Chapter 3418
The Haihan Security Department and the Military Intelligence Bureau are both intelligence agencies. The former is under the direct jurisdiction of the Executive Committee, while the latter is under the Ministry of Defense. The difference between the two mainly lies in the business field. The direction of the Military Intelligence Bureau is mainly external, while the Ministry of Security has to take into account both internal and external considerations.
It seems that the Ministry of Security has greater authority, but in the direction of external intelligence, the Military Intelligence Bureau is backed by troops stationed in various places, and its strength is obviously much stronger than the Ministry of Security, which is short of manpower.
Especially in recent years, the Haihan area has expanded rapidly, and the development speed of the Ministry of Security has been unable to keep up. The Haihan Army and the Military Intelligence Bureau are inherently integrated. Wherever the army's troops go, there must be coordinated actions by the Military Intelligence Bureau. When there is a shortage of manpower, they can be drawn from the army at any time. The efficiency of overseas operations is much higher than that of the Ministry of Security.
The Sing Tao Region has occupied these islands in the northern part of the Strait of Malacca for more than half a year, but the Ministry of Security has not established a local branch. It’s not that they don’t want to, but they really can’t spare any extra manpower, let alone cooperate with the military. competition.
Nowadays, even for a project like shipbuilding that seems to have nothing to do with intelligence work, the Ministry of Security cannot compete with the army, which makes Zhang Qianzhi somewhat depressed.
However, as Bai Kesi said, the Zhang family has great influence in the shipbuilding industry, so Zhang Qianzhi can try to use his own advantages to join the team.
After he expressed his thoughts, Zhang Tiangui shook his head and said: "It's easy for you to say. If it is a civilian ship, it would be okay to arrange for you to join the team. But the orders for the Xingdao Region are from the Navy and the Special Warfare Division. Ships, when they signed the contract, the construction period and delivery time of each ship were already stated with the shipyard. How can it be changed at will? ”
"Besides, during the construction of these warships, officers were always stationed at the factory to supervise the construction. Do you think the shipyard can do whatever they want?"
Zhang Qianzhi came from a shipbuilding family. How could he not know anything about the situation in the shipyard? He was just testing the old man's attitude.
Although he hit a wall, he was not discouraged and continued to beg Zhang Tiangui to think of other ways to help the Security Department find a place to take orders as soon as possible.
Zhang Tiangui couldn't resist him, so he had to agree and would contact shipyards in Haikou, Leizhou and other places to see if they could expedite Zhang Qianzhi's order.
There is no demand for the special ships of the Ministry of Security for maritime operations. Logically speaking, any place that can build civilian ships should be able to accept orders. However, because it is mainly responsible for transporting people and special objects, it has relatively high speed requirements, so the hull structure is also different from ordinary civilian ships, and some of it involves technical secrets. Therefore, it can only be used in countries with relatively complete confidentiality systems. Built by the official shipyard.
As a result, the shipyard's choice range will inevitably be much narrower. If Zhang Tiangui did not come forward to use personal connections, Zhang Qianzhi himself would not have the face to expedite the order from the shipyard in other places.
The shipbuilding project finally took shape, and Zhang Qianzhi started recruiting new people non-stop.
In previous years, the Ministry of Security’s recruitment activities would regard the army and navy military academies in Sanya as a source of high-quality candidates, and they could more or less grab some people from the Ministry of National Defense. However, this year Zhang Qianzhi no longer has too much confidence in these two places. hope.
Haihan has achieved significant expansion in both the north and south directions this year. The newly occupied territory requires a large number of troops to be stationed, so the size of the army has also grown. Almost all the military academy cadets who are studying in the military academy have been snapped up by troops from all over the country, and they have been booked. Where to go after graduation.
This tight situation is expected to last for another year or two, so Zhang Qianzhi is not going to waste time trying his luck at the military academy. He plans to use another local heavyweight academy as the main target for this recruitment.
Sanya Administration College, located at the foot of Fenghuangling Ridge, is one of Haihan's important bases for training young officials. Young talents from all over the country are gathered here. The cultural level is definitely higher than those two military academies. It is definitely There are many talents who meet the employment requirements of the Security Department. But after Zhang Qianzhi came to the academy, he found that his movements were still a step slower.
A recruitment event is being held on the playground inside the college. Judging from the content of the banners hung on the venue, the organizer of this recruitment event was the Xingdao government.
Zhang Qianzhi stopped a passing student and asked, only to find out that this was the masterpiece of the Xingdao District Office in Sanya, and that the stall would be set up for two days in the early, middle and late days of every month. It has been going on for almost three months. .
This is really a slow step, a slow step. However, Zhang Qianzhi was not discouraged and stepped forward to see what kind of talents the other party was recruiting.
The other party seemed to be very familiar with this kind of activity. All recruitment positions were written in large characters on three-foot-wide paper and hung on a shelf. The contents could be read clearly from a few feet away. Those who are interested in this can come forward for consultation.
Zhang Qianzhi walked closer and took a look. There were many areas involved in recruitment, including administration, civil affairs, transportation, construction, culture and education, medical care, justice and many other departments. There were hundreds of positions, large and small.
There were two people presiding over the consultation, and Zhang Qianzhi happened to know them both.
The person dressed as a scholar is Tan Tianming, the second son of Tan Juren, the second-in-command of Singdao. The other person in military uniform is Shao Tianhu, the head of Singdao's Sanya office.
The reason why Zhang Qianzhi recognized these two people was because of the feud between the Xingdao Office and the Portuguese Embassy in the first half of the year.
At that time, the Portuguese created some unfavorable public opinions in Sanya against the Singdao government, hoping to prevent the Singdao region from encroaching on the Portuguese-controlled areas in the Strait of Malacca.
However, this little trick was quickly seen through by Tan Tianming, who treated the other person in his own way and took countermeasures in the public opinion arena.
Later, Shao Tianhu, an officer who was studying in Sanya, also participated and adopted more radical counterattacks against the Portuguese, so that the Ministry of Security could no longer sit still and could only intervene to quell the increasingly fierce battle.
The two men also noticed Zhang Qianzhi's appearance and quickly stood up to salute him.
Although Tan Tianming has an extraordinary family background, he does not dare to put on airs in front of Zhang Qianzhi. He knows that although this person is a naturalized citizen in name, he has excellent personal relationships with the big guys in the executive committee, and his influence His power is not comparable to that of ordinary naturalized officials.
Tan Tianming asked Zhang Qianzhi's reason for coming, and Zhang Qianzhi responded with a smile: "I originally wanted to come here to see if I could recruit some talents for the Security Department, but I didn't expect that you got there first!"
Tan Tianming said: "Master Zhang is joking, Xingdao is just a remote border area, and the conditions are not comparable to those of the Security Department's yamen! Those who plan to go to the Security Department for a higher position probably look down on our remote place."
Tan Tianming deliberately responded in a low-key manner, but Zhang Qianzhi did not accept his tactics and just asked him about his current recruitment results.
