While studying for graduate school in Shanghai, I visited the Shanghai Public Security Museum to gain education and gain experience.
The Shanghai Public Security Museum is located at No. 518 Ruijin South Road and was renovated from a seven-story building. It stands facing the street, majestic and spectacular.
When you walk into the sculpture hall on the first floor, you will see the relief sculptures of public security heroes, which are lifelike, shining and awe-inspiring; the five columns are decorated with police images of the five types of police, which respectively represent There are five major types of police: criminal police, security police, traffic patrol police, fire police, and guard police. Surrounding the hall is the Public Security Bookstore, which sells legal book boxes and tourist souvenirs.
Walking into the Public Security History Museum on the second floor is like going back to Shanghai in the old times through a time tunnel. Here is a concentrated display of the establishment of public security bureaus (police stations) in various eras since the opening of Shanghai as a port. Here we can learn about the origin of the earliest police agency in Shanghai: as early as 1845, Britain, the United States, and France began to set up concessions in Shanghai. In order to maintain local security, the Concession Ministry of Industry Bureau established a police committee in 1854. This is our country It is the earliest police agency, but the people who control the police station are foreigners. Most of the people patrolling the streets are Indian policemen with red cloth on their heads (commonly known as red-headed Asan), British policemen and Vietnamese policemen. There are very few Chinese policemen. , and most of them have low-level positions, which is also a microcosm of the country's weakening power in the late Qing Dynasty. In the exhibition hall, photos, models, and real objects are used to create multiple gates of the old Shanghai Police Station. Together with the gravel pavement on the ground, visitors seem to have actually walked to the door of the police station. Here I also saw the earliest "110": a wooden alarm booth located in the southern urban area of ????old Shanghai. After many years of bloody troubles, it found its best home, but how many stories happened in the booth Woolen cloth? No one can tell me. No matter in the feudal and backward Manchu Qing Dynasty, in the Republic of China where warlords fought, or in the Anti-Japanese War era when Japanese demons were raging, the police were the minions who suppressed the people and worked for the tiger. Only in New China have the police truly become the people's defenders ensuring peace. In the exhibition hall there is a work diary of the last public security director when the Kuomintang government was defeated in Shanghai. It truly records the situation when the People's Liberation Army did not commit any crimes during the liberation of Shanghai and successfully took over Shanghai. Since then, history has turned a new page, and the People's Public Security Bureau has been born, shouldering the heavy responsibility of cracking down on criminals and protecting the people. Chairman Mao pointed out: Public security is at stake in half of national security.
The audience will spend more time in the Criminal Investigation Hall. Here, through famous cases, pictures and objects are used to show how the public security personnel find clues to solve the case from the clues, compete with criminals in a battle of wits and courage, search for criminals from the vast sea of ??people, and finally bring them to justice. The investigation process of many cases that shocked the country are displayed here, such as the shooting case of Yu Shuangge, the murder case of the famous writer Dai Houying, the theft of the US Consulate, etc. I was not only impressed by the bravery of the public security officers, they are the real "Sherlock Holmes" .
After visiting the Public Security Hall and the Traffic Hall, I came to the Prison Hall. Prison is a mysterious place to the average person. It is a place where prisoners are held, where they serve their sentences, confess their crimes, live and study, undergo labor reform, and gain a new life. However, many revolutionary people with lofty ideals were imprisoned in many prisons in old China, where they were severely tortured, inhumanely tortured, and even deprived of their lives. When people mention Tilanqiao in Shanghai, they will think of Tilanqiao Prison. Yes, this prison designed and built by the British is still in use today. It is large in scale, solidly built, and has many unique facilities. For example, the rumored rubber cells are true. The walls and the floor are covered with materials such as rubber sponges. They are specially used to detain prisoners with violent tendencies. Six cells were built at that time, and two are still preserved. However, they are no longer Discontinue use. In order to torture prisoners, the prison has a semi-open-air cell, which is cold in winter and hot in summer. It is called the "Fengbo Pavilion". There is a Yin-Yang suit worn by a death row prisoner hanging inside, half black and half white on the left and right, which can't help but make people's hair stand on end. However, seeing the photos of Japanese war criminals being hanged makes people feel happy. Models and photos show the process of more than a dozen Japanese war criminals being tied up with ropes in a special execution room at Tilanqiao Prison, ending their criminal lives.
Our prisons are places where inmates go to a new life. The exhibition hall uses a large number of pictures and objects to show the tremendous work that correctional officers have put into reforming criminals. They respect the basic human rights of prisoners, turn prisons into schools, and use true emotions to transform criminals. They come out of the wall as soon as possible and return to society. But I think it would be great if one day our prisons were empty and everyone could enjoy family reunions.
The fire hall and equipment hall are places of interest to many people. In the fire hall, you can see the wooden dragon used to extinguish fires in the Qing Dynasty and the most modern fire-fighting facilities. Live videos of many fires remind people of General Secretary Jiang’s instructions: Responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai. The equipment museum displays a large number of police equipment, from traditional field survey instruments to advanced DNA measuring instruments, which makes people linger. The various types of guns are particularly diverse, ranging from old-fashioned 38 caps to sophisticated spy pistols. Here we can see the first-class revolutionary cultural relics known as the treasures of the museum: a Browning pistol used by Dr. Sun Yat-sen for self-defense, a secret pistol shaped like a fruit knife used by the maritime celebrity Du Yuesheng, and a An amazing golden pistol made of gold used by Shanghai tycoon Huang Huangrong. What makes me feel warm is the costumes of the people's police of various periods on display in the exhibition hall, starting from the liberated areas. From the early green police uniforms that were born out of military uniforms to the modern navy blue police uniforms that are in line with international standards, it shows that the people's police are in the formal the path taken in the construction of modernization and modernization. Here, for the first time, I clarified the types and identification of police ranks, from "supervisor, supervisor, division, member" to the logos of various professional police officers, which shows the vigorous development of the public security industry.
The most touching thing is the Hall of Heroes and Martyrs. In order to protect the safety of people's lives and property, hundreds of public security heroes sacrificed their precious lives. Some of them fell on the front line of the struggle against the enemy, some sacrificed their lives for the country during rescue and disaster relief, some died gloriously while fighting criminals, and some unfortunately died while handling spent artillery shells. Looking at the young faces, we will feel sorry. They have relatives and families just like us, but they passed away prematurely for the police badge above their heads. My heart was shocked when I read a letter written by a martyr's daughter to her father in heaven. The people's police are full of infinite loyalty to the public security cause. They appear to be powerful and strict in enforcing the law, but in their hearts they are full of infinite affection for the people. Among them there are many good policemen like Ma Tianmin who are helpful to others, and even good policemen like Ren Changxia who are famous throughout the country for their uprightness. The annual selection activity of "My Top Ten Favorite People's Policemen" allows us to appreciate the style of the people's police. My heart is filled with respect for the heroes.
Walking out of the Shanghai Public Security Museum and looking at the people under the sun, I truly feel that a peaceful life is hard-won and the importance and greatness of the public security cause. Friends, if you have the opportunity to go to Shanghai, don’t forget to visit the Shanghai Public Security Museum.
How about it, not bad. Give it points!
