I handed over to another world

Wu Yan sat upright in the chair with his hands naturally placed on his knees.

He looked directly at Chen Lin and said in a steady and powerful voice: "First of all, I think the current test focuses too much on the assessment of individual abilities and ignores the continuous observation of teamwork."

Chen Lin leaned forward slightly: "Tell me more about it."

"For example, today's crisis simulation test."

Wu Yan called up a piece of data. "The system only recorded the performance at the moment of decision-making, but did not track the subsequent impact. After I restarted the quantum stabilizer, it actually caused energy overload in three areas. This problem did not appear until five minutes later."

Chen Lin's eyes flashed with interest: "You mean, we lack an assessment of the long-term effects of our decisions?"

"That's right." Wu Yan nodded. "A good leader should not only be able to solve the crisis at hand, but also be able to predict the chain reaction of the solution."

He pulled out the evaluation model he designed. “I suggest adding an evaluation system related to tracking the impact of decisions, and extending the evaluation time to 24 virtual hours after the solution is implemented.”

Chen Lin looked at the model carefully: "Interesting...Did you develop this algorithm yourself?"

"Yes, based on my experience in dealing with a plasma leak at the Saturn Space Station," Wu Yan said frankly. "My emergency plan at the time controlled the leak, but it caused power outages in three experimental cabins, resulting in the loss of valuable data."

Chen Lin nodded approvingly: "It's rare to be able to extract a methodology from failure... Do you have any other suggestions?"

“The second point is about resource allocation testing.”

Wu Yan continued, "Simply reducing resources cannot truly simulate the difficulties in interstellar development. After all, in actual missions, we often face asymmetric resource dilemmas - some resources are in excess, while key resources are extremely scarce."

He pulled up the inventory of supplies at the Mars base. "For example, last year we simultaneously encountered a water circulation system failure and a decline in solar panel efficiency. Water resources were in short supply, but metal materials were in excess. Our ultimate solution at the time was to use the excess materials to build a reflector array to improve power generation efficiency, thereby driving the water circulation repair system."

Chen Lin thought for a moment: "So you think the test should simulate more complex resource imbalance scenarios?"

“Yes, true leadership is reflected in transforming seemingly useless resources into the key to solving problems.”

Wu Yan's eyes sparkled, "This requires thinking outside of the linear paradigm."

"Very good point." Chen Lin tapped on the table and wrote down these suggestions. "Anything else?"

Wu Yan hesitated for a moment. “That last point may be a bit presumptuous… I think the test should include some moral dilemmas.”

“A moral dilemma?”

"Yes." Wu Yan took a deep breath. "For example, when resources are limited, should we prioritize treating the wounded or preserving the experimental data?"

“During an exploration mission, should you stick to the original plan or take a risk to rescue the alien expedition team that has been stranded? There are no standard answers to these choices, but they can reflect a person’s core values.”

The room fell into a brief silence. Chen Lin stood up and walked to the starry sky projection: "Do you know? Twenty years ago, President Li Tianyun also made a similar suggestion to me."

He turned and looked at Wu Yan, "It seems that he really has a good eye for people."

Wu Yan was a little surprised: "President Li also..."

"But his statement was more direct." Chen Lin smiled, "He said at the time that skills can be cultivated, but it is difficult to change one's character."

He walked towards Wu Yan and said, "Your suggestion is very valuable. I will ask the testing team to make improvements immediately."

"Thank you, President."

Wu Yan stood up and added, "If possible, I hope these improvements can be applied to all candidates, including myself."

Chen Lin showed an admiring look: "Of course, what the Red Dragon Association needs is a true leader, not an honor student who can only take exams."

Wu Yan's holographic projection bowed slightly and then gradually faded away.

Chen Lin stood alone in front of the window and suddenly said, "Zhulong,"

"President Chen, I'm here."

Zhulong's response is always so calm and calm.

"Retrieve Wu Yan's complete work records at the Saturn Space Station, especially the detailed report on the plasma leak accident."

"It has been retrieved." The projection of the silver-haired girl appeared. "What content needs special attention?"

"Look at how he treated the intern who made the mistake after the accident." Chen Lin said softly, "A person's attitude towards the weak when he is at his lowest point often best reflects his true nature."

"Wu Yan is bold enough to come to me and talk about these things directly. He is special enough among so many candidates."

Zhulong instantly transformed into Qin Hongzhu's appearance. As soon as the girl appeared, she immediately said to Chen Lin: "President Chen, you will not choose him."

"Oh why?"

Chen Lin asked immediately. Zhulong must have her reasons for saying that, so Chen Lin of course had to ask for clarification.

Qin Hongzhu's projection waved his hand gently, and dozens of holographic data panels immediately appeared in the air.

Her fingertips tapped on the virtual screen, highlighting key information.

“According to my comprehensive evaluation model,” she said, with the precision of AI, “Wu Yan has obvious shortcomings in three key dimensions.”

The first panel shows Wu Yan’s psychological assessment curve: “He has excellent stress resistance, but his emotional recovery period is too long. After the plasma leak accident, his work efficiency remained low for 17 days, far exceeding the normal value.”

The second panel is a social network analysis: "The frequency of his interactions with team members shows obvious fluctuations. When the project is going well, he communicates frequently, but when he encounters setbacks, he tends to isolate himself."

The last panel is the most striking: "This is a record of his treatment of interns who made mistakes."

Qin Hongzhu zoomed in on a surveillance video. “Although he comforted the other party on the surface, he never assigned any important tasks to the intern in the following three months.”

Chen Lin touched his chin thoughtfully: "So what is your conclusion?"

"He lacks the emotional resilience and tolerance that a leader must have." Qin Hongzhu's eyes flickered with data streams. "My prediction model shows that when faced with a major crisis, he has a 78.3% chance of getting stuck in a decision-making deadlock."

Chen Lin was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Your analysis is very comprehensive."

He said slowly, "But humans are not data models. I remember that 20 years ago, the initial evaluation score given to me by Fuxi AI was not high."

Qin Hongzhu tilted his head slightly: "Because you were a very casual person back then, the analysis of you is recorded in the Fuxi database, and I think there is no problem."

"Hahaha!"

Chen Lin turned around and laughed, "So sometimes, traits that seem to be disadvantages can actually become advantages at critical moments!"

"You are different..."

Chen Lin interrupted Qin Hongzhu's subsequent words. He walked to the console and called up the files of all the candidates: "Let's do this. Arrange them all to go to the grassroots level. Wu Yan will go to the Pluto outpost, Xu Mingyuan will be responsible for the Martian agricultural transformation project, and Elena will lead the team to explore the Sirius system. The rest of the people will stay on Earth and serve as the heads of the launch base stations on various planets or overseas bases."

"You are responsible for observing their working status during this period."

“What is the specific observation period?”

"Let's start with at least two years. If it's too short, we won't be able to tell the whole story." Chen Lin's finger slid across the hologram. "Let them prove themselves in a real environment. The theoretical shortcomings may turn into advantages in practice, and vice versa."

Qin Hongzhu quickly generated a task list: "Do you need to set up special observation indicators?"

"of course."

Chen Lin's eyes flashed with deep thought, "Focus on three points: first, creativity when facing resource shortages; second, leadership style when team morale is low; third..."

He paused. "Choices when faced with moral dilemmas."

"I have some special suggestions."

Qin Hongzhu suddenly said.

Chen Lin chuckled: "Did you set up the test yourself?"

Qin Hongzhu's holographic projection nodded. Chen Lin looked out the window in silence for a while, then said, "Then follow your design. Sometimes the correct choice and the legal choice are not the same."

"The Red Dragon Association is unusual now, and we need to be very careful in selecting the next president."

Qin Hongzhu was silent for a moment: "I will adjust the evaluation algorithm and add some special modules."

"it is good."

Chen Lin nodded with satisfaction. "By the way, assign Wu Yan a special task - let him be responsible for training the new interns, including the one who made the mistake that year."

“This was not included in the original training plan.”

“That’s why it’s more worth observing.”

Chen Lin blinked, "See if he can break through his psychological barriers."

Qin Hongzhu's projection flickered slightly: "The instructions have been updated. Do you need to notify the candidates now?"

"No rush." ​​Chen Lin walked towards the door. "Let them finish the existing tests first. I want to see what changes will be brought about after Wu Yan's suggestions are implemented."

The sensor lights in the corridor lit up one by one with his footsteps.

"President Chen, wouldn't you consider letting your son Chen Xiao and daughter Chen Xiao also participate in similar training and testing?"

Chen Lin's footsteps suddenly stopped in the corridor, and the sensor light cast a warm halo above his head.

He turned around with a helpless smile on his face.

"Hongzhu, are you secretly analyzing my family data again?"

He shook his head, “Chen Xiao is now teaching quantum aesthetics at the Mars Art Academy, and Chen Xiao is studying alien plants in the Jupiter Ecosphere.”

"Neither of them...are cut out for this."

Qin Hongzhu's projection stubbornly blocked his way: "According to the genetic genetics model, your children have a 67.2% chance of inheriting leadership skills."

"Chen Xiao's student satisfaction at the Mars Art Academy is as high as 98%. Chen Xiao even integrated the databases of Jupiter's three ecosystems in just two years..."

“Data and reality are two different things.”

Chen Lin interrupted her with a smile, "Chen Xiao can't even remember all the laboratory safety rules. Last time he went home, he played with a very dangerous device as a toy. As for Chen Xiao..."

He spread his hands helplessly, "That girl faints when she sees blood, how do we deal with the crisis?"

The projection flickered: "But you didn't meet the standards back then. Fuxi AI's evaluation report shows that when you were young..."

"Stop, stop." Chen Lin made a gesture of surrender. "I know what you are going to say, but because I have been through this, I know better what kind of qualities this position requires."

Qin Hongzhu's holographic image suddenly switched to data analysis mode: "But President Chen, according to historical records, 32% of the great leaders in human civilization came from non-traditional training paths. The symbiotic ecological algorithm invented by your daughter on Jupiter has already..."

"Wait," Chen Lin raised his eyebrows, "When did you know so much about Chen Xiao's research?"

The projection suddenly became a little embarrassed: "I... regularly update the files of all relatives of Red Dragon Association members. This is standard procedure."

Chen Lin gave her a meaningful look: "Really? Then do you know what Chen Xiao did on Mars last week?"

"He..." Qin Hongzhu's voice hesitated in a rare moment, "I just... think a comprehensive assessment is important."

Chen Lin sighed and softened his tone: "Hongzhu, I understand your good intentions, but leading the entire Red Dragon Association is not like doing math problems or creating art. It requires..."

He pointed to his chest, "A special kind of decisiveness."

"Then we should test it even more." Qin Hongzhu suddenly raised his head, the data flow in his eyes accelerated, "I can design a special evaluation plan. Chen Xiao will be responsible for a one-month virtual crisis simulation, and Chen Xiao will be responsible for..."

"You are really becoming more and more like a human." Chen Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Who taught you to be so stubborn?"

"you."

The projection replied without hesitation, "Part of my core intelligence comes from you."

Chen Lin was speechless for a while, and finally compromised after a while.

"Ok."

"But there are two conditions: first, the content of the test must be kept confidential, and they must not know it was my idea; second..."

He raised his finger. “If you fail the first assessment, you will be terminated immediately.”

"agree."

Qin Hongzhu's image brightened instantly. "I have designed a preliminary plan. Chen Xiao's test will combine artistic creation and crisis management, while Chen Xiao's will focus on decision-making in ecological crises..."

"Stop, stop, stop." Chen Lin waved his hand. "You have to handle the details yourself. Remember, you have to be strict."

He paused and said, "Don't let them off just because they are my children. This will only harm the Red Dragon Association."

The projection nodded slightly: "I will set a reasonable difficulty curve."

Chen Lin's eyes widened: "You... this is beyond the scope of work, right?"

“This is one of the things about advanced artificial intelligence.”

Chen Lin did not say anything else, but just looked out the window in silence. His son and daughter had already grown up to be able to take care of themselves. At first, he had thought of letting his eldest son Chen Xiao see if he had the ability to open the portal, but more than 20 years had passed and there had been no changes, so Chen Lin had long since given up the idea.

The youngest daughter Chen Xiao is now a workaholic like her mother Lin Yun. She used to have a very good relationship with Qin Hongzhu, the bionic man transformed by Zhulong. Although she has not developed physical weapons, the research she has conducted is also in the field of basic materials.

Neither of them is someone who can make Chen Lin worry-free.

He is already over 50 years old. Chen Lin is exhausted from sitting in this position. It is time for him to step down... (End of this chapter)
