The key to the formation of official script is

The formation of official script has gone through a long process, in which the evolution of Chinese character form and writing style, Qin Shihuang's policy of cultural unification and Li Si's standardization of official script are the key roles.

1, the evolution of Chinese character morphology and writing style;

In the early stage of the development of Chinese characters, there were no standardized glyphs and writing methods, which led to different glyphs and chaotic styles. The shape of Chinese characters is gradually standardized and some basic stroke structures have been formed. This process laid the foundation for the later official script.

2. Qin Shihuang's unified cultural policy:

The unified cultural policy requires that the whole country only use a standardized written form, which shows the political and cultural will of the Qin Dynasty. With the implementation of the unified policy, a national writing standard has been formed.

3. The normative expression of Li Si's Official Book;

Li Si was one of the important cultural and political figures in Qin Shihuang's period, and was ordered to sort out and standardize his calligraphy style. In the production of official script, he simplified and simplified Chinese characters by virtue of his own aesthetic standards, which made his writing style more neat and accurate. His works make official script a symbolic writing style, which has been passed down to this day.

2. Influence on later calligraphy:

Lishu played an important role as a bridge in the later development of calligraphy. It is not only an important branch and foundation of China's calligraphy, but also the basis for the evolution and development of calligraphy styles such as regular script and running script. The standardization and neatness of official script has played an important guiding role in calligraphy practice and learning.
