Lin Qinghai was injured in an accident during a military mission, causing Wang Wan'er great concern.

    🔥Firmly upholding his ideals and actively planning, the protagonist steadily climbs the ranks of officialdom in "Rebirth: I Choose the Whampoa Military Academy of Civil Service." After an unexpected rebirth, the protagonist is determined to pursue a political career. He starts by passing the entrance exam for the so-called "Whampoa Military Academy of Civil Service," steadily climbing the ranks step by step, eventually marrying the daughter of a prominent family and embarking on his political career. [Heart] Throughout this process, the novel provides readers with a clear and intuitive understanding of the protagonist's progress, from entering officialdom to becoming a section chief, division chief, deputy director-general, and finally director-general (future deputy minister and minister). [Thumbs up] This book also embodies the pragmatic philosophy that perseverance pays off. In modern society, the civil service, especially leadership positions, is extremely difficult. Not only do they work long hours, but they also face strict anti-corruption measures. Many children of officials do not want to enter politics; many only aspire to be "red-hat merchants" (businessmen with connections to the government), which provides excellent opportunities for ordinary people to enter officialdom.
