Cheng (pinyin: chéng) is a common Chinese character, which first appeared in Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Shang Dynasty.
The original meaning of "success" is generally considered as completion, while some people think that the original meaning is city. From completion to maturity and adulthood.
It is also extended to achievement and achievement, which means "success" and "success". In addition, it further extends to perfection, reconciliation and equality.
Cheng was first seen in Oracle Bone Inscriptions and Oracle bone inscriptions in Shang Dynasty (figure 1), with a broad-mouthed axe on the right and a long strip on the lower left. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the short vertical is written below, which is connected with the short horizontal on the "Xu", and a dot is added in the middle of the short vertical to play a decorative role.
Seal script even changed the word "Cheng" to "E", and there was "Ding" in it. On the basis of this myth, the word "Cheng" was finally finalized when the regular script turned the stroke connected with the whole in the upper right corner into a relatively independent point and the "D" shape into a horizontal hook.
