Reborn Industrial Tycoon

In the auto repair shop, Li Weidong found a bright corner, holding a traffic map of Handong Province in his hand, and carefully memorized each route. These were the contents of the exam.

As a truck dispatcher, familiarity with transportation routes is the most basic ability. If you are not familiar with the roads, how can you dispatch vehicles?

In 1985, there were no highways in China. At that time, all transportation was done by national and provincial highways. From one place to another, what routes could be chosen, how long were each route, what were the road conditions like, and how much did the journey cost?

Time, which towns and villages will pass through on the way, and which towns and villages often have car robbers and road bullies. This is all information that the dispatcher needs to master.

Freight transportation is different from passenger transportation. Passenger transportation is a round trip between two places. The route and time are fixed. The dispatcher only needs to remember a few main routes.

Freight is not a simple round trip between two places. The supply and demand situation of goods in each city is different. It is difficult to guarantee that there will be goods when you go there and there will be goods when you come back. It is a loss to run empty trucks, so trucks often have to pass through the third place.

Pulling and unloading goods in three places.

For an excellent truck dispatcher, the route he arranges is always a circle. Once the truck goes out, it will unload and reload in different cities, and then go to the next location. By the time it returns, several orders of business have been completed.

The cost and profit of transportation are also things that truck dispatchers consider. As a truck dispatcher, no matter how reasonable the route arrangement is, if the truck does not make money when it comes back, it is all in vain.

Therefore, truck dispatchers must have relatively strong overall planning and calculation skills, and must be able to estimate in a short period of time how this train can run to make more money.

Li Weidong was so focused on the traffic map in his hand that he didn't even notice Cui Dashan coming to him.

"Xiao Li, what are you looking at?" Cui Dashan asked.

Li Weidong raised his head and saw the small red notebook in Cui Dashan's hand.

Li Weidong knew that Cui Dashan was going to be a matchmaker again, so he quickly said: "Director Cui, I plan to take the exam to be a dispatcher in the freight department."

"The exam to be a dispatcher in the freight department is not that easy. Seventy or eighty people take the exam each time, which means only one or two people can pass." Cui Dashan said.

"So, I'm going to start reviewing now." Li Weidong pointed to the traffic map in his hand.

"That's fine. Work hard while you're young. Young people want to make progress! The dispatcher in the freight department has a high salary and a lot of room for improvement. You should take the exam." Cui Dashan said this, but in his heart

It's a bit empty.

When you see one of your subordinates wanting to change jobs, a leader will definitely feel a little uncomfortable.

Just listen to Cui Dashan continue to say: "The dispatcher exam is very difficult. Don't be discouraged if you don't pass. There will be opportunities in the future. Even if you don't pass, it's not bad to stay in the auto repair shop. The business volume of our auto repair shop is

, which is also increasing year by year.”

"In the future, there will be more and more vehicles, and there will even be many individuals buying cars. By then, our auto repair shop may become independent from the transportation company and become an independent auto repair shop! Director Cui, you will be the one by then.

Director Cui!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

"Buying a car by yourself? How is this possible? Cars are so expensive, and with our little salary, it's not enough to buy tires." Cui Dashanquan thought Li Weidong was joking.

In the Qinghe area in the 1980s, there were only three places that could repair cars. One was the auto repair class of the military division, the other was the auto repair team of the Public Security Bureau, and the other was the auto repair workshop of the transportation company.

The auto repair team in the military division can even repair tanks, but it is not open to civilian use. They only repair military vehicles; the auto repair team in the Public Security Bureau hardly repairs cars. They mainly repair motorcycles, because the public security department at that time

They are all equipped with motorcycles with motorcycles, and the grassroots cannot afford cars.

Therefore, enterprises and institutions in the Qinghe area will come to the transportation company's auto repair shop to repair their cars, so the business of the auto repair shop is still very prosperous.

As the number of vehicles gradually increased, the transportation company's auto repair shop became increasingly busy. Finally, it went out independently and established the transportation company's auto repair shop, with independent accounting of revenue and expenditure. It was regarded as the tertiary industry of the transportation company. Cui Dashan also became an automobile repair shop.

The first director of the repair factory.

In the era when technical schools had not yet opened auto repair majors, the transportation company's auto repair shop almost had a monopoly on the local auto repair business. In the future, when the transportation company will close down and a large number of employees will be laid off, the business of the auto repair shop will still be booming. Auto repair

Workers also escaped the wave of layoffs from state-owned enterprises in the 1990s.

Later, private cars began to become more popular, and there were more and more car repair shops on the roadside, but the business of repair shops was still booming. After all, auto repair shops are state-owned, and cars from government agencies and institutions are sent to auto repair shops for repairs and reimbursement.

It is easier to do so. Ordinary people also trust state-owned units, and at least they will not add sugar when filling engine oil.

…

In the freight department, the dispatch team leader Luo Bing handed the prepared test questions to the director Zhao Guodong.

"Director, I have prepared the questions for the dispatcher exam. You can go through them first. I will modify them if they are inappropriate." Luo Bing said.

Zhao Guodong took the test questions, read the beginning, picked up a pen, and crossed out a question.

"This question is too simple. Everyone can do it, so there is no need to put it above."

"This question was tested last time and many people know the answer. There is no need to take the test again."

"These two questions are somewhat repetitive, so just leave one of them alone."

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Guodong deleted several questions.

"Director, is this question too difficult? For the remaining questions, only someone who has really worked as a dispatcher can answer them correctly," Luo Bing said.

"I think it's not difficult enough!" Zhao Guodong continued: "There are so many young employees who want to work as dispatchers in our freight department. Of course we have to select the best from the best. If the question is too simple, how can we select the best one.

The only thing that matters is the number of soldiers. The test questions are the same. This time there will be ten questions, but they must be representative. Now there are nine questions, and I will add one more."

After Zhao Guodong finished speaking, he picked up his pen and added another question to the test questions. Then, Zhao Guodong returned the test paper to Luo Bing and said, "Lao Luo, what do you think of this question I asked?"

Luo Bing took the test paper: "In August this year, the company will purchase 60 trucks. They need to park at Dongguan Parking Lot and Nanshan Parking Lot. Ask how to allocate the vehicles and explain the reasons. Haha, Director, what are you doing?

It’s a trap question!”

"Oh? Tell me." Zhao Guodong said.

"When most people see this question, they will think it is testing their familiarity with the company's several parking lots. Our company's Nanshan parking lot is relatively small and can only park forty trucks, while the Dongguan parking lot is much larger and can accommodate

Eighty trucks will be parked. If allocated according to the normal number, 20 trucks will be parked in Nanshan and 40 trucks will be parked in Dongguan."

When Luo Bing said this, he smiled slyly and continued: "But if you answer like this, you must be wrong!"

"Why?" Zhao Guodong asked.

"Director, you are deliberately testing me! There are many factories in Nanshan, and there is a huge demand for freight. Dongguan is mainly a residential area, and it is next to the beach of Qinghe. There is no need for freight at all.

.If you park forty cars in the Dongguan parking lot, you have to go to Nanshan to pick up the goods. Wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

There was a hint of arrogance in Luo Bing's eyes, and he continued: "So the correct answer is that forty cars will stop at Nanshan, and the remaining twenty cars will not be able to stop at Nanshan, so they will go to Dongguan. Director, this is your question

On the surface, the test is about familiarity with the company's parking lot, but in fact it is about the knowledge of the source of goods. There are pitfalls in this question, and if you are not an experienced dispatcher, you will definitely fall into the pit."

Zhao Guodong nodded and said lightly: "You answered wrong!"

"What? I answered it wrong? How is this possible!" Luo Bing was slightly stunned.

"The correct answer is, sixty cars, all parked at Dongguan Parking Lot!" Zhao Guodong replied.

"Why?" Zhao Guodong looked puzzled.

"Read the title carefully. What I wrote above is that the company will purchase 60 trucks in August this year. Have you forgotten that August is the flood season? Our company is responsible for flood control every year."

Zhao Guodong prompted.

"Oh, why did I forget this!" Luo Bing patted his head and continued: "The Dongguan parking lot is very close to the river beach. If you receive a flood control task, you can go to the river beach to load sandbags at any time, and then put in

Get involved in flood prevention tasks.”

"What else?" Zhao Guodong asked next.

Luo Bing was stunned again: "What else?"

Zhao Guodong had no choice but to explain: "Nanshan is to the south of the railway. If you want to come from Nanshan, you have to pass through a railway culvert. The railway culvert is a sunken type. During the flood season, a heavy rain can submerge the railway culvert, and then a car can't

We can’t get through! So all the vehicles must be gathered in the Dongguan parking lot.”

"I understand! Director, your question is a double trap. Even I, the dispatch team leader, have fallen into the trap. Those newcomers will definitely not be able to answer it. It seems that this time, not many people taking the exam can.

Pass the exam." Luo Bing said.

"I just want to give those newbies a warning and let them know that being a dispatcher is not that easy. When newbies feel frustrated, they will know how to learn humbly when they come to our office." Zhao Guodong continued: "I will go and do it later.

Print out the test questions and be sure to keep them confidential and don’t leak the questions.”

"Director, don't worry, I will do this myself." Luo Bing said.

…

Luo Bing came to the printing room, found a piece of wax paper, engraved the questions with a pen, then went to the mimeograph machine, applied ink and started printing the test papers.

In the 1980s, developed countries had already used copy machines, but China still used mimeograph machines, and they were still traditional manual mimeograph machines. First put the wax paper, then lay a piece of white paper, and roll it with an ink roller.

, you can print words on white paper. This kind of printing is slower, requires a lot of work, and the smell of the ink is very pungent.

After some effort, Luo Bing completed the printing. He threw the used wax paper into the trash can, took the test paper and left the printing room.

As soon as Luo Bing left, the administrator of the printing room walked in, quietly took out the used wax paper from the trash can, carefully laid it out, and used white paper to rub the contents on it again.

Although the handwriting on the printed test questions is no longer clear, the content can still be barely discerned.

When it was time to get off work, this question paper with unclear handwriting appeared in Wang Haibin's hands.

…

Wang Lei walked into the house humming a Cantonese song. This time he sang "The Great Wall Will Never Fall Down."

"The Great Wall Will Last" is the theme song of the TV series "Huo Yuanjia". This TV series was already popular all over the country. On the Spring Festival Gala of 1985, Lu Nianzu sang this song, which made this song even more popular.

It became a popular song.

In the living room, Wang Haibin was writing the test question at the table.

"Dad, what materials are you writing?" Wang Lei asked.

"It's not about writing materials, it's about doing test questions." Wang Haibin answered.

"What test questions are you doing? Dad, do you want to take the test?" Wang Lei asked again.

Wang Haibin glared at his son: "What exam am I taking? These are the questions for you to take the dispatcher exam!"

"What? You can get the dispatcher's test questions? Dad, you are really good." Wang Lei was taken aback and couldn't help but extend his thumb.

"Nonsense, if I don't get the test questions, with your little ability, you will never be able to get admitted as a dispatcher!" Wang Haibin sighed with hatred, and then said:

"The test questions this time are quite difficult. You will definitely not be able to answer them. Fortunately, I have also worked as a dispatcher. I can still answer the questions above. After eating for a while, don't do anything else. Even if

Even if you don’t sleep, you still have to memorize these answers!”

Realizing that Wang Haibin's tone was very serious, Wang Lei could only nod his head honestly: "I understand."

Wang Haibin continued: "I heard about the news that this time the freight department is recruiting a dispatcher. It only recruits one person, which means you must get the first place in the exam to become a dispatcher. Dispatchers are the most popular in the company.

For this position, as long as you pass the exam as a dispatcher, you will definitely get the quota to become a regular this year!"

"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely memorize it all." Wang Lei said.

"Also, watch your mouth and don't go around talking nonsense!" Wang Haibin deliberately ordered, then lowered his head and continued to work on the questions.

"In August this year, the company will purchase 60 trucks. They need to park at Dongguan Parking Lot and Nanshan Parking Lot. They asked how to allocate the trucks and explain the reasons. This was to test the familiarity with the company's parking lot. I remember

The Dongguan parking lot can park 80 cars, and the Nanshan parking lot can only park 40 cars. To sum it up, there are 40 cars parked in Dongguan and 20 cars parked in Nanshan."

Wang Haibin was about to write the answer when he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"No, this question on the surface tests the familiarity with the company's parking lot, but it actually tests the understanding of the source of goods. There are so many factories in Nanshan, so the Nanshan parking lot should be filled with forty cars!

This is a question asked by some grandson, and it’s full of tricks! How can a newcomer answer it? But this kind of little trap can’t be hidden from me!"

A triumphant smile appeared on Wang Haibin's face.
