Chapter 24 He gave too much
After the absurd written test, Lin Chen had a free afternoon.
Many people, including Chen Lei, went to the practical training base to touch the equipment.
This is the only chance; everyone has ten minutes to familiarize themselves with the equipment, but taking photos is not allowed.
No one knows the practical exam questions for tomorrow, and Lin Chen is too lazy to look at them. It doesn't matter whether he passes or not, but he doesn't want to go back to his room too early, so he finds a corner in the milk tea shop next to the hotel to write.
I had just written five hundred words when a figure sat down opposite me, a pair of full breasts taking up almost half the table.
Lin Chen looked up and saw the busty girl in the exam room who had lifted her skirt to copy answers.
Girls in good cities are just big.
In that godforsaken place of Suicheng, such a slender figure with "large fruits hanging from slender branches" is truly rare. Local girls are either short and thin or tall and thin, so it's rare to find someone as slender as her with such "large headlights".
She seemed a little flustered, her fair cheeks flushed slightly: "My name is Bai Xiuyi, from Lincheng. Um... I apologize for making a scene in the exam hall earlier."
Lin Chen feigned ignorance: "What?"
"It's about... writing the answers on my thigh." Her voice trailed off, tinged with embarrassment.
Lin Chen chuckled: "It's nothing. I've seen even more shameless people. In these kinds of exams, isn't it all about individual ability?" Lin Chen was referring to Chen Lei, of course. When the exam papers were being collected earlier, Chen Lei hadn't finished writing a few words and was stubbornly refusing to hand in his paper.
In the end, the teacher forcibly confiscated it, and he was treated like a pig being slaughtered.
She sighed, a hint of helplessness in her eyes: "I saw you answer the questions very smoothly, writing a lot of notes. I couldn't do that; I only answered two questions, so I probably won't pass."
Yes, although she did put a cheat sheet on her thigh, it was only for one big question; she didn't know the answers to the others.
Lin Chen: "I'll just write whatever comes to mind, as long as it's full."
Her voice was tinged with sadness: "I heard that this advanced qualification certificate will be reformed again next year. You must have an innovative project that has won a third prize or higher at the municipal level to take the exam. This year is my last chance."
Lin Chen hadn't heard this news and said, "There's such a request? That's really absurd."
Lin Chen knew about the innovation project; it was another gray area within the company. Basically, it involved a bunch of brainless people coming up with a bunch of inexplicable things, which they called innovation.
Anyone can do the project, but I've heard it's very difficult to win an award.
"Yes," she shook her head with a wry smile, "Those of us who don't understand project management will probably be stripped of our eligibility to even take the exam soon. Isn't that ridiculous? They might as well just let those who do project management get certified."
You're emotional, girl.
Lin Chen remained calm and replied indifferently, "It's alright, we'll find a way when the time comes." Lin Chen was actually still wondering what this woman was up to, whether she was complaining to him because he was too handsome.
That's highly unlikely.
"Um," Bai Xiuyi paused, giving Lin Chen a meaningful look, "do you know what the practical exam will be about tomorrow?"
Lin Chen finally understood why she had sat down to drink milk.
So that's what they were waiting for.
"I don't know."
"No way, everyone went to visit the base after the written exam, and you're just sitting here calmly drinking milk tea. You must know the questions. Can you share them with me?" Bai Xiuyi's eyes revealed a certain charm, and she deliberately nudged herself with her foot.
Is this a scheme to use beauty?
It seems there are quite a few people in this exam hall who are using their own tricks, both openly and secretly. Most people really can't resist these kinds of lights. It's a pity I didn't know that, otherwise I would have been in for a treat tonight.
"I really don't know," Lin Chen said calmly, taking a sip of his milk tea. "Don't add your own drama."
"Okay," she laughed self-deprecatingly, "those of us without connections can only resort to these underhanded methods. Don't mind me."
"I don't mind," Lin Chen replied.
"Then I wish you good luck." She got up and left, her skirt swaying gracefully.
After saying that, she got up and left.
Sitting in the bubble tea shop, Lin Chen suddenly felt that this exam was like a mirror, revealing the true nature of the world.
Back in the room.
Chen Lei was studying some photos of a level/theodolite. It turned out that he had taken photos of all the equipment in the practical training area, and he could clearly see the model numbers. He was familiarizing himself with the steps one by one. He was really eager to learn.
The agreement that no photos or records were allowed, and that each person had ten minutes, was nothing but bullshit to someone like him.
However, Lin Chen didn't look down on him. As soon as he arrived at the city company, he entered the administrative department and had never worked at the grassroots level. He didn't even know how to wear a seatbelt, let alone actually climb to a high place.
Soon, the next day arrived.
Everyone was waiting in the waiting room.
The examiners arrived quickly and began explaining the exam rules.
In this practical exam, each candidate will have to complete two questions: one to be completed alone and the other to be completed in cooperation with another person. Each practical question is worth 50 points, and a total score of 60 points is required to pass.
Honestly, Lin Chen had taken the exam twice before, and both times he completed the questions independently. This year was the first time that two people had taken the exam, and I don't know what the reasoning was.
Someone asked about it.
The examiner's exact words: Nowadays, more and more company assignments require collaboration between two or even three people, so no matter how capable one person is, it's useless without a teammate. This is why we set up two-person assignments.
Nothing wrong with that.
I'm afraid there's something fishy going on.
Today we'll start with individual questions. To improve efficiency and speed up the exam, this individual exam will have four workstations, meaning there will be four questions labeled A, B, C, and D. However, no one knows what the questions labeled A, B, C, and D actually mean.
According to the examiner's instructions, candidate number 001 will take question A, candidate number 002 will take question B, candidate number 003 will take question C, candidate number 004 will take question D, and so on. Lin Chen's examination admission ticket number is 015, so after calculating, he should take question C.
The exam regulations were very strict. Candidates were not allowed to move around freely, all mobile phones were collected, and everyone waited in the waiting room.
"The exam is about to begin. Please proceed to your respective exam rooms from number 1 to number 4," an instructor announced. Before setting off, all four of them looked solemn, as if they were going to war.
This situation can indeed be very nerve-wracking, because you are facing something unknown. You don't know what you will be tested on. People in the waiting room are also restless and on pins and needles.
Thirty minutes later, the first group of explorers finally returned after completing their test.
They were all very frustrated, but no one cared how they did on the exam. They only cared about the exam questions and kept asking them until they finally got the most important information about the exam questions.
Exam Question A: Practical Operation of Crack Treatment in Concrete Channels; Task: Given a transverse crack in a concrete irrigation channel that is 2.5m long and 0.8mm wide (simulating a water seepage condition), you need to complete the entire crack treatment process.
Question B: Debugging and troubleshooting of small sluice gate opening and closing equipment; Task: Debug a 5t winch-type sluice gate opening and closing machine, and troubleshoot and resolve simulated faults such as "abnormal noise from the motor when opening the gate and jamming when the gate is raised and lowered".
Exam Question C: Practical exercise on settlement and horizontal displacement observation of hydraulic structures; Task: Conduct settlement observation (second-order leveling accuracy) and horizontal displacement observation (line of sight method) on a simulated small gravity dam (set up 3 observation points), and complete data recording and preliminary analysis.
Exam Question D: Centrifugal Pump Installation, Commissioning, and Troubleshooting Practice; Task: Complete the installation of an 80-125 type centrifugal pump (including pump body, motor, and pipeline connection), and after commissioning, troubleshoot and resolve simulated faults such as "no water flow after startup and excessive vibration during operation".
Even a fool could figure out this question.
The two AC problems are relatively simple; you only need hands to solve them, you don't even need to use your brain.
Questions B and D are quite difficult, especially question D, which involves practical operation of centrifugal pump installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting. It requires correctly connecting the inlet and outlet water pipes, installing seals and valves, testing the pump outlet pressure, flow rate, and vibration value, and locating the cause of the fault.
Even a master craftsman with over ten years of on-site experience might not be able to handle it within thirty minutes.
Lin Chen remembered that this was the question he had taken the last time. He had practiced it diligently for a while afterward and was even tempted to take on the challenge. However, according to the normal order, his question was C, so he didn't need to worry about it.
"Lin Chen, can we switch questions?" At this moment, Chen Lei shamelessly came over again, his attitude very friendly. This guy is 016, so it's question D.
He was really craving Lin Chen's C exam question: practical observation of settlement and horizontal displacement of hydraulic structures. This question was simple, and it was the only one he knew a little about. Moreover, he had just learned the measurement methods of leveling instruments/theodolites last night.
Lin Chen glanced at him, his voice cold: "Why should I switch with you?" He might have switched with someone else, but he couldn't let Chen Lei get away with it so easily.
"You're so good, you even got the same C and D questions on the test, why don't you switch with me?"
"No change."
"How about a thousand dollars?"
"You think I owe you a thousand dollars?"
"two thousand."
"This isn't about money."
"Three thousand."
"You are insulting me."
"Five thousand."
"Deal, transfer the money."
Anyway, Lin Chen didn't want to improve, so it didn't matter whether he passed the exam or not.
No, the key point is that he gave too much.
In Chen Lei's view, as long as he can pass this exam, anything is worthwhile.
