Chapter 712: Chapter 712: Getting Acquainted with the New Job
"Notice of the Haizhou City Public Security Bureau, Personnel Document No. 3, regarding the appointment and removal of Comrade Yuan Shaokang and others."
"...After research and decision by the municipal bureau, Yuan Shaokang is relieved from his position as captain of the Criminal Investigation Team of the High-tech Zone Branch and will be reassigned."
"Notice of the Haizhou City Public Security Bureau, Personnel Document No. 4, regarding the temporary assignments of Comrade Lu Chuan and others."
"...After research and decision by the municipal bureau, Comrade Lu Chuan is assigned as acting captain of the Criminal Investigation Team of the High-tech Zone Branch for a one-year period."
Duan Huabing first read the decision to remove Yuan Shaokang from his post, then announced the notice regarding Lu Chuan’s temporary assignment.
"This personnel adjustment fully reflects the Haizhou City Public Security Bureau’s focus on the High-tech Zone Branch, and it shows the higher authorities’ attention to the construction of the Criminal Investigation Team’s ranks."
"I hope everyone will actively cooperate with Comrade Lu Chuan’s work in the coming year."
"Strive to achieve better results and create greater glory."
Duan Huabing did not give a lengthy speech; he only talked briefly about the higher authorities’ attention, especially concerning Lu Chuan’s achievements.
Chen Weiguo, on behalf of the High-tech Zone Branch, expressed gratitude to the Haizhou City Public Security Bureau.
"Next, let’s hear from Comrade Lu Chuan!"
This was the last agenda item.
"Respected Minister Duan Huabing, Director Chen Weiguo, first of all, I am very grateful to the organization for their trust, and for their cultivation of my abilities..."
"Rest assured, leaders, I will work diligently in the Criminal Investigation Team of the High-tech Zone Branch, unite colleagues, and work innovatively with a determined spirit."
"I will not waste my youth, nor my prime years; I will dedicate my blood and life to fully defend the safety of people’s property and lives."
"I will never fail the higher organization’s training and trust in me!"
After speaking, Lu Chuan stood up and saluted, with thunderous applause beneath him.
The appointment and removal meeting quickly concluded, with Duan Huabing and Chen Weiguo leaving one after the other.
"Captain Lu, this is your office; it was formerly Captain Yuan’s office, and I’m just next door."
Once the senior leaders left, Deputy Captain Qin Dahai escorted Lu Chuan to familiarize him with the work of the Criminal Investigation Team.
"Captain Qin, thank you for your hard work. Later let’s have a small meeting and invite a few squad leaders."
"Okay, I will arrange it now."
The organizational structure of the High-tech Zone’s Criminal Investigation Team is relatively simple.
The office handles all internal and logistical support work.
There are also three criminal investigative squads responsible for handling major case investigations.
The instructor position has long been vacant, and currently, there’s only a deputy captain.
Ten minutes later, in Conference Room One.
"Captain Lu, I’m the Squad Leader of Squad One, Wang Zhaokai."
"Captain Lu, I’m from Squad Two, Chen Jiang."
"Captain Lu, I’m from Squad Three, Sun Biao."
"Captain Lu, I’m the Office Director, Zhao Haifeng."
Lu Chuan sat in the main seat, with Deputy Captain Qin Dahai beside him.
The four mid-level cadres of the Criminal Investigation Team introduced themselves.
Lu Chuan had previously interacted with Squad One’s leader, Wang Zhaokai, during case handling; they knew each other by name but were not particularly familiar.
Lu Chuan had never met Chen Jiang from Squad Two or Sun Biao from Squad Three before.
Lu Chuan had met Zhao Haifeng once before, during a meal and drinks with Yuan Shaokang.
In the Criminal Investigation Team, Lu Chuan didn’t attend social gatherings often.
However, within the system, when friends or colleagues invite you for a meal, especially superiors, it’s generally disrespectful to refuse.
Compared to other industries, Lu Chuan and his team had fewer social engagements.
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, thus recognized them.
"I am new here and unfamiliar with the work of our Criminal Investigation Team. So, in the next two days, as I have time, please compile the case files you are currently handling and provide them to me."
Lu Chuan had never been in such a fully responsible leadership position before, being appointed as the captain of the Criminal Investigation Team was a significant challenge for him.
Being a leader within a system is not like doing business outside.
However, they have similarities.
The fundamental purpose of running a company outside is to make money.
This time as the captain of the Criminal Investigation Team, Lu Chuan’s core mission and goal were to solve cases.
Hence, Lu Chuan had already planned to address all backlogged cases held by the Criminal Investigation Team before his arrival.
He saw it as his contribution upon taking the role of captain to the Criminal Investigation Team.
Aside from that, unless there are special circumstances, Lu Chuan wouldn’t pay particular attention.
Upon hearing that Lu Chuan wanted to start with case files right away, everyone felt relieved.
As rumored, Lu Chuan was brilliant at handling cases, approachable, and unpretentious.
"Captain Lu, before you arrived, we had already organized a file compilation, it’s in my office, and I’ll transfer it to your office later."
Qin Dahai spoke.
As a deputy captain, Qin Dahai hadn’t imagined being promoted.
During Yuan Shaokang’s tenure as captain of the Criminal Investigation Team, Qin Dahai had served as deputy captain for two years.
At that time, Qin Dahai was only 45 years old.
During that period, Qin Dahai, although not particularly young and promising, was doing well.
Without using connections or money, achieving the position of deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Team purely through ability and performance was indeed remarkable.
However, in nearly 10 years afterward, Qin Dahai’s position never changed.
Now, Qin Dahai is already 54 years old.
According to bureau regulations, he can move to a secondary line at 58.
With good fortune, within a year or two, he might secure a better position with full authority benefits.
If unlucky, Qin Dahai might retire as deputy captain.
Therefore, before Lu Chuan’s arrival, Qin Dahai had firmly decided to fully cooperate with Lu Chuan’s work in the Criminal Investigation Team.
Prior to Lu Chuan’s arrival, Qin Dahai reviewed his experiences.
Honestly, Lu Chuan’s work experience is rather straightforward, with only a short working period of two years.
However, a short work period doesn’t indicate incompetence.
The primary reason for Lu Chuan’s assignment as acting captain was his strong case-handling capability.
Last year, the High-tech Zone Criminal Investigation Team had unsolved cases that Lu Chuan managed to solve.
Hence, before Lu Chuan took office, Qin Dahai had already instructed the squad leaders to organize the cases they were handling.
There are eight cases in total.
Some cases happened this year, while others are old unsolved ones.
"Alright, I’m easygoing, and everyone is welcome to communicate freely with me in my office—no need to be formal."
"In addition, later on, I’ll tour around the squads with you all to familiarize myself with the team."
"Yes!"
Later, led by the three squad leaders, Lu Chuan met the squad members for familiarization.
Over the following days, Lu Chuan fully dedicated himself to addressing the backlog of cases in the Criminal Investigation Team.
