The disarmament of the Royal Navy was carried out in two batches, the first of 17,000 men and the second of 24,000 men, totalling more than 41,000 people who are about to leave the Royal Navy.
Disarmament is in principle the survival of the fittest, and those old guys whose thinking or physical strength can no longer keep up with the development of the times, or those who are undisciplined and problematic, or the old slippery heads who are not enterprising, will leave the Royal Navy this time.
There will definitely be deviations in the actual implementation, some guys who don't meet the standards but have strong backgrounds are still as stable as Mount Tai, some officers with excellent abilities but civilian backgrounds have also been kicked out of the army, and those who are not used to the various unspoken rules within the Royal Navy and are out of step with the environment are even more eliminated.
In a small two-storey building behind the officers' quarters, the Christians Human Resources branch in Portsmouth is located.
Managing Director Nelson Nancy, who is of French descent and half British descent, has become a Southern African citizen, having worked in the mining industry after graduating from the University of Birmingham before joining Christian Human Resources where he was appointed General Manager of Portsmouth for his outstanding work.
In the conference room on the third floor of the branch, the professional managers of each department hold a collective meeting every Monday to summarize the work of the previous week and arrange the work tasks of the week.
During this time, Christian Human Resources Company had only one task, that is, to find more and better talents from the Royal Navy and send them to Southern Africa, and they could bring their families with them, and the cost of Christian Human Resources Company was all-inclusive.
"I have a couple of excellent senior officers here who are willing to go to Southern Africa, but are not satisfied with the salaries we offer, according to them, to go to Southern Africa is to be stationed overseas, on top of the existing salaries, plus overseas allowances." Brandon Goss, the manager of the first department, is a native of London, he graduated from Cambridge University, has worked as a practicing lawyer, and his ability is not bad.
"Then give it to them, as long as their ability matches the salary, even if they ask for 5,000 pounds a year, we can afford it." Nelson Nancy is not bad for money, or the Southern African Navy is not bad for money.
Although the Southern African Navy is also part of the Royal Navy, some of them are always unable to overcome the hurdle in their hearts when it comes to letting these senior officers who have served in the Royal Navy for more than ten or twenty years serve in the Southern African Navy.
People go to high places, and water flows to low places.
At this time, it is necessary to give them enough reasons, a higher salary is a good breakthrough, all for life, not chilling.
"The salaries we offer them are not low, they are higher than those of the same rank of southern African naval officers, and if they are raised, we have to take into account the mood of the southern African naval officers." Senior Department Manager Sean was of Chinese descent and graduated from the University of Nyasaland in 1917 and quickly rose to prominence as a general manager of the branch when he joined Christian Human Resources.
Over time, there has been an increasing proportion of ethnic Chinese in senior management of Southern African companies.
Unlike the British and French, who commute on time and take regular vacations on weekends, Chinese people work hard, think flexibly, are good at solving problems, and are all workaholics by white standards.
I remember when Southern Africa was first established, when corporate executives or government employees were almost all white.
Now that Chinese Americans have accounted for a considerable proportion, the entry of new blood has brought about changes in the entire environment, and those who cannot keep up with the development of southern Africa will be eliminated, and what is left in the end is to advance together as partners.
"This is a problem for the Admiralty to solve, and our task is to bring more talent to Southern Africa, and we can't cheapen the Cruise guys." Nelson Nancy's expression was solemn, Cruise is an American human resources company, also has a business in Portsmouth, in recent days, several Royal Navy officers who were originally willing to go to southern Africa chose to sign a contract with Cruise to go to the United States.
These former members of the Royal Navy who were swept away by the Royal Navy are absolutely sweet and sweet in the eyes of the United States and Southern Africa, not to mention that the United States, Southern Africa, and even Japan have headhunters in Portsmouth, hoping to bring Royal Navy talents to Japan.
Of course, few people are willing to go to Japan unless they are desperate.
"I think we also have to have certain criteria for choosing targets, and those naval officers who are capable, have a deep affection for the navy, and are willing to go to southern Africa, are our main targets; Those who are in it for money, for enjoyment, or just messing around, shouldn't be our target. "Sean has ideals, and the southern African immigrants are now starting to pick and choose, and the army is more demanding.
The Southern African Army is an army with ideals, beliefs and goals.
The "faith" here is certainly not a religion or a king, but the belief of the Southern African army is to protect the security of southern Africa, safeguard the interests of southern Africa, and let their families live in a peaceful and happy environment.
Roque has never stopped educating the army, from all kinds of patriotic propaganda, large and small, to the meticulous care of government departments and social institutions, as well as the high status of the southern African soldiers, which has strengthened the faith of the southern African soldiers anytime and anywhere.
"I'm afraid that there are few people who meet our goals, and the Lord seems to have said: not to talk about money but only about ideals is to play hooligans - it is not easy to get those naval officers to leave their homeland and go to southern Africa, of course it is convenient to draw a big pie, but no one can guarantee the effect." Brandon Goss faces the reality that the standards of the Southern African Navy are very high, they need to be capable, they need to be technically outstanding, they need to be of good character.
If there is such a brilliant talent, the Royal Navy will not let it go, don't think that Fisher and Jerico are fools.
"It's because talent is scarce, it's all the more precious - I have one here, Colonel Jackson Marshall, his resume doesn't look brilliant, from destroyer to cruiser, and now battleship is first mate, but his ability is absolutely outstanding, and his character is absolutely good, he is a true gentleman, this is the naval officer we need, if we take him to southern Africa, he is definitely capable of being the captain of a certain battleship, those who are mediocre and want a good salary, He deserved to be swept away by the Royal Navy. The Colonel Jackson Marshall that Sean cites is the first mate of the battleship "Ireland", which is about to be dismantled.
Colonel Jackson Marshall, 45, was born in Portsmouth in 1875 and aspired to join the Royal Navy from an early age.
After graduating from the Royal Naval Academy at Dartmouth in 1895, Jackson Marshall joined the Royal Navy, serving in the Royal Navy for more than 25 years.
Although Colonel Jackson Marshall is an excellent naval officer, the sad thing is that Colonel Jackson Marshall has served for 25 years and has never served as the captain of any warship, from the destroyer in the first service to the current battleship "Ireland", Colonel Jackson Marshall has always been the first mate, which also makes Colonel Jackson Marshall a "legend" in the Royal Navy.
"The legendary 'second in ten thousand years'? Don't be funny, I'll admit that he is very capable, but he has never been the captain of any warship and has no experience in this area at all. Brandon Goss laughed, experience is a very important criterion for the Navy.
It doesn't matter if you haven't served as a captain of a battleship, at least you have to have experience as a destroyer captain, and the legendary admirals in British history basically started from the position of destroyer captain.
A guy who hasn't even served as a destroyer captain is just like that with excellent ability in time.
"Lord Nyasaland also had no experience in this area when he was the commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Force-" Sean has a needle in his hands, you have to see how you understand this thing, sometimes it is a good thing, sometimes it is a bad thing:" - no one is a natural captain, experience is slowly cultivated, Colonel Jackson Marshall has 25 years of service experience, and every captain can cooperate tacitly, there has never been a conflict, this is a miracle in itself, the two ships that the Royal Navy is about to start construction' The fact that the captains of Nelson'-class battleships are said to have chosen Colonel Jackson Marshall as their first mate is telling. β
"Indeed, this shows that Colonel Jackson Marshall is a very good first mateβ" Brandon Goss insisted that Christian Human Resources could take Colonel Jackson Marshall to southern Africa, but it would be nice to continue as first mate instead of Colonel Jackson Marshall as captain of the battleship.
"Calm down gentlemen, we will not spare any income, as to whether they meet the standards of the Admiralty, it is up to the Admiralty to judge, our task is to take them to southern Africa, nothing more." Nelson Nancy casts a net everywhere to focus on fishing, real talents, no matter where they go, are in demand, but the standards for talents are different in different places.
"Yes, I will take Colonel Jackson Marshall to southern Africa, I insist on that." Sean is just as insistent, and it can't be said that he or Brandon Goss is at fault, it's all about work.
At the end of the meeting, the managers of various departments dispersed in a hurry, they were very busy these days, and their work had their own priorities, and the Ministry of Defense of Southern Africa paid Christian Human Resources Company handsomely, as long as someone went to Southern Africa, Christian Human Resources Company completed the task.
