Chapter 1107 - The benefits are good
It can be said that Hong Kong Island is a police city, with the highest police ratio among many cities in the world.
According to official figures, the Hong Kong Island Police Force is a force of 30,000 disciplined officers and 5,000 civilian personnel, and in addition to being responsible for local land and sea security and traffic enforcement, the Hong Kong Island Police are also responsible for patrolling the border with the mainland to prevent unauthorized people from entering and leaving Hong Kong Island.
In addition, the Marine Police on Hong Kong Island has about 150 different vessels, making it one of the largest marine police establishments in the world.
In addition to maintaining law and order and traffic order, the Hong Kong Island Police are also responsible for processing applications for associations, lion dances and assemblies.
In addition, the Force has a Political Department to monitor sensitive speech, and earlier the Force was also responsible for identity cards, re-entry permits and vehicle registration plates.
In fact, the total number of police officers on Hong Kong Island is much higher than the official figures.
This is also one of the reasons why in film and television productions, it is often seen that there are police patrolling the streets of Hong Kong Island at any time, because the proportion of police on Hong Kong Island in the total population is really high.
Lin Xiao is still more interested in the Hong Kong Island police, because when he used to watch TV dramas often, he was especially interested in the Hong Kong Island Police Flower, so this time he came to the Hong Kong Island Police Headquarters by fate, but he didn't have too much anger in his heart, but was more curious.
The original Hong Kong Island Police Force Headquarters was located at the junction of Hollywood Road and Wyndham Street, but although it was expanded several times, it was still unable to meet the needs of development, and after World War II, the Police Headquarters was relocated to Oriental Hang in Connaught Road.
In the 50s of the last century, the Hong Kong Island Government allocated new reclaimed land at Arsenal Street in Wan Chai for the construction of a new headquarters of the Hong Kong Police Force to replace the Central Police Station.
Today, the new main building of the Police Administration Building serves as a high-rise office building for the main units of the Police Headquarters.
"I heard that the police commissioner's license plate is the legendary number one?" Lin Xiao was still very interested in this matter, so he asked Lin Qingya, "Does the police commissioner usually live in the dormitory?" ”
"The former question is, the latter question is not." Lin Qingya was in a good mood at this time, "The Commissioner of Police has his own special residence, which is now located at 50 Majixian Gap Road on Hong Kong Island. ”
"It is said that the benefits and pay of your police officers are very good?" Lin Xiao continued to gossip.
"That's it, it's alright." Lin Qingya nodded and admitted, "After all, we are a disciplined force, and the work we engage in is relatively dangerous, so we should pay a little more." ”
After the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) on Hong Kong Island, the Force increased its monthly salary to reduce corruption.
At present, even the monthly salary of ordinary police officers with only Form 5 education is about 14,000 yuan, which is much higher than the salary of 6,000 to 8,000 yuan for ordinary Hong Kong office personnel who require the same education, and the monthly salary of inspectors is more than 20,000 yuan, and the maximum salary can reach 50,000 Hong Kong dollars.
"Can you ask, how much does a chief superintendent like you get paid?" Han Qi next to him asked.
"As for the basic salary, the Commissioner of Police is about 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, the deputy commissioner is 16 or 70,000 Hong Kong dollars, the senior assistant commissioner is 14 or 50,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the assistant commissioner is 12 or 30,000 Hong Kong dollars." Lin Qingya didn't hide it, "The chief superintendent of ours, that is, 100,000 to 110,000 Hong Kong dollars, is okay to say, and other benefits are also okay." ”
Lin Xiao calculated that if you want to buy a house in the city according to the monthly salary of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, it is still more difficult, after all, Hong Kong Island is really expensive, and the property price per square meter is almost 200,000 Hong Kong dollars.
In other words, even at an income level like Lin Qingya, if she doesn't eat or drink, she can only buy an area of six square meters a year, which is considered a high-income class.
"However, we police officers have housing benefits, including police department quarters, civil servants' housing benefits and other related housing benefits. There are also free medical and dental services, and the Government or the Hospital Authority provides free medical care, procedures and medication to police officers and their families. As if to promote her team, Lin Qingya introduced the various benefits of the Hong Kong Island Police to Lin Xiao and them, "We also have educational assistance and paid leave, and the foundation provides financial assistance to relevant personnel for their children to receive secondary and tertiary education, as well as recreational sports benefits, etc." ”
"What is recreation and sports welfare?" Lin Xiao didn't understand a little when he heard it, and he always felt that when Hong Kong Island people spoke, some words were more awkward, which was inconvenient for people to understand.
"Recreation and sports welfare is where we usually exercise or play, for example, the police clubs in Causeway Bay are for inspectors and above, and we usually go there to exercise." "In addition, there are two smaller centres in Queen's Hill in Fanling and Thao Wo Hang in Sai Kung that provide basic accommodation and recreational facilities, and the Force's holiday homes are located in various scenic spots on Hong Kong Island, including Cheung Chau, Lantau Island and Tai Po. ”
"In this way, being a police officer on Hong Kong Island is really a good career." When Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but nod his head, and then asked with a smile, "Do you still lack any deputy directors or something?" I'm really interested in this! Not to mention the salary, it doesn't seem to be risky. ”
Lin Qingya couldn't help but glance at Lin Xiao, and said in her heart that I am a stranger, specially recruited to the Special Affairs Division of the Hong Kong Island Police, and this is the position of Chief Superintendent, if you say the deputy director or something, it is estimated that it will not be possible in a short period of time, and it is really a bit outrageous that you want to be the deputy director as a mainlander.
But at this moment, they heard a voice and said with a smile, "If Lin Gongzi is willing to submit to our Hong Kong Island Police Headquarters, a deputy commissioner is really earned by us!" ”
"Director?!" When Lin Qingya heard this voice, she couldn't help but be taken aback.
Sure enough, the chief of the police force walked out with a smile, followed by two assistants.
"Hello Lin Gongzi." Director Zeng smiled and shook Lin Xiao's hand, "I haven't seen each other for more than half a year since the last time I said goodbye to the capital, I didn't expect to meet in this kind of scene, this is really fate." ”
"Director Zeng is polite, I'm a little unlucky this year, and I can't avoid some troubles, so I'm causing you trouble." Lin Xiao also smiled.
"When Lin Gongzi said that, he slapped me in the face." Director Zeng said, "The incident happened in my jurisdiction, and there was such a big problem, and I, the police commissioner, have done a little incompetent, and I hope you will understand." ”
"Actually, there's nothing, anyway, it's not us who suffers." Lin Xiao said with a smile.
Lin Qingya was a little dumbfounded on the side, just now Lin Xiao said that Director Zeng of the Police Department had visited their house or something, Lin Qingya was still a little suspicious at that time, at this time, seeing the scene of Lin Xiao and Director Zeng talking happily, it was naturally clear that Lin Xiao was not talking nonsense just now, but there was indeed such a relationship in it.
Especially Lin Qingya noticed that when Director Zeng met Lin Xiao, he was full of enthusiasm, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he had met his boss, on the contrary, Lin Xiao's attitude was relatively peaceful, just like meeting an ordinary friend, without any pressure.
This can only show that Lin Xiao's status is indeed very high, enough to make the number one person in the Hong Kong Island police like Director Zeng feel very important, if not, there is really no need for Director Zeng to be so enthusiastic with him, even if Li Chaoren comes, there is no need to be so.
"These children of wealthy families in the mainland have really been very popular on Hong Kong Island in recent years!" Lin Qingya couldn't help muttering to herself.
Lin Qingya's muttering is not unreasonable, in fact, since the handover, the political and police circles on Hong Kong Island have been greatly influenced by the mainland, and if you want to do a more stable job in this position, the support of the central government is very important.
Just like the special affairs department managed by Lin Qingya, there are often some troubles that cannot be handled, and at this time, it is necessary to seek support from the central government, so Lin Qingya will have an intersection with Han Ya's secret service, which is the foundation laid at that time.
Without the strong support of the central government, they will indeed have a headache or even helplessness when dealing with some things, after all, there are too many people in the world who are not easy to mess with, and these people always like to cause trouble.
With the strength of the Special Affairs Bureau of the Hong Kong Island Police Headquarters, it is beyond our power to deal with these people.
"Let's go inside and talk." Director Zeng greeted Concubine Han and Han Qi again, and then welcomed a few of them into the building, and then walked all the way to the director's office.
"I didn't expect you to be very good here on Hong Kong Island." Taking advantage of this opportunity, Han Qi whispered to Lin Xiao.
"There's nothing left, it's just that everyone is giving face." Lin Xiao replied very calmly, "In fact, I am in the United Kingdom, the United States or something, I also mix well, the Queen of England and the President of the United States also want to give me some face, and other big countries are basically the same." ”
"Just blow it." Lin Qingya, who was next to her, heard it clearly, and couldn't help but pout.
"It's really not blowing." Lin Xiao said with a smile.
In fact, only in terms of Lin Xiao's current status in the rivers and lakes, and with the super battery manufacturing technology he has mastered, it is very easy for him to get along in any country, so what he said that is popular in all countries is not something that he said casually.
"Young Master Lin, everyone, let's sit casually." After Director Zeng led everyone into the office, he said politely.
