super energy power

Zhuang Yong and his workers gathered around a black bakelite phone, waiting for the moment when it would get through.

They are all employees of the county oil pipe factory. It has been closed for almost a year, and they can only rely on the halved salary of [-] yuan per month to make ends meet. Seeing advertisements about Dahua Industrial on TV and newspapers, no matter how calm people are, they can’t stand it. Living.

There were only four telephones in the whole factory. Zhuang Yong and the others found the old factory manager and started calling in the afternoon until night.

Everyone checked the phone number countless times, but they were still unable to get through.

A worker was tired, so he gave up his position to Zhuang Yong, and joked, "Now is the time to test you."

Everyone laughed in unison. They were all a little anxious and needed a moment to relax.

Zhuang Yong picked up the phone and dialed the first number gently without even looking at it.They have been dialing the number for half a day.

Still busy.

Zhuang Yong is not surprised, today's phone call seems to have only this one tone.

After hanging up, Zhuang Yong started to dial the second number, and said with a soft smile, "We will always get through."

"You're lucky."

"I've always been lucky." Zhuang Yong shook his hand, and when he was about to hang up the phone, he realized that the voice was different.

Just at this time, a sweet female voice came from the microphone: "Hello, Dahua Industrial."

Zhuang Yong coughed hard, and hurriedly said: "Hello, our Jiaming oil pipe factory workers, we want to work overseas, is that okay?"

The workers who were still talking and laughing all quieted down with serious faces.

The sweet female voice said kindly: "Is it an individual or a group?"

"A group, let's call it a group. We have a total of 300 people."

"Okay, please tell me your education background, professional rank, and the jobs you are good at." The phone call was very detailed.Compared with the travel expenses of hundreds of people, the phone bill is obviously much cheaper.

Zhuang Yong listened and memorized, and the workers around him stood on tiptoe to watch.

It took about 5 minutes for Zhuang Yong to hang up the phone reluctantly.I wrote down half a piece of paper.

Someone behind who couldn't see the record shouted: "What's in it?"

"There are a lot of requirements." Zhuang Yong picked up the paper, stood on a chair, and said: "First of all, we are from the oil pipe factory. Foreign countries only need to lay oil pipes, not those who make oil pipes. Therefore, those who can lay oil pipes can go after passing the assessment. Those who make oil pipelines have to go through training before they can go. During the training period, food and lodging are included, and only one yuan is paid... Then, workers who go abroad have to learn foreign languages, and those who cannot pass the 'secondary' exam in half a year can only return to work in China..."

"Different types of work have different requirements." Another worker called out.Said: "It is estimated that there are not many people who can go."

"We are engaged in machinery, should we also learn to lay oil pipes?"

Zhuang Yong looked up and saw that he was the man who repaired machine tools in the factory. He immediately said, "Mr. Liu has a senior professional title. If he passes their assessment, he will be able to work. However, as others have said, the main thing abroad is exploration, followed by It is engineering construction, although there are factories. But the number is very small, and finally it will be handed over to foreigners for operation, so the demand is low, and it is possible to arrange work in China.”

"How do you pay for domestic work?"

Another worker was surprised and said, "It's not necessarily where it is, maybe it's in the mountains. It's so far away, you want to go too?"

"Why don't you go?" Liu Gong stared and said, "Xiaozhuang, how do you count money abroad?"

Workers who were once ashamed to talk about money have long been crushed by the burden of life.

Zhuang Yong sighed, and said: "100 yuan plus allowance. There is no allowance for the first year. In the future, it depends on whether you want to enter Dahua Industrial. If you go in, it will be 0 yuan a month."

The 1989 yuan in 100 is not as much as in 1987.Inflation for two consecutive years has reduced the purchasing power of banknotes by more than half.The salary increase of enterprises and institutions across the country is also carried out along with inflation, but the speed is naturally much slower. Nowadays, the quality of life of people who are paid is generally declining.

The discontinued oil pipe factory only has 100 yuan per month, Liu Gong is still tempted, and said: "[-] yuan is also going, you can't just stay like this."

An older person persuaded: "Liu Gong, you also have old and young, what if you go too far?"

"How can I stay at home if I don't have money? I don't want to set up a stall?" You can still make some money by setting up a stall, but most workers can't save face.

Zhuang Yong looked at the retreating people, shook his head, and said, "If you want to go, you can go there. There are also exams in China, and you have to wait for foreign workers to be selected before choosing domestic workers..."
