HUMAN RESOURCES SUMMARY
Operator Da Pan (ID name: Pan Yuan) is a member of the Hongshan Academy of Sciences (HAS). He claims to be a very well-traveled chef and trader. He has joined the Specialist Tech Division as an independent, with recommendations from Operator Chen Qianyu and a letter of authentication from HAS. We also respected his personal wishes and granted him partial authority levels for canteen access.
Da Pan provided an incredibly chaotic CV. His verifiable work experiences include: owner of hot pot eatery, LA-ME-DA (literal translation: Spicily Huge); tianshi at HAS; electrician; carpenter; machinist; and background extra in Heyi Quan: Zailin (literal translation: Fist of Combined Will: Revisited).
Two of his past experiences cannot be verified. The first was a brief stint of driving taxis at Simonch. We failed to find any commercial driving license or records for Da Pan in the said city. When I pointed out this finding, the Ursus' maw cracked into a 70-degree smile and he applied a rather powerful slap on my mechanical chassis. The second would be "friendly assists and support". Da Pan claims he part-timed as an ornamental burdenbeast stand-in for three days at La Fantoma. By the time I realized that I had been misled into an engrossing dialog about unlicensed taxi driving and ornamental burdenbeasts, we had already been talking for four hours — and I had neglected to ask Da Pan about the experiences that he should remember best: his time as a tianshi at HAS.
While verifying his experiences in HAS, Da Pan became visibly downcast and displeased. But he quickly resumed his smile and deflected the topic with a casual joke. Then he showed me a friendly group photo of him and other ornamental burdenbeasts. I could obviously tell that he was trying to avoid talking about his disagreeable past with other Tianshi, but this is not a negative consideration for Endfield. Since Da Pan is still affected by the Science Station incident, it proves that he remains, deep inside, a HAS tianshi who upholds a strong sense of principles, responsibilities, and duty.

DOCUMENT: Uncle Pan the Everchenjing
Uncle Pan the Everchenjing lives in Wuling and hes like the most warmest person i've ever seen. Hes black and white and his eyes look like grapes. His ears look like gold yuanbao and he looks very cool with his sunglasses.
Uncle Pan can transform and he's got all sorts of clothes like a big white shef apron or crew overalls. Sometimes he also wears a yellow plastic hat. Uncle Pan also has a hot pot shop and tolds us that we can have meals at his place if we miss home and if we got tired of hot pot he will make other delishus stuff like mantow buns, flashy fryd kidnees, or sweet sour fins. The best food made by Uncle Pan is the veeneger bokk choy and refryd meat and he wants to make them the chefs speshow.
But sometimes Uncle Pan plays pranks on us. He puts spisy saos in my lunch box but tells me its magic jam so i share the magic jam with my frenz and everyone got sosejj lips.
Uncle Pan takes care of the kids and he also helps other people. He can fix power meeters, do plumming and pipes, chop the bamboos. Cos Uncle Pan is so helpful to everyone, everyone also wants to help Uncle Pan. But Uncle Pan is reely powerfol and theres nothing we can help him with, so we gave him delishus fruits and sweets... and the landlord lowerd his hot pot shop rent. Peepo say that Uncle Pan is homeless cos his home eksploddeded so he has to spend money to liv in a frenz home.
One day i ask Uncle Pan why he made no money after working for many years. He told me he spent all the money on food but later i lerned that he spent all the money on the kids...
— Chen Qianyu
His passion and friendliness are infectious. People often start spilling their beans and sharing their stories within minutes after meeting him. But the reverse does not apply. Operator Da Pan rarely talks about his own story. Nevertheless, many still regard him as the "friendly HAS tianshi who really knows how to cook". A painful past may be a burden to bear. Being a listener with few words makes him a decent friend. However, being secretive and keeping to oneself are rarely good things.
My other concern is that after Da Pan arrived at Dijiang, many of our operators (and our Endministrator as well) began putting on significant amounts of weight...

DOCUMENT: List of Candidates for the Vanguard Scientist Award
Author: Luo Shiqiao
After integrating observations for the three dimensions of innovation, influence, and adaptability, I recommend Tianshi Pan Yuan as the recipient for this year's Vanguard Scientist award. His work so far accrued a total of twelve academic achievements and he has attained six sustainable development goals for HAS. Very few awardees from the last ten years have achievements on par with his. And Da Pan is not yet thirty.
Although I am his mentor, I can guarantee that my evaluations are completely fair and balanced. When Pan Yuan knocked on my door and described his wish to be on my project team, my first reaction was to turn him down. The young man had left a relatively poor impression with me back then. He played ping-pong with explosives, on fire. He also got several veteran (and well respected) Tianshi to perform tap dance on a digital poster of Creative Maolaguo Cuisine Lovers. He built several high-speed battleships from scraps, and attacked our subterranean cryostorage facility with his fleet. The entire building reeked of rotten fins for a month... Yes. I suppose these are minor misdemeanors that come naturally to the youths. HAS encourages all kinds of scientific exploration, and even I ended up in the emergency medical bay a few times back in my younger days.
Certain youths play pranks to get attention. Some of them do so to sate their immense curiosity about the world. Pan Yuan doesn't quite belong to either of these categories. He is ... too smart. I saw disinterested boredom in his eyes when he was caught doing these pranks. After becoming his mentor, I realized that he committed these actions because he could. To put it in other words, he wanted to prove that he was simply better than anyone else in HAS — even when it came to pulling off pranks on campus.
Joy comes from challenges. Take away the challenge and you deprive any opportunities for joy — and a joyless academic pursuit will never get far. A sculptor who spends every moment chipping away at stone would only leave a handful of works behind. Pan Yuan has proved to be most obstinate. This stone must be properly polished to reveal its true beauty. But only another slab of stone harder than him could hope to bring down his pride and chip away at his edges.
I told him, "There are several Tianshi who made significant achievements in the field of rift research. They would be better mentors than me..."
But Pan Yuan replied, "But there is a great mountain within me that must be conquered first. Your projects and research focus are the only things that match my goals."
At that moment, I saw confusion, pain, and maybe a subtle dash of cautious hope in his eyes. Maybe my judgment on his character was not entirely correct. Perhaps something changed him. As long as he is persistent, I have faith he will change for the better.
And if you must have a reason for not giving him the award ... there is the matter of his rather impulsive temperament. And also because he was cooking in the lab and deliberately mislabeled a tub of puffed rice as "Reducing Agent". Maybe he didn't want others to steal his food, but this action completely wrecked my first prototype!

After integrating observations for the three dimensions of innovation, influence, and adaptability, I recommend Tianshi Pan Yuan as the recipient for this year's Vanguard Scientist award. His work so far accrued a total of twelve academic achievements and he has attained six sustainable development goals for HAS. Very few awardees from the last ten years have achievements on par with his. And Da Pan is not yet thirty.

DOCUMENT: A funeral speech
It was an ordinary morning, like all the other mornings that HAS had received before. But when the sunlight poured into the office, my husband had already passed away in his dreams.
He committed his entire life to the Hongshan Academy of Sciences — Naturally there was a time when I hated it. Whenever I stepped into the corridors to deliver his meal, I felt only annoyance when I heard the all-knowing Tianshi debate each other. I didn't care if they were trying to get permanent tenure, jostling for higher positions, or really trying to get people fed. I didn't want to know why they were creating stacks of paper with no actual benefits to the environment. None of these mattered to me.
I didn't understand why they would neglect their own lives just so others could survive and live theirs. It felt as though "survival" was a canon rule of the Academy, or an abstract concept. Perhaps their entire philosophy, career, and even existence was just part of this obsession of theirs.
............
With my own hands I buried my daughter's dress at this public cemetery many years ago. She was one of the 113 who left us in the early days of the Wuling Science Station.
...My husband and I had not talked for years. When I learned that my darling girl's vital signs ceased, he was carrying out the consecutive voting process with the old Tianshi. He only called me after three days. I was in tears when I asked why we couldn't bring the children's remains back home. He only told me it was impossible. At that time, the only wish on my mind was to strap myself with explosives and take my husband and those old academicians to the grave — that is ... until two incredibly young Tianshi opposed the vote. One was Viceroy Zhuang, and the other was an Ursus. The latter made quite a scene at HAS and soon left Hongshan after submitting his resignation.
I thought the young lad, having expressed his disagreements in such a physical manner, wouldn't attend the funeral. But I saw him before everyone gathered here. He grew up and matured. He came quietly, and left just as quietly. He shared no words with anyone ... and left nothing but a jar of Mrs. Pepper.
And now with my hands I buried my husband. I still detest HAS for having devoured my entire family. Yet I know that he ... that child, and every young Tianshi standing here with us whom my late husband had mentored, you have nothing but love for the Academy.
At least he had flowers and his favorite hot sauce by his side when he left us.

"Dozens of hours had passed. Unfortunately, we have picked up no vital signs in the vicinity of the Very Large Rift. Since we have a unanimous consensus, we shall act upon the decision and cease all SAR operations."
"Objection! I'm not going to argue whose proposal it was and how it ended up this way! But at least have the common decency to bring our people out, dead or alive! How could we even face their families after this?! Zhuang Fangyi, don't you dare side with them!"
"Calm down and let me say something. Professor Huang... I believe Tianshi Pan is right. Giving up right now goes against the collective as well as individual spirit espoused by the HAS. I recommend continuing our SAR efforts."
"Zhuang, I couldn't believe you actually agreed with Tianshi Pan on something, but this isn't the moment or place... Listen to us. This isn't giving up. We simply couldn't get it done. As Tianshi, you should use the balance of reason and understand this is us weighing the living against the dead. Now, get back to your seats."
"Couldn't get it done?! Then think of something to get it done!"
"Not everyone is like you, Pan Yuan..."
"[Yanese expletive]."

ACKNOWLEDGMENT: It isn't an everyday thing when you can simply open the dorm room to converse with authors of the works you cited in your younger days. I know I helped solve a few problems here and there, but looking at the bigger picture, I actually received way more assistance in return...
"The paper... Argh. Don't flatter me, Endmin. I'll get really embarrassed. It's just based on the basic theories you came up with years ago. This is far from a breakthrough."
"..."
"It's kinda funny, really. I'm already forty plus, yet I'm still obsessed about climbing the highest mountain. There's a little panda deep within me... If I ever mentioned this to people in HAS, I would end up as joke material. They'd laugh and say how far Pan Yuan had fallen."
"..."
"Mountains would only get higher, so the highest peak is always beyond reach? Ohoho. I admire your confidence! But the more you say it, the greater my urge to challenge the hike. By the way, I've been looking up about your Automated Industry Complex and worked out a brand new tech. It's something you never wrote about..."
"..."
"I'm definitely not your match. I call this joint growth through competition! If you want me to be honest with you, it's because ... your AIC Factory is terrific. I like this tech. From the bottom of my heart. If only we had this tech back then... If I could get this AIC when I was twenty..."
