You Were Just Asked to Play a Game, So How Did You Become a National Hero?

These kinds of books generally have a problem: in order to make the protagonist seem intelligent, they have to cut out the achievements of thousands of years of civilization. This results in a strange feeling; the protagonist is clearly very capable in the book, but he seems quite stupid. This problem is difficult to solve.

If China had not had the Dujiangyan Irrigation System since the Qin Dynasty, its impact would have been profound and multifaceted, potentially altering the historical course of southwest China and even the entire country. The following is a detailed analysis: ### **1. Agriculture and Economy: The Disappearance of the Land of Abundance**

It's pretty good, but it starts to get toxic from chapter 48 onwards. But calling it poisonous feels like an exaggeration. Starting from chapter 48, the supporting characters become incredibly stupid, and all the old conflict tropes are brought back, making it incredibly frustrating to read.

I don't want to read so much empty talk and pretentious talk. I'm reading this book because I want to see large-scale infrastructure and engineering projects. Real-world large-scale projects are too slow; they take generations to complete. I'm already tired of the empty talk. Hurry up and write about infrastructure, data, and results.

The book's subject matter and plot twists are quite good. However, it's already being padded with unnecessary content before it's even released. What was the author thinking? The same old tropes and plot twists are used repeatedly. Is the author going to just write another paper instead? What's the necessity of this repetitive use of tropes and plot twists?

This book is both padded and clichéd. The Dujiangyan Irrigation System takes up more than forty chapters before we even get to the seminar discussing the feasibility of the project, and it's also interspersed with clichéd scenes of showing off and getting slapped in the face.

The beginning was somewhat interesting, but the romance section became less appealing. After skipping seven or eight chapters, it was still lackluster, and then there was that clichéd, mind-numbingly stupid face-slapping scene. I couldn't take it anymore.

On one side is a rapidly developing society, and on the other side is a naive and ignorant barbarity, where people don't use their brains and their heads are screaming.

Putting the plot aside, the male lead's internal monologues were really unnecessary. He should have just known he was helping the country and would receive benefits; there was no need to keep emphasizing what kind of benefits he was planning to get later. Especially when I saw him already scheming to take the expensive pen someone was carrying, I was speechless. Has the author never seen money in real life? His perspective is so narrow.

This is a case of misrepresentation; it's clearly a student-oriented article and has absolutely nothing to do with games. I'd give it a 7 out of 10, not bad.
