What are the records of Shi Zhiyong in Sui Dynasty in history?

Shi Zhiyong was a calligrapher of Chen Sui Dynasty (6th century AD) in China. His surname is Wang, he is a monk, his first name, and his date of birth and death is unknown. Born in Huiji (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang), he was the seventh grandson of Wang Xizhi, a calligrapher in the Jin Dynasty.

In his later years, he wrote more than 1000 books with the truth as the content, and selected the most satisfactory 800 books and distributed them to temples in eastern Zhejiang. Up to now, the ink block and woodcut of Zhi Yong's Thousand-Character Works are still regarded as a model for learning calligraphy.

Dong Qichang's Essay on Painting Zen Rooms in the Ming Dynasty said that he learned from Zhong You's Show Table, "Every pen must twist its pen and sink into a bundle instead, so-called writing should be through the back of the paper". He, who wrote Thousand Characters, said: "Pens and pens come from the air and live in the air. Although there are leaks in the house, it is not enough to say. " When we read his ink painting "Thousand Characters" carefully, we can see that he hides his head and protects his tail, and his brushwork is tortuous, subtle and rhythmic. Dong and his words can be described as accurate, specific and appropriate.
