Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 687: Unfortunately, there is something missing
It is not a mandatory duty requirement for police CPs and DCPs to attend the police academy graduation ceremony.

Whichever of the four police chiefs has time can come over.

Normally, Zhou Quan would rarely take part in leisurely work, which could even be said to be almost like taking half a day off.

However, this time, Li Jiajun is among the graduating students, so Zhou Quan will definitely come and take a look.

Logically speaking, Zhou Quan's uncle Li Wenbin should be the person who would be most happy to see Li Jiajun receive honors from the police academy.

It’s a pity that Li Wenbin’s rank is not high enough and he does not work in the Personnel Department.

Plus today is Monday, the first day of the workday.

Coming all the way here to attend his son's graduation ceremony is clearly not SACP Lee's character.

What's more, Li Wenbin has other important work today.

He will be busy this week inspecting the six police districts under the police force.

On the other hand, Zhou Quan's recent work is not heavy, and he is qualified to represent the top level of the entire police force.

So he simply took half a day off from his busy schedule to witness the glorious moment of his handsome boy.

"Sir, it's already 8:25, shall we start the ceremony?"

Just as Zhou Quan was checking the files of all the outstanding students, Principal Jiang Ping tilted his head slightly and began to ask for the opinions of the boss.

It was exactly 8:30 am. This was the exact time when the graduation ceremony of the Wong Chuk Hang Police Academy began.

Unless there are any unexpected circumstances, this tradition will not change.

But now the big boss is sitting next to him, so Principal Jiang will naturally not be negligent in dealing with human relationships.

"let's start!"

Nodding slightly, Zhou Quan casually closed the folder in front of him.

Five minutes later, military music sounded from an entrance to the right of the rostrum.

The first team to enter was the flag guard team armed with live ammunition.

The bright red national flag is guarded in the center, with the district flag and the police flag on either side.

Behind the color guard was the silver band and bagpipe band, led by a police superintendent.

Then came today’s protagonist, the team of students who successfully graduated.

The two teams at the front were all wearing white shirts.

This is the inspection class that has graduated this term, with nearly seventy people in total.

As the prestige of the police force continues to grow, the number of people willing to join the police force is also increasing year by year.

Although the number of people who applied to join the police force this year did not reach 10,000, it was still more than 5,000.

However, the only people who were able to successfully enter the police academy were the few hundred people participating in the graduation ceremony.

Two inspection classes and six police trainee classes.

You know, the two inspection teams are not just fresh blood recruited by the police force from all walks of life.

Among them are talents who have passed the inspector selection process in various departments of the police force.

These promoted personnel within the police force account for more than 70% of the inspectorate team.

It is conceivable how competitive the police academy is in each admission cycle.

After all, people like Zhou Quan who are directly admitted to the inspector class of the police academy are only a minority.

It is also because of this that after graduating from university, Li Jiajun entered the Wong Chuk Hang Police Academy to receive 27 weeks of cadet training.

The reason is simple, handsome boy Ah Jun did not pass the police academy's inspector class. Of course, after passing the cadet training and joining the police force, it does not mean that Li Jiajun must accumulate experience and merits in the rank of officer if he wants to be promoted to the inspector level in the future.

Because the police force increasingly attaches importance to internal talent training, another new system was implemented while upgrading the Wong Chuk Hang Police School.

These are people who have good enough qualifications but failed to be selected into the police academy’s inspector class.

While serving in the police force, they can continue to participate in the open recruitment process for the subsequent Police Academy Inspectorate Class.

As long as you are successful in the application, you can directly enter the police academy's inspector class.

Ultimately, Li Jiajun is the third generation of the Li faction in the police force.

Although Zhou Quan has taken up the banner of the Li faction of the police force, he has now stepped out of the Li faction and built the Zhou faction of the police force with him as the core.

With his support, the Li faction of the police force will not fall into decline due to a lack of successors.

But after him, if Xiao Chang'an also devotes himself to the construction of the police force, he will eventually only inherit his power capital.

As the name of the Li faction of the police force suggests, the core of the future will definitely be people with the surname Li.

No matter how much the elders in the family cultivated and valued Zhou Quan, and they were as close as a family, Zhou Quan's surname was not Li after all.

Influenced by three generations of people, Li Jiajun was destined to join the police force and gradually take up the banner of the Li faction in the police force.

Therefore, even though he failed to be admitted to the Police Academy Inspectorate Class, he still entered the Wong Chuk Hang Police Academy as a cadet.

From this point of view, Huang Bingyao, Zhou Quan and Li Wenbin are worthy of their current identities and powers within the police force.

Otherwise, if the three core management leaders of the police force had just given a heads-up, how could Li Jiajun have failed in the open recruitment process for the police academy inspector?

Everyone is selfish. When the conditions and qualifications are met, the three of them will definitely give priority to Li Jiajun.

However, when Li Jiajun did not meet the competition conditions, the three of them obviously would not bend the law for personal gain.

All the performance teams circled the playground and then stood in their designated positions in an orderly manner.

At this time, Zhou Quan was the first to stand up from the rostrum.

He picked up the microphone in front of him and ordered in a deep voice: "Everyone stand up!"

The next moment, no one was sitting on the entire police academy playground.

The flag guard is in place, and the next step is naturally the flag-raising ceremony.

With the bright five-star red flag about to be raised high, how could Zhou Quan continue to sit in his seat with his arms and legs spread out?

The other police captains beside him had already stood up at the first moment following the boss' lead, without any need for the boss to give any orders.

The families of the students who came to attend the ceremony in the audience seats on both sides of the rostrum could not remain indifferent either.

Since they have sent their family members to the Hong Kong Island Police Force, they naturally recognize the police force, the Hong Kong government, and the patriotic people in their hometown.

Sitting and watching their own flag rise? They are not those banana people with bad intentions.

Accompanied by a passionate music, with the main color being bright red, three flags slowly fluttered in the wind and rose high.

From then on, the graduation ceremony of this term of Wong Chuk Hang Police School officially entered its climax stage.

The police captains and officers on the rostrum slowly took their seats, and the various teams below began to line up and then walked in front of the rostrum one by one.

Looking at the fresh blood of the vigorous police force in front of him, Zhou Quan couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

He was very satisfied with the mental state of all the trainees, but he did not approve of the marching ceremony currently used in the police academy.

It was Sir He Quan's first time attending a police academy graduation ceremony, and the cadets being reviewed were still marching in the Western style.

When he becomes the top police official, his first order will definitely be to replace these dross with the more majestic Chinese-style marching drill.
