Explanation

“三个臭皮匠赛过诸葛亮”是说三个才能平庸的人，如果能同心协力集思广益，也能提出比诸葛亮（一个中国古代非常聪明的人）还周到的计策。 比喻人多智慧多，有事情经过大家商量，就能商量出一个好办法来。
“三个臭皮匠赛过诸葛亮” means three average people, with their wits combined, can outthink even Zhuge Liang (an incredibly smart person from ancient China). It is a metaphor for how more people means more wisdom, and that a discussion among many people can create a good solution to a problem.
