It truly reproduces the process of large-scale contract work in rural areas and the vigorous development of township enterprises in the county from the 1980s to the early 1990s. Full of sense of age.

9.6 Rating: a Good Article About Officialdom, Not Reborn, and You Can't Stop Reading It.

I want to read a book similar to "The Official Ladder". The plot of the story is twists and turns and vivid, and the narrative is not sloppy at all. It feels that the novel is close to life and very real. What is especially commendable is that the author has a profound understanding of social reality, a good grasp of the officialdom, and a good grasp of human beings.
