Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 986: Luxurious Visit to the North
Whether Luo Danian can succeed Zhou Quan as the top police officer in the future depends on his performance in his first term as acting commissioner.

Zhou Quan understood Luo Danian's current mood very well.

After all, both he and Huang Bingyao have gone through this stage.

Raising his hand and motioning for Luo Danian to sit down again, Zhou Quan then turned his gaze to Zhou Xingxing and Liu Jiehui.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Liu, the two of you will be responsible for forming a visiting team and follow me north."

"Other colleagues who stayed in their hometowns, please cooperate with Mr. Luo's work."

Taking the two deputy commissioners of police, Zhou Xingxing and Liu Jiehui, away from Hong Kong Island together is not just to provide Luo Danian with enough room to perform.

The main reason is that the two of them have different responsibilities in the subsequent police visits.

For Zhou Xingxing and Liu Jiehui, their current job mainly involves controlling and directing the macro direction of the police force.

The specific actions and matters will naturally be the responsibility of the brothers below.

If it weren't for some important work that required special attention from the police force from top to bottom.

Generally speaking, the six senior assistant commissioners of the police force are actually the highest persons in charge of all specific actions and matters.

In most cases, those above the rank of Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police will only focus on the macro-management of the entire police force and the direction of maintaining public order and stability in Hong Kong.

As the operational DCP, Zhou Xingxing's most important job now is the police force's plan to comprehensively upgrade police equipment.

The responsibilities of Liu Jiehui, the manager of DCP, are undoubtedly more complicated.

He needs to personally oversee the funding budget for the new generation of police equipment and personnel adjustments in the police force.

Now that the personnel adjustments in the police force have come to an end, the only issue left is the modification of the new generation of police equipment.

After a period of comparison and reference, Zhou Xingxing has determined the general direction of the new generation of police weapons.

The police force will fully replace its equipment with modified Type 92 models and NP-22 pistols produced in its hometown to replace the .17 revolvers and Glock s currently in service.

There is no doubt that the 92G pistol is the mainstream equipment of the police system in my hometown.

The NP-22 pistol is a new generation of pistol specially developed by its home country for use in international peacekeeping.

Its prototype is the SIG P226 9mm pistol, which is one of the mainstream pistol models of international police departments and the world-famous SIG Sauer pistol.

When it comes to science and performance, the NP-22 pistol undoubtedly has more advantages than the 92G.

However, the grip of the NP-22 pistol is relatively thick.

It may be difficult to operate for people with smaller hands, which will seriously affect the shooting effect, and it is especially not suitable for women.

However, within the current police force, great emphasis is placed on the presence of female police officers, especially in the front-line forces.

Each PTU patrol team is equipped with at least one female police officer.

After all, the patrol density of the Hong Kong Police Force is the highest in the world.

The patrol frequency of 114 steps per minute and the body cameras covering every inch of land are one of the core means of the Hong Kong Police Force to ensure law and order and maintain stability.

Once the patrol team conducts a spot check, if they are facing female targets, the presence of female police officers is obviously indispensable.

If everything goes well, then everyone will be happy.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.

In order to ensure the safety of female police officers, corresponding weapons and equipment are necessary.

What's more, even among male police officers, some have smaller hands.

Therefore, the mixed loading of 92G and NP-22 pistols has become the basis of the police force's planned modification of police equipment, and is also a relatively important part. This time, the Hong Kong Island Police Force delegation will go north, and Zhou Xingxing will lead police officers who can represent the different characteristics of the police force to have a deeper understanding of the corresponding performance of these two types of pistols.

As for Liu Jiehui's task, it is naturally to be responsible for related visit matters and subsequent possible customized procurement plans.

Zhou Xingxing, the operations DCP, has the power to make the final decision on the modification plan of the police force's weapons and equipment.

However, when it comes to the allocation of financial funds, it is obvious that Liu Jiehui has the final say.

Of course, this was the result of Zhou Quan's complete decentralization of power.

"Understood, sir!"

Under the leadership of Zhou Xingxing and Liu Jiehui, the core management members of the police force on the field all stood up, responded in a deep voice, and raised their hands to salute.

This also includes Luo Danian who had just sat down.

"Everyone should do their job, let's adjourn the meeting!"

Then Zhou Quan also stood up.

He nodded slightly and walked straight out of the meeting room.

Soon after, other core management members of the police force followed in an orderly manner.

Everyone returned to their posts and began to prepare for the corresponding work according to the instructions of their boss.

Outside of the police force, the press conferences now held by the Department of Public Safety are of great significance.

However, within the police force, the handover of work to the Acting Commissioner and the formation of a delegation to visit his hometown in the north are the top priorities at the moment.

After the core management meeting, Zhou Xingxing and Liu Jiehui each held an internal meeting of their respective working groups.

At the same time, Chen Guohua, head of the International Affairs Department of the National Security Bureau, also urgently invited representatives from the Hong Kong Island Police Force stationed by the Ministry of Public Security in his hometown.

The two of them actively communicated and discussed the Hong Kong Island Police Force's visit to the north.

The next morning, the police official convoy drove out of the Tai Kwun parking lot and rushed to the Hong Kong International Airport, preparing to board a business jet heading north.

In addition to the three top police executives, Zhou Quan, Liu Jiehui and Zhou Xingxing, the action team and the working group also sent out a very luxurious visiting lineup.

On the action team side, Zhou Xingxing brought support from ACP Chen Yongren, mobile unit chief Wang Dong, and the superintendent-level supervisor of the Criminal Division's Ordnance Forensics Section.

The Arms Forensic Examination Division is commonly known as the Arms Experts within the police force.

One of the department's duties is to evaluate the performance of police firearms and ammunition.

Together with some elite officers from various departments, a visiting team was formed to inspect the police equipment modification plan.

The management team commanded by Liu Jiehui dispatched a number of administrative civilian police officers and professional personnel from the Hong Kong government affiliated with the Financial Services Department.

They are responsible for liaison during visits by police delegations and for negotiating deals on weapons purchases.

All police officers used a dedicated channel and boarded the police force's official plane to fly to Capital International Airport in their hometown.

It is expected to arrive at the destination in about three hours and meet up with the reception team from the Ministry of Public Security in my hometown.

This visit to the north is not the first during Zhou Quan’s term, but it is definitely the largest one.

The police chief led the team and was accompanied by two deputy commissioners of police.

The visiting delegation is so luxurious that it is unprecedented in the history of the police force.
