Origin Story
话说唐朝时期，有一个名叫李白的诗人，他写过一首非常有名的诗，叫做《将进酒》。李白是盛唐时期最杰出的诗人之一，他的诗歌豪放飘逸，想象奇特，充满浪漫主义色彩。他一生放荡不羁，追求自由洒脱的生活，但他却在政治上屡遭挫折，最终郁郁而终。尽管他仕途坎坷，但他对自己的诗歌创作充满信心，始终坚持自己的理想和信念，这就像一个铁桶江山，稳固而不可动摇。
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a famous poet named Li Bai, who wrote a very famous poem called "Jiang Jin Jiu". Li Bai was one of the most outstanding poets of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. His poems were unrestrained and elegant, full of imagination and romantic elements. He lived an unconventional life, pursuing freedom and ease, but he repeatedly suffered setbacks in his political career and eventually died an unhappy end. Although he struggled with difficulties in his career, he was full of confidence in his poetic work and always adhered to his ideals and beliefs - as unshakeable as an impregnable fortress.
