The merit cannot cover the master
There is a saying that "the tree is a big move, and the official is a big risk". If a person is very capable and does not know how to restrain himself, at this time he will become a thorn in the heart of his boss, and if he doesn't get it right, he will be stabbed all over with blood. If things get to this point, even partners who grew up together with bare butts may not be able to escape their fate.
Employees can achieve results in their work, and the company can develop, of course, it is the result of the hard work of employees. But don't forget that you can't do anything without the jobs and working conditions provided by your leaders. Therefore, when talking about the achievements of employees and the development of enterprises, it is impossible not to emphasize the contribution and role of leaders.
If you don't know how to do this, don't know how to be restrained in front of the leader, and don't take anyone in your eyes because of a little credit, then the danger is not far from you! Admittedly, it's not your fault that you're high, but it's your fault to show off from time to time. Nian Qianyao is Yongzheng's clothed servant, born in Jinshi, the official worshiped the governor of Sichuan during the Kangxi period, and became a feudal official before the age of 30. It is said that Nian Qianyao made great contributions in supporting Yongzheng to ascend the throne. After Yongzheng ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, he was granted military power to calm the war. Nian Qianyao strategized on the battlefield, was invincible, leveled Tibet and Qinghai, and made great achievements. When the class teacher returned to the court, Yongzheng personally greeted him and crowned him as the general of Fuyuan, the Taibao, and the first-class duke.
However, although Nian Qianyao had the merit of pacifying the northwest, his qualifications were not enough to be on an equal footing with the kings who commanded the army in the early Qing Dynasty. But Nian Qianyao was so proud that he couldn't help but get carried away. According to the rules, Nian Qianyao's correspondence with the governors of the provinces should be in the form of a message to show equality. But in Nian Qianyao's eyes, the governors of the provinces have become his subordinates, and he has always used edicts in his correspondence with the generals and governors.
When Nian Qianyao entered Beijing to meet Yongzheng, the officials below the prince had to kneel to greet him, and Nian Qianyao passed by in a sedan chair without squinting. The prince dismounted and greeted Nian Qianyao, who was extremely arrogant, and only nodded slightly.
Nian Qianyao used "giving" when giving things to others, and the "recipient" must bow to the north to thank him; Nian Qianyao used "introduction" when meeting with provincial officials; When you eat by yourself, it is called "dining", and when you invite someone to eat, it is called "banquet", which is already among the great rebellions in the feudal dynasty where the etiquette is very strict.
Even in front of Yongzheng, Nian Qianyao was also crazy. Once, Nian Qianyao compiled a book of "Lu Yigong's Recital", and after presenting Yongzheng, Yongzheng wanted to write a preface for it. But before Yongzheng finished writing, Nian Qianyao drafted one by himself and asked Yongzheng for approval. Obviously, this has greatly exceeded the limit of the monarch and the minister, and the year of "sitting on the throne without courtesy" is the way to take trouble.
In the third year of Yongzheng, Yongzheng cut the official and seized the title, convicted him of 92 major crimes, and committed suicide. Nian Qianyao's death was self-inflicted, he relied on his high merits, got carried away, did not abide by the way of the ministers, did not know the restrictions, and finally perished.
Throughout the ages, most leaders have tabooed their subordinates to cover up their achievements, so they want to "get rid of" them as soon as possible. However, in real life, there are still some people who don't know how to advance or retreat, and once they have achieved some results, they get carried away, but they don't know how many pairs of eyes are looking at them, ready to pull him into the water at any time. I believe you, you must not want to be the next Nian Qianyao, right? So, what do we do?
First, give credit to his boss One day, Han Xin talked to Liu Bang about leading troops to fight, and he said proudly: "Your Majesty, you can't lead more than 100,000 troops, and I lead more troops, the better." This is of course the truth, but "the speaker has no intention, and the listener has a heart", Liu Bang's face was pulled down at that time. Han Xin was so smart that he immediately realized his gaffe, so he hurriedly added: "Your Majesty is not good at leading troops, but good at leading generals", wanting to warm Liu Bang's heart. Although Liu Bang snorted at the time and rounded the scene. However, will he really not take it to heart? If you forget your boss and take all the credit for yourself, it is easy to arouse the jealousy of your boss, which is very dangerous. A smart person must know how to emphasize the role of the boss and give credit to the boss quietly, which is a safe way to protect oneself.
Second, when he saw that it was good, he accepted Fan Li to assist Goujian, the king of Yue, to revitalize the Yue country, and finally made Goujian destroy the Wu country, and he was ashamed. Subsequently, Gou Jian added Fan Li as a general, but Fan Li knew that Gou Jian and his people could only share hardships, but not wealth and prosperity, so he wrote a rhetorical book, abandoned the official and left, traveled by boat, and never returned.
It is said that Fan Li once wrote a letter to his friend Wen Chong in the State of Qi, in which he said: "The birds are exhausted, and the good bow is hidden; The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook. The king of Yue is a long-necked bird with a beak, and he can only share hardships and hardships, not enjoy them together, so why don't you go? "It means: When the birds are shot, the bow and crossbow will be collected; When the cunning rabbit is finished, the hound is cooked. The face of the king of Guanyue, with a long neck and a pointed mouth, the city is very deep, and he is scheming, so he can only share the hardships with him, but he cannot enjoy the pleasures with him. Why don't you leave quickly? After Wen Chong was convinced, he felt that what Fan Li said was very true, so he pretended to be sick and did not enter the court, but he was not spared. Relatively speaking, Fan Li was much smarter, he expected this early, and retreated bravely from the rapids to save his life. Later, he became a huge fortune in business three times, scattered his family wealth, and was respected by the world as the originator of Confucian businessmen. Although Fan Li's choice is a little helpless, but he saved his life, compared to those who have merit but do not know how to avoid, he is a hero, it can be said that he left the world a wise smile.
We should do the same in our lives, and we must not be greedy for merit and profit, and we should not know how to advance or retreat. You have to remember that your light can never overshadow your boss, and a person with a mind should know how to forget the credit, retreat bravely, and accept it when you see it.
