Chapter 426 Immediate results
Spreading the word has become a reality in this day and age.

The educated youth who returned to the city did not have much savings. After returning to the city, they had to keep a low profile and endure humiliation in their own homes. Many of them did not even have a place to sleep at night.

Therefore, they are more eager for work than the unemployed people in their previous lives.

On the day of recruitment, long queues formed early in the morning at the Workers' Cultural Palace.

"Hey, have you heard? The person who interviewed us this time was a barber specially invited from Hong Kong by the government?"

"Yes, I know. Our street propaganda officer Yang also said that now the big leaders in our city no longer go to the old barber in Silian to get their hair cut. They all go to these Tonys."

"Who cares? As long as we can get jobs, it would be great if we can get houses too."

"Are you overthinking it? Apart from those large courtyard houses, where else can we find houses to share in Beijing?"

"Alas, even as a barber, I don't know whether the company will build houses and distribute houses in the future."

"Why do you want to think so far ahead? It's good enough to have a proper job now! Do you want to paste matchboxes on the street?"

"That's true."

The educated youth in the queue were very excited. Regardless of whether they knew each other or were familiar with each other, they all had a great time chatting.

There is a job in sight, money in pocket, and my family won’t be so hostile to me all the time.

As long as people have hope, who would want to cause trouble?

But the government departments are treating it as a formidable enemy. These educated youth may seem fine now, but trouble will easily occur when there are too many of them, especially since there is a group of people among them who always like to stand out.

Therefore, Dongcheng District dispatched a large number of police to maintain order.

In particular, the government officials were holding signs and walking back and forth, loudly announcing that the teachers selected for the service industry this time must be experienced, and those without experience would definitely not be accepted.

Even if you are successful in the application, you will still need to arrange courseware under the guidance of a teacher from Hong Kong for at least one to three months.

But still no one quit. If you look closely, you can see that the hair of these educated youths in the queue looks like it has been chewed by dogs. They must have practiced on each other in private.

Wang Deming is in charge today. He is mainly worried that the Tony teachers specially hired from Hong Kong are too arrogant and cannot see the good capital under the feet of the emperor.

Hong Kong's economy has been developing rapidly in the past 20 years. As it is a small place, with the help of the British, a certain perception of Hong Kong people has been formed.

The left and right newspapers of the early years gradually fell out of date, and most of the people who called themselves Hong Kong people, especially the younger generation, were caused by the British constantly changing Hong Kong's education policies and daily news guidance.

However, as long as Wang Deming is here, none of these Tonys from Hong Kong dare to make trouble.

Wang Deming wore a custom-made suit today and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looking like a gentleman yet a beast.

Teacher Tony, who was invited by him to come to Beijing, was also persuaded by him in advance to look a little more normal, without any makeup on his body, and his hairstyle was neat and tidy.

The clothes are mainly clean and elegant, white shirts, black pants, jackets and vests.

Those who wear strange clothes can wear them in private.

It was just like a normal interview, except that there were a lot of pictures of hairstyles hung in the interview room, and 10 educated youth who came to apply for the job would enter at a time.

After registration, choose a hairstyle picture and cut each other's hair.

Time limit: 10 minutes. "Mr. Guo, you are very talented, but you have not really learned yet. I believe that you will soon become an excellent barber after learning."

In fact, it takes less than 10 minutes, basically 2 minutes to make a batch.
The Tonys from Hong Kong couldn't bear to look at the horrific scene, otherwise, there would be a lot more bald heads today.

"Although you are not a teacher at our Barber and Beauty School for the time being, could you consider signing up to learn hairdressing from us?"

In order to prevent these educated youth from causing trouble after losing the election, not only the Hong Kong Tonys who served as examiners spoke to comfort and win them over.

The city government officials would give earnest advice to every batch of people who came out, saying that they could first come to the barber technical school to study.

To give subsidies.

Although it's a little less, according to national regulations, it's only 15 yuan a month, but it's enough to support yourself, right?

Especially if you learn quickly and well, you don't necessarily have to study for three years. As long as you get the approval of your teacher, you can become a barber in a newly opened barber shop on the street, with a guaranteed monthly salary of 28 yuan.

These are all small amounts of money. Not to mention a thousand students, even if you enroll 336, it would only be 10 million a year. If you enroll 3360, it would only be million a year. It is still small money.

It’s no wonder that Wang Deming’s two-pronged approach of recruitment and admissions is really effective.

In just one day, thousands of barber apprentices were recruited.

The educated youth who were not selected were not disappointed, because there were still follow-up catering and guest rooms, as well as excavator and other technical support.
Wang Deming sometimes feels secretly proud in his heart. He probably won't learn which restaurant is the best in the future. When he arrived in Shandong, there was Lanxiang. Or learn which chef is the best?
I have played all of them in Beijing.

I can only say that the government’s thinking is too advanced. Since they want to solve the problem of unemployment, why not open official technical schools?
Instead, they simply destroyed the first 30 years of technical secondary schools and vocational schools in one fell swoop.
Of course, this measure is only part of Wang Deming's plan.

The most important thing is that he invested money to collect all the current guesthouses in the capital and start the reconstruction.

I don't think there will be any problem if the scale of hotels in Beijing expands tenfold. Although the concept of tourism didn't exist back then, there were many people who came to Beijing on business or for inspection.

In addition, he invested another 1000 million US dollars to buy four plots of land in the east, west, south and north to build a high-end foreign-related hotel.

The most important thing is that he used foreign exchange to buy several large courtyard houses from the Beijing Municipal Government and some central departments. All of them had four courtyards and cross courtyards, and converted them into hotels.

These hotels have been restored to their original state but have been renovated with modern facilities inside. They are specially designed to accommodate foreigners visiting China.

As a result of these measures, a month later, the educated youth in Beijing had hope even if they did not yet have formal jobs. They were no longer as uncertain as before, and there were fewer troubles.

The educated youth stopped making trouble, but the children from the compound did not.
But this is not within Wang Deming's consideration. Anyway, those who want to die will be dealt with one day.

After a few months, when everything was on track, Wang Deming implemented the next plan.

That is to cooperate with the Beijing Real Estate Bureau.

The Beijing Real Estate Bureau was changed from the Beijing Land Administration Bureau in 56.

The Real Estate Bureau at that time managed all the houses in the capital, although a notice had been issued from above requiring the return of the property rights houses that were nationalized during the special period.

But even if it is returned, the transfer still needs to go through the Real Estate Bureau.

Of course, Wang Deming’s goal was not just to buy a few courtyard houses.

The most important thing is to cooperate with the Real Estate Bureau and use them to carry out demolition and purchase land.
