Origin Story
话说唐朝时期，有一位名叫李白的诗人，他醉心于诗歌创作，对其它事情常常置之不问。有一天，他听说好友高适中了进士，但他并没有前去道贺，依然在自己的书房里吟诗作赋。几天后，他才听说高适因为得罪权贵而被贬官，李白依然置之不问，继续着自己的创作。许多人批评李白不够仗义，可是李白却毫不在意。在他看来，诗歌创作才是他生命中最重要的事情，其它的一切都显得微不足道。
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a poet named Li Bai who was devoted to his poetry and often ignored other things. One day, he heard that his friend Gao Shi had passed the imperial examination, but he didn't go to congratulate him, continuing to write his poems in his study. After a few days, he heard that Gao Shi was demoted for offending the powerful, but Li Bai still ignored it and continued his work. Many people criticised Li Bai for being unsupportive of his friends, but Li Bai didn't care. In his view, only the creation of poetry was the most important thing in his life; everything else was insignificant.
