An ordinary junior official with no connections and no influential background.
His leaders sacrifice him to save themselves, demanding that he take the fall.
“Who else should we sacrifice? You have to sacrifice yourself to save everyone.”
“Why am I always the one who has to be sacrificed at the crucial moment?” He refuses, with the courage to challenge workplace injustice.
So he is sidelined, targeted, and excluded, and eventually transferred to the remote Daqingshan Forest Farm in a poor, out-of-the-way region.
His girlfriend leaves him, too.
Before he goes, he shouts, “I’ll be back!”
At the forest farm, he uses his knowledge to rise from the very bottom.
He steps into the treacherous world of officialdom, where hazards, obstacles, and traps lie in wait,
embarking on a path to rapid promotion and soaring success...
Seeing how much the author enjoys writing rambling accounts... My heart... Wasn't broken, I just gave it a 1-star review.
It doesn't make me happy at all, there's no excitement, just depression and discomfort. Goodbye.
Reading this is torture!!!
The narrative is simple and natural, the writing is fluent, the plot is fast-paced, and it reveals genuine emotions, making it highly readable. (The revelations of officialdom's inner workings are somewhat rapid, which may appeal to impatient readers.)
It conforms to social reality and also has the sublimation of artistic embellishment.
Yes, it's very appealing.
