Section 79 Ministry of the Interior [II]
Lawrence. Fisborne didn't think about it for long. By the evening of the next day www.biquge.info the unusually tired officer, who had not had a good night's rest, had appeared on the deck of the Agile.
"I figured it out, sir, that a job in the police department is not for people like me," he smiled self-deprecatingly, "and for the sake of my family, I should choose a new job with a better pay." I'll resign tomorrow. ”
Of course, he is a little reluctant, after all, being a good policeman is his life ideal.
"You will find that this is the best choice you have ever made in life, Mr. Fisborn." Qin Lang comforted him with a happy expression.
Of course he would have been very pleasant. Plus Lawrence. Fisborne, who has recruited Kelly. Johnson gave all the people on his list. It gave him a little sense of accomplishment.
However, Faithburn, immersed in the loss of farewell ideals, did not accept his comfort at all. "Perhaps, sir. But one thing is for sure, my colleagues at the police station will be very happy when I'm gone. ”
"Don't worry about them, Mr. Fisborne. When you have attained a higher social status than them, you can laugh at them if you want to. Qin Lang proudly declared. If it was him, he would have done it, but Fisborne was not him.
"I don't think I'll do that, sir. Actually, I've always understood them...... "After all, Mr. Fisborne is a man of integrity, but who knows what the future holds?" Everything is unpredictable.
So Qin Lang shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "Whatever you do, that's your freedom. Now, Mr. Fisborne, what do you think of my appointment of you as Head of Security? ”
It was an unexpected surprise, but Fisborne's attention was focused on another issue. "Safety? Isn't it the Ministry of Internal Affairs? ”
"The Security Service is a subordinate agency of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
As a graduate of Florida State University's College of Engineering and a member of a diamond smuggling organization, Qin Lang knew little about security and intelligence agencies. He knew the CIA, he knew the KGB, he knew about MI6, but he had absolutely no idea how they were fundamentally organized and operated.
He wanted to be helped by a more professional professional agent. But such a professional is hardly to be found in the United States, and his current status is not yet to the point where he can travel to Europe to recruit professional intelligence officers.
Therefore, he can only form the internal affairs department of Umbrella according to his own understanding.
For this institution, Qin Lang's requirements are not very high, he only needs it to be able to complete the most basic work. After all, no one can expect the security and intelligence services of an ordinary commercial company to do as well as their counterparts in a government or an international banking consortium.
But he demanded that it take on a variety of different tasks.
Qin Lang spent a few days on paper making a simple plan, the departments under the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the tasks they need to undertake include:
First, the security department, the company's internal security and counter-espionage work;
secondly, the Inspectorate, which monitors company employees and mercenaries;
Third, the Economic Division, which monitors the company's various economic activities and capital flows;
fourth, the Intelligence Division, which collects foreign intelligence;
Fifth, the Secret Service Department protects the personal safety of important members of the company.
Obviously, in terms of the scope of the work it undertakes, the Ministry of the Interior is not much different from some of the smaller government intelligence agencies, if not comprehensively. However, when the organizational structure and terms of reference of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were made public, Qin Lang did not tell the truth, and only admitted the existence of the Security Department, the Supervision Department, and the Secret Service.
Moreover, the main tasks of the Ombudsman were concealed.
On the surface, the Ombudsman was a product of the last mercenary rebellion, a military police-like organization that managed and punished mercenaries in order to prevent the next rebellion.
This is also the reason why Qin Lang announced to O'Connor and Yishui that he would set up an internal investigation department.
Qin Lang didn't want Rachel, O'Connor, Duncan, and Yi Shui to know that he had set up a secret police organization in the company, because they would realize that this department, which was entirely in his hands, might be used to spy on them. This can upset them and bring some bad negative effects.
Especially Rachel. If she realizes that he is sending someone to spy on her, she will definitely respond immediately. Either she will find a way to buy off the personnel of the Ombudsman, or she will find a way to set up a secret police organization of her own. But either way, it is not good for the development of the company.
And he also does not want the company's employees and mercenaries to know the truth. Americans can accept a police-like organization, but they will never accept a secret police organization that spies on them. Once they know the truth, a collective resignation may already be the best ending.
If they are unlucky enough, they will also file a lawsuit in court en masse. Considering the strong antipathy of the secret police in American society [Note: Considering that there will be a magical secretary of state like Stimson in the U.S. government who will dismiss the important intelligence department of the Navy on the grounds that "gentlemen don't read other people's letters", Qin Lang's worries are by no means groundless], no matter how rich he is, he will inevitably lose the case in the end.
Qin Lang could only try his best to hide the truth.
The same is true of the Economic Division. It may even be more hated than the Ombudsman, because it is reminiscent of another hated institution: the Department of Internal Revenue.
As for the Intelligence Service, which is in charge of foreign intelligence, its problems are more serious than those of the Ombudsman and the Economy. While successful companies have their own intelligence channels and departments in charge of their own affairs, no company likes to be used the same tricks against them.
As a result, business intelligence activities are carried out very secretly. If Umbrella or the competitors of the Great Viper Weapons Company knew that Qin Lang had openly set up an intelligence department, there was no doubt that an anti-unfair competition lawsuit would immediately befall him.
Then he had to go into exile.
Therefore, Qin Lang can only strictly abide by the secrets of the intelligence department, and cannot tell anyone the secrets. In his opinion, it is best - although it is almost impossible - that no one will ever be aware of its existence.
Of course, Qin Lang didn't need to worry about this matter now, because whether it was the Supervision Department, the Intelligence Department, or the Economic Department, they were all just empty shelves, not only did they not have department leaders, but they also did not have any staff members -- he could not find a talent who could be responsible for these secret work.
Including Lawrence. Including Fisborne, Qin Lang recruited only seven people in Los Angeles, six police officers and one IRS clerk. Although they are all talented and upright young people, they are also only suitable for working in the security service and the secret service.
They have no experience in covert surveillance and intelligence activities, and covert intelligence activities have historically not been suitable for honest people.
And more importantly, there are only seven people, even if they are all deployed in one department of the security department, it is quite insufficient, if they are dispersed, then except for the secret service - Qin Lang, Rachel, Elizabeth and O'Connor's bodyguards are now integrated into this department, and Duncan's bodyguards will be the same in the future - the other departments will fall into the embarrassing situation of only leaders, which will also make Qin Lang and Rachel feel dissatisfied.
Neither he nor she liked to see an employee of the company do nothing after being paid a mid-level executive salary.
And Rachel was already dissatisfied with Qin Lang's establishment of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"Of course you can find some people to be in charge of the company's security, or to manage the mercenaries militarily, Qin. But you don't need to create an interior ministry at all. This increases the administrative costs of the company. "Since there is a Ministry of Internal Affairs, of course there will be department heads, although Qin Lang can concurrently serve now, but he will always give up this position in the future.
And that means she's going to have to pay an extra senior executive!
And not just one department head, there may be one or even several deputy department heads in the future, and then their secretaries, as well as ordinary staff of the Ministry of Internal Affairs......
They all need her to pay their wages!
In addition to this, there are various expenses for daily work, electricity consumption of paper, pencils, other office supplies, lights and other equipment, and the company also needs to provide additional office space for department heads, deputy directors and staff...... Finally, coffee and water also cost money!
What a huge waste!
"We are building a commercial company, and we can't just add new departments like the federal government, Qin! This is a huge waste of the company's resources! "Rachel is really not satisfied.
This was the inevitable price of not explaining to her in detail the entire tasks of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Qin Lang could only accept this price completely and unreservedly, and answer her accusations in an almost perfunctory way. "These are necessary expenses, Rachel. You'll understand that later. ”
"Maybe, maybe not......" She shook her head, trying to get a thought out of her head, and walked away.
