zhugeliang's story is one of sadness. He followed a terribly incompetent lord in LuBei for a very miserable ending working his whole life without rest.
@amaya1334 I think, friend, that all mythical heroes would disappoint us. Yet we can enjoy our dream of this idealized Zhuge Liang and still draw from him a well of inspiration and admiration.
@ukno918 He's the sleeping dragon. In the song, he actually got compared to both phoenix and dragon. At 1:57, he was compared to dragon but there was an error in subtitle which still used phoenix.
What comes to mind when I think of Zhuge Liang is a mysterious man, he acts compassionately to his followers, yet imposes military discipline threateningly but not for an all threat purpose neccesarily (Like that time he allowed Guan Yu to live despite letting Cao Cao escape, his purpose was to 1. establish the 3 kingdoms, 2. let Guan Yu repay his debt to Cao Cao). He's ingenious but leads a harsh life, he always takes the difficult path, his love for others is comparable to Liu Bei.
The actor of this Zhuge Liang is perfect. He has that witty look when he was playing the young one, but had a sad and lonely look when Liu Bei, Guan Yu,, Zhang Fei etc.. all passed away with him left alone to fight Wei.
In my opinion Tang guo qiang was learning a lot to take the role of Zhuge Liang. Beside when he was young he also took many of soldier roles in the war story of films ,so that was profit experience for him to have the well understanding the role of Zhuge Liang and base on the role attitude and reaction with very superb performance. this actor's characteristic and mannerisms very worth the performance as the man who have the long time fighting to restore Shu Han name "Zhuge Liang"
Yes, no one can deny Zhuge Liang's talent. But what I admire Zhuge Liang is not his superhuman strategy. It is said that devote himself to his master until the death : "I can no longer lead the army to punish the traitor. Oh the mysterious and cruel Heaven, when does this resentment can be appeased ?". Who Chinese Prime Minister, a Confucian scholar had the battle-death as Zhuge Liang?
Lol great people of history usually gets hated or admired. I respect and admire Zhuge Liang. His existence in the three kingdoms actually had drastic importance in the warfare and people of that era. Everyone in China in the three Kingdom era respected his talent. Koming the sleeping dragon shall left his mark in chinese history.

sima yi sucks the reason he won is because i zhuge liamg sickness if zhuge liang have better health i am sure he won thats why it caused the northern 8 expedition sima yi cant compare zhuge liang thats why in historical view people see sima yi respect zhuge liang because his art war unpredictable and force sima yi force of change strategy in historical and historian point of view that they comment
@kungfudavid If you're talking novel, then fair enough. Though the novel made out Sima Yi to be second only to Zhuge Liang. He could easily beat everybody else.
If you're talking history though, neither Zhuge Liang nor Sima Yi were that good at command. Zhuge Liang was good at politics, military administration, diplomacy and overall strategy. But he couldn't lead an army well. He was too conservative and indecisive.
Zhang liang is wiser then most ppl in my views, he left when lui has the control instead of overstaying. in that era, look at xiao he and han xin fate. in qing, look at the general whom help yong zheng
I love Zhuge Liang's theme in this show, with the words and without that are played throughout the series, so much so that I learned how to play it on piano.
Especailly I like Tang Guo Qiang's performance as Kongming, he performed very active character and such a mature Zhuge Liang strategist, the image of politicians while he is a tragic figure.
nah.. when it comes to military advisor.. advisor of state.. no one in all of earth's history can compare to Zhuge Liang.. in my personal opinion.. this man has the intelligence to help you run your whole entire country.. and there is not a single treacherous thought in his mind of coup de tat.. remember he back his son too.. and his son was stupid.. he could took the throne.. if he wanted. he wasnt just a great advisor.. but was also a life long loyal friend.. find me one person in comparison
Read the 13 chapters of "The Arts of War" and talk to me again. * I. Laying Plans * II. Waging War * III. Attack by Stratagem * IV. Tactical Dispositions * V. Energy * VI. Weak Points and Strong * VII. Maneuvering * VIII. Variation of Tactics * IX. The Army on the March * X. Terrain * XI. The Nine Situations * XII. The Attack by Fire * XIII. The Use of Spies
ZhuGeLiang is the most loyal military advisor in China ever in World. No one can overtake his position. His loyalty are most of the highest of the world
Chinese lyrics like poetry when translate to English lost all it's impact style and thythm.. If anyone wish to truly feel the passion buried deeply within these words then start learning Chinese :)
I forget too about the Kingdoms, but I just wanted to point out that though Zhuge Liang was wise strategist, yet when you compare the creator of the Arts of War, I find it you are overpraising him.
Zhuge Liang is the symbol of intelligence, and no-one else in Chinese History has this title.
I quoted you, and yes maybe I was wrong to compare him with these people : Lao Tzu, Confucius, and Mencius. However, you cannot compare him to Sun Tzu.
@rinwhr he MIGHT actualli be more talented than Sun Tzu.. because everything Sun Tzu knew was handed to him through his family.. he just happen to use his gifts to a significant degree.. Zhuge Liang was just a simple farmer.. but we will never know the real answer.. so long ago
zhuge liang was "士" (The "士" was a noble class. it means educated ppl, well, sort of. Zhuge didn't make his living by farming. he did it for fun actually as many other "士" did. dont ask why, probably culture differences)
@rinwhr why is Sun Tzu so great? what concepts mentioned in Sun Zu'z art of war were radical in comparision to sima art of war or tai gong art of war which zhang liang used to establish the han dynasty
You do realize you are comparing the first teacher ( it's a term in case you don't know ) with Zhuge Liang right? And no, from what I remembered, Taoism was more accepted in China over Confucianism
No...I've seen more Confucius temples than Zhuge Liang's. I am not in the opinion of saying Zhuge Liang isn't "great", but when you are comparing him with the people I've listed, I just have to contradict.
totally agree john woo dont know jack shit about chinese histroy he's a fucking hollywood want to be... red cliff suck shit, i can only see those idol worshippers and ignorant(lack of chinese historical knowledge) will enjoy it as a action film... 3 kingdoms is more than just actions its everything
Did you kno John Woo has actually stated upfront in an interview that he was gonna make Red Cliff as historically accurate as possible? He even said that he will NOT use elements from Romance of the Three Kingdoms in support of that, which is funny, cuz I remember Zhuge Liang borrowed the 100,000 arrows in the film.
There is nothing wrong with creating a fictional story based loosely in history, but if John Woo is going to do so then he should at least grow a dick and be honest with it.
Zhuge Liang was really the ultimate sad destiny during the Three Kingdoms, he fate was doomed to one of stress, sorrow, and loneliness. While Jiang Wei willing chose to be a general (and basically became an extended life of Zhuge Liang), Zhuge Liang simply gave up his life of freedom to Liu Bei's dream. If Liu Bei's son was half as competitent as Cao Pi (cao cao's son), neither Zhuge Liang or Jiang Wei would have such tragic fates.
lol, yea, he's human. He was really happy at times (such as when they won victories) and sometimes angry (when he hears of traitors and ill advice). But for the most part, he does not create drama because he really analyzes the situation and can come up with a solution quickly.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
haha, you must really love Zhuge Liang to have named yourself after him. My favourite is Zhou Yu, that jealous, murderous bastard. And no, that has nothing to do with my initial dislike of Kong Ming.
btw, the actor who plays Zhang Fei looks like Li Kuei without his axes, and Guan Yu looks like he's wearing a Chinese opera mask, too much make-up for a dude! lol
lol, yea quite obvious, my fav is Zhuge Liang. Zhou Yu in a way, can be considered jealous but Zhuge Liang himself said that Zhou Yu was only trying to preserve/strengthen his state (Wu)when he was trying to kill Zhuge Liang all those times.
I think 'never display any real passion' may not be the most accurate description of Zhuge Liang. He was simply very focused in his ordeals and his goals that it may SEEM he's cold.
Zhuge Liang is an incomparable statesman - a truly timeless role-model for all of us.
Yes you are on the right track, but I think you are explaining in incorrect way. He was simply doing his job, but most people aren't like that and they think he is cold. George Bush ( not saying he is a great president ) is doing his job and a lot of people make fun of him a lot.
zhugeliang's story is one of sadness. He followed a terribly incompetent lord in LuBei for a very miserable ending working his whole life without rest.

I think we also need to take into account the fact that Zhuge Liang was a Chancellor (or Prime Minister).
He therefore obviously had adequate access to food, water, medical treatments etc. whereas the average chinese people back then probably did not.
Compare how long Zhuge Liang lived to Cao Cao (65), Liu Bei (62) and Sun Quan (70) and you'll see that he really did die young.
