If you were to say which Weibo has been more popular in the past few days, Chengdu "Ping'an Wuhou" would absolutely rank near the top. The public security bureau's official Weibo sets up a bridge for magpies (a reference to a Chinese legend), calling for single police officers to be rescued; real-life photos of the cutely handsome policemen needing to be "freed from being single" make a grand appearance, and each one upon showing up recruits countless female fans. Netizen comments are even hotter than ever, with doubters saying this is just hype, supporters saying it's a great thing, and still more police wives leaving kind messages reminding the female fans to be mentally prepared for several aspects of marrying a policeman. ■Weibo marriage recruitment Female fans come to pay attention Yesterday, the Wuhou Public Security Bureau’s official Weibo account “Ping’an Wuhou” posted a poster of a handsome single male officer. In the poster, it says, “‘Yinan Zai’ makes a dazzling entrance, at 25 years old he is 185cm tall, weighing 80 kilograms, graduated from Sichuan Police College, will his tall and imposing figure attract you?” Prior to this, “Ping’an Wuhou” successively posted 4 posters of handsome single male officers. “Cola427” is an officer on the Wuhou Public Security Bureau patrol police team “Flying Eagle” assault unit, 29 years old, a postgraduate student. “Walking Little Priest” is 27 years old, an officer on the Wuhou Public Security Bureau patrol police team traffic patrol unit, hailing from Jiangsu. “Tianbing ICE” graduated from Sichuan Police College, a Taurus male, 24 years old. “Stalkingsnake” is a top student from the Detective College, now a member of the Wuhou District Public Security Bureau patrol (riot control) team “Flying Eagle” assault unit. Since the 5 male officers needing to be “freed from being single” appeared on the official Weibo account, many female fans have come to pay attention to them. “Each one is so handsome, I’m really conflicted…regardless, I request to sign up”, “This side profile slays me! So stylish”, “For me who has long-term admiration for police officers, it’s hard to resist such temptation! Request further understanding”…many netizens have been attracted by the serious expressions of these 5 male officers while they’re working. However, they almost only communicate with netizens during their lunch breaks and after getting off their night shifts. Reporters found that since the day the “rescue single police officers plan” was launched, “Ping’an Wuhou” quickly became the number one most popular government microblog of all the public security bureaus nationwide. ■Official Stance Police officers need stability before they can work happily However, some netizens also raised questions: Is it good to send out information like this on an official microblog? Could it be a publicity stunt? Regarding the doubts raised by some netizens, Shi Yi, deputy director of the Political Department of the Wuhou Public Security Bureau and one of the people in charge of the “Ping’an Wuhou” microblog denied this on the afternoon of June 6th, telling reporters that the activity would only promote 5 police officers, these 5 police officers adopted a voluntary registration method. When registering, they also did an “investigation” of these people, confirming that they were single before promoting them. This plan had been planned for quite some time already, because police officers have unfixed working hours, little rest time, and not even the opportunity to go out and get to know girls, hence there was hope to launch this “rescue plan”. Shi Yi also said that one must have stability before one can work happily. These 5 police officers are from 5 different police types within the police system, through these 5 people, it can also allow everyone to understand their job positions and nature better. The official microblog is merely setting up a platform, as for whether or not it succeeds depends on their own interactions with their fans. As for whether or not there are already any successful pairings currently is still unknown. Shi Yi also frankly admitted that they indeed didn’t expect it to become so popular beforehand. ■Expert Opinions An embodiment of humanization Regarding this, Liu Xin, professor of China University of Political Science and Law (microblog) expressed that this is merely a very natural matter, the treatment methods for hemorrhoids, because it was promoted on the official microblog it received attention. Regarding the minority of netizens thinking whether or not this form is too casual, she expressed that everyone can use a very normal mindset to view this issue, fundamentally speaking, this is a way and manifestation of a unit caring for its employees, it’s also an embodiment of humanization. ■Police Wife Reminders Precautions when marrying a police officer The rescue single police officers plan also drew the attention of police wives. Combining their personal experiences, while blessing the single police officers to find love sooner, they also kindly remind the female fans. Microblogger “Jiebai Wuyuetian” left a comment stating that if you marry a police officer you need to be ready for the following points: One, your rice may just be cooked and he’ll have to leave without eating. Two, he’ll often have missions in the middle of the night that’ll wake you up. Three, let alone being pregnant, even when giving birth he might not be by your side. Four, holidays don’t give him time to take the kids to the park or tutor them in their studies. Five, he won’t be able to help you with housework. We police wives have already gotten used to these things!
