Synopsis

Lin Yuan graduated from a prestigious university specializing in political science and law, full of ambition and ready to join the city government. But his blunt nature got him on the wrong side of petty people, and he was assigned to a peripheral post, where he stayed for three years. Then a project in the south of the city ran into trouble. Drawing on his remarkable memory, sharp judgment, and solid professional expertise, he began with a property rights dispute and gradually untangled the problems, proving his exceptional ability as he navigated the complex interests at stake. From an overlooked junior official on the sidelines to a key member of the project, and then to a young cadre able to take charge on his own, Lin Yuan repeatedly rose to the challenge. He gained experience through grassroots work and transformed himself through one test after another. Faced with conflicts of interest, workplace rivalries, and obstacles at every level, he always stood by his principles, earning recognition through hard work and finding a way forward through his ability. See how an ordinary man with no connections, starting out in a dead-end post, can use his own abilities to carve out a path to success.
