Lin Zhou, who took the exam for three years before getting admitted, was assigned to the Party and Government Office of Anping Town, the most remote area in the county.
With no background, no connections, and no way of flattering others, he became the recognized scapegoat in the office.
He has to shoulder the responsibility of writing reports with wrong data, he has to do the work that offends people, and it will never be his turn to take the lead in making judgments about excellence.
Everyone thought he would stay in this small town for the rest of his life until he retired.
But no one knows that this young man who is usually taciturn has a pair of eyes that can see through people's hearts and a heart that dares to take on troubles.
From solving a problem that no one dared to touch, to writing a research report that shocked the county committee;
From being framed and almost losing his job, to making a comeback and becoming a popular figure around the leader;
From township clerk, to county party secretary, to in charge of a city with a population of eight million.
After twenty years of ups and downs, he has seen too much darkness in human nature, but he has always maintained his bottom line.
This is not a cool article, it is a true story of an ordinary person struggling within the system.
All plots in the book have prototypes.
