The most penetrating protagonist is Wang Xizhi. Because Wang Xizhi liked writing on wooden boards since he was a child, the emperor once asked him to write inscriptions. When the carpenter looked at the wooden boards, he found that Wang Xizhi's calligraphy seemed to be carved into the wooden boards. The writing penetrated more than three-thirds of the board. Therefore, he used "three points into the wood" to praise the power of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. , writing very hard, this word is also used today to describe a person who has a very profound insight into an article and praises the other person for being thorough.
1. Who is the protagonist of "Three Points into the Wood"
Wang Xizhi, the protagonist of "Three Points into the Wood", is from Shaoxing, Zhejiang, and is also one of the most famous calligraphers in my country. His good calligraphy is not only related to talent. , it is also inseparable from his hard practice. In order to practice calligraphy well, he would always think about the structure of the characters when walking or sleeping, and how to write in order to make the calligraphy straight and powerful. Therefore, he would use his fingers to mark on his clothes at any time, and his clothes would become worn out over time.
He once practiced calligraphy by a pond. After practicing, the pond was black, which shows how much effort he put into calligraphy. Once the emperor asked him to write a congratulatory message on a wooden board. The carver was very shocked when he saw his handwriting. His writing power was actually embedded in the wood for more than three points, so he praised him, it was really penetrating into the wood! This is where the idiom "three points into the wood" comes from.
2. Wang Xizhi’s calligraphy achievements
Wang Xizhi liked calligraphy since he was a child. He was inspired by his father and uncle. He learned calligraphy style and techniques from Mrs. Wei in his early years and was influenced by her. The calligraphy follows Zhong Fa's new style of writing. On this basis, he extensively studied calligraphy and finally made great achievements in regular script. The lines of regular script are relatively steady and give people a sense of weight. Therefore, the ending and starting parts of the writing must be rigorous and delicate, and the processing of turning points is the main thing. Wang Xizhi's turning points are a bit sharper, making the text structure more full, and the details are processed. Properly done, the whole work highlights its majestic momentum.
The reason why he is known as the sage of calligraphy is due to his pushing regular script and cursive script to new heights. Summarizing his experience in using pens, we can see that he can summarize his calligraphy and make it better than the old calligraphy. Basically, I took advantage of it to constantly break through myself, and I started and stopped writing very well. From this it can be seen that Wang Xizhi is very rich in the use of his brush, and his strokes are decisive. He randomly creates shapes and follows the shapes. It can be said to be a magical stroke that is elusive.
