Hong Kong News: Police Talker

Chapter 1029 Lin Zhengfeng’s Thoughts

Lin Zhengfeng hesitated for a moment. He had no background in the police force, and being able to climb to the commander-in-chief of the Narcotics Investigation Division was already his limit.

Climbing up further, you will become Assistant Director and Deputy Director of Operations.

He was not interested in the position of Assistant Director, mainly because, to be honest, the position of Assistant Director was not as good as the position of Chief Commander of the Narcotics Investigation Division.

As for the position of Deputy Director of Operations, he had thought about it, but it was not so easy to get promoted in the police force. Just take the competition for the position of Deputy Director of Operations as an example.

One is Li Wenbin, the other is Huang Bingyao, and then there is Cai Yuanqi. These three people all hold great power and have worked in the police force for many years. Their network of relationships covers the entire police force.

Even outside the police force, there are countless supporters. How can Lin Zhengfeng compete with these people?

As for the competition for the position of Deputy Director of Operations, it now seems to be a fight between two heroes in the police force, namely Li Wenbin and Huasheng, but suddenly Qu Haolin was parachuted in.

At first, he didn't know what Qu Haolin was here for, nor did he know who was behind this person.

But what I heard today was incredible. The person behind this was actually Secretary for Justice Lai, a big shot with connections in Hong Kong Island.

So after hearing what Ou Haolin and the others said, Lin Zhengfeng quickly smiled and said, flattered, "Of course I'm willing. It's a rare opportunity to have the honor of having dinner with Director Li!"

Qu Haolin smiled faintly: "Okay, since you are willing, Lin Sir, then I will ask Director Li to confirm a time and let you know when the time comes."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you Sir. If you have any problems in the police force in the future, you can come to me. I will definitely help if I can!" Lin Zhengfeng promised with a smile on his face.

It seems that he is very confident in his words, but in fact, there is no guarantee at all. He will definitely help if he can, but whether he can help or not is up to Lin Zhengfeng himself.

Qu Haolin and Zeng Xiangrong had been trained in the management department for many years, so how could they not understand what Lin Zhengfeng meant? However, neither of them minded. If he really gave all kinds of guarantees as soon as he arrived, then they would be the ones to worry.

After all, these days, there are many people who talk nonsense.

After the three of them chatted for a while, Zeng Xiangrong and Qu Haolin got up and left.

After they left, the smile on Lin Zhengfeng's face suddenly disappeared and his brows furrowed slightly.

He also began to think. The other party came to him and revealed his backers. It was obvious that he wanted to win him over.

As for the purpose of winning them over, even if they didn't say it, Lin Zhengfeng could guess it.

Isn't it that he has his eyes on the position of deputy director of operations, and now he is trying to win me over and gain my support?

Do you really want to sleep in their bed?

Cai Yuanqi had been involved with them before, but he still failed.

Although the forces behind these people are very strong, they cannot dominate the police force. Instead, Li Wenbin and Watson have the advantage.

One relies on Li Shutang, and the other relies on Wong Bing-yiu, who are the former and current top police officers respectively.

Under such circumstances, Lin Zhengfeng was really not optimistic that Qu Haolin could successfully defeat these two people and ascend to the position of deputy director of operations.

But this has nothing to do with him. Lin Zhengfeng himself sees it very clearly. It is impossible for him to get promoted. Although he knows some people in the police force, these people would rather choose Li Wenbin or Watson than choose him.

"Now that Li Wenbin and Huasheng have become the dominant force, even if I go to join them, I won't be able to be promoted. In this situation, it's not impossible for me to accept Zeng Xiangrong and his men's solicitation."

"Even... I could even ask them to support me in competing for the position of Deputy Director of Operations. After all, judging from the way Ou Haolin looked just now, he's clearly no match for Li Wenbin and Huasheng."

"As long as Director Li and the others are completely disappointed with that useless Ou Haolin, then my chance will come."

Thinking of this, Lin Zhengfeng couldn't help but get a little excited. He definitely wanted to take the position of deputy director of operations, but no one supported him before, so he could only bow his head and behave himself.

Now, as long as I can get in touch with the Secretary for Justice, Mr. Lai, then my chance will come!

Moreover, I can let that loser Qu Haolin take the blame in front, so that Watson and Li Wenbin can relax their vigilance. When they are both injured in the fight, I can come out and reap the benefits. Hahaha, good idea, let's do it this way!

At the same time, Zeng Xiangrong and Ou Haolin, who had left, also began to analyze after returning to the office.

"Mr. Zeng, you've been in the police force for a long time. Does this Lin Zhengfeng really want to get closer to us?"

Zeng Xiangrong pondered for a moment and said, "I haven't paid much attention to Lin Zhengfeng, but I do know some information about him. He originally entered the police force directly through examinations as a university student, and was promoted to inspector right after he joined."

"In his time, college graduates were a rarity. This allowed Lin Zhengfeng to smoothly rise to the position of Superintendent after joining the police force. He then remained in the Narcotics Bureau. With his seniority, education, and meritorious service, he eventually became Chief Superintendent of the Narcotics Bureau."

"It may seem like a glamorous position, but in reality, his roots in the police force are very shallow. He hasn't been on the front lines for long, and he hasn't solved many major cases. He was able to be promoted so quickly because of his academic qualifications. The police force is really paying top dollar for a good job, after all, during Lei Luo's time, the police force's reputation was tarnished."

"The police force is in desperate need of some positive images, and Lin Zhengfeng has really stepped on that cusp and taken off."

"Although he has risen to the rank of Chief Superintendent, barring any unforeseen circumstances, his career in the police force is almost over. After all, he still lacks the necessary skills to become Deputy Commissioner of Operations, and he has few supporters."

At this point, Zeng Xiangrong said solemnly, "From this perspective, Lin Zhengfeng should be genuinely approaching us, not just pretending to be friendly."

Hearing this, Qu Haolin felt relieved. He exhaled and said slowly, "Is that so? That means Lin Zhengfeng is currently in dire need of support and patronage, and these happen to be our current strengths."

"After all, when it comes to backing, there aren't many people in Hong Kong Island who are more powerful than us. We have Secretary Lai behind us, the Secretary for Justice, one of the three attorneys general."

"As long as Lin Zhengfeng isn't a fool, it shouldn't be difficult to subdue him. As long as we get Lin Zhengfeng's support, we can be considered a three-way rival with Watson and Li Wenbin in the future, hahahaha!"
