”虎爸談虎女”

He was known for his strict parenting and high expectations, which his daughter credited with helping her achieve at the highest levels.

The profile emphasized Su Chun-huai’s role in helping his daughter learn about other fields while helping others — a philosophy of mutual learning and growth.
