Example:

Ouyang Xiu was a famous writer and politician in the Northern Song Dynasty. When he was an officer in Yingzhou, he had a young man named Lu Gongzhu under his command. Once, Ouyang Xiu's good friend Fan Zhongyan passed by and visited his home. Ouyang Xiu invited Lu Gongzhu to entertain the guests. During the dinner, Fan Zhongyan said to Lu Gongzhu: "It's great that you can work beside Ouyang Xiu. You should ask him more about composition and poetry skills." After that, under Ouyang Xiu's words and deeds, Lu Gongzhu's writing skills improved. Gotta go fast.

Before liberation, a young writer named Mu Shiying wrote a novel "North and South Pole" that exposed the darkness of the old society, which caused a sensation in the literary world. But when he arrived at Shili Foreign Market, he was influenced by that decadent lifestyle and actually started to praise a life of extravagance and extravagance. This can be said to be the best interpretation of "the person who is close to the ink is black".

Those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. This sentence comes from "Prince Shaofu's Proverbs", which describes the influence of the environment on people. It can also describe the friendliness of friendship.

The one that relies on cinnabar becomes red, and the one that relies on ink becomes black. It is a metaphor that getting close to good people can make people become good, and getting close to bad people can make people bad. It means that the objective environment has a great influence on people.

Describe the impact of the environment on people. Zhu and Chi: can be interpreted as red things; while Mo and Hei means black things. Red is opposite to black. Red can be understood as red is justice and good. Black is relatively evil or bad. Regardless of whether you follow a person from either side, you will be infected by their character. In other words, learn from good people and learn from bad people.

Another way of saying Chi is to describe soldiers (generals and soldiers) in ancient times. For example, if you stay with them, you will have a red heart like them and become a soldier who sheds your life and blood for the country; and if you follow those Mohists (i.e. scholars), you will naturally be influenced by them. Influenced by bookishness, he became a scholar.
