At the entrance of the police dog training base, Liu drove away. Zhang Zian hung up the phone, and Richard's wailing stopped.
"Did something happen in the store?" Feng Xuan asked with concern.
"It's nothing, just a small matter. I asked the staff to take care of it, "Zhang Zian said lightly." Director Feng, let's go in. "
"Okay." Feng Xuan nodded.
In addition to Feng Xuan and Zhang Zian, there were also Feng Xuan's personal assistant and several staff members who had come to help. They had also rented a truck to transport the dogs.
Of course, Famous was there.
The police dog training base had high walls and gates, and there were policemen standing guard at the gate. It was not open to the public. From the gate, one could vaguely hear the barking of dogs coming from the depths of the base. Maybe the police dogs were training early.
There was a sign hanging at the door, on which was the official full name of the base: Special Police (Riot) Detachment Police Dog Training Brigade of the Binhai City Public Security Bureau.
At this time, a short and fat middle-aged police officer hurried out of the door and enthusiastically extended his hand to Feng Xuan. "Oh, it's Director Feng Xuan! My apologies for not going out to meet you! The higher-ups have already informed us that you're coming. I didn't expect you to come so early. Have you been waiting for a long time? "
Feng Xuan shook hands with him. "We just arrived. How should I address you? "
"Han Gui, just call me Old Han." Old Han warmly greeted the others. "Come on in, everyone."
The group followed Old Han inside.
Apart from the occasional barking of a dog, the base was very quiet, with a sense of solemnity unique to a military or armed police station. Even the police officers who passed by looked straight ahead. They came and went like the wind, adhering to the strict discipline of "two people in a line, three people in a line", which made them, who were dressed in casual clothes, look very different.
The interior of the base was well covered with greenery. Tall evergreen pines and cypresses were planted on both sides of the passageway, and a few red brick buildings could be seen in the forest.
As Old Han walked, he gave them a simple introduction. There was the cafeteria, the dormitory, the training ground, and the office building. He wanted to take everyone to the reception to rest and have a cup of tea, but Feng Xuan declined.
Feng Xuan said, "You're welcome. Just take us to the kennel and we'll leave after choosing. You seem to be quite busy here, so we won't bother you any longer. "
"That won't do. Since I'm already here, I should at least take a seat before leaving. I've already told the canteen to prepare lunch for you. "Old Han said anxiously.
Feng Xuan looked at the time and estimated that it would be lunchtime after choosing the dogs. He thought for a moment and said, "We can stay for lunch, but don't give us special treatment. We'll eat whatever you eat."
"I don't think that's a good idea. You are the guests …"
Old Han wanted to persuade him again, but Feng Xuan was very determined.
The kennel occupied a separate courtyard in the base, with an iron fence and a plain appearance. The three two-story buildings were painted chest-high dark blue with a light blue paint on the top, which looked simple and lively.
The police officer on duty in the kennel also received the news in advance and stood outside to welcome them.
"Where are the retired police dogs?" Feng Xuan asked.
"This way, please." Old Han said a few words to the officer on duty and led them into the small building on the left.
"Woof woof!"
"Woof woof!"
Maybe they had smelled Famous's scent, the small building was filled with dog barks, one louder than the other, almost deafening.
There were not many rooms in the two-story building, but each room was very large. The walls and floors of the rooms were all covered with shiny tiles. Mops and brooms were hung behind the doors. The faint smell of disinfectant was very familiar to Zhang Zian.
Seven or eight large stainless steel cages were lined up in the room. Each steel cage was about the height of a person, separated in the middle, and could accommodate two large dogs. There were rollers at the bottom of the steel cages, which could be pushed or fixed, similar to hospital beds.
At this time, there were about ten adult German Shepherds living in these cages. Their body size and fur color were similar to Famous's. Only some details could be seen.
"Oh my god! Look at this! " It was rare for the assistant to swear in front of Feng Xuan. He pointed at the first cage by the door in surprise. "Look at the fence! It's been bitten!"
Zhang Zian and the others took a closer look and saw that the stainless steel fence, which was about the size of an adult man's thumb, was full of teeth marks. It looked like a piece of roasted corn that had been chewed clean.
The ferocity of these German Shepherds was evident. Although they were similar in appearance, when compared with each other, Famous's temperament was obviously more gentle.
"This one is called 'Big Teeth.' It is very good at biting, but it is not obedient. It won't let go of anything it bites. No matter how much training it is, it can't be trained," the police officer said.
The German Shepherd in the cage showed its white canine teeth and stared at Famous provocatively.
"What are the selection criteria for police dogs?" Feng Xuan asked.
Old Han gestured to the police officer to answer. The police officer held his head high and recited fluently, "According to the working rules of police dog breeding, the selection of police dogs needs to meet the following five criteria: 1. Good nerve type; 2. Courage; 3. Good biting ability; 4. Good obedience; 5. Good physical fitness."
Feng Xuan nodded and asked, "That is to say, all the dogs here are not good in one or more aspects?"
"Yes, that's it," Old Han said.
Feng Xuan pondered for a moment and asked Zhang Zian, "If the dogs we use as stunt doubles in the movie are not obedient, is it not good?"
Since Zhang Zian had promised Famous and Xiao Liu that he would buy as many dogs as possible, he answered, "Don't worry, Director Feng. I don't think there is a problem."
Old Han frowned slightly. He was experienced and prudent, so he didn't dare to agree with Zhang Zian's opinion. He was worried that these eliminated dogs would cause trouble during the filming. Seeing that Feng Xuan seemed to trust Zhang Zian, he asked, "Director Feng, this is?"
"Oh, this is the chief dog trainer of our crew. His name is Zhang Zian, and he runs a pet shop in the city," Feng Xuan introduced. He then pointed to Famous and said, "This is the dog he trained, Famous, and it plays the leading role in this film."
Old Han was surprised and looked at Famous again. "I heard that this is the dog that beat Red Dragon and Prince? Red Dragon and Prince are the stars of our base, and they are among the best in all assessments. "
It was no wonder that he doubted it. The base had a set of secret standards for the appearance of police dogs. Old Han had seen countless German Shepherds, and his eyes were very sharp. No matter how he looked at it, Famous was just a very ordinary dog. He didn't believe that it could beat Red Dragon and Prince.
