Li Ao once said a story, "Don't hit him on the head."

The story told by Li Ao in the program is about Socrates, a famous ancient Greek philosopher.

The main idea of the story is as follows: Socrates offended the rulers of Athens because of his sharp words.

One day, the ruler invited Socrates to watch a game.

At the end of the game, the ruler ordered the general to applaud Socrates, and ordered the soldiers to throw Socrates out of the field.

However, the ruler also ordered the soldiers not to hit Socrates on the head because his mind was too clever.

This story shows Socrates' unyielding attitude towards the ruler and his awe of wisdom to a great extent.

Although the ruler wants to punish Socrates, he still wants to admit Socrates' outstanding wisdom.

This story also shows Li Ao's respect for Socrates, who he thinks is a model of criticizing reality and seeking truth.
