Review: Sports League Profit and Market Sizes
重新評估市場選擇策略： 本文指出，聯盟的整體利潤最大化並不總是依賴於選擇最大市場，小市場的加入能帶來更高收益的潛在可能性。挑戰競爭平衡假設： 過往文獻認為，競爭平衡對消費者需求至關重要，但本研究表明，競爭不平衡對收入的影響可能較小，甚至在某些情況下有助於提高利潤。擴展理論模型： 通過結合市場規模的異質性與投資水平，建立了新的經濟模型，量化了不同條件下聯盟利潤的變化。
作者: Jason Winfree, Connor Allen, Stefan Szymanski出版資訊: International Journal of Sport Finance, Volume 19, Number 1, Pages 25–38, 2024. DOI: 10.32731/IJSF/191.022024.02
摘要
本文探討了體育聯盟在選擇市場規模時的經濟效益，並挑戰了「聯盟應將球隊安置於最大市場」的傳統觀點。基於經濟模型，研究發現市場規模的異質性可能增加聯盟總收益，儘管這可能導致競爭不均衡。小市場球隊的存在能降低人才競爭成本，並可能提高整體聯盟利潤。相對於大市場球隊的優勢，小市場的加入在特定條件下反而能對聯盟有利。
主要貢獻
重新評估市場選擇策略:本文指出，聯盟的整體利潤最大化並不總是依賴於選擇最大市場，小市場能帶來更高收益的潛在可能性。
挑戰競爭平衡假設:過往文獻認為，競爭平衡對消費者需求至關重要，但本研究表明，競爭不平衡對收入的影響可能較小，甚至在某些情況下有助於提高利潤。
擴展理論模型:通過結合市場規模的異質性與投資水平，建立了新的經濟模型，量化了不同條件下聯盟利潤的變化。
研究方法
經濟模型設計:
應用雙隊比賽模型，基於競爭成功函數（CSF），模擬球隊投資如何影響勝率與收益。
假設市場規模（σ）影響球隊的收入與投資決策。
數學分析:
採用反向歸納法分析球隊的最佳投資策略。
模擬不同市場規模下聯盟總利潤的變化，並繪製總利潤與市場規模的關係曲線。
實證數據參考:
使用美國職業聯盟（MLB、NBA、NFL）的市場人口數據進行對比分析，以評估模型結論的現實適用性。
結果與建議
理論結果:聯盟總利潤在市場規模適度不平衡的情況下最大化，這主要是由於降低了人才競爭成本。小市場球隊的存在限制了大市場球隊的投資需求，從而減少了整體聯盟的支出。
實踐洞察:
聯盟在進行球隊擴展或遷移時，不應僅考慮最大市場，而應關注市場規模的多樣性及其對利潤的潛在影響。
需警惕過度競爭平衡對收益的可能負面影響。
未來研究方向:
深入探討市場規模對球隊投資與聯盟收益的非線性影響。
實證測試模型假設，特別是小市場對聯盟長期經濟效益的影響。
結論本研究為體育聯盟的市場選擇提供了新的視角，強調市場規模異質性對利潤最大化的重要性。未來研究應進一步實證化模型，並探討如何最佳化市場分配策略以提升聯盟的經濟績效。

摘要
本文探討了體育聯盟在選擇市場規模時，市場規模的異質性如何影響聯盟的經濟效益，並挑戰了「聯盟應將球隊安置於最大市場」的傳統觀點。 過去的文獻通常假設聯盟會偏好將球隊置於最大的市場。 然而，基於經濟模型分析，研究發現市場規模的異質性（即大小市場混合）實際上可能增加聯盟總收益，儘管這可能導致競爭不均衡。 小市場球隊的存在可以降低人才競爭的成本，並且在特定條件下可能提高整體聯盟的利潤。 簡而言之，相對於大市場球隊的優勢，小市場球隊的加入在特定條件下反而能對聯盟有利。

Re-evaluation of market selection strategies: This article points out that maximizing overall league profit does not always depend on choosing the largest market, and the addition of small markets can potentially bring higher revenue.Challenge the competitive balance hypothesis: Previous literature believes that competitive balance is crucial to consumer demand, but this study shows that the impact of competitive imbalance on revenue may be small, and even in some cases, it helps to increase profits.Expansion of the theoretical model: By combining market size heterogeneity and investment levels, a new economic model is established to quantify the changes in league profit under different conditions.

Sports League Profit and Market Sizes Review
Authors: Jason Winfree, Connor Allen, Stefan Szymanski
Publication Information: International Journal of Sport Finance, Volume 19, Number 1, Pages 25–38, 2024. DOI: 10.32731/IJSF/191.022024.02
Abstract
This article explores how the heterogeneity of market size affects the economic benefits of sports leagues when selecting market sizes, and challenges the traditional view that "leagues should place teams in the largest markets". Previous literature often assumes that leagues prefer to place teams in the largest markets. However, based on economic model analysis, the study finds that market size heterogeneity (i.e., a mix of large and small markets) may actually increase total league revenue, although this may lead to competitive imbalance. The existence of small-market teams can reduce the cost of talent competition and may improve overall league profits under certain conditions. In short, compared to the advantages of large-market teams, the addition of small-market teams can actually be beneficial to the league under certain conditions.
Main ContributionsResearch Methods
Apply a two-team game model based on the contest success function (CSF) to simulate how team investment affects winning percentage and revenue.Assume that market size (σ) affects the revenue and investment decisions of the team.
1. Economic model design:2. Mathematical analysis:
Use backward induction to analyze the optimal investment strategy of the team.Simulate the changes in total league profit under different market sizes, and draw the relationship curve between total profit and market size.3. Empirical data reference:
Use market population data from American professional leagues (MLB, NBA, NFL) for comparative analysis to evaluate the practical applicability of the model conclusions.Results and Recommendations
Theoretical results: Total league profit is maximized when the market size is moderately imbalanced, which is mainly due to the reduced cost of talent competition. The existence of small-market teams limits the investment needs of large-market teams, thereby reducing the overall expenditure of the league.Practical insights:When expanding or relocating teams, leagues should not only consider the largest market, but should also pay attention to the diversity of market sizes and their potential impact on profits.Be wary of the possible negative impact of excessive competitive balance on revenue.Future research directions:
In-depth exploration of the nonlinear impact of market size on team investment and league revenue.Empirical testing of model assumptions, especially the impact of small markets on the long-term economic benefits of the league.Conclusion
This study provides a new perspective on market selection for sports leagues, emphasizing the importance of market size heterogeneity for profit maximization. Future research should further empirically validate the model and explore how to optimize market allocation strategies to enhance the economic performance of the league.

TOWO 文具董事長李聖文訪談紀要
出身金門，白手起家: 李聖文來自金門，高中畢業後帶著僅有的三千元隻身前往台灣，從水泥工、送貨員到業務員，一路摸索，奠定了創業的基礎。勤奮努力，創立品牌: 李董早期借宿親戚家，培養了尊重與感恩的態度，並將其融入創業理念。23 歲創立巨煬文具，以 "KMB" (金門囝仔) 鋼珠筆打響名號。逆境重生，放眼全球: 2005 年一場大火讓公司損失慘重，但李董並未放棄，反而將工廠遷至寧波，並藉此機會拓展海外市場，產品銷售至歐美及東南亞。創新研發，永續經營: 李董重視創新，曾與日本專家合作開發台灣首支凝膠筆，並持續投入環保文具、觸控筆等新產品研發。回饋社會，飲水思源: 李董秉持 "取之於社會，用之於社會" 的理念，長期捐贈文具給弱勢學生，並支持公益義賣活動。展望未來，多元發展: 未來將整合旗下品牌，成立東文集團，並跨足房地產、家電、線上文具平台等領域，持續追求成長與創新。
主題： 從金門少年到文具巨擘，李聖文董事長分享創業路上的挑戰與成就。
主要内容：精選引言：
"我那時候住人家家裡，什麼碗筷都要自己洗，人家的東西都不能碰，養成一個很好的紀律。""我發現很多供應商的東西都一模一樣，沒有創新，所以我就想，我自己來做品牌。""那時候的挫折，讓我把工廠搬到寧波，也因此讓我的事業版圖擴展到全球。""我認為創新是所有產業的命脈，一定要不斷學習和改進。""取之於社會，用之於社會，是我一直以來秉持的理念。""年輕人要勇敢追夢，但也要腳踏實地，並且要懂得回饋社會，成功才更有意義。"結論： 李聖文董事長的故事充滿了勵志與啟發，展現了台灣企業家堅韌不拔、勇於創新的精神。他的成功不僅來自於勤奮與智慧，更源於回饋社會的善心，值得所有創業者借鏡學習。
"Back then, living in someone else's house taught me discipline—I washed my own dishes and never touched anything that wasn’t mine.""I realized many suppliers offered identical products without innovation, so I thought, why not create my own brand?""The setbacks at that time led me to move the factory to Ningbo, which ultimately helped expand my business globally.""Innovation is the lifeblood of all industries; we must keep learning and improving.""Taking from society and giving back to society has always been my guiding principle.""Young people should dream big, but stay grounded. Give back to society—success is more meaningful when shared."

World No. 1 table tennis player Fan Zhendong’s decision to withdraw from the world rankings has sent shockwaves through the sports world, sparking in-depth discussions about athlete rights, career planning, and competition regulations.
Key Points and Facts:
Pressure from New Rules:
The World Table Tennis (WTT) organization implemented new regulations in 2025, requiring the top 100 players to submit tournament schedules six months in advance and mandating participation in designated events. Fan Zhendong criticized the new rules for their inflexibility, short notice, and lack of communication. He stated:
"I only received official notice last week, which demanded strict adherence to the new rules, and I was required to sign the documents immediately. Currently, I cannot make a clear plan for future competitions. To avoid violating the rules and out of respect for them, I chose to withdraw from the rankings."
Health and Long-Term Planning:
Frequent competitions and intensive training pose immense pressure on athletes’ physical and mental well-being. Fan’s withdrawal highlights the importance of prioritizing health and planning for a sustainable career. The article notes:
"In recent years, the global sports community has frequently discussed the pressure and injuries athletes face due to over-scheduling."
Withdrawal Does Not Mean Departure:
Fan emphasized that withdrawing from the rankings does not equate to abandoning table tennis. He remains committed to supporting and promoting the sport through other means. The article states:
"His every match and action has already contributed immense value to the global table tennis community."
Impact on WTT:
Fan’s withdrawal may prompt WTT to reassess its new rules and strike a better balance between institutional requirements and athlete needs. WTT acknowledged the incident in a statement, highlighting plans to increase prize money and resources to ensure fairness, demonstrating its attention to the issue.
A Role Model:
Fan’s decision showcases the courage and responsibility of an athlete when facing pressure and challenges. The article concludes:
"His actions remind us that a truly great athlete not only shines on the court but also upholds their values and choices in critical moments."
Conclusion:
Fan Zhendong’s withdrawal is not just a personal decision but a reflection of the challenges competitive sports face today. Balancing competition rules, athlete rights, and health is a pressing issue that requires collective effort. Fan’s bold choice has sparked reflection within the sports community and set an example of advocacy for athletes.

詩與遠方：寒川的詩與情
在新加坡這片融合多元文化的土地上，有一位以詩為筆、以情為墨的旅星詩人——寒川（本名呂紀葆）。他的一生，如詩般交織著鄉愁、文學與熱忱；他的筆下，既有對故土金門的濃烈依戀，也有對東南亞華文文學的執著推動。作為東南亞華文文壇的代表人物之一，他的故事，是關於文學、文化與生命的交響曲。
故鄉的詩意：從金門到新加坡
「我手寫我心，我手寫我口。」寒川在專訪中，用這句話描述了他的創作信念。出生於金門的他，五歲時隨母親移居新加坡，從此在這座花園城市成長與深耕。然而，金門的鄉土氣息始終縈繞在他的心頭，成為他文學創作中不可或缺的元素。
「金門對我而言，是一座深深刻印在靈魂裡的島嶼，無論身在何方，記憶總會帶我回到那片土地。」寒川在談及詩作時特別提到。從《童年·金門》到《古厝》，他的作品充滿對故鄉的追憶與情感寄託。他說，離鄉與還鄉，是他詩中反覆咀嚼的意象。「那不只是空間上的距離，更是一種情感的往返。」
文學評論家張國治曾評價：「寒川的詩是一部關於金門與南洋的交響詩，他以詩記錄歷史，也用詩歌連結中華文化的根脈。」
文學推廣者：印華文學的燈塔
寒川的文學足跡不僅停留在詩歌。他的妻子是一位印尼華人，這段跨國婚姻讓寒川深刻了解印尼華人的處境，尤其是在1970至1990年代，印尼華文教育和文學受到壓制的年代裡。面對挑戰，他毅然成為橋梁，不畏艱險，攜帶上千本華文書刊進入印尼，供當地華文作家使用。
「當時的情況相當困難，華文書籍是禁忌，帶進去需要極大的勇氣。」寒川回憶起這段經歷，語氣中透著堅定。這些努力不僅讓印尼華文文學得以保存，也成就了他在印華文壇的傳奇地位。
「我不想讓華文文學在任何地方消失。」他說道。
文學組織與文化交流：南洋華文文學的引路人
除了個人的創作，寒川還積極參與文學組織，推動區域文學合作。他曾是新加坡文藝協會的重要成員，多次擔任總務和財政等職，並主編多期《新加坡文藝》。此外，他也曾任錫山文藝中心主席（2012-2016），並長期擔任錫山文藝半年刊編務顧問。他的努力不僅提升了新加坡華文文學的地位，也成為區域文化交流的關鍵推動者。
近年來，寒川義務擔任印尼《國際日報-東盟文藝》和《印華日報-東盟園地》的副刊主編，策劃每週一期的華文文友作品專欄，涵蓋新加坡、馬來西亞、泰國、越南等東盟國家，為東南亞華文文學留下珍貴的歷史篇章。
「東南亞是一片文化的沃土，需要我們去共同耕耘，讓華文文學在這裡扎根成長。」寒川的語氣中透露出使命感。
榮譽與新作：文壇的持續迴響
2024年，寒川榮獲印尼華文作家協會頒發的「印華文壇貢獻獎」，以表彰他多年來對印尼華文文學的推動。同年，他於6月1日推出了全新力作——《寒川序跋集》，這部作品將他多年的文學評論、序跋與創作感悟濃縮成篇，是一次對文學之路的全面回顧與致敬。
「《寒川序跋集》不僅是我多年來文學歷程的見證，也是我對文學傳承的期待。」寒川這樣形容自己的最新作品。
此外，寒川近年來還出版了詩集《高粱三題》、文集《世說寒川》以及散文集《書寫華崗》。他表示：「文學是一種傳承，也是一種對未來的期盼。」對於未來，他希望能透過更多作品，為後人留下思考與感動的空間。
詩人的使命
寒川，這位跨越時空的詩人，以他無私的奉獻和深刻的創作，書寫了屬於東南亞華文文學的輝煌篇章。他的詩，飽含濃烈的情感與深邃的思想；他的人生，如詩般動人，也如詩般永恆。
「無論身處何地，詩人都應該成為人類情感的代言人。」寒川如是說。
在他的故事裡，我們看到的不僅是個人的文學追求，更是一份對文化的承諾，對未來的希望。這位行旅者，以詩為路，走過故鄉與異鄉，將生命化作最動人的詩篇。
Poetry and Beyond: The Journey of Han Chuan ( 寒川 )
In Singapore, a land of diverse cultures and vibrant creativity, there lives a poet who writes with his pen dipped in emotions—Han Chuan (birth name: Loo Kee Pow). His life is a symphony interwoven with nostalgia, literature, and passion. His work reflects a deep longing for his native Kinmen while embodying an unwavering dedication to the promotion of Chinese literature in Southeast Asia. As a representative figure of the Chinese literary community in the region, his story is a harmonious blend of literature, culture, and life.
The Poetic Essence of Home: From Kinmen to Singapore
"I write my heart, I write my words." This is how Han Chuan describes his creative philosophy in this interview. Born in Kinmen, he moved to Singapore with his mother at the age of five, growing up and building his life in the Garden City. Yet, the essence of Kinmen has never left his heart, becoming an indelible part of his literary work.
"Kinmen is deeply etched in my soul. No matter where I am, my memories always take me back to that land," Han Chuan remarks. From Childhood in Kinmen to The Old House, his works are imbued with a profound sense of nostalgia and emotional connection to his homeland. He notes that separation and return are recurring themes in his poetry, representing not just physical distances but also emotional journeys.
Literary critic Zhang Guozhi once commented, "Han Chuan's poetry is a symphony of Kinmen and Nanyang. Through his poems, he records history and connects with the roots of Chinese culture."
A Literary Promoter: A Beacon for Indonesian Chinese Literature
Han Chuan’s literary journey is not confined to poetry alone. His wife, an Indonesian Chinese, exposed him to the challenges faced by the Chinese community in Indonesia, particularly during the suppression of Chinese education and literature from the 1970s to the 1990s. Braving the odds, he became a bridge, smuggling thousands of Chinese books into Indonesia to support local writers.
"The situation was extremely difficult at the time. Chinese books were taboo, and bringing them in required immense courage," Han Chuan recalls with determination. His efforts not only preserved Chinese literature in Indonesia but also earned him a legendary status in the Indonesian Chinese literary community.
"I refuse to let Chinese literature disappear anywhere," he asserts.
Building Bridges: A Leader in Southeast Asian Chinese Literature
Beyond his personal creations, Han Chuan actively participates in literary organizations, fostering regional literary collaborations. As a key member of the Singapore Literature Society, he held positions such as treasurer and editor of multiple issues of Singapore Literature. Furthermore, he served as the Chairman of the Xishan Literary Arts Center (2012–2016) and was a long-term editorial consultant for the Xishan Biannual Literary Journal. His efforts have elevated the standing of Chinese literature in Singapore and established vital cultural connections across the region.
In recent years, Han Chuan has taken on voluntary roles as the editor of the ASEAN Literary supplement in Indonesia’s International Daily and the ASEAN Forum section of the Indonesian Chinese Daily. He curated weekly columns featuring works by Chinese writers across ASEAN countries, including Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, leaving a lasting legacy for Southeast Asian Chinese literature.
"Southeast Asia is fertile ground for culture. We need to cultivate it together so that Chinese literature can take root and thrive here," Han Chuan emphasizes, his tone filled with a sense of mission.
Awards and Recent Works: The Continuing Impact
In 2024, Han Chuan was honored with the "Indonesian Chinese Literary Contribution Award" by the Indonesian Chinese Writers Association, recognizing his enduring dedication to the development of Chinese literature in Indonesia. That same year, on June 1st, he released his latest masterpiece, Han Chuan’s Collected Prefaces and Postscripts, a compilation of his literary critiques, prefaces, and reflections—a comprehensive review of his literary journey and a tribute to his legacy.
"Han Chuan’s Collected Prefaces and Postscripts is not only a testament to my literary journey but also a reflection of my hope for the future of literature," Han Chuan says about his latest work.
In addition, Han Chuan has recently published the poetry collection Three Pieces of Sorghum, the essay collection The World According to Han Chuan, and the prose collection Writing from Huagang. He notes, "Literature is a form of inheritance and a hope for the future." He hopes his works will leave a space for thought and inspiration for future generations.
The Poet's Mission
Han Chuan, a poet who transcends time and space, has written a luminous chapter in the history of Southeast Asian Chinese literature through his selfless dedication and profound creations. His poems brim with intense emotions and profound insights, while his life itself is as moving and eternal as poetry.
"Wherever we are, poets should always be the voice of human emotions," Han Chuan states.
Through his story, we see not just the pursuit of personal literary goals but also a commitment to culture and a hope for the future. This traveler, with poetry as his compass, has journeyed through his homeland and foreign lands, turning his life into the most touching verses.
This English version faithfully captures Han Chuan's literary achievements and his unwavering commitment to the promotion of Chinese literature, while maintaining the emotional depth of the original text.

Pete Alonso's Free Agent Market Analysis
Short-Term High-Salary Contracts: Secure a 2-3 year high-salary contract to provide flexibility for re-entering the market later.Incentive-Based Contract Design: Include performance-based incentive clauses in contracts to reduce buyer risk perception.Differentiated Positioning: Emphasize his power-hitting capabilities and align with specific team needs, such as those of the Giants or Yankees.
In the MLB free agent market, 29-year-old "Polar Bear" Pete Alonso faces a pivotal career turning point. This article analyzes Alonso's market value and potential strategies from a sports economics perspective.
1. Market Landscape and Competitive Environment
The dynamics of supply and demand in the free agent market directly impact Alonso's positioning. Recent signings, such as 33-year-old infielder Christian Walker securing a 3-year, $60 million deal with the Houston Astros, highlight the continued demand for players with balanced offensive and defensive abilities, even at an older age. However, Alonso's high strikeout rate and relatively mediocre defensive performance diminish his appeal, particularly when compared to elite first basemen.
Alonso's primary potential suitors currently include the New York Mets and the New York Yankees, but the bidding motivation from these two teams appears weak. Meanwhile, the Seattle Mariners' interest in Cleveland Guardians first baseman Josh Naylor may further undermine Alonso's utility as a bargaining chip for his agent, Scott Boras.
2. Market Value Assessment
According to MLB Trade Rumors (MLBTR), Alonso's market value is estimated at approximately $125 million over five years. However, the realization of this valuation is uncertain. The Mets' potential contract offers during the midseason or offseason are unlikely to deviate significantly from this benchmark, but the market's overall environment applies significant pressure against inflated salary expectations.
Notably, some agent teams may hope to leverage Juan Soto's high-value contract to indirectly elevate Alonso's market status. However, Soto's "star premium" does not apply to a position like first base, especially for a player with a high strikeout rate. This approach is unlikely to yield the desired outcome.
3. Insights from WAR Data Comparison
bWAR (Baseball Wins Above Replacement) is a comprehensive metric used to evaluate a player's overall contribution. A comparison between Alonso and Freddie Freeman reveals critical differences in market positioning:
Player Career bWAR (First 6 Seasons) Average bWAR Age Range Pete Alonso 19.8 3.3 26-29 Freddie Freeman 21.5 3.58 First 6 Seasons Freddie Freeman (Before Age 29) 26.2 4.36 Before Age 29 Freeman's metrics, both during his early career and at a similar age range to Alonso, demonstrate greater stability and contributions. At age 31, Freeman signed a 6-year, $162 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, setting the benchmark for first baseman salaries. In this context, Alonso's market ceiling may fall short of this standard.
4. Challenges for Agent Scott Boras
As Alonso's agent, Scott Boras is known for his aggressive negotiation strategies, often creating competition among multiple teams. However, the changing market environment limits his maneuverability. For instance, if the Baltimore Orioles, San Francisco Giants, and Toronto Blue Jays fail in their pursuit of Corbin Burnes, the Giants might reallocate their budget to target Alonso. However, such scenarios are low-probability events.
Additionally, the Cleveland Guardians' move to save $72.5 million through Naylor-related trades demonstrates a focus on cost efficiency. This trend exerts additional pressure on Alonso's bargaining leverage.
5. Strategy Adjustments and Market Prospects
In the free agent market, Alonso must account for the market's realities. He and Boras may need to adopt the following strategies:Conclusion
短期高薪合約：簽訂2-3年的高薪合約，增加未來再次進入市場的彈性。激勵條款設計：合約中包含基於表現的激勵條款，以減少買家的風險感知。差異化定位：聚焦於進攻端的長打能力，利用特定球隊（如巨人或洋基）的需求結構進行定向談判。
Alonso's market value is influenced by multiple factors, including performance metrics (particularly bWAR), age trajectory, and strikeout rate. These contribute to a cautious investment attitude among potential buyers. For Boras, finding breakthroughs in a constrained market environment will be critical. For Alonso, adapting to market realities and leveraging performance to secure the next contract is essential for realizing his long-term value.
MLB自由球員市場中，29歲的「北極熊」皮特·阿隆索 (Pete Alonso) 面臨重要的職業轉折點。本篇文章以運動經濟學的視角，剖析阿隆索的市場價值與潛在的策略選擇。
1. 市場情勢與競爭環境
自由球員市場的供需狀況直接影響阿隆索的市場定位。從近期簽約動態來看，33歲的內野手克里斯蒂安·沃克 (Christian Walker) 以3年6000萬美元加盟休士頓太空人 (Houston Astros)，顯示出市場對具備攻守全面能力、且年齡略長的選手仍保有需求。然而，阿隆索的高揮空率與相對平庸的防守表現，限制了其吸引力，特別是相較於一壘手的精英水準需求。
阿隆索目前的主要潛在買家包括紐約大都會 (New York Mets) 和紐約洋基 (New York Yankees)，但這兩支球隊的競價動力較弱。同時，西雅圖水手 (Seattle Mariners) 表現出對守護者一壘手喬許·奈洛 (Josh Naylor) 的興趣，可能削弱其作為經紀人斯科特·波拉斯 (Scott Boras) 提升價格工具的可能性。
2. 市場價值評估
根據 MLB Trade Rumors（MLBTR） 的評估，阿隆索的市場價值約為5年1.25億美元。然而，這一數字的實現前景存有不確定性。大都會在季中及季後可能提供的合約條件，預計與此評估相差不遠，但市場環境對於過高的薪資期望呈現出明顯的壓力。
值得注意的是，部分經紀團隊可能期望利用胡安·索托 (Juan Soto) 的高價合約來間接提升阿隆索的市場地位。然而，索托的「明星溢價」並不適用於數據驅動的價值衡量模式，特別是在揮空率較高的一壘手角色中，這樣的策略難以達成預期目標。
3. WAR數據對比的啟示
bWAR（Baseball Wins Above Replacement）是一個綜合性的球員價值衡量指標，用於比較球員的全能表現。將阿隆索與弗雷迪·弗里曼 (Freddie Freeman) 進行對比，可以揭示出重要的市場定位差異：
球員
生涯前六季 bWAR
年均 bWAR
年齡範圍
皮特·阿隆索 (Pete Alonso)
19.8
3.3
26-29歲
弗雷迪·弗里曼 (Freddie Freeman)
21.5
3.58
前6季
弗里曼（29歲前）
26.2
4.36
29歲前
弗里曼的數據無論是生涯早期還是在阿隆索同齡時期，都顯示出更高的穩定性與貢獻率。他31歲時以6年1.62億美元加盟洛杉磯道奇 (Los Angeles Dodgers)，創下一壘手的薪資天花板。在這一背景下，阿隆索的市場上限可能低於這一基準。
4. 經紀人波拉斯 (Scott Boras) 的策略挑戰
作為阿隆索的經紀人，波拉斯以談判策略強硬著稱，通常試圖在多支球隊間製造競爭。然而，市場環境的變化縮小了其操作空間。例如，如果巴爾的摩金鶯 (Baltimore Orioles)、舊金山巨人 (San Francisco Giants) 與多倫多藍鳥 (Toronto Blue Jays) 在爭奪科賓·伯恩斯 (Corbin Burnes) 的過程中出現結果偏差，巨人可能重新分配預算追求阿隆索，但這樣的情境屬於低機率事件。
此外，守護者 (Cleveland Guardians) 透過奈洛交易節省7250萬美元的操作，顯示出球隊對成本效率的高度重視，這對於阿隆索的議價能力形成進一步壓力。
5. 策略調整與市場前景
在自由球員市場，阿隆索需要考慮現實的市場條件。他與波拉斯可能需要採取以下策略：
結論
阿隆索的市場價值受到數據表現（特別是bWAR指標）、年齡曲線、揮空率等多重因素影響，導致需求方對其投資的保守態度。經紀人波拉斯如何在有限的市場環境中尋求突破，將成為阿隆索未來職業生涯的關鍵。對於阿隆索而言，適應市場現實並通過數據表現贏得下一份合約，是其長期價值實現的基石。

O Captain! My Captain!
船長與航程：詩中的「船長」（Captain）象徵林肯，「船」象徵美國，而「航程」則隱喻南北戰爭。詩以航程結束（戰爭勝利）、船安全靠岸（國家統一）為背景，但船長（林肯）卻不幸喪生，表現出詩人的悲痛與敬意。對比與情感：詩中將勝利的喜悅與失去領袖的悲痛形成強烈對比：人們在歡慶國家的成功之際，詩人卻因林肯之死陷入深深的哀悼。惠特曼運用了「心」、「血」、「死亡」等意象，刻畫出沉痛的情感。重複與呼喚：詩多次呼喚「O Captain! My Captain!」，既是對林肯的懷念，也是對他的尊敬。詩中還用「父親」（Father）來比喻林肯，突顯他在國家重建中的重要角色。
By Walt Whitman
O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head!
It is some dream that on the deck,
You’ve fallen cold and dead.
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
The ship is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
《O Captain! My Captain!》是一首由美國詩人沃爾特·惠特曼（Walt Whitman）於1865年創作的詩，收錄在他的詩集《草葉集》（Leaves of Grass）中。這首詩是為悼念美國第16任總統亞伯拉罕·林肯（Abraham Lincoln）而寫，林肯於南北戰爭結束後不久被刺殺。

"Does practice really make perfect?"
John spends two hours every day playing his favorite songs but never stops to check if his chord transitions are accurate.Alex, on the other hand, spends 30 minutes daily focusing solely on improving the speed of his chord transitions. He also records himself playing and reviews it to identify mistakes.
We’ve all heard the saying "Practice makes perfect," but many psychologists and successful individuals argue that the way you practice is what determines whether you actually improve or not.
Today, we’ll explore this idea in depth and share some vivid examples to help you understand how deliberate practice can take your skills to the next level!
Part 1: What Is Deliberate Practice?
Our main point is this: practice isn’t just about repetition—it’s about strategy and goals.
Psychologist Anders Ericsson, the pioneer of the deliberate practice concept, emphasized that intentional, focused practice is the secret to mastering any skill.
Example 1: Learning Guitar
Imagine two people learning to play guitar:After three months, Alex can smoothly play complex songs, while John is still struggling at the same level.
Set Clear GoalsExample: Instead of saying, "I want to run faster," a beginner runner could set a specific goal like, "I want to finish a 5K in under 25 minutes within a month."Focus on Specific SkillsExample: A swimmer aiming to improve their speed might focus on perfecting their flip turns, as they directly impact lap times.Seek Immediate FeedbackExample: A dancer can record their performances or ask an instructor for real-time corrections to refine their movements.Challenge Your Comfort ZoneExample: Language learners can practice conversations with native speakers instead of sticking to simple exercises on a language app.Rest and ReflectExample: Acclaimed writer Haruki Murakami dedicates 4 hours a day to writing and balances it with running. He says physical rest helps him sustain his creativity and focus.
Takeaway: It’s not about how much time you spend practicing—it’s about targeting your weaknesses and improving them systematically.
Part 2: Why “Practice Makes Perfect” Can Be Misleading
Many people believe that practicing more automatically leads to perfection. Here’s an example that shows why this isn’t true.
Example 2: Free Throws in Basketball
NBA players practice free throws all the time, but not everyone can shoot like Stephen Curry. What’s his secret?
Curry doesn’t just "take more shots"—he ensures every practice session mimics the pressure of a real game. He sets time limits, simulates crowd noise, and imagines high-stakes scenarios, forcing himself to stay focused under pressure.
Insight: If your practice doesn’t reflect the challenges you’ll face in real situations, it won’t help you improve where it matters most.
Part 3: The Five Elements of Deliberate Practice
How can you make your practice more effective? Let’s break down the five key principles of deliberate practice, with practical examples for each:So there you have it! Today, we explored the differences between “practice makes perfect” and deliberate practice. We also shared practical stories to inspire you to adopt a more effective approach to learning and improvement.
這篇文章探討了「熟能生巧」和「刻意練習」的差異。文章指出，並非單純的練習就能讓人變得完美，更重要的是練習的方式。1 心理學家安德斯·艾利克森提出的「刻意練習」理論強調，有目標、有策略的練習才是精進的關鍵。1
文章以學習吉他為例，說明了刻意練習的重要性。小華每天只花 30 分鐘專注練習手指換和弦的速度，並錄影檢討，結果三個月後，他的技巧突飛猛進。23 反觀小明雖然每天花兩小時彈吉他，但卻從不檢討和弦的準確性，因此進步有限。2 這個例子說明了，練習的重點不在時間長短，而在於是否聚焦問題並持續改進。3
此外，文章還以 NBA 球星史蒂芬·柯瑞為例，說明了刻意練習的另一個重要面向：練習必須針對真實情境中的挑戰。4 柯瑞在練習罰球時，會模擬比賽的壓力，例如計算時間、設定分數、想像觀眾噓聲等，藉此提升自己在高壓環境下的專注力。4
文章最後總結了刻意練習的五個要素：
設定明確目標：例如，一位想學跑步的朋友，應該設定具體的目標，例如「一個月內把 5 公里跑進 25 分鐘」。5
專注特定技能：例如，想提升游泳速度的人，可以專注練習轉身技巧。6
尋求即時回饋：例如，學習舞蹈的人可以錄影檢討，或是請老師立即糾正錯誤。6
挑戰舒適區：例如，學習語言時，應該嘗試與母語者對話。6
適當休息和反思：例如，作家村上春樹每天寫作 4 小時後會去慢跑，讓身體休息，以便獲得更多創作靈感。7
總而言之，刻意練習的關鍵在於有目標、有策略，並且針對真實情境中的挑戰進行練習。

Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between player performance and salaries in Major League Baseball (MLB) and predicts salary fairness using machine learning models. The research utilizes Python web scraping techniques to collect player performance statistics, personal details, and salary data from ESPN and Spotrac. Separate datasets for batters, starting pitchers, and relief pitchers were established. A linear regression model was applied to predict salaries and analyze the alignment between salaries and performance.
Results indicate that high-salary players (e.g., top batters and starting pitchers) are often overvalued, while seasoned players with strong performance but lower salaries are undervalued. The model achieved a moderate accuracy with R² scores ranging from 0.5 to 0.6.
Key ContributionsData Sources
Dataset Construction: Data was scraped using Python and integrated performance metrics with contract details to form comprehensive player datasets.Data Preprocessing: Included data cleaning, variable standardization, and grouping, with separate modeling for batters, starting pitchers, and relief pitchers.Salary Prediction Model: Linear regression was used for salary prediction, and the model's accuracy was evaluated using MAE and R² scores.
The data primarily came from ESPN and Spotrac, including player performance statistics, salary, and contract information.
MethodologyResults
Model Accuracy: The mean absolute error (MAE) for batters was $4.28 million, $3.66 million for starting pitchers, and $1.28 million for relief pitchers. R² scores ranged between 0.5 and 0.6.Salary Mismatch: High-salary players (e.g., some batters and starting pitchers) are often overvalued, while low-salary, high-performing players are undervalued.Conclusions and Recommendations
資料構建與爬取技術：展示了利用網頁爬蟲技術從多個數據來源建立高質量數據集的完整流程，包括球員技術指標、薪資與合約資料的整合。薪資與表現匹配分析：模型結果揭示了高薪球員的過度評價問題，並量化低薪資資深球員的價值低估。決策參考意義：本研究為球隊薪資決策提供了科學化的數據支持，特別是在合約談判與球員價值評估中具有應用潛力。
The study highlights significant structural issues in MLB salary distribution and recommends adopting data-driven methods for salary decision-making, using player performance metrics to enhance salary evaluations. Future research could improve prediction accuracy and utility by incorporating more advanced metrics and exploring other machine learning models.

摘要
本研究旨在探討美國職棒大聯盟（MLB）球員的表現與薪資之間的關係，並通過機器學習模型預測薪資是否合理。研究利用Python的網頁爬蟲技術，從ESPN與Spotrac網站收集MLB選手的技術指標、基本資料及薪資數據，並分別建立打者、先發投手與後援投手的數據集。最後，採用線性回歸模型進行薪資預測，並分析薪資與表現的匹配情況。
結果顯示，高薪球員（如頂尖打者與先發投手）可能被高估，而表現出色但薪資較低的資深球員則被低估，且模型的R²分數約為0.5-0.6，預測精度適中。
主要貢獻數據來源
數據集構建：使用Python爬取數據，結合技術指標與合約信息，構建包含完整選手數據的數據集。數據預處理：進行數據清洗、變數標準化與分組，並按照不同職位（打者、先發投手、後援投手）分別建模。薪資預測模型：採用線性回歸進行薪資預測，並評估模型準確性（使用MAE與R²分數）。
研究數據主要來自ESPN與Spotrac，包括球員技術指標、薪資與合約信息。
研究方法結果
模型準確性：打者的平均絕對誤差（MAE）為428萬美元，先發投手與後援投手分別為366萬與128萬美元，R²分數在0.5-0.6之間。薪資不匹配：高薪合約球員（如部分打者與先發投手）可能被高估，而表現出色的低薪球員則被低估。結論與建議
研究顯示MLB薪資分配中存在顯著的結構性問題，建議球隊在薪資決策中採用數據驅動的方法，結合球員技術指標進行更精準的薪資評估。此外，未來可通過引入更高階的技術指標與其他機器學習模型，進一步提升薪資預測的準確性與實用性。

乾坤大略十部
Photo by Felix Mittermeier / Unsplash
《乾坤大略》是一部專講戰略的兵書。《乾坤大略》的指導思想是專論大端，即專論「王霸大略」。覽天下之大勢，求帝王之得失成敗，闡述逐鹿問鼎、扭轉乾坤的大方略。對於此一性質，作者王餘佑明確指出：「此非談兵也，談略也。」「至於選將、練兵、安營、布陣、器械、旗鼓、間諜、嚮導、地利、賞罰、號令種種諸法，各有專書，不在此列。」
卷一、兵起先知所向
兵之未起，其說甚長，不必詳也。已起矣，貴進取，貴疾速。進取則勢張，疾速則機得，呼吸間耳，成敗判焉！此不可不知所向也。而所向又以敵之強弱為準：敵弱，或可直衝其腹；敵強，斷宜旁翦其支，此定理也。
翦其支者云何？曰：避實而擊虛也，乘勢而趨利也。避實擊虛，則敵駭不及圖，如自天而下。乘勢趨利，則我義聲先大振，而遠近向風。不觀唐太宗之趨咸陽乎？進乃勝矣。不觀黥布之歸長沙乎？退乃敗矣。微乎！其不可以一瞬失也。
霸王大略，此其首矣！故不惜備錄之。知其說者，夫固無餘蘊焉耳。若夫一時之利鈍，一事之堅瑕，又何足云！
卷二、兵進必有奇道
兵只一道耶？曰：不然。所向既明，則正道在不必言矣。然不得奇道以佐之，則不能取勝。項羽戰章邯於巨鹿，而後高祖得以乘虛入關；鐘會持姜維於劍閣，而後鄧艾得以逾險入蜀。故一陣有一陣之奇道，一國有一國之奇道，天下有天下之奇道。即有時正可為奇，奇亦可為正，而決然斷之曰：必有。
夫兵進而不識奇道者，愚主也，黯將也，名之曰「棄師」。不觀之蘇氏抉門旁戶逾垣之喻乎？其論甚精，無以易也。昔劉濞之攻大梁，田祿伯請以五萬人別循江、淮，收淮南、長沙，以會武關；岑彭攻公孫述，自江州溯都江破侯丹兵，徑拔武陽，繞出延岑軍後；曹操拒袁紹於官渡，移軍欲向延津，而潛以輕兵襲白馬，用此道也。然則，用兵慎勿曰：吾兵可以一路直至，而無煩於旁趨曲徑為也。是以人國僥倖也，戒之哉！
卷三、初起之兵遇敵以決戰為上
兵之進也，固有所過城邑不及下者矣。必以戰乎？曰：非我樂戰也，不得已而與敵遇，非戰無以卻之。蓋兵既深入，則敵必併力傾國以圖蹂蕩我，恐我聲勢之成；此而不猛戰疾鬥，一為所乘，魚散鳥驚，無可救矣！誠能出其不意，一戰以挫其銳，則敵眾喪膽，我軍氣倍，志定威立，而後可攻取以圖敵。古所謂一戰而定天下，其在斯乎！漢光武之於昆陽，唐太宗之於霍邑，可以觀也。昔沈田子以千餘人遇姚泓數萬之眾於青泥，其言曰：「兵貴用奇，不必在眾。今眾寡不敵，勢不兩立，若彼圍既固，則我無所逃，不如擊之。」遂敗泓兵。此深合機要，百慮不易之道也。
卷四、決戰之道在於出奇設伏
戰固無疑矣。然不得其道，禍更深於無戰。古有百戰之說，以吾言之，不啻百也。將從何處說起耶？吾言吾初起之戰焉耳。以烏合之市人，當追風之鐵騎，列陣廣原，堂堂正正，而與之角，不俟智者而知其無幸矣。出奇設伏又何待再計焉。孫臏之破龐涓以怯卒，韓信之破陳餘以市人，李密之破張須陀以群盜。用寡以覆眾，因弱而為強。善戰之術，固不止此；然當其事者，斷斷乎於此二者求之，則萬舉萬當；不然者，必敗。
卷五、乘勝略地莫過於招降
戰失其道，未有不敗者；戰得其道，未有不勝者。勝則破竹之勢成，迎刃之機順矣。自此招攬豪傑，部署長吏，撫輯人民，收按圖籍，頒布教章。所謂略地也，顧其策何先？曰：是有機焉！蹈之而動耳，不煩兵也。
昔武信君下趙十餘城，餘皆城守，乃引兵擊范陽，不能下。使非納蒯徹之說，以侯印授范陽令，而使之朱輪華轂以驅馳燕趙郊，則三十餘城烏能不戰而服乎？善乎！李左車之對淮陰也，曰：「將軍虜魏王、禽夏說，不終朝而破趙二十餘萬眾，威震天下，此將軍之所長也。然眾勞卒疲，其實難用。今以罷弊之卒，屯之燕堅城之下，燕若不服，齊拒境以自強，此將軍之所短也。為將軍計，莫若按甲休兵，北首燕路，而遣辨士奉咫尺之書於燕，暴其所長，燕必不敢不聽從。燕已從而東臨齊，雖有智者，不知為齊計矣。」兵固有先聲而後實者，此之謂也。至今思之，雖孫、吳復生，何以易焉！而要非戰勝之後，則斷不及此。何也？勝則人懾吾威而庇吾勢，利害迫於前而禍福怵其心，故說易行而從者順。若在我無可恃之形，而徒以虛言嬲眾，是猶夢者之墮井，無怪乎疾呼而人不聞也。此又不可不留意也。
卷六、攻取必於要害
《兵法》：「城有所不攻者。」當奉之以為主。至於要害之地，我不得此則進退不能如意，而形相制、勢相禁，於是反旗鳴鼓以試吾鋒，霍然如探喉骨而拔胸塊也。昔高帝長驅入關，已行過宛西，張良云：「今不下宛而西進，前有強敵，宛乘其後。我腹背受敵，此危道也。」乃夜回兵圍宛，克之，遂得前進無慮。
夫以深入重地之師，計必制敵之死命，而留中梗以貽後患，豈良圖哉？古恒有軍既全勝，而一城扼險，制吾首尾，幾覆大業者，皆由於謀之不早也。狄青之取昆侖，神矣！不然，屈力殫貨，鈍兵挫銳之，豈不聞之？吾知有不顧而疾趨焉耳，何必攻？
卷七、據守必審形勝
能取非難，取而能守之為難；汛守非難，守而能得其要之為難。昔項羽委敖倉而不守，棄關中而不居，而卒使漢資之以收天下，此最彰明較著者也。他如陳豨之不知據邯鄲而阻漳水，董卓之不知依舊京而守洛陽，自古及今，坐此患者，不可勝數。而獨南宋君臣守江失策，尤為可笑。試取當日諸巨公奏議觀之，了然矣。
卷八、立國在有規模
隆中數語，野夫常談。然亦曾有取其言細求之者乎？今其言曰：「荊州北據漢、沔，利盡南海，東連吳、會，西通巴、蜀，此用武之國。益州險塞，沃野千里，高祖因之以成帝業。若跨有荊、益，保其巖險，西和諸戎，南撫夷越，外結好孫權，內修政理；天下有事，則命一上將將荊州之軍以向宛、洛；將軍身率益州之眾，出於泰川。」天下規模，孰大於是！所以，當時英雄，所見略同。
周瑜既敗曹瞞，因言於孫權曰：「今曹操既敗，方憂在腹心，未能與將軍連兵相事也。乞與奮威俱進，取蜀而並張魯，因留奮威固守其所，與馬超結援。瑜還與將軍據襄陽以蹙曹，北方可圖也。」江南形勝可以進窺中原者，其論蓋本諸此。
厥後，六朝勝敗不常，力皆不副。至於南宋諸公，有其言而無其事，然而其言亦精且悉矣。其所云：立都建業，築行宮於武昌及重鎮襄陽，以繫中原之望。又云：天下形勢，居西北足以控制東南，居東南不足以控制西北等語，具關至極，聖人復起，無以易也。
若夫朝廷之上置中書以綜機務，疆埸之外建專閫以總征伐，經理度支，撫馭軍民，適寬嚴之宜，得緩急之序，崇大體，立宏綱，破因循之舊格，布簡快之新條，使人人輯志，處處向向，斯立國之初政，又不可以一事不周者也。嗚呼！盜賊之與帝王，無俟觀其成敗，其規模氣象，蓋已不同矣。
卷九、兵聚必資屯田
干戈屢興，民不安業，郡縣蕭條，無雞犬聲。大兵一起，立見此景。語云：「師之所處，荊棘生焉。」信非虛也。如此，而擁大眾以征伐，掠無可掠，何況轉輸乎？
古所謂百萬之眾，無食不可一日支，正此時矣！李密以霸王之才，徒以用粟不節，卒致米盡人散之憂。昔漢之興也，食敖倉之粟；唐之興也，資黎陽之利。今天下俱匱，既無秦、隋之富以貽之，何所借以成漢、唐之大業乎？
屯田一著，所謂以人力而補天工也。其法不一，或兵屯，或民屯。大抵創業之屯與守成之屯不同。懷遠圖者，當於此處求之，無煩詳載也。
卷十、克敵在勿欲速
君見博虎者乎？平原廣澤，不惮馳騖以逐之。至於虎負隅矣，則當設網羅，掘陷阱，圍繞其出路，旁睨而伺之，久將自困。若奮不顧身，徑進而與之鬥，鮮不傷人矣！
吾之用兵，自初起以至於勢成，敵境日蹙而力亦日專，此亦負隅之虎也。吾欲一舉而斃之，豈可不厚為之防哉？
昔周世宗既平關南，宴諸將於行營，議取幽州。諸將曰：「陛下離京四十二日，兵不血刃，取燕南之地，此不世之功也。今虜騎皆聚幽州之北，未宜深入。」世宗卒還師。宋曹彬伐江南，欲速戰速決，謀臣劉昌言曰：「今江南地廣而兵多，國初財用豐盈，民心未離，非可以鋭兵快取者。宜遣使諭降，分兵守險，吾兵無戰而江南可得矣。」遂行其計而克之。
凡此用兵，重在耐心。速則易敗，徐則易成，此古今之定理也。
"Essentials of Strategy"
Volume 1: Knowing the Direction Before Raising Troops
Before the troops are deployed, there is much to consider, though not every detail needs to be expounded. Once mobilized, success lies in advancing decisively and swiftly. Advancement amplifies momentum, while swiftness seizes opportunity; in a matter of moments, victory or defeat is decided! Understanding the direction of movement is critical, and this direction depends on the relative strength of the enemy. If the enemy is weak, a direct strike to their core might be possible. If the enemy is strong, it is imperative to flank and weaken their periphery—this is a fundamental principle.
What does it mean to weaken their periphery? It means to "avoid the strong and attack the weak" and "capitalize on favorable opportunities." Avoiding the strong and attacking the weak throws the enemy into disarray, as if struck by a bolt from the blue. Capitalizing on opportunity spreads your fame and garners support far and wide. Consider how Emperor Taizong of Tang advanced toward Xianyang; he triumphed through progression. Conversely, note how Ying Bu retreated to Changsha and was defeated. Such moments of decision are fleeting and must not be squandered.
Mastering these foundational principles of strategy is key to achieving dominance. Those who understand this need nothing more. As for temporary advantages or minor tactical decisions, they are insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
Volume 2: The Essential Role of Unconventional Tactics
Is there only one way to wage war? Certainly not. Once the direction is clear, the conventional approach becomes self-evident. However, without unconventional tactics to complement the conventional, victory cannot be achieved. For example, Xiang Yu fought Zhang Han at Julu, enabling Liu Bang to take advantage and enter the heartland. Similarly, Zhong Hui engaged Jiang Wei at Jiange, allowing Deng Ai to bypass obstacles and penetrate Shu.
Thus, every battle has its unique unconventional tactic, every nation its distinctive strategy, and the world its overarching unconventional approaches. Sometimes, the conventional can serve as the unconventional, and vice versa. Yet, unconventional tactics are indispensable.
Commanders who fail to recognize the importance of unconventional tactics are either incompetent rulers or blind generals, deserving the label "abandoning one's troops." Consider Su Shi’s analogy of scaling walls by unconventional means—his insight is irreplaceable. For instance, Liu Bi’s advisor proposed taking five thousand troops to secure the regions of Huainan and Changsha, then converging at Wuguan. Likewise, Cao Cao’s feigned retreat at Yan Ford while secretly attacking Baima illustrates the power of unconventional methods. Therefore, never presume a direct path suffices without complementary maneuvers; doing so courts failure.
Volume 3: Decisive Engagements in Initial Encounters
Should armies invariably engage in battle when passing cities they do not intend to occupy? The answer is no. Battles occur not because they are desired but because they are unavoidable. When encountering an adversary, fighting becomes essential to deter pursuit. Deep within enemy territory, the opposing forces will rally their full strength against you, hoping to crush your momentum. In such cases, swift and decisive action is necessary to break the enemy's will, lest your troops scatter in panic. Striking unexpectedly demoralizes the enemy while bolstering your forces, laying the groundwork for further advances.
Historical examples abound: the decisive battles of Emperor Guangwu at Kunyang and Emperor Taizong at Huoyi are illuminating. Another instance is Shen Tianzi’s small force of a thousand defeating Yao Hong’s tens of thousands at Qingni. Shen declared, "Victory relies on ingenuity, not numbers. Facing overwhelming odds, it’s better to strike than be cornered." His success epitomizes the critical importance of seizing opportunity.
Volume 4: The Art of Ambush and Surprise
Combat is inevitable, but ill-conceived engagements bring ruin worse than inaction. Skillful commanders achieve victory through ambush and surprise. Examples include Sun Bin's defeat of Pang Juan, Han Xin's triumph over Chen Yu, and Li Mi's victory against Zhang Xu. Each employed weak forces to overcome the strong. While these are not the only techniques for victory, mastery of these methods guarantees success. Failure to employ them invites inevitable defeat.
Volume 5: Consolidating Victory Through Diplomacy
After victory, one must consolidate gains wisely. Subduing adversaries is best achieved through diplomacy, minimizing bloodshed. Following triumph, leaders must attract talent, stabilize governance, and integrate local populations, ensuring lasting control. For instance, granting titles to regional leaders often secures their loyalty without further combat.
Victory breeds authority; fear compels compliance. Conversely, reliance on empty promises in moments of weakness leads to failure. Diplomacy succeeds only when backed by the weight of victory.
Volume 6: Prioritizing Strategic Strongholds
The ancient adage, "Do not attack unassailable cities," is fundamental. Strategic locations determine the success of campaigns. For instance, Emperor Gaozu’s decision to first capture Wan before advancing westward secured his rear, enabling unhindered progression.
Neglecting critical strongholds often results in catastrophic setbacks. Examples like Di Qing’s capture of Kunlun showcase the decisive impact of securing strategic positions.
Volume 7: Defending Strongholds with Tactical Foresight
Conquering territory is easier than defending it effectively. Examples like Xiang Yu’s abandonment of critical locations, ultimately enabling Liu Bang to consolidate power, highlight the necessity of strategic foresight in defense. Mismanagement in this regard has repeatedly led to defeat throughout history.
Volume 8: Building a Nation on Strong Foundations
The advice of Zhuge Liang, advocating for a dual base in Jingzhou and Yizhou, exemplifies long-term planning. Establishing governance, securing alliances, and maintaining order are integral to nation-building. The decline of later dynasties often stemmed not from a lack of insight but from a failure to act decisively on sound strategies.
Volume 9: Sustaining Armies Through Agriculture
Warfare devastates civilian life and resources. Maintaining large armies becomes unsustainable without effective logistical planning. Historical successes often relied on agricultural initiatives like military settlements to sustain troops.
Volume 10: Patience Over Hastiness
Like cornering a tiger, overwhelming an enemy requires careful preparation. Rash actions often lead to unnecessary losses. Historical campaigns by Zhou Shizong and Song generals demonstrate the wisdom of patience. Victory is more often achieved through calculated restraint than reckless speed. This is an unchanging principle of warfare.
