Coupled with the continued warming of Sino-African relations in recent years more and more African traders into China the pursuit of their dream of gold. They purchase cheap Chinese goods shipped back to their own countries to sell high profit from the difference in African enterprises to invest in China from the perspective of the development in recent years, more and more areas of investment have also expanded, from the initial simple commodity trading start-up garment factories and foreign trade companies in China; from the wig industry, life goods industry to the catering industry and handicrafts, and grow rich businessmen in China and Africa grows ever wider.In China, the Africa traders crowded in some of the larger cities, like Shanghai, Beijing, Guang Zhou and other places, of which Guang Zhou is the first choice for African businessmen to do business in China has basically formed a considerable scale, and in Guang Zhou, such as Guang Zhou "Chocolate City" for Africans, are full of infinite temptation. Guang Zhou has become the nation’s largest merchant colonies in Africa, up to now has been about100,000resident African traders. Zhejiang Yi Wu International Commodity City,"have been expanding and perfecting its reputation is growing, the contact between China and African trade glittering".Therefore, this paper chose Guang Zhou and Yi Wu, two representative of the city as the entry point for business in China and Africa, in order to spy on the whole China and Africa businessman living in China and trade situation. The one hand, China’s African business to promote Sino-African non-governmental exchanges and the China-Africa economic and trade relations made a great contribution; the other hand, encounter many practical problems in China and Africa businessman, including the identity of the visa and local residents, marriage and family and so on.The simple view on the situation of African traders in Guang Zhou and Yi Wu in China, between them there are also significant differences. Therefore, not only do the overall status of businessmen in China and Africa are analyzed in detail, but also introduced the Guang Zhou business model and the Yi Wu business model, and both the similarities and differences.
