Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 497: Brother Confides

Zhou Quan likes to drink tea on weekdays. Although he doesn't practice tea ceremony often, he is obviously familiar with the process.

Just now, the boss in the family had reached the stage of washing the tea, and he took over and continued with the subsequent processes.

After a smooth Chaozhou Gongfu tea, Zhou Quan served his boss a cup of Dahongpao, whose tea soup was ruddy yet clear and bright.

Even though he was not yet able to reach the level of smelling and tasting tea, he was obviously familiar with the most basic types of tea.

As the first chief of the police force after Hong Kong's return to China, Sir Xu naturally enjoys the trust of the higher-ups in Hong Kong.

Even though the pot of Dahongpao in front of you is not produced from the mother tree on Mount Wuyi, it is definitely a very rare treasure on the market.

Thanks to his boss, he can have a good meal today.

Even though he was drooling in his heart, Zhou Quan still showed respect for his boss on the surface.

He put down the tea set and stood in front of Yi Ge as straight as a pine or cypress.

"You kid, sit down quickly!"

The eldest brother glared at Zhou Quan in displeasure and jokingly said, "Why do you become more and more restrained after wearing two batons?"

Such frank words show how close and admiring Yige is to Zhou Quan.

"Boss, I am really a little scared!"

Zhou Quan smiled awkwardly and sat obediently on the sofa opposite his brother.

Sir Quan, who is well versed in the ways of the world, can naturally hear the intimacy and kindness of the boss in front of him.

Therefore, he did not use the more formal title of "chief" as before, but instead changed to the more intimate and private title of "big brother".

"It's normal for an assistant director who's less than 30 years old to be terrified!"

Nodding slightly, Brother Yi smiled in agreement. He said with a little emotion: "When I was your age, I had just been crowned a few years ago."

"At that time, the foreigners blocked the upward space for us Chinese."

"I remember that at that time, your grandfather was the first Chinese police superintendent in the police force, except for Sir Zeng, followed by me and Sir Li."

“Although it was due to the constraints of the current situation and politics, it is still unthinkable to manage the core of the police force when they are less than 30 years old!”

While speaking, the elder brother paused for a moment.

He slowly sat up straight and stared at Zhou Quan with a very serious and solemn look.

"However, your promotion to Assistant Commissioner was decided after discussions between the police force, the Hong Kong government, and even the motherland."

"You are not only the initiator of the National Security Act, but your achievements in the Security Department over the years are also obvious to all."

"Now that the Security Department has been expanded into the National Security Department, you are the most suitable candidate for the commander."

"Exceptional promotion is not only a recognition of your work performance, but also a spur and encouragement to you."

"I won't go into detail about the importance of the National Security Department."

"I'm only telling you one thing now. If this department runs into problems under your command,

"Your future service in the police force ends here."

When Yi Ge finished speaking, his tone even showed a very stern tone.

"I'll give you a chance to choose between guarding the pond or being a traffic policeman."

The boss is worthy of being the boss. There is no difference in the way he treats his brothers who are incapable of fulfilling their duties.

If Zhou Xingxing were there, he would definitely feel the same way as his boss.

At this moment, Zhou Quan deeply felt how much his elder brother valued him.

If the boss didn't regard me as his own, he wouldn't have given me so many instructions.

"Sir, I am willing to issue a military order!"

Without any hesitation or delay, Zhou Quan stood up instantly.

He stamped his feet, stood at attention, raised his hand to salute, and made his promise with an extremely firm look.

"If I get into any trouble with the National Security Department, you can just strip me of my uniform!"

The National Security Department is an important department within the Hong Kong Island statutory police force that maintains national security. If Zhou Quan really makes any serious mistakes, he will not be able to forgive himself.

Publicly, he was too ashamed to face the respect and trust of these bigwigs behind him.

Personally, he was too ashamed to see his grandfather.

Yi Ge stared at Zhou Quan deeply, as if he wanted to remember Zhou Quan's current promise firmly in his mind.

After more than ten seconds, Yi Ge finally regained his former friendliness and harmony.

"Sit down and talk!"

He raised his hand and pressed it lightly, then mentioned with a smile his intention to summon Zhou Quan alone.

"Ah Quan, you have managed the Security Department in an orderly manner. Now the Security Department is about to be upgraded to the National Security Department."

“Do you have any suggestions for the planning?”

Rather than asking Zhou Quan about his plans for the National Security Department, the first brother was actually asking about the staffing issues within the National Security Department.

The Security Department was upgraded to the National Security Bureau, and its internal organizational structure can be almost copied from the various departments of the original Security Department.

Even if there are some changes, Zhou Quan, the assistant director-level commander, can make the decision.

The only thing Zhou Quan cannot decide is the personnel changes within the National Security Bureau.

To be precise, it should be personnel changes in the core management.

Today, Zhou Quan, the commander of the National Security Department, wears the epaulettes of the rank of Assistant Commissioner of Police on his shoulders.

Under him, he needs at least a chief superintendent as his deputy.

Looking within the police force, there are only a few dozen chief superintendents.

The upgrading of the Security Department to the National Security Department undoubtedly added a chief superintendent's seat out of thin air.

You know, the Chief Superintendent is undoubtedly the management of the police force.

Now that there is suddenly an extra seat, the nearly 100 senior police superintendents will definitely compete with all their might.

Even the chief superintendent of police from other departments would probably try his best to squeeze into the National Security Department.

Unless you are an idiot, who can't see the bright future of the National Security Bureau?
"Boss, you are the top officer of the police force. You are the head of the entire police force."

Zhou Quan sat down again, put his hands on his knees, and gave his answer without thinking.

"The National Security Department is a subordinate department of the police force, and I am a soldier under your command."

"I'll do whatever you say, Boss!"

According to Zhou Quan's idea, it would be natural to promote the best among his brothers.

But this is the position of Chief Superintendent after all, not the previous position of Superintendent or Senior Superintendent, and he simply doesn't have the nerve to ask for it.

After all, he had been promoted exceptionally by the boss, so how could he dare to have any unreasonable expectations?

After all, the three senior superintendents under him were promoted in a rather short period of time.

"Ah Quan, you little rascal!"

The eldest brother squinted his eyes and looked Zhou Quan up and down, and he suddenly laughed and scolded.

Although Zhou Quan didn't say it explicitly, there was no unusual change in his expression.

But who is Brother Yi? How could he not guess what Zhou Quan was thinking?

"If we promote someone from within the current security department, do you have any suitable candidates?"

Then, the eldest brother straightened his expression and expressed his thoughts directly and directly.

The Security Department has always been shouldered by Zhou Quan’s direct lineage, and Zhou Quan is his direct lineage.

Continuing to maintain the purity of the original security department's staff will, in Yi Ge's opinion, be more conducive to the work of the National Security Bureau.

After all, he had already promoted Zhou Quan out of turn, so he wouldn't be short of a chief superintendent now.
