Chapter 69 Why are all of them Airbus fleet?
Xu Cang left Lu Jinghua's office. He was not too worried about what might happen to him. Although the takeoff just now was quite dangerous, the response was relatively quick, and there would not be any major problems. If there were any, they would just be some hard warnings. Of course, too many hard warnings would not look good, but it was still within the acceptable range.
He had planned to go to the dispatch room later. Ever since filling in the flights at Lushui Airport, Xu Cang had become quite familiar with the people in the dispatch room. He would go there whenever he had time to ask about the recent schedule. If he was lucky, he would get a chance to cooperate with the flight.
However, as soon as Xu Cang came out of the office, he was shocked to find that the captain and the first co-pilot who had come out earlier had not left, and seemed to be waiting for him deliberately.
The captain saw Xu Cang coming out and enthusiastically put his arm around his shoulders: "Brother, since you can't fly today, you have nothing to do, right? I'll treat you to a meal. There's a good beef offal restaurant next to the airport!"
"Well..." Based on Xu Cang's previous personality , he didn't like this kind of socializing, but on second thought, making more friends is also a good thing, and he still has to change the way he deals with people.
Just as Xu Cang was hesitating, the captain patted Xu Cang on the shoulder again: "Let's go, I have to thank you very much."
As he said this, he didn't give Xu Cang a chance to think, and pushed Xu Cang forward with a smile, and the first co-pilot followed behind. Xu Cang wanted to go in the first place, and the captain was so proactive, so it was natural for him to do so.
Although the beef offal shop is at the airport, it is still a bit far to walk there. Xu Cang didn't have a car, so he was going to go there with the captain's car, while the first co-pilot drove his own car.
After going downstairs, the first co-pilot went through another door because of the parking space, while Xu Cang and the captain went through the main gate together.
However, when the two passed by the lobby on the first floor, they saw from afar that there were many people gathered in the rest area at the gate. After a quick look, they found that most of them were tall beauties.
Unlike the blue flight attendant uniforms of Blue Sky Airlines, the uniforms of these beauties are very similar in style, but are all black. Xu Cang seems to have never seen flight attendants of any airline wearing this kind of uniform.
When he got closer, Xu Cang discovered that each girl had a round number plate on her left breast. Each of them was holding a document in her hand, and many of them looked anxious.
At the edge of the crowd, there was a bespectacled man wearing a light blue shirt, holding something that looked like a manual in his hand. He was writing something on the manual while talking to the girl and collecting the materials from the girl's hand. He had a lot of materials tucked under his arm.
"Is this from our company? What are they doing?" Xu Cang asked casually.
"It's not our company. The uniforms are different. These are the flight attendants from Jianchuan Aviation Service College. They are here for an interview." The captain's eyes swept over the interviewed flight attendants and suddenly sighed: "These flight attendants are really good. After working for a few years, they are more relaxed than the other. I blush when I hear them talking."
In the eyes of ordinary people, flight attendants still have some special fantasies, but in the eyes of pilots, there are really no secrets and no halo at all. Some pilots even discovered the true faces of some flight attendants after entering the aviation industry. Their previous fantasies were shattered and they were speechless.
Although the captain spoke in a somewhat frivolous manner, he actually did not look at her for long and quickly looked away. His behavior was still gentlemanly.
"Oh, I see." That was normal for a flight attendant interview, but Xu Cang had very good eyesight and he discovered that some interviewed flight attendants would put something else under the materials when handing them in, which seemed to be... a bank card.
Xu Cang was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and lowered his voice: "Is our company always so blatant in collecting money?"
"Ah?" The captain craned his neck to look at the man with glasses and shrugged, "Your eating manners are a bit ugly."
The money transaction in the flight attendant interview is basically the default rule in the circle. Xu Cang is very clear about this. He has no power to change this situation for the time being, but he just feels a little emotional.
Some of the flight attendants saw Xu Cang and the captain approaching. At this time, Xu Cang and the captain were still in uniform, so many of them bowed their heads slightly towards Xu Cang and the captain and said in unison: "Hello, Captain."
Although these were part of their learning content, this situation still made Xu Cang feel a little uncomfortable. However, the captain walked forward calmly, as if he didn't hear anything.
Suddenly, Xu Cang found that the man with glasses who was collecting interview materials and a young flight attendant were standing at the edge of the crowd, seemingly arguing about something. Even though they were a little distance apart, Xu Cang was still amazed at the appearance of the young flight attendant.
Xu Cang didn't like those sexy women with heavy makeup, but preferred the pure and beautiful type. The young flight attendant in front of him perfectly met Xu Cang's preferences.
Her lips were bright red, her teeth were white, her eyes were bright and charming, and her face was full of anxiety, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, which was very Daiyu-like.
"The market has gone up now. Thirty thousand is not enough. Fifty thousand is needed." Although the two were at the edge of the crowd, the man with glasses did not deliberately lower his voice when speaking, as if this was not something he wanted to hide.
The young flight attendant near the two men probably heard what the man with glasses said, but they didn't react in any special way.
The young flight attendant sitting opposite the man with glasses was even more anxious when she heard that the salary had increased so much all of a sudden: "We clearly agreed on this, how could this happen?"
"I'm not making this up. You can ask around and that's the price. However..." The man with glasses said the last part, his eyes fell on the pretty face of the young flight attendant, and suddenly lowered his voice: "Here's what? The cabin department leaders are having a party tonight, you should go too."
The little flight attendant's pupils trembled, and she subconsciously took a step back: "How can this be? No way!"
The young flight attendant was obviously frightened, but her mind was still clear and she clearly refused. She understood what going to the party meant.
"I'm sorry." The man with glasses spread his hands.
The young flight attendant was a little flustered: "Then...then give me the money, I don't need your help."
"What are you talking about? Money?" The man with glasses continued to persuade: "Don't be so resistant. You are not the only one. This will be very helpful for your future work in the company. You are not a child anymore. You should recognize the situation..."
But before he could finish his words, the man with glasses shifted his gaze and a cold figure appeared behind the young flight attendant. Xu Cang stared at him expressionlessly, with undisguised disgust in his eyes.
The man with glasses glanced at Xu Cang's uniform, and his heart tightened: "What... are you going to do?"
Xu Cang didn't say anything either. He just stood quietly behind the young flight attendant, looking directly at the man with glasses.
The young flight attendant did not see Xu Cang's arrival in person, but after observing the reaction of the man with glasses, she seemed to have realized something and turned around suddenly, just in time to meet Xu Cang's cold face.
There is a gentleman who is as sharp as a knife and as polished as a jade. This is Xu Cang!
Just when the young flight attendant was distracted for a moment, the captain suddenly put his arm around the man with glasses and laughed, "Director Liu, come over and tell me something."
The man with glasses wanted to break free, but he recognized the person coming, so he didn't stop him and followed the captain to another corner. The captain's hands were also very smooth, and he took the bank card of the flight attendant from the man with glasses and put it into Xu Cang's hand when he passed by him.
This action could not be concealed from the attention of the man with glasses, but the man with glasses did not say much, which was regarded as tacit approval of the captain's actions.
As the captain and the man with glasses walked away, the last words Xu Cang could hear were the captain's voice: "Director Liu, that girl belongs to my brother..."
Xu Cang could no longer hear what was said afterwards, but he could roughly guess what it was.
Xu Cang took out his bank card and handed it to the flight attendant. He saw her name on her badge - Xia Shuyue.
The sparse moon shines through the tall pines, and its shadow falls on the ground like a painting. What a nice name!
Xia Shuyue obviously hadn't figured out the situation yet. When she saw Xu Cang's uniform, she didn't care how many stripes it had on it and hurriedly said, "Hello, Captain!"
Xu Cang chuckled. This little flight attendant looked like a frightened deer, quite cute. He pointed to his shoulder badge and said, "I'm not a captain. Three stripes. I'm a co-pilot! This is yours, take it, and do a good job in the interview. Don't go astray."
Xia Shuyue hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted her bank card: "I didn't want to do this, but my parents insisted..."
She didn't know why she had to explain to Xu Cang, but she instinctively felt that it was necessary.
Xu Cang didn't have any other thoughts, he was just simply amazed by Xia Shuyue's appearance, and had no intention of developing a relationship with her. Now Xu Cang didn't even plan to actively approach his future wife Qin Xin, he was only thinking about his career, not to mention other people.
After a while, the captain who had spoken to the man with glasses in private came back. The man with glasses next to the captain looked at Xu Cang, said nothing, and just went back to collecting interview materials.
Xu Cang nodded to Xia Shuyue and left, leaving Xia Shuyue standing there blankly.
After leaving the base building, Xu Cang asked casually, "Did you agree?"
"That person is the recruitment director of the cabin department. We have an agreement. She won't be embarrassed during the interview, but she won't be given any special treatment either." The captain looked back at Xia Shuyue and said, "So you like this model?"
Xu Cang smiled and said, "I just wanted to help. But it's really rotten and disgusting to watch."
"What's this? How can it be compared to the marketing department blatantly selling off routes?" The captain saw through it clearly: "It's not uncommon for the leader of our flight department to play with women and deduct subsidies. No one is saying anything to each other, they are all the same."
Xu Cang lowered his head: "I'm not talking about the cabin department..."
"Are you talking about our company?" The captain really had no taboos: "All crows are the same, and we are relatively good among the bad ones."
"Is there no way to change it?" Xu Cang suddenly asked.
The captain barely thought: "No! The company has grown big, the roots are rotten, there is no hope, so let it be!"
Of course Xu Cang knew that what the captain said was not wrong. This was not arbitrary, but a fact!
"If there is no cure, then I'll break everything." Xu Cang muttered to himself: "What if I can have my own airline?"
…
Xia Shuyue's matter was just a small episode. If she passed the interview, then they could have another layer of working relationship in the future, but that was all. If she failed the interview, then they would probably never meet again.
Xu Cang didn't take Xia Shuyue's matter to heart, and went to the beef offal shop with the captain for a big meal. As the captain said, the beef offal there was really delicious. The boss said he was from Jingzhou Public Security Bureau, and the way to cook the beef offal was brought from his hometown.
During the meal, the captain expressed his gratitude to Xu Cang and took the initiative to pour wine for Xu Cang several times, which made Xu Cang feel a little embarrassed.
The captain's name was Zhu Jian. After drinking a lot, he got drunk and grabbed Xu Cang, demanding to become his sworn brother. He also said that it was Xu Cang who saved his life and that he wanted Xu Cang to be his big brother.
If Zhu Jian hadn't been unable to bear it anymore and fell asleep on the table, it would have been possible for them to form a sworn brotherhood in the beef offal shop.
However, this captain Zhu Jian had one good point, although he drank a lot, he would not force others to drink. Xu Cang was not very good at drinking, so he was more restrained. Zhu Jian did not say anything, just cared about having fun, so Xu Cang had a good impression of him.
He really hates people who force people to drink without caring about anything else.
Zhu Jian is a pretty good drinker. Apart from being quite excited, he would go to sleep after a while, so there is nothing disgusting about him.
Because the first co-pilot also drank a lot, although he was not unconscious, he was almost there. Xu Cang didn't drink much, and he was very clear-headed. He was fine, so he just watched the two of them in the store. When the two of them sobered up a little, they each called their families to come and pick them up before they could go home with peace of mind .
…
Afterwards, just as Lu Jinghua said, the abnormal nose lift incident on the Jianchuan-Yingli flight did not bring any punishment to Xu Cang.
However, Xu Cang didn't have the energy to take care of these things for the time being, because the company had no time to think at all. After a short rest, the simulator observation arrived.
There is a big difference between observing a simulator and flying a simulator. In later generations, simulator observation was more formal, with corresponding simulator observation record sheets, but nowadays, you don’t need to bring anything for simulator observation. To put it in an extreme way, you just need to show up.
Of course, Xu Cang was not so careless as to be so crazy. He brought his flight case, uniform, headphones, and license, just like he would on a real flight, and his attitude was very serious.
The simulator was arranged at Jianchuan Flight Safety Simulator Center. This is a simulator training institution founded by the foreign Flight Safety International, and it has a long history. Moreover, Xu Cang knew that this simulator center would continue to exist for the next 20 years, and it could be called an evergreen in the industry. Even though pilots later complained about the old equipment, it still stood firm.
When Xu Cang arrived at the simulator center, he saw the trainees for this simulator training. However, when he saw their work badges, Xu Cang noticed a very strange question - why are all these people from the Airbus team?
