Chapter 15: Someone with Love
"Mediocre ability...... Lackluster...... mediocrity...... Rice pit wine bag ......"
In early spring, the rainy season is falling. In the office of the chairman of the Lorraine Industrialists Union in Mason, Weiss looked through two stacks of job registration forms one after another, at first glance, there are many talents, but there are actually very few that can be seen, and what is even worse is that this is still screened and submitted by the HR team, so it can't help but lead people to reverie: Could it be that this group of HR is born blind, and the good conditions are screened, and what is left is poor?
Adhering to the principle of "no investigation, no voice", Weiss wanted to come to the job registration forms that had been brushed off, thinking that he would find a few "fish that slipped through the net", but when he took them and flipped through them, he found that they were even more difficult to read. Some of them are illegible and inexplicable, some of them are inexplicable and inexplicable, and some of them simply fill in the basic personal information, skills, expertise, qualifications, and ideas are all blank. In order to avoid missing the kind of technicians and skilled workers who are skilled and experienced but not good at writing or can't write, Weiss also specially told the team in charge of recruitment, asking them to provide free ghostwriting services when collecting information, and not to use conversation and expression as the main criteria for evaluating job applicants.
Even so, the situation of "recruiting troops" for several months has not been satisfactory.
After reading the latest batch of personnel selection materials and the latest financial report, Weiss couldn't help but feel that he couldn't try it out. This kind of work is similar to commanding troops to fight, in that it is necessary to probe the enemy's situation, formulate strategies, mobilize morale, and arrange supplies, and pay more attention to the accumulation of troops on weekdays -- the quality of soldiers, the role of noncommissioned officers, the ability of officers, and the tacit understanding and tenacity of the troops all depend on the quality of training and running-in. There is also an essential difference between the two, that is, as a commander of the troops, under normal circumstances, the three do not have to worry about the source of personnel replenishment and baggage, at most as long as they manage the supply allocation and transportation of the jurisdiction, but the industry needs to make decisions from beginning to end. Nowadays, although those financial institutions and consortia continue to provide funds, these are after all the money that has a price and a cost, and in this era when there is no concept of debt-to-equity swap, the borrowed money will have to be repaid with interest in the end.
As early as the autumn and winter, led by several major member companies such as the Clumber-Haysen plant and Wise Industries, the Lorraine Industrialists Alliance has launched a large-scale talent selection and recruitment. In order to achieve a wide range, practical operation, and detailed screening, the amount of manpower and funds consumed is not a small amount, and they are attracting outstanding talents with favorable income conditions, and the investment in the entire talent project can even be compared with the canal project. Such a large amount of expenditure, if it is apportioned to the old iron of the Lorraine Industrialists Alliance, even if most people can grit their teeth and survive, it will inevitably have immeasurable side effects on the overall situation of cooperation and development in the initial stage. Therefore, in addition to the personnel costs drawn from the membership dues paid by the members of the alliance, the shortfall will be paid in advance by the Clumberheitam factory, and then the apportionment amount will be determined according to the actual number of talents recruited by each member enterprise in the later stage.
I was bored in the office for most of the day, and I finally read all kinds of reports and materials, although I didn't vomit, I continued to burn my brain, and I felt that I urgently needed to go out to cool down. Outside the window, the rain is still falling, so what's the matter? Wash and comb, get dressed, put on a coat, take out a long umbrella, and go out into the street to breathe.
Mason is the capital of the federal state of Lorraine, with a large population and prosperous economy, as a town, it has a history of more than a thousand years, but as a city, it is still a "new ding" - the industry is not as good as the Wallens in the north, the military value is not as good as the Slien in the southwest, and the cultural heritage can not be compared with Elster, the thousand-year-old king capital of ancient Lorraine.
Thanks to the economic and social role of the main railway line, the city has developed into a large city with a population of 200,000 that has never been seen in the history of Lorraine in just half a century. After the war, the Lorraine people simply moved the capital to Mason, after which it was firmly established as the political and economic center of Lorraine, and it was also the core transportation hub and the place where medical and educational resources were most concentrated. Here, the spacious streets, neat buildings, and clean and tidy appearance of the city all show the vigorous vitality of the great industrial era......
Walking in the rain is suitable for relaxation and thinking about life. Entrepreneurship is a long process, but it is better to have a clear goal and plan, you only need to go on unswervingly, and make some adjustments while walking, no accident, you can always go to the other side of success, and feelings are like things in another dimension, and the so-called goals and plans are not worth a "casual fate". Mr. Long Clumber Haysom graduated from the Gaston Military Academy for more than two years, needless to say, the experience of crawling and rolling on the battlefield, the experience of danger, the world has also seen all kinds of situations, human feelings have also been seen, only the love between men and women, from the past life to this life is still a blank slate, the desired fate is inseparable, and the fate is not far-fetched, so that he sometimes can't help but ask himself: Could it be that this is the legendary Tiansha Lone Star Destiny?
As he walked, Weiss noticed a number of men in shabby coats and tattered hats under the eaves of the street, either in groups or twos, alone, chatting, or in a daze, which was relatively rare before and during the war. In Weiss's view, the economic and social development of the Ulster Free Federation after the war entered a period of downturn that conformed to the laws of history, and the army cut expenditures and reduced soldiers on a large scale, resulting in a sharp decline in orders for the military industry and related industries, a large number of workers lost their jobs, and social instability increased...... Almost all enterprises that have moved into the wartime system must find a new position - whether to return to the old business and follow the rules, or take the opportunity to change tracks and seek breakthroughs; Those who are unemployed or on the verge of unemployment are looking forward to a stable new job, and the middle and high-end talents with relatively stable jobs - managers, engineers, technicians, etc., unless there is a reliable opportunity to change jobs, otherwise they will not change, and only a few people dare to take the initiative to find new opportunities in this special period, including many people who have the ability, ambition and character. It's just that it's not easy to select and screen these elite talents from the vast sea of people.
The idle men on the streets, presumably the unemployed as a result of factory layoffs, shutdowns, or even closures, pass the time here and try their luck at finding temporary workers. It is difficult to say that there are no good people among them, and perhaps some of them have already gone to the Union of Lorraine Industrialists to fill out a job registration form, but have been skipped because they do not have the appropriate skills or lack of experience or ability.
The huge Mason also has trade unions, metallurgical trade unions, textile trade unions, processing industry trade unions, transportation trade unions and some large-scale factory trade unions, these trade unions are independent, some operate efficiently and play a significant role, and some are loosely managed. In addition, the Mason Union Union Conference played the role of a general union of trade unions, fighting for the legal and reasonable rights and interests of local workers for many years, and organized large-scale activities such as strikes and demonstrations throughout history, but their efforts were ineffective during this widespread post-war depression.
As he walked through an alley, Weiss saw a group of children in plain clothes chattering and jumping into the alley, and he stopped to watch, and suddenly noticed a familiar figure. Isn't that Professor Xiao Yang? At the entrance of the alley opposite, she held a large paper bag and hunched over to hand out things to the children. Most of the children, who were thin and had vegetable faces, smiled and handed out cooked foods such as scones and dried cheese to each of them.
Weiss walked through the alley, and it wasn't until he got closer that Professor Yang spotted him.
"What a loving mother you are." Weiss smiled and said, "I saw the brilliance of great motherhood!" β
Professor Xiao Yang had just finished distributing the food, folded the empty paper bag, and explained in a soft voice: "I've been too busy with work recently, so I took a walk around here after work, and I saw that they were pitiful, so I brought them something to eat every day......
Weiss, noticing that a few of the children who had arrived late had not received food, looked at them with disdain, so he took out his wallet from his pocket and gave each of them a 100 kroner noteβa huge sum of money before the war, but now enough for two days' meals for an ordinary family.
"You will be a loving father in the future." Professor Xiao Yang looked at him with a smile.
Before that, Weiss had seen a courtesy smile from her at best, and for the first time he had seen her smile as delicate as a flower. I have to admit that a smile can make people more beautiful. In this special environment and atmosphere, he was a little fascinated when he saw her.
Professor Xiao Yang quietly watched him give money to the children who didn't receive food, and only when the last child walked away satisfied, did she greet him, "How are you doing?" β
"It's okay, it's just a little busy." Weiss replied. He looked at his watch, it was almost dinner time, so he sent an invitation to Professor Yang to have dinner together.
Professor Xiao Yang hesitated for a moment and said noncommittally: "It seems that the investigation of the parliamentary election is about to end, and more and more people are allowed to return to their original posts, and we may be able to leave in half a month...... It's time to go about your own business. β
The last sentence was undoubtedly a wedge, Weiss pondered for a moment and said: "If you still lead the internship research of the School of Geography and Geology in Lorraine this year, I mean if it is convenient, we will feel more down-to-earth and assured." After all, we have spent a lot of effort on talent recruitment during this period, but the situation is not ideal, and our most urgent need is that top experts and scholars like you can help. β
Professor Yang glanced at him, and although he did not accept the invitation to dinner, he walked side by side with him.
"I've heard that you have signed a total of 9 graduates from our university this graduation season, 4 of them are from the School of Geography and Geology, and there are also schools of metallurgy, mechanical engineering, and chemical engineering."
"It's too little, we think it's still too little." "Your graduates are the most sought-after 'supplemental force' in the industry, and we have only signed three percent of the more than 400 graduates, which is a pitiful ratio. β
Professor Xiao Yang said unhurriedly: "I remember that the Longmaier Group came to the Polytechnic University about 20 years ago to recruit, although the scene was very lively, and the treatment was good, but at that time they were not very famous, so only a few students were willing to sign contracts with them. Later, at the 20th anniversary party of graduation, I went to the Longmaier Group and stayed there, and now I have basically entered the management of the group, and the development of my career is no worse than that of my classmates who went to old companies such as Starry Sky, Valson, and Grumman. The first job after graduation is an important step in life, and everyone is very cautious, and signing 9 graduates is already a good start. As long as you persist for three or five years, you will definitely have the desired harvest. β
"If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, I understand this truth." Wei Si said calmly, "Most things in this world need to be done gradually, and we can't rush or hurry, but life is short, especially at our age, we always feel that time is running out, and many things want to be faster, faster." Some things, as long as you find the right opportunity and in the right way, it is still possible to break through the convention. β
Weiss said these words purely on the facts, but it seems that the speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional. Professor Xiao Yang was silent for a while, and suddenly gently grabbed Weiss's arm, although when attending a formal dinner or ball, men and women who are not familiar with him will also hold hands like this, and it is not strange for ordinary friends of the opposite sex to walk on the street to hold hands out of etiquette, but it always feels a little abrupt at this time.
At first glance, Professor Xiao Yang lowered his head, and Weiss didn't know what to say. The two walked like this for a while, and Professor Xiao Yang suddenly raised his head and said to him with a sweet smile: "I haven't been to see Little Candy for two weeks, can you come with me this weekend?" β
For work, as long as he did not go out, Weiss would return to Somsonas once every three to five days, sometimes only for one night, sometimes for two or three days. Now that the Lorraine Canal has been put into operation, it is convenient to get there by car and boat. This bite should be inherited, why is there a sudden rush to take the female pot friend to the fat family to meet the parents?
