Product Description

Kung Ming (Kong Ming, Zhu Geliang, or Zhuge Liang) is known as the "Hidden Dragon" or "Crouching Dragon" because adversaries always underestimated his skill. Kung Ming is one of the most exalted generals in Chinese history because of his brilliance in strategy. He was also an inventor and scholar, and his name is practically synonymous with wisdom. He lived during the Three Kingdoms era in China (from 190 to 280 approximately). Kung Ming is credited with writing several military strategy books including The Way of the General, which is based on Taoist principles. Many of the same theories that comprise modern Feng Shui, Kung Ming applied to military strategy, achieving great victory. Our hand crafted and well detailed ceramic statue depicts Kung Ming carrying his signature white fan, which was part of the docile disguise he employed to hide his true cunning nature. The Kung Ming statue makes a great gift for people involved in international business and strategic planning.
