"If you sanction me, I must take revenge against you and launch corresponding sanctions, otherwise I will be weak."
This is NOT a common perception in Chinese society.
We are "Sure revenge is necessary, but the method may not be reciprocal. How to do it is left to professionals."

In the west, the way of revenge is centered on politics, not interests. No one cares whether doing so will bring greater benefits to society or cause greater harm.
In China, we're full of patience and believe that professional officials can handle it better than public sentiment.

There is a proverb in the Chinese world: If a dog bites you, it does not mean that you have to bite the dog too.

There are many ways to take revenge, you must choose the one that is most beneficial to you.

The backbone of Chinese traditional philosophy is three parts: Confucianism, Taoism and Chinese Buddhism.

There is a popular saying among Chinese people - "Study Confucianism in your youth, Taoism in your middle age, and Buddhism in your old age."

Confucianism elevates our feeling of life to the realm of morality, Taoism elevates our feeling of life to the realm of integration with heaven and earth, and Buddhism elevates our feeling of life to the realm of liberation from the afflictions of birth and death.

If you are still young, start by studying Confucianism. After all, you are not yet at the age to think about reincarnation. 😁
You must learn morality and regulate your own words and actions.
