章節 615: Chapter 615: Changes in Police Strength
As the crowd dispersed, news of the martial arts competition between the Martial Arts Club and the Karate Club spread through the gossiping citizens.
By noon, when the audience turned on the TV to watch the Global TV's 'Midday News' while eating, they happened to see this news, and many viewers were suddenly interested.
Live competition, the losing party picks up the plaque and closes the door!
And one side is a Chinese martial arts school, and the other side is a karate school opened by a Japanese.
This looks like a thrilling plot from a movie, but movies cost money to watch, and there is no sense of substitution.
Now it's different, you can watch it live. The venue is the So Kon Po Sports Ground in Causeway Bay, which can accommodate thousands of people.
Plus, it's Saturday, so I have free time.
So many people who have seen the news have already made up their minds to go in the afternoon to be spectators and cheer for the Chinese martial arts school. Some people with a stronger desire to show off immediately informed their friends:
'Hey, Han sir, it's me, Xia Yu... I'm calling to let you know that the Jeet Kune Do Martial Arts School and the Karate Martial Arts School will be competing at the So Kon Po Sports Ground in Causeway Bay at 3pm today, and there will definitely be a lot of people there... Okay, then I'll leave it to you...'
After hanging up the phone, Xia Yu scratched the small, upturned nose of Li Qian next to him and said with a smile, 'You see, I told you there would be no problem. Your husband has never failed to deliver, when has there ever been a mistake?'
Li Qian rolled her eyes and laughed lightly, 'Yes, yes, you're the best husband.'
'Haha...'
Xia Yu laughed heartily as he held Li Qian in his arms.
When Li Qian saw the news on Global TV at noon, she was worried that many people would gather to watch in the afternoon, and accidents were inevitable. She reminded Xia Yu to pay attention to public safety issues.
In fact, without Li Xi's reminder, he was also planning to call Han Yili over dinner to ask the police department to send some police to maintain order at the scene.
That's right, after the British general election in May, the Conservative Party immediately began to make personnel changes in officials across the country and its colonies.
After saying hello to Xia Yu, Shi Lirong handed over his work to the newly appointed Police Commissioner, the former Deputy Commissioner Han Yili, after leaving office on June 2.
The other deputy director, Li Sita, had offended Xia Yu and was having a hard time in the Hong Kong Police Force. He was finally transferred to a city management prison in the UK. Although he returned to the UK, his political career could be considered over.
In the eyes of the people of Hong Kong, the Commissioner of Police is a very important position, but if you consider that the Governor of Hong Kong is lower in the British government hierarchy than the Mayor of London, you can see the weight of the Commissioner of Police.
Originally, Han Yili's position was inclined towards Xia Yu. After seeing Xia Yu's energy in the upper echelons of the British government and being able to influence his promotion, Han Yili decisively switched sides.
After Han Yili took office as the Commissioner of Police, he immediately promoted Li Junxia, a chief superintendent, as the assistant director of the Operations Department, and he truly joined the ranks of the upper echelons of the Police Department.
In the Police Force's most powerful Operations Department, there are only three people at the same level as Li Junxia. Above him is the Senior Assistant Commissioner who directly manages the Operations Department, above that is the Deputy Commissioner who also oversees the Operations Department and the Criminal Security Department, and finally there is Han Yili.
In other words, there are only three people above Li Junxia who can give him direct orders!
Li Junxia has received so many benefits, and Xia Jun, who is closest to Xia Yu, has also received special attention from Han Yili.
Although Xia Jun had only been promoted to Station Sergeant for a short time, he was given special treatment by Han Yili. He was promoted to an outstanding police officer and directly promoted to probationary inspector, finally rising to the lowest threshold of the middle management of the police department.
Of course, although his rank was raised by one level, Xia Jun's actual position was still squad commander, because the positions from Station Sergeant to Senior Inspector, three levels above, were all squad commanders.
The Hong Kong Police Force is divided into three levels and fifteen ranks. The Commissioner level includes seven ranks: Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, Senior Assistant Commissioner, Assistant Commissioner, Chief Superintendent, Senior Superintendent, and Superintendent. The Inspectorate level includes four ranks: Chief Inspector, Senior Inspector, Inspector, and Probationary Inspector. The Rank and File level includes four ranks: Station Sergeant, Sergeant, Senior Police Constable, and Police Constable.
In the rank and file, as long as you have the connections and ability, you can be promoted quickly. Xia Jun was promoted four times in one and a half years, with the personal order of Han Yili, the boss of the police department, and no one dared to object.
However, once you enter the intermediate level of inspector, the promotion speed will be much slower. But with the protection of the bigwigs inside and outside, Xia Jun's much slower promotion speed will also be the rocket promotion speed that others can only envy.
Xia Jun was promoted so quickly that he became the boss of a group of people at a young age. There must be people in the police department who are jealous and envious, but no matter how jealous they are, they can only hide it in their hearts. Xia Jun's background is there, and it is destined that as long as the stock god Xia Yu does not fall, no one in Xiangjiang can bring him down.
On the contrary, some people with quick wits surrounded Xia Jun. The police officers in Xia Jun's squad worked harder than the other squads just to cling to Xia Jun's thighs, so that they could rise with him when he became successful.
Therefore, under these circumstances, Xia Jun's days in the police department were simply not easy. He just needed to work hard and wait for promotion.
'Crown prince parties' like this exist everywhere, not to mention in the capitalist world where money talks?
After making the call to Han Yili, Xia Yu thought about it for a while and then called Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong. After informing them of the situation, both of them said they would come in the afternoon to watch.
In fact, at their level, they would not spend time and energy on such things, but now Xia Yu called them and said to go and relax and watch a show, so how could they not come?
Moreover, with their intelligence, they instantly realised that the Extreme Martial Way was related to Xia Yu, and they were also curious about what Xia Yu wanted.
Amidst the chaos, more and more citizens arrived at the Kowloon Bay So Kon Po Stadium, and a simple but sturdy martial arts ring had already been set up in the centre of the stadium.
When Xia Yu arrived with Huo Yingdong, Bao Yugang and the others at 2:30 pm, he noticed that people were arriving outside the stadium one after the other. Many hawkers were pushing carts selling snacks, drinks and cigarettes, and there were police officers in uniform everywhere maintaining order.
After entering the stadium, he noticed that there were many people sitting around the stadium, and there were at least 2,000 people at a glance.
'Xia Yu, there are quite a lot of people here. It seems that the Jibo martial arts school is going to become an overnight sensation in Hong Kong!'
Bao Yugang laughed aloud.
When he arrived, Xia Yu had already told him about the relationship between the Jibo martial arts school and him. After learning about the relationship, Bao Yugang was certain that the competition would be under Xia Yu's control, and that the Jibo martial arts school would win was an inevitable result.
'The louder the better. Hong Kong is different from the mainland. The foundation of Chinese martial arts is still there. The Japanese people are still rushing in to grab a share of the pie, and they really should be driven out.'
Huo Yingdong expressed his opinion.
'Oh, the live broadcast equipment from Global TV is all set up.'
'They started setting it up in the morning, and it was a pain to get the cables connected.'
Xia Yu followed Huo Yingdong's gaze to look at the surroundings of the ring and the high platform, where high-end live broadcast equipment had been set up. After informing Huang Xizhao in the morning, he immediately sent someone to prepare.
'Good afternoon, Mr Xia, Mr Bao, Mr Huo!'
Just then, a strong voice sounded from the side. Xia Yu looked over and was surprised to see Li Junxia.
'Li sir, long time no see, congratulations on your promotion!'
'Thank you, and thank you, Mr Xia, for your great care!'
Li Junxia quickly said humbly, his attitude making Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong a little surprised. The two men glanced at Xia Yu, who was smiling faintly, and a look of thought flashed in their eyes.
It seems that Xia Yu and Li Junxia have an unusual relationship!
'Bao, Huo, let me introduce you. This is Li Junxia, Assistant Commissioner of Operations at the Police Department, and my good friend.'
'I won't introduce these two bigwigs, you should know them!'
'Of course I know them, the shipping magnate and the tycoon Huo, role models for us Chinese!'
'Haha, Li sir, I know you, you are the star of the Chinese police force, it's an honour to meet you!'
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Li Junxia continued to deploy personnel to maintain order at the scene, while Xia Yu and the others, escorted by bodyguards, arrived at the specially set VIP seats.
The arrival of the three tycoons excited the public waiting at the scene and in front of the TV, and they looked forward to the upcoming competition.
Soon, a group of people dressed in white karate uniforms entered with heads held high, and took up their positions under the bleachers, just about five metres away from Li Wuyang and the others.
The battle for martial arts glory was about to begin!
