Strengthening the cultivation of foreign-related legal talents is the key to enhancing the development of foreign-related rule of law. The methodology of teaching foreign-related laws should be guided by laws of different nations and relevant practices. The common law is characterized in that rulings in precedents are inherently intertwined with the facts, and in practice, the focus of controversy often lies in determining the similarities and differences between the facts of the current disputed case and that of the precedents. In judicial practice, all parties in dispute are arguing for their own favorable statements of facts. This article proposes that the ability to identify and construct statement of facts should be cultivated from the perspective of the values protected by the law, drawing on examples from classic common law cases Pierson v. Post and Ghen v. Rich.
