The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 366 Born to be an Undercover Agent

Liu Jianming said with a worried look on his face: "Father-in-law, my brother is clearly reminding you that it is impossible to protect yourself."

Is this what you mean, brother?

Yin Jianqiang was shocked: "Oh? What do you mean?"

"You obviously didn't join the task force, and everyone knows that you don't want to get involved in these things. But Brother Yi came to you without saying anything, which in itself is an attitude. He is blaming you for not taking responsibility. You should have taken care of this matter but didn't, and you want to stay out of it. It's irresponsible."

Yin Jianqiang's face darkened. He knew this very well. It was not honorable to run away from the battlefield and he would definitely be despised by others.

It was just a matter of choosing the lesser of two evils. Yin Jianqiang would rather be secretly despised than get involved in the fight between the big guys.

But now that the eldest brother has called to express his dissatisfaction, that’s a different matter.

Seeing Yin Jianqiang's uncertain expression, Liu Jianming continued to analyze: "Director, you have told me your concerns. I understand your thoughts, but I think you think this matter is too simple."

"Uh, what do you say?"

"The two deputy commissioners of police are fighting. Others may not get involved, but you cannot, because the case happened in West Kowloon, and it is your responsibility."

"Besides, those police superintendents are of low status and not important enough, so they can still avoid them. But you are already an assistant director, and you are only two levels away from deputy director. It is difficult to stay out of it!"

Liu Jianming said with some worry: "When the two are combined, there are not many choices. Others can avoid it, but you can't! If you don't handle one of them well, you will offend both sides in the end. No matter who takes the position, it will not be good for you."

Yin Jianqiang was suddenly startled, sweat dripped down his forehead, and he could no longer sit still. He stood up and walked around the office anxiously, thinking constantly in his mind.

Yes
I only thought of the good points of not getting involved, but I didn't expect the disadvantages of just sitting on the sidelines and watching. If I didn't help either side, not only would Deputy Director Shen Cheng be dissatisfied with me, but Deputy Director Gao might not buy into my account either.

And, most importantly, the eldest brother called again and expressed his dissatisfaction clearly. He is the one who is most in trouble!

It seems that this cannot go on any longer.
Thinking of this, Liu Jianming, who could see all this, was more appreciative. He wiped the sweat off his face and asked in a friendly tone, "Jianming, then what do you think? Should we participate?"

"Of course you have to participate. Otherwise, when the overall situation is settled, you will be marginalized. Because the position of an assistant director or a regional director is too valuable. If there is no one above you who speaks for you, you will not be able to hold the position securely."

"The higher-ups just found a random reason to transfer you away." Liu Jianming secretly despised Yin Jianqiang. Yin Jianqiang couldn't even see this clearly, not as clearly as himself, a small inspector.

"Yeah, that makes sense."

Yin Jianqiang nodded and asked, "If we participate, which side should we help?"

This question was the most difficult. Liu Jianming was at a loss for a moment. He hesitated for a moment and shook his head in uncertainty: "It's hard to say. Each has its own pros and cons. There are advantages and risks!"

"Then we will join Deputy Director Gao?"

Yin Jianqiang thought for a moment and asked tentatively.

"It stands to reason that since Deputy Director Gao has the advantage of being on the home ground and taking the initiative, we should side with him."

"But precisely because he has a strong army and powerful strength, if you go to him now, it will inevitably be seen as icing on the cake. People will mistakenly think you have no stance and are a speculative villain."

Liu Jianming's words made Yin Jianqiang's face fall again. This son-in-law was good in every way. He was handsome and smart, but his emotional intelligence was a little low. He didn't understand human nature and his words were always unpleasant and too harsh.

For fear of interrupting Liu Jianming, Yin Jianqiang held back his outburst and just nodded, motioning Liu Jianming to continue.

"Deputy Director Shen is a little weak in the department, but he has a background in the north, and the eldest brother has to give him some face, and he also lacks the strength of the powerful people below. Now he is in trouble again. If you can go to him now, it can be said to be a timely help. Deputy Director Shen will pay a huge price for you, and he will also reward you greatly in order to win more people's hearts."

"It's just that he's stuck in the case and at a disadvantage. If he fails miserably, it would be bad if you surrender now and become a scapegoat."

"So, you still have to consider the risks involved carefully?"

After hearing what Liu Jianming said, Yin Jianqiang became even more undecided. One option has no risk but no return, while the other has a big risk but also a high return.

"Jianming, if it were you, what would you choose?"

Liu Jianming was stunned and said frankly: "Father-in-law, if it were me, I would definitely join Deputy Director Shen and win a future with him. But I am in a low position and have no representativeness. Even if I join him, it will be useless. You are different. Your goal is too big. Your situation is completely different from mine."

In fact, Liu Jianming has already seen from Yi Ge's attitude that Yi Ge actually hopes that Yin Jianqiang will join Shen Cheng and lend a hand to solve the case.

Because it is in the interest of Deputy Director Gao to keep the case unsolved, but not in the interest of Yi Ge. Yi Ge may not be doing this to help Shen Cheng, but he does not want the entire police department to be disgraced because of this case.

But the eldest brother did not make it clear. If Shen Cheng failed, Yin Jianqiang would most likely become a scapegoat if he surrendered at this time.

Yin Jianqiang was Liu Jianming's strongest backer, so Liu Jianming had to spend a lot of effort to plan for him. He looked at Yin Jianqiang, who looked troubled, thought for a while, and tried to say, "Otherwise, father-in-law, please wait a little longer until the case becomes clearer before making a decision."

"If the case shows signs of being solved, you will immediately surrender. If the case cannot be solved, you will immediately pledge your loyalty to Deputy Director Gao?"

Yin Jianqiang paced back and forth for a few steps, thought for a while, and nodded slightly: "Well, Jianming's words make sense, I also think this is the safest way." "Jianming, your Internal Affairs Department, in the name of caring about the case, should pay more attention to the special investigation team. If they have any progress, you can report to me at any time."

Liu Jianming was stunned, a complicated expression appeared on his face, and he sighed slightly in his heart.
To be honest, Liu Jianming hopes that Yin Jianqiang will take a firmer stand and choose one side to lean on, whether it is Gao Jianbin or Shen Cheng. Such talents can go further in the workplace.

Yin Jianqiang, on the other hand, was hesitant and vacillating, like a fence-sitter, changing with the wind, afraid of this and that. No one would value such a person and rely on him as a confidant.

After becoming Assistant Commissioner, Yin Jianqiang did not join any of the three major giants of the Police Force. Instead, he maintained an ambiguous attitude towards each side, with a clear centrist stance.

But from another perspective, the three giants all looked down on him, so no one tried to win him over.

At the beginning, Liu Jianming clung to Liang Feihu's thigh. After catching up with Yin Jiayi, he tried to find out indirectly and found out that Yin Jianqiang and Liang Feihu were not from the same faction. They even competed for the position of Director of West Kowloon Department. After that, they were considered rivals. So he left Liang Feihu without hesitation and joined Yin Jianqiang.

If she continued to work as Liang Feihu's secretary, she would end up being caught between the two of them and would definitely become the undercover agent that she hated the most.

There was no other way. If he continued to do this, his special identity would be doomed. He would either reveal the news about Liang Feihu to Yin Jianqiang, or follow Liang Feihu's instructions and find out the secrets from Yin Jianqiang.

Therefore, after Yin Jianqiang agreed to his marriage with his daughter, Liu Jianming confessed to Liang Feihu immediately and then quit his secretary job.

At that time, Liang Feihu felt a little regretful and said that he didn't care who Liu Jianming's son-in-law was, but he valued Liu Jianming's diligence and hard work.

But Liu Jianming has experienced a lot and is not as easily fooled as he seems. He knows very well what these people in high positions are thinking. What's more, Liang Feihu himself is suspected to be an undercover agent and will definitely take advantage of his identity.

Therefore, Liu Jianming chose to join Yin Jianqiang without hesitation and gave up following Liang Feihu, with a very firm attitude.

Liang Feihu had no choice but to let Liu Jianming go.

This allowed Liu Jianming to avoid a dilemma at the beginning, but he did not expect that Yin Jianqiang would send him to Li Yan's Internal Affairs Department. Liu Jianming felt at the time that one day Yin Jianqiang would make things difficult for him.

As expected, Yin Jianqiang now asked him to keep an eye on the task force, which meant he was caught between Yin Jianqiang and Li Yan again.

If Li Yan finds out that he is a traitor, he will probably suffer the consequences.
Am I, Liu Jianming, born to be an undercover agent?

Although he was very reluctant, Liu Jianming could not refuse Yin Jianqiang's order.

Both publicly and privately, Yin Jianqiang cannot fail, and Liu Jianming, for the sake of his own future, must do his best to support him.

Thinking of this, Liu Jianming nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, father-in-law, I will definitely keep an eye on the task force, and notify you as soon as there is any movement."

"Um"

Yin Jianqiang patted Liu Jianming's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Jianming, you have been a trainee inspector for more than two years. When this busy period is over, I will say hello to Li Yan and promote you to a full inspector."

"Damn it! The director's son-in-law only got promoted to the next level after more than two years. How dare you say that!"

Liu Jianming suppressed his dissatisfaction and said with a happy expression: "Thank you, Director. I will work hard."

"Um"

Yin Jianqiang nodded with satisfaction, a complex light flashed in his eyes!

Everyone thinks being the son-in-law of a superior is a good thing, and he will be promoted quickly. If Yin Jianqiang knew who thought so, he would sneer. As the person involved, he can tell this person that the one who gets promoted quickly is the superior's son.

As the son-in-law of a superior, he should not be promoted too quickly, otherwise it will affect the relationship between the son-in-law and his daughter.
Once a son-in-law becomes successful, he will inevitably face various temptations. If the boss retires at this time, or cannot control himself, his daughter will face the risk of becoming a widow.

That's right, it's not a divorce, because the son-in-law is promiscuous, and the superior, as the old Taishan, will mobilize resources to fight against him. In the end, most of the time, the cunning superior will win, and the son-in-law will be brought down to the ground or even sent to prison.

It can be said that both sides suffer losses and no one ends up well.

The best way is not to raise your salary too high at the beginning, and then make an effort when you are about to retire.

What's more, Yin Jianqiang's daughter Yin Jiayi has been married to Liu Jianming for more than two years, but has not yet become pregnant. Of course, this is also because his daughter is too playful and does not want to have a child so early.

But it is an indisputable fact that they have no children and their marriage is not solid. As a father, Yin Jianqiang has to be on guard for the sake of his daughter.

The situation is different now. If Liu Jianming can make more contributions in his own affairs, it would not be a big deal to promote him to the position of trainee inspector.

At most, he is still a small inspector.

Moreover, he has been an intern for more than two years, and it is time to take a further step. A normal internship does not take that long. I have persuaded Liu Jianming not to get promoted several times on the grounds that young people need more training and a solid foundation so that they can go further in the future.

I just happened to take this opportunity to mention it, otherwise this kid would have seen through my true intention of suppressing him secretly.
