Story:
In the late Qin Dynasty, Han Xin, feeling undervalued by Xiang Yu, decided to join Liu Bang. Initially, he did not receive significant recognition there either. However, through the recommendation of Teng Gong to Xiao He, Xiao He recognized Han Xin as an invaluable talent and recommended him to Liu Bang.
Liu Bang was initially dismissive and perfunctory. Han Xin, disheartened, left without saying goodbye. Xiao He, realizing the immense loss, chased after Han Xin under the moonlight and brought him back.
He then earnestly told Liu Bang that Han Xin was a talent 'unmatched in the world' (举世无双). Convinced by Xiao He's persistence and high praise, Liu Bang appointed Han Xin as a Grand General.
