Yangtze River Daily Wuhan client October 16 news (reporter Ai Chenguang trainee reporter Hu Huiyi correspondent Mei Zheli) ordinary people have the impression that auto repair, machinery, etc. are "tailor-made" for boys, and girls seem to have no luck with it. On October 15, the reporter came to the Wuhan First Vocational Education Center and saw that some girls were also active in this "engineering world", and they believed that the most domineering choice they had made from childhood to adulthood was to learn the "traditional boys' major".
Put away her beautiful clothes and change into work clothes, she is the only girl in the auto repair profession in ten years
When the reporter first met Zhao Xinyu, a girl at the Wuhan First Vocational Education Center, it was difficult to believe that this quiet girl was the only female student in the 2020 automobile application and maintenance employment class. "Before her, there hadn't been a single girl in auto repair for at least ten years." Lin Qi, director of the school's mechanical and electrical department, said, "At that time, when I was enrolling, I told her that learning auto repair would be very dirty and tired, so she carefully considered it, but she didn't expect that she said that she came for this major and must learn." ”
Zhao Xinyu claimed to have been very "wild" since he was a child, climbing trees, going down rivers, running wildly... The boys' favorite childhood entertainment also made up her childhood, and her mother often said that the family had a "tomboy". At the end of the middle school entrance examination, when Zhao Xinyu proposed that he wanted to learn auto repair, the family unanimously opposed - in the mother's view, the daughter is short and can't even move the tires, how to learn auto repair? But Zhao Xinyu feels that the employment prospects of auto repair are good, and girls who can do what boys can do can also do, and they are not afraid of suffering, and they will definitely be able to learn well. Unable to resist her daughter's insistence, her mother decided to support her choice of "the most domineering from childhood to adulthood".

The first year of auto repair needs to learn a lot of theory, Zhao Xinyu is determined to make the theory solid, study the engine structure diagram, chassis structure diagram, charging pile circuit diagram... After entering the ocean of auto repair, Zhao Xinyu found that "moving tires" had become the easiest thing. Each part of the car has a different name and function, in order to remember clearly and solidly, she often uses the morning and bedtime time to memorize theoretical knowledge, insisting on it for a whole year.
Although she had long been prepared for the practical class to suffer hardships, she was still upset for a while when the first class was stained with oil and stained her clothes. Zhao Xinyu told the Yangtze River Daily reporter that there is no air conditioning in the summer training workshop, and it is like being "steamed" after a class. Even though she had some inconveniences as a girl, she didn't lack a single lesson.
Last year, Zhao Xinyu signed up for the new energy vehicle technology team to learn the line detection and maintenance of electric vehicles and the assembly of charging piles. Electric vehicle circuit diagram and the previous learned gasoline car circuit diagram has a lot of similarities, before a whole year laid a good foundation so that she can quickly remember, more accurate practice, she told reporters: "In fact, auto repair is really not only rely on physical strength, sometimes we girls are more careful, memory is better, the practical stage can be faster to get started." ”
Before checking the battery of the electric car, Zhao Xinyu's last favorite thing is to wear gloves, her hands are relatively small, but the thick gloves of the insulation are wide men's models. She told reporters: "If I can decide the gender myself, I still want to be a girl, my mother is a tough woman, and I can also be a good person in the male major." ”
The girl who studied mechanics did not come out of the top three, and the boys in the class often "learned from her"
On the morning of October 15, the mechanical training workshop of Wuhan No. 1 Vocational Education Center was busy, and in the roar of various machine operations, students were debugging mechanical parts with great effort.
Wang Yayuan, who wears two braids, a gray hairpin and a pair of large glasses, stands next to a group of tall boys. She is a student in the school's 2020 mechanical college entrance examination class. In September last year, she resolutely chose this engineering major in the confusion of relatives and friends, vowing to "learn something famous".

"For me, learning machinery was both subtly influenced by my father and derived from my inner beliefs." Wang Yayuan introduced that when she was a child, she walked into the workshop where her father worked, and after seeing the exquisite machinery and metal materials on the ground, she became interested and dreamed that she could also make the machine fly in the future.
Wang Yayuan said that the professional technology he learned is a technology that uses digital information to control the mechanical movement process, and after construction and transformation, it can be widely used in many fields. "For example, programming skills in CNC technology can be applied to daily life, which can realize smart homes, facilitate life, and save energy."
Before hands-on exercises, students learn to draw the three-dimensional contour structure of the parts on the computer. As a beginner, everyone's foundation is on the same running line, and whoever takes the lead in understanding the tricks of painting can run in the front. "Mechanical parts cannot be disassembled for demonstration, and the back of the parts cannot be seen on the floor plan, which is a difficult point in drawing." In class, Wang Yayuan tried to divide the plasticine into several pieces, pinch out the appearance of different parts, and then splice them to find inspiration for painting. Sometimes there wasn't enough plasticine, so she closed her eyes, repeatedly recalled the image of the plasticine she had pinched, and then quickly painted. Class teacher Fei Yingying said: "Wang Yayuan often asks the teacher for advice immediately after painting, and then carries out correction exercises. It is normal for a part to be changed more than three times. Her drawing speed is at least half an hour faster than most of the boys in the class, and the boys often "learn from Wang Yayuan". ”
"When operating the lathe, there are many related matters that need attention, which not only requires students to be bold and careful, but also tests whether the students' theoretical knowledge is solid." Wang Yayuan said that she usually understands the name, use and use method of each part explained by the teacher, and does a good job of summarizing and sorting. Over the past year, Wang Yayuan has counted the parts on the lathe.
So far, Wang Yayuan's academic performance has never fallen out of the top three in the class. "I hope to be admitted to the ideal university in two years, continue to study mechanical engineering, and show myself on a bigger stage."
It is understood that the school's 2017 mechanical college entrance examination class of 4 girls Xu Jingwen, Song Panpan, Cheng Ruhong and Zhou Yunyan participated in the college entrance examination, and finally all of them were admitted to the university. Among them, Xu Jingwen and Song Panpan became the only 2 female students in the province who passed the skills college entrance examination (mechanical) to enter the university undergraduate. Chen Bin, principal of the Wuhan First Vocational Education Center, said that girls can not only learn the "traditional girls' majors" such as accounting and preschool education, but also have their own world in the "traditional male majors" such as auto repair and machinery.
