Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 464: Another Name for the Security Department
Central Police Station, Zhou Quan had been here once before.

Coincidentally, Zhou Quan also dealt with a police officer who was derelict in his duty at that time, and the other party also belonged to the serious crime squad.

If Liu Jiehui had not previously cleaned up the police force, Zhou Quan would probably have suspected that there were problems with the entire Central District Serious Crime Unit from the top down.

On the first floor of the Central Police Station Building, Zhou Quan, together with Guan Wenzhan and Zhong Jinming, met with the administrative team led by Liu Baoqiang.

At this moment, the only people present at the scene were Zhou Quan and his brothers, as well as the staff on duty in the lobby of the Central Police Station.

There were also several senior officers from the Central Police Station wearing white shirts and carrying bauhinia flowers on their shoulders.

The highest-ranking officer, like Zhou Quan, wore a bauhinia flower and two four-pointed star flowers.

This person is none other than Chief Lam, the Central District Commander of the Hong Kong Island Region and Chief Superintendent of Police Lam Yin.

He was a little thin, with a pair of rimless glasses on his nose, and looked gentle and refined.

When the police officers from the Security Department's administrative group come to the lower police district to handle official business, the chief of the police district naturally cannot neglect them.

Especially after learning that Sir Quan, the head of the security department, was also coming, Lin Xian, the commander of the Central District, immediately put down what he was doing and went downstairs in person to wait for Sir Quan's arrival.

Even though there is no difference between Zhou Quan and Lin Xian in terms of police rank.

But the significance of the Police Security Department is unmatched by any other department.

Normally speaking, a district commander at the level of chief superintendent is better than the chief superintendent-level supervisors of many departments in the Tai Kwun police force.

After all, a police district commander at this level is fully qualified to handle case operations within his respective jurisdiction.

In contrast, the powers of many departments within the police force are basically limited due to the types of cases they are responsible for.

However, the situation of the security department is another matter.

The Security Department also has the authority to inquire about cases that each police district and department of the police force is qualified to handle.

The Security Department has an obligation to handle cases that are outside the purview of individual police districts and departments.

In a nutshell, look at all the cases that occurred in Hong Kong Island.

The only question is whether the security department wants to investigate or not. There is no question of whether the security department can investigate or not.

The relationship between the heads of other departments of the police force in Tai Kwun and the various police districts is one of mutual cooperation and collaboration.

But Zhou Quan, the big sir of the security department, came here to guide the work of the police districts below.

Even the assistant director-level commanders of the six major regions in Hong Kong Island have to give Sir Quan some face.

Such a vast power was acquired after the Security Department abolished the Political Department.

With the support of his elder brother Xu Sir, Zhou Quan achieved this result by handling one major case after another.

There were two main reasons why the police force established the Security Department.

One reason is to retain some of the responsibilities of the original Political Department and be responsible for some political tasks.

Secondly, because of the stance factor, the focus is on cultivating fresh blood that is loyal to the motherland.

Therefore, the Security Department has always been supervised by Sir Xu, the trusted leader of the motherland, and the three core officers are also staunch supporters of the motherland.

With the biggest boss in the police force in charge, and three core officers with outstanding abilities and means working together in perfect harmony below.

This enabled the Security Department to not only successfully complete various political tasks, but also actively participate in various external cases and eliminate the influence of foreigners within the police force.

It is also because of this that after Hong Kong officially returned to the embrace of the motherland, Sir Xu, the boss, still maintained the current special significance of the Security Department and did not impose any restrictions on the scope of authority.

Especially after Zhou Quan took over as the head of the Security Department and proposed to the top leaders of Hong Kong Island to implement the National Security Bill, the Security Department's status within the police force became even more transcendent.

Many grassroots police officers even jokingly call the Security Department a miniature police force in private.

Although the senior officers of the police force did not directly agree with this statement, they also did not refute it.

The officers who are able to enter the management level of the police force have at least no problems with their vision.

They knew very well that as long as the National Security Act was fully implemented, Zhou Quan would definitely enter the core management of the police force. The most terrifying thing was that Zhou Quan's momentum of promotion within the police force was far more fierce than this.

Just relying on this National Security Act, at least he won't have any difficulties before he becomes Deputy Commissioner of Police.

Even if he is competing for the top position in the police force, Zhou Quan will have a great advantage.

There is no way, this is the trend of the times.

The National Security Bill is so important that it is a bold stroke engraved in the entire laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

It is no exaggeration to say that his name will go down in history.

Therefore, as long as Zhou Quan does not make any principled mistakes, he will be invincible within the police force.

Coupled with the respect of Hong Kong Island and higher-level bosses, Zhou Quan became even more invulnerable.

Even if the future leaders of the core management of the police force will have some competitive relationship with Zhou Quan.

But now, at least it involves the competition for the position of the top police officer.

From the Deputy Commissioner of Police to the Assistant Commissioner, everyone wanted to be on good terms with Zhou Quan.

This is even more beyond doubt below the core management level of the police force.

As soon as they saw Sir Quan arriving, Central District Commander Lin Xian came to greet him with several senior officers from the Central Police Station.

"Welcome Sir Quan to our Central to give us guidance on our work."

Chief Superintendent Lin had a very bright smile on his face, and he took the initiative to extend his hands from a distance.

"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry to bother you at work!"

Never hit a smiling person. Even though Zhou Quan had some dissatisfaction with the senior management of the Central Police Station, he appeared to be very worldly-wise.

"Is Mr. Zeng upstairs today?"

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the senior police officers at the Central Police Station, Zhou Quan asked about Zeng Xiangrong's situation.

Although Sir Zeng is not the boss of Zhou Quan's family, he is not distant from Zhou Quan.

After all, his uncle Li Wenbin was once highly valued and supported by Sir Zeng.

Zhou Quan came to the Central Police Station again today, which was different from the last time he came there in the evening.

If Zeng Xiangrong worked in the Central Police Station, he should go and visit him.

What's more, Zhou Quan came here on behalf of the Security Department to hold the entire Central Police Station accountable.

The Central Police Station is the core of the Central District, which is the core of the Hong Kong Island Region.

Even though Zhou Quan is now performing the duties of the Security Department normally, it is better to say hello to Zeng Xiangrong.

After all, he and Zeng Xiangrong had a good relationship in the past, and using courtesy before force was considered giving Zeng Xiangrong enough face.

"Yes, yes, Sir, when he learned that you, Sir Quan, were coming over, he specially took time out to wait for you in the reception room upstairs!"

Chief Superintendent Lin is still unclear about Zhou Quan's purpose of coming, so he appears to be extremely enthusiastic.

Zeng Xiangrong is, after all, a big shot in the core management of the police force. Even though he welcomes Zhou Quan's arrival very much, it is impossible for him to go downstairs directly to greet Zhou Quan.

The fact that Zeng Xiangrong was able to take time out to wait for Zhou Quan's arrival was enough to show how much he valued Zhou Quan.

"Then what are you waiting for? We can't keep Mr. Zeng waiting for too long!"

The originally formal smile on his lips became a little more sincere, and Zhou Quan walked straight towards the elevator of the Central Police Station.

Lin Xian and other senior officials of the Central Police Station who were accompanying him also hurried to catch up with Zhou Quan, led by Lin Xian, the commander of the Central District.
