Once again, for all CHP listeners, I'm featuring the latest episode of the Chinese Sayings Podcast. It's said that we human beings have been called social animals by nature. Some of us love other kinds of people more than others do. But no matter how enamored one might be about another culture, nation, or people, we all tend to stick with our own kind. This 4th Century BC Chinese Saying comes from "The Strategies of the Warring States." and concerns the witty and capable minister to King Wei of Qi and his son King Xuan: Chunyu Kun. King Xuan needed to round up several talented souls to help him manage the Kingdom of Qi, where the stunning and beautiful Shandong Peninsula is located. Answering the king's call, Chunyu Kun gathered a whole bunch of worthy and talented men and schooled the king about how easy it was to find them. This is the story behind W\xf9 Y\u01d0 L\xe8i J\xf9 \u7269\u4ee5\u7c7b\u805a. I also mentioned another chengyu that goes along with this episode: y\u012bm\xedng j\u012bngr\xe9n \u4e00\u9e23\u60ca\u4eba. You get that one too, at no extra cost, I might add. Only two more episodes to go for this season. Like last time in Season 7, be looking for un episodio extra especial featuring our hardworking and brilliant \u9886\u5bfc of the \u6210\u8bed\u7814\u7a76\u4e2d\u5fc3 in Beijing: Emma. Looking forward to seeing some of you in Hong Kong during my few days there. My deepest gratitude for listening.\nLearn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
