Chapter 515: Only when you are beaten by society can you recognize yourself
"Son, why don't you find a new job?
I'll ask Hao Qiang's father if he can help you get into Pengcheng's company."
Chen Zhen saw that his son had been looking frustrated recently, and after dinner, he finally couldn't help but bring up the matter of work.
Chen Ming and Hao Qiang were classmates in junior high school. During the high school entrance examination, Chen Ming was admitted to the first high school, while Hao Qiang only got into the second high school.
At that time, the villagers often compared the two, and Chen Ming was always regarded as a role model by everyone.
Later, Chen Ming was admitted to Guangxi University of Electronic Science and Technology, while Hao Qiang made a comeback in the college entrance examination and was admitted to the 985 Sun Yat-sen University.
Later, Hao Qiang's development trajectory was like a legendary novel, which was extremely enviable.
After graduation, Chen Ming went to work in an electronics factory in Dongguan.
Two years ago, he had some conflicts with the workshop leaders, and since then he has been "sabotaged". He has never been transferred to the technical center and can only stay on the front line as a technician.
Last month, he was bullied by the workshop leader again. He finally couldn't stand it anymore and resigned in anger, without even leaving himself the opportunity to find a job while still working.
As a result, after resigning, I found that it was not easy to find a job.
He has been working in the workshop for four years since graduation. Although he is familiar with the basic technology, he has not encountered too in-depth technical issues.
If you ask him to design a product, he has no idea where to start.
My classmates have already established themselves in design positions.
Chen Ming knew that given his current situation, it would be too difficult for him to sit in an office and do design, so he could only continue to look for a position as a front-line technician.
"Forget it, you don't have to worry about this. I'll find it myself." Chen Ming directly rejected his father's suggestion.
More than ten years ago, my family and Hao Qiang's family had a conflict over the ridge of the field.
In recent years, Hao Qiang's family has become prosperous, especially after Hao Jianjun became the village committee member, people no longer care about these old things.
In recent years, the family has made some small fortune, but they still rely on others and do not care about it. They rely on Hao Qiang's family.
But Chen Ming didn't want his parents to come and ask for help at all. After all, he couldn't bring himself to do that.
"It's not easy to find a good job these days." Chen Zhen sighed, his tone filled with helplessness and worry.
Whenever he met Hao Jianjun, he would smile flatteringly and try his best to say nice things.
But he is awesome and has a good son.
Moreover, Hao Jianjun has made a lot of contributions to the village over the years, and I admire him very much.
"Dad, even if I ask for help, I can't ask for help to join Pengcheng's company." Chen Ming shook his head in distress, with a bit of helplessness and self-mockery in his tone, "Dad, do you think it's so easy to get into the headquarters of Future Technology Group?
Graduates from Qingbei are all scrambling to get in. They don’t recruit graduates from non-985 universities unless they are operators.
Not to mention the headquarters, even the Future Technology Group branch in our industrial zone has a frighteningly high threshold. How can it be so easy to get in? "
When he said this, his voice lowered a little, as if he was talking to himself.
He knows his own level best.
Request to enter the headquarters of Future Technology Group?
He didn't even dare to think about it.
My family and Hao Qiang's family are just from the same village, not relatives, and our relationship was not very good in the past.
After Hao Qiang's family became rich, he and Hao Qiang had become two different people and were not on the same level at all.
Go and ask them?
How could that be embarrassing? Chen Ming couldn't get over it.
“College students from our village can work in the auto parts and motorcycle factories in the industrial zone as long as they work hard.
How far you can go depends on your own ability.
That's what Qiangzi said." Chen Zhen looked at his son, feeling mixed emotions.
He knew that his son was holding back a lot of energy and was unwilling to give in, but reality was just so cruel.
Having been beaten by society, isn't your mind still clear?
If you can ask someone to solve the problem, then go for it. It is always better than having no one to ask for help.
Chen Ming was silent for a while, staring down at his hands, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the corner of the dining table.
He knew in his heart that his father was right, but he just couldn't let go of his damn pride.
He doesn't want to be looked down upon.
"Dad, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I really don't want to go to Hao Qiang's family and ask for help." Chen Ming finally spoke, his voice a little hoarse. "I'll submit my resume and try looking for a job myself. If it doesn't work out, I'll see when the time comes."
"Well, it's up to you."
Chen Zhen knew that his son still hadn't gotten over the hurdle in his heart.
After thinking about it, I decided not to help him with this kind of thing. Let him suffer a little more on his own. Maybe it’s a good thing.
The night outside the window is dark, and the lights of the vegetable greenhouses in the distance are still flickering sporadically.
After dinner, the family went to bed early as they had to get up early the next morning to pick vegetables.
Chen Zhen stayed at home for a day and then had to go on a long journey again. He opened an electric motorcycle shop in another place.
I originally wanted to let my son do this, which would be much better than working, but he just didn't want to, thinking that his college education was a waste.
Chen Zhen also knew that running an electric motorcycle shop was not a long-term solution. Hao Qiang had also mentioned this, saying that by around 2015, there might be no profit.
But in the past two years, the profits of Future electric motorcycles are still very good, and the supply exceeds the demand, but Future Technology Group refuses to expand its production capacity.
According to the current trend, electric motorcycles will still have a large profit margin after 2015.
However, this is only limited to the Future Electric Motorcycle authorized stores. Other peers are not doing so well, and many of them are losing money.
With the hot sales of future electric motorcycles, many copycat products have appeared on the market.
Chen Zhen and other future electric motorcycle shop owners now have an additional task - to monitor whether there are any copycat shops appearing in the surrounding area.
Once discovered, they must report it immediately.
After all, no one wants to watch such a good business being ruined by counterfeit stores.
The next day,
When Chen Ming went to help with work in his vegetable greenhouse, he happened to meet Hao Qiang's father on the road. He greeted him warmly: "Uncle Jun, good morning!"
Hao Jianjun was a little surprised to see Chen Ming, and asked with a smile: "Hey, Mingzi, aren't you working outside?
Why are you back to help?
Well, that's fine too. Instead of working for someone else, it's better to come back and help your dad open the shop."
Chen Ming smiled, avoiding the issue of being fired and helping his father open a shop, and just said vaguely: "Uncle Jun, I've been back for a while since I resigned.
My hometown is developing well now, not worse than the city."
Hao Jianjun nodded, with a hint of pride in his tone: "That's right, our industrial zone is developing very prosperously now.
If you're interested, you can come work at the auto parts factory. I'll just have to say hello to the management there."
Chen Ming was a little surprised. He didn't expect that it would be so easy to work in an auto parts factory.
He wondered if his parents had told Hao Jianjun about his affairs.
Last night, his father said he would not interfere in this matter.
But he didn't ask any more questions, just politely responded: "Okay, thank you Uncle Jun, I'll finish my housework first and then take a look."
Hao Jianjun nodded, waved his hand, and left in a cool manner.
Chen Ming stood there, watching Hao Jianjun's back as he left, feeling a little complicated.
Sighing, he walked into his vegetable greenhouse. Seeing his parents busy at work, he casually asked, "Dad, I just ran into Uncle Jun. Did you tell him about me?"
Chen Zhen raised his head, a little confused: "You didn't mention it, didn't you say you wanted to find a job yourself?
Why, what did Jianjun say to you?"
"Nothing much, just asking me if I want to work at the auto parts factory." Chen Ming scratched his head, with a hint of hesitation in his tone.
"Then just agree to it. What's there to hesitate about? After all, they asked you first." Chen Zhen frowned, his tone a little anxious.
"I didn't agree, but I didn't refuse either."
Chen Zhen sighed, his tone filled with helplessness and disappointment: "Fool, you've read all your books in vain. I'm too lazy to talk to you anymore."
After saying that, he continued to pick vegetables and no longer paid attention to his son.
After working outside for a few years, I still don't understand the reality of society.
Chen Ming stood aside, feeling mixed emotions.
He knew his father was doing this for his own good, but he couldn't suppress the stubbornness in his heart.
He looked up at the bright sunshine outside the greenhouse and secretly made up his mind: give himself some more time. If he really can't find a suitable job, he will try the auto parts factory.
Maybe, I should change my temper.
It will be really hard to find a job in the next week or two.
I submitted no less than fifty resumes, but only received four interview calls. However, when I talked on the phone, the HR shook their heads and said that the salary they would offer would be no different from that of a graduate.
The monthly salary after becoming a regular employee is 2000 yuan!
It's so damn cheap!
A year's work is not as good as the two acres of vegetables at home.
Nowadays, the annual net income from growing one acre of vegetables in the village is no less than 1.5 yuan.
Because of this, the surrounding villages are very envious of their village.
The wages of ordinary auto parts factories in the town’s industrial park are no less than 5,000 yuan.
Well, it’s better to face reality.
Thinking of this, he seemed to let go of his stubbornness and went to find Uncle Jun in person.
