Chapter 4 The Nine Losers

After the second round of physical fitness limit tests were all over, everyone stayed quietly in the hall, waiting for the interviewer to call.

Now there are only about 2,000 people left in the hall, and usually there are only 200 people who can be summoned by the interviewer. After passing the interview, one hundred people will be selected from these 200 people, which will be the final adventure volunteer.

Choosing 200 out of two thousand is equivalent to choosing one of ten, which is still a very cruel competition.

Now the one who can determine the fate of these two thousand people is five interviewers. The results of the two thousand people have already come out. The current job of the five interviewers is to select the excellent ones from these two thousand test results and conduct the final interview.

Of course, the results of the two rounds of tests are just one of the important references. There are other factors that affect the final selection, such as major, interviewer's personal preference factors, etc.

The five interviewers were all in-service officers of the Federal Space Administration, two whites, two blacks, and one yellow. Each interviewer was responsible for selecting forty people for the interview.

In principle, there should be a certain proportion of women in the team of adventure volunteers, which is about one-third. Therefore, among the forty people selected by each interviewer, there are about twenty men and ten women.

The information of about two thousand candidates to be selected has been recorded in the optical brain database. Five interviewers stood in front of their respective optical brain screens and began to select interview candidates.

The data of more than 2,000 people waiting to be selected is very large. If you need to choose, you basically need to search through the conditions. The first search condition set by each interviewer is often the first round of physical fitness test score, with a total score of more than 90, and then look at the second round of extreme test scores, as well as other majors, specialties, and other factors.

With just this search condition, people with a score of less than 90 in the first round of physical fitness test will basically be eliminated. Imagine that you can't even appear in the interviewer's selection vision, so how can you be selected?

In practice, the search conditions of interviewers are often more stringent, and their search conditions often start with a total score of more than 95 points in the first round of physical fitness tests.

Candidates with a total score or above will generally be favored by the interviewer. If there are no other questions, such candidates will generally be selected first. If there are still quotas, they will be reduced and they will be selected again from search conditions of more than 90.

After a while of busyness, almost all the five interviewers have selected forty candidates to interview each.

"Angelia, haven't you done it yet?"

At this time, the other four interviewers had basically finished the selection work, and only one interviewer continued to browse the information of the candidates in front of the screen.

This is a beautiful female officer with a snow-white skin and a faint smile. She is also the only female among the five interviewers.

"Not yet. If you are done, you can start the interview first, don't wait for me." Angelia, the female interviewer who was still browsing the candidate information, shrugged at the other four colleagues and smiled slightly.

The other four interviewers did not say anything and walked towards their respective interview halls.

When an interviewer passed by Angelia, he glanced at the light-brain screen in front of her inadvertently. After seeing this, he was a little surprised and said, "Angelia, why do you think of these candidates with a total score of 80 in physical fitness test? I remember that those candidates with a total score of 90 or more in physical fitness test are enough for us to choose."

Angelia smiled faintly and said, "I know, but I think that since these candidates above 80 have entered the second round of physical limit test, they should be given a chance instead of abandoning them altogether, right?"

The interviewer disagreed, but didn't say much, and smiled and said, "Angelia, you are so kind. If someone is really chosen by you, I think he should be very grateful to you."

Angelia shook her head and said, "Don't say that, I just give them a fair chance to compete. In fact, the work of volunteers on this planet is also very dangerous. Even if you choose, it may be a blessing or a disaster."

The interviewer smiled and said, "That's what he said. OK, I won't disturb you anymore."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

I have to say that Jiang Ping’s luck this time has come.

It is very rare for serious interviewers like Angelia to be. In fact, she has selected thirty-nine interviewers, leaving only one place, intending to give candidates under 90s of physical fitness test a chance. Of course, if there is no special outstanding among them, she has to choose one of the candidates over 90s.

She browsed the information of these candidates almost one by one, and when she saw Jiang Ping's information, her eyes finally stopped.

It’s not because there is anything special about Jiang Ping’s information, everything looks ordinary and nothing special about it. It’s not because there is anything worth paying attention to in his test scores.

The first round of physical fitness test was 85 points, and this score could only be considered mediocre. Two physical fitness limit tests, 51 points in the endurance limit test, and 35 points in the body coordination flexibility limit test. Such scores are really ordinary, at least not enough to make people shine.

What made her eyes stay was a line of notes written in a very small and inconspicuous place below this person's information: This person participated in the re-examination of the expedition of volunteers in total, and none of them passed.

Seeing this line of words, for some reason, Angelia's heart trembled a little.

After participating nine times, he failed to pass once. Why did he insist on coming again? If it were someone else, he would have given up long ago. Besides, this job is not very safe, and it requires taking certain risks and may even pay the price of his life.

Maybe there are some difficulties in his family and urgently need that generous reward?

Angelia guessed in her heart. After her eyes were still for a while, her little hand reached over and pointed it lightly on the person's information on the screen. Jiang Ping had been included in the list of forty people she was about to interview.

A few faint smiles appeared on her face, and she decided to give this person a chance.

At this moment, Jiang Ping was standing in the waiting hall, and the hall broadcast had already started to call the name. The lucky one who clicked the name began to enter the interview hall next to him in the envious eyes of everyone.

Jiang Ping was a little excited at first, but as the cold and waveless sound continued to come on the radio, his heart continued to sink, becoming cold, and finally occupied by another disappointment.

I should have thought of this result for a long time. I thought my previous expectations were really ridiculous, Jiang Ping thought to himself.

He had been counting the number of people called by the radio. After the radio had already called 199 people and still had no name, his heart was sinking to the extreme and he was about to turn around and leave in disappointment. At this time, he heard the still cold voice of the radio coming: "No. 4932, Jiang Ping, please wait in the No. 4 Interview Hall, No. 4932, Jiang Ping, please wait in the No. 4 Interview Hall..."

The cold voice of the radio broadcast was broadcast twice, and Jiang Ping's steps were about to leave suddenly stopped. An incredible expression surged up. He lowered his head to check his number, which was indeed 4932! Of course, he was called Jiang Ping, and it turned out that all this was true! He actually entered the interviewer's vision and entered the third round of interviews!

A huge joy surged up, almost shouting out. This was so exciting that he was the last lucky one among the two hundred people!

Sure enough, just after the radio broadcast of Jiang Ping's name, there was no sound. Obviously, the entire interview list had been broadcast, and Jiang Ping was the last interviewer to be selected.

The crowds gathered in the hall began to dissipate one by one, and their depressed and lost expressions could be seen everywhere. Once upon a time, Jiang Ping was the same as them, but this time it was different.

At this time, Jiang Ping had already rushed towards the No. 4 interview hall as stated by the radio.

Outside the interview hall is a slightly larger hall. There are dozens of people standing or sitting inside at this moment, most of them are men and half are women, with different skin colors and different expressions.

These people are like him, all the interviewers who will be interviewed next. Compared to those who left outside, they are lucky, but they will have to undergo a cruel elimination next time. Only half of them will be able to stay, and the other half will eventually leave in disappointment, just like those who left outside the hall now.

After initial excitement, Jiang Ping has now completely calmed down. He kept secretly saying to himself: You must seize this rare opportunity, perform well, impress the interviewer, and finally pass the interview successfully and officially become an interstellar adventure volunteer!

This is his first time in an interview, so he knows nothing about the next interview situation and does not know what questions the interviewer will ask. It is not his turn to play yet. He has to prepare well at this time and speculate on what the interviewer may ask, and how should he answer the questions that the interviewer may ask.

"Please come in No. 1822, and the interviewer Captain Angelia will be interviewing you!"

A young lieutenant appeared at the door of a small house inside, glanced at the crowd in the hall, and shouted loudly.

As the words fell, a sturdy black man, two meters tall and strong, stood out from the crowd, grinned at the crowd, pretended to have a strange face, and walked into a room inside.
