Chapter 39: You can know the depth 1
If we consider ourselves to be talents, we should know how important resourcefulness is to a person.Shot when it is time to shoot, and be silent when it is time to converge, so that we can continue to fight against good luck and say goodbye to bad luck.If we can always maintain foresight and foresight, I believe we can enjoy the carnival on the stage of life.

half more than all

In most cases, you can't show your talents, you can't do your best, and you must conserve your energy.Even talent should be properly reserved, which will make you deeper.A person who is far-sighted and far-sighted can always steer the course safely.We'd rather believe a biting fallacy: half is more than all.

Concealment is not timidity, nor is it a retreat. It is an aspect of prudence, and it does not prevent people from moving forward boldly. "Tibet" is actually just to tell people to be more scheming, save some city mansions, and not expose themselves completely to the world, so as to prevent people with evil intentions from taking advantage of them.Although a gentleman is magnanimous, it does not mean that a gentleman has nothing left.Don't reveal your talents, this is a truth that even saints are familiar with.

Many masters in history have always maintained a life attitude that seems to be sleeping but not sleeping, not close or far away. They seem to be not interested in anything, and they live peacefully without contending with the world.They either "picked chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and saw Nanshan leisurely", or lived in a busy city, and their hearts were still as clear as a mirror.Although far away from right and wrong, every time he turns out to be born, he will do amazing things, and then continue to enjoy himself.Most of the famous hermits in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were such masters.When the king asked for something, they would not hesitate to teach them, but they were not greedy for merit, and continued to live a carefree life.This is exactly the demeanor of a wise man who "does nothing but does great things" and "uses nothing has great usefulness".

Great wisdom is like a fool, but a wise man is not sharp.Smart people are less paranoid and more open-minded; less stubborn and more gentle; less maverick and more self-concealed.It's hard for you to see any sharpness in them, because they never express themselves impassionedly, and never deliberately show how powerful they are. They know how to hide and accumulate.

Hiding deeply is the choice of the wise, and it is also the life rule that those who want to achieve success should abide by.The so-called "Three years of silence, one blockbuster; three years of non-flying, one soar to the sky", such a far-sighted person will be able to safely control the course of his career once he makes a move.

"Casio" and "Seiko" are two deadly rivals in Japan's electronic information industry.Seiko, known for producing Swiss-style watches, outperformed Casio for a short period of time.

Back then, Casio was already a popular brand in Japan.In the watch industry, the top and bottom of the ranking will cause a big difference in product grade and marketing volume.When Seiko surpassed Casio, how could the latter just sit still?
Therefore, Casio learned from the painful experience and decided to block the news and hide his strength.

On the surface, Casio pretended to be very low-key, pretending to be inferior, and released news at an appropriate time, saying that due to fierce competition, the company was going to change its business.In fact, it set its sights on the new field of display technology using quartz crystals as oscillators, and warned all employees not to disclose it to the outside world.After many secret experiments, Casio finally developed a quartz electronic watch with higher accuracy and lower cost than the original one.Casio developed a series of new electronic products while the iron was hot. In addition to electronic watches, there were also tape recorders, electronic clocks, word processors, timers and televisions.

When the product was put on the market, Casio suddenly made a big publicity, which caught Seiko by surprise, and it was too late to catch up.Later, Casio used the same method to develop and produce a series of new products based on LCD TVs, becoming the vanguard of the industry.

The operators of Casio have realized that if Seiko knows in advance that they are going to develop these products, the other party will be prepared, either to develop similar products as soon as possible, or to develop hostile products, which will cause a lose-lose situation, at least Allow yourself to cut your market share in half.

In the mode of competition in the modern world, there must be far-sighted strategies. Sometimes it is necessary to bluff and show off with great fanfare;This is the truth of the so-called keeping a low profile, recharging your energy, and winning by surprise.

If you want to be successful, you must be patient.Although hiding is painful, it is much stronger than not hiding.A philosopher once said: "Be smarter than others, but don't tell them that you are smarter than him." Can't hide it.
