Fang Lang looked at Mayor Scalia's expression and said seriously:
“São Paulo, my hometown, has a unique geographical location and climatic conditions.
The country's economic strength has always ranked among the top two in Brazil. However, due to the poor security environment, a large amount of capital outflow will occur.
Let São Paulo's future slide into an unpredictable abyss.
Then as managers, we all have an unshirkable responsibility.
The police play a decisive role in the quality of the regional security environment.
If the mayor really wants to change the security environment in São Paulo, it is very necessary to thoroughly reshuffle the police system.
Let the police in Sao Paulo take on the great mission of maintaining social order."
Mayor Scalia saw Fang Lang's serious expression and realized that Fang Lang was not joking with him.
...
...
In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t want to change the social situation in São Paulo, but the police department is not managed by him alone.
He only has the power to appoint the police chief, but the police is a relatively independent violent agency.
There is also a national police headquarters above, which is responsible for managing the police across the country.
If São Paulo were to carry out a large-scale overhaul of its police system alone, it would likely face resistance from police headquarters.
His reforms could not be carried out.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh:
"Fang, you have to understand that there are some things that I can't do just because I want to.
You were able to carry out reforms successfully in Natal because the timing was right.
During the military rule, the police headquarters also lost its management authority over its subordinate police departments.
That's why you are able to carry out drastic reforms so smoothly.
And now Sao Paulo has obviously lost such an opportunity."
Fang Lang's heart moved when he heard Scalia's words.
It seems that the reform he carried out in Natal actually touched the interests of some people in the police headquarters!
Could the Ministry of Justice's actions against itself be related to this incident?
However, it stands to reason that a police station in a remote place like Natal would not allow the police headquarters or the Ministry of Justice to act so recklessly!
Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, Fang Lang looked at the mayor and said:
“If you can’t reform the police department, why are you talking about studying police training and opening a police academy?”
“I can’t directly ask for reforms in the police department, but now because of your assassination in Sao Paulo.
I can order the São Paulo Police Department to make corrections!
Since it is a rectification and all police officers need to undergo systematic training, the police headquarters certainly cannot refuse.
The establishment of a police academy is simply to open up a new channel for supplying police officers to the police department.
Every year, the police department recruits police officers from the society. The police academy we run can directly send high-quality police officers who have received professional training to the police department, saving them the training costs. What reason do they have to refuse? "
Mayor Scalia smiled.
Fang Lang seemed to be thinking about something. In fact, there was no formal police school in Brazil at present. The police school he set up in Natal was considered groundbreaking.
Most other countries do not have professional police schools at present.
Most police majors are offered in military academies.
But Brazil doesn’t even have a military academy now, so the role of a military academy is too great for Fang Lang.
Can the police school he opened in Natal be upgraded?
Fang Lang, who had just cooperated with the Air Force to open an aviation academy, was very excited.
If the police academy was under his control, Fang Lang would stuff all the retired soldiers from his army into the police academy.
Once the soldiers graduate from the police academy and enter the police force, just imagine what a powerful force they will become.
Thinking of this, Fang Lang no longer hesitated and spoke directly:
"Mr. Mayor, I have opened the first proper police academy in Natal.
I think if I continue to run a police academy in São Paulo, there will be no need.
Can your São Paulo Police Department directly entrust our Natal Police School to carry out police officer training?
The same will be true when we recommend graduates from the Natal Police Academy to work at the Sao Paulo Police Department.”
Mayor Scalia obviously didn't understand why Fang Lang suddenly offered to help São Paulo train police.
For the moment, I couldn't figure out what benefit this would bring to the other party.
However, at this moment he was obviously the one who felt guilty towards Fang Lang. Even if it was out of consideration for compensating Fang Lang, he had no reason to refuse this request which could not be considered a demand.
"Really? If so, it couldn't be better.
Please rest assured that I will arrange for the Sao Paulo City Government to allocate a special amount of funds to support the construction of the police academy and the training of police officers. "
Fang Lang didn't expect that the other party would actually express their willingness to allocate funds to support the construction of the police academy. This was considered an unexpected surprise.
He nodded in satisfaction, and the expression on his face gradually relaxed.
When Mayor Scalia saw Fang Lang's expression, he felt a little relieved.
Although the two can be considered friends, the relationship between friends also needs to be maintained. This incident almost caused the other party to lose his life.
It doesn't mean that we can just let it go just because we are friends.
What's more, his friend's performance was obviously not up to standard.
It was not until today that I came to Fangyuan Group to express my condolences to Mr. Fang Xinshan.
Fang Lang remembered what the other party had just said, that his actions of opening a police academy in Natal and training police officers might have touched upon the interests and rights of certain people in the Police Headquarters or the Ministry of Justice.
After thinking for a while, he said:
“If the Sao Paulo city government pays the cost of police training to the Natal Police Academy, will there be any negative impact?
It looks like our police academy in Natal will have to change its name.
A police academy without the participation of the police headquarters and the Ministry of Justice is obviously inappropriate.
Maybe I should have a chat with the bigwigs at the Justice Department.”
A gleam of light flashed in Fang Lang's eyes.
Now that he had been assassinated by a big shot in the Ministry of Justice, he could take revenge privately and eliminate a certain big shot.
But this incident does not mean that the Ministry of Justice can get away with it.
Since I don't plan to make a big deal out of this matter, can I use it to make some deals with the Ministry of Justice?
Scalia understood Fang Lang's idea immediately after hearing the music, and nodded quickly:
"It would be great if the police academy could obtain authorization from the Ministry of Justice or the police headquarters."
He looked at Fang Lang, who seemed to be still thinking about how to convince the Ministry of Justice or the police headquarters.
Scalia thought for a moment before speaking softly:
“Fang, our St. Paul Police Department has been under internal investigation since Sebastiao Hodges was involved in this incident.
A lot of work came to a standstill, and for a while I didn't have any suitable candidate for police chief.
I wonder if General Fang can recommend one for me?"
Fang Lang, who was holding a teacup and thinking, heard the mayor's words and looked up at him calmly.
I understand that the other party is here to offer benefits today.
Police Chief Sebastiao Hodges is definitely in trouble this time. Even if the investigation results ultimately show that he was wronged, he will not be able to continue to stay in the position of police chief.
Moreover, after talking with Sebastiao Hodges today, it has been confirmed that the enemy comes from the top of the Ministry of Justice.
He had no chance to get away, and could only take the blame on himself a month later to end the matter.
The police chief must definitely be reappointed.
The appointment of the police chief is the right of every elected mayor.
Now Scalia took the initiative to ask Fang Lang to recommend a new candidate for police chief, which was obviously a favor to him and to eliminate the impact of his assassination in São Paulo.
If Fang Lang refused such a good thing, he would be very stupid.
Fang Lang smiled slightly and said calmly:
"No problem, we are good friends, I must help with this kind of small favor."
Mayor Scalia smiled and didn't care about Fang Lang's behavior of pretending to help after taking the benefits.
We are all foxes. We just need to understand what is going on and don’t need to care about the details.
"Thank you so much, General Fang.
I hope the person you recommend can take office as soon as possible.
In addition, a cleanup operation against the evil forces in Sao Paulo was quickly launched.
Restore the good security environment in Sao Paulo as soon as possible.
To safeguard the economic development of São Paulo."
Perhaps in Mayor Scalia's view, letting the new director lead the cleanup of evil forces is a challenge.
But Fang Lang was very happy to take the job.
After all, using the power of the police to clear obstacles for the development of Hong Yitang is the best thing to do.
This is not a challenge at all! This is actually the second great benefit!
Fang Lang looked at Mayor Scalia seriously, wanting to confirm whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, and whether he really didn't understand or was pretending not to understand the benefits of this.
This incident is obviously not worth the huge price the other party has to pay.
If Fang Lang said that the other party didn't know what benefits this anti-crime operation could bring, Fang Lang would never believe it.
It seems that the other party’s purpose of coming here this time is not simple!
For a moment, Fang Lang couldn't figure out what the other party's purpose was.
However, Fang Lang is not the kind of person who would hesitate. Since he couldn't think of it, he might as well ask directly.
"Mr. Mayor has given me such a great benefit, I wonder what I need to give in return?"
After hearing what Fang Lang said, Scalia burst into laughter.
He knew that the purpose of his coming here today had been achieved.
At least, the incident of Fang Lang and his son being attacked in Sao Paulo has been put to rest.
Fang Lang will not make a fuss about this matter anymore.
“Hahaha… General Fang is indeed a straightforward person. It is my honor to be friends with General Fang.
Fangyuan Group is also a company with a sense of social responsibility.
I heard that Fangyuan Group recently established a Fangyuan Group General Trade Union and set up branches in its various branch companies.
This union developed rapidly in a short period of time, and almost all workers of Fangyuan Group joined this union organization.
And this union is not under the leadership of the Labour Party, is that true?"
I have to say that Mayor Scalia is indeed a qualified politician.
Sharp eyes and quick reactions.
Since the trade union was mentioned, it is obvious that they have taken into account the powerful influence of this trade union.
“Hahaha… Mr. Mayor is very well-informed!
Yes, this is true. Please rest assured, Mr. Mayor, our Fangyuan Group is a business group, not a political family.
The purpose of establishing this union is to avoid being exploited by a single political group.
We don’t want our workers to become tools for others.”
Scalia had to admire Fang Lang. He had already blocked his way before he even started to make his demands.
It seems that he is saying that he does not want the trade unions to be used by the Labour Party, but isn't he also reminding himself?
Will Fangyuan Group’s trade union organization also not be used by him and become his tool?
If you want to borrow the power of Fangyuan Group’s trade union organization, you must go through Fangyuan Group’s organization.
