Climbing the Career Ladder

Recently, we have heard from many sources that the security situation in the district is very worrying, and there have been repeated cases of robbery by motorcycle. A woman had just withdrawn 3,000 yuan from an ATM, and when she left the house, she was snatched away by a masked man riding an unlicensed motorcycle. In addition, a female citizen was driving on the road after a night shift, and a motorcycle suddenly rushed out and snatched her purse that was placed in the front basket.

The carjackings initially occurred in southern Guangdong and southern Hunan. The overall security environment in Huainan Province was relatively good, but recently provinces such as Guangdong have focused on improving public security, so these gangs have fled to other provinces and cities.

Fang Zhicheng pays great attention to public security management, because it affects the safety index of citizens. A livable city should emphasize the rule of law and civilization, and should prevent the occurrence of violent incidents. If the public security environment is not good, outside companies will not be willing to settle in the local area, which will affect the development of the city in the long run.

Fang Zhicheng positioned Xiaguang as a "livable city" and used the word "livable" to attract many merchants to invest in Xiaguang. The violent incidents had undoubtedly touched his bottom line, so he took the initiative to convene a public security management meeting.

Xiang Xin reported: "After about a week of investigation, we have a preliminary understanding of the robbers' modus operandi. They are a group of at least five people. In addition to the robbers, there are four more people to provide windbreaks or assist. They are very experienced and fast in committing crimes, taking less than 30 seconds. At the same time, they also carry controlled knives, which is quite dangerous."

Fang Zhicheng frowned unhappily and said, "Old Xiang, I have a general understanding of these situations. You should be more direct and tell me when the robbers can be brought to justice. Because you also said that these people are organized and planned. If they are allowed to go unpunished for one day, it will pose a threat to the citizens."

Xiang Xin said with difficulty: "These people are all veterans. We retrieved the nearby surveillance video footage and found that they were carefully prepared. Their faces could not be seen clearly."

Fang Zhicheng pointed at the table unhappily and said, "As far as I know, you did retrieve the surveillance video footage, but it's not that these recording devices didn't record anything, but that many of them were not activated and were simply for display. Xiaguang District has been promoting the city's comprehensive public security monitoring system since 2006, and the government has invested a lot of money, all of which is the hard-earned money of the citizens. When these devices are needed, they are useless. Isn't this a disguised waste of money?"

Xiang Xin's scalp was numb. He had met Fang Zhicheng many times, but he rarely saw him so angry. Xiang Xin said truthfully: "District Chief Fang, these monitoring devices were all assembled by the city. After we found that many devices failed, we also reported them to the higher authorities, but we never received a response."

Fang Zhicheng's face became serious, and he questioned: "Don't shift the blame to others, look for the problem in yourself. Since the Municipal Bureau has not responded to you, why don't you find a way, such as reporting the problem to the district government?"

Xiang Xin smiled bitterly and said, "District Chief Fang, our Public Security Bureau did something wrong in this matter. We will definitely correct our work style in the future, continue to follow up on the problem, and be pragmatic and make progress."

Fang Zhicheng looked up and glanced at Zhao Qianhe, and he immediately felt a little unnatural.

Zhao Qianhe knew very well that Fang Zhicheng was attacking all over the place and making indirect accusations. It seemed that every word he said was directed at Xiang Xin, but in fact, every word was spoken to himself.

The installation of the video surveillance system equipment in the whole district was partly coordinated and arranged by the city, but a large part was installed by the district itself after applying for the corresponding financial funds. Zhao Qianhe was the main person in charge of this work. If you look closely, those useless surveillance equipment were independently installed by the district public security bureau at a later stage, and had nothing to do with the municipal bureau.

Zhao Qianhe felt a chill down his spine; he knew Fang Zhicheng was targeting him.

Although Xiang Xin is the director of the Public Security Bureau, he is young and not as influential as Zhao Qianhe. Zhao Qianhe makes it difficult for Xiang Xin to advance his work with just a little trickery. Xiang Xin invites Fang Zhicheng as a reinforcement to warn Zhao Qianhe and make him restrain himself a little.

The breakthrough point chosen by Fang Zhicheng was extremely sharp. Zhao Qianhe must have had something unclear about the district's surveillance video system. Once an official was involved in economic issues, it would be like being strangled.

Fang Zhicheng sighed and said, "Comrades in the public security system, overall, the public security situation in Xiaguang District has been very good in recent years, but we must be vigilant, and there are also big problems. In addition to the recent serial car robberies, other problems should not be underestimated. For example, in the East Station Business District, there is often a group of people from Xijiang. They seem to be setting up stalls and doing small businesses, but in fact they use this as a disguise to steal. This phenomenon must not be encouraged, and comrades need to pay serious attention and actively respond."

Xiang Xin wrote down Fang Zhicheng's request in his notebook and said firmly, "Please rest assured, District Chief Fang, we will start the work of rectifying public security from tomorrow. Within a month, we will solve the problem you raised. At the same time, we will gradually investigate and solve all other problems."

Fang Zhicheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Old Xiang, you are a new official. You must make every effort to do something practical. If you need the government to cooperate with you in doing something, you must tell me in time. I will cooperate with your work."

When Zhao Qianhe heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that Fang Zhicheng's attitude towards Xiang Xin was too obvious, and he just wanted to help him stabilize his position in the public security system.

After the meeting, Fang Zhicheng went into Director Xiang Xin's office. Xiang Xin poured Fang Zhicheng a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Your attitude in the meeting just now scared me. I thought the new director was going to prepare for your dismissal after only a few days in office."

Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly and said, "You still have to take the few issues I mentioned to heart and don't be careless."

Xiang Xin nodded and smiled, "District Chief Fang, I know what you mean. You are pointing me in the right direction. I just took office and my mind was a mess. I didn't know where to start. Now I understand. The first one is the car robbery case, and the second one is the Xijiang theft gang."

Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Xiang Xin's thinking was relatively clear. With a little guidance from him, he would know what to do. The car robbery case could be extended to the video surveillance management of the entire district. Because it was the project that Zhao Qianhe was mainly responsible for, any slight movement would constrain Zhao Qianhe. As for the problem of the theft gang in Western Xinjiang, it had been exposed many times by the TV station recently. If Xiang Xin could properly resolve the matter, he would undoubtedly do a good thing for the people, which would also increase his achievements.

Xiang Xin still felt somewhat touched by Fang Zhicheng's timely assistance. After all, the public security system is composed of a group of old hands, and their own abilities alone are not enough to convince the public. Fang Zhicheng took more severe measures, which was also targeted. After all, if you talk softly to some public security personnel in charge of public security and criminal investigation, they will not buy it at all.

According to Fang Zhicheng's plan, the best entry point for party and government work is the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs. Since an important chess piece has been placed in the public security system, it is natural to water it properly and let it thrive so that it can be used in the future.

Xiang Xin is relatively young, seven or eight years older than himself, so it is relatively easy to communicate with him. From the previous contacts, it can be seen that he is a person with ideas and thoughts on how to deal with problems. This is also the main reason why Fang Zhicheng is willing to train Xiang Xin.

After leaving the District Public Security Bureau, Guo Jinyuan started the car and asked, "Where are we going now?"

Fang Zhicheng thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back to work."

After the car had traveled a few dozen meters, Fang Zhicheng suddenly asked, "Old Guo, has your wife's problem been solved?"

Guo Jinyuan grinned and said, "Xiao Shang has made the arrangements for her, and she is expected to come to Hanzhou to work next month."

Fang Zhicheng nodded and said with a smile: "I have also mentioned the issue of the child's school to Xiaoliang. It is definitely the best school."

Guo Jinyuan smiled helplessly and said, "My kid is too useless. He is only thirteen or fourteen years old, but he often fights with others. Even if I let him go to the best school, I'm afraid it won't work out."

Fang Zhicheng said with emotion: "Old Guo, I am sorry for this. You have been following me everywhere for two years. The child has no father around and no one patiently teaches him, so small problems will naturally arise. But don't worry, when the whole family comes to Xiaguang, I will give you some relaxation. You don't need to follow me around all day."

Guo Jinyuan was not good at speaking, but he could hear the deep concern from Fang Zhicheng's mouth. He did not mention his family affairs. After Fang Zhicheng stabilized his steps, he immediately solved the problem for Guo Jinyuan. It was a blessing to have such a leader who cared about him.

Seeing the car speed increasing, Fang Zhicheng felt relieved. He decided to give certain benefits to the people around him. Take Lao Guo as an example. Although he didn't care much about material life, he had a family. If he wanted others to work hard for him, he should give him certain compensation.

Fang Zhicheng tilted his head, his eyes wandering on the scenery outside the window. Suddenly, Guo Jinyuan turned sharply in a direction, which scared Fang Zhicheng.

"What's going on?" Fang Zhicheng frowned. Lao Guo has always been a very steady driver. If this happened, there must be something serious going on.

Guo Jinyuan said gloomily, "Boss, we must be being followed. There is a black Passat behind us. It has been following us since we left the Public Security Bureau."

Fang Zhicheng knew that Guo Jinyuan had been a scout in the army before and had a natural sensitivity to such things. He said in a deep voice: "Wait until they catch up, I want to see who is so brave."

"This is a novice. He doesn't care about any skills at all. He just follows us closely, and his speed is completely based on ours. I will stop him at the next intersection." Guo Jinyuan said confidently.

Fang Zhicheng nodded and said, "Safety is the primary factor in everything. Don't force it."

Guo Jinyuan smiled and said, "Boss, just rest assured."
