Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 417 Promotion! Reward! Achievement!

The core management of the police force acted quickly and made major adjustments to the chief superintendent level the day before, and reported the list to Mr. Dong that afternoon.

The next day, the Hong Kong government published the announcement in the Gazette and the official warrant was also sent to the police headquarters.

At ten o'clock in the morning, an all-officer-level meeting was held in the auditorium on the side of the Police Building.

At the same time, this is also the first commendation ceremony for police officers since the return of Hong Kong Island.

The meeting not only included the presentation of the Commissioner of Police’s Commendation Letter, but also the very rare Chief Executive’s Commendation Letter.

Although this meeting was held within the police force, the person sitting at the top of the podium was not the top officer of the police force, Sir Xu.

As two Chief Executive's Commendations will be presented today, Mr Tung personally attended the plenary meeting held inside the Police Force's Tai Kwun.

With Mr. Dong’s opening speech, the meeting slowly began.

Mr. Dong reviewed the achievements of the police force before its return, as well as the struggle between Chinese police officers and foreign forces.

Afterwards, the biggest boss in the entire Hong Kong Island continued to look forward to the future of the police force and expressed the SAR government’s high hopes for the police force.

Mr. Dong's speech was not lengthy and he got to the point in just five minutes.

Sir Xu, the top officer of the police force, took over Mr. Dong's topic and announced the adjustments and appointments of the police force's management.

Although it is called the management of the police force, in fact, there has been no change in the bigwigs of the core management at the top.

Today's meeting of all police officers in Tai Kwun was mainly to make adjustments to the rank of Chief Superintendent.

The white-haired chief superintendents who are still in the police force and all those whose positions are unclear.

Those who are willing to leave the police force have officially entered the retirement stage.

Take a pension corresponding to your rank and years of service, and those who should leave should leave.

Those who are willing to continue serving within the police force are transferred to some unimportant marginal departments.

The chief superintendent, who has a white origin but is loyal to the police force and supports Hong Kong's return to the motherland, will be transferred to a lower-level police district.

Served as commander of some small police districts, or even as commander of the water police district.

This resettlement result has both advantages and disadvantages for them.

It will neither affect the overall structural trend of the entire police force, nor will it completely exclude them from the police force, but still give them hope for continued promotion.

Of course, Lu Minghua's transfer is a very rare case within the police force, and it can even be said to be unique.

After the documents on the transfer and retirement of these chief superintendents are announced, the next step is naturally to fill the vacant positions.

Zhou Quan was promoted to head of the security department, and Liu Jiehui was appointed to the personnel department. These appointments were officially announced at the all-police officer meeting in Tai Kwun.

Starting from today, the police force has completely entered a period where Chinese police officers are in control of the overall situation.

The personnel adjustment phase is over, and the honorary awards phase follows.

The first recipient to appear was naturally the current top cop in the police force, Mr. Xu.

The police officer was wearing a clean white police shirt uniform and he was not wearing any insignia from the Governor's Office period.

The new police ranks, the Bauhinia district emblem, the four-pointed star, and the crossed batons on the shoulders shine brightly.

The place where the red chicken rope should have been hung on Sir Xu’s chest is now empty.

Not only that, the flower chicken rope and black chicken rope were also missing.

The tradition of police officers wearing silver chicken ropes originated from the Governor's Office period.

It is specially used to hang a silver police whistle, also known as the silver chicken head.

With the changes of the times, police whistles have gradually been removed from police equipment.

But the chicken rope for hanging the police whistle has been passed down as a kind of honor.

This kind of honor within the police force is divided into three levels.

Ordinary police officers will be issued a black chicken rope after graduating from the police academy.

Among them, outstanding police officers are eligible to combine the black chicken rope and the silver chicken head for decoration, which is the so-called Silver Flute Award.

Above the black chicken rope is a flower chicken rope woven in black, red and yellow. Its full name is the Commissioner of Police's Commendation Certificate, which is awarded by the top police officer to police officers with outstanding performance.

As for the final red chicken rope, its full name is the Chief Executive’s Commendation Certificate, which is approved and awarded personally by the Chief Executive of Hong Kong Island.

It is specifically used to award public servants and members of the disciplined forces who have performed outstandingly throughout Hong Kong but have slightly failed to meet the requirements for the Medal of Honor.

Among all the people present, only two people were qualified to wear the red chicken rope, namely the top police officer and Zhou Quan.

The red chicken ropes they both wore were made by the last white governor of Hong Kong before the return of Hong Kong Island.

However, at that time, Chris Patten had to approve it only because of the growing influence of Chinese in the police force.

Therefore, no award ceremony was held, and the red chicken rope was simply and hastily delivered to Yi Ge and Zhou Quan. After all, it was an honor awarded by the white governor of Hong Kong, and the police force has now entered a new era.

So when Brother Yi attended the meeting today, he did not wear the red chicken rope.

It's not just the top brother Xu Sir, Zhou Quan's chest is also empty now.

Today, the tradition of the Chief Executive's Commendation Letter has been preserved by Mr. Tung.

Within the police force, Yi Ge and Zhou Quan once again received this commendation.

In fact, the honors that Yi Ge can receive are more than this. He is fully qualified to be awarded medals.

Hong Kong Island’s honors system has also been passed down and preserved.

However, the level of honor and the style of the medal still need more detailed discussion.

Therefore, for now, Sir Xu, the top police officer, can only get the red chicken rope.

Once the details of the awarding of honors are thoroughly confirmed, Sir Xu will definitely be among the first batch of medals of honor awarded after Hong Kong's return to China.

Mr. Dong personally put a brand new red chicken rope on Sir Xu's chest.

He encouraged Sir Xu a little, and then read out Zhou Quan's name.

"Next, let us welcome the new Chief Superintendent Zhou Quan, the second recipient of the Chief Executive's Commendation in the police force since the return of Hong Kong Island."

Facing the gazes of all the police officers in the museum, Zhou Quan held his head high, chest puffed out, and walked to the podium with strong and powerful steps, full of confidence.

Just like he did to Sir Xu just now, Mr. Dong also personally put the bright red chicken rope on Zhou Quan's chest.

"Mr. Zhou, the police force has entered a new era. I look forward to your more outstanding performance."

Patting Zhou Quan's shoulder affectionately, Mr. Dong looked very friendly and amiable.

"Yes, sir!"

Stamping his feet, standing at attention, and raising his hands to salute, Zhou Quan responded with a firm look and shouted: "I will abide by the belief of loyalty and courage, and serve Hong Kong Island wholeheartedly!"

Hearing this, Mr. Dong's eyes lit up.

"Loyalty and courage! Serving Hong Kong Island! Very good beliefs!"

Mr. Dong did not hide his admiration for Zhou Quan at all, and he even turned his gaze to the top police officer sitting next to him.

"Sir Xu, this sentence can be used as a propaganda slogan for the police force as it enters a new era!"

How could the boss have any objection to the proposal?

What's more, he also agreed with Zhou Quan's slogan.

The police force’s public relations department will be responsible for the promotional slogans.

The most important thing at the moment is to continue commending police officers.

Compared to the only two letters of commendation from the Chief Executive, the number of letters of commendation from the Commissioner of Police is very large.

All the commissioner-level police officers of the Security Department, together with the commissioner-level police officers of other departments and the subordinate police districts, a total of more than 30 people received commendations.

This is because the Hong Kong Police Force has just entered a new era, otherwise only a dozen or so flower chicken ropes would be awarded each year at most.

The reward session for other brothers was in full swing, but Zhou Quan, who had returned to his seat, quietly entered a trance-like state.

Just when his appointment was officially issued, a long-lost clear and pleasant voice echoed in his mind.

[Ding! Detected that the player has been promoted to Chief Superintendent. Congratulations on receiving the achievement reward Explosive Maniac! ]

After he put on the new red chicken rope, the voice appeared again.

[Ding! It was detected that the player has won the first Chief Executive's commendation certificate since his return. Congratulations on receiving the achievement reward Driving Mastery! ]

After three and a half years, the favor of the earth's will once again bestowed upon Zhou Quan, and it was another double yolk egg.

The achievement reward of being promoted to Chief Superintendent was completely within Zhou Quan's expectations.

After all, he is the most beloved and only beloved one of the Earth's will.

However, the achievement reward of the red chicken rope obviously surprised Zhou Quan.

Achievement rewards will not be triggered easily, and will not be triggered repeatedly. This is something Zhou Quan has already known for a long time.

But after thinking about it, Zhou Quan could understand it.

How can the gold content of the red chicken rope awarded by the white Governor of Hong Kong compare to the one worn by Mr. Dong himself, which is one of the only two red chicken ropes in the police force after the return of Hong Kong Island?
In the final analysis, the nation behind Zhou power, which has been passed down for five thousand years, is the real protagonist on the earth's stage.

Compared to those barbarians like the foreigners, the will of the earth favors that nation more, this is beyond doubt.

With gratitude for the will of the Earth, Zhou Quan quietly experienced the strengthening of his achievement reward.
