About This Novel
This is a neo-Confucian history. The work successfully creates a group of portraits of "pen-holders" in the new era, vividly depicts their complex psychological world, and truly reflects the living conditions of the little intellectuals living at the bottom of society at the end of the last century. The protagonist of this book, Zheng Xicheng, is a son of a peasant family. After graduating from university, he went to towns and counties to engage in news writing. He became a "local reporter". He wanted to praise virtues, but he got into unexpected trouble time and time again. The tortuous life experience seems to have made him smarter and more sophisticated. But the complex social reality did not change his innocent heart. In the face of justice and evil, he still took risks and spoke up for the villagers. The county leaders disliked him and even lost his job, but in the end he was favored by the superior news unit and was hired by a local evening newspaper as a temporary reporter.
