507 New Director
"I support Ho Sir's work, and I support the restructuring of the police force."
Kun Xian took the lead in saying: "Since the new system has been adopted to elect the commissioner, I will no longer hold the post of commissioner, and after the new commissioner of police is elected, I am willing to take the initiative to retire and cooperate with the handover of the police force." ”
"Thank you, sir."
He Sir's attitude towards Kunxian was not surprising.
Skell also nodded: "He Sir's opinion is very reasonable, but the constitutional committee has one person, one vote, how to define the qualifications of the new director of the candidacy?" ”
"Is it at the director level who is eligible to run for election, or is it at the constitutional committee level?"
If all of them are eligible to run for election at the division level, there will be more than 10 candidates, and if they are at the level of a constitutional commissioner, there are currently more than 80 candidates, and in the future there may be as many as 200 candidates.
"As a disciplined force, the Force is an action-oriented force, and the person in charge of the police is elected in an open, just and fair manner. It is also necessary to introduce more people to monitor the change of power in the Force, so as not to undermine the atmosphere of the Force because of the electoral system. ”
"If the candidacy is delegated to the director level, all the work of the senior level in the future will be based on votes and political performance, and no one will think about the future social development and make long-term plans. Therefore, I propose that the candidacy be fixed at the Deputy Commissioner level, and that only two Deputy Commissioners be allowed to participate in the election. ”
Kunxian, Skemin, and Ge Bai all changed their expressions, each thinking about it.
There is a saying that big things will be held in small meetings, and small things will be held.
The final decision on many matters was reached in private talks with a few people, and the three of them had already guessed that Ho Sir was going to elect a new commissioner, completely updated the power structure of the police force, and even thought that Ho Sir might personally participate in the election.
became the first Chinese director, the first commander of the disciplined forces born through institutional elections, but he didn't expect He Sir to personally set a hurdle and set the rank at the deputy director of operations.
Then the next governor must be Ge Bai!
"He sir, if the qualifications for the election are set at the level of deputy director, I am afraid that there is not much difference from the previous appointment." Skeming knew that he had no chance to take the position, so he didn't make up his mind, but said very seriously: "After all, the Hong Kong government appointed a new commissioner before, and it also had to consider the resume, prestige, and actual control ability of the police force. ”
"As a disciplined force, the police force has always attached great importance to the prestige of its officers, and if they do not have a convincing resume, the officers below will not be convinced."
Ho Ting-yin replied with a smile: "The creation of power is from the bottom up, but the delegation of power is from the top to the bottom. ”
"And although what you said is true, every governor must be good enough to take charge of the overall situation, otherwise why should he be under his command? In fact, every system wants to elect competent and disciplined officials, and the person can still be the same person, but who has the power to appoint is the most important. ”
"It is only two years for a person to do a term, and it is not a big problem to use the wrong person for two years, and the power to appoint is ten or fifty years."
"I see."
Scamin sighed, understanding that restructuring is not a question of who appoints and who does not appoint, but who appoints and who obeys the appointment. Moreover, the Chinese faction of the police force has already taken power and holds the power of appointment, and the future power is 100% in the hands of the Chinese faction.
In order to wrest power from the Chinese faction, it was only necessary to defeat the Chinese representatives, but in the future, it was necessary to defeat a whole system, starting with amending the law. This is simply exponentially more difficult, and it is almost impossible to ask.
At least, there was no hope of doing so for the last twenty-five years of the British lease.
"That's amazing."
He had to admire He Sir's political methods.
He Dingxian only implements the thinking of being ruthless and desperate, and the longer he is mixed in the political arena, the more he can capture the key points of politics. Understand that fighting against one within the system is only the lowest level, and fighting against the system is only the middle level, and using the system to fight is the highest level.
When he had the opportunity, he always stormed the system, revised the system, and attacked the political opponents. In the eyes of a group of ghostly bureaucrats, they are naturally murderous, sharp, and really closed-minded. Kun Xian answered in a timely manner: "Then the next police commissioner was born between Ge sir and Si sir. ”
"Ho sir."
"Who do you think has a better chance?"
His eyes were aimed at He Sir.
Before Scamin could speak, he immediately said: "My ability is not enough to take the position of director, and I will voluntarily give up the election." ”
"Okay."
He Dingxian nodded happily and said with a smile: "I also support Sir Ge even more." ”
"Huh?"
Ge Bai was still immersed in the last round of discussions, his heart was pounding, and he secretly wondered if the next director should be himself, right? Unexpectedly, He Sir expressed his position on the spot and appointed him as the next director with a fixed attitude.
With the appeal of He Sir in the police force today, a sentence can be unanimously approved by the constitutional committee, and opening up to support it is tantamount to being elected.
"Huh?"
He breathed a sigh of relief, only then came back to his senses, his eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "Thank you Sir He for your support, I will definitely serve the police force well, protect the social order on Hong Kong Island, and the safety of all citizens' lives and property." ”
"Sit sit, sit sit."
He Dingxian waved his hand and hurriedly asked Ge Bai to sit down, Ge Bai just flew up from the chair, his hands were already raised and ready to salute, and when he heard the words, he sat down with his knees very obedient, sitting very upright.
"There is at least more than half a year before the first police commissioner election, and within half a year, the police force needs to complete departmental restructuring and internal reform, and you will take the lead in related work, so as to better accumulate political heritage."
"Sir, you must cooperate seriously."
Skell straightened his back and said solemnly, "Yes, sir!" ”
He Dingxian did not run for the new director election, but he was not pure-hearted, but out of emotion, he let Ge Bai sit for a term and enjoy it. The main reason is that they do not want to upset the power class, and if the scope of the candidacy is extended to senior assistant directors, then the future senior assistant directors are likely to have their own faction.
Every person who is qualified to be in a position of power is essentially qualified to form a political force.
He didn't want to sit in the position of director for a few terms, and the deputy director and senior assistant director of the senior class under his command were eyeing each other and wanted to take the position. At that time, the police force will become like a club, engaging in black money and ballot politics for a position.
If there is a clear rank now, don't even think about running for election if you don't reach the deputy director, obediently do the thing at hand, and take it as your duty to obey the orders of your superiors.
Only in this way can the police force continue the tradition of disciplined forces and burst into combat effectiveness, and the restructuring must be changed for the better, and it is impossible to go back again and again. In terms of what sir's current influence, it doesn't matter if one term is one later or one early, it is more important to lay a good foundation than to rush to the top.
"Sir Ge, Si sir, the two of you will sort out a plan as soon as possible, if it is done well, Sir Sir can continue to cooperate with Sir Ge next year." Ho Ting-yin plans to use Scamming for another term, and Skeemin will cooperate with the police force to clear out the colonialists.
In the future, there will only be one faction in the police force, and that is the Chinese forces! The Chinese can be divided into different factions, which is a natural development trend, but the ghosts either integrate or get out, there is no second choice.
Even the pro-China faction that waits for the price will no longer exist, and every British police officer can only enjoy the same treatment as a Chinese police officer, and it will even be much more difficult to mix than a Chinese police officer in the future, which is the change of the times and affects everyone.
Of course, this process is at least two or three years, and at most five years, and the continued appointment of Scamming is not to be obedient, but to see that he has witnessed the rise of the Chinese, and he will no longer have unrealistic illusions.
When Skell saw that there was still a chance to stay in office next year, he was also immediately refreshed, and replied solemnly: "Please rest assured, Sir He." ”
"We'll do it as soon as possible." Ge Bai turned his head and glanced at Skeming, his eyes had changed from hostile to scrutinizing, and they actually knew something about He Sir's restructuring ideas, and then He Sir made some communication, concretizing the suggestion, and considering the details, it was naturally the work of the two chiefs.
Ho Sir's restructuring plan is also very simple, except for the commissioner, who was elected, the rest are all copied from the Hong Kong Island Police Force in later generations. Because, in the future, the Hong Kong police are actually a very mature force, as long as they ensure that the main body of power is fine, the system can be copied.
"As for the rewards and punishments of the police force, I have made a list, and Sir Kunxian can refer to it."
He Dingxian took out a document on the desktop and handed it to Kun Xian in front of him, Kun Xian took the document and said with a smile: "Thank you Sir He, I will definitely refer to your opinions." ”
Everyone here knew that Kun Xian didn't even need to read this document, because he didn't even have the authority to change a single word.
He Dingxian said politely: "The commendation order can be issued as soon as possible, but the award and promotion need to wait for the end of the restructuring and be handled according to the departmental level of the new system." ”
"No problem at all."
Kun Xian readily agreed.
"Okay, I also invited a few disciplined officers to have dinner together in the afternoon, and I'll go first." When He Dingxian saw that he had finished talking, he took the initiative to get up and say goodbye, Ge Bai and Skeemin also left together, leaving Kunxian alone looking out the window in a daze.
Obviously, the scenery of Hong Kong Island is still the same, and the furnishings in the office have not changed, but the whole city has changed.
In addition to the police force, the most exaggerated restructuring of the ICAC is the ICAC, after the reorganization of the entire ICAC, a total of 21 police officers were dealt with, as many as 100 were injured, and more than 200 people were suspended from their duties pending orders from the governor.
Due to the clear division of functions and powers in the rest of the troops, there are not many places that need to be restructured, and apart from the fact that they are also changed to internal elections, the change of system is not obvious. However, with the internal campaign decree in effect, it was only a matter of time before the Chinese took control of all the disciplined forces.
In the future, Ho Ting-yin is fully capable of suppressing other disciplined force commanders as a Chinese power talker, and playing the role of an arbiter. The commanders of the disciplined services can't do anything without selling face, but it is almost impossible to fully control the other disciplined forces. Because, the political forces that sprouted within the Chinese could not be closely united around He Dingxian in the absence of external enemies. At most, the Force is the helmsman of the disciplined forces, while the officers of the Customs and Excise Department, the Corrections Department and other forces will play the role of the chief of the incense.
The second chapter will be updated tomorrow, and the two days of going out to run errands will cost a lot of time on the road, but the amount of updates will remain the same.
