It took another half hour to arrange accommodation for Qiao Xin. After returning to the post-apocalyptic bunker, it was already past 2 a.m.
Although Chen Yu was exhausted after a long day, he was still moved by the hopeful looks in Qiao Meng and Yang Yue's eyes.
Chen Yu couldn't bear to refuse.
After working hard for more than two hours, he was finally able to get away and rest after the two of them had shared the rain.
…………
Over the next few days, Chen Yu enjoyed a rare period of peace and tranquility in the post-apocalyptic bunker.
Only after the base personnel had finished moving all the research equipment and production lines he had brought back did he once again leave Tianyu Base in his Apapa attack helicopter, under the reluctant gazes of Qiao Meng and Yang Yue.
This time, he went directly to the Haidu branch base.
After a period of rectification, the Haidu branch base has completely eliminated all members who had infiltrated the base through various improper means.
Through Liu Menghan's reforms, the process and standards for recruiting members at the base were also revised.
Now, all that's left is for Chen Yu to approve it before we can start recruiting on a large scale again.
"Mr. Chen, how is my new recruitment system? Isn't it much more objective than your previous one?" Liu Menghan looked at Chen Yu expectantly, her eyes sparkling with confidence.
Chen Yu took a deep breath and turned to look at Qi Xiaowei: "Old Qi, pass on the word that the Tianyu Haidu branch base has officially launched a new recruitment system and will begin large-scale recruitment immediately."
Although he did not directly answer Liu Menghan, his decision undoubtedly showed his attitude.
"Hehe~!" Liu Menghan covered her mouth and chuckled. "Mr. Chen, so, according to what we discussed before, does that mean I'm officially a member of your Tianyu Base now?"
"Hehe, I keep my word," Chen Yu said with a faint smile.
“Thank you, Mr. Chen, but as we agreed before, I don’t want to just be an ordinary member in Tianyu Base.” Liu Menghan winked playfully and continued, “I want a position where I can use my strengths, like, how about the deputy base chief of Haidu Branch Base? I believe that with my abilities and understanding of the base, I can definitely handle this position.”
Chen Yu raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "You really dare to think that way."
Just as Liu Menghan was about to say something, Chen Yu continued, "Forget about being the deputy base chief of the Haidu branch, how about going to the Tianyu base headquarters?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Menghan's eyes lit up. Through her interactions with the Haidu branch base over this period of time, she naturally knew the gap between the branch base and the headquarters.
These branch bases, to put it nicely, are nothing more than appendages. All of Tianyu Base's rare resources and decision-making power are concentrated in the headquarters. The branch bases often just carry out the headquarters' orders and lack autonomy and room for development.
Although the competition at headquarters might be greater, Liu Menghan has always preferred to be the tail of a phoenix rather than the head of a chicken. She is confident that with her abilities, even at headquarters, she will be able to stand out and become someone admired by thousands.
So she immediately replied, "Sure, but what kind of seat are you planning to give me?"
Chen Yu glanced at Qi Xiaowei beside him, and Qi Xiaowei understood and left the room.
Once only Chen Yu and Liu Menghan were left in the room, he took out a tablet computer, pulled up a file, and handed it to Liu Menghan.
Liu Menghan took Chen Yu's phone, carefully examined its contents, and asked in confusion, "Is this research data about telomerase? Mr. Chen, what is this...?"
Chen Yu smiled slightly, a deep meaning flashing in his eyes: "I'll give you a chance. As long as you can provide a valuable telomerase research plan based on this information and gain the approval of our technical staff, I will recruit you as a core member of the Tianyu Base."
Hearing Chen Yu say this, Liu Menghan smiled wryly and said, "Mr. Chen, even if you're just making empty promises, this is hardly perfunctory. Are the core members just doing research?"
"The progress of human civilization comes from science and technology. In my Tianyu base, science and technology are of paramount importance, and telomerase technology is of paramount importance. You understand what I mean, right?" Chen Yu looked at Liu Menghan with deep eyes.
Liu Menghan was slightly taken aback, then understood the weight of Chen Yu's words. She took a deep breath, suppressed her doubts, and nodded seriously: "I understand, Mr. Chen. I will do my best to produce a valuable telomerase research plan to prove my abilities."
"Very good." Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction. "By the way, about telomerase, you should keep it to yourself and not spread it around."
Liu Menghan nodded solemnly. No wonder Chen Yu had sent Qi Xiaowei away earlier; it was for the sake of secrecy.
Qi Xiaowei, as Chen Yu's confidant, deputy commander of the "Anti-Cold Disaster Relief Militia Corps," and head of the Tianyu Haidu branch base, was not allowed to freely know the secrets about telomerase, which shows how much importance Chen Yu attached to this matter.
Thinking of this, Liu Menghan felt a chill. If she couldn't pass Chen Yu's test and become a core member of the Tianyu Base, would Chen Yu... completely eliminate her to keep the secret? As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, Liu Menghan quickly shook her head, trying to banish this terrible idea from her mind.
She looked up at Chen Yu, and their eyes met. Chen Yu was staring at her with a half-smile, as if he could see right through her.
…………
The Tianyu Haidu branch has restarted its recruitment of new members with great enthusiasm. Following this relatively mature recruitment system, the recruitment of members for the Wenhan branch has also begun.
The cleanup of the remnants of the Frost Alliance is nearing its end. Chen Yu ordered Lin Lele to withdraw all 30,000 militiamen, leaving the remaining cleanup and subsequent defense work to Yang Tiejun.
Chen Yu trusted Yang Tiejun, who was Yang Yue's father.
One year and one month after the extreme cold disaster struck, Chen Yu planned to accelerate the "rescue and protection" of scientific research resources and personnel. Otherwise, many valuable research materials and talents might perish in the extremely harsh environment. Chen Yu understood that time was of the essence, and every minute and every second was crucial.
With the equipment of the "Cold Relief Militia Corps," no force can stop the Great Xia now.
To achieve greater efficiency, Chen Yu divided the 30,000 militiamen into three groups.
One group headed south to be responsible for "cold-weather relief" work in cities such as Shenshuigou and Yuezhou; another group headed east, crossing the frozen Taiwan Strait, to be responsible for establishing a branch base in Taiwan; and the remaining group was responsible for "disaster relief" in the southwest region.
In addition, several major branch bases that have already matured in various aspects have begun to rapidly expand outwards, carrying out "cold relief and disaster relief" in nearby provinces and cities.
