齐威王召即墨大夫，语之曰：“自子之居即墨也，毁言日至。然吾使人视即墨，田野辟，人民给，官无事，东方以宁；是子不事吾左右以求助也！”封之万家。召阿大夫，语之曰：“自子收阿，誉言日至。吾使人视阿，田野不辟，人民贫馁。昔日赵攻yan，子不救；卫取薛陵，子不知；是子厚币事吾左右以求誉也！”是日，烹阿大夫及左右尝誉者。于是群臣耸惧，莫敢布诈，务尽其情，齐国大治，强于天下。

批评家应该怎么样帮助张艺谋
欧美票房大卖之后，《英雄》和《十面埋伏》就成了国内批评界无法回避，又难以下咽的棘手难题。两部影片的共同的苍白和空洞，在中国的批评语境中有着不言自明的“原罪”。而欧美等海外观众的追捧，却给这种不证自明的评价体系和评价方式，提出了不得不考虑的另一个角度。
《英雄》和《十面埋伏》在国内外、圈内外反差巨大的评价，也绝非艺术与商业之争那么简单。张艺谋在国内外、圈内外之间如此不能两全，除了造成他自己的创作处于尴尬和分裂的状态之外，更证明了在国内外、圈内外的电影观念和审美标准之间，存在着多么巨大的差异。这样的差异不但给张艺谋带来尴尬，其实也一直是中国电影人的普遍困惑。批评家若能为这种差异找到真正的成因，将为包括张艺谋在内的中国电影人提供巨大的帮助。
