Cover My Collection Book




“The Strategy of the Unparalleled Sea The emperor is also called the "Heavenly / Paradise Heavenly Power Strategy". There are also those who call "Sailing the Sea With Tricks". Basically, this strategy is used to conceal our original intentions and intentions by using apparent diversions and bait. The feed will continue to be used until our original goal is achieved. When moving in darkness and shadows, using hidden places, or hiding behind the scenes will only attract suspicions. To weaken the enemy's defenses you have to act in the open to hide your hidden intentions with ordinary daily activities that are not suspicious. When a person thinks he is well served, he will tend to lower his vigilance. This is often seen, and they are not suspicious.
Secrets must be kept in the open, not in secret”.






This time I will try to interpret Chapter 1 in 36 classical china stratagems. I do not mean to monopolize the perception that it is as if my most correct interpretation. But I would expect various interpretations of you to be able to enrich learning about sun tzu and its application in the real world.



In another explanation, when we see something new, we look for threats. But when we become familiar, we assume that the same level of threats continue, and so we ignore the harmless things we have seen before. In this way we adapt to various situations. This strategy can be applied to situations where you want to get close and there is no place to hide.


The key is to appear non-threatening until it's too late for them to respond.  This  duality  of  nature  is  reflected  in  how  we  think  and behave, and can be used to change the mind. If you tell someone to look up, they should think about it not to be seen there. So you can play with open and hidden actions, intimacy and surprise, regularity

with variations, and so on.





In The Case Study Of Warfares And Politics




In 643 BC, in the 17th year (Zhenguan Calendar), the Tang Dynasty Emperor's government, Emperor Tang Tai Zong was asked for help to send troops to help a small country. Emperor Tang Tai Zong decided to personally lead his 300,000 men. His loyal followers tried to prevent him from leaving, let alone the journey they were going to cross the sea, but they did not succeed. The Emperor remained at its founding. His loyal followers knew perfectly well that the Emperor was in fact fascinated and afraid of the high waves.



The big group came by the sea. When he saw the magnitude of the sea waves, the Emperor did not want to cross his heart anyway. He summoned his followers to think about how to cross the ocean, but no one was able to offer a great plan.
When the Emperor asked once more, eventually his followers reported that  there  was  an  old  but  wealthy  farmer  living  by  the  seaside intending to meet him. The old man claimed that he was able to provide food for the whole army, for their journey across the ocean.



Hearing that the Emperor was very pleased. The old man invited the Emperor to his house for a drink. Emperor Tang gladly agreed and left with his troops. After traveling for several miles, the Emperor and his troops were then taken to a large tent. Inside the tent, beautifully decorated and there are servants. And the party started there wine, food and music.



Not long after that, the Emperor and his army heard strong winds blowing and rumbling waves roared. The Emperor suspected something had happened and ordered some of his men to tear the tent. And how surprised they are. The Emperor realized that they were not  at  the  old  man's  house  but  really  in  the  middle  of  the  sea. Unknown to the Emperor, it turns out the big tent is on the ship!


And the old man is actually Xue Ren Gui in disguise and he is the creator of this strategy 'Deceiving Heaven to Cross the Sea "

In World War II, before carrying out the invasion, the Allies set up Operation  Fortitude's  biggest  fraud  operation in history.  It  was  an operation to be as if the Allies assured Nazi Germany that the landing site was a port around Pas-de-Calais, not Normandy. The Allies dropped more bombs in Pas-De-Calais than in Normandy, the Allies even spread the issue of FUSAG (First U. S. Army Group), a factional army group led by General George S. Patton. So when the allies landed in Normandy, the German divisions would not abandon its position in Pas-De-Calais for awaiting the Invasion of FUSAG, all of it was  done  to  deceive  Germany.  The  allies  did  not  stop  there,  to deceive  the  German  allies  by installing  copies  of Sherman  tanks, cannons, etc., they were all balloons mounted in the area around Dover, to assure the Allied landings in Pas-De-Calais. The Allies succeeded,  a  German  reconnaissance  aircraft  came  and photographed all the tank's replicas, so the Germans concluded that the Allies would land at Pas-De-Calais, not Normandy.



In The Case Study Of Business


Some brands of toothpaste sell a package with a toothbrush. In order for  the  sale  to  succeed,  a  toothpaste  brand  then  sells  a  cheap package of toothbrush + toothpaste with the price of toothpaste only. Buyers then flocked to buy the product. Apparently, the toothbrush on the package is made special with a head that is longer than the usual toothbrush so that the tooth paste more quickly run out. This makes the customer must re-buy the toothpaste.

Or for example we can take advantage of advertising, gossip, word of mouth, giving bonuses, discounts, buy one free one and so to boost sales. No doubt the attractive offer will lure consumers to buy. Of course, while maintaining customer trust with commitment and consistency. Without commitment, customers will run away.



Many entrepreneurs use cheap sales techniques like this to increase their sales. It seems likely to be disadvantageous, but in fact the entrepreneur only applies this technique with careful calculations.




In The Case Study Of Anecdote


The story of the Japanese people

There was once a Samurai who was bullied by a large and intelligent mouse who made the house his nest. This bothered the Samurai without end so he went to the village to buy a cat. A street vendor sells a cat that he thinks will catch the mouse and indeed the cat looks slim and fit. But the mouse was even faster than the cat and after a week without success the Si Samurai returned his cat. This time the salesman grabbed a big and gray cat and made sure that no mice could escape the milling. The rat knew enough to stay away from this formidable gang cat, but when the cat was asleep, the mouse ran. Half day the rat will hide, but half of him again run from that place. The

Samurai takes the cat back to the salesman who shakes his head in despair telling him he has given his best cat Samurai and there is nothing else he can do. Return home with his money, The Samurai happened to a monk and asked his advice. After hearing the story of Si Samurai, the monk offered the cat service who lived in the temple. The cat was old and fat and he barely noticed as he was carried away by the dubious Samurai. For two weeks the cat was nothing more than sleeping all day and night. The Samurai wanted to return the cat to the temple but the monk insisted that he hold it for a while longer convincing him that the days of the rat were almost over. The rat became accustomed to the lazy old cat's presence and soon got to his old tricks, sometimes, boldly dancing around the old cat while he slept. Then one day, when the rat ran his business without caring about it, he passed the cat who quickly grabbed his leg and put the rat to the floor. The rat died instantly.




How Do We Use This Strategy For Our Lives?



No difference with our way to manage finances or increase income. We can offer our skills and abilities to help our neighbors, friends or others in need, such as repairing computers, air conditioning, teaching their children certain lessons, giving them a ride, loaning motorbikes or cars, or even delivering them for a need and so on, which in the end others are enamored with us. If other people already have an interest in us then it will open the path of sustenance for us. And to bind it we must keep our commitment and trust as well as possible.

Although the title "Capturing the Sky to Pass through the Ocean" does not mean that we are swallowing the strategy to deceive others, we can use it for positive things in life. After all good or bad intentions will eventually return to us.



Our financial condition may be less good, our salary is mediocre, but we have the skill, have the energy, make time to help friends in the workshop for example, or help clean the yard, help keep the children and so forth. If we do well and sincerely, in time there will be results. Maybe friends will give you additional tips (bonus), or maybe they have acquaintances who can help us, and so on. Obviously do not give up in life, do your part with pleasure. Do it with art, do it with strategy.
