Recently, the video "Teaching you how to ride the high-speed rail" released by self-media creator "Xiao Gongzi Xiao Zhang" went viral on the Internet.
How to take the high-speed rail, how to take the subway, how to rent a house... These "little things" that the public takes for granted may be the knowledge blind spots of migrant workers in cities.
Experts believe that it is necessary to set up a general knowledge class "teaching you how to integrate into the city". The key logic of urban operation is actually mutual assistance, contract, and tolerance.
Just after 7:00 p.m. on February 25, Luo Wenzhi, a 21-year-old young worker, walked into the classroom of the Kunming Bocuiyuan project department. In half an hour, the "New Citizen Class" he signed up for would start.
In order to ensure that migrant workers have a comprehensive grasp of industry-related skills, the project department has opened a free skill support night school for migrant workers. In order to solve the problem of newcomers who are not adapting to urban life, the night school has specially set up a "new citizen class".
How to take the high-speed rail?
How to rent a house?
How to take the subway?
These "little things" that the public takes for granted may be blind spots in some people's lives, including a large number of migrant workers who left their hometowns and went to the cities.
Learning to integrate into urban life has become their "first lesson in entering the city".
Everyone will have a "first time" in life
"My hometown is Daguan County, Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province. I have never been to a provincial capital city before. This time I followed my cousin to work in the city." Luo Wenzhi said that this was the first time he left the county seat and entered the city. On the construction site, it was the first time to attend a skills training class.
Although he longed for city life, on the first day of his arrival in Kunming, Luo Wenzhi found that he couldn't buy a subway ticket or take a bus. He felt a little more afraid of city life, worried that he wouldn't be able to adapt.
In January of this year, the self-media creator "Xiao Gongzi Xiao Zhang" released a video "Teaching you to take the high-speed rail step by step", which introduced in detail how to collect tickets, how to check security, how to find ticket gates, how to find platforms and seats, etc.
So far, the video has received 300,000 likes and 20,000 comments.
"Nowadays the rapid development of network information, you can learn it by watching short videos, which is very convenient." After seeing this video, Cun Mingsheng, a 25-year-old real estate career consultant, couldn't help but like "Xiao Zhang".
In 2017, Cun Mingsheng flew from Qujing, Yunnan Province to Guangdong for the first time to work. All the procedures before and after purchasing air tickets, ticket collection, security check, and ticket check-in were all recorded by himself after checking online, and then went to the airport step by step I figured it out.
In contrast, Cun Mingsheng's younger brother Cun Mingchang's "first lesson in entering the city" is much more worry-free.
"This year is the first time for me to go out to work by high-speed rail. After confirming the work location, the staff of Qujing City Human Resources and Social Security Bureau sent us a brochure of precautions for taking high-speed rail, subway, and bus." Cun Mingchang introduced to the reporter, The content of the foldout is very detailed, which liquids and which tools cannot pass the security check are marked.
In addition, Cun Mingchang also specially checked the rent price and traffic conditions of the place where the part-time job is located in advance.
He said: "Everyone will encounter many 'firsts' in life, and we need to keep learning in order to better integrate into urban life."
"New Citizen Classroom" opened on the construction site
"Now I have learned how to take the subway, ride a shared bicycle, shop online, and order takeout!" Luo Wenzhi has learned a lot from attending the "New Citizen Class" several times.
According to Li Zengyu, Secretary of the Party Branch of Kunming Bocuiyuan Project, the "New Citizen Classroom" adopts the method of "classroom + practical operation". The teachers are the chairman of the project labor union, the project engineer, and the police from the local police station. Training on certificate shopping, laws and regulations, civilized etiquette, and interpersonal communication knowledge.
It is understood that the Yunnan Branch of China Construction Second Bureau has opened a "green channel" for employment services in various projects in Yunnan and Guizhou. , the first lesson of urban life and other training and guidance.
Recently, 72 "new students" were welcomed to the Helping Night School located in the Bocuiyuan project department in Kunming, all of whom came from difficult areas such as Sichuan and Yunnan.
Zhang Tianqing, the project engineer, told the reporter that many workers in the training class specially came to participate in the training after work.
"During the training process, some students took notes with their mobile phones, and some students took notes with notebooks, which made us fully feel the importance of conducting this course well!" Zhang Tianqing said that everyone's active and enthusiastic learning spirit was very moving.
In order to allow more "new citizens" to integrate into the city as soon as possible, the company has also used the resources of the trade unions in each project department to set up a "worker service station". The service station provides travel guides, medical consultation, More than 20 voluntary services such as online shopping, rental application, and legal aid actively help workers solve "urgent, difficult, worrying, and hopeful" problems.
Located in Dali City, the Dali Huasheng New Energy Photovoltaic Project Department is far away from the urban area. In order to let new workers and employees familiarize themselves with the traffic routes, the volunteers of the project specially printed a pocket-sized traffic guide to facilitate everyone's travel Take it with you and check it anytime.
Let learning and kindness bridge the information gap
Yanzi, a senior counselor at the Yunnan Haoermo Psychological Counseling Center, said that everyone will have a "first time" in their life. Many migrant workers who enter big cities for the first time from rural areas, even if they know high-speed rail, subway and other means of transportation, have no idea. If you don't understand the specific operation process, you may sometimes have a sense of inferiority and resist new things.
"Worrying about being shy and making mistakes for the first time, we seem to have to do psychological construction every time we have this kind of thought. In fact, many people may have had similar experiences, especially when they came to a big city for the first time. Sometimes there will be an uncontrollable dazzling feeling, a kind of tension and anxiety at a loss." Yanzi said.
In her opinion, it is necessary to set up a general knowledge course on "teaching you how to integrate into the city". The key logic of the city's operation is actually mutual assistance, contract, and tolerance.
After the release of the video of "Migrant Worker Xiao Zhang" popularizing common sense, it quickly attracted the attention of the Internet. Some netizens thought, "People who have been living and studying in big cities may find it difficult to distinguish dogtail grass from corn ears when they go to the countryside. Everyone There are more or less areas of knowledge that I can't touch." Someone added that whether it is yourself or seeing others encounter similar subtle moments in daily life, you should be more calm and understanding.
In this regard, Xiang Rong, associate professor and director of the Institute of Social Work at the School of Ethnology and Sociology (School of Social Work) of Yunnan University, said, "Not everyone lives in a city from birth, and has the opportunity to take high-speed rail and planes since childhood. "She believes that everyone's growth environment and life experience are very different. Faced with life "examination questions" and knowledge blind spots outside of books and daily experience, whether it is a young person who is trying to take the "first step" in life, or it is difficult to keep up with technology. Old people who change will feel uneasy.
The reason why these seemingly "unnecessary" knowledge popularizations are not superfluous is that their appearance has helped many people avoid the "first" embarrassment and dilemma, helplessness and confusion.
