In 1987, university graduate Lu Qichen was assigned to a poor county in the most remote mountainous area in western Qinxi.
He was powerless and received cold looks when he first arrived. Many people were waiting to see if he couldn't bear to leave.
A desk at the Price Bureau was the starting point of his career.
Countless problems lie ahead in rural poverty alleviation, flood fighting during flood season, and local reforms.
There are no shortcuts, no relying on connections.
Lu Qichen took root in the grassroots, traveled through the mountains and mud, stood firm amidst numerous tests, stepped out of the mountains step by step, and joined the wave of the times.
Half a life of hard work, mountains and rivers are the proof.

It's like a story that happened not far from us. It's familiar and worth reading.
It is indeed wonderful, fascinating, and has memories of the times. Those born in the 1960s have the deepest insights. Young people can look at the struggle of their fathers.
