溜须拍马

The singer was surrounded by the usual crowd of lackeys and hangers on.

那个歌手让那帮须拍马、前呼後拥人给围住了。

During my colleagues, there are so many superexcellent ones, trickish ones, adulatory ones, who are doing better than me, and I have fallen to a walk-on.

同事中，能力卓越者、攻于心计者、须拍马者，强于我更不胜其数，己现在已沦为一个跑龙套。
