AWB Chapter 676 Inspection
Chapter 676 Inspection
At the Special Zone port, a group of people were inspecting the situation along the flowing river. The two middle-aged men in the lead were Zhao Cheng and his six entourage, who had just arrived in the Special Zone by plane from Peking. Walking side by side with Zhao Cheng was Captain Li of the Special Zone.
Looking at the river in front of him, Zhao Cheng couldn't help but sigh at the torrent of history. Small things can be changed, but big things cannot be reversed!
Standing on the land of the special zone and looking at the industrial zone under rapid construction, Zhao Cheng knew that this was an industrial project built by Xiao Erduo according to his instructions.
The completed parts have already begun to generate significant profits! These light industrial factories alone can bring Xiao Erduo's company hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars in profits!
Within the company now, whether it is the veterans from Beiping in the past or the big guys who joined after Mingzhu, who doesn’t obey Xiao Erduo’s orders?
On the other side, Xu Damao, following Zhao Cheng's suggestion and using the Lou family's start-up capital, created a complex that integrates dining, entertainment, and accommodation. It could be considered another plaza!
Now the couple has become a household name in the SAR as patriotic businessmen! Every year's profits flow into the pockets of the Xu family like water!
However, he did not directly notify the two of them when he came this time, nor did he meet with them. The first reason he came this time was to inspect the border defense work here!
The key point is those who want to smuggle to the other side!
"Mr. Zhao, in this year, we have arrested more than 20,000 illegal immigrants, most of whom were sent back to their place of origin for strengthened management. A small number of people whose information was obviously problematic have been handed over to the public security authorities!" The captain of the Special Zone Armed Police Force looked at Zhao Cheng, his eyes full of admiration.
When the Special Zone was first established, he was on duty here, but at that time he was just a platoon leader! Now he has become a full regimental-level detachment commander, and the speed of his promotion can be said to be very fast.
All this was due to Zhao Cheng's promotion. The commander-in-chief not only promoted him, but also taught him many tips to prevent smuggling.
The result of this is that 80% of the 50,000 to 60,000 illegal immigrants each year can safely reach the other side!
And what about the rest? Not even 20%. Most of them were caught while trying to smuggle across the border, and most of them never found a chance to smuggle across the border at all! Before they could smuggle across the border, they were forced back by the border guards through strict defense measures.
Maybe you’d want to try it once or twice, but if you do it more than once, will you still have the guts to do it? So now the number of illegal immigrants is only around 20,000 to 30,000 per year, but with so many being caught, how many can actually make it to the other side?
"Don't let your guard down! Your work has just begun. Now is the period of severe crackdown in the country. Those who have committed crimes will try every possible means to escape the sanctions of our law! And the most effective way is to run away!" Zhao Cheng said seriously.
"Mr. Zhao, we have begun to implement the new combat plan. We will try our best to make sure that none of those criminals can escape!" Captain Li said, standing at attention.
"Don't take it lightly, don't be proud! Do you understand?" Zhao Cheng patted his shoulder and said.
"Yes!" said Captain Li.
"Tomorrow night, I will take six people to the other side. You arrange the boat and we will go over secretly. Do you understand?" Zhao Cheng whispered to the captain.
"Mr. Zhao, what requires you to go there in person? Isn't it too dangerous?" Captain Li asked in surprise.
"There is no need to ask what you shouldn't ask! I am going there this time as the Deputy Minister of Public Security, but I can't let the people on the other side know, so it must be kept secret! If anyone else knows about it besides you, they will be subject to military law!" Zhao Cheng said seriously.
"Yes!" Captain Li also knew that his rank was not enough to know about this matter. Asking about it just now was already a violation! Now he could only obey orders.
At night, a large fishing boat appeared near the Longgutan Pier. Zhao Cheng stopped the boat and took seven staff members to a small fishing boat, slowly moving towards the opposite side.
Half an hour later, Zhao Cheng and his party set foot on the land of Mingzhu. Although people here usually only park some small fishing boats, it is always better to be careful!
"Mr. Zhao, where are we going next?" Secretary Wang asked curiously.
Although he was just a secretary, everyone around Zhao Cheng was incredibly skilled. Furthermore, Secretary Wang was not only skilled but also a college student, so Zhao Cheng brought him along.
"Where can you find it?" Zhao Cheng asked with a smile.
This question confused Secretary Wang. He had just asked out of habit. But he forgot that this was Mingzhu, and he had never been here before, and he didn't know the way.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao, I forgot this is Mingzhu, not the mainland!" Secretary Wang quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, his face flushed.
"Okay, I'm just kidding. The people who are coming to pick us up are here!" Zhao Cheng pointed to a convoy of Mercedes-Benz cars coming from a distance.
The security guards behind him wanted to be on guard, but were stopped by Zhao Cheng, who told them not to make a fuss because the people coming were his own.
Sure enough, the convoy stopped not far away. Two people got out of the first car. They were Xiao Erduo and Lian Hu. Although the people who got out of the four cars behind were dressed very formally, they did not look like good people at first glance. They were the eight hall masters under Xiao Erduo.
Zhao Cheng contacted Xiao Erduo through a factory in the mainland during the day, told him to come to Mingzhu tonight, and asked him to pick him up secretly.
So Xiao Erduo had to go in person, and a few hall masters drove to pick him up, without bringing anyone else.
"Mr. Zhao! Welcome to Mingzhu!" Little Ear was surprised when he saw Zhao Cheng, whose hair was only a little whiter than the last time they met.
Others may not know the specifics, but Little Ear knows that when he first met Zhao Cheng, Zhao Cheng looked so young, except that he didn't have any white hair at that time!
Now, apart from some white hair, Zhao Cheng's face only has a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes! It has been more than 30 years!
"Okay, don't be polite, let's go straight to where we live first! This is not a place to talk outside!" Zhao Cheng waved his hand, asked the several hall masters who wanted to follow and salute to stop, and said softly.
"Mr. Zhao, this way please!" Xiao Erduo quickly led Zhao Cheng to the first car. Secretary Wang also followed, but he sat in the passenger seat, Xiao Erduo sat in the back, and Lian Hu drove!
The other six staff members got into the car at the back in groups of two, and disappeared to the beach under the cover of night.
