1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 4 Joining of Newcomers

The interview process starting from the second day was not as smooth as the recruitment of ordinary units. There were only more than 40 candidates from all over the world, and it took the preparatory committee three full days.This is because the cross-grading principles set by the Preparatory Committee have greatly increased the workload of each review, and the corresponding time spent has also been prolonged; the second is because of the principle of confidentiality, the Preparatory Committee Is it possible to show candidates evidence of another time and space in this interview, and it is indeed a technical job to fool people into lameness purely by lip service, not to mention that it is not just a matter of lameness now, is it They want to fool people into rebelling in another world.Fortunately, the five-member group of the preparatory committee is full of mouthpieces. Whether it is businessmen Tao Donglai and Bai Kesi, university lecturer Ning Qi, and American lawyer Gu Kai, they are all very good at speaking. I also worked as a company instructor part-time in the army for two years, and my ability to do ideological work is not covered.

It is also worth mentioning that during the interview process, the Preparatory Committee noticed that nearly [-]% of the candidates asked the same question with different attitudes: Will the Preparatory Committee interfere with the individual's marital status after the time of travel?

Everyone knows the subtext of this question, so no matter whether the questioner is secretive or open-minded, the preparatory committee with a unified caliber has already made a solemn promise to all the candidates participating in the interview: Wife will have it, concubine will also have it, loli training, maid training, these things can be available sometimes!

Of course, there are also some serious people wearing masks who expressed doubts about this, and the Preparatory Committee also made a corresponding explanation: Although the purpose of our journey is to overthrow the old society and build a new life, the older generation has taught us long ago. , the foreign is used for the Chinese, the ancient is used for the present, take the essence and get rid of the dross. For some old systems that are beneficial to the society to maintain stability and unity, and beneficial to the physical and mental health of the people, we should keep what should be preserved. the real purpose of the meeting.

Perhaps because of this booster, the final interview result was much better than the preparatory committee expected. Among the 47 candidates who came to Guangzhou for the interview, 23 directly decided to participate in the In the plan, another 12 people expressed that they would make a decision after careful consideration, and seven people chose to withdraw due to personal reasons.The few remaining people insisted that the organizing committee was a liar at all, and that the time-traveling plan without any evidence could be a new brainwashing trick created by the MLM group.If Tao Donglai hadn't told the candidates early in the morning that the organizing committee would not charge anyone any fees, and that all candidates who came to participate in the interview would be fully reimbursed for the round-trip fare, the skeptical few It is also hard to say whether the candidate will choose to call the police.

After the interview, Ning Qi, Yan Chujie and several candidates who passed the interview left Guangzhou and returned to their own cities to go through the resignation procedures.Baix suggested that people who have the conditions should temporarily apply for leave without pay, so as to reduce the social concern caused by leaving the job as much as possible.There is still about a year before the crossing operation. One of the most important things for all participants is to avoid attracting attention from others during this period. The more low-key the better, even if you want to sell your house or car after you go back, don’t make it public.After discussion by the preparatory committee, Baixie's suggestion was determined as a standard operating procedure, and even Yan Chujie, who wanted to go back and left immediately after resigning, finally agreed to obey the decision of the organization.

After the interview, the preparatory committee immediately tasted the sweetness of the new manpower to share the work, and also began to have excellent candidates to enter the preparatory committee's sight, such as the new IT man who joined the preparatory committee Meng congratulations.

Some of the candidates who participated in the interview chose to send their personal information to the organizing committee by email before coming, and Meng He was one of them.The content is this:

Meng He, male, 27 years old

Current occupation and marital status: professional code farmer

Personal expertise: brushing mobile phones, dismantling computers, installing systems, taking photos, cutting videos, and hacking routes.The winner of the three consecutive championships of the most popular male master in the Pacific Computer City of a certain city.

Hope and Advice for Crossing Operations: Kill all the boar skins!Rebuild the Great Han Kingdom!

After seeing this very brief self-introduction, the Preparatory Committee almost all believed that this was a funny person with a strong tendency to think of the emperor and Han and the habit of self-talking. The committee didn't like it very much, but the appearance of Meng He himself gave them a small surprise.

The whole interview process was actually lackluster. Meng He seized every opportunity to try to persuade the preparatory committee to accept his promotion of Huanghan ideology, but perhaps because the otaku character of the code farmer profession was too heavy, Meng He's oral expression skills were really limited and could not be at all. On a par with the Preparatory Committee's mouth-watering five-member team, it was not until the interview was over that Meng He showed two things that made the Preparatory Committee impress him again.

One is a standardized database. Menghe has written a data collection program that allows the server to automatically collect specified data from the Internet and organize and archive it according to certain classification rules. This is undoubtedly the same as Ning Qi’s previous suggestion. Coincidentally, at the same time, this method of automatic data collection can also greatly reduce the workload of relevant people when they are engaged in data collection and sorting.Moreover, with the basis of this database, the material preparation work can also be combined with it, and the progress of the preparation work in a certain industry can be easily inquired through the database, which can greatly improve the work efficiency under the current situation of insufficient manpower. Issues that the Preparatory Committee urgently needs to solve at the moment.

However, according to Meng He's own introduction, in fact, his starting point for this database was not so great.He made this database when he had nothing to do. The original purpose was to build a database of special film and television works as complete as possible, so that people who traveled to another time and space could continue to learn from teachers conveniently and conveniently. Posture, you don't have to worry about the lack of data in your hard drive, which will affect the improvement of your theoretical knowledge level.This obscene reason was naturally criticized by the members of the Preparatory Committee who boasted of integrity, but at the same time, the members also expressed that considering the overall situation and the physical and mental health of the majority of singles, the establishment of such a special data category is still very important. Necessarily, this work must be congratulated and grasped, and strive to be put into practical application as soon as possible.The fake foreign devil Gu Kai even said that he can provide hundreds of original European and American works in his collection to enrich the database content.

The second piece that Meng He brought out is an encrypted forum. The entry qualification of the forum must be a member of the preparatory committee or a candidate who has passed the interview and decided to join the traversal operation.The layout of the forum is mainly composed of several major sections including the announcement of the resolutions of the preparatory committee, the arrangement and progress of the preparatory work, opinions and suggestions, and chatting. This can effectively solve some of the shortcomings of the QQ group in the communication link, and also Greatly improving the efficiency of the preparatory work, and also giving ordinary members a public opinion channel to express their opinions publicly, it can be said to be a multi-pronged move.Meng He said that if this forum is functioning well, then it can be considered to continue to use this method on the server of the main base after crossing, as a public opinion bridge for crossing public to exchange opinions.

From a professional point of view, these two works are actually not too difficult, but what the organizing committee sees is Meng He's subjective initiative. Pre-class work like this.And such a positive working attitude is exactly what the preparatory committee needs now, which is short of major generals, so Meng He joined the front line like Ning Qi a few days ago and became a glorious member of the preparatory committee.Tao Donglai even asked Meng He to set up a new department to be responsible for information and data collection. Of course, Meng He was mainly responsible for technology, and Ning Qi was responsible for the policy check.

Meng He insisted on bargaining with the Preparatory Committee. In addition to the scope of work specified by the Preparatory Committee, he also won the Communications Department under his command, and finally forced the Preparatory Committee to pass his proposal to name the new department "" The mischievous taste of the Ministry of Information Industry gave up. This kind of ambition that was revealed from the beginning made Tao Donglai's goodwill towards him that he finally established plummeted a lot.Meng He, on the other hand, published the announcement of the grand establishment of the "Ministry of Information Industry" on the encrypted forum he called "House of Tucao".

The naming of this forum made the rest of the preparatory committee worry a little bit about whether the boring time-travel crowd would turn this place into a paradise for trolls and sunspots, but Meng He, who is an IT expert, would like to express his gratitude to them. Poor internet knowledge expresses serious contempt.There is nothing in a small local area network with less than a thousand users that can avoid the eyes of the administrator. As long as the administrator is willing to spend a little time, users have no secrets in this network. Even if the forum does not adopt the real-name system, The access IP address of each user will also completely reveal their identity.When necessary, the administrator can completely block certain users or block the function of speaking.

The kind of strict network control described by Meng Ge can't help but remind several members of the Preparatory Committee of a major power in East Asia in this time and space. It is precisely the use of strict network control methods to monitor domestic public opinion, which does not allow citizens to freely Make your own voice on the network, and you can't even connect to foreign websites.Yes, that's right, this crazy country is Beibang.

However, Yan Chujie, who originally expected to be able to recruit a few veterans to his command, was a little disappointed this time, because only one of the candidates who decided to join was actually a former soldier, named Wu Zhuo.This Wu Zhuo was originally a Baixie reader. After several screenings, he came to Guangzhou to participate in this interview.Probably more than half of Wu Zhuo originally planned to meet the author and then go home, but during the interview, Yan Chujie found out that this guy was actually from an orthodox major, and immediately made up his mind to keep him.

Wu Zhuo graduated from the People's Liberation Army Chongqing Institute of Communications, majoring in wireless communication technology. He was then assigned to a radar unit in the CD military region. He just retired from the army and returned home last year. He is currently a homeless person, but it is said that he will soon go to work in the local telecommunications department.The preparatory committee will never let go of this kind of talent who understands technology and has received formal military training. Under the double-mouthed attack of Yan Chujie and Baix, Wu Zhuo, who is also a bachelor, finally decided to join in.

But things didn't stop there. Meng He, who had just established the department and was still a bare-handed commander, immediately set his sights on Wu Zhuo, and asked the preparatory committee to "immediately transfer Comrade Wu Zhuo to the Communications Engineering Preparatory Office of the Ministry of Information Industry".Yan Chujie can't do it anymore. It's hard to have such a soldier. Although he is a technical soldier and not a combat soldier, he can't let Meng He, a guy who has never even touched a gun, snatch it away.The lawsuit continued until Tao Dong came here, and finally a mediation was finally made: as a technical talent, Wu Zhuo was usually arranged by the Ministry of Information Industry, and as a military personnel, he was unified under the command of Yan Chujie during the war.Yan Chujie, who got this result, flew home angrily to go through the resignation formalities, while Tao Donglai needed to make a reply as soon as possible to the "Material Procurement Planning Budget List of the Ministry of Information Industry" jointly submitted by Meng He and Wu Zhuo.

The IT part that Meng He is in charge of planning is mainly based on the construction of server units. According to Meng He, all the information that the traversing people have must be stored in the server, which can be regarded as the brains of the traversing people. In order to protect these servers In another time and space, the service life can be extended as much as possible, so all the components must be the best, so the total price of the reported server unit has exceeded 300 million.

Tao Donglai thought that even though I had money, I didn’t spend it like this, so he immediately criticized Meng He: “This five-pack intelligent constant temperature server cabinet is expensive, and I will accept it, but the inside is You don’t need to buy a server, okay? There are more than 60 Inspur Tiansuo servers with eight CPUs. Are you sure this is used as a data database, not to launch a spaceship to Mars? Don’t scare me because I don’t read much! "

Meng He answered him very seriously: "Not being used now does not mean not being used in the future. What if our descendants plan to engage in the aerospace industry in a few decades? I am going to suggest you buy a few IBM minicomputers and seal them up for future use." For future generations, the price is not very expensive, and each set is more than 80..."

"Stop, stop, there is also the plan listed below for the unified procurement of military-standard three-proof notebooks. The per capita investment is more than 2 yuan. Have you calculated the return on investment?" Seeing that the situation is not good, Tao Donglai hurriedly changed the subject. .

"This is considering the local high temperature and high humidity climate environment in Hainan. Military-standard three-proof notebooks have a greater advantage in service life, and the unified specifications are also easy to maintain. In fact, it reduces the cost of use in disguise." Do not back down.

"No, your procurement plan must be changed! Our procurement should focus on practicality, and we don't need to highlight how strong the functionality is! As for the three-proof notebooks... only small-scale purchases, no more than [-] units. There are also unified computers. Regarding specifications, we can suggest brands and models to participants, but there is no need to impose anything. In a word, this budget must be cut down for me!" Unable to convince Meng He from a technical point of view, Tao Donglai had no choice but to take administrative means.

Meng He went out angrily, leaving only Wu Zhuo with a harmless face.After Tao Donglai calmed down his emotions, he said to Wu Zhuo: "I have also read your procurement plan. I understand that you need to purchase a large number of transmitters, radio stations and walkie-talkies. I think several sets of wireless local telephone systems can also be purchased. , but what is the situation with a budget of about 50 yuan listed in this 'unfinished business'?"

"Then let me explain that the items clearly listed in the procurement list are all products of civilian specifications, and the budget of 50 yuan is for military products, which are obviously stronger than civilian products in terms of survivability and environmental adaptability, but the problem is The difficulty in procurement channels for military supplies is relatively large, so I will temporarily replace them with unfinished matters. Considering that we may face a large number of naval battles, field battles, siege warfare and special operations in the future, information-based means of warfare will be of great help to us. It is a very important advantage. Of course, this number is only a temporary estimate, and we may need to make further adjustments in the future based on our actual number of people." Learning from Meng He's lesson just now, Wu Zhuo did not speak too hard so as not to anger the other party Another purpose, of course, is to vaccinate Tao Donglai in advance.

This time Tao Donglai thought about it for a while, and finally took out the checkbook and signed it: "There is no rush for military-regulated products for the time being. We will slowly find a way. It is really impossible for Gu Kai to purchase from abroad."
