Features: A powerful anti-corruption work that confronts justice with evil, kindness with cruelty, and power with money, striking at the realities of life. During a time of confusion about the future, Wang Bu Fan suddenly receives the good news from the Provincial Party Committee that he is appointed as the Political and Legal Affairs Commissar of Tianye City. After taking office, the complex and ever-changing situation in Tianye makes it difficult for him to adapt. The election defeat of Acting Mayor Ouyang Song leads to the exposure of two corrupt officials—Party Secretary of the Municipal Committee Lei Youyin and Executive Vice Mayor Bao Pingjun. Because of his past role as the secretary to former Provincial Party Secretary Hu Yan Lei, Mayor of the Municipal Committee Hou Shoushan rises two ranks in a short time, becoming the new Acting Mayor of Tianye. A fire at Tianye Film Studio kills 298 people, and Hou Shoushan also meets a tragic end. Wen Shiyuan becomes another Acting Mayor. In the midst of personnel changes, Wang Bu Fan steadily rises. In his struggle against corrupt elements, Wang Bu Fan matures increasingly, while his integrity and soul are also put to the test time and again.
