Is it necessary to write traditional Chinese characters in China in the network age? In a survey of 2529 people organized by CCTV, 82.8% of netizens think that "compulsory examination of writing ability is good for students' development";
83.4% of netizens think that "students should improve their writing ability", which can "develop China's writing art and show people's quality only by writing well".
Wang Yusheng, member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and vice chairman of the Beijing Association for Science and Technology, said in a CCTV program on the evening of 14 that Chinese characters are a kind of culture and art and a combination of practicality and aesthetics. Chinese characters are not poems but have the charm of poetry, but have the beauty of painting without painting and the rhythm of dancing without singing. Regarding the importance of writing Chinese characters well, he also took one of his graduate students as an example, saying that when applying for a job in Japan, the cover letter must be written in person, which is very helpful for admission.
Pang Zhonghua, who is known as "the first person in hard pen calligraphy in China", said in an interview that writing Chinese characters can cultivate interest, cultivate the mind and make people develop the habit of being careful and patient. Written words are different from those printed by computer. Handwritten words are interesting and represent a person's mind. Young people should not neglect the writing of Chinese characters.
