153: Chapter 151: Proposed Promotion to Director!

Every year from July to August, the grassroots Police Stations of the city and County Bureaus carry out corresponding personnel transfers.

Most of the new police officers who have finished their training are also arranged to enter various grassroots Police Stations in rural towns at this time.

Therefore, July and August are the days for a major reshuffle of the County Public Security Bureau.

In addition, according to the term of office, this year is also the time for the promotion, appointment, and dismissal of leaders above the section level and below the division level.

Since March, Liao Jiancheng has successively sought out and talked with the chiefs and Instructors of the twenty-four township Police Stations in the county.

Combining this with their usual performance and achievements, the best were selected to promote a group of cadres with excellent comprehensive quality, firm ideological awareness, and fine style and character.

Opening the drawer, Liao Jiancheng pulled out a list of proposed promotions. After reading it from beginning to end, he wrote Yang Tian's name in the last vacant spot.

After finishing, he immediately dialed the Office Director's number and asked him to notify all members of the bureau's Party Committee to hold a meeting in the bureau's conference room at 2:30 PM.

—

Time quickly arrived at 2:30 PM.

All members of the bureau's Party Committee arrived half an hour early.

Because they all knew that Liao Jiancheng's purpose for calling them to the meeting was the long-awaited discussion on personnel transfers and the list of proposed appointments, dismissals, and promotions.

Some were happy and some were worried. The expressions of the Political Commissar, Cheng Duxiu, and the Deputy Political Commissar were not good, because during the process of discussing the Yucheng Hospital case, they had cast dissenting votes; not only that, but some had even intervened to block the law enforcement process.

Fortunately, the matter eventually reached a nearly perfect conclusion; otherwise, they had no idea how great the consequences would have been.

“Ahem!”

Liao Jiancheng walked in through the door. Upon seeing him, everyone immediately returned to their seats and quieted down.

Liao Jiancheng took his seat and, without much nonsense, took out a list from his bag and looked at everyone.

“This is the list of proposed early retirement personnel. We will vote by a show of hands one by one. If more than half agree, it will be considered passed.”

After saying that, Liao Jiancheng read out the first name.

“Shi Zili, 54 years old, has been in the police force for thirty-two years, has a junior college degree, and is currently a member of the Party Committee, Deputy Secretary, and Political Commissar.”

As soon as this name was announced, everyone was surprised.

According to the legal retirement age, Political Commissar Shi could serve at least one more term. The sudden proposal for his early retirement was inevitably due to his involvement in the Yucheng Hospital case.

After speaking, Liao Jiancheng looked up at everyone. “Those who agree to Political Commissar Shi's early retirement, please raise your hand!”

The other party committee members looked at each other with difficulty on their faces. At that moment, Liao Jiancheng raised his hand without hesitation.

Following closely behind, Fang Yihong and Liu Dachui raised their hands.

Seeing Liao Jiancheng raise his hand, the others immediately followed suit.

In the end, only Cheng Duxiu and the Deputy Political Commissar did not raise their hands.

“Good, eight votes to two. The resolution is passed.”

Liao Jiancheng said bluntly, then looked at Political Commissar Shi Zili. “Does Political Commissar Shi have anything to say?”

Political Commissar Shi shook his head.

He could only blame himself for his weak ideological awareness and political stance.

If responsibility were to be pursued for the Yucheng Hospital incident, he would certainly be unable to escape blame. Now, if the County Bureau hadn't fought a beautiful turnaround and blocked a wave of bullets for him, the consequences would not have been as simple as early retirement.

Clearly, Liao Jiancheng had given him some face, and he could only take it and leave it at that.

“The second person on the proposed early retirement list is Cheng Duxiu, 55 years old, has been in the police force for thirty-four years, has a junior college degree, and is currently a member of the Party Committee and Deputy Director.”

“Let's vote!”

After Liao Jiancheng finished speaking, he raised his hand directly.

Similarly, everyone else raised their hands. Cheng Duxiu glanced around at everyone.

When a wall is about to fall, everyone gives it a push. Cheng Duxiu covered his face. Like Shi Zili, he could only accept his bad luck.

The subsequent list of proposed early retirements also included Deputy Political Commissar Ouyang Yunpeng, Cyber Police Brigade Captain Fu Yu, as well as five Police Station chiefs and four Police Station Instructors.

All these lists were passed.

Then, Liao Jiancheng took out another list of proposed promotions.

He looked at Fang Yihong with a hint of praise and recognition in his expression.

“The person proposed for promotion to party committee member and Political Commissar is the current party committee member and current chief of the Yucheng Police Station, Fang Yihong.”

As soon as the name was announced, all the burning gazes focused on Fang Yihong. Although all the committee members felt inner envy or even jealousy, they also knew that Fang Yihong's proposed promotion was well-deserved.

During this period, Fang Yihong had been in the spotlight throughout the province and even the whole country. The bureau's third-class merits, second-class merits, and even first-class merits all came from the Yucheng Police Station.

Furthermore, regarding the recent Yucheng Hospital fraud and intentional injury case, Fang Yihong had taken the lead and set an example. This was how he won a good reputation among people nationwide and enhanced the influence and status of the Yucheng County Public Security Bureau in the province.

So they admired the promotion of Fang Yihong to Political Commissar from the bottom of their hearts. Fang Yihong also fully possessed the qualifications and track record.

“Those in favor, please raise your hands!” Liao Jiancheng said and immediately chose to raise his hand.

The next second, everyone below the stage raised their hands one after another.

Liao Jiancheng glanced at everyone, a smile appearing on his face.

“Good, passed unanimously. Next, we propose to promote Liu Dachui to Deputy Director. Those in favor, raise your hands.”

Liao Jiancheng didn't raise his hand immediately, but Fang Yihong was the first to do so. Once Fang Yihong raised his hand, many people followed.

Then Liao Jiancheng also raised his hand. In the end, except for Cheng Duxiu, everyone else cast a vote in favor.

Next was the list of personnel proposed for promotion to station chief, Instructor, and deputy chief.

Zhu Zhipeng, deputy chief of the Yucheng Police Station, is proposed for promotion to Captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment.

Luo Dichang, a Second-class Superintendent at the Yucheng Police Station, is proposed for promotion to deputy chief of the Yucheng Police Station.

...

All these lists passed the resolution.

However, at the very end, Liao Jiancheng suddenly dropped a bombshell. He looked at everyone calmly.

“The last promotion list: Yang Tian, twenty-three years old, bachelor's degree, currently deputy chief and level 4 assistant police officer of the Yucheng Police Station. He has successively won three collective third-class merits, three collective second-class merits, three individual second-class merits, and one individual first-class merit. It is now proposed to promote him to...”

Liao Jiancheng paused intentionally.

Everyone looked at him, curious and expectant about which position he would promote Yang Tian to.

“It is now proposed to promote him exceptionally to member of the County Bureau's Party Committee and Chief of the Yucheng Police Station!”

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sudden uproar below the stage.

“This, this, this... it's against the regulations, isn't it? A twenty-three-year-old level 4 assistant police officer with a public institution career establishment being appointed as a member of the County Bureau's Party Committee? There's no precedent in the whole country, right?”

“That's right, County Magistrate Liao. Setting aside his abilities for a moment, his experience, seniority, and background are not yet sufficient to qualify for the position of a party committee member, are they?”

Cheng Duxiu frowned upon hearing this, and his face immediately darkened.

“I resolutely oppose this proposal!”
