The lion's butcher shop--a parable of a trained teacher

Editor's note: Prior to more than the net published article "This year, leaving the new Oriental, the famous teachers", the end of a reference to a lion to open a butcher's fable, the author for the former New Oriental teacher du knowledgeable. Many teachers have expressed empathy for this fable and have produced a strong resonance. Today, Mr. Du finished the second chapter of the parable, multi-Knowledge network will be "Lion Butcher" one, 22 full text, readers, the following is the full text of the fable: People watch Lions: Butcher shop dispensers, large shareholders, depending on the butcher shop for life; Tiger: early partner of the butcher shop, then left the butcher shop to engage in the Swan investment; After leaving the butcher shop instead to engage in swan investment; old Wolf: Butcher's main hunter, can kill wild boar bison wild Horse; Jackal: Butcher, can be active hunting atmosphere, can kill rats, dog: Butcher, can kill mice, chicken-fighting Bank Treasurer: The sponsor of the butcher's shop, the lion to the upper class society. ——————————————————— (a): The lion opened a butcher shop, at first hired a group of wolves to hunt, the reward is very high, often hit bison wild deer boar. Lions do not teach hunting skills to wolves, the main energy used in promotional shops, attracted everyone to buy meat. With the increasing number of customers, lions think the main butcher's reputation played a role, so the reward for the wolf gradually lowered, the result of many wolves left, their own small butcher shop. So the lion changed a batch of puppies to hunt, but the dog can only catch mice, the customer gradually lost. There were some jackal in the wolves of the butcher's, who had a weaker hunting ability but were able to hunt the atmosphere. Wolf left Jackal very embarrassed: Want to go with the wolves, wolves do not want to stay in the lion's hands also afraid of embarrassing. Then the lion said: "Nothing little jackal you stay, I will declare the boar is you call, you hold out for a while." But I will give you face, the reward should be lowered or to drop. Jackal listened with gratitude. Then the lion said to the customer and the new puppy: "Jackal is our Elder, before the wild boar bison, I fought with Jackal." Customers listened, some shook their heads and left, but a lot of them continued to buy meat. Although the butcher shop only sells mice, but I believe there will be wild boar to eat sooner or later. Dogs are even more jackal worship, because lions never mention wolves, so puppies do not even know there is a wolf. When the lion propaganda jackal good deeds, the most unpleasant is some have not left the old wolf. These old wolves have feelings for the butcher shop, not willing to go. As a result, the lion put the Old Wolf and Jackal put together propaganda, old wolf heart of humiliation feeling spontaneously. And some jackal is opposite, they after the lion's public propaganda, repeatedly claiming to be wolves, to open a butcher shop alone, can never really leave. The new puppy heard the Jackal of the story after the blood, on the initiative to Jackal to ask the experience of boar. Where he knows these "jackal", some are actually wolves. But saw a circle found the mystery: Jackal are in the butcher shop to tell the wonderful scene of the wild boar, but really hunting can only diao back to the mouse, and old Wolf silently, a go out to bite dead boar, dragged back to their nest eat, almost not to butcher shop in Diao. If he had seen it, the puppy thought Jackal could not catch the boar because the boar hadExtinct! Old Wolf is to the home Diao Wild boar, was hit by a puppy, still feel embarrassed: an age also earn extra money, is contrary to lion butcher spirit. The puppy realized that the old wolf was wronged in the butcher's shop and expressed his sympathy while expressing his admiration. Old Wolf told puppy: "Boy, this world wild boar Many is, as long as has the ability, can not eat up to die." "Press the puppy wolf over there not watch, and on lions and Jackal." Jackal with novice every day can only catch mice, Butcher's customers are not satisfied, and the more customers, the butcher's reputation will hit faster. The lion was in a hurry, for two reasons. First the lion's butcher shop is a friend of the expansion, as long as the lion business good friends have dividends; if the business is bad, the friend's money will be wasted. The lion is more trustworthy, and once he has lost his friend's money he will have a hard time (he is not afraid of his friends to beat him, because the general friend can not beat him); the second is more serious, because all the Jackal and puppies under the banner of the lion selling rat meat, say will be called Lion Spirit, so down the lion feel that their first fame is inevitably ruined. The lion, after all, is a lion, he has the ability to hit a wild boar, but not that idle kungfu. Lion improvisation, come up with a way: Focus on the Old Wolf and Jackal, in the winter to do a large-scale hunting, must catch wild boar bison wild Horse, let the disappointed customers open their eyes, revive the prestige of the Lion butcher shop! He said fondly in the mobilization meeting: "Before, we ignored the old wolf, in the future we will really improve the treatment of old wolves!" What the old wolf catches, just ... The words to half stopped. The lion's words stopped because he found the problem: if the old wolf caught all the prey to the old wolf, the butcher shop is no profit, and the butcher shop is to take friends of the money expansion, no profit friends do not agree. If less to the old Wolf, the old Wolf will leave, because they have the ability to catch wild boar, there are many left the wolf on their own hunting is very good, leaving the old Wolf has endured to the limit. If the old wolf again left the formation of wolves, the butcher shop I am afraid to be discredited. The Lion sighed: "I already knew I shouldn't borrow money." "When the lion opened the butcher shop, a total of three members of the partnership, as well as the lion pulled in the good friend Tiger and Leopard." When three brothers are difficult to be divided into one side, in the town of great momentum, attract the fierce wolves have joined. At this time, the town's shrewd people saw the business opportunities, find the Lion Tiger Leopard: "Your butcher's reputation so loudly, if scale can enlarge 10 times times, that does not make a profit?" I know some friends are very rich, if you want, I can ... "I can sponsor you and let some rich people buy some of your stakes at a high price," he continued. You use their money to expand, and earn some dividends for them. Of course, give me a sum of money as a commission. If the business is going well and everyone wants to buy your shares, the value of the original shares in the three hands will turn tens of thousands of times! "The Lion Tiger Leopard listens, thinks this is the good sale which everybody benefits!" The lion asked, "I've heard this before, and I didn't expect to fall on my head!" Are you the treasurer of the legendary China-Rooster Bank? The man replied. The lion asked, "the rich are said to have a temperEccentric, not human, is not the dividend requirements are very harsh? "Chicken Fight Bank shopkeeper smile:" This is normal, we these people and you butcher different, do not talk about human feelings, but credit. Are you keeping your word? "The lion was chicken-fighting bank shopkeeper asked a question, consciously not respected:" We peasant is the most trustworthy use! My mother used to say, "There is still, it is not difficult to borrow." I've been doing this all these years! Do not believe you ask the tiger and leopard, they all know, otherwise will not come with me to open a butcher shop. "The shopkeeper laughed:" Ask them what use, fear is that you three do not speak credit! Just, I just accept my intermediary fee, the credit God horse left to the shareholders worry about it. After thinking about it, the boss of the chicken-fighting bank made up his mind, but in order to keep the mystique in front of the country people, he did not put the words on the cards. You put the butcher's business situation, prospects, financial, organizational structure and so on all the circumstances, just wait for us to test! "Lightly, the ecstasy of a huge commission will be covered up. Until now, that chicken-fighting bank treasurer's polite, professional and cold Noble look also appeared in The Lion's mind. After that, the lion never caught a living thing, even a mouse. Because the wolf is constantly in the occupation, with those jackal embellishment, life has become very beautiful, full. Although the Tiger leopard is not as rich as the lion, but also around millions of waist, left the butcher shop to do similar to the boss of the Bank of the business, called Swan Investment. Lions continue to stay in the butcher shop, he has been the butcher shop as a life, especially after the Tiger leopard left, almost all the butcher shop with the lion, but also by the lion's own will. Of course, this kind of life is extremely beautiful, the Lions have made a lot of high, and those people, if not a chicken-fighting bank treasurer of the sponsorship, Lions alone butcher shop is never contact. Butcher Shop is still a butcher shop, but recruit the stock is not the same, recruit the stock is no longer a rustic, but the social all kinds of envy, worship, covet, use, cling to, observe the monument. For lions, the key is, true love is their own butcher's, or everyone's monument? If Love is the butcher shop, it will naturally be the most sacred and lovely monument, no matter how others look at, if love that monument, we must let everyone up and down and touch. Once this option is decided, it will be difficult to turn back. The lion also hesitated, after all, the butcher when life only he one, but the shopkeeper, Tiger Leopard brother and the town of the rich and even all kinds of unauthorized people, all strongly support the IPO financing, feel is a good thing, the lion half-hearted agreed. Sitting in the rostrum of the winter mass hunt mobilization meeting, facing a few not to leave the old wolf and those who will not leave the Jackal (puppies are not eligible to attend, but also in the outside to catch mice), the past vividly remembered, the lion heart suddenly rise a burst of solemn and stirring. He did not go on to the words, but calmly stressed: "We just propaganda butcher shop, waste a lot of resources, in the future will certainly be back to everyone here!" "The Lions say, sad and helpless is the old wolves,That feeling is like a whole heart into the feelings but be cheated of the girl, face to kneel down on the double knees of the ungrateful Lang: listen to more than not hear more sad, believe him than not believe more wronged, the final outcome is not good to say, throw ya a slap is necessary. Nervous and Anxi is the Jackal: Old Wolf to back in the wild boar! Must have the psychological preparation, fortunately returns bullish, did not walk also can enjoy the treatment, earned! The people in the room thought about it, only to hear someone knocking at the door. It turned out to be the town of the rich Lord, heard the recent sharp decline in butcher shop, specially come to interrogation. As for the lion reply, although the public information, but the public and puppies may inadvertently read, or do not write advisable. And the younger brother Evans, the story is pure fiction, if there is a similar pure shocking, but the life of the Final solution, I wish everyone can find their answer. (b) Last time, the town's shareholders questioned the bad results of the butcher's shop. The lion, while planning large-scale hunting, while dismissing the puppy, while preparing to repurchase shares. Now, three things are interesting. "Mass hunt" lions gathered all the Old Wolves, old Jackal, hoping to catch some wild boar, let customers open their eyes to revive the reputation of the butcher shop. Objectively speaking, the effect is still significant, but from the point of view of the old wolf is more silent. For example, an old wolf nicknamed "Dapeng", early on behalf of the town to participate in martial Arts challenge race, took the first prize. It is supposed to go out to fight wild boar can also be very good, but on the one hand, Dapeng very loyal, on the other hand, he thought dozen wild boar than "mobilizing its troops" prestige, so always on the butcher shop never abandon. The lion was very important to him, "adversity to see the truth" under the more valued, let him first try to manage a rudder, so that in the future to serve as a more significant job in the butcher shop. One day, Dapeng went out to take part in mass hunting and was very tired. Back to the shop, old Jackal and puppy welcome, end up with a large market rats. Dapeng want to cry no tears, a sudden roar: "and TM is a mouse!" If any of you dare to catch a mouse, I have one to destroy! "Dismiss puppy" This problem is a dilemma, in fact, the butcher shop in the small dog's money is not much, dismissal also save how much cost, but shaken morale. But who can dismiss a puppy? Old Wolf, Jackal? Luckily, the lion found that it did not need to be intuitively imagined: 100 puppies, 50 of whom were dismissed. In fact, because the butcher's fund is tight, the puppy's treatment is extremely meager, catches the mouse, eats only the grass (not like the old wolf to catch is the boar, at least also can eat the mouse). So still not to dismiss, the puppy has lost 80, but need to recruit 40, real dismissal only 10, the personnel department of the shop is busy. "Repurchase shares" according to the butcher's earnings, the lion has 17.8% shares, the lion's old mother is also 17.8% (the Lion Family Total 35.6%), while the butcher's deputy shopkeeper Eagle and Dragon, there are 1.2%. The lion has decided to buy back 1.5% of its shares in the name of senior management, boosting shareholder confidence since the butcher's report has fallen and the stock price has tumbled. Of course, the repo money is mainly on his own, after all, 1.5% also want tens of millions of, eagle and the sum of the total also but so, not too much spare money. But the Lions still want to take this opportunity to test the Vice treasurer's loyalty. He was very pleasant: "Kitty, Little Dragon, I have long wanted to buy back shares of privatization, we do not be angry with the shareholders, or the company to buy the home, their own stuffy sound to make a big fortune." If you have money on hand, come together! The 1.5% shares, you are free to choose, the lack of me to make up. "The Eagle and the Dragon Heart are ready." On their own interests, they are unwilling to participate in repurchase. If they deserve more, it should be in the performance of the brilliant, rather than the current bailout. Moreover, the butcher shop problem has been there, there is no cure, the quarterly loss is only the tip of the iceberg, the future situation is not optimistic. Stock prices have fallen a little bit, far from bottoming out, and repurchase is not a sensible way to finance them. But they have a way to avoid personal financial damage while showing their loyalty: when a rational valuation of an asset is lower than the price, there are still people can earn money by selling low, but must have someone else to take over the line, also known as "Bo silly." It's like beating a drum, only the last one is going to rot the flower in his hand. In fact, before each asset bubble burst, there will be a "bo silly" time, some long, some short. And as the deputy treasurer of the butcher, they are actually the first stick. And the first stick of the drumming is usually not the last. So the eagle and the dragon attitude are very positive, said to try to become a variety of assets to buy back the butcher stock. The lion is very satisfied, the hardcore fans are still around, this feeling is very good. In fact, when it comes to repurchase shares, especially when the stock price is higher, "buying" is not a signal of confidence among policymakers, "buying and not selling" is. If the drums are ringing, are you going to pass the flowers? "Declaration" This article is purely fictitious, if the similarity is pure shocking.
