One cannot fight against an organization. Even Wang Yaozu cannot 'lift the lid' regardless of the overall reputation of the police force, even if he is very angry that these people have caused him trouble and made him uneasy.
Therefore, the commendation meeting still needs to be held!
As the planner of the entire operation, Jiang Yaowei came on stage, awarded honors, received awards, spoke, and gave speeches.
The first person to take action, Zhang Zaishan, who captured Hong Jibiao and his gang and intercepted 200 million Hong Kong dollars in stolen money, also had to go on stage to receive an award, a promotion, a salary increase, and deliver an important speech, and the presenter was Wang Yaozu.
"Many people asked me why I chose to do bomb disposal, including my girlfriend. I shared a short story with them called "The Mouse Hangs a Bell"... In my heart, justice is above my life.
…”
"It's ironic, isn't it?" In the audience, Wang Yaozu sat back on a chair with a smile as warm as the sun. Looking at Zhang Zaishan who was talking eloquently, he whispered: "If justice really takes precedence over life,
Come on, then we won’t let those guys run away without a trace.”
Hong Jipeng ran away, which was not beyond Wang Yaozu's expectation. As long as he was not an iron-headed boy, he could easily find a boat and escape overnight.
"Isn't this normal?" Raymond glanced at Wang Yaozu, "After all, we are all human, and you weren't like this before. Why have you become sentimental recently? Because you have a child? Your heart has become softer?
"
"Tch, will I be soft-hearted?" Wang Yaozu blinked blankly, then sneered, "You are overthinking."
As he spoke, he took out a small notebook and made some gestures.
Raymond:???
It’s too much, it’s not that bad, it’s not that bad!
"Besides, what do you mean, I was like this before!" Wang Yaozu glanced sideways at his eldest nephew and said with an upright face: "I, Wang Yaozu, never take up cases. I hate taking up cases the most. I hate taking long-term fishing the most!"
Raymond looked sideways at Wang Yaozu, and three words popped out of his mouth, "Johnny Wang."
"I don't know Johnny Wang, and I don't know any hospital military warehouse. It doesn't exist, so why bother!" Wang Yaozu rolled his eyes.
Raymond chuckled and said nothing.
"Why are you laughing? I am trying to support a case. What I call is careful investigation, what I call serious and responsible, what I call accurate!"
"Okay, I'm going to let the long-term big fish go, so what, I can handle it, I didn't cause any accidental casualties from the beginning to the end, I dare to play, that's because I have the ability, they follow me
Can it be compared?"
"Well, it really can't be compared." Raymond nodded in agreement.
"That's it." After the commendation meeting, Wang Yaozu Shi Shiran stood up.
"Where are you going?" Raymond turned and asked.
"I won't attend the buffet. There will be a meeting later, and the Security Bureau is taking the lead. Damn, I'm either in a meeting or walking on the way to the meeting all day long. I'm so annoyed." Wang Yaozu waved his hand and turned away.
go out.
The meeting took place at the Security Bureau, which is one of the decision-making levels of Hong Kong Island. All six disciplinary forces in Hong Kong are under the management of the Security Bureau, which is considered the immediate superior of the police force.
The conference room is not big, with a total of eight people sitting there. On the police side are Director Zhuo Jingquan, Criminal Department Wang Yaozu, Commissioner of Customs Guan Haishan, Director of the Trade Management Office Yu Mingjun, Financial Secretary of Hong Kong Island, and the Inland Revenue Department
Director, and the remaining two people are the Director of Security and the new Deputy Director.
"Now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting." Director of Security Twin Coker said: "The purpose of this meeting is to solve the problem of tobacco smuggling that has become increasingly rampant in recent years. Every year, tobacco smuggling is smuggled into Hong Kong Island.
It has brought a lot of hidden dangers to safety and also caused a lot of economic losses. Please give us the specific data, Mr. Linton of the Taxation Bureau."
"That's right, the current tax on tobacco in Hong Kong Island is like this. Every 1,000 cigarettes are levied with a tax of 1,906 yuan, an average of 1.9 yuan per cigarette, cigars are 2,455 per kilogram, mainland cooked cigarettes are 468 per kilogram, and other made tobacco
2,309 yuan per kilogram. Any cigarette longer than 90 mm (excluding any filter tip or cigarette holder), each additional 90 mm or less than 90 mm will be regarded as another cigarette."
After hearing what Linton said, Wang Yaozu was stunned. Are the taxes on cigarettes so high? For every cigarette smoked, the government must pay 2 yuan?
"Currently, the annual tobacco tax revenue on Hong Kong Island is about 20 billion Hong Kong dollars. However, due to the large amount of smuggled cigarettes and black smoke, we lose more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in tobacco tax revenue every year. This amount is too great, gentlemen.
,So we must intensify our crackdown on tobacco smuggling."
20 billion a year, that's not every day... Wang Yaozu calculated in his mind, the tobacco tax alone costs more than 54 million every day!
And the tax loss of more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars is even higher than the so-called drug trafficking volume... No wonder the Hong Kong government is anxious, it is indeed a bit too damn much.
Sure enough, there is nothing more profitable than opening a government. This is completely robbing... No, this is much faster than robbing money.
(PS: The country’s annual military expenditure is not as much as the annual tobacco tax... Great smokers have defended the great motherland!)
After the tax bureau finished talking about the annual losses, everyone turned their attention to the Customs Commissioner Guan Haishan.
After all, combating smuggling is first and foremost a customs issue, while the main responsibility of the police is to maintain the stability and tranquility of social security. Even the marine police department does not focus on smuggling.
"The customs has been increasing the intensity of recovery, but..." Guan Haishan's face was not good, and he paused heavily at this point, "but the customs personnel are limited and their energy is limited, and tobacco smuggling has certain special characteristics.
Customs is currently overwhelmed."
"Let's talk about the specific problem. We have called in everyone today, especially the police, to solve the problem." The security chief said.
Guan Haishan nodded and said: "Tobacco smuggling is different from other smuggling. The people involved in smuggling are extremely complex. It ranges from some individuals who bring more tobacco when they come to Hong Kong, to some small organizations smuggling it from neighboring countries through fishing boats, cargo ships, etc."
Entering the port, there are hundreds of boxes or dozens of boxes. Unlike those drug criminals, many of the people who smuggle tobacco into Hong Kong Island are people with little criminal record. His identity may be a sailor on a cargo ship, or someone
The employees of the transportation company secretly smuggled some and hid them in an inconspicuous location. The number of participants was too large and scattered, so it was impossible to investigate." Guan Haishan Tantanshou, this kind of sporadic and small-scale smuggling behavior cannot be investigated at all.
The labor cost is too high and completely out of proportion to the harvest.
After another discussion on the issue of tobacco smuggling, the target finally fell on a large tobacco smuggling group. Moreover, due to insufficient customs police force and other reasons, the party responsible for this case became the police force.
This operation was named "Operation Smoking", and the person in charge was Customs Commissioner Guan Haishan, Police Commissioner Zhuo Jingquan, and the person directly responsible for the first operation, Criminal Department, Wang Yaozu.
