2. Wang Xizhi, the most outstanding calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was born in Linyi, Langya. He lived in Huiji Mountain and was a general of the right army. He was called "Wang Youjun". Wang Xizhi began to learn calligraphy at the age of seven, and studied under Mrs. Wei and his uncle, both of whom were born in a calligraphy family. Later, he visited the exquisite works of Qin and Han dynasties, studied their styles, imitated their hands, learned from others' strengths, and merged them into one furnace, creating a running script that was "natural and rich in spirit" and was praised as a "book saint" by later generations.
