Young County Party Secretary Li Xiangnan takes office with great ambition, ready to make a mark in the ancient Central Plains county of Guling. In just one month, he achieves remarkable achievements and is hailed by the people as "Li Qingtian." However, in the early days of reform and opening up, his bold initiatives inevitably draw resistance and suppression from conservative forces. Li Xiangnan inevitably clashes with the bureaucratic system led by County Mayor Gu Rong. The investigation team arrives, and various rumors also spread like wildfire.
