Chapter 609 Information Division
The existence of Kellermen has made the citizens of the Federation and even the entire empire believe that war is a thing of the past, and lo and behold, even the merchants of the Federation came to the core of the country to open such a hotel, does it mean that the shadow of war has become farther and farther away, and the bell of peace and freedom has been ringing?
This merchant from the Federation is called Kaile, so this hotel is called Kaile Gate, and at the same time, it seems to confirm the fruits of the Empire's victory in the Great Patriotic War of the North and South?
In short, Mr. Keller has become a celebrity in the Empire and the Commonwealth, and has held a number of politically charged positions, such as "advisor". The high-ranking officials of both the Empire and the Federation attached great importance to Mr. Keller, precisely because his actions put a clear end to the military confrontation that was likely to last for a long time, and both sides regarded him as a messenger of peace, and gave him so many conveniences that business was no longer Mr. Keller's main job.
His main job, of course, is to be a broker.
Or that it would be an insult to him to be a broker by a socialite like him, and it would be much better to use the word "messenger".
"Sir, would you rather dine or entertain?"
As soon as he stepped on the marble floor inside the gate of the Kaile Gate, a welcoming lady immediately greeted him, and he led Du Lin inside, and asked Du Lin the main purpose of his visit to the Kaile Gate. Durin then reported Kevin's name, but there was a slight surprise, because Kevin only reported two people when he registered the number of diners, and now there are three people. In order to avoid the appearance of this guest later and disturb the meal of others, the restaurant needs to make a confirmation.
After waiting for about two minutes, Kevin walked out of the elevator. He carried a cane in his hand, and although he tried to make it look like a civilized stick as much as he could, the somewhat stumbling way still betrayed the true use of the fine stick in his hand.
"I thought you would contact me tomorrow, you came just in time, I have a friend to introduce to you. Kevin hugged Duhrin very warmly, then patted his arm, turned around and walked towards the elevator with him, and whispered: "This time I have invited the head of a new department of the Ministry of Justice, thanks to the civil ID system you have in Otis City, the Ministry of Justice considers it very important, and has drawn up a proposal to be submitted to the Imperial Assembly for a vote in March." β
From the current situation, it seemed unlikely that there would be any resistance, and Maggs nodded in agreement, and the old party was able to breathe and ensure that there would be no surprises in the Imperial Diet. Therefore, the idea within the Ministry of Justice is to establish the content of the departmental framework first, and then enter the work as soon as the proposal is passed and listed. This new department is called the 'Imperial Citizen Information Division', and it will manage the identity information of all citizens throughout the Empire, and to a certain extent, it will be a department that seems to be useless, but absolutely important!"
The two of them walked as they talked, and when they reached the waiting area, the hotel waiter had already blocked the elevator for them and opened the elevator door, and the two stopped talking.
The decoration of the hotel is very luxurious, from the inside to the outside there is a noble atmosphere, it looks very public, but it will not make people hate this place.
The place to dine was on the third floor of the hotel, and the moment the elevator doors opened, Doohrin understood why the Keller Gate Hotel was one of the best hotels in the imperial capital.
He didn't know exactly how much area there was on the third floor of the whole hotel, but he could count how many tables there were, not that the restaurant on the third floor was small, on the contrary, the area here was very large. However, the distance between each table and each table is very open, at least fifteen meters. Durin also noticed that some tables had a circle of screens around them, ensuring the privacy of the diners inside, and that even a little louder could not be heard by the people at the next table.
The entire third floor was lit up by huge crystal chandeliers, and Kevin beckoned Durin to walk towards the table they had booked. It was a square table, and Durin didn't look crowded, and a lady who looked to be thirty-seven or eighteen years old had already stood up, looking at Kevin and Durin with a smile on her face.
"This beautiful lady is Nomira, who will be the head of the information department, responsible for the information approval of citizens throughout the country every two years. He smiled and nodded at Nomila, then continued, "This is my good friend, Mr. Doolin. You may not be familiar with him, but I think you've heard of the Mayor of Otis City, Dulin, this gentleman. β
Nomira took the initiative to reach out and shake Durin's hand, which made Dulin slightly surprised, but didn't show it, "It's a very lucky thing to have the honor of knowing a young talent like Mr. Durin, everyone is discussing when you will come back and whether it will bring us new surprises!"
"Thank you, I'm sure that day won't be far away!", Durin replied very politely, and then said two more polite words before the three of them sat down separately.
Nomira was also a member of the New Party, and according to the perception that working in the political heart of the empire like the imperial capital, and being the main prefect of a subordinate branch under the vertical management of the Ministry of Justice, she should be a great figure. There may be nothing wrong with saying this, but it depends on who you compare it to. If she was just compared to the mayor of a remote city, Nomira had enough confidence to stand still and let Durin say hello to her first. But Dulin is different, he not only served as the mayor of the D.C., but is also said to have a very good personal relationship with Harry and Maggs.
This made Nomila not have the capital to stand still, and everyone could see that after Duhrin was removed from his post this time, he did not even lower the rank of the party, and even raised the rank of the party by one level, which made the party people realize that DΓΌhrin was removed from office may have an insider, and of course it is also possible that Maggs is biased against him. Whatever the reason, there is no escaping the end result - Durin will definitely return to the new party and become an important figure in the party, and at his current party level, he is enough to be the mayor of any city, even the governor of a remote area!
In the face of an upstart in the party who has such energy and skill, why does Nomila have the courage to stand still?
After sitting down, we talked for a while, maybe Nomira and Durin met for the first time, so the topic was not very deep, and Nomira quit and prepared to go home before nine o'clock. Kevin paid the bill and watched with Durin get her in the car and leave, and then the two brothers looked at each other and got into the car with a smile.
After getting into the car, both of them lit a cigarette, Kevin took a few puffs and then glanced at the driver, and said after Dulin nodded: "This information department will be a very powerful department in the future, think about it, if you want to know the information of any person, you only need a phone call, you can know where this person lives during this time, who he lives with, what job he is doing, and how much he earns." We can even access their bills through the central bank or other banks, which can keep almost everyone firmly in the hands of the authorities. β
"At present, many people do not see the benefits of the information department, and regard this department as a cold bench, but I believe that when the information department develops, it will definitely surprise this group of people. Regardless of whether you have a relationship with Nomila in the future, sell it first. β
Durin nodded, but gave a different opinion, "Do you want the information collectors to collect your personal privacy?"
One question made Kevin's entire facial expression change from vivid to stiff, his eyes seemed to be blurred, he became out of focus, and he immediately fell into silence. It wasn't until the cigarette butt burned his fingers that he shook as if frightened, then lifted his foot and stepped back and forth on the floor of the car a few times. There is no doubt that Dulin's words made him realize that he had made a wrong judgment, no wonder that not many people in the Ministry of Justice paid attention to a department with such advantages, and some people even said that Nomila must have offended someone before he would be assigned to the information department in charge.
Kevin had laughed at these people in his heart before, and it was just that the Information Department had the information of all the citizens of the entire empire, and it was a very powerful department. If you add a little bit of power, this department will become the most important and powerful department of the Ministry of Justice. But Durin's words woke him up, if someone wanted to collect his private information, he would definitely pick up the hardcover version of the Imperial Codex and smash it on that person's head.
Those capitalists, officials, politicians, celebrities...... As well as all the celebrities living in the spotlight, the elite of high society, the most important group of people in this empire are probably also the most reluctant to expose their privacy. Their presence will be a huge obstacle to the work of the Information Service, and if these people cannot be solved, there is no need for the whole society to accept the Information Service.
It seemed that he was still too young politically and thought too little, he sighed and shook his head, and lit another cigarette, "I'm curious, how did your head grow, how could you be smarter than me?"
Du Lin said with a smile: "This is the best compliment I have heard so far this year, you don't have to be too polite!"
He opened the window and threw the cigarette butt out, and when he turned around, the wind outside the window blew his hair, and his eyes were exceptionally bright in the dark compartment, "Tell me about my concerns, how is your work going now?"
Kevin became very lazy after the blow, and he leaned back on the back seat of the car and tilted his head and replied weakly, "What else? The young people hate me, and the old men are wary of me, and I am not very good." β
