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

Chapter 464 Huang Zhicheng: Do you have any instructions?

Thinking of this, Lin Guodong said in a warm and friendly tone: "What Li Sir said makes sense. He has considered all aspects. I fully agree."

Lin Guodong's change of heart was so abrupt that everyone present clearly felt his intention. Everyone smiled slightly. There was almost no stupid person present. They all knew that although the headquarters had not yet decided the outcome, the situation in the West Kowloon Police Station had become clear.

Lin Guodong's surrender meant that the police station was almost overwhelmingly leaning towards Li Yan.

"Commissioner, we are all very saddened by the injury of Mr. Huang this time. We all hope that he can recover quickly and come back to lead the police officers to continue their struggle."

Li Yan suddenly said, "But a broken leg is no small matter. I have checked with Huang Sir's attending physician. Huang Sir's injury is very serious. I am afraid that he will not be able to walk for a year at most, or half a year at least. Even if he is discharged from the hospital in the future, he will have to rest for a long time."

"As everyone knows, O Ji is the organized crime and triad investigation department. It has heavy responsibilities and often has to lead police officers to charge into battle and handle various emergencies. Given Mr. Huang's physical condition, he will definitely not be able to perform his duties in the short term."

At this point, everyone understood.

Li Yan had his eyes on the position left by Huang Zhicheng. In fact, this issue was very realistic. Yin Jianqiang had discussed it with Li Yan before. Both of them did not want the headquarters to transfer another person from outside to replace Huang Zhicheng. It would be best to select from within.

Therefore, Yin Jianqiang also hinted to Li Yan that if there was a suitable candidate, he could propose it at the meeting. Although the appointment of the Chief Superintendent and the department head was at the top, the police station could recommend someone to take over temporarily, which was equivalent to doing a big favor.

Even if this person cannot take over the position smoothly in the future, he has already planted a nail in the new deputy director's territory in advance and quietly sidelined the other party.

Just dealing with the affairs of their own department will keep the other party busy and they will have no time to get involved in the power struggle among the top police officers. If the other party wants to resolve internal risks, they will have to make greater concessions, which is tantamount to seizing the initiative.

Yin Jianqiang is about to be promoted, and his son-in-law is still in a low position and still needs Li Yan's care. Why not sell Li Yan an empty favor? As for whether the person you, Li Yan, recommend can take over smoothly, that is your business and has nothing to do with me. Anyway, you have to accept my favor.

Li Yan naturally understood the meaning of the music and brought it up in the meeting without any hesitation.

When it comes to fighting for power and profit, you have to take action when the time is right. You can't be afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind. What you get in the bowl is real.

In fact, this kind of matter has nothing to do with the people below, and they are not qualified to interfere in it. They just bring it up in front of everyone, which seems to be more democratic and to appear to be serving the public!
As soon as Li Yan finished speaking, Yin Jianqiang echoed him and said solemnly: "Yes, Lao Huang was injured for his work, which is worth learning from."

"But his physical condition is indeed good, and we can't let him work too hard. So, Li Yan recommends someone, and we'll discuss it and have him take over Lao Huang's job temporarily. We'll see what the headquarters thinks about the details when the time comes."

"I think Guodong is a good fit!"

Li Yan smiled and looked at Lam Kwok Tung and said, "Kwok Tung is a core member of O Triad, with profound business experience. He is also the right-hand man of Superintendent Wong and knows many people well. He has been a senior superintendent for many years. When I was in O Triad, he was the leader of Group A."

"This time, we interrogated Scarface and uncovered Han Chen, who was behind this. He has made contributions. Why not let him temporarily replace Chief Superintendent Huang Zhicheng and take charge of the entire department? I believe that Huang Sir will not have any major objections."

Yin Jianqiang was stunned. He originally thought that Li Yan would transfer Huo Qiqiang to take over, but he did not expect that he would promote Lin Guodong, who was obviously Huang Zhicheng's confidant.

But on second thought, if Huang Zhicheng was there, Lin Guodong would naturally not waver at all.

But seeing that Old Huang had left and would not be back for a while, Lin Guodong naturally had to consider his own future.

Without Huang Zhicheng's concerns, it is possible that he will turn to Li Yan.

At the very least, during the period when Huang Zhicheng is not in the police station, Lam Kwok-tung will lean towards Li Yan. Later, depending on Li Yan's skills and the development of the situation, he will naturally be able to keep the Organized Crime and Triads firmly in his hands. Even if Huang Zhicheng comes back or a new chief comes, it will not be easy to change the situation.

Besides, it’s not the appointment of a new person, it’s just a temporary replacement.

It is indeed more appropriate to promote someone like Lam Kwok Tung, who already has a high reputation in the Organized Crime and Triads, than others. To be honest, Lam Kwok Tung has been a senior superintendent longer than Li Yan, so his qualifications are very solid.

However, there is no one above him. For ordinary people, senior superintendent is the ceiling. Just like there are many bosses in the district police station below, and they used to be Yin Jianqiang's superiors, but so what? They still stayed in the same position until retirement and never got promoted.

Regarding this matter, it is hard for Organized Crime and Triad Bureau and others to say anything, but Lam Kwok Tung is definitely leaning towards Li Yan.

And, the most interesting thing is that this is only a temporary replacement, but as long as there is this replacement, Lam Kwok-tung will have no way out. I am afraid that both the original chief Huang Chi-shing and the new head of Organized Crime and Triad Bureau will be wary of Lam Kwok-tung.

In fact, Lin Guodong had no other choice but to lean towards Li Yan. As long as he fell completely towards Li Yan, Li Yan would naturally exert force to help him straighten himself. If he was indecisive and wavering.

As long as Li Yan ignored the police, with Lam Kwok-tung's background, there was almost no chance that he would be promoted to Chief Superintendent. In just a moment, Yin Jianqiang understood Li Yan's plan and could not help but secretly applaud Li Yancheng for his scheming. This move not only stabilized the situation, appeased Huang Zhicheng and Organized Crime, but also won over Lam Kwok-tung. In the future, he could attack or defend, which was a good move.

Looking at the excited expression on Lin Guodong's face, Yin Jianqiang knew that Li Yan had made the right move again.

"Well, what Li Sir said makes sense!"

Yin Jianqiang followed up and said: "I also think Guodong is the most suitable candidate, in this case..."

"Guodong, I'll take care of you for a bit. While Chief Superintendent Huang Zhicheng is recovering from his injury, you will take on the burden of the three groups of O-Tribe and make sure the department operates normally and that no problems arise due to Huang Sir's absence."

“Yes, Director Yin!”

Lin Guodong stood up and saluted with an excited look. In the envious eyes of everyone, he said respectfully: "I will definitely live up to the entrustment of Director Yin, Li Sir, and Huang Sir. I will manage O Ji well and ensure that there will be no forks."

Lam Kwok Tung was indeed extremely excited, and even "entrusted" Huang Chi-shing, who was recuperating in the hospital, with his attitude.

I have to say that a superior like Li Yan is really powerful. He just expressed a little goodwill and immediately came back with a huge reward. This style of doing things is much more considerate than Huang Zhicheng.

Li Yan is putting the hat of Chief Superintendent in front of him, who wouldn't be tempted.

He is a senior superintendent of police. It can be said that when Li Yan was the leader of Group B in O-Triad Bureau, Lam Kwok-tung already had the rank of senior superintendent of police and had been in this position for six or seven years.

But there are only about 40 Chief Superintendents in the entire Hong Kong Island, and each of them is a very important official. Someone like him who has no background and no connections with the upper echelons will never be promoted even if he works for another six or seven years.

The Chief Superintendent is a reserve Assistant Commissioner. There is no seniority system. One can get promoted by accumulating experience and making contributions. There are many people who retire as Senior Superintendent after working for ten or eight years. No one dares to complain. For ordinary police officers, Senior Superintendent is the end of their career.

Lam Kwok-tung himself had never dreamed of being promoted to Chief Superintendent of Police, so he was rather selfless in his work. Relying on his seniority, he seemed to look down on everyone.

But now, suddenly there is an opportunity to move to the next level, how can Lin Guodong not be excited and excited.

Everyone understood Lin Guodong's current mood and was very envious.

At this moment, an idea suddenly came to Lin Guodong's mind.

Yes!

Huang Sir seems to be doing well in the hospital. It's best not to worry and just rest slowly. When I went to visit Huang Sir yesterday, the doctor said that he would have to lie down for more than half a year, and he couldn't do any strenuous exercise for the next one or two years.

Originally, Lam Kwok-tung was very anxious and hated Scarface for injuring Superintendent Wong. He thought more than once that even a broken arm was better than a broken leg.

Without Huang Sir, who can withstand the offensive of Li Yan and Yin Jianqiang?

But I didn't expect that the situation would change so bizarrely. After all the darkness, there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Huang Sir's accident actually brought me such a great favorable factor.

At this time, Lam Kwok Tung prayed secretly that Huang Sir would not get better too quickly, and he was secretly glad in his heart that Scarface was ruthless and caused Huang Sir to be absent.

This is more appropriate than throwing Mr. Huang down from the building!
If Huang Sir really died, the higher-ups would have sent a new person in no time, and there would be no need for someone to temporarily take charge of the work of Organized Crime and Triads. It would not be like it is now, where we have to take Huang Zhicheng's thoughts into consideration and let the people below take over temporarily to appease the hero.

That’s right, Huang Zhicheng was injured while on duty. In the eyes of the police senior management and countless citizens, he is a meritorious person and a hero.

Huang Zhicheng was injured but not dead, but he is indeed unable to work. If no replacement is found, what will happen to such a large department as the Organized Crime and Triads? If a replacement is found, the tea will be cold before this person leaves. Isn't it disheartening?

Even the top brass of the Police Force will consider this situation. In the short term, they can only find an internal person to replace Huang Zhicheng to take charge of the work.

Even if we want to replace someone new, we have to wait for a while.

And this period of time is Lin Guodong's opportunity.
