The story of employee arrogance

During the Han Dynasty, there was a small county in the southwest of China called Tongzi County. Twenty miles east of Tongzi County, there is a small country called Yelangguo. Yelang is an independent country, but its territory is very small, as big as a small county in China. But Yelang Wang is very arrogant! I think my country is very big, and I don't know how big the neighboring countries are! On one occasion, the Han Dynasty sent someone to visit the king of Yelang. He proudly asked, "Which country is bigger, the Han Dynasty or Yelang?" Hearing this, the people in the Han Dynasty couldn't help laughing!

In the future, everyone will use the word "arrogance" to describe those shallow and arrogant people.

According to the records in the Historical Biography of Southwest China of Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian reported the geographical environment, local conditions and customs of the Western Regions in detail to Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty after returning from his mission to the Western Regions. Inspired by the success of Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also invited him to the southwest to communicate with Xia Guo at that time, which is today's Yunnan-Guizhou region.

Zhang Qian and his party arrived in Kunming and Yelang successively. King Dian asked Zhang Qian and others, "Which is bigger than the Han Dynasty?" Later, when the envoys of the Han Dynasty were drinking with Yelang Wang, Yelang Wang also asked the same question: "Which is bigger, the Han Dynasty or Yelang?"

Zhang Qian knew that Yelang's territory was only comparable to that of a county in the Han Dynasty. However, because of the high mountains and dense forests, King Yelang did not go out and thought Yelang was a world power.

"Yelang arrogance" is a metaphor for ignorance and arrogance.

2. Describe an arrogant fable

1, proud pheasant

From Aesop's fable.

The pheasant Tianshan Mountain is beautiful, covered with colorful feathers, shining in the sun, dazzling and amazing. Pheasants are also very proud of this Yu Hua and pity his beauty.

When it walks in the mountains, as long as it comes to the water and sees its own shadow in the water, it will dance and proudly appreciate its unique dance reflected in the water.

When Cao Cao was in the reign of Emperor Wu of Wei, someone gave him a pheasant from the south. Cao Cao was very happy. He called a famous musician and played a beautiful tune for him, so that the pheasants could sing and dance.

The musician blew hard and beat hard, but the pheasant didn't buy it at all, turned a deaf ear, didn't sing or jump. Cao Cao's men brought delicious food and put it in front of the pheasant. The pheasant didn't even look at it, and walked around with his head drooping listlessly.

In this way, no matter how hard we try, we can't make the pheasant dance. Cao Cao was very disappointed and angry. He reprimanded his men and said, "There are so many of you that you can't even deal with a pheasant. How can you do great things? "

Cao Cao has a very fond little son named Cao Chong. Cao Chong grew up smart, well-read and knowledgeable. By this time he moved his head and had an idea. He went to Cao Cao and said:

"Dad, I heard that pheasants are always proud of their feathers, so when they see their reflection in the water, they will dance to appreciate their beauty. Why not ask someone to move a big mirror and put it in front of the pheasant, so that the pheasant can take care of itself?

You can dance automatically. "Cao cao clap your hands and say wonderful. He immediately had the biggest mirror in the palace moved and put it in front of the pheasant. When the pheasant strolled to the mirror, he saw his incomparable beauty at a glance, which was much clearer than what he saw in the water.

First, it flapped its wings and sang excitedly to itself in the mirror for a long time. Then it twisted its body, lengthened its pace and danced. Cao Cao was stunned by the charming dance of the pheasant. He repeatedly high-fived, forgetting to ask someone to take the mirror away.

Poor pheasant, admiring the shadow, tirelessly and endlessly sings and dances in front of the mirror. Finally, it finally exhausted its last strength and fell to the ground and died.

Pheasants are really beautiful, but they are too vain to be fooled. We can't let vanity and competitiveness overcome reason, or we will be defeated.

3. Idiom stories about satirizing those arrogant people

The absurd conceit of Yelang Wang-indulge in conceit

Source "Historical Records Biography of Southwest Yi": "The messenger of the king of Yunnan and the Han Dynasty said,' Which is bigger than the Han Dynasty?' The same is true of Yelanghou. Because of the impassability, each thought that a state owner did not know the vast number of Han people. "

Interpretation of Yelang: The ancient clan and country name were local governments established by ethnic minorities in southwest China during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Qin and Han Dynasties. Yelang's territory is very small, and Yelang Hou has never been to the Han Dynasty, thinking that his territory is bigger than the Han Dynasty. Later, he used the metaphor of "hubris" to describe arrogance.

Story:

From the Warring States Period to the Qin and Han Dynasties, there were many ethnic and tribal alliances in southwest China, among which Yelang was the largest one, mainly distributed in western and northern Guizhou. At that time, Yelang people, both men and women, wore high-spine buns, exposed their right arms when working, and lived a primitive farming life.

"Huayang Guozhi" records: Legend has it that a woman was washing clothes by the drowning person (now Beipanjiang, Guizhou) when she suddenly saw a big bamboo with three sections floating on the water and crying inside. She opened it and saw that it was a boy, so she took it back and raised it. The boy grew up to be a tribal leader. Known as the bamboo king. Later history books described Yelang Wang as bamboo.

At the end of the Warring States Period, the State of Qin seized Bahe and Qianzhong (now Sichuan and Guizhou) in the west of Chu. In order to fight back against Qin, King Xiang of Chu sent general Qiao Zhuang to lead the army to the west along the Yangtze River to recapture the vast land occupied by Qin. The battle of Qiao Zhuang went well. Not only did it recapture central Guizhou in one fell swoop, but it also drove straight into the vicinity of Dianchi Lake (now Kunming, Yunnan). Around Yelang, Galand and other tribal alliances greeted Chu and surrendered. Zhuang was about to lead his troops back to Chu, but he was counterattacked and occupied the middle of Guizhou again, cutting off Zhuang's way home. Qiao Zhuang had to return to Dianchi Lake and was elected as the king of Dian by Yelang, Lan Qi and other tribal leaders.

After Qin Shihuang unified China, he sent people to build roads leading to Yelang and remote areas in southwest China, where he set up counties and sent officials to govern. Yelang and other places were formally incorporated into the territory of the Qin Dynasty. Soon, the Qin Dynasty perished, and the newly established Han Dynasty was too busy to pacify civil strife and deal with the border troubles of Xiongnu in the north, and had no power to take care of the distant southwest region. So Yelang and other places broke away from the jurisdiction of the central government, claiming to be princes and becoming local separatist regimes.

At this time, the Yelang leader is different, calling himself Yelang Hou. Due to the inconvenient transportation, Yelang Hou Duotong has never set foot on a long journey. There are more than a dozen tribes near Yelang, none of which are as big as Yelang. Many people think Yelang is the largest country in the world. One day, Dotong rode out with his entourage. He pointed to the front with a whip and said, "Look! This endless territory. Which country is bigger than it? " The flattering confidant replied, "Your Majesty said that there is no one bigger than Yelang!" Ministers came to the foot of the mountain, looked up at the mountain in front of them and said, "The towering mountain rushed out of the clouds. Can you find a second mountain so high in the world? " The waiter said in unison, "Of course not!" They swam to the river again, dismounted together and said, "The raging river is long and wide. It must be the longest and largest river in the world. " The attendants all said, "Of course!" After this trip, Yelanghou became more arrogant.

At this time of the Han Dynasty, Liang Wudi was in power, and its national strength was unprecedented. In BC 122, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent envoys to ptomaine (that is, ancient India; Body, read Yuan). Passing Yelang. Being cut off from the Central Plains for a long time, Hou Yelang did not understand the situation of the Han Dynasty and asked the messenger, "Which is bigger, Han or Yelang?" Hearing this, the Ambassador of the Han Dynasty smiled and said, "There are dozens of counties in the Han Dynasty, and the territory of Yelang is not as big as that of the Han Dynasty. Which do you think is bigger? " I was shocked when I heard more. In the same year, the Lu family in South Guangdong plotted to launch a rebellion. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty decided to crusade and sent the troops of Ba, Shu and Yelang to participate in the war. After the pacification of South Vietnam, Duotong immediately surrendered to the Han Dynasty and was named King Yelang. Yelang returned to the territory of the Han Dynasty.

I won't have breakfast until the enemy is destroyed-I'm anxious to destroy the enemy immediately.

Source: "Zuo Zhuan" became a public official for two years: "Qi Hou said:' Go eat the ancient jade point!' Run away without introducing the horse. "

Interpretation of this: refers to the enemy in front of you; Chao (Zhao, Zhao) eats: Have breakfast. Destroying this kind of food means eating breakfast after destroying the enemy in front of you, and describes the determination and desire to destroy the enemy.

Story:

In the spring of 589 BC, the Qi army attacked the northern border of Lu, occupied most of the land, and then defeated the reinforcements of Weiguo. Qi Qinggong, who directed the operation, was very proud.

Both Lu and Wei sent messengers to the state of Jin for help. Duke Jing of Jin ordered the general of the State of Jin to lead 800 chariots to come for help. On the way, the armies of Lu, Wei and other countries also joined in, mighty and powerful. Qi Qinggong, relying on his recent military victory, ignored the reinforcements such as Jin and Lu. The armies of the two sides joined forces in Lodi, and Qi Qinggong was eager to fight a decisive battle and make a quick decision, so he challenged the 8 Jin Army and agreed to go to war tomorrow morning. Qi Qinggong managed to stay up until the next morning, dressed neatly, got into the chariot and commanded the Qi army to enter the position. At this time, 8 jin j has also been ready to fight, ready to fight.

Before Qi Qinggong got ready, he beat gongs and drums to attack the city and plunder the land. He shouted, "Warriors of Qi, kill! Defeat the enemy in front of us, and let's have a good breakfast! " Qi's first offensive was extremely fierce. Chariots flooded in and swords rained out. 8 jin j stubbornly resist. Jin Jun's coach Xi Ke was shot in the arm and burst into tears. Although the charioteer Jason was also wounded by an arrow, he still took the drumstick from Dick and beat the drum desperately, encouraging the nomads from the army to rush to kill him.

Qi's condition began to loosen. The Jin army attacked more violently, and the Qi army was defeated one after another. Qi Qinggong fled by car under the protection of his ugly father. He was proud and despised the enemy, thinking that he could "destroy this grain". As a result, he never had time to return to the camp for breakfast, and the result was a fiasco.

Strut one's head high and put on airs

Source: Zuo Zhuan. "Thirteen Years of Huan Gong": "When Chu bends to defeat Luo, the bolt wins and sends it, which means that he is against Japan:' Mo Ao will be defeated, his head is high and his heart is not solid. "'

Interpretation: toe: toe; Toe height: one step higher and full of air. The idiom "cocky" and "cocky" is used to describe arrogance and get carried away.

Story:

Qu Xian of Chu is an incompetent but proud general. In the spring of 70 1 BC, Qu Xian led the Chu army to fight against the combined forces of Yun, Sui, Jiao, Zhou and Guo in Pusao. Due to the large number of allies of the other side, the momentum is grand and the defects are a bit scary. He wants to ask the king of Chu to send more troops. General Menlian objected to this, saying that although there are many enemy allies, their hearts are divided and their fighting spirit is weak. As long as Yunzhou's resistance is defeated, the whole alliance will fall apart. He suggested that we concentrate on attacking Pusao quickly. Qu Xian finally adopted the advice of the League of Doors, stormed Pusuo Mountain, and won a great victory. Qu Xian, on the other hand, took all the credit of others on himself, so he became proud and thought he was a victorious general. Since then, no enemy has paid attention to him.

After two years, the king of Chu sent Qu Xian to attack Luo. On the day of departure, Qu Xian dressed up, bid farewell to the officials who saw him off, and then boarded the gorgeous chariot with dignity and left. Dr. Dobby attended the farewell ceremony. After Qu Xian left, Dobby said to the Imperial Commander, "Mo Ao is going to lose the battle this time! Looking at his swaggering appearance, can he still command the battle calmly and correctly? " Dobby thinks more and more that something is wrong. He ordered to drive to the palace to find the king of Chu. He suggested that the king of Chu send more troops to Qu Xian, but the king of Chu disagreed.

The King of Chu returned to the palace and talked with his wife Deng Man about Dobby's suggestion. Deng Man said, "What Dr. Dou meant was to ask your Majesty to pay attention to General Qu's mood. Since the battle of Pu Sao, he has been so proud and willful. If you don't warn him to converge, you will lose. " The king of Chu also felt justified and sent someone to chase the rebellion. However, the troops going to war have gone far, and the messenger can't catch up, so forget it. Besides, it is even more arrogant to bend the defect to the front line. He forgot that the battle of Pu Sao was won only after Dou Lian's correct opinion was finally adopted, and even ordered the army to "punish those who dared to remonstrate", which was arbitrary and arbitrary. There was no order when Chu army crossed the swimming pool. The soldiers rushed to shoot the ferry as if they were defeated. When they arrived at the gate of Luo Guo, the other side had already waited for the whole army. But QuXian no matter, let the troops camp casually, completely unprepared. Luo Jun joined forces with LuRong's army and fought back fiercely. The Chu army was immediately defeated and suffered heavy casualties. Qu defect fled in a chariot in a mess, and his domineering spirit when he went to war had already disappeared without a trace. When he fled to a place called a deserted valley in Chu, he found himself alone, so sad that he felt that he would never have the face to go back to Beijing to see the monarch and his elders again, so he ended his life with tape on a half-withered tree.

The idiom "copying" refers to the superficial conceit or arrogance of arrogance and ignorance. From Historical Records Biography of Southwest Yi: The king of Yunnan and the ambassador of Han said, "Who is bigger than Han?" . The same is true of Yelanghou. Road impassability, each thinks he is the owner of the state, I don't know the vast number of Han people. Allusion: "Yelang is arrogant" is a kind of idiom with the highest cognitive rate in Chinese circle. China's reference books interpret it as an allegory of conceited people. It is through this idiom that many people know that there was once a Yelang kingdom in southwest China in ancient times. But this idiom is actually a misreading of history. The story of Yelang first appeared in Sima Qian's Historical Records. After the development of southwest China, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent an envoy to Yunnan in 122 BC in order to find the way of ptomaine (present-day India), and he could not go west again. During his stay, the king of Yunnan asked the ambassador, "Who is bigger, Han or me?" Later, when the Han envoy returned to Chang 'an, he passed Yelang, and the monarch of Yelang also raised the same question. This common story later evolved into a household idiom. This idiom has been widely popular in the Qing Dynasty. Pu Songling, a famous writer in the early Qing Dynasty, wrote in Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio: Jiang Fei: "Driving a cannon car makes you arrogant. Relying on the greed of wolves, I am full of respect for Hebo. " The representative novel "Evil Sea Flower" written in the last years of Guangxu wrote in the 24th time: "Hungry tigers think of war, arrogant at night. If China does not attack on a large scale and is discouraged by empty talk from other countries, where will he submit? "

Yelang is arrogant, and the pinyin yè lá ng zà is a metaphor for arrogance.

Source: "Historical Records Biography of Southwest Yi": King of Yunnan, Han Ambassador said: "Who is bigger than Han?" . The same is true of Yelanghou. Road impassability, each thinks he is the owner of the state, I don't know the vast number of Han people.

King Dian said to the envoy of the Han Dynasty, "Who is older than me?" . The same is true of Yelanghou. Because the road is impassable, so each occupies a state owner, I don't know the vast Han Dynasty.

The pronoun of arrogance: pretentious and arrogant.

6. A story about arrogance, 30 words.

There was once a millionaire's office, which was located on the second floor of the First National Bank Building. When he wants to go to the second floor, he will take the elevator; Use the stairs when going downstairs.

He is an arrogant man. He used to be poor, but later he started from scratch.

He is a self-reliant man and is proud of his success.

He pays the rent on time every month, but he doesn't care about those who take care of elevators, clean windows for pedestrians and burn boilers. At Christmas, they won't get a turkey or a little tip.

There is a poor woman cleaning the stairs and halls in the building. He often passed by her, but he didn't realize her existence until recently. He is always on his high horse, and all he can think about is how to make more money.

One day he came out of the office and wanted to go downstairs.

The cleaning lady is standing in the middle of the stairs. She checked whether the stairs were clean from the top. On the top step, there was a wet place and a big bar of soap, on which the millionaire happened to step.

The rich man slipped to the sunrise in the east with one foot on the soap, and the other foot quickly slipped to the sunset. Later, he sat on the top step of the stairs, but he didn't stop there. He began to slide down, but the way of sliding down was not what he expected. Every time he slides, the stairs make a muffled sound like drums.

The cleaning lady stood politely and let him slide down.

Finally, he stood up from the ground floor and considered whether he should go back to the office of the building and ask for the dismissal of the cleaning lady. But he thought that once he told the reason why he wanted to expel her, it would be a joke to others in the building. So he didn't speak.

But from that day on, he began to pay attention to the cleaning lady and walked past her with caution.

No one is noble or dignified enough to ignore those who behave nobly. Because an ordinary cleaning lady and an ordinary bar of soap can make a great man's mind get rid of his career and make trouble at once.

Therefore, don't look to the humblest of God's children, or you may fall from pride and leave with pain and scars. I am even more embarrassed because I suspect that the cleaning lady is standing in the middle of soapy water and smiling. Maybe she will be happier that day because of your funny appearance.

This is an era of lack of laughter, and those who make cleaning women smile are blessed.

7. a short story that makes people not arrogant.

I have heard such a joke before: there was a rich man whose son was stupid and spent a lot of money to hire a famous teacher to teach his son to learn. A year passed and the rich man asked about his son's study. The famous teacher said that he learned six things from seven things. The rich man was very happy and paid the tuition to let the famous teacher go home for the New Year. When guests come home, the rich man always praises his son with the words of a famous teacher. Finally, a tourist exclaimed, "I don't know anything!" The rich thought that knowing nothing meant knowing everything. There was only one thing left, and success was not far away. But I didn't expect my son to be so stupid that the famous teacher couldn't help it.

After a while, I saw a man running out of the shed screaming, followed by a cow. The man ran to ask the farmer for help. The shopkeeper said without looking back, "show me your certificate!" " "
