Tang, who was the first exchange student from Tamkang University on a government scholarship, was a roommate of his who had come to Spain to study for a PhD in literature. Every day he helped Hsieh cram for Spanish; Tang even translated notes Hsieh borrowed from his classmates and went over them with him.
就在此時，他遇到生命中的「貴人」唐富貴，這位到西班牙攻讀文學博士的室友，是淡江大學第一屆公費留學生，不僅每天幫他惡補西語，連謝嘉亨向同學借來的陶瓷化學課筆記，他也翻譯之後再教他一遍。
