Qi State attacked Song State . Song State was afraid, so he asked Zang Zizi to go south to Chu State to mobilize reinforcements. King Chu agreed very happily! However, Zang Sunzi went back with a sad face! His coachman was very surprised: "The King of Chu has promised to send troops to save Song, why are you still worried?" Zang Sunzi said: "Qi is a powerful country, but in order to save the weak Song, you offend the powerful Qi. No matter how you look at it, it’s not worth it! But the King of Chu agreed so simply with a happy face, he must not really want to help Song!”
Sure enough, Qi State captured five cities of Song State, and Chu State never sent reinforcements. Come!
It can be said that Zang Sun Tzu is a talented person who is good at observing words and emotions. He can see through the essence from superficial phenomena and understand the true appearance of human nature!
In this strange society, we often encounter this situation! Especially when you are asking for something from someone, if the other person makes a big promise, but the result is not good, be prepared for failure!
I have to say that this is also a philosophy of life!
