Features: On the banks of the Tang River in Xiangyang City, Central China, stands a small town called Qixing Town. This town, located in the Jianghan Plain, has weathered the storms of reform after the 1980s, leaving behind a trail of failures. The novel is set against this backdrop, vividly depicting the newly appointed Party Secretary and Mayor of the town, Ding Yifeng, in the early 1990s—a former Deputy Minister of the Organization Department of Suhe County, who had been tempered in the army and was assigned to the post.
