Riverside police

In a blink of an eye, it is already the end of March.

After taking office for nearly a month, Wu Guoqun has become accustomed to life in Binjiang.

At first, I thought that Han Yu would not come back after being transferred. After all, the superiors require younger cadres. Han Yu is very young, has academic qualifications, and even has qualifications that many old comrades do not have. It is normal for him to work in the superior organs. It is just around the corner to be promoted to the rank of director or even deputy director.

Unexpectedly, yesterday afternoon, an old friend from Hanwu called and said that five people in the Changhang Public Security System were promoted to the third-level police inspector a few days ago, including Han Yu who went to the police academy to teach.

Although Han Yu is different from the other four, he was promoted to the third-level professional and technical police inspector this time, but thinking that the bureau has been slow to appoint a director for the Binjiang Branch, it is obvious that the superiors’ promotion of Han Yu to the professional and technical police rank is just a transition, and it will not be long before he will be allowed to come back to be the top leader.

I originally thought that since there is no director for the time being, I might have a chance after I get familiar with the situation of the branch, but now it seems that there is no hope.

Although he felt a little disappointed, he had to pretend that nothing had happened and even put on a smile.

Because his wife came to Binjiang yesterday, Chen Zikun, Ding Shuguang and Lao Dong insisted on hosting a welcome party for her. If it was just a welcome party, it would be fine, but they actually invited Han Yu's lover Han Xiangning, and their lovers always followed Han Xiangning's lead, making Han Xiangning look like the "first lady" of the Binjiang Branch.

After accompanying his wife to the welcome banquet and returning to the dormitory, Wu Guoqun became more and more depressed. He took off his coat and muttered, "Han Yu hasn't been transferred back yet, and they are already circling around Han Yu's wife. Even if they want to flatter and show their courtesy, they don't need to be so anxious!"

His wife Luo Xiulian didn't feel neglected. Instead, she enjoyed today's dinner very much. After all, this was her first time in Binjiang, and she would live in Binjiang for at least four or five years. She was unfamiliar with the place, so who wouldn't want to have a few people to talk to?

Luo Xiulian thought the old man was overthinking, and smiled as she made the bed: "Han Xiangning is a leader. Director Chen's wife said she was also a member of the Standing Committee and deputy mayor of Changzhou City. Besides, she doesn't put on airs at night. If you want to talk about putting on airs, you've seen Zeng Suqin in our unit before. She didn't hold a high position, but she was very arrogant. She usually didn't look at people straight in the eye in the unit."

"I'm talking about Chen Zikun and Ding Shuguang."

"Director Chen, Director Ding and Political Commissar Dong look very kind. Old Wu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you need to change your bad temper. Change, get along well with your colleagues, don't always dislike him and dislike you!"

"What do you know?"

"I don't know anything, I just know that few of your former leaders and colleagues dislike you!"

"What are you talking about?" Wu Guoqun was unhappy, took out a cigarette and said angrily: "You can't be fooled by their appearance, and don't think that Chen Zikun is relatively young and seems to have courage, in fact, they are just a bunch of mediocre officials who are just sitting in their positions and eating for free!"

"How can you say that about others!" Luo Xiulian said unhappily. "I say they are lazy and mediocre officials, and I have a basis for that."

Wu Guoqun lit a cigarette and said bitterly: "You won't believe it if I tell you that the Binjiang Branch lacks a deputy political commissar and five deputy division-level instructors, and even more regular and deputy section chiefs, and these positions have been vacant for several years! It is said that leaders who don't consider their subordinates are not good leaders, but they are the opposite. They don't care about the lives of others after they get ashore, and always use the excuse of insufficient grassroots police force to not promote them."

Luo Xiulian retired from the system and knew very well how hated it was to have a position but not promote subordinates. He asked doubtfully: "Is it true?"

"Absolutely true."

Among people of the same age, Wu Guoqun's career can be described as bumpy. He can empathize with those police officers who meet the promotion conditions but have not been promoted. He knocked the ash of his cigarette and said with great sorrow: "What they do will affect the work enthusiasm of their comrades in a big way, and will ruin their future in a small way. Think about it, how many five years can a person have? Now there is an age limit for the promotion of cadres. Can they afford to delay and wait?"

My wife has presided over the work of the Propaganda Department three times, and failed to get promoted three times. These experiences are his eternal pain. It is normal for him to be angry when he sees others encounter the same situation now.

Luo Xiulian reacted, was silent for a moment and said: "Why are they like this, Lao Wu, you are now the political commissar of the branch, you can mention this to them."

"It's useless to mention it."

"You are the deputy secretary of the branch party committee, you have a say in this issue, how can it be useless if you raise it? Besides, you are doing this for work, not for yourself."

"They colluded and said that cadres must be adjusted, but now is not the time."

"Then when will it be?"

"They said that the adjustment of cadres must wait for the new director to take office, saying that if they adjust now, they will have to adjust again when the new director takes office, and then it will appear that the branch is in the selection of cadres. They are not serious in their promotion and appointment. "

"They have some truth in saying that. After all, which new leader will not adjust the cadres when he takes office, and which new leader will not promote a few of his own people when he takes office. "

"What era is it now? Are they still doing the same old thing of "a new emperor, a new minister?" Wu Guoqun asked back, and then said: "Besides, if they really wanted to, so many deputy director, section chief and deputy section chief positions would not be vacant today. Leaving the positions vacant and always hanging the people below, so that people can see but not touch, such people are the most hateful!"

The superiors have been slow to appoint a new director, and the current branch party committee team is mostly "localists". My wife is full of confidence and wants to do something practical, but she is alone.

The more Luo Xiulian thought about it, the more upset she felt. She walked over to make him a cup of tea and advised him, "Old Wu, justice is in the hearts of the people. You have argued for your comrades, and they must know what's going on. Although we can't change anything, we have a clear conscience."

"That's all we can think of now."

In the past month, Wu Guoqun has visited various detachments and police stations for research. Whenever he has time, he talks to police officers and assistant police officers, and even visited several retired police officers from the branch.

When his wife said that justice is in the hearts of the people, Wu Guoqun suddenly remembered something. He leaned over to pick up his phone to check the time, then opened the phone book and found a phone number to call.

Luo Xiulian asked curiously, "Who are you calling so late?"

"A literary friend." Wu Guoqun sat down at the desk, opened his briefcase and took out his notebook. While flipping through it, he held the phone tightly and smiled, "Teacher Tong, I'm Wu Guoqun. Did I disturb your rest by calling you so late?"

Although he didn't do very well in the unit, he was doing very well in the local area, even better than in Hanwu!

Wu Guoqun wanted to let his wife know about his connections in Binjiang, so he put down his phone and pressed the hands-free button without waiting for her to speak.

"Hello, Chairman Wu. I just came back from a walk and didn't rest. Chairman Wu, why did you think of calling me?"

"Teacher Tong, I'm sorry to call you so late. I want to ask you for a favor."

"Chairman Wu, just say it directly. It's not a favor. As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it as my own business."

"There is an auxiliary police officer in our branch. He used to be a soldier. His hometown is in a township in Gaoru. He came to work in our branch through recruitment. He has no house in Binjiang. He and his wife are registered in their hometown. His wife also works in Binjiang. The child has always been taken care of by his parents in his hometown."

Wu Guoqun put out his cigarette butt and continued: "The child is now in the senior class of kindergarten and will be in the first grade in the second half of the year. His parents are not in good health. He and his wife want to bring the child to Binjiang to go to school. I asked around and found that this matter is more difficult, so I thought of you first. I wonder if you can help."

"The child's Dad works in your branch?"

"Yes, he has worked in our branch for several years and has a very good performance."

"Where is the child's mother?"

"She works as a cashier in Wenfeng Supermarket."

"The household registration is not in the city, and there is no house in Binjiang. This matter is indeed more troublesome. Chairman Wu, how about this, you can help to issue a certificate in the name of your branch, and let the child's father bring his ID card, household registration booklet and the child's birth certificate to the school to find me tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I will help him find our bureau leaders. Special cases will be treated specially. I think it should not be a big problem."

"That's it."

"Chairman Wu, what is our relationship? It's really not a matter of asking for a favor."

"Teacher Tong, if you help me, I won't ask Qian, the Standing Committee, because it's a bit inappropriate to alarm the Standing Committee for this matter."

"I understand, leave it to me."

Although the old man is a senior police officer in a white shirt, he can't even talk to the street secretary in Hanwu Lian, let alone the Standing Committee.

Luo Xiulian was stunned and couldn't believe what she saw.

Wu Guoqun smiled proudly, and in front of his wife, he called Xiao Sun, the assistant police officer of Binjiang Police Station, to explain the situation. Then he called Minister Xu of the Propaganda Department of Gangzha District Committee.

"Commissioner Xu, I am Wu Guoqun from Changhang Branch. Hahaha, I hope I didn't disturb your rest. That's good. Commissioner Xu, I am embarrassed to talk to you, but I have no other choice but to talk to you... The thing is, there is a policeman named Lu Renwei in our branch who has just been transferred from Dongqi Police Station to the Criminal Investigation Brigade. He used to be a public security policeman, but because he has a set of methods to handle cases, he was transferred back to do criminal investigation.

But he has been working in Dongqi since he was assigned to our branch by the police academy. He also met his girlfriend in Dongqi and got married last year. Now he has been transferred to the urban area, and his wife works in Dongqi. Xiao Renwei is a policeman in our branch. A couple can't always live apart, so I'd like to ask you to help me see if his wife can be transferred to your district. "

"Political Commissar Wu, where does his wife work?"

"In the Dongqi Industrial and Commercial Bureau."

Wu Guoqun looked back at his wife and said with a beaming face: "Commissioner Xu, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I, the political commissar, am here to help grassroots police officers solve their worries. Now that the police are in trouble, I can only shamelessly ask you leaders for help."

Minister Xu couldn't say how familiar he was with the political commissar of the Changhang Branch. He had only met twice and had dinner with them once before.

The first time was when the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles organized artists from the city to come to the district for a field trip. Chairman Jiang of the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles led the team in person. As the Minister of Propaganda, he had to receive them in person.

Among the members of the field trip, Political Commissar Wu of the Changhang Public Security Branch had the same administrative level as Chairman Jiang of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles. He sat in the main seat during the symposium and the same during the meal. I was quite impressed.

The second time was on the third day after the field trip ended. Political Commissar Wu actually came to the door in person and gave him a calligraphy.

Anyway, since he was a director and a senior police officer in a white shirt, Minister Xu was really flattered. He didn't expect that within a week after receiving the letter, Political Commissar Wu would call him to ask for help.

Minister Xu wanted to refuse, but he didn't know how to start. Wu Guoqun changed the subject: "Commissioner Xu, there is one more thing. The city will hold a symposium on literature and art tomorrow afternoon. Chairman Jiang said that Secretary Chen, Commissioner Lu, and Mayor Liu, who is in charge of culture, will attend. You must have been notified of such an important meeting. Can you give me a chance to have dinner together after the meeting?"

They are both artists, but those with administrative ranks are different from those without administrative ranks.

For example, Political Commissar Wu on the other end of the phone is both a division-level cadre and an artist. Although he has just come to work in Binjiang not long ago, he has participated in many activities in the literary and art circles. Every time I participate, city leaders will treat me differently. During general meetings, arrange for him to sit on the rostrum, for small meetings, arrange for him to sit next to the leader, and the same goes for meals.

It is said that the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles will soon co-opt him as a non-resident vice-chairman and vice-chairman of the Writers Association, and the Development Zone Management Committee also plans to ask him to serve as chairman of the Development Zone Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

Anyone who can speak to the city leaders cannot take it seriously!

Standing Committee Member Xu weighed it up and said with a smile: "I will also attend tomorrow's meeting. I received the notice yesterday. As for eating, there is no need. Political Commissar Wu, as I reported to you last time, as the Propaganda Minister, I not only have to deal with propaganda , is also in charge of science, education, culture and health, and even has the task of attracting investment. I have to receive two businessmen tomorrow night, so I really don’t have time.”

"Then about the reassignment of police officer Xiao Lu from our branch..."

"Political Commissar Wu, if not, please send me his lover's name and basic information first, and I will help you find out tomorrow. I am not in charge of industrial, commercial and taxation, so I have to ask first."

"Okay, please."

…

At the same time, Han Xiangning, who had just returned home from dinner, was also calling his junior students in Hanwu. In the evening, I just took over the relationship with Wu Guoqun's lover, and the two naturally talked about Wu Guoqun.

"San'er, Political Commissar Wu is quite interesting. You may really judge a gentleman with a villain's heart."

"What's the point?"

Han Xiangning was lying on the bed, holding the phone and smiling: "As you said before, he really wanted to do things, and he actually accomplished several things."

Han Yu subconsciously asked: "What was accomplished?"

"I help your branch police and even the police assist you to solve problems, and also find ways to help retired old comrades solve their worries." Han Xiangning became more and more interesting as he thought about it, and smiled: "You just recommended him to the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles before, but you didn't expect him to follow you soon. Chairman Jiang became a good friend and participated in the activities of the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles every three days. Not only did he meet many people and make many friends, but he also made friends with many district and county leaders.”

"Then what?" Han Yu asked curiously.

"He is not a big leader in Hanwu, but he is a big official in Binjiang. Everyone likes to play with capable people, even some district and county standing committee members. The Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles regards him as a signboard. Ask him to sit on the rostrum during a meeting. If the leader of the public security agency in a white shirt sits there, the standard of the meeting will be improved a lot. "

Han Xiangning smiled and continued: "What's even more rare is that he has no airs, can chat with leaders, and can hang out with those writers and artists, and most of those writers and artists come from the science, education, culture and health system. Political Commissar Dong said that as of yesterday , he has already helped your branch solve the enrollment and transfer problems for the children of three policemen and co-ops through his newly established contacts.

The Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles either organize cultural activities or help relevant units organize cultural evening parties and other activities. Although he is not the vice chairman of the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles now, people give him face, and they will arrange people for him whenever there are cultural evenings and other activities. Send tickets.

We are not interested in these parties, but the police in the branch are interested. Even if the police are not interested, the police's relatives will be interested. Many police officers don't like to watch it themselves, but want to take their children to experience the atmosphere. Political Commissar Wu gave them invoices, and sometimes he would ask for them from the Propaganda Department and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles if the tickets were not enough! "

Han Yu was surprised and couldn't help but smile: "This is a good thing."

Han Xiangning felt that the junior student was a little too cautious before, so he thought about it and laughed: "During dinner in the evening, he said that he was very familiar with the leader of the Propaganda Department of the Sigang County Party Committee, and he had made an agreement with them, and planned to wait for a few days before he would be busy organizing the branch. The policemen took turns going to Sigang to visit the Seven Wars and Seven Victories Memorial Hall. Not only did they not have to spend money on tickets, they would also arrange for people to explain it and even take care of the food.”

"Political Commissar Wu can do it. He has a way of building relationships."

"He also established a relationship with the Women's Federation and the Youth League Committee. Before Women's Day, he recommended Ge Xiaoqian to the Women's Federation. Although he was not rated as the March 8th Red Flag Bearer in the city, he also received a consolation prize."

"What consolation prize?"

"Binjiang City's most outstanding individual with meritorious service."

There are such selections every year in the city, but people from the Changhang Branch will not be selected. After all, they have no affiliation.

Han Yu did not expect that Comrade Wu would open up the situation within a few days of going to Binjiang. He was secretly lamenting that he underestimated the heroes of the world. Han Xiangning smiled again and said: "It will be the May 4th Youth Day soon. Political Commissar Wu has made an agreement with the Youth League Committee. The selection process will give your branch a quota.”

"May 4th Youth Medal?"

"Um."

"Okay, why didn't Political Commissar Dong think of this before?"

"The political commissar Dong knows a few people, and even if he wants to recommend them, he will not give you a review. During the May Fourth Youth Day, the Youth League Committee will organize all units to go to the streets to learn from Lei Feng and do good deeds. He knows that Xiaoyu can repair and sail boats, so he asked Xiaoyu this afternoon Did Yu know how to repair bicycles? Xiaoyu said yes, so he asked the office to purchase tools for repairing bicycles. He planned to let Xiaoyu and Xiaochen go to the streets to repair bicycles for free for citizens. In his words, he wanted to follow the local group. To have a good relationship with the group organization, you must actively participate in the activities of the group organization.”

"That makes sense!"

"Then during the time you went to Hanwu, your branch posted news on Binjiang Daily, Binjiang TV and Binjiang Radio every three days. The Changjiang Daily also appeared once, and the home page of the website run by the Changhang Bureau had your branch police News on patrol on the river.”

"Can he have such a good relationship with our Binjiang media?"

"Many members of the Writers' Association of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles are from the media. Most of the newspaper reporters are members of the Writers' Association. Almost all the photographers and videographers are members of the Photographers' Association. Even the host of Binjiang TV Station is a member of the Recitation Association. People regard him as a like-minded friend, and a senior police officer friend in a white shirt. What's the big deal about helping to publish a few news articles?"

Han Xiangning asked back, thought about it and laughed: "As for the media in Hanwu, he has been dealing with them for decades, so they still have to give them this face."

Han Yu was completely convinced and sighed: "So during his time as political commissar, the publicity work of our branch has taken a step forward?"

"More than one, at least two or three steps." Han Xiangning chuckled: "Even our director wants to invite him to dinner, and wants to ask him to help our Maritime Safety Administration with publicity."
