[Debate Script] 12-24 Three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang (Third Speaker)

My opponent delivered some excellent arguments during the rebuttal phase, but also made some conceptual and logical errors that confused the audience and judges. Therefore, I will now use logical thinking to help everyone organize their thoughts.

First, I want to reiterate the meaning of "cobbler" and "Zhuge Liang." Both the "cobbler" and "Zhuge Liang" were just ordinary human beings. It's just that Zhuge Liang achieved far greater things than most, while the cobbler didn't reach such heights and therefore doesn't enjoy the same level of recognition. We shouldn't deify Zhuge Liang, nor should we belittle the cobbler. Achieving success requires more than just expertise; many other factors influence it, such as opportunity. Therefore, essentially, Zhuge Liang and the cobbler were people with similar potential.

Secondly, I need to explain the saying "Three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang." "Three cobblers" is a metonym, referring to a group of people. This could be interpreted as one Tao Jing, or three Chen Hans. Zhuge Liang, on the other hand, represents someone whose abilities are acknowledged as comparable to the aforementioned cobblers, also a metonym. The whole saying means that one or more people with lower public recognition can be as effective as one person with higher public recognition.

Secondly, why is it that three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang? Because everyone has their own expertise, because 1+N>1, and because effective cooperation—note, effective cooperation, effective cooperation—is more effective than one person working alone. There are countless examples of this, so I won't go into detail. The four people sitting here are the best illustration of this.

Finally, I'd like to refute the opposing argument. They claim that XXX alone achieved XXX, surpassing even ten thousand ordinary people. This is utter nonsense! Two points: First, everyone has their own expertise, and he certainly has achievements that others can match. But are they all just looking at people in a one-sided way? From childhood, teachers have taught us to look at things comprehensively, let alone people. According to your methods, I alone could surpass him: let's compare football skills or running. Second, what if two or more XXXs cooperate effectively? What if an unparalleled XXX emerges? Then you say two XXs can't beat one XXX?

Therefore, we firmly, persistently, and unwaveringly believe that three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang!
