Let you change the Hongqi h9, not the Hongqi missile vehicle

"The current goal is to first defeat these four developing countries."

Xu Liang smiled calmly, although he didn't pay much attention to these matters.

But I had heard about it to some extent.

"So the situation is already this urgent? Then it certainly cannot be delayed."

Jiang Chen looked slightly surprised.

No wonder Liang Zhenshan looked so solemn when he spoke with him this time.

It seems we've reached the final stage, meaning within the next two weeks.

The final situation in the Northwest Theater will then be settled.

Let's wait and see how the situation develops.

Jiang Chen naturally trusted Liang Zhenshan's abilities.

But no matter how powerful he is, he is still just a mortal.

He will need help eventually, even if he doesn't ask.

Jiang Chen also needs to take precautions to prevent problems from arising in the first place.

Upon hearing Jiang Chen's instructions, Xu Liang looked troubled.

"Commander Jiang Chen, I understand your intention."

"But we are indeed short-staffed in our space city at the moment."

“Those people you recruited for us in the United States before.”

"Of these, only twenty-one met the requirements for scientific fields."

"The remaining hundred or so people were all eliminated, and a slightly larger number of soldiers were recruited from the military field."

"A total of thirty-nine people, but this is still a drop in the bucket."

"Based on our space city's extremely strict selection criteria."

"Recruiting more talent is extremely difficult."

Xu Liang smiled wryly, knowing all too well about this matter.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly glamorous appearance of the space city now.

In reality, the talent crisis has always existed.

Jiang Chen is now asking them to allocate additional manpower to form a reserve team.

We are ready to assist the Northwest region in responding to emergencies at any time.

This is indeed a considerable amount of pressure for Xu Liang.

After all, all the current work is focused on building space cities.

The overall progress is only 21 percent complete.

Fortunately, the construction was assisted by relevant technical experts and researchers from China.

They invested a great deal of manpower and resources.

Otherwise, it would be truly difficult to predict what the current situation would be like.

At least on its own, it is absolutely impossible for a space city to be built independently.

It's not just a space city.

It also includes the Kate Resource Zone and the Mars Resource Zone, two of the three major resource zones in the United States.

These all require a large number of people.

It's fair to say that every member of the Space City wishes they had an extra pair of hands to work with.

“I understand your difficulties; we are indeed short of talent.”

"But there's no other way right now, so just do your best to allocate some manpower for me."

"The talent standards may be relaxed appropriately in the future, but not now."

Jiang Chen sighed softly.

Since Battalion Commander Jiang Chen has already made such a statement...

Xu Liang could only nod slightly in agreement.

"Understood. I will do my best to arrange this matter. Please leave it to me."

In fact, the Space City has already held several special meetings.

The vote was on a proposed revision to the existing regulations concerning the space city.

The general consensus is that the overly stringent standards for the space city make talent selection difficult.

This is why the construction has been underway for two or three years.

The number of personnel is still not large enough.

This is especially true for scientific research talent.

At times like these, Jiang Chen would always step forward to explain his considerations.

I will explain to everyone why the space city is set to such high standards.

This silenced everyone.

However, with the successive launch of various projects.

The demand for talent is also increasing daily.

There's no time to worry about that now; Jiang Chen can only plan for the long term.

In the following days...

Jiang Chen continues to handle daily affairs in the Space City and frequently communicates with the senior officials of the Dragon Kingdom.

It coordinates the construction planning of the space city.

So far, the overall progress is going smoothly, and no one dares to disturb them.

After all, Jiang Chen's cooperation with the Dragon Kingdom is a true alliance of strengths.

Even the United States wouldn't dare to provoke them easily.

There's always a solution to everything, so Jiang Chen wasn't worried.

Late at night, Jiang Chen and Nong Huiyun slept in the same bed. The two lay quietly in bed, not being affectionate and intimate like ordinary couples, feeling that it was unnecessary.

After all, they each had important matters to attend to.

They were long past the age of indulging in romantic love.

Or perhaps, deep down they were never really interested in it.

"You look so worried all day. Have you encountered some problem? Is it difficult to solve?"

Nong Huiyun asked with concern.

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, a wry smile on his face.

"These are all old problems, the issue of talent. Our space city is severely lacking in professional talent. The existing talent in China is simply not enough, but we can't recruit from other countries. The current shortage is quite large."

In fact, Jiang Chen has cultivated quite a few talents in the country.

He frequently gives lectures in the country to keep people informed about the latest technological developments.

But understanding is one thing, mastering and applying it is another.

These matters are of utmost importance.

If Jiang Chen hadn't cultivated many talents in the country earlier, his current situation would be even more difficult.

Even gathering 10,000 people is a problem.

How could we have tens of thousands of researchers like we do now?

It is worth mentioning that Jiang Chen's requirements for researchers are not only strict in terms of identity verification.

This is just the basics; the most important thing is professional competence.

To put it bluntly, the researchers in the space city are top-notch anywhere on Earth.

He can be considered one of the most outstanding scientists.

It's easy to imagine how demanding the requirements are.

However, Jiang Chen could not lower his standards, after all, this was the current state of Space City, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Talent...that is indeed a tricky problem."

Nong Huiyun nodded slightly.

"Hey, my lucky star, help me come up with a plan on how to attract more talent."

"It seems that you are the only one I can count on now."

Jiang Chen grinned.

These words shocked Nong Huiyun, who stared at Jiang Chen in disbelief.

"Me? Why don't you just hand over the management of the entire space city to me?"

"Why don't you just be content being a gigolo?"

It's hard to believe that such words would come out of Jiang Chen's mouth; it's simply unbelievable.

She asked herself what she had done to deserve this.

Although I had indeed helped Jiang Chen solve a lot of troubles before, it was all by chance.

Nong Huiyun was competent in intelligence work, but knew nothing about other areas.

To put it bluntly, luck played a large part in my achieving my current status.

"Haha, I was just kidding, just chatting casually. There will always be a solution to this, don't be too nervous, just let nature take its course."

This is Jiang Chen's current thought.

There's nothing we can do; talented people are rare and hard to come by.

The only option is to cultivate more relevant talent within the country.

Is there any better way?

Of course not.

For now, we can only maintain the status quo.

……

Jiang Chen had forgotten something due to his busy schedule.

He had promised to take Liang Wanting and Li Yumeng on a trip for a few days, but due to too many matters to attend to at Space City, he had completely forgotten about it, which was truly regrettable. Soon, Jiang Chen found the two girls.

They are currently playing video games in their room, specifically a virtual 3D version.

The scene looked quite exciting.

Many lunch boxes were scattered around the bed.

It looks messy.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Chen was shocked. He could hardly believe that this was a girl's room, and that two girls were sharing the room.

What's most surprising is that this is the residence of two genius female scientists.

How could the room be so messy?
Anyone who sees it will be astonished.

They were engrossed in a shooting game at the moment.

Having a great time, they were completely unaware that Jiang Chen had come up in front of them because they were wearing 3D glasses.

"Hahaha, Liang Wanting, take this!"

"Wow, when did your marksmanship become so accurate?"

"Of course, I'm a naturally gifted player, this gun is incredibly powerful."

"Bang bang bang, this is so much fun, it's just as exciting as the real thing."

……

"Huh, what's going on? I bumped into a box, but the feeling is so real."

Suddenly, Liang Wanting froze. In her game screen, she was facing a box.

However, the texture of this box is so realistic that you can actually feel it to the touch, and it's not hard at all.

Instead, it carries a touch of softness.

Liang Wanting curiously took off her glasses.

"Oh, Jiang Chen!" Hearing this, Li Yumeng quickly took off her glasses.
Sure enough, they found Jiang Chen already standing in their room.

"They are two young ladies, can't the room be tidier? At least keep it clean and tidy. What kind of behavior is this?"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but complain.

"Tch, someone said they'd take us out to have fun, but what happened? It's ridiculous. They haven't shown up for days. What can we do besides play video games in our room?"

Li Yumeng was naturally very rude to Jiang Chen.

He replied directly with a sarcastic tone.

Liang Wanting also chimed in from the side.

"Moreover, someone personally guaranteed that we wouldn't need to work and could play however we wanted, but after only a few days, people are already complaining."

Jiang Chen was both amused and exasperated, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute it.

"Go ahead and play if you want, it's no big deal. But Space City has so many fun attractions, it's a real waste that you're all stuck here playing games."

In terms of entertainment facilities, Space City has reached the pinnacle.

It offers a wide variety of novel and fun activities; there's no game you can't play if you can't imagine it.

"Uh, we originally wanted to experience a space tour, it looks really interesting, but we're scared and don't dare to go. Jiang Chen, please take us, we'll feel safer with you by our side."

Li Yumeng quickly took over the conversation.

They certainly knew that Space City had many attractions to offer, and the staff had already given them a detailed introduction to the overall layout of Space City.

You can find whatever you want to play anytime.

However, a situation made Liang Wanting and Li Yumeng quite embarrassed.

Those are other tourists.
They all come here to relax and have fun after get off work.

To put it bluntly, Liang Wanting and Li Yumeng are like two unemployed people.

They play all day long.

It has never stopped.

When you're hungry, go eat and enjoy the delicious food.

When I'm sleepy, I just lie down and go to sleep.

Wake up and continue having fun.

Such days are indeed pleasant.

But it was indeed quite embarrassing.

Everyone else has a proper job, but they don't.

They now realize that being unemployed in the space city isn't such a good thing after all.

Those who idle away their days are no different from useless people.

Everyone else was working hard, which made them stand out.

So after playing for a day or two, they lost interest.

Originally, the plan was to attempt a short-distance space voyage.

Enjoying the scenery of outer space is a good option.

But with Jiang Chen not around, they didn't dare to try anything.

I had no choice but to stay in my room and play video games.

To be honest, it was really addictive at first.

At least they are in pairs, so they won't feel lonely.

Then Jiang Chen appeared.

"Hehe, a space tour? I haven't been to one in a long time. Okay, I'll take you there after I finish what I'm doing."

Jiang Chen smiled and nodded in agreement.

This small request is naturally not a problem.

"Wait, are you going to get busy again?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yumeng immediately became alert.

Jiang Chen's so-called handling of affairs was by no means a simple matter.

By the time he's truly finished with his work, it'll probably be ages before he's done.

"Don't worry, I won't run away. You guys tidy up the room first, oh my god, it's so annoying. I'll go out and wait for you, wash up and clean the room, then come with me. Hurry up, don't keep me waiting too long, I'm pressed for time."

Jiang Chen urged repeatedly.

Hearing Jiang Chen's urging, they understood that there might really be something important, so they naturally dared not delay.

Get up and tidy up quickly.

Although the game is indeed fun, playing it all day long will ruin your health.

Especially for Liang Wanting, who possesses such talent, she must not let it go to waste.

Although he had vowed back in Southeast State that he would not assist Jiang Chen with any work or engage in scientific research again.

But after arriving at Space City, Liang Wanting's attitude changed instantly.

The research atmosphere here is fantastic.

And everyone was very friendly.

It is indeed very different from that place in the United States.

She has to admit that.

Moreover, I won't be ostracized here.

Jiang Chen was also there to oversee things from behind.

Who dares to bully me?

It is fair to say that this is indeed an ideal place for scientific research.

At that moment, Jiang Chen was waiting outside the door.

The two girls frantically tidied up for half an hour before finally getting everything ready.

After quickly tidying up her appearance, she left the room.

At this moment, Jiang Chen was standing outside the door examining the virtual monitor in his hand, seemingly looking at something.

Noticing the two women approaching, Jiang Chen greeted them:
"Come with me, I'll introduce you to some people. If Liang Wanting is interested in working there in the future..."

"That place is perfect for you, I guarantee it. Of course, if you don't want to work, that's fine too. You can find something to do to pass the time and have fun whenever you want."

After all, they've only been here a few days.

Moreover, during this period of time, Jiang Chen

You need to take care of affairs in the Northwest region.

As for Liang Wanting, she had only recently experienced a setback.

Jiang Chen led the two girls into the research institute.

Actually, it doesn't matter whether Li Yumeng comes or not.

After all, her work is still primarily focused on Southeast Asia.

The main purpose of this visit was to allow Liang Wanting to get to know Li Xintong and Su Qingyu.

In other words, Liang Wanting will be working with these two experienced "seniors" in this research institute from now on.

Although she was unwilling at the moment, Jiang Chen did not intend to force her.

There's no need to rush things at this stage.

Let Liang Wanting relax and adjust for a while first.

After she and her family became familiar with the environment of the space city.

They will naturally devote themselves to scientific research.

Whether she wants it or not, it will be over by then.

Jiang Chen would always arrange for her to participate.

If Jiang Chen could understand Liang Wanting's true thoughts at this moment, he would be very gratified.

After all, Liang Wanting really wanted to find a suitable job.

Those stubborn words she had spoken to Jiang Chen earlier. (End of Chapter)
