With a single transfer order, he begins as a grassroots clerk in a muddy county town, carrying a heart full of sincerity and a sharp mind, and plunges into the treacherous world of officialdom.
Through twenty years of hardship, he makes his way from country lanes to the heart of the provincial government. He handles everyday matters affecting people’s livelihoods, navigates competing interests, endures years of obscurity, and weathers open attacks and covert schemes.
Every step brings a hurdle, and every step leads to a higher realm.
He neither courts the powerful nor goes along with the crowd. He takes hard work as his vessel and the people’s trust as his compass. Amid the mighty currents of his time, he rises from an obscure junior clerk to lead a region and stand at a height millions look up to.
This is a thorny path to promotion, and a journey of resolve and difficult choices.
See how a common man spends twenty years forging an epic legend in the world of officialdom!
