At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty in
China, there was a young and famous writer called Mi Heng.
There is a story about him in the history
books.
The most powerful official in China at that
time was called (Cao Cao).
The king is just Cao Cao's puppet, and Cao
Cao has more power than the king.
Cao Cao heard that he was a very talented
person and wanted to recruit him into his administrative team.
But he didn't like Cao Cao, so he refused
Cao Cao's recruitment.
Cao Cao later heard that he was good at
playing the drums, so Cao Cao issued an order on behalf of the king.
This order required him to join the Royal
Drum Corps.
There was no way he could refuse the King's
order, so he joined the Royal Drum Corps.
A few months after he joined the drum
corps, a big banquet was planned at the palace.
During this banquet, Cao Cao deliberately
arranged for the Royal Drum Corps to perform.
Cao Cao prepared a new uniform for the
members of the Royal Drum Corps.
On the day of the banquet, all the members
of the drum corps wore new uniforms and performed.
But (Mi Heng) didn't wear a new uniform, he
wore an old uniform.
At Cao Cao's suggestion, one of the
presiding officials who was assisting at the meeting accused him.
Why don't you wear a new uniform like
everyone else?
he replied calmly.
It turns out that I have to wear new
uniforms. Sorry, I overlooked that. ,
I will put on this new uniform right away.
Having said this, he slowly took off all
his clothes and stood naked on the stage in the middle of the banquet hall.
Then he picked up the new uniform and
slowly put it on.
While he was taking off and putting on his
clothes, he kept his eyes on Cao Cao who was sitting in the guest area.
Cao Cao also looked at him quietly.
When Mi Heng finished his performance and
left the stage, Cao Cao smiled.
Cao Cao smiled and said to the other
officials around him
I had heard before that this young man was
a man of great character, so I originally intended to use this opportunity to
dampen his spirits.
I didn't expect him to end up dampening my
spirits.
Dear friend, what inspirations or thoughts
do you have after listening to this story?
If you were Cao Cao, how would you react?
What do you think the consequences of his actions would be?
I hope this story can give you some new
insights.

中國的東漢王朝末年，有一個年輕的著名的文學家，他的名字叫做(禰衡)。
歷史書上記載了一個關於他的故事。
當時中國最有權勢的官員名字叫做(曹操)。
國王只是曹操的傀儡，曹操的權力比國王更大。
曹操聽說他是一個很有才能的人，因此想要招募他加入自己的行政團隊。
但是他不喜歡曹操，所以他拒絕曹操的招募。
曹操後來又聽說他很會打鼓，所以曹操就用國王的名義發出命令。
這道命令中要求他加入皇家鼓隊。
他沒有辦法拒絕國王的命令，所以他加入了皇家鼓隊。
他加入鼓隊的幾個月後，皇宮中籌畫舉辦了一場盛大的宴會。
這場宴會中，曹操刻意安排皇家鼓隊演出。
曹操為皇家鼓隊的成員們準備了一套新的制服。
宴會當天，鼓隊的所有成員們都穿著新的制服出場演出。
但是(禰衡)沒有穿新的制服，他穿著舊的制服。
在曹操的暗示下，有一個協助會議進行的主持官員指責他。
你為何沒有跟其他人一樣穿新的制服呢?
他很沉靜的回答。
原來要穿新的制服啊，不好意思，我疏忽了。，
我現在立刻換上這套新的制服。
他說完這句話後，他就慢慢脫去自己身上的全部衣服他赤裸地站在宴會廳中間的表演場地上。
他接著拿起這一套新的制服並且慢慢地穿上這一套制服。
在他脫衣服與穿衣服的時候，他的眼睛一直注視著坐在賓客區中曹操。
曹操也靜靜地看著他。
當禰衡表演結束並且離開舞台後，曹操笑了。
曹操笑著對他周圍的其他官員說。
我以前就聽說這個年輕人是一個很有個性的人，所以我本來想利用這個機會挫他的銳氣。
我沒有想到結果變成他挫了我的銳氣了。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你如果是曹操，你會有怎樣的反應呢?你認為他的行為會為他帶來什麼後果呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
