Chapter 25 Taking office!

Chapter 25 Taking office!

At around seven o'clock in the morning, Jia Dongming rode his bicycle to the entrance of the steel rolling mill.

At this time, the security guard on duty at the steel mill gate was Wang Jianjun, who was on duty yesterday. When he saw Jia Dongming, he immediately saluted him and greeted him respectfully and seriously: "Chief Jia! Good morning!"

When Jia Dongming saw Wang Jianjun saluting him, he immediately saluted back and said in a serious tone: "Comrade Wang Jianjun! Good morning!"

After Wang Jianjun and Jia Dongming greeted each other, he thought of what the director had told him when he came to work in the morning, and reported to Jia Dongming: "Chief Jia! Director Lin is waiting for you in the office. He asked you to go directly to the office to find him when you arrive."

Yesterday at noon while having lunch in the canteen, Li Huaide told Jia Dongming that Director Lin of the Security Department had been in a half-working, half-resting state because he had been injured on the battlefield. Once he took office as the Chief of Security, he would take over all the work of the Security Department.

When Jia Dongming learned that Director Lin was waiting for him in the office, he immediately rode his bicycle towards the Security Department office building.

Soon Jia Dongming arrived at the Security Department, at the door of Director Lin's office. He saw a middle-aged man sitting in the office reading a newspaper, so he reached out and knocked on the door. Then he stepped into the office, saluted Director Lin with a serious face, and said to Director Lin in a very serious tone: "Director Lin! Jia Dongming from the Special Operations Battalion of the 18th Army's XX Division is here to report to you."

When Director Lin saw Jia Dongming walking into the office from outside, he stood up from his desk, saluted Jia Dongming, and then shook hands with Jia Dongming. He said to Jia Dongming in a friendly manner: "Comrade Jia Dongming! On behalf of the Security Department of the Steel Rolling Mill, I welcome you to join our big family."

After shaking hands with Director Lin, Jia Dongming politely said to Director Lin: "Director Lin! Don't worry! I will definitely do my best and will never let you down."

After hearing Jia Dongming's promise, Director Lin first asked Jia Dongming to take a seat, and then introduced him to him: "Comrade Dongming! My superiors arranged for me to serve as the head of the security department at the steel mill mainly because of my health. They did not allow me to do intensive work, so they asked me to manage the security department of the steel mill in a half-work, half-rest mode."

"Because of my physical condition, I have been lax in my management of the security department over the past two years, which has led to a negative work attitude among the staff in the security department. They are taking a lax approach to carry out the security tasks assigned to us by our superiors."

"Not long ago, I received a notice from my superiors saying that a combat hero would come to the steel mill to take over my job. From that day on, I have been looking forward to your arrival. Now I have finally got you here, and I can finally retire to the second line."

After hearing what Director Lin said, Jia Dongming smiled and said to Director Lin: "Director Lin! Health is the capital of revolution! From now on, you can rest assured to recuperate at home. With me in the security department, there will definitely be no trouble."

When Director Lin heard what Jia Dongming said, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He introduced Jia Dongming, "Dongming! I feel relieved when you said this. Now let me introduce you to the general situation of our security department!"

"Our security department has two departments. The field department is divided into three battalions. The first battalion is responsible for the security of the factory area, the second battalion is responsible for the security and patrol of the factory area, and the third battalion is responsible for the security and patrol of the factory living area." "Each battalion has a captain, and there are two squads under it. Each squad has 187 members, with a squad leader and members! The three battalions together have a total of people."

"The logistics department is responsible for the logistics support of our security department, as well as the management and maintenance of firearms. It has one logistics section chief, seven canteen staff, six gun store managers, two warehouse managers, and four logistics cleaning staff."

"Our security department is under dual management. It is directly under the internal security department of the Public Security Bureau and is under the jurisdiction of Li Huaide, the deputy director of the steel mill who is in charge of logistics. However, the steel mill does not have the power to appoint and dismiss personnel in our security department. Even though we are nominally under the jurisdiction of the steel mill, we have the right to handle cases independently. Even if the leaders of the steel mill commit crimes, we have the power to deal with them."

After listening to Director Lin's introduction, Jia Dongming finally had a general understanding of the structure of the steel rolling mill's security department. At the same time, he also truly realized how powerful the security department was in this era.

After Director Lin waited until Jia Dongming had completely memorized what he had said, he stood up from his desk and said to Jia Dongming with a smile, "Comrade Dongming! Now I will take you to the gun depot to get your gun back, and then I will gather the team members in the department and introduce you to everyone."

Soon Jia Dongming followed Director Li to the armory of the Security Department. When he saw the weapons displayed in the armory, he secretly exclaimed in his heart: "Wow! This is not the armory of the Security Department. In addition to guns and ammunition, there are even mortars and anti-aircraft guns."

Jia Dongming received a Browning M1910 pistol, three magazines and fifty rounds of special bullets from the armory, and then followed Director Lin to the place where the security team members usually trained.

Because they received the advance notice, except for the on-duty personnel of the Security Department, everyone else gathered at the training ground early in the morning to prepare to welcome their new superior.

"Comrades! Let me introduce to you all. This is our new chief of the Security Department, Comrade Jia Dongming!" After Director Lin and other members of the Security Department had gathered, they introduced Jia Dongming to the members of the Security Department present.

As soon as Director Lin finished speaking, warm applause broke out in the training ground.

Jia Dongming looked at his subordinates who were applauding in front of him, and waited until the applause died down before he spoke: "Comrades! My name is Jia Dongming. From today on, we are comrades who eat from the same pot. I hope that all comrades will support my work in the future."

"Of course, our security department respects the strong. If you think you are stronger than me, you can challenge me at any time. If you beat me, your salary will be raised. In addition, I will pay for dinner for all the comrades in the department. If you can't beat me, you only need to pay 30 yuan and give all the comrades in the department a meat dish."
