In ancient times, a farmer caught a wild monkey on the mountain. He hoped that the wild monkey could help him look after the house, so he locked the monkey at the door. One day, the farmer found some chickens stolen by the fox, so he went to teach the monkey a lesson. But the monkey grinned gloomily. The farmer was angry, but he didn't know what to do.
The second time I found that the chicken was stolen, the farmer hit the monkey, but it still didn't help. Going out for the third time, I found that the chicken was still being eaten by the fox, and I saw that there were not many chickens left. The farmer thought that if all the chickens were stolen by foxes, he might as well kill them himself.
On this day, he killed the chicken at the door before going out. As a result, the monkey saw the farmer cut the chicken's throat with a knife and quickly covered his eyes with his hand. The farmer understood: the monkey is not afraid of how to fight. He seems afraid to watch me kill a chicken. Yes, that's it! Therefore, every time farmers go out, they always show monkeys how to kill chickens. Later, the monkey did not dare to be presumptuous and honestly looked after the house for him.
Take the moral of killing chickens as an example:
1. Punish several people to deter others. By punishing specific individuals, it can prevent others from acting rashly or making the same mistakes. This strategy is to use people's fear to show the seriousness of punishment to curb bad behavior or illegal behavior.
2. Establish authority and prestige. When leaders or managers need to establish their own authority and prestige, they can adopt the method of "setting an example". By punishing a person, showing his position and determination, and at the same time sending a message to others, he has enough power and ability to maintain order and enforce laws and regulations.
3. The role of warning and education. By punishing a specific example, it can convey a function of warning and educating others. This kind of punishment can remind others to pay attention to their own behavior, realize the seriousness of the problem, and realize that if they violate the regulations or moral standards, they may face similar punishment.
