1343. Chief Engineer

Qin Shiou's smile suddenly became embarrassed, and he hurriedly said: "This big brother is joking, I am the little brother in our Chinese circle, right, Brother Donglei?" ”

Although he is self-conscious, he is not so stupid as to think that he can be the boss of the Chinese in Newfoundland. Besides, why should he be the boss? Being a Chinese boss and not paying less taxes, he still has to worry about some things.

Yan Donglei said with a smile: "Our Chinese circle is simple, how can there be any leaders and bosses?" ”

Qin Shiou nodded in agreement, and Yan Donglei continued: "However, speaking of which, Xiao Qin is indeed the most widely traveled among our people, and he has the most extensive contacts, so he is very suitable to be the core figure of our circle." ”

It's really the most feared 'but' in life, Qin Shiou sighed in his heart, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Donglei, don't tease me, there are a few big brothers here who are quite face-to-face, Brother Donglei will introduce me to me?" ”

Yan Donglei introduced him to him, and these people all joined the Newfoundland Chinese Mutual Aid Association, and when he said this, he encouraged Qin Shiou to join the association.

Qin Shiou said: "Brother Donglei, you know me, I don't like to get in the circle, but everyone needs my help, if I can help, then just ask, I will definitely do my best." ”

For this kind of mutual aid association, Qin Shiou knows very well, and he has to organize activities every three or five times to expand his network, if he joins it, there will definitely be people who want to know the Strauss family and the Bruce family through him, and he doesn't want to do this kind of thing.

Yan Donglei has a very high emotional intelligence, and seeing that Qin Shiou didn't want to participate in such a topic, he changed the topic and introduced a middle-aged man with dark skin but a chubby body: "This is a brother from Jiangsu and Zhejiang immigrants, he used to run a fishing farm in China, you can get to know each other." ”

Qin Shiou shook hands with him, this man looked like he was in his forties. When the results were introduced, he learned that he was a standard post-eighty-five, but he was only a little over thirty years old, not much older than him.

Pao Hai has a bold and humorous temperament, and after seeing Qin Shiou's surprise, he joked with his face: "I, I'm anxious and anxious." In addition, there is a lot of wind and sun on the sea, and it has become what it is now, but Brother Xiao Qin, your skin is well maintained. ”

Qin Shiou estimated that this was also due to the heart of the sea god, indeed, people begging for food at sea are easy to look old, and their skin is even more because of the sea breeze and the scorching sun, and it is finished early. Every time I go out to sea and come back, it's bright red, like a boiled lobster.

Looking at the bubble sea, Qin Shiou was quite used to it, he felt that this kind of skin tone was good, at least it looked good after being tanned by white people. Sha Ke and the others were sunburned for the first time they went to sea, and when they came back, they scared Qin Shiou, thinking that they had been splashed with paint.

Chatting and chatting, the two chatted about the past. At this time, Qin Shiou knew that Pao Hai and him were alumni. Both are graduates of Ocean University.

"What a coincidence, I'm class 08, what about you?" Qin Shiou smiled in surprise.

Pao Hai said: "I am much earlier than you, I am from the class of 04, and after graduating from college, I went to the ship to run the open sea." Later, I felt that it was not possible to run a long voyage, and it was too difficult to find a daughter-in-law. Then I want to engage in breeding, and by the way, I want to make an object. ”

"And then?" Qin Shiou asked with great interest.

"Alas, then there was no more, and until now, I haven't found my daughter-in-law......" Pao Hai said with a sad face. It made the group laugh.

Yan Donglei said: "Xiao Hai should be anxious about this matter, you look at Xiao Qin, they are all children and their fathers." ”

Qin Shiou comforted Pao Hai and said: "It's okay, Brother Hai, this is not in a hurry, and I couldn't find my daughter-in-law when I was holding silk before." ”

A group of people laughed again, and Yan Donglei said: "Xiao Qin, you are too ruthless with this knife." ”

Qin Shiou said: "It's okay, my senior brother will forgive me, right, senior brother?" ”

"If you help me find a daughter-in-law, I'll forgive you." Bubble Sea said depressedly.

Qin Shiou said with a smile: "This condition is too difficult, can I help you introduce a few high-quality fish fry?" ”

Yan Donglei said that soaking in the sea is also a fishing ground, Qin Shiou wanted to help him, and transporting fish fry was the best way he could think of.

The reputation of Daqin's fishing ground is well-known throughout North America, and Qin Shiou feels that Paohai must have heard of the reputation of his fishing ground, so he will definitely be very happy if he gives this help.

The result is not so, Pao Hai said with a wry smile: "I used to engage in fishery farming when I was in China, and this time I immigrated to Canada, I came to Canada as a skilled immigrant, and I no longer engage in aquaculture, and I don't have so much money." ”

Canada has interrupted investment immigration since the year before last and changed to talent introduction, which is also one of the reasons for Canada's economic downturn in the past two years. In fact, the Canadian economic crisis began a few years ago, but it was masked by the investment immigration policy, and the continuous investment provided a large number of jobs and tax revenues.

Qin Shiou asked, "Then what technology did you provide?" ”

Pao Haidao: "In terms of ocean, didn't I go to sea as soon as I graduated?" Later, after hard work, he achieved the position of chief engineer, and it was through this immigrant that he came. ”

Hearing this, Qin Shiou was surprised, and he asked in surprise: "Are you the chief engineer?" ”

Pao Hai smiled: "Yes, I work my own, and I have better luck, so that's it." ”

He knew the reason why Qin Shiou was surprised, it takes fifteen years for ordinary seafarers to become chief engineers, and it takes ten years for college students to become chief engineers directly after graduation, and every time he introduces himself as chief engineer, some people are surprised and have become accustomed to it.

According to industry regulations, senior seafarers must first serve as a third-pipe intern on board the ship for 12 months, and if they perform well, they can be renewed to be a third-pipe trainee. He has been in the third management of the ship for 18 months, and his performance is good, and he can be the second manager if he renews his certificate. He has served as the second manager of the ship for 12 months, and his performance is good, and he can be promoted to the chief manager after passing the examination of the Maritime Safety Bureau.

Finally, after 18 months of service as a ship's chief manager, he performed well and passed the examination of the Marine Safety Bureau before he could be promoted to chief engineer.

In this way, it takes five years to become a chief engineer, even if it takes five years at the earliest, and this start starts with senior seafarers.

Qin Shiou guessed that he should be very good when he was in college, he has the best university diploma in China's marine industry, and it is estimated that he entered the navigation company as a senior seafarer.

It's also a coincidence, Qin Shiou's Melon Princess lacks a chief engineer, and Pao Hai happened to appear, he will probably start going to sea this winter or next spring, if Zheng Yuhui is suitable, just to fill this position.

However, this kind of thing can not be rushed, the chief engineer is a very important position, responsible for the machinery of the entire ship, the most important thing is that the ship can not have problems, as long as the ship is okay, no one will be fine, once the ship has an accident, the loss is not just a matter of money.
