Xiao Yi established a rigorous selection criteria, encompassing personal skills, moral character, and loyalty to the base. Sitting at his slightly worn desk, Xiao Yi's brow furrowed, his gaze focused and serious. His pen scribbled furrowed across the paper, each word bearing the weight of his deep thought and unwavering resolve. Regarding personal skills, Xiao Yi meticulously outlined requirements, including combat prowess, survival skills, medical knowledge, and engineering expertise. He understood that in this perilous world, every skill could mean the difference between life and death. Regarding moral character, Xiao Yi was even more meticulous. He emphasized honesty, kindness, courage, and teamwork. He understood that a person's moral character determined their choices in critical moments, and that a corrupted individual could bring immeasurable disaster to the entire base. Xiao Yi was particularly thorough in considering loyalty to the base. He envisioned various scenarios that would test this loyalty, from steadfastly rejecting external temptations to remaining loyal to the base in times of crisis. He required everyone who wanted to join the base to put the interests of the base above their own and be willing to sacrifice everything for the base's survival and development. After Xiao Yi finished writing this set of screening criteria, he read and revised it repeatedly to ensure there were no omissions or ambiguities. He knew that this was not just a piece of paper, but also the guarantee of the base's future and the cornerstone of protecting everyone's safety and hope.
"We must ensure that everyone who enters the base contributes to its development, rather than posing a threat," Xiao Yi stated solemnly during the meeting. Xiao Yi straightened his back and stood at the front of the conference room, his gaze piercing the faces of everyone present. His voice was steady and powerful, echoing throughout the small room with an unquestionable authority. "Think about it, everyone. Our base is a refuge for everyone. It's our home in these troubled times." Xiao Yi rested his hands on the conference table, leaning forward slightly. "Every decision, every choice, is a matter of life and death for us." His eyes revealed deep worry and unwavering determination. "If we allow unsuitable individuals into the base, they may lack the necessary skills and be unable to perform at critical moments; they may become morally corrupt, causing internal conflict and strife; they may even have no loyalty to the base and choose to betray us when danger strikes." Xiao Yi paused, letting these words sink into everyone's minds. "We can't take this risk. We can't gamble with everyone's lives and future." His voice rose a few degrees. "Therefore, the screening criteria must be strictly enforced, and there is no room for negotiation." The conference room was silent at this time. Everyone was shocked by Xiao Yi's serious and passionate words. They understood that everything Xiao Yi did was for the future of the base and for everyone to continue to survive in this difficult world.
Applicants first need to submit detailed personal information, followed by rounds of interviews and practical assessments. Once interested applicants understand the process, they quickly begin preparing. They sit at their desks, meticulously and attentively filling out each personal profile. From basic information like name, age, and gender to past experiences, skills acquired, and even personality traits and life goals, everything is meticulously recorded. After submitting their personal information, the real test begins. The atmosphere in the first round of interviews is tense and serious. The interviewers, with serious expressions and sharp eyes, scrutinize each applicant's expression, posture, and responses. Questions pepper the room one after another, covering a wide range of topics, including their understanding of the base, their crisis management strategies, and their personal values. Applicants nervously answer, beads of sweat dripping from their foreheads, fearing they might miss out on a single mistake. Applicants who pass the first round of interviews barely have time to breathe a sigh of relief before they face the practical assessment. The assessment venue is meticulously designed with simulated scenarios. Some require demonstrating combat skills against professional sparring partners; others require completing complex mechanical repairs within a time limit; and still others require devising a viable survival plan with limited resources. Each assessment is filled with challenges, and applicants focus intensely, striving to demonstrate their abilities to the utmost. Round after round, each one a daunting challenge, each one determining whether they will finally enter the base and become a member of this great family.
These assessments cover a wide range of areas, from survival skills to teamwork, from knowledge to crisis response capabilities. In the survival skills assessment, applicants are placed in a simulated wilderness environment. They are required to demonstrate how to find water, identify edible plants, and build simple yet sturdy shelters to withstand the elements. Some skillfully apply their knowledge, quickly finding clear streams and cleverly constructing shelters from the elements using branches and leaves. Others, however, struggle and repeatedly encounter obstacles in their search for survival resources. The teamwork assessment is even more challenging. A group of applicants is given a complex task, such as carrying heavy supplies through an obstacle course. This requires a clear division of labor, with someone directing and coordinating, someone taking on the responsibilities, and someone ensuring safety. Teams that communicate well and collaborate effectively often succeed, while those that lack teamwork and operate independently tend to fall into chaos and difficulties. The knowledge assessment takes place in a quiet room. Applicants face multidisciplinary challenges covering astronomy, geography, medical knowledge, physics, chemistry, and more. Within a limited timeframe, they must rely on their memory and thinking skills to produce accurate answers. Some appeared confident and eloquent, while others furrowed their brows and racked their brains. The crisis response assessment was the most thrilling. Sudden alarms and simulated fire and earthquake scenarios tested the applicants' composure and decision-making abilities in extreme situations. They were required to quickly assess the situation, organize evacuations, and implement effective emergency measures. Those who remained calm and decisive stood out, while those who panicked and lost their minds were forced to leave the stage in disgrace.
The assessment staff are meticulous, paying attention to every detail, striving to select the best and most suitable candidates. At the assessment site, each assessor maintains a focused gaze, sharp as a hawk. They closely monitor the applicants' every move, not missing even the slightest expression or gesture. When applicants demonstrate their survival skills, assessors carefully observe whether they dig for water sources correctly and efficiently, whether they can accurately distinguish between toxic and non-toxic plants when picking them, and whether the materials and structures used in building shelters are appropriate and stable. Even a flawed rope-tying technique or an overly fragile branch will not escape their attention. During the teamwork assessment, assessors focus not only on whether the team ultimately completes the task, but also on each applicant's role and performance within the team. They look for proactive organizers, hard-working individuals who contribute silently, who skillfully resolve disagreements, and who falters at critical moments, hindering the team's progress. Those who attempt to slack off or shirk their responsibilities will be noted and harshly graded. During the knowledge reserve assessment, the examiner will carefully compare the applicant's answers with the standard answers. For those vague or ambiguous answers, they will ask further questions to dig deeper into the applicant's knowledge depth and understanding. A typo or confusion of a concept can be a mistake.
