Sometimes we didn’t even send a fire truck, just a grocery van with two people and a dry powder fire extinguisher could handle it, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t this a bit of \"making a mountain out of a molehill\"?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Peizhou then told everyone with a stern face:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Olympics is the highest level of security you’ve ever seen! Here, there’s no such thing as a small issue! I’ve already told you, heighten your alertness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if it spreads? Not to mention a large fire, if it just blackens a part of the stadium, how will we recover in such little time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you realize how many foreign media with ulterior motives won’t capture the grand scenes of the Olympics but will instead focus on that one blemish, and distort the facts afterwards?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, a tiny oversight can destroy the efforts of millions and the expectations of a billion three!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this, the discussions ceased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone understood that if it really did catch fire, it wouldn’t be just the sign above Wang Erniang’s Potato Shop, but the face of 1.3 billion Chinese people at stake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All personnel took it seriously, tightened their nerves and prepared for their first task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time they arrived on scene, the problem had already been solved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only after seeing the situation inside the stadium that everyone realized what \"making a mountain out of a molehill\" meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A 200,000 square meter construction area spanning 52 hectares, the huge stadium had an unexpectedly bustling feeling at after 10pm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from them, over a thousand people had gathered here late at night because of a minor electrical short circuit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Police, People’s Armed Police, maintenance, volunteers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were so numerous they couldn’t even get close, and could only watch from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the crowd, there was also a policeman in a white shirt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-shirted officer saw so many people coming and with a loudspeaker in hand, spoke in a Beijing accent:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrades, your emergency response is very rapid!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I see that our City Bureau’s comrades alone number four or five hundred, and hundreds more from the People’s Armed Police and Firefighting have arrived!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, have we come in excess?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just the other day, Minister Meng said not to overreact! Think about it, if the international guests were already here and we still acted this way, wouldn’t it seem like ’making a mountain out of a molehill’? Might we scare the visitors?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go back! Inform your respective dispatch units! The plan that was just issued must be strictly followed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who should not be sent, mustn’t be, who must be sent, do so immediately, who may or may not be sent, coordinate with the units that are supposed to dispatch, to see if support is necessary, alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the field, there was a sparse acknowledgment of \"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go, withdraw.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Peizhou gave the order to withdraw with a tinge of embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His impassioned speech in the bus on the way there, prepared to show everyone on the ground how seriously security was taken, was cut short by the leader’s suggestion not to overreact, as it too could have adverse effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This has an impact, that has an impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In foreign affairs, there are no trivial matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just this once, it wasn’t only embarrassing, but it also added to the psychological pressure on him as the team leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way back, although Hu Peizhou didn’t reiterate the importance of Olympic security, everyone was still discussing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My goodness... over a thousand people dispatched for an emergency... Even when our Municipal Government building caught fire, we never saw such a scene.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How many are deployed for Olympic security?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who knows, and even if you did, you wouldn’t dare say! If you did, you might be taken away on the spot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was noisy discussion in the back, but Fang Huai at the front seemed out of sort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still immersed in the joy of becoming a military officer and being involved in the security of the Bird’s Nest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To others, Olympic security was a nerve-racking matter, but not to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew clearly that as long as things followed the progress of his previous life, no serious issues would arise. The few public incidents with the \"Spear\" were handled outside of BJ.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the undisclosed incidents were safely resolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he needed to do was to personally experience the excitement and joy of the occasion and be part of the rhythm of the era.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Olympics event like this brought international status and prestige to China and improved the quality of its citizens, and he, in this life, was there to witness it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this thought, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you smiling at?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai’s thoughts were interrupted. Turning his head, he saw Hu Peizhou, who had posed the question. He thought for a moment, then answered softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Military Academy matters, you know, can’t talk about it. Can’t I just be happy to myself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Peizhou saw Fang Huai as a brain trust. With anxieties weighing on him and seeing the young man still grinning foolishly, he said sternly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Think more about security!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai then turned his head and, under the alternating light and shadow coming in from outside the vehicle, noticed the furrow in his brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about today’s events, Fang Huai seemed to understand his concerns and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s no need to worry. ’Fish Hook and Spear,’ right? The guiding principles have already come down, haven’t they?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Peizhou glanced at him: \"That’s for armed security. We are Firefighting. In fire safety, where do Fish Hook and Spear come into play?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>",1030,"2026-06-02T10:16:52.043Z",1,"novelbin.me","ce3c639983983d3af36ba618591396967d4675f07c0097d8d0d77294695df752","after-being-reborn-i-became-a-firefighter-again-chapter-494","after-being-reborn-i-became-a-firefighter-again-chapter-492",807,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-being-reborn-i-became-a-firefighter-again-cover.jpg"]
