Synopsis

Kerosene lamps flickered in the mountain village primary school, and young private teachers were correcting homework, filled with longing for the future. No one would have thought that thirty-nine years later, this young man who once determined to change the countryside would become a handcuffed person in the provincial party committee compound. By day, he is a role model presenting his experience in clean governance at televised conferences; At night, he conducted various transactions in shady places. In public, he speaks sincerely and advocates integrity; Privately, he has close contacts with unscrupulous businessmen and lives a luxurious life. In the spring of 2011, his official career came to an abrupt end. As the investigation deepened, a huge network of relationships gradually emerged, involving many people and shocking the entire region. From the hesitation when facing temptation for the first time, to the numbness and sinking in the intoxication; From the passionate ideal of a mountain village teacher to the tragic ending of becoming a prisoner. This is an experience spanning thirty-nine years, and a true portrayal of being lost in power and desire. When all the masks are torn off and exposed to the sun, it is not only a mistake in personal choice, but also worthy of people's reflection on how to establish a complete supervision system. Power is accompanied by responsibility, and original intention is connected with choice. And he spent the first half of his life climbing to a high position, but made wrong choices to go in a completely different direction.

Looking for Han Dong Official Documents

I would like to read a book similar to "Name: Hou Liangping, please abide by the organizational principles". It is required not to be systematic. Most of the Han Dong officialdom novels are either time travel or rebirth. They already have the advantage of being prophets. They already know the personalities and acting styles of important figures. They also need to be systematic.
