Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

It was not until this moment that Wentao realized, as if awakened from a dream, that the dissenting classmate Liang Longxi was talking about was actually himself!

He didn't want to be in the spotlight, but now the knife was at his neck, so he had to be in the spotlight!

"Teacher Liang, I personally believe that high-speed rail is the best mode of transportation that best suits our national conditions!" Wen Tao said in a decisive tone with a determined look on his face and a sharp gaze looking ahead.

His voice echoed in the spacious classroom, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves.

The students who had been listening quietly suddenly became excited and started whispering to each other after hearing this.

"Which class is this guy from? He's so bold, he actually dared to openly refute Professor Liang's point of view. I'm afraid he's going to have to pay the price!"

The girl next to her added, "That's right. He's really a young man who's not afraid of tigers. Professor Liang is an authority in the academic world. What he said is just nonsense!"

"This guy isn't even a student in our department. Has anyone seen him before?"

For a moment, all kinds of discussions came one after another, filling the entire classroom.

Wen Tao ignored these discussions. He took a deep breath, raised his voice again, and spoke passionately, "As everyone knows, our great China is vast and rich in resources, and is currently in a golden period of vigorous economic development. It is foreseeable that in the near future, our country will usher in an unprecedented surge in population, economic scale, and private car ownership! If we only limit our current perspective to examining transportation construction planning, we will undoubtedly make an unforgivable mistake!"

Wen Tao paused briefly, looked around, and continued, "High-speed rail, as an efficient, convenient, and environmentally friendly means of transportation, can not only significantly shorten the distance between cities and promote coordinated regional development, but also effectively alleviate the pressure on road transportation, reducing energy consumption and environmental pollution. Therefore, in the long run, vigorously developing the high-speed rail industry is of vital strategic significance for promoting the sustained and healthy development of my country's economy and society!"

"Haha, what you said is just your groundless speculation! Even if there are more private cars, can they completely block the spacious highway? Besides, building a high-speed railway is not a simple matter. We must comprehensively consider our country's overall strength, financial situation, and the necessity of its existence! Everything you said is simply worthless and meaningless!" Liang Longxi refuted with disdain.

With Liang Longxi's limited vision and knowledge, he could never have imagined that just ten years later, private cars would actually cause highways to fall into serious congestion!

Not only that, just a few years later, a heartbreaking disaster broke out!

Tens of thousands of migrant workers, students and other types of workers who went out to work were forced to stay in various stations due to the serious shortage of transportation capacity.

The scene was crowded and chaotic, which unfortunately led to a stampede, resulting in many casualties.

What is even more tragic is that many of them were unable to return to their hometowns to reunite with their families until the Chinese New Year and other holidays.

"Professor Liang, if you insist on this point of view, then I have nothing more to say. After all, what I have said is just some superficial views based on my personal understanding."

"Huh? I, a teacher, said a few words to you, and you are not happy?" Liang Longxi widened his eyes and looked at Wen Tao in front of him in disbelief. His originally kind face instantly became gloomy.
