Chapter 18 Section 3 The lion really turned into a donkey

"Don't underestimate the role of the sign!" Ximen Qing said seriously, "Let me tell you a story" - the story says that the lion woke up early in the morning and found a sign hanging on its chest, which read With "Donkey".There is also an explanatory text below, which reads "Identified by the World Federation of Animals, you are a donkey with musical talent, numbered ××××××" and so on. The lion was very confused, and ran to the animals to prove it. "I am obviously a lion, how can you give me a donkey tag?" It asked angrily. The bison said: "I also feel strange. You can ask the monkey!"

The monkey said, "Are you a donkey? My God, the donkey has grown up like this!" The goat said, "I see. You have the appearance of a lion, but your essence is a donkey." The fox said: "Essence is essence. No matter how you pretend, you are a donkey." The lion became more and more panic-stricken, and hurried to find the donkeys for proof. The leader of the donkey group also looked at the sign and said, "Since you are a donkey with musical talent, why don't you sing well, but dress yourself as a lion?" After repeated verifications, the lion finally believed that it was a donkey.It was inexplicably emotional, suddenly raised its head, and let out a donkey bray of "uh ah".

This is really: "Water can turn into a canal everywhere, and a lion can turn into a donkey." How can the role of signs be underestimated? Some authoritative leaders and experts also often like to play this labeling game.There is an official proverb that says: "If you say you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't do it, you can do it. If you say you can't, you can't do it, and if you can't do it, you can't do it." If you say you are a lion, you are not a lion at first, but you can become a lion inexplicably later.Say you are a donkey, you were not a donkey at first, but you really became a donkey later.Facts have proved that signs have a powerful suggestive effect, and eventually form the subconscious mind, exerting a subtle influence on the existence and changes of life.

"What a good idea!" Wu Song praised, "Next time I see a tiger, I will also tag it—you are a sick cat. When it really becomes a sick cat, it will save me the trouble of beating it." "Everyone, everyone knows that Chai Daguan has the nickname 'Little Xuanfeng'. Ximen Daguan has always had the nickname, 'Liu Li Lion'." Another person at the banquet, named Li Waichuan, waved a folding fan towards Ximen. Qing joked, "May I ask you, are you a lion? Or a donkey?" Ximen Qing suddenly became angry from embarrassment.He also had a folding fan in his hand, and he folded it and slammed it on Li Waichuan's head, cursing: "You are a stupid ass!"

Wu Song's admiration for Ximen Qing has not changed in any way because of Li Waichuan's ridicule and Ximen Qing's gaffe. "Listening to Jun's words is better than reading ten years of books!" He sighed with emotion. "Wu Song is dull, so there are so many mysteries in the business classics!" Wu Song clasped his fists and asked sincerely, "May the officials teach me!" Ximen Qing said: "You and I are friends, what are you talking about teaching or not? You come to the Lion House some other day, and I will talk to you in detail."
