Chapter 462: Chapter 460: Talent Selection Plan

The air was silent for a while, apart from Ms. Tasia, there were also two interns taking notes, all of them lost in thought.

These two knew that Mr. Zhang Yuan was a Legendary Level character in the Virtual World, ranking first among all returnees, and a former Kunlun Mountain Captain. Their minds were filled with complex emotions. They even imagined the cruel realities they might face after their own deaths, causing them to shudder involuntarily.

Zhang Yuan quickly controlled his emotions, "On the other hand, if everyone is naive and full of ideals, it can actually help the development of civilization to some extent. However, when they grow old and enter the Virtual World, they are easily led astray by various temptations. Human civilization is not as simple as one imagines."

"These setbacks in education need to be intensified."

In fact, this series of issues had been discovered by scholars long ago, and had been raised many times.

This trend of thought tends to arise during stages of social prosperity, which is commonly referred to as a "leftist" inclination. Essentially, it’s nothing more than ideological naivety, lacking a deep understanding of human nature itself.

If public opinion sways the higher echelons’ thinking, making their external approaches softer, humans could potentially be disadvantaged in international contests and even face a series of internal risks.

This is something to be vigilant about.

Of course, for now, it’s only at a stage where vigilance is warranted, it has not yet become a societal phenomenon. From identifying problems to solving them, a series of complex political measures are needed.

"Your thoughts are not without reason. I will report your ideas upward. The ideology of all humanity is a key research topic in New Civilization History, there’s an in-depth tracking investigation, perhaps you could visit the person in charge, Mr. Liu..."

Mr. Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "It’s sufficient that you are aware of this matter; let professionals handle the professional questions."

After a while, Ms. Tasia finally asked the next question, "In various Virtual Worlds, we’ve discovered many extraordinarily talented individuals. You’ve experienced this as well. What is your opinion on the plan to introduce talent from Virtual Worlds?"

Introduce talent?

Zhang Yuan was momentarily startled.

Yes, the quantum consciousness of humans in Virtual Worlds can be transferred to the real world, meaning they can be "resurrected" in reality.

Ms. Tasia explained, "Mr. Zhang Yuan, we actually have no aversion to returnees like yourself, carefully selected. After all, everyone will go through this Transcendent program in the future and hopes to stand out. So we wouldn’t dislike our future selves."

"But regarding the native-born geniuses of the Virtual World, who have not experienced the cultural immersion of New Human Civilization, what do you think?"

"Could this type of talent be utilized? You have personally experienced these worlds and have encountered many humans across various Virtual Worlds, understanding them more deeply."

Zhang Yuan felt a slight stir in his heart, then quickly remembered that in every world, he had many like-minded companions.

Some of them had talents and ambitions not inferior to his own.

To select talents from these individuals?

"..."

It’s complicated.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yuan replied, "I think we need to categorize and consider carefully. Talents from worlds similar to ours, particularly those from scientific worlds, are more likely to integrate into our world. I have met many university professors with a pure desire for research and full of innovative ideas. They don’t need a salary or medals; they simply love to research. Such talent is indeed a good choice."

"As for the Mystical World and Magic World, there’s no great need. What use is a cultivation genius anyway?"

Everyone in the room laughed.

"However, we could give the talented individuals from these worlds the opportunity to reincarnate into the technological world, although their ideologies would need to be reshaped. First and foremost, their values must be unified..."

...

After coming out of the Unreal Laboratory of Psychological Research, Zhang Yuan gently exhaled, noting that the inclusivity of this era far surpassed that of any previous one.

Technology was experiencing a massive boom; new things were emerging every day, causing people’s thoughts to be very avant-garde and even more radical than in the past.

Some even believed that bringing in some exceptional Alien scientists, incorporating a group of Aliens into our civilization, would be a good choice. Scientists born in different cultural environments often think quite differently.

Such ideas were already a demonstration of a soaring civilizational self-confidence.

Of course, for the human upper echelon, accepting Aliens with completely different ideological systems was less desirable than embracing the same humans from Virtual Space...

Thus, the conversation that Tasia and Zhang Yuan just had arose. Everything about the Virtual World needed to be handled with care; in simple terms, it was about being cautious with oneself.

On another note, as the management systems of Artificial Intelligence became more standardized, many people were not keen on pursuing power. With abundant resources and a lack of population, people did not mind an additional person in society to share these resources.

Moreover, the majority of resource allocations were managed autonomously by Artificial Intelligence. Without violating the law, officials didn’t even have the capacity to overstep and interfere in people’s normal lives. Things like AI judges had essentially replaced human grassroots judges, with only the high-level judges still being human.

"Old Zhao!" Zhang Yuan waved his hand and called out when he saw Zhao Qingfeng waiting outside. He smiled and asked, "Are you also joining the diplomatic team?"

"Yes, I was born in a great era!" Zhao Qingfeng responded with a happy expression. He sighed, "Throughout this journey, we’ve encountered various Alien Civilizations; it’s a pity that I had left this world by then and missed experiencing it... However, I did catch up in time for the grand finale."

"Are you in charge of superconductivity and electromagnetism?" Zhang Yuan asked.

"Yes, and you?"

"Spaceship engines."

"That’s a big deal!"

Zhao Qingfeng was now a high-voltage power engineer.

Electricity can be easily converted to electromagnetic force, one of the Universe’s Four Basic Forces. To date, humans have still not found a replacement for electric energy.

In the foreseeable future, they still won’t.

It’s difficult for humans to find something like electricity that can easily be transformed into one of the Four Basic Forces. If there truly exists a phenomenon in a low-energy state that can transform strength into strong interaction or gravity, then undoubtedly, the whole industrial system would undergo drastic changes.

Zhang Yuan seemed to recall something: "Oh, right, I just made some suggestions to Ms. Tasia, and you might become the idol spokesperson for the returnees from the Virtual World... because you draw comics and have many fans."

"What... idol spokesperson?" Zhao Qingfeng didn’t understand at first. When he figured out what Zhang Yuan meant, he exclaimed in disbelief.
