What he said makes some sense.
For a factory, it doesn't really matter if there's one more or one less person. If the scores are tied, just recruit them together.
But the leader didn't want to listen. The factory's expenses are fixed. Do you mean we can just hire one more person?
A monthly salary of more than 20 yuan may not seem like much for a person, but does Zhang Mingyu deserve it?
He is not the factory director's son, nor is he a brilliant operator who got the first place in the exam. Why should the factory create an extra position for him?
Moreover, this young man is outspoken and is bound to be a troublemaker. It will be too troublesome to recruit him.
The leader looked at Zhang Mingyu and smiled. "Everyone, take the exam fairly and impartially. We also said we'll only recruit 40 people, and generally, no exceptions can be made."
Isn't his implication obvious enough? If he has a background, then he can make an exception.
But none of the young men understood the hidden meaning behind his words. Zhang Mingyu thought he was giving in and became even more arrogant: "If you don't make any more moves, then Hu Bing and I will have another showdown. That's fair!"
It's simple to say.
The written test was fine. In order to prevent any accidents, the factory had actually prepared two sets of papers early in the morning.
If you need to retake the exam, bring two spare papers, find an empty room and arrange for personal supervision, and let Hu Bing and Zhang Mingyu write for two hours.
The operation is different. It requires preparing various chemical experimental supplies. Not only is it troublesome, but it also costs a lot.
The leader's smile faded.
What he wants is the confidence of this kid to be arrogant and the backing behind him, not whether it is fair or not!
He looked at the boy's mother, Zhang Laidi, and said, "The boy is arrogant. Sister, please try to persuade him. The factory won't change its orders overnight. Things like hiring an extra person or retesting are not acceptable."
This kid is shameless.
The leader of the recruitment office suppressed his anger and regretted giving Zhang Mingyu a chance.
He originally thought that this kid must have some skills at home since he was so arrogant and caused such a commotion in the methane plant. However, he didn't expect that when he tested him, he found out that he was just a fool!
It's bad luck. Don't talk too much to a fool and get yourself into trouble!
After all, Zhang Laidie has been in the workplace for many years. In fact, she understood what her leader said. She also wanted to come up with a resounding title so that the leader would be willing to give her the job.
But what good would she do without Chen Wei?
Zhang Lai Di was unwilling to give up. Who doesn’t want a formal job that pays 800 yuan?
She held down her restless son and looked at her leader: "Leader, this child is impatient. He must be inexperienced in taking exams. Why don't we take it again? We are not worse than him."
At this time, Hu Bing, another protagonist of the farce, hurried over.
His home was nearby, and he had seen the list a long time ago. He was ecstatic to know that he was accepted. He went home and prepared a sumptuous banquet to invite relatives to celebrate.
As a result, when the family banquet was halfway through, some onlookers said that Zhang Mingyu, who was one place lower than him, wanted to snatch his spot.
Fearing that he would lose the job he had just secured, he had no choice but to rush over. Now he couldn't stop sweating profusely on his forehead.
Hu Bing wiped his sweat and pretended to be calm: "Leader, we all took the same test and completed the same exam paper. It's fair, just and open. The ranking list has been released. How can we retake the exam?"
There were also people present who had passed the exam, so naturally they didn’t want to retake the exam, so they followed suit.
"Yeah, it all depends on your ability. Passing the exam is my own achievement. Why should that guy get an extra chance to take the exam?"
Some people who didn't pass the exam said with resignation, "I agree with retaking the exam, but it's not okay for just the two of us. Maybe someone was nervous and didn't perform well. We can also have ten more people take the exam together!"
The crowd began to express their opinions and suddenly became noisy.
"Comrades, listen to me, it is impossible to retake the exam..." The leader was so anxious that he couldn't suppress the noise of the crowd even if he shouted, and his neck was stained red.
After a few minutes of commotion, the factory manager came out.
There were several deputy factory directors, supervisors and others around him. They were dressed in Zhongshan suits and looked solemn and serious. Even without saying a word, they were imposing. The people felt the power of the officials and gradually fell silent.
The factory director was transferred from the match factory. His years of leadership had made him calm in the face of adversity. "Can anyone tell me why so many people are gathered here?"
The director of the recruitment office quickly wiped his sweat and trotted over to briefly explain the situation:
"Our factory is hiring 40 gas compression operators. Zhang Mingyu scored 61 in practical and 51 in written exam. Hu Bing scored 62 in practical and 50 in written exam. Their total scores are the same, both ranked 40th. Hu Bing, who scored higher in practical, was given priority, so Zhang Mingyu is making a fuss."
He had nothing to do with the two people and spoke impartially, but he was a little annoyed by Zhang Mingyu's provocation, so he added a stumbling block in his words.
Of course, what he said was true.
The factory director nodded in understanding and raised his voice to say to everyone, "Comrades, doing well on the written test is definitely important. Only with a flexible mind can you contribute to your job."
After hearing this, Zhang Mingyu couldn't stop smiling and his chest almost reached the sky.
The factory manager praised him for his high score on the written test, and it seemed that he would be admitted soon!
"However, gas compression is dangerous. Practical skills are more important. If you are not careful, there will be a risk of explosion. For your safety, we admit those with high practical skills who are responsible for the work and the factory."
The factory director suddenly changed the subject and made his position clear.
This was a well-spoken statement, and the people present felt that it made sense.
Who would want a colleague to blow up the factory or get himself injured due to improper operation?
The factory manager then said to the head of the recruitment office, "You made a mistake too. Next time you recruit, have your employees write one more sentence: 30% of the score is based on the written test, and 70% is based on the practical work. Wouldn't that be better?"
The recruitment office leader didn't dare to say anything more and just nodded in agreement.
The factory director criticized all three parties and finally decided to hire Hu Bing.
Hu Bing's heart settled down and he started laughing.
Zhang Mingyu, who was standing by, felt extremely offended. How could he accept this outcome? After all the fuss, it had no effect?
He immediately yelled, "That's for the next exam. This exam doesn't say you'll admit the one with the higher practical scores. We have the same score. Either we're both accepted, or we have to retake the exam!"
A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.
Having been the factory manager for so many years, he thought no one would challenge his authority, but he didn't expect this young man to be so courageous.
The factory manager smiled and said, "Retesting is time-consuming and laborious. You two aren't so good that we have to retake the exam. My people did make mistakes, but I can choose not to recruit either of you."
Hu Bing and Zhang Mingyu were panicked at that time.
Who could have thought that the factory director was so cruel, impatient with the quarrel, and directly cut off the source of funds!
You're all ranked 40, right? You're a troublemaker, right?
Then don't recruit either of them. There are 39 new employees in the factory anyway, so one less won't be a big deal.
Hu Bing felt particularly wronged. He had done nothing. He was just preparing for the banquet at home. But when he came to the methane plant, his job was gone.
Zhang Mingyu lost his previous arrogance and finally showed a little respect in front of the factory director.
He thought he could manipulate the factory by making a fuss, but who in the factory was not an experienced person? How could he manipulate them?
