Epitaph of qigong: body name is the same as stink.
1978, 66-year-old Mr. Qi Gong wrote his own epitaph and described his life in a humorous style. Middle school students, associate professors. Bo is not good, but he is not an expert. Although famous, it is not enough. Neither high nor low. Left paralysis, send to right. The surface is slightly round and the skin is not thick. Wife is dead, and there is no queen. The loss is fresh, but the illness remains the same. Sixty-six, not longevity. Babaoshan, getting together. In my life, I said I was ugly. The body stinks with the name. ?
He is the ninth generation grandson of Yong Zhengdi in Qing Dynasty, but he doesn't want to be called Aisingiorro? Qigong. Someone wrote to him and said: Aisingiorro？ Open and close. ? He simply marked it? There is no such person, please return it? . He is a famous contemporary painter and calligrapher in China. He put it on the door when he was ill? Hibernate, refuse to visit, knock on the door and push the door, fined one yuan? Note, but only posted for one day, it was taken away. At the age of 66, he wrote his epitaph and laughed at himself. In my life, I said I was ugly. The body stinks with the name. ? After 27 years, the epitaph finally appeared? Carved? On his tombstone.
In the long life of 93 years, it is hard for many people to imagine what ups and downs they have experienced. However, good family education, rich experience, extensive knowledge and optimistic and kind personality enable him to treat the honor and disgrace in the world with a detached attitude and always maintain a pure and profound childlike innocence. ? After everything, why are you so optimistic? Hou Gang, director of Beijing Normal University Office, is the only work assistant in Mr. Qi Gong's life. He once asked Mr. Wang and answered:? I never look back on my troubles. A person's life is divided into the past, the present and the future. The past has passed, the present is short, and it will soon pass. Only the future has hope. ?

Manchu, Ai Xinjue Roche, the fifth son of Qing Sejong and the eighth grandson of Prince Hongzhou. Beijingers. White, also known as Yuan Bo. He lost his childhood and his family was poor. After dropping out of Beijing Academy, he made great efforts to teach himself. A little longer, I studied under Jia Ximin and Wu Jingting's calligraphy and Dai Classical Literature. Study hard and finally succeed in school. 1933 was recommended by Mr. Fu Zengxiang, studied under Chen Yuan, and dabbled in academic classification and textual research. Later, he was hired as a Chinese teacher in Fu Jen Middle School. 65438-0935, Assistant Professor, Fine Arts Department, Fu Jen Catholic University; 1938, he served as a lecturer in China Literature Department of Fu Jen Catholic University, and concurrently served as a special member of the Palace Museum, engaged in peer review and cultural relics appraisal in the Palace Museum; 1949 Associate Professor of China Literature Department of Fu Jen Catholic University and Associate Professor of Peking University Museum Department; 1952, he served as an associate professor and professor of Beijing Normal University.

Artistic feature
Mr. Qi Gong is a famous contemporary scholar, painter and calligrapher. He is rich in works, familiar with linguistics and philology, and even has a good study of eight-part essays that have become historical relics; He is not only an excellent poet, but also an expert in ancient calligraphy and painting, especially the study of inscriptions.
Appreciating his calligraphy works is always associated with his intensive study of inscriptions, because his research on inscriptions is inextricably linked with his achievements in calligraphy art. Inscription research is a science that rose in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Now, with the continuous excavation of underground ink, it has opened up a new realm. He is one of the pioneers of this garden. This knowledge can be divided into two categories: one is to study historical materials, supplement history with inscriptions, or collate essays; The second is to appreciate and study his calligraphy art. Mr. Qi Gong is good at both, and he is better at the latter. He combined the two, and his method broke through the barriers of predecessors. ? Buying bamboo slips and returning pearls is different. Most of the rubbings belong to calligraphers. What's the use of rambling? How many collectors recite? . He wrote this poem because many connoisseurs in the past paid attention to the calligraphy of inscriptions, but often turned a blind eye to the words in them. Famous artists such as Weng Fanggang and Ye all have this defect. He never misses the content of his prose. Because of this, he refuted the "Cao E Monument" that has always been conclusive. Therefore, the so-called "Cao E tablet" written by Wang Xizhi in small letters no longer exists. What's more, Cai Yong's book Dan.
Among Mr. Qi Gong's calligraphy theory works, I like his metaphors and quips best. He has unique views on the art of calligraphy and many problems in the history of calligraphy, which is his decades of experience in calligraphy practice and research. Especially self-annotation, Wen Juan's escape, and his opinions. I have some long-standing problems myself, and after reading them, I feel solved and suddenly enlightened. For example, the textual research of Ode to the Bird originated from the dedication of Kaiyuan Hanlin; In the face of Japanese Fujimoto's book "Le Yi Lun", it proves Wang Xizhi's strong writing style; Identify Zhang and Yu Xin's "not empty" as the pen of Song Dynasty after "Dazhong Xiangfu"; On the True Features of Suo Jing's Calligraphy in Ge Tie from the Remnants of Jin People. These are all cases in the history of calligraphy, and the arguments are solid enough to be convincing. In addition, for example, Cai Xiang and Zhu Yunming's calligraphy did not become their own paragraphs; The calligraphy of Liu Gongquan and Huang Tingjian is perfect, and the words are bound together. Among them, it is very incisive to distinguish the characteristics of famous calligraphers in past dynasties, the style and style of calligraphy in each era, and even the origin of calligraphy and the reasons for its changes.
school achievement
Qi Gong is not only a famous contemporary painter, but also familiar with language research and ancient calligraphy and painting appraisal, especially the study of inscriptions. In the study of inscriptions, Qi Gong opened up a new research method, saying: Buying bamboo slips and returning pearls is different. Most of the rubbings belong to calligraphers. What's the use of rambling? I've seen collectors recite them. ? Change the way that famous scholars such as Ye and Weng Fanggang only pay attention to form and not content when studying ancient Chinese characters; I only know calligraphy, but I know a little about its characters.
In addition to exploring new ways in research methods, Qi Gong also made a clear comment on the authenticity of the tablet of Cao E, a dutiful daughter, and decided that the tablet of Cao E handed down from generation to generation was definitely not the original work of Wang Xizhi. During this period, although some scholars raised objections, for example, Hong Kong scholar Chen Sheng once wrote an article on the silk ink of the Monument to a Filial Piety, but with his unique research methods and profound knowledge, Qi Gong strongly refuted Chen's argument and made a profound accusation against Chen's statement. Nonsense? Finally, the authenticity of the "filial daughter Cao E monument" can be identified. For a detailed discussion, please refer to Poems on Books, Manuscripts of Ancient Fonts and Notes on Books by Qi Gong.
Three discussions on calligraphy and painting appraisal
A discussion: identification is not only the identification of authenticity.
There are many complicated situations in calligraphy and painting handed down from ancient times, and both ends of the original can include concerts. For example, copying ancient Chinese characters, copying ancient paintings, adding fake money to ancient paintings without money, writing on behalf of authenticity, matching and direct imitation. Some things can't be covered by the word authenticity. We should analyze and understand them carefully, dare to be self-righteous and admit that we don't understand them realistically, instead of pretending to be correct and posing as an authority. He cited the example of predecessors, saying that anyone who is willing to say or dare to say that he doesn't understand, is unclear and needs to study must be a real expert.
Second discussion: there is some ambiguity in the identification of calligraphy and painting.
Mr. Qi pointed out the disadvantages of calligraphy and painting appraisal, and put forward his own views on the limitations and ideas of appraisal. Point out that everyone has their own limitations. Due to the limitation of thinking method, academic level, subjective preference and external influence, appraisers can't fully understand and their opinions can't always be correct. Objectively, there will be many problems that we cannot understand at present. Therefore, it is the only scientific attitude to know more about them, be modest and prudent, and admit that the appraisal work has its limitations and some fuzziness. Mr. Qi also put forward the idea of attaching importance to the development of modern science and using modern science and technology to make up for the lack of human ability.
Three theories: there are secular feelings in the appraisal.
Calligraphy and painting appraisal is not limited to the level of appraisers, but may also be made because of various social resistance? Bend your heart? An unfair conclusion. He summed up eight things according to the true story he knew: 1. Imperial power; 2. Hold high; 3. long-term; 4. Protection against short circuit; 5. Respect people with high morality; 6. Far-reaching harm; 7. get carried away; 8. Be tolerant of others. Analyze the reasons one by one and give examples. Finally, it is suggested that we should be open-minded and tolerant of the public. I want to use this language to encourage my colleagues.
This article by Mr. Qi Gong not only discusses the principles and methods of appraisal work, but also emphasizes the appraiser's own professional and quality cultivation, and advocates calm mind, modesty and prudence, seeking truth from facts and correctly understanding himself. In some parts of the article, he analyzed himself as an example and argued peacefully and seriously. Although his topic is calligraphy and painting appraisal, it can also be used for reference for other kinds of appraisal work.
Personality assessment
Ouyang Zhongshi, a famous calligrapher, commented on Mr. Qi Gong in an interview with the media after learning the news of his death. Mr. Qi Gong's preschool education is very solid, and his Confucian foundation is not deep. He respects his teacher very much, and is also very modest and easy-going to his students, which also affects his students and learns from him seriously. ? 、? The greatest feature of Mr. Qi's life is prosaic, and his poems are also prosaic, clear and close. ? Learn to be a teacher and behave yourself? Very profound, it should be said that this is a motto of normal colleges and universities, and it can also be regarded as a portrayal of Mr. Qi's life. ? 、? I think Mr. Qi didn't go well at all. In education, he didn't go all the way to college. But his field of specialization has gone far beyond the field of the school. This is respectable. Broad and profound? It is very appropriate to put four words on Mr. Qi. Now that he's gone, we're missing a walking dictionary. ? .
Peng Liming, vice chairman of China Calligraphers Association, commented on Mr. Qi Gong: Mr. Qi Gong is a master of Chinese calligraphy and cultural relics collection. He is frank, honest, elegant and humorous, and he is a model of being a teacher. Qi Gong, Chairman of the Second China Calligraphers Association, made great contributions to the development and innovation of China's calligraphy. His death is a great loss to the calligraphy and literature circles in China. Mr. Qi Gong insisted on taking care of his students until his later years, and his life was full of peaches and plums. We will always remember him. ? Mr. Peng Liming recalled that Mr. Qi Gong was very humorous and had many interesting stories in his life. A collector once asked him to distinguish Mr. Qi Gong's works from his collection. After reading Qigong, he found that they were fake, but he didn't say it directly, but said humorously, Oh, this is better than what I wrote! ?
Mr. Chen Geng Qiao, research librarian of Shandong Museum and judge of China Calligraphers Association, said? Qi Lao is a famous scholar, educator, calligrapher and a recognized connoisseur in society. He has been strongly supporting the appreciation and auction of cultural relics in China, and is deeply loved by the cultural relics circles in China. Since the early 1980s, I have had many contacts with Mr. Qi Gong. What impressed me the most and inspired me the most was seeking truth from facts in the identification of cultural relics: when you identify ancient paintings and calligraphy, you know what you know, but if you don't know, you say you don't know, which is very frank. I once brought the Qing Dynasty picture album collected by the provincial museum to Beijing for identification by Mr. Qi Gong, who gave me a lot of inspiration. In addition, I feel that some of his ideas are very open-minded and often expressed in simple language. He is a fan of Beijing opera, and often says: In Beijing opera, Ban Yan comes first, and the charm is behind. The same is true of writing. Only by paying attention to structure can we seek charm. ? This sentence has greatly inspired my artistic creation for many years, and I have avoided some detours. ?
Appreciation of book excerpts
As a collator of Mr. Wang's oral history, Zhao, a professor at the School of Literature of Beijing Normal University and a student of Mr. Wang, told reporters that as early as more than ten years ago, he hoped to help Mr. Wang collate an oral history recording his life, but he always declined. ? On the one hand, Mr. Wang refused because his family background was difficult to evaluate and express in words; On the other hand, because he doesn't want to repeat the pain of the past, he doesn't want to recall the pain hidden in his heart. ? But with the passage of time, under the appeal of everyone, Qigong finally reluctantly agreed to dictate.
My last name is not Essien Gioro.
My name is Qigong, and my personality is Bai, also known as Bai. I am Manchu, referred to as Manchu for short, and I belong to Zhenglan Banner.
Because my name is Gong Kai, my family name is Kay Gong Ming. Some people say your name is Essien Choro, right? Nowadays, many Ai Xin's surnames are very boastful, and they want others to call him Aisingiorro. People are willing to call him that as a compliment. This is actually boring. Facts have proved that if Aisinggioro can really be used as a surname, whether it is humiliation or glory, it is completely at the mercy of politics. What's there to boast about? Why do you want to say it with it? That's why I don't want to take Aisingiorro as my last name emotionally.
In the 1980s, some members of the Aisinggioro family wanted to hold a painting and calligraphy exhibition in the name of this family, and invited me to participate. I am not interested in such a name, so I wrote two poems. The first one means that even noble families and Xie will inevitably go through this level? In the old society, Wang Xietang flew into the homes of ordinary people? With the changes of life, truly capable people do not attach importance to their families. Take Rainbow Xizhi as an example. When he signed his autograph, he never flaunted himself as a descendant of the noble Wang family, but who can say that he is not? Book saint? So what! The second song is that I look like a clown on the stage of ancient drama? Bao Lao? I'm in rags, I'm not amazing, and I've been a lang for a long time. How can I deserve to play such an elegant play with you? Don't call me even if you want to join. These two poems of mine may offend people of the same clan, but they are my true thoughts.
But some people like this. Someone wrote to me. Love writing? Aisingiorro Qigong? No, at first I just laughed it off. And then more and more. Why don't I make a mark? There is no such person, please return it? . Really, do you believe me? Check my ID card, household registration book and all official files. Never? Aisingiorro Qigong? People like that.
Although I don't want to call myself Essien Joro, I am indeed a descendant of the Qing royal family. I briefly describe my family background here, not to show off my aristocratic background, but because many of them are closely related to the modern history of China. I am Yong Zhengdi's ninth grandson. The fourth son of Yongzheng was Li Hong, who succeeded to the throne. This is Emperor Qianlong. Hongzhou, the fifth son of Yongzheng, was born only one hour later than Li Hong. Of course, they are half-brothers. After Qianlong ascended the throne, he was named Prince of Peace. Our team is the offspring of the prince.
Manager Qi Baishi calls me a child.
From the age of fifteen to the age of twenty-five, I was lucky enough to meet some famous artists, poets and scholars at that time, such as Jia Ximin, Wu Jingting, Dai, Pu Xin, Pu Xuezhai and Qi Baishi. I formally salute some of them. Under their instruction, my knowledge and skills that I am better at in the future have laid the foundation and been cultivated. When I recall my own growth, I can't help but mention them.
Tell me about Mr. Qi Baishi. I have a distant fourth uncle who runs a coffin shop and once made first-class longevity materials for Mr. Qi, so I have some friendship with Mr. Qi. He likes Mr. Qi's paintings, thinking that anyone who paints like that can make money, but my family was poor at that time, so he asked me to learn from Mr. Qi.
Mr. Qi has an honest and frank side. During the occupation, the National Academy of Arts hired him as a professor. He wrote on the envelope of the letter of appointment? Qi Baishi is dead? Five words, the original letter is returned. A fake policeman wanted to take the opportunity to ask him for a painting, but Mr. Qi sternly refused.
I don't need to say more about Mr. Qi's artistic achievements in painting. I really learned a lot from him, which opened my eyes. For example, he is good at drawing shrimp. I didn't know how to draw until I saw his glowing shrimp with my own eyes. I don't know that he didn't turn his hand, but turned the paper in different directions, and his hand kept drawing in one direction, so it was easier to grasp the strength and feeling of his hand. This is the trick, this is the experience.
What I like best is his works full of childlike interest and local flavor, but some of his theories are strange and I don't quite understand them so far. For example, someone asked? What is the main point of drawing a tree? , he said? Trunks and branches must be straight. See how straight Shi Tao's tree is drawn? , how can it be? Both? Straight man? I can't figure it out now, besides, what he and Shi Tao painted may not be? Both? Straight, so when someone asked me to identify the paintings of Qi Baishi and Shi Tao that he admired, I often joked: This is fake, why? Because the tree is not drawn straight. ?
Mr. Qi once advocated that books are better than paintings and poems are better than books. In my opinion, his poems are really good, but long poems are not as good as short ones. He once presented the manuscript to famous scholars, and Mr. Li compiled a chronicle and anthology for him, and selected some long poems. I think it's better not to choose them. When discussing and writing poems, Mr. Qi sometimes makes some mistakes. For example, he said that Jin Nong's poems were not good, but the words were good. I didn't remember Jin Nong's good lyrics, so I asked him why. He said:? He is a learned man. ? In fact, erudite character is a kind of imperial examination in Qing dynasty, and? Poetry? what's up Words? It doesn't matter. He has a poem for female students, one of which is? Begging for mercy, you have a personal feeling? This is a bit neither fish nor fowl. Although I picked some faults with him here, it doesn't hinder my respect for him. He likes me too. What's my name? Children? , often chanting:? Because of this sentence, I should respectfully address the child as a teacher.
