Hong Kong Police Force Chief

Zhou Quan is a father for the first time. Even though the child has not been born yet, he has become more mature.

He used to shave his beard very neatly every day, but now he grows it subconsciously.

The brothers in the security department are most impressed by Zhou Quan's changes.

In the past, although their boss was sophisticated, he was sharp.

However, after the Spring Festival, their boss became more restrained.

It's like a jar of old wine that has been collected for many years, mellow but not without spiciness.

However, many members of the security department are not clear about the reason for Zhou Quan's change.

Only Zhou Quan's trusted generals know that their boss is about to become a father.

As for the elders in Zhou Quan's family, they learned the news on the second day of the New Year.

The fourth generation of the Li family is about to be born, which makes the whole Li Garden nervous.

The pillars of the family continue to do their normal work in the police force, but keep this good news firmly in mind.

But the women in the family were different. They regarded Ou Yongen as the core of the entire Li family.

Not to mention Zhou Quan, who was deeply valued and loved by the elders of the Li family, even the status of Mr. Li Shutang had to move back.

On the day of the Spring Festival, after the Li family learned that Ou Yongen was pregnant, the Li family unanimously decided to let Zhou Quan and Ou Yongen move back to Li Garden to live.

For this decision, the couple had no right to raise any different opinions.

For the current Li family, ensuring the safe and smooth birth of the fourth generation is the top priority.

Time passed slowly as the elders of the Li family almost counted the days, and more than five months passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the security environment in Hong Kong Island was still good.

Although there were constant small waves, no serious and bad cases occurred.

At least there were no cases that required Zhou Quan, the head of the security department, to personally command the entire security department to launch an action.

Since joining the police force, Zhou Quan has rarely been directly involved in front-line operations for a long time.

For most Hong Kong Island citizens, their lives have been peaceful and stable since the return.

However, in the upper echelons of Hong Kong Island, these few months are not peaceful.

The first major event after the Lunar New Year in 1998 was that the Hong Kong government's organizational structure was once again greatly adjusted.

The Security Department, which was originally under the Hong Kong government's Secretary for Administration, was upgraded to the Security Bureau by Mr. Tung.

In the gazette issued by the Hong Kong government, it is clearly stipulated that the Security Bureau is the superior organization of most disciplined forces in Hong Kong Island.

Only the Independent Commission Against Corruption is very special and still directly responsible to the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Government.

The dust has settled on the Security Bureau, which is also a good thing for Zhou Quan.

Lu Minghua, who jumped out of the Hong Kong Island Police Force system after the return of Hong Kong Island, has now been appointed as the Permanent Secretary of the Security Bureau.

If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Minghua will be able to successfully sit in the position of Secretary for Security within ten years.

Zhou Quan and Lu Minghua have a deep friendship, which naturally belongs to the strengthening of Zhou Quan's personal connections.

However, for Zhou Quan, Lu Minghua's promotion is not a huge impact.

After all, Lu Minghua is only the third in command of the Security Bureau, and is not enough to participate too much in the internal affairs of the police force.

After the successful upgrading of the Security Bureau, the things that can really affect Zhou Quan are actually another aspect.

That is the implementation of the National Security Act. After the establishment of the Security Bureau, it has completely entered the stage of implementation.

After many studies and discussions between the Hong Kong government and the motherland, it was finally determined that a national security department that complies with laws and regulations and is clearly stipulated will be established within the Hong Kong Island Police Force.

This department undoubtedly falls on the Security Department of the Police Force.

On August 1, when the motherland celebrated the Army Day, the National Security Act was completely implemented.

This day has a very important meaning for Zhou Quan.

In public, the police force will hold a full management meeting today.

Most importantly, this meeting not only includes the entire management of the police force, but also many bigwigs in Hong Kong Island will attend.

Chief Executive Mr. Tung and the heads of the three secretaries are all present.

Its main goal is to thoroughly determine the department within the Hong Kong Police Force that is responsible for maintaining national security as stipulated in the National Security Act, as well as the person in charge of this department.

Personally, it is Au Wing-yan's due date, which is between the end of July and the beginning of August.

In the early morning of August 1, Au Wing-yan was taken to the hospital delivery room under the protection of Zhou Quan's aunt and aunt to wait for delivery.

Logically, as a husband, Zhou Quan should be with Au Wing-yan at this critical moment.

But today's full management meeting of the police force is very important, and Zhou Quan simply cannot take leave to be absent.

With mixed emotions such as uneasiness and excitement, Zhou Quan sat at the top of the seat of the Chief Superintendent of the police force and listened quietly to the announcements of the bigwigs above.

"According to Article 16 of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region National Security Law, the Security Department of the Police Force will be reorganized into the National Security Department."

The Chief Justice of the Hong Kong Government personally read out the entire content of the National Security Act, and at the same time officially announced a major decision that affects the internal structure of the entire police force.

"Next, please ask the Commissioner of Police, Sir Hui, to announce the personnel appointments of the National Security Department."

After the Attorney General took his seat, the police chief slowly stood up at the end of the podium with a folder.

According to the organizational structure of the Hong Kong government, although the police are at home now, the chief's position is at the end.

The chief's eyes quickly swept across the police management personnel below, and finally settled on Zhou Quan.

"After discussion by the Hong Kong government's National Security Committee, the former head of the police security department, Chief Superintendent Zhou Quan, was promoted."

He slowly opened the folder in his hand and solemnly read out the most influential personnel appointment in the police since the return.

"Head of the National Security Department of the police, with a police rank of Assistant Director."

Because of the implementation of the National Security Act, the original assistant director in the police force has now added a seat out of thin air.

As the drafter and proposer of the National Security Act.

Zhou Quan rode the tide of the general trend and officially became the head of the National Security Department.

The SAR Bauhinia flower on his shoulder will soon be replaced by two new crossed batons, and he will be completely included in the core management of the police force.

"Now please invite Assistant Commissioner Zhou Quan to come to the stage to accept the title from the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Government."

As the voice of the boss Xu Sir fell, the entire venue instantly rose up in an extremely warm applause.

Facing the attention of the big boss above and his colleagues below, Zhou Quan slowly stood up and strode towards the rostrum with his head held high.
