Why does China culture emphasize modesty and low-key?
Confucius said: In a threesome, there must be a teacher. We have been reciting the Analects of Confucius since childhood, and this famous saying comes from the Analects. The education we received since childhood is to make us low-key and modest, because there are people outside, and there are days behind. The three people generally refer to people around us in order to tell people around us that they can be our teachers. You can always learn something from their talents or virtues, because there is no end to learning. Everyone becomes smart and powerful through continuous learning.

There is an idiom in China called "Don't be ashamed to ask questions", which also teaches us that knowledge is infinite. We should learn from learned people in a low-key and humble way to enrich ourselves.

As we all know, China is a country of etiquette, and it is modest and polite to be a person or to do things. A great man should be modest and forbearing in everything he does. You didn't realize that he has such a powerful ability until he made a blockbuster. Like those arrogant people, it doesn't end well. We know that Nian Gengyao, a historical figure, won numerous battles for the emperor, but he couldn't end well because of his arrogance and modesty.

Chinese etiquette civilization has a long history, and modesty is very important. In ancient times, most of the civilian military commanders put away their abilities, kept a low profile and did things with high profile. China is a vast country with a history of 5,000 years. Modesty is the most important virtue. It is in this way that China keeps learning and eventually becomes a world power. Therefore, China has been emphasizing modesty and low-key thoughts since ancient times.
