I handed over to another world

Chapter 490 Reception
Chen Lin ended this formal meeting in great exhaustion. Basically all the things that needed to be done at the meeting were done. Chen Lin also assigned the thousands of people dispatched by the association to the responsible departments. In short, Anyun Base now fully supports Ding Yi's Star Gate experiment and is making way for his Star Gate experiment as much as possible.

"Mr. Chen, take a few days off."

The assistant had just finished collecting the signatures on the scene. Seeing Chen Lin sitting in the chair with a tired look on his face, he couldn't help but remind him.

"I would like to take a break, but the current situation is not the best time."

Chen Lin shook his head slightly and said to his assistant: "The first batch of personnel will arrive tomorrow morning. Later, a team of people dispatched by the association will come here in advance to take over the defense. At that time, I will need to confirm and sign in person..."

The assistant was also a young man. After hearing this, he shook his head helplessly and took the information to keep for record. The next work seemed to be very heavy, and he had already prepared himself mentally.

……

Early the next morning, Chen Lin and everyone from Anyun Base stood at the entrance of the hall, greeting wave after wave of people with tired but determined smiles on their faces.

This was the first day he received members from various associations, and the number of people had exceeded his expectations. The number of two thousand people made the originally spacious hall seem a little crowded.

His eyes quickly scanned the crowd, trying to remember everyone's face and name, but there were too many of them and his memory was beginning to blur.

Whenever someone extended his hand, he would shake it reflexively, repeating the welcome words he had said countless times.

"Welcome to Anyun Base. I am Chen Lin, the head of the base."

Although his voice was still loud, it was a little hoarse.

The noise in the crowd almost drowned out his voice. Under the guidance of the leaders, the crowd began to leave gradually. Chen Lin waved his sore arms and smiled at the people around him: "How is it, can you still hold on?"

"It's no problem, Mr. Chen. But can you... do this?"

Chen Lin nodded and said it was okay. He insisted on greeting the researchers in the hall. It was fine at first, but as time went on, Chen Lin felt his legs begin to weaken, his back ached slightly, and his arms even felt a little sore.

He can now easily control the magical power of his left and right hands, which allows him to shake hands with others at will. As the person in charge of Anyun Base, shaking hands is often a very important social etiquette, and Chen Lin must always pay attention to this.

Chen Lin felt that his physical strength was gradually exhausted. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. At this moment, he saw a familiar figure - it was Qi Huan, Professor Ding's former assistant.

Chen Lin remembered that Qi Huan was engaged in biological research. Logically, he should have nothing to do with the work here. Chen Lin was confused for a moment. Before he had time to ask what was going on, Qi Huan had already recognized him. He ran over here with excitement on his face and greeted Chen Lin.

Qi Huan saw Chen Lin's tired look and immediately realized what was going on: "Chen Lin, are you okay? You look very tired. The work here will be over soon. I heard that you have become the person in charge of the large base. Do you want to take a rest in advance?"

Chen Lin smiled slightly and was about to refuse, but the assistant behind him took the initiative to say, "It's okay, Mr. Chen. Just leave it to us."

Chen Lin wanted to say something, but he saw Qi Huan waving at him, smiling and saying, "It's okay to take a break. There are enough professionals at the base, and we don't have to do it ourselves."

"Then I'll take a short break, you guys take care of me here."

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen!"

Chen Lin followed Qi Huan and walked a few steps back. There was a rest area over there. Chen Lin sat on a chair and drank two sips of tea. Immediately, he felt that his hoarse throat became much smoother.

Qi Huan looked Chen Lin up and down, and a feeling of respect welled up in his heart. He knew very clearly what kind of person Chen Lin was.

When Chen Lin first arrived at the outpost base, he and Chen Lin had a special relationship. The two of them worked together and carried out missions everywhere. Chen Lin was considered a very responsible person, and even Qi Huang felt inferior to him in this respect.

At that time, Qi Huan actually knew that Chen Lin could open the portal. Among the several assistants around Professor Yu, he was the only one who knew this top-secret information. Until now, most people still don’t know how to open the portal, which is enough to show the association’s protection of Chen Lin’s identity.

"Old Chen, you are trying your best, aren't you?"

Qi Huan said to Chen Lin, "You are the head of a region, why do you have to personally go to the reception? Don't you have so many people in your base with nothing to do? Can't you just transfer two people over?"

Chen Lin smiled and explained to his old friend: "This is a question of attitude. These people are all elite talents from all over the association. I have to show my respect for them, right?"

Qi Huan clicked his tongue twice and said to Chen Lin, "You are obviously inexperienced. It is true that you need to pay attention to it, but you also need to see who pays attention to it and how to show it."

"As the head of a mainland base, it's not much different for you to personally receive the scientific research team in the lobby, but it's almost time to accept them. The importance of them is reflected in many aspects, such as arranging rooms, food, and working places for them. As the head of the base, these should be your strengths..."

Chen Lin really didn't expect Qi Huan to know all this so well. He had some new understanding of this old friend. While listening to Qi Huan talk about how to demonstrate his leadership ability in this situation, Chen Lin paid attention to the staff in the distance - the assistant and several staff members of Anyun base cooperated well, with clear division of labor. Some were responsible for welcoming, and some were responsible for answering questions. Their cooperation made the reception work orderly.

Chen Lin immediately felt that what Qi Huan said was absolutely true, and he was surprised that Qi Huan could master these things.

"How come you are so proficient in these things?"

Chen Lin asked, only to see Qi Huan chuckle.

"I didn't follow Professor Yu for nothing. I was able to be his assistant and was transferred to other positions with almost full marks. It was all because of my real talent and knowledge!"

Qi Huan glanced at the crowd in the distance. As time passed, the crowd began to decrease and the hall was no longer so crowded.

"Then again, aren't you originally a talent studying biology or virology? Ding Yi is working on some scientific research project like Stargate here, so why did you follow him?"

Chen Lin spoke to Qi Huan, who waved his hand and explained, "I changed my major. A few months ago, the association recruited various personnel for study. I did not sign up for my own subject at the time. I signed up for interstellar studies - this was the direction I liked at the beginning. Unfortunately, I was selected later and could not learn the knowledge points I wanted."

"I see!" Chen Lin suddenly realized, and he praised Qi Huan: "I really didn't expect that you could change your major at this time. This shows that you are very strong..."

Qi Huan immediately smiled and waved at Chen Lin: "Don't make fun of me, you should know what level I am. I came here purely as a soldier to fill in the position. The association is now conducting the second round of learning courses. If our group of people did not need to be transferred to normal work, I really would not want to come."

The staff member in the distance whispered something to the assistant, who immediately rushed over to Chen Lin. When he was not far away, he spoke to Chen Lin: "Mr. Chen, you should go back. The core scientific research team of the association needs you to come forward to formally arrange the next matters."

Chen Lin nodded and put down the teacup: "I have to go and get busy first. Let's meet again later when there is a chance, Brother Qi."

"Got it!"

Qi Huan also stood up and said to Chen Lin with a smile: "I will follow the main force too!"

……

The Anyun Base is actually located in a vast and tranquil mountainous area. What Chen Lin was satisfied with before was the superior environment of the Anyun Base. Now it is about to become the new home for the scientific research team.

The base buildings in the experimental area are arranged in an orderly manner. The modern laboratories and offices are in harmony with the surrounding natural environment. The sunlight shines through the blue sky into the green courtyard, adding a bit of vitality and vigor to this holy land of scientific research.

As vehicles loaded with scientific research equipment and talents slowly drove into the base, the air was filled with anticipation and excitement.

These scientific research teams are drawn from various departments of the association and are absolutely elite talents.

In the spacious and bright conference room in the experimental area inside the base, the core members of the scientific research team gathered together to discuss their respective research directions and plans, and exchange the latest scientific research results and technological advances.

Ding Yi also came out of his own private laboratory at this time. He greeted the crowd at the scene regardless of his disheveled appearance. A group of experts were quite in awe of Ding Yi. This man is now famous. Although he has no particularly useful scientific results, the theoretical books Ding Yi wrote before about portals have been proven to be all true.

Most of the phase portals currently developed by the association are based on the contents of the book written by Ding Yi.

After the short meeting, Chen Lin hurried back.

He briefly met with a group of core scientific researchers, and then signaled the staff to lead the core scientific research team to tour the entire base.

The staff will give this group of people a detailed introduction to the base's layout and facilities, including the most advanced laboratories, well-equipped conference rooms and comfortable living areas, so that these researchers will not have any concerns and the team members will also feel the base's strong strength and the importance it attaches to scientific research.

Chen Lin emphasized the support and protection for the scientific research team.

In front of Ding Yi, he promised everyone that Anyun Base will provide a full range of resources and services to ensure that every researcher can fully display their talents and potential here. He also encouraged team members to actively communicate and cooperate, jointly overcome scientific research problems, and contribute to the progress of mankind...

This was a bit old-fashioned, so Chen Lin didn't make a long speech. He just asked everyone to identify their respective accommodation rooms and experimental areas, and then he pulled Ding Yi aside.

"When will the reactor officially start operation? All the personnel are here."

Ding Yi nodded towards Chen Lin and said, "We can start tonight. The outer circle of the Stargate base over there has been completed. That thing itself is also an energy glutton, it can eat up as much as you want!"

"Hey...don't give me a chop!"

Chen Lin said to Ding Yi seriously, "I heard that this star gate is very dangerous. Once the experiment fails or an accident occurs, it will not be difficult to destroy the Anyun base. Is that true?"

"That's a completed Stargate, not a Stargate base!"

Ding Yi explained helplessly to Chen Lin: "Didn't I say it before? The origin star... we can only build the base on the planet. The gravity well and the main body of the star gate must be built in the universe, and by then we won't have enough people."

Chen Lin nodded and suddenly remembered something.

"Wait a minute, Old Ding,"

"Just how big is this Stargate base you keep talking about?"

Ding Yi was also slightly stunned, and then he said to Chen Lin: "This construction is not very large. I originally wanted to build a medium-sized base with a length of 3,000 meters in one go, but then I thought that if we build it here, we won't be able to transport it to outer space, or it will be too troublesome."

"So I fell back and built a primitive small-scale Stargate base of 640 meters."

"A stargate base of this size is suitable for small-scale transportation of personnel or materials. It can even be deployed on space stations, planetary surfaces, or smaller spaceships. It may be stronger than a phase portal, but its effect is still far better than that of a portal."

"More than 600 meters..."

Chen Lin murmured softly. The star gate base of several hundred meters was actually not small. Among all the portals he opened, the tallest and largest one was only a few hundred meters. Even a fictional monster like Godzilla was only about a hundred meters high. But when Ding Yi came up and built some wonder, it was five or six hundred meters high... There was really no way to compare them.

"This is already the smallest. If it's any smaller, we might as well build a phase portal!"

Ding Yi shouted at Chen Lin, "But there is one advantage of this thing. Now you can only open it this big. If you need it later, you can directly upgrade the entire star gate by modifying its base."

"That is to say, the current size of the Stargate base is more than 600 meters. In the future, it can be upgraded to thousands of meters, several thousand meters, or even tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of kilometers. As long as we have enough resources and capabilities to upgrade the base, it will be fine."

After hearing this, Chen Lin immediately clapped his hands and laughed: "This is not bad!"
