For example.
Once, the Teacher asked, "Tang Qing, what is the most important thing in a news interview?"
Tang Qing answered, "Finding the interviewee."
Look at that.
So insightful.
So profound.
It's just that the Teacher was somewhat at a loss whether to laugh or cry because the answer was obviously a bit off-topic, and yet it seemed not entirely wrong.
The Teacher then asked, "What do you do if a passerby being interviewed on the street doesn't cooperate?"
Tang Qing replied, "Here's a hundred bucks for ten minutes of your time."
Simple and effective.
Of course.
All this was part of the fun in the classroom.
Afterward, Tang Qing would provide some so-called 'standard answers', along with some personal analysis and insights, which generally earned him a kind smile from the Teacher, who thought that this kid was quite spirited and not rigid in thinking.
What a pity.
Tang Qing wasn't their student.
...
In the classroom.
To accommodate Tang Qing's habits.
