Under certain conditions, a division could be promoted to the rank of major general. For example, in 1955, Gan Zuchang was unanimously approved by his comrades as a division commander during the military rank appraisal. He reported to his superiors that he felt that his contribution was insufficient and requested to be demoted. After that, he was appointed as a quasi-military rank and awarded the rank of major general.

In 1955, when the general cadre department was awarded the title, it also discussed the issue of evaluating the rank of major general for the division level cadres.

As for whether it was considered slow to obtain the rank of major general at the age of 40, many factors needed to be considered. From the perspective of the military rank promotion system, the speed of military rank promotion was affected by many factors. On the one hand, the promotion policies of the army in different periods and the requirements for the quality and ability of the officers would make the promotion speed different. For example, the promotion of officers before and after the military reform was very different. Before the military reform, there was a large gap in the speed of promotion, and there were also some unhealthy practices that affected promotion. After the military reform, with the promotion of officers 'professionalism, a series of regulations and supporting policies were introduced, the promotion system became more standardized and transparent. On the other hand, a person's special contributions, opportunities, and position were also crucial to promotion. For example, Mao Xinyu joined the army at the age of 30 and was promoted to major general 10 years later. He had many achievements in his study and research in the Academy of Military Sciences, such as obtaining a doctor's degree in three years and becoming a primary researcher of Chairman Mao's thoughts. During his enlistment, he also had many opportunities to develop himself. His promotion was the result of his own efforts, family influence, and many other factors. However, there was no absolute standard to measure whether it was fast or slow to obtain the rank of major general at the age of 40. One had to take into account the variety of different periods, different positions, and different personal development trajectories. The novel " The General's Promotion " is equally exciting.

In the China army, the time needed for an officer to be promoted to major general depended on many factors. There was no fixed time limit. If he were to take the military academy promotion route, under the smoothest circumstances, according to the theory of a lieutenant being promoted every three years and a field officer being promoted every four years, it would take more than 20 years to go from a second lieutenant to a senior colonel. After the first promotion in 1955, some senior colonels were promoted to major general after six years (some senior colonels were promoted to major general in 1961) and nine years (some senior colonels were promoted to major general in 1964). The colonel in 1955 was promoted to major general in 1964, and in the middle, he was promoted to senior colonel in 1961, which was equivalent to two ranks. These people were promoted faster, but this situation was also related to the development of the military rank system at that time. In terms of position, the highest age of service for a division commander was 55 years old. At the age of 55, if there was a chance to be promoted to a deputy military position, the rank of a senior colonel would usually be promoted to a major general one year after the promotion. At this time, the age was 56 years old. Under normal circumstances, a low-level officer needed at least 10 years to be promoted to a major general, but higher positions required longer time. In addition, the military would evaluate whether an officer was qualified for promotion based on factors such as years of service, military skills, political reliability, and leadership ability. The specific promotion time of each officer was also affected by the decisions of the unit and the commander. If the officer performed outstandingly or made significant contributions during a specific period of time, he might be promoted ahead of time. The novel "The General's Promotion" is equally exciting.
