Chapter 41: The future is bright
After the so-called mobilization meeting, this year's assessment has actually begun.
Not surprisingly, the first is of course a step that must be completed in any selection assessment: a physical examination. It's just that compared to elite physical examinations such as pilots, the Ministry of State Security does not have too strict requirements for the physical conditions of agents, there is no limit to height, weight, appearance, tattoos and other things, as long as you do not have any hidden diseases or dark injuries on the body, it is enough to meet the requirements.
At the end of the day, agents from the Department of National Security don't need to be responsible for expensive equipment, as long as they can complete their tasks, they are good agents.
As a department that often deals with the most vicious criminals, the Ministry of State Security certainly has its own hospital, and it is right next to the headquarters, although the scale is not large, but the level and conditions are not low. Almost all the doctors and nurses of Guoan Hospital were dispatched to conduct a detailed and comprehensive examination of the more than 300 young elites.
Although he had already done a check when he graduated from college and joined the Ministry of State Security not long ago, Sun Peng did not exempt himself from this pass, honestly shuttling through various rooms with a stack of checklists, and letting those strangers in white coats point and poke at him......
More than 300 people, not too much, but too little, from the morning to the afternoon work, Sun Peng finally handed in his physical examination report.
"Excuse me, you are Sun Peng from the Archives Center, right?"
Just when Sun Peng saw that there was nothing wrong and was about to leave, he met a middle-aged man in his forties at the door, who seemed to be waiting for him, and asked with a smile.
"Yes, I am!"
Seeing that the other party was extraordinary, Sun Peng didn't dare to slack off, and nodded with a smile.
After confirming Sun Peng's identity, the smile on the middle-aged man's face became even greater, and then he smiled: "I am the director of the first operation, my surname is Sun, Sun Ledong, hehe, we are our family, we may still be a family hundreds of years ago......"
"Hello sir!"
With a slight movement in his heart, Sun Peng immediately saluted and greeted loudly.
"Hehe, don't be so restrained, this is not a formal occasion."
Waving his hand casually, Sun Ledong said with a smile: "Have you finished your physical examination?" Is there time for this? ”
Nodding, Sun Peng immediately said in a deep voice: "Report to the chief, my inspection has ended, and I have time at this time, do you have something to do with me?" ”
Compared with Liu Zhan, who usually has a cold face and is full of coolness, the director of the most powerful operation department of the Ministry of State Security is a good gentleman, with a round face, hair that is starting to thin slightly, and a somewhat fat figure, he does have the potential of the uncle next door.
But......
Sun Peng thought about it, and finally decided that he definitely hadn't seen this Director Sun, so he couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
Seeing Sun Peng's somewhat confused gaze, Sun Ledong took a step forward and laughed in a low voice: "Little Sun, it's almost time now, how about going to have a meal together if there's nothing to do?" The Koyanagi restaurant next to it has two new dishes, and the taste is quite good...... How about going for it? ”
"Uh...... It's good. ”
Although it was in a tone of soliciting opinions, Sun Ledong's identity was there, and the enthusiasm on his face really did not allow Sun Peng to refuse, he just hesitated slightly, and then quickly nodded and agreed.
At this point, Sun Peng had already guessed Sun Ledong's intention.
Chen Qingqing once said that Shangguan Cai also deliberately gave Sun Peng a preventive shot, and this year's assessment is due to the special situation, all departments of the Intelligence Department and the Operations Department attach great importance to it, especially in the case of a large number of external elites participating, the competition for top talents will definitely reach a white-hot level!
It's inevitable to make contact in advance in private and play the emotional card.
The above is not against such a situation, after all, it is a two-way choice thing, it is your ability to see the right person, and it is also your ability to pull people, which must be prepared by the heads of most departments. Just like Shangguan Cai said, in the eyes of outsiders, the Intelligence Department and the Operations Department are the most beautiful departments of national security, and everyone is vying to join them, but for them, it is not easy to select the most elite group of people from them!
Think about it, more than 300 elites participated in this year's assessment, and only more than 30 people were able to join in the end, almost reaching a ratio of ten to one. But don't forget, even the agents of Guoan itself still have a huge gap of nine to four levels, and in addition to the difference in the accumulation of experience between each level, their personal strength and quality are also very different, so even if it is the elite of the elite, after all, there is a difference between the superior and the inferior, and more than 30 people are enough to divide a three, six, nine and so on.
Guoan itself is the country's top operational agency, responsible for the most complex and difficult tasks in the country, who doesn't want to make their department stronger? It's just that Sun Peng can't figure it out, he has been labeled as an intelligence department, which many people know, how did the director of the operation department find himself?
But no matter what, the leader couldn't refuse the invitation, Sun Peng and Sun Ledong came to the Xiaoliu restaurant next to it and sat down in a private room.
"Xiao Sun, I heard that you have decided to go to the intelligence department?"
After ordering the food and chatting a few words, Sun Ledong suddenly changed the topic and asked with a smile.
"Well, yes."
Sun Peng nodded and smiled very calmly: "Director Shangguan sent me an invitation a long time ago, so ...... I've decided to join the Intelligence Division. ”
"Yes, yes, the intelligence department is indeed a very good department."
Without any other expressions, Sun Ledong still nodded with a smile on his face and said: "And to tell the truth, Director Shangguan is indeed the dragon and phoenix among the people, and it can be said that he is one of the few strong leaders of our Ministry of State Security in recent years, your choice is quite good!" ”
"Huh?"
After listening to Sun Ledong's words, Sun Peng was stunned.
Sun Peng originally thought that Director Sun came today to invite him to join the action, so he simply picked out his choice early, but after listening to these words, he found that the other party didn't seem to have this meaning, but agreed with his choice?
"But ......"
Just when Sun Peng was wondering in his heart, Sun Ledong suddenly changed the topic, and said with a smile: "After all, Xiao Sun, you have just come to Guoan for a long time, and you don't know much about our situation!" Although it is said that the Intelligence Department and the Operations Department are the same, and they are one of the powerful departments of our national security, there is still a big difference in this function......"
"It's coming!"
With a wry smile, Sun Peng couldn't help but feel ashamed of his suspicion just now, these heads and brains are really not the kind of people who are willing to say good things for others.
Waving his hand vigorously, Sun Ledong said very passionately: "This intelligence department, to put it bluntly, is a department for information collection and situation investigation, and if there are any difficult, strange or major cases, they will be handed over to investigate...... Of course, their work is still very important, and if things are relatively simple, they can be dealt with directly, there is nothing to say. But! ”
When he said this, Sun Ledong paused deliberately, and his voice was lowered a lot: "What if you encounter a fierce and strong opponent?" Although the strength of the intelligence department is not weak, I am afraid it will be very difficult to deal with it by itself, so we can only ask our operations department to come out! This is not my boasting, in our Ministry of National Security, the Operations Department is the most decisive department, it can be said to be the final solution department, and if we act in one place, it is definitely the best among them, after entering, it can be said that the future is bright, and the future is infinite......"
Sun Ledong actually stood up when he spoke, waving his arms to strengthen his tone, and for a while he was foaming at the foam, and his spirit was flying!
Sun Peng was stunned.
Since he joined Guoan, whether it is the old employees of the archives center, or the heads of other departments he usually comes into contact with, such as Shangguan Cai and Liu Zhan, which one is not steady and down-to-earth? Even Shangguan Cai, who deliberately showed closeness to Sun Peng later, still had to maintain his majesty as a leader.
This Director Sun, how can he ......
Unaware that his image in Sun Peng's mind had been destroyed, Sun Ledong saw that Sun Peng seemed to be at a loss, smiled, and suddenly leaned over and whispered: "Little Sun, did you see Agent Ling Zhenling in our department a few days ago?" ”
"Agent Ling?"
After Sun Peng was stunned, he suddenly understood everything.
Thinking back to the sloppy man who made him feel cold, Sun Peng's eyes narrowed slightly, nodded and said softly: "Yes, I saw him once at the shooting range." ”
"That's right!"
patted Sun Peng on the shoulder, Sun Ledong smiled happily: "Detective Ling attaches great importance to Xiao Sun, you are very important, you specially found me yesterday and asked me to invite you to join the action!" Tsk, Xiao Sun, Ling Zhen is one of the only two fourth-level agents in our national security, he values you so much, as long as you join our operation in the future, it will really be a promising future......"
