Synopsis

In order to get rid of the label of "underdeveloped", Wenshan Municipal Party Committee Secretary Shi Yanan and Mayor Fang Zhenggang blindly pursued GDP and worked hard to launch 7 million tons of steel, but they caused a major economic disaster. They engaged in local protectionism and acted according to the unwritten rules of the officialdom, even breaking laws and disciplines. In the end, Wu Yazhou, the city's largest entrepreneur, committed suicide and apologized, and more than 16 billion was thrown into the water. Shi Yanan and Fang Zhenggang learned from the painful experience and tried every means to turn the tide, but they still failed to change their fate of being investigated and dismissed. In the face of the severe test, the two finally handed over satisfactory answers, and their political character was "sublimated". The novel truly and vividly expresses the "historical original sins" of decision-making politicians such as Shi Yanan and Fang Zhenggang in the reform process and the dilemmas they face under new historical conditions. It also provides a new interpretation of this little-known decision-making group and reveals themes with practical and historical significance.

Reader comments

This author is the author of "In the Name of the People". I have never watched the TV series "In the Name of the People" nor read the novel (it is on the author's homepage). He is the number one author of novels about officialdom. To be honest, this novel, which started in April 2004 and ended in May 2005, has a sense of time. It is not easy to understand now. It needs to be combined with the original environment to feel the humanistic spirit.

This book is very real and the characters are very vivid. The economic disaster caused by Shi Yanan and Fang Zhenggang in pursuit of GDP is very thought-provoking. The author Zhou Meisen's description of officialdom is very detailed, which gave me a new understanding of this decision-making group. The phrase "shooting oneself in the foot" in the book is really a wonderful satire of this behavior! However, they were able to deliver a good answer in the end, which is worthy of recognition. This book is very practical and highly recommended!

This book is already very good from the perspective of conception alone. Everyone has their own considerations and makes their own choices under the general environment. It really lives up to the words "I am a hero".

The characters are vividly depicted, the language is fluent and humorous, and the narrative is clear. In the torrent of the great era, all kinds of officials and businessmen are written. The full text is majestic and full of tragedy after reading it. Pay tribute to the heroes of that era!

Only Zhao Anbang is good, but too soft-hearted.
