative solutions.

•Solar Power: Clean Energy for Africa

Another key factor in Israel’s African success is its innovation in solar energy. With abundant sunlight, Africa offers vast potential for solar power, and Israeli companies have been at the forefront of harnessing this potential. By investing in solar power plants, Israeli firms provide clean, sustainable energy solutions for African nations. These solar projects help alleviate local electricity shortages, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and support environmental protection efforts.

For example, Gigawatt Global, an Israeli company, built Rwanda’s first utility-scale solar power plant, providing substantial clean electricity to the region. Such projects not only showcase Israel’s technological prowess in renewable energy but also pave the way for sustainable development in Africa.

•Water Resource Management: Turning Scarcity into Abundance

Water management is another area where Israeli expertise shines in Africa. Israel leads in water technologies, including desalination and wastewater recycling, which are highly applicable to water-scarce African countries. Israeli companies bring advanced water treatment technologies to Africa, helping to address local water scarcity issues. For instance, IDE Technologies, an Israeli firm, has participated in multiple water treatment and desalination projects across Africa, using technology transfer and collaboration to improve water resource utilization in these regions.

Israeli firms not only export these advanced technologies but also train local technicians, helping African countries build self-sufficient water management systems. This transfer of knowledge and localized application further solidifies Israel’s position in the African market.

农业：用科技解锁非洲的“绿金”

以色列在农业、能源和水资源管理等领域的技术创新，已经成为非洲市场上的一股重要力量。特别是在干旱问题严重的地区，以色列的技术解决方案不仅带来了经济效益，也提升了当地人民的生活质量。

以色列人在非洲的成功，可以说是“科技＋资本”的完美结合。

让我印象深刻的是，以色列人在农业科技方面的投入。在非洲这片被认为“很难种东西”的土地上，以色列的农业技术却能发挥巨大的作用。滴灌技术、精确灌溉、气候控制——这些在以色列已经非常成熟的技术，被他们带到了非洲。比如我认识的一位以色列商人，他不仅在安哥拉种植农作物，还在刚果金开发了大规模的农业项目。他们说，以色列的农业科技可以帮助非洲提高粮食产量，改善粮食安全问题。比如在肯尼亚，以色列人通过高科技手段与当地农民合作，搞大规模的小麦种植， 提升了当地粮食的产量和效率。真的是让非洲这片“种植挑战重重”的土地重新焕发生机。

-滴灌技术：干旱地区的“救命稻草”

以色列的滴灌技术是全球领先的，这种技术能够在不浪费水资源的情况下，提高农作物的产量，非常适合非洲那些水资源匮乏的国家。通过精确的水量控制，滴灌技术能有效减少水的蒸发和渗漏，将水直接输送到植物根部，大大提高了水的利用效率。这种“少量多次”的灌溉方式，不仅帮助非洲农民节约了大量水资源，还显著提高了农作物的产量和品质。

以色列企业如Netafim，是全球滴灌技术的领导者，他们在非洲的多个国家都设有合作项目。这些项目不仅为当地农业生产带来了革命性的变化，还促进了当地的经济发展。可以说，滴灌技术的推广让以色列人在非洲的农业领域赚得盆满钵满，同时也赢得了良好的声誉。

-太阳能：非洲的清洁能源

以色列在太阳能领域的技术创新也是他们在非洲取得成功的重要原因之一。非洲大陆日照充足，具有巨大的太阳能潜力。以色列企业通过投资建设太阳能电站，为非洲国家提供清洁、可持续的能源解决方案。这些太阳能项目不仅帮助解决了当地的电力短缺问题，还减少了对化石燃料的依赖，促进了环境保护。

例如，以色列公司Gigawatt Global就在卢旺达建设了该国第一个公用事业规模的太阳能发电厂，为该地区提供了大量清洁电力。这样的项目展示了以色列在可再生能源领域的技术实力，也为非洲的可持续发展提供了一个新的方向。

-水资源管理：从缺水到富水

水资源管理是另一个以色列在非洲大显身手的领域。以色列有着世界领先的水资源管理技术，包括海水淡化和废水回收处理。这些技术非常适合那些水资源极其稀缺的非洲国家。以色列公司将先进的水处理技术带到非洲，帮助当地解决水资源短缺的问题。例如，以色列的IDE Technologies公司在非洲多个国家参与了水处理和海水淡化项目，通过技术转让和合作，帮助非洲国家提高水资源的利用率。

以色列人不仅向非洲出口这些先进技术，还通过培训当地技术人员，帮助非洲建立自主的水资源管理体系。这种知识的传递和技术的本地化应用，进一步巩固了以色列人在非洲市场的地位。

A High-Tech Business Model with a Vision

The Israeli strategy of focusing on high-tech solutions in Africa is not just a business tactic but a forward-looking vision. By promoting innovative solutions, Israeli companies not only achieve commercial success but also address pressing local challenges. This win-win model has established Israeli businesses as powerful players in the African market.

Through these technological innovations, Israel has earned the trust and praise of African governments and communities. Whether in agriculture, energy, or water management, Israelis have used high-tech solutions to solve real-world problems in Africa. This not only ensures that Israeli companies make substantial profits but also secures a lasting reputation and ongoing business opportunities.

Israel’s success in Africa vividly demonstrates that technology is a fundamental driver of progress. By using high-tech methods to open new markets, they have achieved both economic and social benefits. The Israeli story highlights that true business success relies not just on capital but also on technological innovation and the ability to solve real-world issues. In today’s globalized world, this tech-driven development model offers valuable lessons for other businesses and countries.

走高科技路线的商业模式

以色列人选择在非洲走高科技路线，这不仅是一种商业策略，更是一种长远的眼光。通过在非洲推广高科技解决方案，以色列人不仅实现了商业利润，还帮助非洲国家应对了实际问题。这样的双赢模式，让以色列人在非洲市场上建立了强大的影响力。

通过这些创新技术的应用，以色列赢得了非洲政府和民众的信任和好评。无论是在农业、能源还是水资源管理领域，以色列人都通过高科技手段解决了非洲的实际问题。这不仅让以色列企业在非洲市场中赚得盆满钵满，还赢得了良好的声誉和持久的商业机会。

以色列人在非洲的成功，充分证明了科技是硬道理。他们通过高科技手段打开了非洲市场，实现了经济效益和社会效益的双丰收。以色列的成功故事告诉我们，真正的商业成功不仅仅靠资本，更要靠技术创新和解决实际问题的能力。在全球化的今天，这种科技驱动的发展模式无疑为其他企业和国家提供了宝贵的借鉴经验。

黎巴嫩和以色列：同是中东背景，同是天涯经商人，却秉持不同的商业哲学

虽然黎巴嫩人和以色列人在非洲都有精彩的商业故事，但他们的成功之路却各有千秋。可以说，黎巴嫩人和以色列人在非洲市场上展现了两种截然不同的商业哲学：一种是低调务实的深耕策略，另一种则是高调进攻的科技路线。

黎巴嫩人：低调务实的“潜伏高手”

黎巴嫩和以色列，虽然都是中东地区的小国，但从历史、文化到商业路径，差别那真是大得不得了。黎巴嫩这个国家，自古以来就是东西方文化交汇的地方，有着多宗教、多文化的背景，这种多样性让黎巴嫩人在商业上展现出很强的适应力。黎巴嫩商人更像是市场中的“潜伏高手”，他们低调行事、稳扎稳打，通过与当地社区建立深厚的关系来巩固自己的地位。黎巴嫩人注重日常消费品和零售行业，这些领域虽然利润不如高科技和能源行业来得惊人，但胜在稳定和持续。他们擅长于建立和维护长期的客户关系，通过口碑和信任逐步扩大市场份额。黎巴嫩商人常常通过家族企业和人脉网络来推动业务，重视本地化经营，了解当地文化和市场需求，从而更好地满足客户的需求。

这种低调的商业策略，使得黎巴嫩人在非洲的商圈中显得格外“接地气”。他们更愿意保持一种隐形的存在感，通过一点一滴的积累来稳固自己的市场地位，而不是追求一夜暴富或过度曝光。这种稳健的做法，虽然不一定会带来短期的惊人收益，但却为他们在非洲市场上赢得了长期的信任和稳固的客户群体。

以色列人：高调进攻的“科技派”

相比之下，以色列人走的是另一条“科技派”的路线。他们的策略可以用一个词概括：高调进攻。以色列是一个相对年轻的国家，建国后历经了无数的战争和危机，以色列人培养出了极强的创新意识和危机应对能力。他们绝对是“科技控”和“资本派”，在高科技领域的创新能力几乎是全球顶尖的。以色列商人不拘泥于传统的商业模式，而是充分利用自己的科技优势和全球资本网络，快速进入并占领市场。高科技和创新是以色列人最核心的武器，他们通过技术的差异化来建立竞争壁垒。

在非洲，以色列人专注于高科技农业、能源开发和水资源管理等领域。这些行业不仅利润丰厚，而且市场潜力巨大。以色列企业通过提供先进的技术解决方案，帮助非洲国家解决实际问题，从而迅速赢得了市场的认可。他们的商业模式不仅是为了盈利，更是为了创造影响力和改变游戏规则。这种高调进攻的策略，使得以色列人往往在短时间内就能取得显著的市场份额。他们通过大规模投资和技术输出，快速提升品牌知名度和市场占有率。虽然这种模式风险较大，但回报也同样可观。在非洲，以色列企业常常能在短时间内站稳脚跟，并实现快速扩展。

各有千秋，各有精彩

黎巴嫩人和以色列人在非洲市场上，虽然都是“天涯经商人”，但却走着两条截然不同的商业路径。黎巴嫩人通过关系网络和文化融入，低调稳健地扩展业务；而以色列人则通过科技创新和资本运作，高调进攻，迅速占领市场。各有各的方式，各有各的精彩，这种差异也反映了中东地区商人们的多样性和智慧。

在全球化的商业环境中，没有一种策略是绝对优越的。成功的关键在于根据市场需求和自身优势，选择最合适的商业路径。黎巴嫩人和以色列人虽然路径不同，但都找到了在非洲市场上取得成功的方式，这也为我们提供了丰富的商业启示。每个市场都有其独特的特点，企业需要根据实际情况，制定符合自身发展的战略，才能在竞争激烈的全球市场中脱颖而出

善于整合资源：犹太人的智慧 

The Art of Resource Integration: A Hallmark of Jewish Wisdom

正如犹太经济学家威廉·立格逊所说，“一切都是可以靠借的，可以借资金、借人才、借技术、借智慧。”这句话几乎道尽了犹太人经商成功的秘诀。他们深谙资源整合之道，能够在复杂的商业环境中找到所需的资源，并将其有机地组合在一起，实现最大化的价值。

在犹太人的商业哲学中，世界已经为我们准备好了所有所需的资源，关键在于如何将这些资源收集起来，再通过智慧和策略将它们巧妙地融合。犹太人以他们卓越的资源整合能力闻名于世，这种能力不仅体现在他们强大的商业网络上，也体现在他们灵活的应变和广泛的知识面上。

这种整合资源的能力在非洲的商业环境中尤为突出。犹太商人能够迅速捕捉到市场上的机会，通过借助本地资源和全球资源的力量，建立起自己独特的商业模式。无论是在钻石交易中，还是在科技和农业创新上，他们都展示了这种非凡的整合能力。

犹太人告诉我们，聪明的经营不仅仅是依靠自己的力量，而是要学会借力打力，用全球的资源来服务于自己的目标。在这个全球化的时代，这种智慧无疑是值得我们每一个人学习和借鉴的。

写在最后

When Masters Meet: Business Has No Boundaries

Whether it’s the Lebanese approach of “steady and strategic,” focusing on low-key, pragmatic business tactics, or the Israeli style of “capital-driven” and “technology-forward” strategies, their successes show that business is more than just buying and selling—it’s an art form that embodies wisdom. In today’s globalized world, understanding how to adapt to local contexts and act accordingly is the real key to success.

This proves that even small nations can offer big insights! Whether you’re inclined to follow the Lebanese path of quiet immersion or take the Israeli route of bold innovation, the most crucial thing is to have your own business philosophy. Thinking long-term is the way to go further.

高手过招，商道无界

不论是黎巴嫩人的“稳扎稳打”，倾向于低调务实的商业策略，还是以色列人的“资本派”+“科技制胜”，他们的成功都告诉我们，商业不是简单的买卖，更是一种智慧的体现。在全球化的背景下，懂得因地制宜、顺势而为才是王道。

所以说，小国也有大智慧！不管你是想学黎巴嫩人的低调潜伏，还是想走以色列人的高调创新，关键是要有自己的“商道”。看得长远，才能走得更远。
