To solve Cannot choose between the following variants of com.facebook.react:react-native:0.71.0-rc.0: error you need to add resolutionStrategy in your android/build.gradle file in allprojects.configurations.all will resolve this error.

Solution 1: Add resolutionStrategy

You need to use React Native version From your node_modules folder. To do so you need to add resolutionStrategy in your android/build.gradle as given below.

def REACT_NATIVE_VERSION = new File(['node', '--print',"JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync(require.resolve('react-native/package.json'), 'utf-8')).version"].execute(null, rootDir).text.trim())


buildscript {
     ......
     ......
     ......
}
    
    
allprojects {
    configurations.all {
          resolutionStrategy {
            force "com.facebook.react:react-native:" + REACT_NATIVE_VERSION
          }
    }
     ......
     ......
     ......  
}

And now, sync this Gradle file and then rebuild your React Native app and now you will no longer face the above error.

Solution 2: add exclusiveContent

If resolutionStrategy.force not worked for you then You need to add exclusiveContent in your allprojects.repositories.exclusiveContent in your android/build.gradle file.

buildscript {
     ......
     ......
     ......
}
    
    
allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
         exclusiveContent {
             filter {
                 includeGroup "com.facebook.react"
             }
             forRepository {
                 maven {
                     url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
                 }
             }
         }
       
       }
     ......
     ......
     ......  
}

Now, Sync your Gradle file and then re-run your project will resolve this error.
