The Road to Power: Starting with a Secondment to a Poor Township

Ye Zhaoming, the youngest deputy section chief at the Yuehai Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment, sticks to his principles and offends the newly appointed department head. He is sent to serve as acting township head in Jinji, the poorest township in the province. As soon as he takes office, Ye Zhaoming is caught in a clash between clan power and the rule of law. After finally resolving the crisis and securing his footing, he faces a fresh set of challenges: his fellow officials are harboring ulterior motives, the pillar industry is barely surviving, poor transport leaves the economy lagging behind, and tensions over public welfare and the rule of law are everywhere. Watch as he pulls off one daring maneuver after another to lead Jinji Township out of poverty and onto the road to the pinnacle of political power!
