Once a prodigy of calligraphy, his handwriting is terrible now. What has he experienced?

This sounds more like the story of Shang. In fact, the so-called "calligraphy prodigy" is also a kind of self-promotion, or it is touted by the media. Some children have early intellectual development, or have an environment around them to learn calligraphy. They started practicing very early, and their calligraphy level surpassed that of their peers. After media reports, they are easily called "calligraphy prodigies". In fact, this is not a calligraphy prodigy at all, and there is no calligraphy.

When He Shilong was a child, his calligraphy was almost as bad as that of some veteran cadres. His writing was messy, but he dared to write. His writing is actually better than that of ordinary children. I don't know who called him a "calligraphy prodigy". At first, he wrote about Jianghu style, and now he still writes about Jianghu style. Can be said to be consistent. It can't be said that he has become a Jianghu wind now. He has always been a Jianghu style of study.

Originally, he was a good prospect, but he was called a calligraphy prodigy just because he learned Jianghu style and also because he learned Jianghu style. The reason lies in Mr. He Shilong, not the boy who didn't know calligraphy from the beginning. His teacher did not lead him to the right path, which can be said to be misleading.

Now the Jianghu style written by He Shilong has reached the point where people can't bear to look directly at it. He didn't reflect himself. He can only say that what the teacher instilled is wrong, which can't blame a child. From the beginning, he had no formal post and no basic calligraphy training. Without posts, there is no source of calligraphy creation and output. Imitating the teacher's Jianghu style, his talent will soon run out, and there is no room for reflection and improvement.

There is no such thing as a "prodigy" in calligraphy. Calligraphy relies not on a temporary talent, but on constant training all the year round. It is difficult to write good calligraphy works because the practice time is not long enough and there are not many books to read. Even calligraphers such as Wang Xizhi and Yan Zhenqing were later recognized. Some people say that "it takes ten years to produce a painter and thirty years to produce a calligrapher", which is reasonable.
