Origin Story

话说三国时期,诸葛亮运筹帷幄,决胜千里。他常年身着素衣,头戴纶巾,手持羽扇,气度不凡,从容自若。一次,蜀军与魏军在赤壁大战,敌军来势汹汹,战况十分激烈。诸葛亮却始终镇定自若,羽扇纶巾,指挥若定,最终以少胜多,大获全胜,取得了赤壁之战的伟大胜利。从此,“羽扇纶巾”就成为了诸葛亮形象的代名词,也用来形容人处事不慌不忙,态度从容镇定。

During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang was a master strategist, winning battles from afar. He usually wore simple clothes, a head巾, and carried a feather fan, exhibiting an extraordinary demeanor and calm composure. Once, in the great battle of Red Cliffs, the Shu army faced the formidable Wei army. The battle was fierce, but Zhuge Liang remained calm and collected, his feather fan and head巾 adding to his commanding presence. Ultimately, he led the Shu army to victory against overwhelming odds, achieving a stunning victory at Red Cliffs. Since then, “feather fan and head巾” has become synonymous with Zhuge Liang, used to describe someone who acts calmly and remains composed under pressure.
