Chapter 2228

That day, secretary Xiao Xu came in and informed me that Ma Li wanted to see me. I was reading a document at the time, and I didn't react for a while. I immediately looked at Xiao Xu in confusion, "Ma Li?"

Xiao Xu said: "He is our former Chairman Ma's younger brother."

Only then did I react, "Oh. Then please invite him in."

After a while, I saw a thin man in his thirties come in. He had a short haircut and a smile on his face. After he came in, he called me respectfully: "Mayor Feng...

..”

I pointed to the chair in front of the desk, "Please sit down. Wait for me for a while."

He came over and sat down, and Xiao Xu made him a cup of tea. I continued to read my documents, and at the same time secretly observed him with the corner of my eyes. I found that he was sitting there looking a little uneasy, but I could feel it.

, he was trying his best to restrain his uneasiness. He did not look at the documents in front of me, but occasionally glanced at my face with his eyes.

I am secretly satisfied because his performance actually shows that he has the minimum quality. Many people will expose their own shortcomings at this point, because many people will be confused by the documents that the leader reads.

I feel curious about something, so I can't help but take a peek. But as a subordinate who is engaged in administrative work, this is a particularly taboo thing.

Later, I felt his state of relaxation, his breathing was steady, and I felt secretly satisfied. This shows that he has good self-control ability and can quickly control his nervousness.

I am the mayor, and because something called power is poured into me, I will naturally produce an aura. As subordinates, they will naturally feel nervous in front of me. To be precise,

, their nervousness is not because of me as a person, but because of the thing called power attached to me.

I put down the pen in my hand, put the documents in front of me to one side, and then asked him kindly, "Captain Ma, what do you want from me?"

He replied cautiously: "Mayor Feng, I don't have anything to do. I just want to report to you about my work."

I suddenly chuckled in my heart: Isn't this too cliché? It was obvious that he was here today to inquire about the information I had arranged for him, but he couldn't ask me directly.

I smiled slightly at him and said, "Oh. Then you can report it."

He was startled for a moment. He probably didn’t expect me to speak like this. In fact, I was very gentle. After all, I was doing it for his brother’s sake, so I didn’t have any intention of rejecting his so-called reporting work. He and I

There was such a big difference in level. If I didn't want to talk to him, I could have rejected him immediately with this sentence - you should report to your director. However, he responded relatively quickly and said immediately:

"Mayor Feng, let me introduce my situation to you. I am the captain of the law enforcement brigade of the Municipal Forestry Bureau. My main job is to carry out protective law enforcement for our city's forestry resources..."

Immediately, he gave me a brief introduction to his main work and his work results over the years. In fact, I was not interested in this situation of his, because the so-called work results he mentioned were still routine.

Sexual work does not mean how innovative he is.

I think the most important thing about a person is his innovative ability and different way of thinking. For example, when I chose Yu Yong, I saw these advantages of him. So I decided to use the same method I used to examine Yu Yong.

Examine the person in front of me.

I thought about it and decided to test him with several interview questions commonly used by foreign companies. First, I couldn't find a suitable question at the moment, because I haven't thought about which unit or position he should be assigned to.

On the other hand, I think questions from foreign companies are the best way to test a person’s IQ and ability.

There are essential differences in the way of thinking between Chinese and Westerners. The traditional way of thinking of Chinese people is from macro to micro, while the way of thinking of Europeans is from micro to macro. For example, traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, this is the relationship between the two.

.These two completely different ways of thinking determine that our way of thinking is often conservative and rigid, while the way of thinking of Westerners is lively and jumping. We have to admit that Westerners are much more creative than us.

Some people think that this difference in Chinese and Western thinking is mainly caused by the difference in Chinese and Western writing. Of course, writing is the written symbol of language, which is different from language and is not a tool for thinking. But as the most commonly used communication tool by people,

Tools and words undoubtedly have an influence on thinking that cannot be underestimated. The writing form of Western languages ​​is alphabetic writing. This kind of writing neither expresses shape nor meaning, but only expresses sound; that is to say, it completely cuts off the direct connection with image.

Contact is a symbol that purely records language. This alphabetic character that purely records language frequently and extensively stimulates people's brains, gradually forming the characteristic that Westerners are good at linguistic thinking, making their linguistic thinking particularly developed.

The Chinese written symbols are square Chinese characters, which not only represent sounds, but also represent shapes and meanings. This kind of text in which sounds, shapes, and meanings are interconnected provides a convenient tool for image thinking, making Chinese people good at image thinking.

Interview questions from foreign companies are often very difficult, requiring you to think outside the box in order to answer them satisfactorily.

I started to ask him the first question, "Suppose you are the owner of a company and you let the workers work for you for seven days. The reward for the workers is a gold bar. The gold bar is divided into seven connected segments. You must give the worker at the end of each day.

If they only allow you to break the gold bar twice, how do you pay your workers?"

He immediately looked at me in astonishment. I smiled and said to him: "This is an interview question for foreign company recruiters. I didn't mean anything else. I was just thinking that I don't know your situation very well, so I thought

Test your ability. At present, we in Shangjiang City are in need of a large number of capable cadres. If your ability is strong enough, then it is natural for us to arrange you to the right position. In this way, you will feel at ease when you work in the future.

Yes. You think so?"

Although I said this, I couldn't help but start to ask myself: Is it too harsh on him to examine his ability in this way?

He thought for a while. While he was thinking, I was reading the document and said to him: "Think slowly and tell me when you have the answer. Don't be nervous, I will not limit the time for your answer today. Answer

It doesn’t matter if you don’t come out, it’s like we are playing an intellectual game.”

But what I didn't expect was that he answered my question in less than ten minutes. He said: "If you break it twice, it should be divided into three parts. I divided the gold bar into one seventh, two sevenths and seven

Four-thirds. In this way, I can give him one-seventh on the first day; I will give him two-sevenths on the second day and let him get back my one-seventh; and I will give him again on the third day.

One-seventh, plus the original two-sevenths, is three-sevenths; on the fourth day, I gave him the four-sevenths and asked him to retrieve the two gold bars of one-seventh and two-sevenths.

"On the fifth day, give him another seventh. On the sixth day, do the same as the second day. On the seventh day, give him the seventh seventh."

I was secretly surprised in my heart, because I didn't expect that he could really answer it. I nodded slightly to him, "Yes. Now let me ask you the second question. This question is much more difficult. Listen carefully: Xiao Ming's family is now

Crossing a bridge, it is dark when crossing the bridge, so there must be lights. Now it takes Xiao Ming one second to cross the bridge, Xiao Ming's brother takes three seconds, Xiao Ming's father takes six seconds, Xiao Ming's mother takes eight seconds, and Xiao Ming's grandfather takes ten seconds.

Two seconds. A maximum of two people can cross this bridge at a time, and the speed of crossing the bridge depends on the slowest person crossing the bridge, and the light will go out thirty seconds after it is lit. Please tell me, how does Xiao Ming's family cross the bridge?

"

In fact, to be precise, the difficulty of this question is similar to the previous question. This type of intellectual question actually tests the applicant's ability to solve problems under restricted conditions. However, I deliberately increased the emphasis in the question just now.

I increased the difficulty of his answer because I hinted to him that this question was difficult. I did this to test his ability to solve problems after increased pressure.

He thought for a long time, and while he was thinking, I continued to look at my files and the reports typed up by the departments below. After about half an hour, he smiled bitterly and said to me: "Mayor Feng, I can't answer your question.

.I was thinking about asking Xiao Ming to take all his family members across the river separately, but it doesn’t seem right.”

I smiled at him and said: "This is your conventional thinking. Change your way of thinking. Let me remind you: you should decide who comes and goes with the lamp according to the specific situation, just make a few changes."

After another ten minutes, he suddenly said to me: "Mayor Feng, I know the answer."

I looked at him with a smile, "Tell me."

He immediately said: "The first step is for Xiao Ming and his brother to cross the bridge, and it takes four seconds for Xiao Ming to come back; the second step is for Xiao Ming and his father to cross the river, and it takes nine seconds for his brother to come back; and the third step is for his mother and grandpa to cross the river.

, it took thirteen seconds for Xiao Ming to come back; finally, it took four seconds for Xiao Ming to cross the river with his brother, and it took a total of thirty seconds. Mayor Feng, is this okay?"

I was still looking at him and smiling, "What do you think?"

He was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I think my answer is right."

I immediately said: "Captain Ma, as I said before, today we are playing a game. The questions I will give you today are mostly used in recruitment interviews of multinational companies, and they are used to examine a person's way of thinking and the changes in his way of thinking.

Ability plays an extremely obvious role, and according to some studies, such ability is often closely related to the state of adaptability and innovation at work. Therefore, when answering these questions, you must break through the stereotypes, try to consider the problem from different angles, and keep doing it

Reverse thinking and empathy. Your performance today is very good. I didn't expect you to have such a strong ability, and I found that you also have another ability, that is, you can stick to your correct opinions. But you also exist

Some questions, such as the ability to resist stress are relatively poor. In fact, the difficulty of the second question is similar to the first question, but I hinted that the second question is more difficult. As a result, you spent so much more time.

Time. In addition, your thinking is still relatively stereotyped. But this is not your personal problem. The main reason is that the unit you worked for before does not require you to think about problems in that way, or you feel it is not necessary, and it is also because your current leader does not do that.

I’m asking you. Do you agree?”

He nodded, "Mayor Feng, you are right. Mainly because it is my first time to talk to you so close, so I feel very nervous. Many people say that you are a university professor and your way of thinking about problems is different. As soon as I came here today,

You asked me such a question. This is the first time I have encountered it, so I feel even more nervous. But I feel very honored, and I know that not everyone can have such an opportunity." (To be continued)
