This novel is very close to life and the reality of officialdom. The plot design is reasonable and vivid, closely linked and fascinating. Each of Mr. Bao's novels is well written, so we can't help but give it five stars!
I am a loyal reader. It has a bit of an autobiography. The plot is engaging and the writing is witty and humorous. It is generally sunny and upbeat, but not dark and decadent. The story can also tell you a lot of truths. It is worth following and worthy of love. If everyone praises it, the author will have the motivation to update!
This book is so well written and pragmatic. Although I can't become an official, at least it has clarified a lot of things in my 50-year-old life. I will definitely read this book again and again. Thank you to the author for his careful writing. I have read more than 300 books in Tomato Novels. This is the only novel worth reading and learning repeatedly. I give the author a thumbs up. I will recommend it to my children and children who are growing up. You don't have to be an official, but you have to learn to be comfortable in life. Thank you to the author. This is the only book that I write a review while reading.
The sense of immersion is very strong, and novices in the workplace will enjoy watching it.
It's really good. I've read so many official articles. It's very good. I'm not afraid of comparison. In comparison, the author is indeed a master.
The male protagonist is very powerful, has a high IQ, a first-class brain and first-class eloquence, has a bright future in officialdom, and is proficient in official terminology. Such people are rare in modern society. This article is worth reading by those who are taking public service examinations, and learn from Hao Xiaodong's way of being an official. This article is so lively and interesting. The male protagonist has a bright and positive image, an optimistic and positive personality, and is open-minded and eager to learn. He is an unobstructed officialdom. He is a role model worthy of learning by aspiring young people. I would also like to give the author a big thumbs up [like] [like] [like] [like] [like] [like] [like] Looking forward to more updates! !
This official novel is like a delicate and grand picture, vividly showing the protagonist's legendary journey from a farmer's boy to the mayor's secretary. At the beginning of the novel, we are introduced to the protagonist's farm life. The harsh environment has not diminished his desire for knowledge and his determination to change his destiny. With his unremitting efforts in learning, he stepped out of the countryside step by step and opened up a new path for his future. This kind of starting point setting makes people deeply feel that fate is not destined, and hard work can create miracles. The process of becoming the mayor's secretary is not an easy one and is full of challenges and tests. The protagonist always maintains his original intention and integrity in the complex officialdom, and his wisdom and courage are fully demonstrated in dealing with various difficult problems. He is neither dazzled by power nor lost by the temptation of interests. This persistence is truly admirable. The author's description of the officialdom ecology is extremely realistic, whether it is the subtle handling of interpersonal relationships or the undercurrents of power struggles, they are all portrayed penetratingly. Readers feel as if they are immersed in the story and can truly feel the pressure and choices faced by the protagonist. At the same time, the novel is not only about power and struggle, but also explores human nature, ideals and responsibilities in depth. On the road to pursuing personal success, the protagonist never forgets his roots and cares about the people. This sentiment gives the story a deeper meaning. Overall, this novel brings readers an unforgettable reading experience with its wonderful plot, vivid characters and profound themes. It allows us to see the growth and struggle of an ordinary person in the officialdom, and also allows us to think more about the value and pursuit of life.
It's a very good book, especially the part about human relations and sophistication is very well written.
The protagonist is a boy from a farm family, and the book describes his growth process step by step in a very realistic and detailed way. The protagonists in the book are real, vivid, and there are no cheats, cheats, or overnight epiphanies. He absorbs nutrients by analyzing, comparing and reflecting on small things, slowly growing up, and moving towards heights and distances step by step. That is what Zengzi said: I examine myself three times... I feel a lot about this. If we can spend half an hour every night before going to bed to seriously reflect on all our experiences that day, such as which time can be saved to read some books, which money can be saved to avoid impulsive spending, which words can be said to make people more happy, and which things can be done with less effort... It won't take long, I believe this will definitely make things better and better in work and life.
Highly readable and realistic. Especially the part about the life of a secretary, I feel the same way.
