There is a saying that gold always shines, but it is not necessarily.
Monkey king
The most important thing for a person is often not ability, but resources.
The most classic example is Emperor Hui of Jin, who once said that the phrase "why not eat minced meat", what can a person with intellectual problems do, but he became the emperor.
If a person with real ability is unlucky, he is likely to be buried for the rest of his life, for example, Li Jing, the first general of the Tang Dynasty, was 47 years old in his first war, needless to say that in ancient times, in modern society, he has already fallen into a mid-life crisis. Like Jiang Ziya, it is said that he only met King Wen of Zhou in his 80s.
After Sun Wukong succeeded in learning art, he ran into two troubles: one was to force weapons to be worn by the Dragon King, and the other was to forcibly sell the dead book from the King of Hades. After being accused to the heavenly court, the Jade Emperor planned to send a general to ambush him according to the usual procedure. However, Tai Bai Xing persuaded a little, and the two reached an agreement and changed to Zhao'an.
Here we can see that the down-to-earth approach to dealing with troubles is to try to minimize the troubles and reduce them to nothing, not necessarily in accordance with the process or rules and regulations on the table. As a famous book, Journey to the West deals with things very realistically. If a person has handled disputes in courts and neighborhood committees, he will deeply understand this, but if he can get benefits from it, he will be eager to make things bigger, so China's neighborhood committee aunt system is at least ahead of the American lawyer system in handling civil disputes, far ahead. Of course, the level of the aunt of the neighborhood committee will also be involved, if you can, this can't be changed to that.
However, if a person lacks experience and ability, he may be on the line, for this kind of incident, the punishment is greater and leads to dissatisfaction with the relevant personnel.
Sun Wukong came up to get a position of Bi Ma Wen, under normal circumstances, this is amazing, after all, Sun Wukong has no merit or performance, so he became an official in the immortal class. Ordinary people are out of reach for Bi Ma Wendang's subordinates, after all, this kind of miscellaneous is also the establishment of the fairy world.
But Sun Wukong's ability is extraordinary, when he learned the details of this position, he disliked the official and small, directly hit the Nantianmen, and returned to Huaguo Mountain to proclaim himself "Monkey King". After the trouble again, you need to mean it or it will be unprovoked to speak, the Jade Emperor arranged for Tota Li Tianwang to take people to teach Sun Wukong a lesson, as a result, the giant spirit god and Nezha were defeated by Sun Wukong successively, Sun Wukong further showed his strength, Tai Bai Xing proposed to recruit again, and named Sun Wukong as the "Monkey King", not to deal with him, not to deal with him. Raise him in the heavens and accept his evil heart. This approach was less costly, and the Jade Emperor immediately accepted it. Having strength can make the more practical other party make a certain compromise, of course, compromise is not bottomless, to what extent depends on strength. If you don't have the strength, you can only try your luck, like Fengxian County, who was punished by the Jade Emperor for not raining for 3 years because of such a trivial matter as the dog eating a tribute.
But then Sun Wukong finally broke into a bigger disaster, stealing and eating peach and elixir, triggering the havoc in the heavenly palace, although Sun Wukong was finally pressed by Rulai under the Five Elements Mountain, but he should be completely famous, and his awesome is well known.
Although it has been pressed for 500 years, but when there is something, talents are needed, and talents are actually there, it depends on who can be thought of at that time, Sun Wukong is now such a famous person, so he was selected for the cause of learning scriptures in the West.
Learn from the West
If Sun Wukong didn't break into any trouble at all, didn't dare to make any mistakes, and kept to himself, he would have died at the age of 342, and he would have been unknown for the rest of his life. Fortunately, the accident forced the death of the dead. If you don't continue to make trouble, you won't be able to eat the elixir made of gold and steel, and you won't be able to eat good things such as peaches and life fruits. There will be no experience in the Heavenly Palace and getting to know all kinds of immortals. There is no chance to show his strength, unlike now, as everyone knows, it can be said that some people who are stronger than Sun Wukong are not as famous as him, and then they will not join the scripture-learning team and achieve positive results.
A blessing in disguise.
As far as the superior is concerned, a bull man, he has made mistakes, and he may be more serious and attentive when he makes up for it. Under normal circumstances, if you say to a cow man what you have done and what benefits you have, it is likely that the cow man will be bored, because he may have to beware of drawing cakes. But if you make a mistake, then you can do things seriously first, and in the end the benefits must be given, so that the cattle will continue to work hard in the future.
This is the so-called "merit is better to make a mistake", and the most famous representative is Li Jing, the first general of the Tang Dynasty.
But after all, cattle people are extremely rare, and if a person does not have much strength, he still tries not to make mistakes and get into trouble. Unless you are really at a good level, but you are either not looking down on it or you can't look down on it, then maybe you really try to make some trouble, change the environment, give up what you no longer want to do or always don't give you benefits, and let more people know about it. However, the accident basically has to pay the price, and it is necessary to be psychologically prepared, and to weigh the degree of the trouble, because the disaster that is too big may not be able to bear it. Like Sun Wukong, he was suppressed for 500 years, in fact, after being arrested in the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor's original punishment was: chop up his corpse, but fortunately, Sun Wukong was able to save his life by making a golden steel body. Li Jing, the first general of the Tang Dynasty, almost died.
