This is a historical biography introducing the historical celebrity Guan Zhong. The book contains a lot of dialogue and detailed descriptions, making the audience feel like they are hearing the story. With his own efforts, Guan Zhong put himself through many tests from a humble background and achieved world-renowned achievements. He helped Qi to achieve hegemony and develop the economy, put the people first, paid attention to the rule of law, was proficient in everything, and achieved success in various fields. He was a great reformer and thinker, and a competent prime minister who assisted the emperor in achieving hegemony. His life is worth savoring.
Guan Zhong, a famous politician and military strategist in the Spring and Autumn Period, has remained famous throughout the ages because of his unique personality charm, courage and arrogant wisdom. In this book, the author vividly describes Guan Zhong's experience and growth when he was young, as well as the process of gradually emerging on the political stage. At the same time, through in-depth observation and analysis of Guan Zhong's words and deeds, the author vividly demonstrates Guan Zhong's excellent qualities such as optimism, tenacity, wisdom, and courage, and presents a true and three-dimensional image of Guan Zhong to readers.
Guan Zhong, a famous prime minister of his generation, helped a vassal state dominate the world; and he proposed advanced and people-friendly governance concepts. He can be said to be a rare management wizard in a thousand years. This book starts from Guan Zhong's ancestors and depicts such a life experience. The indissoluble bond between the heroes in troubled times and the fate of the Qi State; when Guan Zhong was sick in bed at the end of his life, Qi Henggong sighed as if he had lost his footing, which is enough to show the deep feelings between the monarch and his ministers and the important position of Guan Zhong in the Qi State. His heroic appearance will live on through the ages. He has passed away, but his personality charm and political achievements will remain immortal.
Recently, I read Mr. Zhang's biography of Guan Zhong, and learned from the book the life experience of Guan Zhong, a prime minister in ancient times, and some of the processes of how he achieved the hegemony of Qi. Guan Zhong's life character cannot be discussed much. Duke Huan of Qi called him "Father Zhong", which shows Guan Zhong's status in Duke Huan of Qi. "Guan Bao's Friendship" has been passed down through the ages. Achieving hegemony requires an enlightened and persuasive leader "Qi Huangong", and more importantly, the support of a strong ally, "Bao Shuya". We also need capable and capable direct assistants around us. The hegemony of Qi was not so much created by Guan Zhong, but I think it was gradually formed by the character and character of Duke Huan of Qi-Gongzi Xiaobai.
An interpretation of the life of Guan Zhong, the teacher of a generation of saints. Guan Zhong assisted Duke Huan of Qi to become the first of the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period. He respected the king and resisted the barbarians, and ruled the world. He was revered as "Father Zhong" and "Guan Zi", and was also known as the "Pioneer of Legalism" and "The First Prime Minister of China". Confucius commented on Guan Zhong: "If I don't care about Guan Zhong, I would be sent to the left." This means that without Guan Zhong, we would all have disheveled hair, open our clothes and become barbarians. Zhuge Liang also often compared himself to Guan Zhong, which shows his respect and recognition for Guan Zhong.

The rise and fall of China over the past five thousand years all stemmed from this. Guan Zhong helped Duke Huan of Qi achieve his hegemony. It has served as an eternal model for China's wise kings to govern the country.

In the past, I only knew some stories or idioms, but I didn't know why. After listening to this book, I will learn more and benefit a lot. I am in awe of the author's professionalism. If there are more dedicated scholars, more people will benefit and history will be more true!
This book provides future generations with the wisdom of their ancestors, and also opens the door for future generations to be benevolent, righteous, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthy. We also saw that the protagonist worked hard for the welfare of the people, and used his wisdom throughout his life to make the people rich and the country strong, and to respect the king and fight against the barbarians for unification. Likewise, a good minister must meet a wise master.

The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period seem so far away from us that we no longer understand the stories and historical figures that happened during that period. Guan Zhong went from being a commoner to becoming the prime minister of the court. He reformed the official administration, rectified the economy, and assisted Duke Huan of Qi to achieve hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period. His government and conduct were an example for future generations of virtuous ministers, so people at that time often felt proud to compare themselves to Guan Zhong. The author of this book has a solid foundation in history and literature, so literary historical writing is a major feature of it, and he has written many books on this topic.

Guan Zhong,
Pioneer of Legalism,
Teacher of saints,
China's first prime minister! ! !
What we are reading is a historical novel. Although it is history, it is a general understanding, not research, so it must be expressed in vernacular, and the effect may be better. Of course this is what I think
