This idiom, "首尾相应" (shǒu wěi xiāng yìng), describes perfect coordination between things or actions, like the legendary Changshan snake: strike its head, and the tail comes; strike its tail, and the head comes; strike its middle, and both head and tail come. It is also used to describe the rigorous and tight structure of literary works.

这个成语“首尾相应”形容事物或行动之间配合默契，就像常山蛇一样，击打头部尾巴会跟上，击打尾巴头部会跟上，击打中间头部和尾巴都会攻击，也用来形容文章结构严谨紧密。
