Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 41
After a long time, Lei Lanting's voice came to mind on the other end of the phone.

"Old Lei, I am Dong Qiangqiang. How is your arm? Is it better?"

"The doctor gave a tetanus (shot). It's fine."

"That...you said about the brewery this morning..." Dong Qiangqiang asked for someone he didn't know well for the first time, his face was a little thin.But he had already placed Lao Lei in the column of trusted friends.

"Oh, that's it. I called the agency just now, but the person in charge of the agency is on vacation these days, so I might not have a reply until next week. I'll let you know as soon as I get an answer, don't worry, I Think about it."

"Okay, thank you so much." Dong Qiangqiang was very happy when he heard that there was a drama, "I'll invite you to dinner on the weekend."

"Hey, it's necessary to invite a meal. But then, I may have a big job on the weekend. I'll tell you when I'm sure." Lei Lanting suddenly became very mysterious.

"Big job? What is it?" Dong Qiangqiang couldn't help but be curious.

"I'll transfer right away, let's talk later."

Dong Qiangqiang was very unaccustomed to this chattering style of hesitant to speak up first, as if a fleshy bone was stuck in his mouth, it was obviously a good thing, but it made him uncomfortable.

When he was still thinking about Lei Lanting's words in his mind, Karina walked out of the next room with a pile of documents, picked out some of them and handed them over to Dong Qiangqiang, and asked, "Then what do you think? When should you start studying?"

"Well, the sooner you pay, the better."

"Has anyone told you about the process of learning to drive in Germany before?"

"No."

"Then let me briefly talk about the preparatory work you have to do in the early stage. First of all, you are going to attend a first aid training course. Many first aid agencies in the city can provide this kind of course, usually 8 hours, and the cost is about 50-60 Mark left and right, mainly to learn the first aid knowledge that drivers must master such as artificial respiration and cardiac resuscitation. After passing the examination, you will get a first aid certificate, and at the same time, you can also complete the vision test and take a driver's license photo required for learning to drive in these places. , there will be dozens of marks, but they are not expensive. After obtaining the first aid certificate, vision test results and photos, you can submit a driving school application at the Traffic and Vehicle Administration, pay the registration fee and driving cost, and then you can choose a driving school The study has officially started. If you choose us, we can help you complete the process."

Dong Qiangqiang grabbed a piece of paper and quickly wrote down the points Karina mentioned on it.

"You mentioned just now that you have a Chinese driver's license. If you want to continue to use it in Germany, you must first notarize it, but you also need to pay the notarization fee and the document review fee, but I really don't know the specific cost, so I need to ask again. "

Dong Qiangqiang shook his head with a firm tone: "I'll learn again."

"You can pay the registration fee after submitting the materials to the traffic control bureau. The registration fee for our driving school has always been 80 marks." She smiled, "This price is cheaper than many peers."

Dong Qiangqiang nodded in agreement with a smile.

"Then is the study of traffic laws. In our driving school, you need to complete at least 18 hours of theory lessons." She said while picking up a yellow book as thick as a brick from a stack of books on the table, He turned out a thick folder from the stack of documents in front of him, and she gently opened the first page of the folder, "Here are the questions involved in the traffic law theory test, about 60 sets, you can learn by yourself after class. Inspections are mainly about traffic rules, signal identification, traffic common sense, and emergency hedging measures. Of course, we recommend that you master them all.”

Dong Qiangqiang took a quick glance and saw that there were 8-9 questions printed on the top page. There were three answers for each question, with single choice and multiple choice.He murmured in Chinese in a low voice: Do the Germans also talk about sea tactics?Isn't it always said that Germans are quality education?
"So much?" he pretended to complain.

Karina smiled and pulled out two more folders: "That's the first volume, and there are two more."

It turns out that the Germans also play the sea of ​​​​tactics.

"If you feel that you have mastered it very well, the driving school will provide 1-2 mock written tests. If you can pass the test each time, you can pay for the formal theory test."

After listening to her introduction to the written test, Dong Qiangqiang asked impatiently, "What about after passing the written test?"

"When you pass the written test, the next step is to study for the road test. We stipulate that students must complete more than 13 hours of driving lessons, and the cost of driving lessons will vary according to different roads, including night driving and day driving, both of which There are highways, general highways, federal highways, etc. different roads. When you successfully complete all driving lessons, you can take the official road test.”

Dong Qiangqiang quickly wrote it down without a word on the paper.

"The real road test is usually about 45-50 minutes. It will test everything you have learned in theoretical studies and driving lessons, so it is very strict." Karina paused, "Many people have good written tests, but the road test is very strict. There are not many people who can pass it at one time. This is the lack of emphasis on combining theory with practice in learning.”

When he heard her talk about "connecting theory with practice", Dong Qiangqiang suddenly felt like he was taking classes in China. He hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to write, trying hard not to let Karina see the smile on his face.

"All the fees mentioned above are generally within 1000 marks. Of course, if you need to retake the test, the fees will definitely exceed. Although our advertising slogan says that 999 marks will be included, it is only for those who study theory and driving lessons seriously. Students, our driving school is not a good choice for those who want to fool around." She paused and looked into Dong Qiangqiang's eyes, "Can you understand what I mean?"

Dong Qiangqiang nodded: "I will be very serious."

"Very good. Part of the written test fee, road test fee and driving lesson fee mentioned above will be transferred from the driving school to the German Technical Supervision Association, and you don't have to pay any more. In addition, there will be some special driving fees, but this is very Less, we generally don’t offer too many courses to explain and practice.”

"What if I fail the road test the first time?"

"If you fail the first test, the cost of the second test cannot exceed 5 times the cost of a normal driving, so you don't need to worry too much. The most important thing is to be serious! Now many people think that the German driving test is difficult, and they run to Next to the Netherlands, Belgium to study, hey, even learning to drive is lazy..."

Dong Qiangqiang thought for a while: "What about study time?"

"We are more flexible here, we can learn from 9:18 am to 999:[-] pm. In addition, we will also organize some driving skill improvement classes to learn to deal with unexpected situations in the test. Of course, the cost will be higher than ordinary driving lessons. , not included in the [-] marks."

Karina took a sip: "Finally, there is an extreme situation."

"extreme?"

"If a student has not passed the road test for the second time, he will be required to go to a designated institution to conduct a comprehensive test of intelligence, vision, logic and judgment before the third road test to see if he is suitable for learning to drive. If it is deemed unsuitable, Then we will refund part of the fees to the students as appropriate."

"Then why don't you test these first?" Dong Qiangqiang asked curiously.

"Because a lot of people are very normal before they learn to drive," Karina explained with a smile, "especially some men, who believe they can handle everything, but often become overwhelmed when they encounter a problem and don't know how to do it. Is good."

Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang was a little confused, Karina smiled and stretched out her hand: "I hope you pass the exam in one go. Come on!"
