孙杨
After waiting three months for an interview with Lord Chunshen (d. 238 BCE), the Prime Minister of Chu, Han Ming told a story equating himself to a "ji" "thoroughbred horse; virtuous person" being recognized by Bole. The (c. 121 CE) "Shuowen Jiezi" dictionary defined "ji" (tr. Spring 1988:188) as: "a thousand "li" horse that needs a Sun Yang (i.e., Po-le) to be recognized."
