Reform, especially at the grassroots level, is unlikely to show results in the short term.,
Not to mention ten days or half a month, seeing significant achievements within three years is considered fast... In fact, many reforms, especially those transforming the logic of education, social welfare, and job positions, are criticized more by contemporaries who cannot discern good from bad, and it requires the rational evaluation by the participants' descendants.
Deep-rooted reforms naturally touch fundamentals and reputation, affecting the interests and habits of many people. It's quite normal for them to curse, as they are unlikely to trade their "sacrifices" for a revival ten or a hundred years down the line... To be frank, even if they see or guess it…
"Why should we sacrifice?!"
"Yeah, we are already set in our ways, our lives are stable, why must we adapt to a new environment again?"
