The award order signed by the prime minister did not say why Chen Guan was awarded the rank of second-class police superintendent, but only said that the rank of second-class police superintendent was awarded!

Meng Qingchuan obviously kept the members of the department's party committee secret, and did not tell them about sending Chen Guan to the United States to carry out the mission, except for Wang Xuewen, the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation, no one else knew about this matter at all, so it was impossible to understand why Chen Guan was awarded the rank of second-class police officer.

Chen Guan's shock was different from the shock of the other members of the Party Committee of the Public Security Department, he could not have imagined that such a high police rank would be awarded to him! You must know that what Director Meng Qingchuan promised was the treatment of a third-level police supervisor, that is, a director-level public security chief. That's it, Chen Guan felt that he thought about right and wrong, it was too surprising, it was too unusual, he didn't expect that what was awarded now was actually a second-level police superintendent, and that was the treatment of the deputy hall and the main hall!

What is even more surprising is still to come, after the main leaders of the provincial government read out the award order, they then read out the document of the provincial party committee, appointing Chen Guan as a member of the party committee and deputy department-level inspector of the Central Plains Provincial Public Security Department.

As soon as the leaders of the provincial government read out the appointment notice, Chen Guan stood up, saluted the leaders first, and then said earnestly: "Respected leaders, I implore the provincial party committee to withdraw the order, withdraw the appointment to me, and ask the leaders to report to the higher authorities and withdraw the rank of second-class police superintendent awarded to me." I'm only 23 years old, and I can't afford such a high rank and such a high position! ”

The eyes of the leaders of the provincial government looked at Chen Guan through the thick lenses, and asked coldly: "What, I'm afraid I can't do it?" ”

Chen Guan once again said earnestly: "Dear leaders, this is not a matter of not being able to do it, but such a high police rank and such a high position do not match my experience of just one year of work. I am willing to train at the grassroots level in a down-to-earth manner, step by step, and conscientiously do a good job in every position. I am now the secretary of the Party Committee of Zhouli Township, Mingshui County, but for various reasons, I have not yet taken office in Zhouli Township! I have already felt sorry for the fathers and villagers of Zhouli Township, I have lived up to their expectations, and I have also failed to live up to the trust placed in me by the Mingshui County Party Committee and the county government. I am willing to take off my police uniform, return to Zhouli Township, perform the duties of the secretary of the township party committee, and lead the people to get rich. When I have accumulated enough grassroots work experience and am indeed able to be promoted to a higher-level position, the leaders will put pressure on me again, and I will never shirk. Now let me be the deputy department-level inspector of the Provincial Public Security Department and grant me the rank of second-class police supervisor, I really can't afford it! ”

These are Chen Guan's words from the heart, he said it very sincerely, and he can experience his innocence from it! However, when these words are heard in other people's ears, there can only be one understanding: this baby's brain is in water!

In fact, the appointment of Chen Guan as a member of the party committee and deputy department-level inspector of the provincial public security department is itself a high-ranking and low-level inspector. Because the rank of second-level police superintendent is only awarded to substantive cadres of the deputy department, and there are restrictions on the length of service, police seniority and other conditions, it is not possible to confer the rank of second-level police superintendent as soon as he becomes the deputy director of the provincial public security department. Some provincial department directors are still with the rank of second-class police inspector. This is a workaround method adopted to implement the spirit of the instructions given by the leaders of the Central Inspection Group and to take into account Chen Guan's age, short police experience, and inexperience. If you want to be replaced by someone else, you don't want to, how can there be a second-level police superintendent rank as a deputy department-level vacant post!

After Chen Guan finished speaking, he stood there straight, waiting for the leaders to reply.

This kind of thing has not been encountered for many years, and this situation may occur in the war years, or in those old leaders who have experienced life and death disasters, for example, when our army first conferred the title, there was a story of an old general who took the initiative to ask for the reduction of the rank of the rank, which was the high wind and bright festival of the older generation of revolutionaries. However, even in that era, there were some generals who were born and died who thought that their military rank was low and that they were in love. Taizu once said that men don't flick when they have tears, but it's not time to confer the title. When is it now, others are trying to find relationships, go to the gatehouse, and run for officials, Chen Guan is good, he actually asked the leaders of the provincial party committee to withdraw his order, withdraw his appointment and police rank, and said that he was willing to take off his police uniform and go back to be the secretary of the township party committee in Zhouli, isn't this brain water? You must know that the deputy department-level inspector of the Public Security Department is a department-level cadre, and the secretary of the Zhouli Township Party Committee is only at the department level, and the difference between the two is more than 108,000 miles!

Chen Guan said sincerely, but in fact, there was a problem for the leaders!

The rank of second-class police superintendent was signed and conferred by the Premier of the State Council, so how can it be said that it will be withdrawn? The notice of appointment of the provincial party committee was passed through the Standing Committee, and it is also impossible to withdraw it casually!

Several leaders focused on Chen Guan.

Chen Guan is indeed too young, so young that the leaders can remember their youth. Such a 23-year-old young man, wearing the rank of second-class police superintendent and becoming a deputy department-level cadre, will he pull out the seedlings and help him? However, this young man's merits are there, and not rewarding them is not enough to reflect the principle of clear rewards and punishments.

For a while, the leaders did not speak, they were all thinking silently.

Meng Qingchuan was afraid that Chen Guan's brain would get into the water and make two mistakes, and he would lose the deputy department-level cadres in his hands, and he would regret it when he figured it out in the future!

I saw that Meng Qingchuan also stood up and yelled at Chen Guan: "Chen Guan, obey the order and listen to the command, sit down, and listen to the leader's speech!" ”

Chen Guan really sat down honestly, but after sitting down, he said earnestly again: "Respected leaders, what I said is true, please consider it!" ”

At this moment, Meng Qingchuan couldn't wait to rush up and slap Chen Guan and shut him up!

After a while, the principal responsible comrades of the provincial government said to Chen Guan with a pleasant face: "Comrade Chen Guan, we have made your attitude clear. So, you go outside the conference room and wait, and we'll look into it! ”

Chen Guan said thank you, "Governor", got up and left the conference room, stood outside the door, took out a cigarette, lit it, and slowly smoked it.

As soon as Chen Guan came out of the conference room, the responsible comrade of the provincial government said again: "Meng Qingchuan told him to stay, and the other comrades went out first and waited outside!" ”

The members of the leading group of the party committee of the public security department left their seats one after another and walked out of the conference room.

Among the leaders of these halls, only Wang Xuewen and Chen Guan are familiar with each other, and Chen Guan does not know anyone else.

After Wang Xuewen walked out of the conference room, he pulled Chen Guan over and over again, blaming him for being too impulsive, such a serious matter, the main leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial government came to confer the title in person, how could he say anything? Isn't this embarrassing for the leaders?

Chen Guan explained that this treatment is indeed too high, beyond his imagination, it is better not to want!

Wang Xuewen shook his head and said that Chen Guan really had a brain in water, and the two main leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial government came together to personally confer titles on Chen Guan, what a glorious thing. is the director of the department, at most, the organization minister or the secretary of the political and legal committee to accompany him, when has there ever been a secretary or governor who personally came to confer the title of a public security officer! Chen Guan, it's really, alas, I can't say!

About half an hour later, Meng Qingchuan pushed open the door of the conference room, with a dark face, and called for everyone to go in.

After resuming his seat of office, the principal responsible comrades of the provincial government said that after careful study, the leaders held that the award of the rank of second-class police supervisor to Comrade Chen Guan was issued by the prime minister and could not be changed. This is the glory of Comrade Chen Guan and the glory of the Central Plains public security contingent. The appointment of Comrade Chen Guan by the provincial party committee as a deputy department-level inspector of the provincial public security department has been appointed to the Standing Committee, and it cannot be revoked even if Comrade Chen Guan is not at fault. However, in consideration of the fact that Comrade Chen Guan was young, had little experience, and needed to be further tempered at the grassroots level, and also in consideration of Comrade Chen Guan's own request, the leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial government decided to revoke the appointment of Comrade Chen Guan by the Standing Committee after studying. Comrade Chen Guan still returned to work in Mingshui County, Shuiquan City. When the conditions are ripe in the future, Comrade Chen Guan will be adjusted to a post that matches the rank of second-level police superintendent.

After a while, due to Chen Guan's brain entering the water, he lost the deputy department-level position he had acquired. Chen Guan had to go back to Mingshui County and continue to be the secretary of his township party committee and deputy director of the Public Security Bureau.

In this way, there will be a township party secretary and deputy director of the county public security bureau with the rank of second-level police supervisor in Mingshui County, and I don't know how the Mingshui County Party Committee should manage Chen Guan!

Chen Guan did not plead with the leaders to cancel his rank of second-class police superintendent. He is not stupid, and he knows that any more verbosity will cause disgust among the leaders. Moreover, although the rank of second-level police superintendent is indeed too ruthless, after all, it was obtained by Chen Guan for meritorious service, not crying and shouting, let alone buying officials through doors. As the saying goes, God gives the Buddha to take, and the sin is also!

Chen Guan actually wants to work hard step by step from the grassroots level, it's not that he doesn't want to be a department-level cadre, he also wants to be a cadre bigger than a department-level cadre, but he is afraid that he lacks grassroots training experience, and the future road will be unstable!

With this second-level police superintendent rank, he must enjoy the corresponding salary, and at the same time, this is also the basis for Chen Guan's future progress. He knew that with this second-level police supervisor rank, he would be promoted to the post of secretary of the township party committee in a few years, and it was impossible not to be promoted and reused!

The leaders made a decision, and the next thing was very simple and smooth.

Chen Guan stood in front of the main leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, and the two leaders personally put on him the second-level police superintendent rank mark with two quadrangular flowers on them.

This moment was the most exciting moment, and there should have been TV reporters and newspaper photographers who took pictures and photographs on the spot, but because considering that the CIA would immediately understand the truth about Lu Bin's death after learning that Chen Guan had been awarded the rank of second-class police superintendent, the matter of Chen Guan being awarded the rank of second-class police superintendent was carried out in a state of secrecy, and no reporter participated, only a cadre from the Propaganda Department of the Political Department of the Provincial Public Security Department was ordered to come to the conference room to take pictures of Chen Guan, who had accepted the title. At this point, the cadre who took the photo was immediately told by the director of the department, Meng Qingchuan, that after the photos were washed out, they should not be disseminated, and only commemorative photos would be sent to Chen Guan and the provincial leaders, and the rest of the photos and negatives would be handed over to the department's archives for archiving.

At the award ceremony, when the main leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial government took a group photo with Chen Guan, they did not mention Chen Guan's trip to the United States, but only told him to be modest and cautious, guard against arrogance and rashness, and make new contributions!
