Features: The "number one" of the Provincial Commercial and Trade Bank, Huang Kefan, is about to retire. Around the position of "President," several deputy presidents engage in fierce competition. Deputy President Du Nianji, born into a banking family, has a close personal relationship with President Huang Kefan. To maintain his prestige and status, he granted a massive loan of 2 billion yuan to the Automotive Industry Group, attempting to win the favor of the head of the headquarters and the local government with outstanding work performance. The second deputy president, Cao Pinglin, was born in a savings office at the grassroots level of the bank. Although he lacked innate advantages, he climbed to the position of deputy president of the provincial branch through his hard work. To compete with Du Nianji, he ignored the repeated orders from the State Council and the People's Bank of China, engaged in illegal operations, and attracted deposits with high interest rates, creating outstanding work performance through unlawful means. He embezzled customer funds and bribed the deputy president of the headquarters.

Additionally, the novel portrays characters such as the general manager of the securities company, Che Zhixin; the deputy general manager of the Automotive Industry Group, Li Xiaogang; the shrewd Vice Governor Che; Vice President Li; and the young official Yue Zhenyang.
