Inspirational article: We are just lions trapped in iron cages

In October 1997, the Asian financial turmoil raided Hong Kong, and a fashion company suffered the same fate as many other companies. After the general manager dismissed the employee, he took only one assistant to another company to find a job for the general staff. In that company, the general manager and assistants were surprised to find that their department head turned out to be a former employee of their company.
When the supervisor recognized the general manager and his assistants, they not only did not give convenience, but often gave them small shoes. He is not only sneering in words, but also extremely difficult in his work. Whenever this happens, the general manager will be silent, just laughing and laughing, and he is busy with his own business.
The assistant of the general manager could not stand the grievance, and complained in front of the general manager: "He used to be an ordinary employee of our company. Is it not arrogant to make a difference? It doesn't matter to me, I really don't. Understand that you have been a general manager before, how can you get this gas!"

The general manager did not directly answer the assistant's question, but told him a fable story. Since the lion was placed in the iron cage, the fox changed his former respectful attitude and yelled at the lion. But the lion is not angry, why is this? Because the lion understands that it is not a lion that makes the fox so arrogant, but a cage that traps the lion.
Finally, the general manager said: "What we are going to do now is not to fight the fox, but to find a way to break through the iron cage. Now the iron cage surrounding us is a financial storm, and the way to break through the cage is to continuously learn. Other people's advanced technology!"
Since then, the assistant has not only complained in front of the general manager, but also quietly followed the general manager and worked and studied silently in other companies. Ten years later, they finally made a comeback. The general manager is the president of Hong Kong's "Ma Tiannu" fashion group and Mr. Huang Minjie, the billionaire.
Now, Huang Minjie will still often tell the assistants the years when he was trapped in the iron cage. He said: "If we can't stand the contempt of others in the cage, we will use our energy to fight others, instead of using it. Learning, how can there be today's days?"
Yes, when people are in the workplace, anyone may encounter disappointment. Once they fall into the bottom of their careers, they will always be treated with cold eyes. These little people are like foxes. At this time, if you choose to fight with them, then you choose to sink; if you believe that you are a lion, choose tolerate, and put limited energy into your career, then there is still a chance to recreate brilliant.
