Chapter 5 [Li Yanbin]
Ten sieges of urban villages.
There seems to be a distance of less than two meters between the buildings.
Most of the people who live here are helpless renters and migrant workers.
Compared to the rent in the apartment complex, these places are obviously much cheaper, so these places are also mixed.
The most suffocating thing is that the house is densely packed, and the house type inside has also been transformed into a single room with a small space, and more than seventy percent of the rental houses can be said to have seen the light of day.
There is no light all day long.
This is not alarmist, people who have lived in this environment for a long time.
It is easy to cause a certain degree of psychological oppression, causing people's personality and even psychology to become gray.
Gradually, people will feel that they have lost their direction in the vision of life things.
Coupled with the pressure of work, people will become more and more uncomfortable, their minds will fall into confusion, and people will always be confined to a small room.
Smack.
A cigarette was lit slowly, then wafted around the room.
Li Yanbin, who was drained by the night shift, was lying on the bed, and the washing machine on the balcony was spinning and humming.
He is an aircraft maintenance technician, or maintenance in the industry.
This industry is extremely special and glamorous to say, but it is actually much more tiring than you imagined.
However, only they know how deep the hole is in this industry.
Either you're in the tarmac in the rain or you're staying up all night in the middle of the night.
Every day, in front of tens of millions of dollars of civil airliners, from the bottom of the tire pressure, texture wear, nitrogen consumption of shock absorbing pillars, and even every square meter of the plane has to be checked.
Bird strikes, potholes left by lightning strikes.
In winter, it is also necessary to carry out de-icing protection, and the cold winter freezes so that your hands are cracked.
Even the most comfortable electronics technician in the cockpit is under tremendous pressure on the navigator, autopilot, cockpit electronic instrument panel blocks, and various checks.
From inflating the tires, to replacing the instrument panel, to even adjusting and repairing the cabin seats, every detail needs to be signed.
In order to obtain the right to sign, you have to go through a variety of academic assessments.
The all-English manual, the prohibitive maintenance manual, and the dense work order inspection items are Li Yanbin's daily work.
When the heavy rain came, the plane landed as before.
The ground staff can only wait on the tarmac in the heavy rain, if you don't wear raincoats in advance at this time, then sorry to work in the rain.
Because airplanes are always more important than people.
A can of lubricating oil can cost hundreds or thousands, tens of thousands of tires can be repaired, and tens or even nearly 100,000 parts can be replaced.
The working conditions are hard, the work requirements are harsh, how many turns each screw is turned, and how many pounds of force are used.
Even after a tiring day's work, I don't dare to turn off my phone when I get home.
Even a phone call at three a.m. can make you jump out of bed in the middle of the night and sweat on your forehead.
Because if the aircraft fails, it will cause great losses to the airline, and there may even be an even more terrible possibility of causing aviation accidents.
Then all the people who have been on the plane for maintenance and inspection can't run away from the relationship.
And who would have thought that such an important job would only cost thousands of dollars?
There are 985 high-achieving students, 211 undergraduates, and even junior college students from civil aviation technical colleges.
They only recruit students with civil aviation counterparts, because of the technical threshold of the work, it is difficult for people who don't understand anything to step into this industry.
Contrast the glamorous so-called flight attendants and the enviable flight pilots.
The status of aircraft maintenance personnel is extremely low, and the salary and position make people doubt their lives, which completely subverts Li Yanbin's imagination.
He has been in the industry for three years, and today when he returned home in a heavy rain, pushed open the cramped rental house and entered the door, he suddenly had the illusion of doubting life.
What are you doing here?
What the hell am I doing?
Li Yanbin smoked the cigarette silently, he sat there expressionlessly, his eyes glazed and his mind scattered.
He looked at the empty room and began to realize that his life was trapped here, and there was no way out.
Every time I come home, there are always people who think how good their job is, working at the airport, airline company, repairing airplanes.
Li Yanbin couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly.
If you think about it carefully, it's really better to go to New Oriental to learn a chef, maybe you can also fry a few small stir-fries and open a shop.
The university I went to was in vain.
Around classmates and friends, married, married, working, doing business.
His eyes moistened slightly, he looked up at the ceiling and swallowed.
What to do?
Resign?
What kind of job are you looking for?
He rubbed his head a little tired and haggard, and aimlessly opened the circle of friends.
Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and a circle of friends came into his eyes, and it was a picture of a restaurant overcrowded, and business was excellent and super hot.
And the reason why it was photographed and posted to Moments is mainly because there is a particularly interesting and funny place in it.
That is, the two restaurants next to it are very cold, and they also posted a recruitment notice, saying that they are recruiting chefs (Master Li recommends preferred!)
And the banner that was pulled up outside the restaurant full of trouble in the circle of friends was the sentence "Welcome Chef Wang, who has extraordinary cooking skills from Master Li, to be the chef of our restaurant, and it will be 20% off this week." 】
Li Yanbin gasped, he almost thought he was wrong.
He has an impression of these three words, Master Li, a few days ago, someone posted a thousand paper cranes in the circle of friends, saying that he finally bought it after queuing for half a month, and said that it was a pity that he was not selected.
Because he specifically mentioned queuing for half a month, he was still a little curious at the time.
Thought it was something.
It turned out that it was actually a fortune teller, and I immediately felt a little ridiculous and unbelievable.
Li Yanbin remembered that he seemed to still pay attention to the fortune teller's Weibo, and he opened Weibo curiously but was stunned.
"Gone?"
"It's gone!"
He directly searched for the word "Master Li" on Weibo, and suddenly it seemed that a new world had opened.
A lot of related Weibo content popped up.
From the fire in Times Square, to the follow-up concert incidents, and the soaring top of singer Cao Zhibin's new song chart, it has won hundreds of thousands of collections in one fell swoop.
Finally, Li Yanbin found the new Weibo "I really don't know how to tell fortunes"
What surprised him a lot was that the influence was more than 100,000 fans in the past, and at that time he thought that he had brushed out fake zombie fans.
I didn't expect it to rise to more than 600,000 now.
After re-following the browsing, he finally understood what that circle of friends just now meant.
[What is the meaning of all roads leading to Rome?]
What kind of occupation are you doing?......
Have you ever wondered if your job is really right for you?
【……】
[If you're still hesitating, if you're still confused, why don't you give yourself a chance?]
[Maybe what awaits you will be a new life!]
Li Yanbin squinted his eyes and smoked silently, as if he had an indescribable absurd will at this moment......
