成語_三人成虎 Woozle Effect
Woozle Effect
"Woozle Effect" is used to describe rumors
repeated over and over again.
It can also make
people believe it to be true.
During the Warring States Period, wars often occurred between countries
The people's lives were very hard. Therefore, in order to avoid war, they will make agreements with other countries.
Among countries, in order to
show that he will keep his
promise, the king will send his
son to the other country as
a hostage.
In this case, in order to survive the war, Wei State decided to make a mutual alliance with the State of Zhao.
Therefore, the King of Wei ordered Pang Cong to accompany his wife Zi went to Zhao State as a hostage.
He didn't know when he would come back to Zhao State. He was worried that King Wei would believed the rumors, so he decided to visit the King of Wei before setting off.
Pang Cong asked
again: "If there is a third
People also say that tigers appear on the streets.
Will the king
believe it? "
King Wei replied:
"If everyone says this, then I have to believe it. It must be true. "
Pang Cong continued: "Everyone knows that there are no tiger will suddenly appear. But when everyone says this,
It seems like it
really happened, so people have to believe it.
Sure enough, after Pang Cong left, people kept telling the King of Wei bad words about Pang Cong.
King of Wei didn't believe it at first, but because every day there were people who complained about Pang Cong, so the King of Wei gradually forgot about Pang Cong.
That’s what Pang Cong said. After the prince and Pang Cong returned home, King of Wei no longer trust him.
三人成虎
「三人成虎」是用來比喻謠言再三重複，
亦能使人信以為真。今天就讓
我們一起來聽聽三人成虎的故
事吧！
戰國時期，各國間常會發生戰
爭，百姓的生活過得十分辛
苦。因此，有的國家為了能避
免戰亂，會與其他國家約定彼
此互不侵犯。同時，各國間為
了表示自己會遵守承諾，君王
會將自己的兒子送到對方國家
做為人質。
在這種情況下，魏國為了能在戰亂中生存，決
定與趙國互訂盟約。因此，魏王命令龐蔥陪太
子前往趙國當作人質。龐蔥知道自己離開魏國
後，會有人在魏王面前說他的壞話，而這次前
往趙國也不知道何時才會回來，他擔心魏王會
聽信謠言，所以決定在出發前去拜見魏王。
龐蔥見到魏王後說道：「大王，如果有人向您
報告，大街上出現了一隻老虎，大王會相信
嗎？」魏王回答：「不會相信。」龐蔥又問：
「如果有第二個人說大街上出現了老虎，大王
會相信嗎？」魏王回答：「那我就會半信半疑
了。」
龐蔥再問道︰「如果有第三個
人也說大街上出現了老虎，大
王會相信嗎？」
魏王回答：「如果大家都這樣
說，那我就不得不相信了，肯
定是真的啊。」
龐蔥接著說：「大家都知道，大街上本來就不
會突然出現老虎。可是當大家都這樣說時，就
好像真的發生一樣，讓人不得不相信了。
我這次去趙國後，可能會有不只三個人說我的
不是，請大王千萬要明察事實，不要被謠言所
蒙蔽啊！」魏王聽完後點點頭就答應了龐蔥。
果然，在龐蔥離開後，就不斷有人向魏王說龐
蔥的壞話。魏王一開始都不相信，但由於每天
都有人來說龐蔥的不是，魏王就慢慢的忘記龐
蔥說過的話了。等到太子跟龐蔥回國後，魏王
就不再信任與重用他了。
小朋友，謠言是不是很可怕呢，下次當我們聽
到傳聞時，要學會分辨事情的真相，更不要成
為散布謠言的人喔。
