Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 489: Old subordinate takes up a new post

The adjustments to the Criminal Operations Division and the Internal Investigation Division were simple, except that Gong Jiapei and the team he commanded were incorporated into the newly established Liaison Affairs Division.

The responsibilities of the other groups remained unchanged, and the original organization remained basically the same, with only the ranks of a few personnel changing.

Overall, Guan Wenzhan's scope of authority has been narrowed slightly.

The original four groups in charge of command have been reduced to three groups now.

The issue that really needs to be carefully studied is the newly established Liaison Affairs Section of the Security Department.

Currently, there are only two subordinate groups in the Liaison Affairs Section, Gong Jiapei and Duan Xiangren and their brothers.

The commander of the entire liaison affairs department still needs to be appointed by Zhou Quan himself.

"We will now proceed to the second topic of the meeting, which is the reading of the appointment documents of the core management of the police force."

Zhou Quan took the red-headed document in front of him very solemnly and stood up slowly while speaking.

The next moment, all the police officers present stood up in unison, following the boss’ lead, reflecting the importance that the core management of the police force attached to the official document.

"After discussion by the core management of the police force, the former commander of the Security Wing's Operations Group 2, Lok Tan-nien, has been promoted to commander of the Security Wing's Liaison Division."

Zhou Quan's gaze paused on Luo Danian for a few breaths, and he read out the appointment documents of the core management of the police force with a warm smile.

"The police rank level is promoted from superintendent to senior superintendent, and the promotion appointment document is reported to the Hong Kong government for publication in the Gazette."

The top boss gave Zhou Quan enough trust, and the newly-appointed position of department commander of the Security Department was retained for promotion within the Security Department.

Looking at all the constitutional commissioner-level police officers under his command, Luo Danian is undoubtedly the undisputed candidate.

When the police force returned for major adjustments, if it weren't for Zhou Quan's care and support for Brother Guan from beginning to end, Luo Danian would actually be more suitable for the position of head of the administrative team.

Of course, this does not mean that Guan Wenzhan’s ability is inferior to Luo Danian.

In fact, each of Zhou Quan's four trusted generals who were promoted with him is qualified and capable of taking on higher-level positions.

Including Lu Qichang, as long as there are enough vacancies, he is fully capable of carrying the rank of senior superintendent.

Otherwise, Guan Wenzhan would not have been able to get the approval of the core management of the police force.

Even though Zhou Quan is deeply trusted by the top police officer, he has full authority to take charge of the security department's operations.

But how could he decide on this matter based on his own will, when it comes to the appointment of senior police officers?
The police force is the police force of Hong Kong Island, not Zhou Quan’s one-man show.

Zhou Quan's recommendation played a decisive role in Guan Wenzhan's successful promotion.

But in the final analysis, it still represents that Guan Wenzhan’s own abilities are outstanding enough.

However, in many cases, the support of the big guys will play a big role.

Otherwise, there would be more than 200 superintendent-level police officers within the gendarmerie level in the Hong Kong Police Force.

If Guan Wenzhan wants to successfully get promoted, the competition can be imagined to be difficult.

People who can secure mid-level positions in the police force, even if some of them have problems.

But the vast majority of them are elites with their own unique talents, especially the superintendents who are in charge of directing frontline operations.

It is precisely because of Zhou Quan's support that Guan Wenxian now completely follows the lead of his boss.

He managed the entire administrative team in an orderly manner, which also proved that even though Zhou Quan had some selfish motives, he would never make the wrong choice of person.

At that time, Luo Danian was qualified to compete with Guan Wenzhan for the position of administrative director of the Security Department.

But right now, there is no disturbance at all in the position of commander of the Liaison Affairs Section.

Luo Danian and the intelligence team he commanded were fully involved in all the operations that Zhou Quan was responsible for. In the years when Zhou Quan was in charge of the action team, Luo Danian not only participated in the front-line operations, but also served as the logistics manager of the entire action team.

Even Lu Qichang, who is also a direct subordinate of Zhou Quan, has no intention of competing with Luo Danian at all.

Luo Danian's promotion was not just Zhou Quan's idea, it was also recognized by all the police officers in the security department.

Amid the warm applause of all the police officers present, Luo Danian walked up to his boss with firm steps.

"Thank you, sir!"

Stamping his feet, standing at attention, raising his hand to salute, Luo Danian took the appointment document from his boss with a serious look.

At this moment, Luo Danian's serious and elegant expression was filled with excitement and excitement that was difficult to conceal.

At the beginning, his boss gave two options. If he was transferred out of the Security Department, his boss would do his best to arrange the promotion process for him and Lu Qichang to senior superintendent.

But he and Lu Qichang eventually gave up this option because of their trust in their boss.

Sure enough, within less than a year, the Security Department expanded its staff and he was successfully promoted to Senior Superintendent.

Although Lu Qichang was a step slow, they, the security department managers, all knew the truth.

As long as the bill prepared by their boss is fully implemented, these confidants of theirs will surely rise to fame.

Even being a senior superintendent is just the starting point of the future.

"Keep working hard and don't let down the trust of the core management."

His eyes swept across the bauhinia flowers and four-pointed star flowers on Luo Danian's shoulders, and Zhou Quan returned the salute very formally. He smiled and encouraged his trusted and beloved general in front of him.

Although there are documents regarding the establishment of the Liaison Affairs Department and the appointment letter for Luo Danian, they were all officially announced at today's meeting.

But in the meantime, Luo Danian had already met with the bigwigs of the core management of the police force.

Even though Zhou Quan's powers are very broad, he can take full charge of all matters concerning the security department.

However, the awarding of the rank of senior superintendent of police was obviously not something he was qualified to be personally responsible for.

"Come sit down next to Ah Xing!"

Then he glanced at the position next to Zhou Xingxing and motioned Luo Danian to go to his new position.

From today on, the three giants of the Security Department will become the structure of the four giants of the Security Department.

Three department heads at the level of senior superintendents gathered closely around Police Captain Quan and brought the security department to a new height.

After Luo Danian, the newly appointed deputy director of the security department, took his position, Zhou Quan once again picked up a police appointment document.

"Now, let us once again welcome a new colleague."

His eyes were fixed on the very familiar face at the end of the deputy commanders of each group in the security department, and Zhou Quan's smile became brighter.

"Recommended by the Security Department and approved by the Human Resources Department."

"The former deputy commander of the Anti-Triad Unit of the Kowloon West Police District, Chan Kwok-wah, is promoted to the position of Commander of the Criminal Operations Division 2 of the Security Wing."

"The police rank level is promoted from Chief Inspector to Superintendent, and the promotion appointment document is reported to the Hong Kong government for publication in the Gazette."

Facing the friendly and cordial gazes of the police officers on the scene, Chen Guohua, with three four-pointed stars on his shoulders, walked up to his old boss with firm and powerful steps.

At the current level of security department police officers, Zhou Quan’s cronies promoted from the West Kowloon headquarters occupy a considerable number of seats.

Naturally, they would not feel any strangeness towards one of their boss's trusted subordinates when he was in the grassroots police district, and they all maintained an extremely warm welcoming attitude.
