Although it had been a long time since the incident, it remained vivid in Xu Mo's mind. It was on a transoceanic flight when the plane malfunctioned right over the Bering Strait.
The plane tilted violently at that time, with the rudder severely offset and completely jammed. Upon discovering the plane's malfunction, I contacted the nearest airport control tower immediately.
After spiraling for over two hours, the plane finally landed on the runway at a sliding angle. Fortunately, the direction was adjusted in time and the plane came to a steady stop, with all 386 passengers unharmed.
The subsequent inspection revealed that the tail power control module was completely damaged, with the piston overload causing the rudder to skew and jam.
Having finished his account, Xu Mo pointed to the faint "scar" on his face,
"This scar was left behind then."
"Would such a small scar affect my future career?"
Xu Mo's face betrayed hints of anxiety and unease as he spoke.
He seemed rather worried that the scar would impact his career as a pilot.
The manager shook his head without a second thought.
"No, we're in civil aviation here, not fighter jets. This kind of small scar makes no difference. Moreover, can this scar be compared to ordinary ones? This is a mark of honor! If anyone dares to say this scar will affect your career, I'll argue fiercely with them!"
Hearing this, the faintest of smiles appeared at the corner of Xu Mo's mouth.
He had looked it up online before coming.
All airlines were short on pilots.
Needless to say for a pilot like Xu Mo who had abundant experience and tremendous psychological strength that saved hundreds of lives.
Which airline wouldn't covet such talent?
Not only would this small scar not impede a pilot's career.
On the contrary, it would evoke admiration within the airline.
Greatly increasing his chances of getting hired.
It was worth noting that the manager who received Xu Mo once nurtured a dream of becoming a pilot himself.
But due to various reasons, he could never become one in the end. He had to settle for coming to work in an airline.
At heart, this manager greatly admired and even envied pilots.
Let alone heroes like Xu Mo.
In his eyes, the scar on Xu Mo's face was a badge of honor.
Within the brief exchange, the manager not only had no doubt about Captain Xu Mo's identity.
On the contrary, Xu Mo's image became even more towering in the manager's mind.
He had practically become the image of a hero.
How could he imagine that the man standing before him was not even a pilot at all, had absolutely no clue how to fly a plane, and had never even set foot in a cockpit!
He couldn't fathom it.
Because he had preconceived the notion that Xu Mo was a hero.
An extraordinarily experienced pilot.
In reality, the story Xu Mo just recounted was a real incident he had looked up online.
With his brain cells more active adding 2 points, Xu Mo's rote memorization ability had improved considerably.
He did nothing else the past two days in the hotel.
Just memorizing all kinds of data on every passenger plane, and methods to safely land a plane under different malfunctions.
No matter what questions the manager asked Xu Mo now on basic knowledge a pilot should grasp, or some operational problems.
Xu Mo could rattle off fluent answers.
He even understood things the airline executive didn't know much about.
Xu Mo had practically become a theorizing king at the moment.
He was an invincible existence in theoretical domains.
Even veteran pilots likely didn't know as much as him!
Although the manager had decided to hire Xu Mo already.
He still asked some routine questions related to planes and operations.
And with a desire to learn, even raised some issues he didn't understand well himself.
Xu Mo fielded every single question the manager asked flawlessly.
The manager's face also gradually revealed a smile.
Thinking to himself that this was truly invaluable talent.
He had picked up a gem this time.
As for fundamental knowledge a pilot needed to grasp, Xu Mo could answer everything.
Even stuff the airline executive barely understood, Xu Mo could respond to.
What if not talent was this?
This was exactly the talent their airline needed!
Xu Mo's interview lasted over an hour.
The manager admired him more and more.
He decided on the spot to hire Xu Mo.
Yang Jingxuan standing to the side listened dumbfounded.
When she looked at Xu Mo, her eyes were full of stars.
She didn't expect that not only could Xu Mo fly planes, but he was a hero too.
Having saved hundreds of lives before.
Not just her, even the livestream viewers were stumped.
The plethora of professional jargon Xu Mo and the manager exchanged left them completely befuddled.
The two chatted for over an hour.
Xu Mo managed to answer every question and caught every remark.
It made the viewers feel somewhat inadequate.
How come they suddenly felt like Xu Mo really could fly a plane?
"He got hired just like that?"
"How does Xu Mo know so much? Don't tell me he really can fly a plane?"
"That's impossible. Didn't the show producers say this Xu Mo is just an ordinary white-collar worker?"
"Don't tell me all this knowledge is stuff he just crammed temporarily......That would be too freaky."
...
After Xu Mo's interview ended.
The manager finally looked to Yang Jingxuan.
Picking up the resume Yang Jingxuan had handed him earlier.
He smiled and asked.
"You're here to apply as a flight attendant right? You came with Xu Mo? You two are boyfriend and girlfriend?"
"Yes.", Yang Jingxuan nodded.
Waiting for the manager to ask her some questions too.
But the manager merely glanced at her resume.
Then looked her up and down once.
And directly said.
"I understand your circumstances. Our company needs talents like you two to join. Come with me, I'll take you to sign the contracts."
To put it bluntly, the manager didn't ask much also because of Xu Mo.
With Xu Mo being so outstanding, how unqualified could his girlfriend be?
Moreover.
Xu Mo was the talent their airline sorely needed right now.
If Yang Jingxuan wasn't hired, leading to Xu Mo not wanting to join their airline either, that would be a huge loss.
Yang Jingxuan felt somewhat unbalanced inside.
How come my interview process was so different from Xu Mo's?
He was asked questions for a whole hour.
When it got to me, it was just one line asking if I came with Xu Mo?
And that's it?
Won't you ask me anything more?
"Manager...", Yang Jingxuan was about to speak when she got interrupted by Xu Mo.
"Manager, since we're both hired, could I make a request to have me and my girlfriend assigned to the same crew?"
"Of course.", the manager smiled, "No problem."
Under the manager's lead, Xu Mo and Yang Jingxuan quickly finished their hiring procedures.
The manager also arranged them into the same crew.
And brought them to the office.
After introducing Xu Mo and Yang Jingxuan to the office crowd, the manager left.
Upon learning Xu Mo was the new pilot for the company.
The flight attendants' gazes toward him changed somewhat.
Pilots had lucrative salaries of over a million a year.
They were highly sought after in airlines. Many flight attendants hoped to marry one.
As soon as the manager stepped out, the flight attendants swarmed over, eager to get acquainted with Xu Mo...
