日前，埃及苏伊士运河大学孔子学院和开罗英国大学中文系的60名师生一起探访了位于中埃·泰达苏伊士经贸合作区内的巨石埃及，并与中埃两国的企业员工一同进行了丰富多彩的文化交流活动。

大到航空航天设备，小到家居物件，埃及学生们不仅惊叹于玻璃纤维广泛的应用场景，也对生产基地广阔的占地面积和机械自动化程度印象深刻。在恒温恒湿的生产车间里，学生们主动向正在进行操作的埃及员工询问各种设备的功能用途，生产流程参观让大家对玻璃纤维从原料到成品的生产过程有了直观认识。

在巨石埃及公司总经理吴平的带领和讲解下，学生们还对公司业务构成、生产基地未来规划以及玻璃纤维生产需要高技术和高投入的特点有了更深入了解。在得知巨石埃及完全拥有玻璃纤维生产自主核心技术并在埃及当地培养了大批高素质产业工人后，埃及学生桑德拉·加塔斯向记者感叹，科技有着强大力量，“中国制造很有魅力”。

吴平介绍说，巨石埃及成立于2012年1月，由中国巨石股份有限公司设立。目前，这个世界级大型玻璃纤维生产基地总占地面积达36万平方米，年产量超20万吨。这是中国在海外建设的首条大型玻璃纤维生产线，不仅填补了中东、北非地区玻璃纤维制造业的空白，也对中国玻璃纤维工业的国际化具有重要意义。

Hi-tech Chinese fiberglass factory captures hearts of Egyptian students

by Wu Danni, Mahmoud Fouly

SUEZ, Egypt, Jan. 7 (Xinhua) -- "I never thought fiberglass products were so close to our daily life! The production process here is so wonderful!" said Veronica Wael, an Egyptian student of Chinese language at Confucius Institute of the Suez Canal University in Egypt, when visiting China's fiberglass giant manufacturer Jushi.

At least 60 teachers and students from Confucius Institute at the Suez Canal University and the Department of Chinese Language and Literature at the British University in Egypt recently visited Jushi Egypt, located in China-Egypt TEDA Suez Economic and Trade Cooperation Zone.

The visitors were impressed not only by the wide range of applications where fiberglass products could be used, varying from aerospace to household items, but also by the scale and mechanical automation of the manufacturing site and the advanced technology.

In the workshop with constant temperature and humidity, some curious students asked the Egyptian workers about the functions and uses of various machines. Meanwhile, at the assembly line, some others recorded the visiting moments with their mobile phones.

Nearly half an hour's visit enabled everyone to get basic hold of fiberglass production steps from raw materials to finished products. They also learned that Jushi Egypt fully possesses the independent core technology of fiberglass production and has trained a large number of professional workers in Egypt.

"Chinese manufacture is really amazing and it shows how powerful science and technology are," Sandra Ghattas, an Egyptian student, told Xinhua during the tour inside the plant.

Accompanied by Wu Ping, general manager of Jushi Egypt, the students had a deeper understanding of the company's business structure, future plans for the plant and the characteristics of fiberglass production that requires high technology and large investment.

With the help of Jushi, Egypt has become one of the largest fiberglass producers and exporters in the world.

Established in January 2012, the large-scale fiberglass production base of Jushi Egypt covers a total area of 360,000 square meters, with an annual output of more than 200,000 tonnes, according to Wu.

"This is the first large-scale fiberglass production line built overseas by China, which has not only filled the gap of fiberglass manufacturing in the Middle East and North Africa region, but also pushed forward the internationalization strategy of China's fiberglass industry," Wu said.

After the tour, the students also experienced traditional Chinese calligraphy and paper cutting at the activity hall of the plant. Some of the artistical pieces read "New Year" and "Spring" in Chinese characters.

Afterward, on the stage of the same hall, some talented Egyptian students interested in and familiar with Chinese culture performed Chinese martial arts, dances and popular songs, marking a joyful conclusion of the memorable visit.

"I hope that through such activities, more young talents in Egypt can learn about China's advanced manufacturing technologies, and this is also a responsibility of our Chinese enterprises overseas," Wu told Xinhua, noting Egyptian students conversant with Chinese language are welcome to join Chinese-funded enterprises in Egypt.

"I will try my best to learn Chinese and I am looking forward to joining a Chinese enterprise one day for new experiences," said Wael.
