Wang Guoxian commented on Su Shi in "Revisiting Danxian Chronicles", "With the teachings of poetry, etiquette and music, he transformed his customs and changed his people's hearts. "Scale Armor, Ten Thousand Valleys Sounding and Sheng Bells" is the poetic realm of the Southern Wilderness."
Dong Qichang wrote a famous postscript: "Mr. Dongpo's poem is a change of Chu Sao; This book is a change of "Lanting". This is the ultimate principle of Song Dynasty writing." This is the most profound and noble evaluation of Su Shi's "Chibi Fu" and his calligraphy.
