History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 466 Showdown
"Master."

Wan Chai.

Haifeng food stalls.

With a cigarette in his mouth, He Dingxian opened a bottle of beer and put it in front of Chen Li: "I've been in the police force for more than ten years, and it's easiest to sit and drink with you. Come, have a drink."

"do not."

Chen Li raised the bottles to touch each other, put the mouth of the bottle on his lips, and said, "It's definitely not good for you to invite me to drink in private."

He blew off half the bottle in one gulp.

He Dingxian chuckled lightly and said, "Hehe, it's not because of your care. Without your support, I would definitely not be able to get to where I am today."

"Go ahead."

"What's the matter."

Chen Li put down the bottle, picked up two peanuts with chopsticks, threw them into his mouth and chewed them.

night.

nine o'clock.

The cool sea breeze blows through the streets.

He Dingxian said: "According to my information, the Hong Kong government is about to establish an anti-corruption office, independent of the Security Bureau, and directly under the governor's jurisdiction. The first target is the Chinese in our police force, and the community relations office is the first step."

"The shortest is three years, and the slowest is five years. The Hong Kong government will definitely attack us. Therefore, I want the newcomers to take over and the old to retire."

Chen Li narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at He Dingxian, did not ask whether the matter was true or not, but sighed: "This is why you suppressed A Luo and Cai sir? Are you afraid that they will be too popular and burn yourself?"

"Correct."

He Dingxian nodded: "The fire will definitely burn, and I'm afraid that some people will not back down."

"Are you willing?"

Chen Li's eyes were burning.

"I can't retreat."

He Dingxian took a sip of wine: "I have earned enough money, and I have a reputation and a status. If I am willing to quit, I will definitely be able to enjoy the glory, but if I quit, I will have to sacrifice a lot of Chinese police officers. Only I will carry it, brothers Only then will there be a chance to go ashore safely.”

Chen Li nodded, knowing that He Dingxian was telling the truth. From outsiders' point of view, he might want to seize power, but if the first brother stepped back, what about the people at the bottom?In war and retreat, one must be in the rear, and the rear is the most dangerous.

When and where, power cannot be completely let go, the next group of people must have the previous group, otherwise, the Chinese will usher in a big liquidation.At the beginning, it may only liquidate the police force internally, and then it may expand into national capital and collective Chinese.

"So, you bastard wants Master to take the lead, and write a resignation letter to retire first?" Chen Li ate peanuts, and said He Dingxian's purpose in a casual tone, and He Dingxian nodded: "Yes."

"Master is a superintendent. Once he retires, the brothers will have a role model."

"Whoever has opinions in his heart and feels uncomfortable, unless he draws a gun at me, otherwise, he will not be able to speak."

Chen Li rolled his eyes and cursed: "Stinky boy, every time there is an important matter, you ask me to come out to take the thunder. Once this matter is done, no one will respect me in the future."

"hey-hey."

He Dingxian said with a playful smile: "I will honor you, Uncle Li."

Chen Li shook his head: "Forget it, I can't be a superintendent without you, so I will pay you back. Who told me to take in a good apprentice, the police circle envies me."

He took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and put it in his mouth, He Dingxian quickly took out the lighter to help light it up: "Master, without you, I would not exist, Ah Yin will always remember it in my heart."

"Stop saying nice things."

Chen Li propped his elbows on the table, held a cigarette between his hands, and thoughtfully said: "Because to prevent the anti-corruption agency from attacking, we should replace the old brothers with dirty materials in advance, and support clean and clean young people to take the position. Can slightly avoid the edge and preserve strength."

"As long as the middle layer doesn't get knocked down, you won't be able to fall down from above."

Chen Li's tone paused, and he looked at He Dingxian's eyes again, knowing that with Sir He's character, he would never stick to it blindly, and would definitely fight back, but the deeper plan would definitely not be revealed now.After all, what's the use of shaking him an old bone who is about to retire, other than leaking secrets?

If you don't plan things in secret, you won't succeed!

So he didn't open his mouth to ask, but said: "In the past two years, a large number of young police officers have been promoted, and they have been promoted to a higher level in two or three years. Have you already thought about dealing with the governor?"

"If you come out to hang out, you have to watch it for at least five years. If you are too short-sighted, you will fall into the trap." He Dingxian was noncommittal, saw that the boss had put on a piece of East Star Spot, tasted it with a chopstick, and then said: "The Hong Kong government used anti-corruption to attack the police force. There are traces to follow, Master, as the head of the Anti-Corruption Office, you should also know how sharp this sword is."

"Yes." Chen Li pondered for a moment, then nodded his head: "Why don't you tell Ah Luo and Sir Cai about the matter? Brothers have something to say directly, so don't create gaps."

"If I tell them, will they believe it?" He Dingxian smiled self-deprecatingly: "I don't feel at ease when they say they believe it. Since at least I have to guard against it, it's better to be open and aboveboard, at least let Ah Luo, Cai sir and the others You can see the direction of the wind."

"Don't call me a sinister villain at the end."

Chen Li thought that Mr. He was a bit ambitious, but when he put himself in his shoes, he sighed: "No one will believe you before the governor makes a move. If the governor really makes a move, it will be too late to change people."

"Besides, each of them holds real power, and there are thousands of people eating under their hands. Whether they are willing to give up power or not, it is impossible to retire because of a guess, especially when Lei Luo, Yan Xiong and others are fighting In this year, the ambition has not diminished."

"If I hadn't been in my 50s, I would have retired a long time ago. If you asked me to retire now, I wouldn't be reconciled."

"After all, I haven't enjoyed being a superintendent yet. When I become a superintendent, I more or less want to be at the director level." People have desires, and it is natural to be greedy.But the relationship between Chen Li and He Dingxian is extraordinary, and they must be trusted unconditionally in order to adjust their mentality.Looking at it from another perspective, Sir He is like steering a small boat and watching the raging storm. It is undoubtedly the most difficult thing to control the people on board and keep the boat.

At this time, it doesn't matter who is alive, who is dead, who gets on and who gets off, the important thing is to keep the ship from sinking, once the ship sinks, the whole damn thing will be over!

"Yes, I can understand." He Dingxian showed bitterness, raised the bottle to toast with Master, drank the wine and said: "So, I have been using the most gentle means to solve things, and spent two or three years slowly Showdown with brothers."

"Don't be in a hurry. If you are in a hurry, something will happen. You have to take it step by step and replace people one by one."

It takes time to heal the wounds of the reform policy. One by one "cutting the feudal clan" may succeed, and if one cuts the feudal clan one at a time, there will be people who will rebel!This is a lesson learned from history, so Sir He was the first to come to talk to Master.

Use Chen Li, who is famous and powerful, but lacks the basic foundation, as an example, and then replace Qian Weishan, Huo Jiacheng, Zhong Dewei, etc., and finally it will be the turn of Cai Zhaoguang, Zeng Shaoke, Lei Luo, etc. .

Because, this will gradually weaken the power of the old brothers, and then form a consensus on retirement, so that Cai Zhaoguang, Zeng Shaoke and others choose to bow their heads.

"Who will be the superintendent of the anti-corruption room?"

Chen Li drank two bottles of wine and asked aloud.He Dingxian smiled: "You can choose, as long as you can handle things. After all, once the anti-corruption storm breaks out, the police force will also bear the brunt of it. A capable person is needed."

"understood."

Chen Li thought of a candidate: "There is a young man named Li Junxia who is very good. He is now a senior inspector of anti-corruption in Hong Kong Island. He will be promoted to chief inspector. He will take over my position in two years."

Before the Hong Kong government officially launched the operation, the position of the ghosts in the police force will not be shaken. Some high-level positions are temporarily lacking clean and capable young people to take over, so they can be let go temporarily.Let the young people exercise for two or three years, and wait for the right opportunity to take over.

He Dingxian remembers that Li Junxia was a uniformed police officer who graduated from Mount Elizabeth Secondary School and served as the police chief of the Taipingshan Department.But because he offended the boss of the Wuyi Chamber of Commerce and his official career was not going well, Chen Li deliberately transferred him to the anti-corruption office.

Although He Dingxian himself has no friendship with Li Junxia, ​​since he is recommended by Master, he must give him trust.

At the end of the month, Chen Li formally submitted a retirement application to the Chief of Police. Since his age was far beyond the 45-year-old retirement threshold for Chinese police officers, the Chief of Police, Kun Xian, asked Mr. He about his thoughts in private, and readily signed and agreed.

At the same time, Li Junxia was promoted and transferred to the Chief Inspector of Tai Kwun Anti-Corruption Office.

This up and down did not cause any waves within the police force.Because at Sir Chen's age, it is normal to enjoy retirement, and it is even more normal to recommend a subordinate for promotion before retiring.But the foreshadowing of the internal withdrawal of the Chinese in the police force was planted here.

half year later.

"Brother Xian."

Wearing a suit, Qian Weishan knocked on the door of the assistant director's office, stood at attention at the desk and saluted, and said with a smile, "What's your order?"

"Ashan."

He Dingxian slid his fingers across the table, walked out of the desk and came to the old man, and said, "The crime rate of O Ji in the Kowloon District in the first half of the year is not very good, the director is slapping the table in the conference room, you have to give me an explanation. "

Qian Weishan's face changed suddenly. Thinking of the rumors in Kowloon District, he explained in a panic: "Brother Xian, Chao Yiyong, Xinji, Yiqun, and any association in Kowloon District are not easy to mess with. O Ji can only guarantee to solve the case." rate, the crime rate cannot be guaranteed.”

"Besides, in the past, citizens had to go directly to the police station to report the crime. The police station can control the number of crimes. But now many citizens learn to first complain to the community relations department, and then transfer the case to the police station through the community relations department."

"In this way, cases are recorded in the community relations department, and it is difficult to reduce them."

He Dingxian took him to the sofa, sat down alone, raised his legs, and asked carefully, "It's difficult, so you don't have to do it?"

"He sir."

"That was not what I meant."

Qian Weishan secretly thought that something was wrong, and his face was anxious.

"Have you seen the trouble in the community relations department? I reminded you to do your job well in addition to earning money, but now there is no trick at all." He Dingxian said: "Change O Ji to someone else to manage it, so as not to save money." You are being blamed, you should first transfer to Taiguan to help me."

Qian Weishan felt guilty, he was not sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to enter the hall, but seeing Sir He was staring at him, he could only agree, "Thank you Brother Xian."
