Chapter 1174 Layman
The third interviewer was noncommittal when he heard this. He flipped through Zhang Heng's resume.
"I appreciate your courage to try new things, however I noticed that you have no previous experience working in a nuclear power plant and this is a completely new field for you."
"I can learn," Zhang Heng replied, "I have a strong learning ability."
"I know, I don't doubt it. It can be seen from your resume that you were promoted from an assistant engineer to a full engineer in a short time after graduation. You are very suitable for the job in a thermal power plant, so My suggestion is that you can continue to stay in the thermal power plant. To be honest, the salary we can offer is not much higher than what you can get in the thermal power plant. There is no need for you to give up what you are familiar with and learn from scratch."
Zhang Heng actually didn't pay much attention to the salary issue, but in order to play the role of a good candidate, he still got to know him a little bit. The third interviewer was not targeting him. The salary of a nuclear power plant is indeed not much higher than that of a thermal power plant, but if Given the opportunity to choose, there are still many people willing to change jobs to work in nuclear power plants.
Mainly because in the context of SL's vigorous promotion of nuclear power generation, nuclear power plants have a higher status than thermal power plants, and subsequent promotions will be easier. Of course, this is for the management, but for the people below, Working in a nuclear power plant will also be more respectable and respectable than working in a thermal power plant. Moreover, the construction of nuclear power plants has been in full swing, and there is a great demand for talents, and they have a greater chance of being promoted.
However, this matter cannot be brought to the table. This is why Zhang Heng’s previous answer was to embrace the future. However, it was obviously not the first time that the third interviewer heard a similar answer, so he also tried to be as tactful as possible. His tone persuaded Zhang Heng to give up this idea.
Zhang Heng fell silent after hearing this.
As if he was worried that Zhang Heng didn't understand, the third interviewer simply made it clear, "The work in a nuclear power plant is not easy. I know what is advertised outside - peaceful atoms, clean energy, but in fact inside the reactor The atom is not peaceful, and we need experienced engineers to deal with every situation and prevent the worst from happening."
Zhang Heng still didn't speak, but Fuming on the other side spoke first. He coughed twice, and then said in his sweet baritone voice, "Oleg, I think you are making a fuss out of a molehill. It has been more than 30 years since a nuclear power plant was built, and there has not been any major accidents. I think this speaks volumes, otherwise the higher authorities would not have been promoting the construction of nuclear power plants."
"We are just lucky. The nuclear leak accident caused by the Americans at Three Mile Island will happen to us sooner or later." Oleg said worriedly.
"You are too pessimistic. The reactor designed by Academician Dolezhali is very safe." Brukhanov also said at this time, "It is precisely because of these nuclear power plants that we can export more oil and natural gas to our allies in Eastern Europe. , and those greedy guys in the Western world.”
"Academician Dolezalli also warned against building nuclear power plants in densely populated areas, but look at Pripyat, it is only three kilometers away from us."
"This is a decision from above. They may have their own considerations. Oleg, you know this is something we can't control. We just need to do our job well." Bryukhanov knocked on the table, looking a little helpless. , "Gentlemen, can we focus on recruitment first? Reactor No. 3 is about to be put into operation and we need manpower."
"Yes, we need nuclear power plant workers with rich previous experience. Only such people can be qualified for jobs in nuclear power plants." Oleg insisted.
"There is a proverb in Russia that you don't need a god to burn a clay pot. We just need a steam turbine engineer, and now you got a steam turbine engineer." Fuming pointed to Zhang Heng on the other side of the wooden table.
"What are you talking about? We are recruiting people for the nuclear power plant. Isn't the prerequisite that we understand the job? Is there any problem with this?"
"Ivan not only understands this job, but also has rich experience. He worked in a thermal power station before and understands high-power power generation systems, distribution systems, and transmission lines. And as he said, he is very young. , there is plenty of time to learn and grow." Fuming said, "I think he is the person we are looking for."
"He doesn't know anything about reactors, and that's the most important thing about working in a nuclear power plant," Oleg insisted. "We need experts, nuclear energy experts, not laymen who know nothing and learn from scratch."
As soon as he said these words, not only Fomin's face turned cold, but Blyukhanov was also a little unhappy, "Fomin worked in a thermal power station before coming here, and I also worked in Slava before coming here. We who work at the Yanskaya coal-fired power station, according to you, are all laymen, but aren’t we doing a pretty good job now?”
"I didn't mean that, Bryukhanov." Oleg also knew that he was too anxious just now and said something wrong, so he apologized quickly.
Brukhanov, the factory director, seems to be very kind and like a good old man most of the time, but he does have some taboos. What he hates most is the experts below secretly saying that he does not understand nuclear energy.
Then, as if just to be angry, he promoted Fu Ming, who also worked in the thermal power station, to be the head of the electrical department. Not long after, he promoted Fu Ming to deputy chief engineer in charge of the assembly department and operation department, while waiting for the president The engineer left, and Fuming was promoted to chief engineer of the nuclear power plant.
Although the Ministry of Energy clearly opposed this appointment and preferred another candidate who had worked at a nuclear power plant, Blyukhanov later used his official connections and the Ukrainian side came forward to say that Fomin was The leader they really needed, who was tough and had very high standards for his work, was more suitable for the Chernobyl nuclear power plant than the other candidate. In the end, Moscow gave in and the Central Council of Nuclear Energy approved the appointment. Khanov also got his right-hand man.
"I respect your professionalism, Deputy Chief Engineer Oleg, and I understand your concerns about safety." Bryukhanov also softened his tone, "But when we recruit people, we also need to consider all aspects. Of course, it is good to understand nuclear energy, but this does not mean that other aspects are not important. And compared to skill proficiency, I think work attitude is more important. If a person's attitude is not correct, then no matter how strong his work ability is, it will be in vain. , do you think what I said is right?"
"That's what I say, but..."
"No buts," Brukhanov waved his hand to interrupt Oleg and turned his attention to Zhang Heng. "Ivan, how is your work attitude?"
"If I can work in a nuclear power plant, I will definitely study hard and never relax," said Zhang Heng.
"Very good." Brukhanov said with satisfaction, "You just have to have such a work attitude. Next, Fuming will ask you a few professional questions to test you. You have to answer them well, but don't be nervous. Fuming asked All are related to your previous work."
