Is it easy to find a job in Hainan?

That year, I went to Hainan to look for a job (1)

That year, 1988 1 month 17 at 9 o'clock in the morning, I set foot on the south train, and I was eager to go to Hainan to find a job that would make my career flourish. Walking with me is one of my middle school classmates named Xiao Ming. When he learned that I was traveling alone, he must accompany me and everyone will come. So I asked someone to buy another train ticket. They didn't bring replacement clothes, toothbrushes and toothpaste. The steamed stuffed bun only put a cup, a towel and a book, so we hit the road.

/kloc-at eleven o'clock on the evening of 0/8, the train arrived in Guangzhou smoothly. Step out of the train station and walk carefully into the street. I heard that the law and order in Guangzhou is not very good, so I looked around with vigilance. Looking for more than an hour, I still can't find a hotel with a bed, so I have to stay in the "Overseas Chinese Hotel". It is said to be a "hotel", but the facilities are really not worthy of the name. There is no color TV in the room, and there is no hot water supply in the bathroom. Accommodation is not low, per person per night 10 yuan, so we have to make do.

/kloc-on the morning of 0/9, in the hotel, I wrote a letter to my parents and the leaders in the unit, for I was afraid I wouldn't be able to catch up because I didn't go out publicly. Say goodbye without saying hello, and you will be criticized most when you come back. It doesn't matter if you can find a satisfactory job.

In the afternoon, I went for a walk in the city center. I went to several big shops and found nothing. I ate a big bowl of noodles and decided to walk. At six o'clock in the evening, take a coach to Zhanjiang. When I checked my bag, I found a small bag missing from my big bag. It must have been stolen while I was on the bus just now. Fortunately, there is nothing valuable in it.

Sitting in the car is particularly uncomfortable, because it is difficult to sit, each sitting in his own position, no matter how sleepy he is, he can't lie down. It's a bit chilly at night. This kind of "Dongfeng" brand old car has really poor shock absorption and bumps badly. The tire burst twice on the way, which was scary enough. At this time, I can't sleep, and the idiom "fear" always flashes in front of my eyes.

On the morning of 20th, the car slowly drove into the suburb of Zhanjiang, because there was a traffic accident ahead. On the national highway, I saw two minibuses collide. The front wheel of one of the cars was completely blown off beyond recognition. The other car was completely burned down, and only the empty frame was taken away. On the roadside, six charred bodies were covered with straw bags, and one of them showed a pair of children's feet, which was terrible.

10: 30, the car entered Zhanjiang. The first thing to do after getting off the bus is to buy a city map and then walk to the city center. Look around all the way and stop to ask questions from time to time. The price index of Zhanjiang is very high, and the consumption level is no less than that of Guangzhou. We decided not to spend the night and bought a bus ticket to Haikou, Hainan that night at Xiashan Bus Station. After a good meal, I saw that it was still early, so I went to the "seaside park" and then went shopping in the city center.

At 8: 30 pm, the bus left the bus station on time. After walking around the railway station, a group of tourists suddenly crowded with cars, which happened to be heading for Hainan.

2 1 day at 2 am, the bus arrived at Hai 'an Wharf. Xiao Ming and I had a breakfast of soup and water, and waited for dawn to cross the river on a terrace by the dock. At this time, the night is very cold under the sea breeze, and the air is full of damp smell. The sound of work on the dock is constant, and the lights are particularly dazzling. I wanted to sleep in a hotel near the pier, but I found that the bed was very expensive, so I made up my mind to overcome my sleepiness. After all, it will be dawn in a few hours.

At half past eight, the crowd gathered and began to go through the formalities of signing tickets across the river. At ten o'clock, with the whistle, the passenger ship set sail on time. At this time, I feel very bored on the passenger ship, and I can't find any players to relax. So I came to the ship armor, and under the wind, I looked at the surging blue water and the changing white clouds in the sky, thinking about this trip.

At twelve noon, the passenger ship arrived in Haikou. Seeing this strange city, my heart suddenly got excited. But no matter how excited you are, the first thing to do when you get off the boat is to have lunch first. Your stomach is growling badly. It's important to fill your stomach.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, I checked into Qiaodong Guest House. At four o'clock, wash your face, put down the car (there is actually no luggage) and go to the market lightly. There are many commodities on the market, but they are a little expensive. I randomly selected 10 people and conducted 10 opinion polls, but no one said that they would have money every month. In other words, prices here are quite high, while family income is quite low.

I ate in the guest house at night and ruined the canned food I brought from Shanghai. After nine o'clock, I slept with the stamina of alcohol. Xiao Ming didn't sleep He enjoys playing mahjong with others under the light of kerosene lamps (it is not surprising that there is a power outage at night).

On the morning of 22nd, in the guest house, I sent a postcard with Hainan scenery to a dozen pen pals. At the same time, I wrote more than a dozen postcards and planned to send them when I arrived in Sanya.

I woke Xiao Ming, had a quick breakfast and went straight to Hainan Daily. When you meet a person in charge, the first sentence is to declare that you are from Shanghai. I want to know the development of Hainan Special Zone and where the "talent market" is. The other party was very enthusiastic, holding my hand and repeatedly saying, "Hainan welcomes Shanghainese, and it is a good thing for young people to devote themselves to Hainan." Later, he wrote a note, but it was not a letter of introduction, but a hand-drawn sketch of how to get to the "talent market".

Quickly find the building of Hainan talent exchange service center according to the sketch. As soon as I entered the hall, it was crowded with young people from all over the country looking for jobs. Men, women and children, everyone's face seems to confirm a dream of a better life. These people seem to have been here for several days, exchanging ideas about finding jobs. I also crowded in, happily filling out a visitor registration form and a talent information exchange form.

I want to stay a little longer, but the bad air in the room makes me breathless. Xiao Ming and I sat down in the snack bar opposite the "center". It costs a lot of money to eat a snack casually. Hi! What a big expense here! I didn't expect this.

At the entrance of Haikou Park, I met a middle-aged fortune teller. He was dressed simply, with a lot of dust on his face, and whispered to everyone passing by, "fortune telling!" When you calculate it, it is smart. If it doesn't work, you don't need money. "On the ground, there is a crumpled fortune-telling guide. After some conversation, I learned that he is also from Shanghai. He has been here for several months, but his job has not been decided yet. Seeing that both of us have the intention to settle in Hainan and seek a big development strategy, he opened his eyes wide and asked if we had the ability to "blow". We replied with one voice: "No! "

"no!" He said, "If not, don't stay here. Let's give up and go back to Shanghai as soon as possible! " ! The infrastructure here is really poor. When water is needed during the day, power is cut off, and when electricity is needed at night, there is no electricity. This poor life is absolutely unacceptable to Shanghainese. Besides, it is much more difficult to find a job here than in Shanghai. Boring! I want to earn more money to go back. "

As soon as this was said, we both stared at his face at the same time and felt that we were not lying. In my mind, our ambition to serve Hainan has been cultivated for a long time, and we have seen it cut in half. But I still refuse to accept it in my bones and plan to try my luck in Sanya.
