Indian entrepreneur in China travels 1,600 km by train for a 3-hour meeting: ‘Returned to sleep in my bed’ | Trending

“So, I traveled 1600 km in a single day for a 3-hour meeting and wasn’t dead by the end. This shows how convenient life in China is. I took a train in the morning, traveled 800 km one way, had a meeting, and returned at night to sleep in my bed,” the Indian entrepreneur wrote.

Bansal continued that the stations are massive in China. Talking about the boarding process, he continued, “You enter the platform just 10 minutes before departure, and the gates open on both sides, east and west. You simply scan your national ID or passport at the scanner, and the door opens.”

Bansal further explained, “Once I reached a station half an hour early, a security person approached me, checked my ticket, and took me to the counter to change it for a train that was departing in the next 10 minutes. Mind you, I said nothing; this fellow did all this on his own. He could have ignored me.”
