The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 7: The Temporary Worker’s Fault

The Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant has several thousand employees and is considered a relatively large factory even in the capital area.

In later automobile factories, departments generally staggered their meal times to avoid the cafeteria being too busy.

However, in this era, most factories have unified working and lunch times, and when the time comes, everyone flocks to the cafeteria.

Everyone was holding either an aluminum lunch box or an enamel cup, making the noise of clinking and clanging, making the place very lively.

Jiang Hui followed Liao Chengwen and lined up at the braised pork window.

Although everyone wanted to eat meat, there were not many people in the line, and it seemed that most of them were young people who were not married yet.

Soon, it was Liao Chengwen and Jiang Hui's turn.

The braised pork, which costs 1.5 yuan per portion, looks delicious.

This price is not expensive, but it is definitely not something that ordinary people can afford on a regular basis.

Jiang Hui also understood why there were fewer people in this team.

One serving of braised pork, one serving of boiled Chinese cabbage, and three taels of rice.

The total cost was one yuan and sixty-two cents, plus three taels of meat coupons, three taels of grain coupons, and one vegetable coupon.

Liao Chengwen paid the money for both of them, and they each paid for their own tickets. Jiang Hui didn't say much.

When it comes to treating others to a meal, the relationship slowly develops with both parties giving and receiving.

"Xiao Jiang, the teaching in our school is so advanced now. Even engine fault analysis and disassembly are taught in such depth?"

After devouring most of the braised pork and rice, Liao Chengwen began to chat with Jiang Hui.

Even though he has a good income, he doesn't often eat braised pork.

Jiang Hui followed suit and enjoyed his first lunch at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant with relish.

"In the past few years, the professional courses in school basically did not teach anything. Many people could not even learn mechanical drawing, and could not understand courses like "Principles of Mechanics" at all."

"For courses like 'Geometric Precision', 'Engineering Mechanics', and 'Calculus', more than half of the students just don't understand what they are talking about."

"The teachers are helpless and basically only teach the basics."

"I pestered various teachers to learn those professional knowledge after class."

What Jiang Hui said was nine-tenths true and one-tenth false.

Most of his classmates were recommended to go to college before they even finished junior high school, so they must not be able to understand the professional university courses.

And it is true that he pestered teachers for advice and learning.

But there are some things that even the teacher doesn’t know, and it’s obviously not something that can be learned by just pestering them to learn.

However, Liao Chengwen would definitely not distinguish them one by one, and there was no way for him to distinguish them so clearly.

"The level of students who graduated in recent years is indeed uneven. Some of them, like you, have learned real skills, but many people have only been muddling along for two or three years."

"For example, Lin Tiansheng from our department graduated from Huaqing University a few years ago, but he didn't even finish elementary school before going to university."

"You should be careful when dealing with him in the future."

Liao Chengwen felt quite emotional when thinking about the graduates who entered the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant in recent years.

The key is that there are people like this under him.

"Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me."

The two chatted while eating. Liao Chengwen briefly introduced the relevant personnel of the technical department, and Jiang Hui also had a preliminary impression in his mind.

When he returned to the office in the afternoon and got to know everyone, Jiang Hui had completely started his working career.

Jiang Hui's wonderful performance at the production site in the morning, with the publicity of Chen Chenxing, the "big mouth", naturally spread quickly throughout the technical department.

The old employees who originally did not take Jiang Hui seriously could not help but adjust their attitude towards Jiang Hui.

"Engineer Jiang, I feel that you are very familiar with cars, especially the knowledge related to vehicle maintenance, which is richer than anyone I know." "Can you teach me when you are free?"

Although Chen Chenxing is a little unknown in the technical department, his emotional intelligence is actually not low.

He has never been particularly interested in technical work.

However, the appearance of Jiang Hui made him realize that he could consider learning some car maintenance knowledge.

If I can use my connections to get a driver's license by then, I can completely change my career and become a driver.

Whether in 1978 or throughout the s, being a driver was definitely a very popular "golden rice bowl".

In "Ordinary World", when Tian Xiaoxia's mother Xu Aiyun was bringing Tian Runye and Li Xiangqian together, she said, "Xiangqian's career is good. Don't you listen to what others say? In our mountainous area, once the steering wheel turns, I wouldn't change it even if I was given a county magistrate!"

As the "second generation of officials" in Yuanxi County, it should be easy for Li Xiangqian to enter the system and work as a civil servant.

However, when he made his career plan, he chose the profession of driver.

In Li Xiangqian's opinion, stepping on the accelerator and hearing the car roar is much more comfortable than sitting in the office and drinking tea.

Li Xiangqian's idea represented the views of most people at that time. Hao Hongmei also said, "Driving is the most popular in our mountainous area."

Everything is inferior, only the driver is good. This can be said to be the consensus of the people in Yuanxi County, and even the mainstream value of young people.

In the movie "Bon Voyage", Chen Baoguo plays Andele, a young truck driver who drives a Yellow River JN162 truck.

In the 80s, truck drivers had a high social status and high income.

Therefore, Andele can't help but be a little proud and ostentatious.

In an era when cargo distribution was uneven and logistics was not smooth, cargo owners all begged drivers to haul cargo, and Andele was happy to see it happen, picking up some cargo on the way and earning some extra money.

Of course, whether you can take it along depends on your mood, and the owners will serve you delicious food and drinks.

The above is the story in the work of art, and the real situation is actually roughly the same.

Therefore, if Chen Chenxing could really become a driver, it would definitely be a very good choice.

However, the threshold for becoming a driver in this era is not as low as that for driving Didi in later generations.

Since cars break down frequently, today's drivers have to know how to repair them.

Otherwise you won’t be able to finish this meal.

In some places, you even have to go to a technical school to learn how to drive. The program at a technical school is two years, and students not only learn driving skills, but also maintenance skills.

You can only graduate if you have learned how to drive and repair cars.

Drivers who drive long distances will carry a tool box and a spare parts box so that they can fix any problems they encounter along the way.

This driver's license learning process can screen out a large number of people.

"I'm only half-baked at this, and I just happened to come across the content of the meeting today."

Although Jiang Hui felt that Chen Chenxing was reliable, this was their first contact today, so he would definitely not agree easily.

The latter probably knows that it is not so easy to learn real skills, so today he is just saying hello and will work hard in the future.

"Xiao Jiang, you are right. There is something wrong with the oil pump. The Internal Combustion Engine Factory has already admitted it."

When it was almost time to get off work, Liao Chengwen came up to Jiang Hui with a smile on his face and told him about the follow-up progress of the line shutdown in the morning.

"The oil pumps are all new, and only one batch has problems. I guess there was a flaw in the processing of one of the components?"

Liao Chengwen's words did not surprise Jiang Hui at all.

"That's right. A temporary worker installed a component inside the oil pump upside down, causing the oil output to be less than 10% of the normal level."

Jiang Hui: ...

Is it the temporary worker’s fault again?
Is this thing also inherited?
