Origin Story
西晋时期，石崇和王恺两人都非常富有，经常互相炫耀。一次，王恺得到一株珊瑚，得意地拿去给石崇看。石崇却毫不示弱，从众多珊瑚中挑选出几株更加光彩夺目的珊瑚，让王恺自叹不如。这些珊瑚红艳欲滴，在阳光下闪耀着耀眼的光芒，简直是令人目眩神迷。石崇的举动让王恺不仅输掉了这次比富，更深刻体会到石崇雄厚的财力与高雅的品味。从此之后，王恺再也不敢和石崇比阔了。
During the Western Jin Dynasty, Shi Chong and Wang Kai were both extremely wealthy and often showed off to each other. Once, Wang Kai obtained a coral and proudly showed it to Shi Chong. However, Shi Chong was not outdone and selected several even more dazzling corals from among his many, leaving Wang Kai speechless. These corals were so vividly red and shone so brightly in the sunlight that they were almost hypnotic. Shi Chong's actions not only resulted in Wang Kai losing this contest of wealth but also made him realize Shi Chong's immense financial power and refined taste. From then on, Wang Kai no longer dared to compete with Shi Chong.
