You owe a debt you can't repay. The man you owe is more powerful than you—and he's invited you to dinner on his own ground, surrounded by his men. Everyone knows it's a trap. So what do you do?
Eighteen hundred years ago, the warrior Guan Yu faced exactly this. He'd borrowed the region of Jingzhou and refused to return it. Now the rival state of Wu set a banquet to force his hand: give it back, or die at the table. Guan Yu came almost alone—one man, one blade—and walked out untouched, having turned a losing hand into control of the whole meeting.
This audiobook is more than a famous story. It's a masterclass in how the weaker side wins a negotiation stacked against them: why real power comes from who defines what the meeting is about, and how to tell when boldness works and when it's suicide.
But it won't lie to you. Guan Yu won the meeting—yet the debt he dodged came back years later and cost him his life. Steering a conversation and solving a problem are not the same thing.
Ancient wisdom. Modern decisions. Twenty minutes. Step into the lion's den.
