[Story Summary] In 2025, Jiang Yuan, a deputy department cadre, was imprisoned due to political frame-up, and his life hit rock bottom. An accident brought him back to 2005, the summer when he was just assigned to report to a poor county or town.
With twenty years of painful lessons and political memories, Jiang Yuan fully understands the importance of the first button. He no longer has high ambitions and low ambitions, but uses his prediction of the "flood control levee collapse" event to perform perfectly and seize the first turning point of fate in one fell swoop.
From then on, he walked on thin ice but made bold moves. At the grassroots level, he resolved demolition conflicts and introduced leading enterprises; at the municipal level, he led the reform of state-owned enterprises and responded to the financial crisis; at a higher level, he arranged connections and formed his own political alliance.
He makes up for the regrets of the previous life one by one; he liquidates the enemies of the previous life one by one. In this long and cruel power game, Jiang Yuan not only has to climb the peak, but also has to define his own rules.
