Simulation Game: Crisis Management

"Thank you, Mr. Wei, and the higher-ups for the recognition."

Not only Gao Bo, but even the usually composed Gu Ji was momentarily dazed when the certificate was displayed in front of him, with the bold characters of "Personal Commendation" standing out vividly.

Compared to the verbal praise during the police entry assessment, the sense of pride and honor standing on the award stage was indescribable, his mind a blank, yet his heart racing wildly, unable to control the twitch at the corner of his eye.

Perhaps;

This is what belief and honor feel like.

Standing behind him, Li Ruilin stepped forward, smiled faintly, and spoke softly.

"Well done, keep working hard, and don't become complacent."

"Yes, Mr. Li!"

Gu Ji immediately straightened his spine.

He was really grateful to Li Ruilin, not only for arranging Zhang Wenjun to constantly supervise him, helping him correct minor issues, but just sending both of them to train at the police training base was already a great gesture.

Normally, for regular SWAT officers to train at the police headquarters every week, the approval process is very slow.

Without Li Ruilin's help, he would have had to pay a lot to train at a gym or a private shooting club, both of which lack the equipment and environment of the former.

After the award ceremony ended,

Wei Yu Country invited the squad leaders Zhou Penghui and Zhang Wenjun to give brief remarks on receiving the award. Finally, under the red background of "Serving the People, Enforcing the Law Fairly, Disciplined and Strict," the group took a commemorative photo, and the entire commendation meeting concluded.

As the meeting adjourned, many colleagues still surrounded them with congratulations, or invited them for a meal to catch up, all of which Gu Ji casually brushed off.

Returning to the SWAT team, colleagues who remained at work stood up to applaud and welcome them.

Zhang Wenjun's praise for the two was restrained, mainly urging colleagues to learn more, then handed the group second-class merit banner to a middle-aged SWAT officer.

"Mr. Chen, hang the banner in the public area. You two put your things away and come to my office."

"Yes!"

Back at his desk, Gao Bo first took a selfie with the certificate and sent it to the family group, then lovingly touched the golden medal, and finally reluctantly stuffed both it and the certificate into the drawer, turning around and whispering:

"Gu Ji, my head is still in a fog. With the 2,000 yuan bonus, do you think we should treat the squad colleagues to a meal?"

"We should, indeed."

Due to a crash incident, Gu Ji took many days off and often had to trouble colleagues to share his workload.

They went to the squad leader's office.

Zhang Wenjun first, like Li Ruilin, reminded the two not to become arrogant, then briefly discussed the bonus issue.

With the group second-class merit bonus of 20,000 yuan, after discussing with Zhou Penghui, it was decided to split it evenly among the thirteen people, each receiving 1,538.46 yuan, to be paid with this month's salary.

Gu Ji and the other didn't have any objections.

Just as they thought the conversation was over, Zhang Wenjun suddenly opened a drawer and took out a file.

Gao Bo, sharp-eyed, instantly saw the black title on the front page:

Wu Province Public Security Bureau Document No. 20246716, "Regarding the Tactical Exchange Program for Young SWAT Officers from the Seven Cities in the Xia Dong Region to Xiangzhou" (hereinafter referred to as the program)

Seeing the word "young," even his breathing became slightly rapid.

"The provincial offices have jointly with the Xiangzhou Police Department decided to host a SWAT tactical exchange meeting at the Police Mobile Force Headquarters building. You two should have already heard about it."

While speaking, Zhang Wenjun turned the document around and pushed it in front of them.

"This event is specifically for young SWAT officers. We have six spots for Ningzhou SWAT, and the selection is by recommendation and filtering. Right now, we only have you two rookies on the team. If you're interested, I..."

"Of course interested! Thank you, Zhang Zhong!"

Gao Bo eagerly nodded before Zhang Wenjun finished speaking.

Zhang Wenjun glared at him, withdrew the document, and gestured for them to write a letter of self-recommendation when they find the time, "Also, let the team know we'll have a dinner gathering after work tonight."

"Understood, Zhang Zhong."

Gu Ji understood that Zhang Wenjun planned to use the bonus to treat the whole team to a meal, indirectly helping them save money.

After they left,

Zhang Wenjun once again carefully examined the document.

To be honest, as a former member of the Dragon and Tiger Assault Team, he knew well Li Ruilin's "methods." Once he spotted a good seed, he intensified the stimulation and training, continuously honing until it grew into a sturdy tree, ready to be thrown into the Dragon and Tiger Assault Team.

This approach has its advantages and disadvantages.

Someone like Gu Ji, however, truly thrives under this regimen, advancing rapidly over a month and a half.

Nevertheless, Zhang Wenjun still couldn't quite understand the operation behind the provincial "SWAT Tactical Exchange Meeting."

What is the Special Tasks Unit anyway?

The renowned Xiangzhou Flying Tiger Team, one of the top SWAT units in Asia!

In his early years in the police force, going to Xiangzhou for tactical exchanges was reserved for provincial elites. But now such a valuable opportunity is given to the youth.

If only the Ningzhou SWAT was participating, he might think it was Li Ruilin subtly exerting influence to have Gu Ji further train and grow quickly.

Yet with major cities from the six provinces and one city in the Xia Dong Region participating, it indicates this isn't merely Li Ruilin's intention, but a plan from multiple provincial offices, if not even higher-ups.

Zhang Wenjun slightly furrowed his brow.

"A bit puzzling..."

Returning to the desk.

Gao Bo was so delighted he was nearly drooling.

"What luck we have today, with good things piling on top of each other! We must buy a lottery ticket after work!"

"Don't rejoice too soon. Ningzhou has a total of seven SWAT teams, with over fifteen recruits from the 24th batch alone, not to mention the seniors from the previous two batches?"
