Rising to the Top: Back to 1998

Soaring to great heights, one step leads to heaven.

This novel is probably the best-written officialdom novel, but its score of 8.8 Is strange. Another novel, "The Hidden Official," with a score of 9.4, Is utterly baseless fabrication; the male protagonist is practically an old woman's gigolo.

The rebirth is completely useless; it's just a series of hundreds of chapters about officials being transferred between a dozen or so counties without doing any actual work or driving the plot forward. The content is also written in a succinct, chronological style. Today I've got something on you, so I'll reassign everyone. Tomorrow my superiors will move, and everyone will be reassigned again.

It's a worthwhile read, very enjoyable. The author's skill and life experience are evident, and the writing is remarkably nuanced. It blends idealism with a strong sense of realism.

The plot is captivating and the writing is exquisite.

This author is probably an old hand, someone who started out in the industry. The expected first three chapters were nowhere to be seen; was the opening just filler? The story of the reborn individuals being framed has dragged on for 40 chapters, and aside from that, the writing is terrible. The people who framed them get away scot-free, as if the entire county and township officials are villains? I thought getting the video would bring down one or two villains… This is so frustrating…

Well written

The writing is fluent, the plot is vivid, the story is full of twists and turns, and the writing style is profound. It's a great read.

The municipal government does not have an office, only general offices. Only provincial governments have an office.

As a reborn character driven by his lower body, he completely lacks the vigor of the new era and is somewhat slow.
