Chapter 54: The Man from Germany (4)
After an afternoon, Goering finally understood: this boy was very ambitious, to the point of being jaw-dropping.
Although the style of the Italian army is obviously not comparable to that of the iron-blooded Germany, the Italian army is still the army, not comparable to the German civil aviation, and the style of the German civil aviation Goering is very clear that he has many friends who work there.
Moreover, Goering could see that it was very inappropriate to use the word "hangerlangdang" to describe United Airlines, because the atmosphere of United Aviation was very serious and regular, and everything was permeated with a militarized management style, and if he hadn't known that this was a civil aviation base, he would have thought that he had come to the Italian Air Force base.
He whispered, "How did you do that?" This is very different from the style of the Italian army that I remembered, in fact, it felt stricter than the rules of the German air force...... You know, pilots tend to have a very high self-esteem and a loose style, and I didn't do a lot of things out of the ordinary at that time. ”
"Herman, what you see is just the appearance, these people are only temporarily obeying the rules here, I don't know if they are really convinced, and I have paid a great price for the current state."
Contini and the War Office agreed to transfer nearly 600 personnel, but in the first month only more than 100 pilots, mechanics and ground crews were transferred, nine of whom are said to have been fired by Contini, and many others have been warned for disobedience. Although this man is only 20 years old, this man is now not only turning the veteran politician Matteotti upside down in court, but also has an iron fist within United Airlines: he not only has complete human rights, but also controls the salary, and at the same time has a meticulous and strict management system.
Although there is an agreement with the War Department that employees cannot be arbitrarily dismissed without the approval of both parties, in fact, if these dismissed employees do not want to leave, they will not leave at all.
What kind of management is this?
At 7 o'clock in the morning, the report began to run laps, around the aviation base, 5 km! Then there is strength training, endurance training, queue training, and after a break at noon, it is the work in the aviation field, in fact, there is not much serious work in United Aviation at present, either repairing and maintaining the aircraft or flying the plane to maintain the state, and then Goering also saw the two 200-meter-high iron towers in the base, and he knew from the eyes of his pilots that they were used to train for parachuting, needless to say, all pilots had to practice parachuting again - this is not a good errand.
This is not so much work as completely militarized training, and this kind of training, which obviously starts from the basics, is not strictly suitable for this group of veterans, most of whom are in their 30s, and have dragged their families, but Contini still insists on doing so.
Reason?
The first is, of course, to maintain authority, the army is the most difficult place in the world to manage, without authority there is no system, without the system there is no combat effectiveness, no matter how good the equipment can not win the war, and Contini has never fought a war, not even served in the army, plus he is young, and when he can't use seniority, military exploits, and age to suppress this group of people, he can only use strengthening management to forge his authority;
The second is to maintain morale and state, the early pilots have very high requirements for physical fitness, not only good reaction ability, but also excellent physical strength, otherwise flying for a period of time can tire people half to death, once the spirit is lax or physical strength can not keep up, that is the situation of the plane crash and death - the military plane crash is good to explain, civil aviation every time the plane crashes and dies is a major accident, not to mention that in the future to carry passengers, mail, cargo, how can this situation occur?
So this group of personnel who retired from the army tasted the bitterness: the training system was stricter than the authentic Italian army, not only the boss was so perverted, but even Flavio, who was in charge of daily management, was so perverted - this was originally an officer who did not please his superiors and had a tough personality that did not look like an Italian, but he did not expect to be here after being kicked out of the army, which is really annoying.
"Herman, do you know, I have 600 people in consultation with the War Department, and now it is only a third, and two-thirds are still going through the formalities one after another, I heard that the process is not smooth, many people know that I am very strict here and start to retreat and don't want to come - they initially thought that this was a good place to spend their days, just coax me and play tricks to make me happy, and some people may still be thinking and hesitating, although I can provide more opportunities here, but it is also an adventure, They don't know what I'm going to meet in the future...... So, I have to give them a little bit of pressure and a sense of urgency. "And it is well known that the German military has the best sense of obedience and discipline, and I hope that their presence will effectively neutralize this atmosphere and at the same time create a sense of oppression on them." ”
Goering finally figured it out: this young master is not playing with tickets, this master is going to build a second air force that belongs to him and obeys him, which is really a fucking fantasy! This kind of strange thing only exists in a country like Italy in the world, right?
"I will do my best to do it, but I would like to have a more comprehensive brochure on what the Germans need to be subjected to, what kind of treatment they can be treated, and what punishment will be imposed in case of violation...... You know, the Germans are sometimes rigid to the extreme. ”
"That's fine, I'll give you a set of brochures before I leave, I've already made a German version beforehand." "There are almost 70 German engineers in the United Motorcycle Company, all of them working for me, and a group of employees will be coming next month, and I have a fascination with the discipline and obedience of the Germans, which the Italians lack the most!" ”
"What you said is really humorous, the Germans lack the imagination and realism of the Italians, and the war and production may be okay, but the life is not romantic enough, and the art is also bad, maybe the Austrians are slightly better."
"So I'm going to introduce the young single Germanic lad to the passionate Italian girls...... "which can be part of the treatment, come on, there's a big world, a relaxed atmosphere, good food and beautiful women." ”
"I'll do my best!" Goering quietly lowered his voice and said, "If you do this, will the Prime Minister and the bigwigs of the War Office be unhappy?" ”
"Not happy?" Contini's eyes widened, "It's all me paying for it, why should they be upset?" Why did they rush people out of the army, it was not that they were disgusted with their old age, complained a lot and spent money, why was I not happy that I did things for them as a wicked person? ”
Goering nodded, and then said sympathetically: "But I am afraid that you will lose a lot of money every year by doing this." ”
"yes...... Money is definitely going to be lost. Contini sighed, then said in a light tone, "But for me who wants to make a career, what I can solve with money is the small things." ”
This force is pretending to be ruthless enough! Hermann Goering was speechless and could only give a thumbs up.
In fact, he still didn't understand one thing: the reason why Contini wanted to introduce German elements was because he was afraid that in the future, the Air Force or Mussolini would directly swallow up all the forces he had worked so hard to build, and if he raised a group of Germans, it would not be so simple to swallow.
Contini is still very proficient in the principle of self-respect......
