Since our main character for this Cyberfair project was Ershui¡¦s new
legend, we thought about visiting Mesona Factory in Ershui Township when we
were planning for the research in the beginning. When our Principal told us
that Mesona was produced by ancient technique, we were curious with many
questions such as what the ancient technique was, why the technique was better,
and could they do mass production with current technology. Originally, we scheduled the interview with the owner of Mesona Factory
through the help of the elder from Tachiuyuen Leisure Farm. We tried very hard
to prepare our first formal interview in our life. We adjusted our questions
again and again, and discussed with the teacher about how to correct the logic
of our questions. We also got all the interview equipment ready. However, one shocking phone call messed up everything that the owner of
Mesona Factory died. We were very frustrated with the burst situation. The anticipated
schedule was paused, and we did not know what we could do next. Did Mesona Factory continue after the owner died? Was there any other
people know the ancient technique? What could we do if no one else knows this? We were so anxious, but we could
not do anything except waiting at school. Later, our principal asked the elder of Tachiuhuen Leisure Farm to check
with Mrs. Huang at Mesona Factory again to see if she could accept our
interview during her grief period. Even thought Mrs. Huang agreed to do it, we
were still very worried about her situation. If she was very sad, what could we
do? We had different worries in different days. Fortunately, the teacher noticed our concerns and reminded us that a sufficient preparation would show Mrs. Huang our respect to her, and a good recording on the ancient technique Mrs. Huang taught us would be the best comfort to her. We then felt much better on our worries. Therefore, we adjusted our mood, and prepared to do a successful
interview to reach our original expectation.
