Recently, I became obsessed with "The Round Table" hosted by Dou Wentao, and I squeezed in my free time to watch some. The two people who impressed me the most were Luo Lang, a gourmet from the United States, and Chen Xiaoqing, a Chinese food documentary.

Luo Lang likes Chinese food, and he often rides his bicycle around China for several months, even more than the Chinese have traveled through China. He can speak fluent Mandarin, has a very deep research on food, and loves to search and collect ingredients everywhere. In the process, he became a person who understood China better than the Chinese, and his understanding of life even reached a philosophical level.

Chen Xiaoqing's "A Bite of China" is a household name. His research on food is also extremely profound. He can tell the history of food and can identify the most delicious dishes in a restaurant at a glance. In his conversation, you can feel his philosophy and aesthetics towards life, which are transparent and profound.

Neither of these two people seem to be scholars in the strict sense, but the depth of their research in their own fields is no less profound than that of a scholar in their own academic research; The study of this field - food, gradually masters China's history, culture, China's economic development and influence, philosophy of life, attitude, etc. Their insights completely transcend their own fields and leave a broad and profound impression on people.

It was these two guests who suddenly made me discover two things of great significance:

1. For individuals, they should base themselves on their own fields and carry out in-depth cultivation. In the process of deep cultivation, you can completely break the surface. It doesn’t mean you need to try everything or just touch everything.

2. When it comes to educating children, it does not necessarily mean that they must be academically competent. Every aspect of training and learning for children can be a way to build their inner strength and broaden their ideological realm.
