The severe punishment for petty offenses while major wrongdoings are ignored or rewarded, reflecting an ironic inversion of justice.
那个团队里，捡走一支钢笔的实习生被处分了，而私下更改核心数据、导致项目停滞的高级经理却得到了晋升机会，真是窃钩盗国
In that team, the intern who took a pen was disciplined, while the senior manager who secretly altered core data, causing the project to stall, not only went unpunished but even received a promotion. It's a classic case of punishing petty theft while grander misconduct is overlooked.
