1, Wang Xizhi
As far as his contribution to the history of calligraphy is concerned, the contribution of the first calligrapher Wang Xizhi is indisputable. Wang Xizhi's contribution lies not only in his superb level, but also in his Preface to Lanting, which is known as "the best running script in the world". More importantly, he created a "new style" and completed the maturity of three calligraphy types: regular script, running script and cursive script.
2. Wang Xianzhi
Wang Xizhi's seventh son, with little fame and brilliant talent, continued to innovate on the basis of his father's new style, creating a "broken book", breaking the direct boundary between running script and cursive script and creating cursive script. He also changed Wang Xizhi's pen-in-hand struggle into external expansion, and created his own "one-stroke calligraphy method", which created a precedent for later generations.
3. Yan Zhenqing
Yan Zhenqing himself was born in a famous family and was good at calligraphy and textual criticism. His family is not only good at calligraphy, but also good at ancient Chinese characters, which laid the foundation for the calligraphy reform in Yan Zhenqing period in the future. Yan Zhenqing is another peak in the history of calligraphy after the two kings. The two kings' calligraphy developed the feminine beauty of China's calligraphy to the extreme, while Yan Zhenqing brought the masculine beauty of China's calligraphy to the extreme.
