In the autumn of 1998, Lin Jianguo, a veteran worker at the county machinery factory, had his right leg amputated while repairing a scrapped punch press during his lunch break. Liu Sanpao, the factory security captain, insisted on "illegal operation" and refused to compensate. Eighteen-year-old son Lin Hao took over his father's empty trousers and started with a tampered equipment log and a scrap steel reselling receipt to pry open the first crack in the county's power arena. In this battle, he wanted not only compensation for work-related injuries—but also the 30,000 scrap steel money that Liu Sanpao had swallowed, his father's protection for the rest of his life, and the undercurrent of the interest network of the entire machinery factory behind that leg. Brothers, evidence, reporters, rules... Lin Hao stepped into the gray area between the system and the world. The first step was to start from the county seat.
Worth recommending, real plot, exciting!
