Chapter 1170: End of term, personnel selection

Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, several months passed.

Taro finally got his exclusive song as he wished. Not only that, there were also exclusive songs for the six Ultra Brothers and exclusive songs for Ultra Father and Ultra Mother.

Of course, Gu Chen did not forget the songs of the ZAT team. He also copied some music from the "Ultraman Taro" TV series and held a concert in the name of Ling Yu to announce the release of the new songs.

Taro and the ZAT team were extremely satisfied with this and they were all smiling as they left.

At the same time, the ZAT team was disbanded, and the Earth Defense Force's structure began a new round of reorganization and upgrading.

Compared with the past, the biggest change is that the right to appoint and dismiss the next Earth Defense Force elite team has returned to Gu Chen's hands, and people from other countries or regions are no longer needed to be responsible for this matter.

"Okay, this is the situation, so do you choose to stay and continue, or choose to transfer to other positions?"

Inside the ZAT team's headquarters base, Gu Chen looked at all the members of the ZAT team standing in a row in front of him and asked.

Upon hearing this, everyone on the ZAT team looked at each other. For a moment, no one spoke first. I don't know if it was because Shi Xinyu was standing next to Gu Chen.

"You don't have to answer right away, just give me an answer within the next few days. At the same time, don't feel any psychological burden, don't think that quitting the frontline combat team is a shameful thing, and don't think that this is an act of desertion."

"After all, everyone has the right to choose their own path in life. It doesn't mean that you have to fight in the first-line team until you grow old. And it is human nature to use the experience of the ZAT team as a springboard to obtain a higher position. I can understand it."

Seeing that no one spoke at the first time, Gu Chen glanced at Shi Xinyu who had a blank expression on his face beside him, and then continued to speak.

"Advisor, I have made up my mind. At my age, it is no longer appropriate for me to continue to stay in the frontline combat team, so I apply to be transferred to other positions and continue to shine."

It seemed that Gu Chen's words had worked, and Asahina Yutaro was the first to stand up and speak.

"Okay, so what are your intentions for the new position?"

Gu Chen nodded and asked.

“Yes, for the new position, I hope…”

Asahina Yuutarou nodded and said which position he wanted to take up next.

Upon hearing this, Shi Xinyu made notes on the document and did not express any opinion.

"Advisor, I've made up my mind. From a genetic perspective, it's too difficult for me to control my diet. In order not to hold you back, I also want to apply for a transfer to another position."

With Asahina Yuutarou taking the lead, Araki Shuhei immediately stood up, sticking out his round belly and grinning.

"Sure. Please tell Assistant Officer Shi what the requirements are for your new position."

Gu Chen nodded and asked Huang Yuanxiu to talk to Shi Xinyu.

But this time, although Shi Xinyu remained silent, his sharp gaze still made Huang Yuanxiu feel a little pressured.

In the end, Shuhei Aragaki still gritted his teeth and left his requests or intentions for the new position with Shi Xinyu, then returned to the team with a wry smile.

"Sorry, consultant. I've also applied to be transferred to another position. I want to try my best in the scientific research department."

Immediately afterwards, Tetsuya Kitajima also stood up and spoke.

"There's nothing to be sorry about. Just work hard in the research department. I'll ask Kaji to look after you."

Gu Chen patted Kitajima Tetsuya on the shoulder and encouraged him.

"Advisor, I also..."

Immediately afterwards, Tadao Minamihara also applied to be transferred from the front-line team. This was mainly because he was about to get married and he made this decision out of consideration for not wanting to worry his family.

In this regard, Gu Chen expressed his full understanding.

"Counselor, I want to stay!"

However, when it came to Jiro Nishida, he received a different answer.

"And me, I'm willing to stay too."

Izumi Moriyama also followed suit and expressed his thoughts.

As for whether she chose to stay because she really loved this job or had some other ideas, Gu Chen didn't know.

But since they both chose to stay, let them stay. It happens that their business capabilities are still quite good.

As a result, among the ZAT team, except for Higashi Kotaro and Kirisaki who left the team, only Nishida Jiro and Moriyama Izumi chose to stay in the front-line team and continue to participate in future battles with monsters or aliens.

At this point, the follow-up arrangements for the ZAT team have come to an end.

Gu Chenye and Shi Xinyu left the operations room, leaving the ZAT team to stand guard for the last time.

"What's your next itinerary?"

After leaving the operations room, Gu Chen walked in front and asked Shi Xinyu.

"If you want, we can immediately start recruiting personnel for the next frontline combat team."

Shi Xinyu looked at Gu Chen's schedule and replied.

"Okay, let's do it."

Hearing this, Gu Chen nodded and went back to his office, waiting for the applicant to arrive.

Gu Chen knew without thinking that in addition to the new faces he didn't know, there would definitely be some familiar faces applying for the job.

Apart from anything else, there are people in the MAT team and the TAC team who are still obsessed with being active on the front line.

Moreover, they are still young, their physical functions are still at their peak, and they are full of passion to achieve success. They will definitely come back if they have the chance.

However, the arrival of the first applicant was beyond Gu Chen's expectations.

"Knock knock knock..."

"report!"

There was a knock on the door and the voice of the first applicant was heard from outside.

Hearing this, Gu Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling that the voice was inexplicably familiar.

"Please come in."

Then he spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, the office door was opened from the outside, and a young man about the same age as Jiro Nishida walked in.

"Staff Officer Gu Chen, Xingye Yong is here to report!"

The person who came was none other than Isamu Hoshino who had not appeared in a long time.

Gu Chen hadn't seen him for a long time. He remembered him as a teenager, but he never expected that when they met again, he had grown into a big man.

"Xingye?! It's you. I was wondering why your voice sounded so familiar. Did you switch from the International Science Organization to work here?"

Gu Chen stood up from his seat with some surprise, walked to Xingye Yong, looked him up and down, and then started joking.

"Hehehe, the Special Scientific Investigation Team is gone, so I have no choice but to come to you, the consultant, and ask you to take me in."

Even though they haven't seen each other for a long time, Xingye Yong still behaves like a child in front of Gu Chen, and starts to act coquettishly with a shameless face.

"Okay, okay, now that you're here, you can't leave even if you want to. From now on, you'll just have to work for me, hahahaha."

Gu Chen smiled, put his arm around Hoshino Yong's shoulders and went to the reception area in the office.

After sitting down on the sofa, he started chatting with Hoshino Isamu after a long time.

This conversation took up most of the day, so much so that the recruitment of the next front-line combat team had to be postponed.

As applicants arrived one after another, Gu Chen also saw many familiar faces among them.

For example, Takashi Ueno, who was supposed to join the ZAT team, could only interview for the next front-line combat team because Jiro Nishida was not transferred.

In addition to him, Minami Takeshi, Ueno Ippei, Yamanaka Ichiro and others also appeared one after another.

At the same time, former MAC team members Akio Kuroda, Ichiro Aoshima, Kiyohiko Akaishi and others also appeared one after another.

However, Gu Chen did not allow all the original MAC team members to pass the interview at once. Instead, he asked them to go back and wait for notification. He had to recall their performance in the original plot, and then consider allowing those who should pass the interview.

In addition to these personnel appointments and dismissals, Shi Xinyu's promotion to staff officer is approaching. It seems that he has to find time to look for assistant roles around him, otherwise he will be busy in the future.
