Calligraphers' high-level culture. There are several such circles. One is an upright and scholarly calligraphy circle. These people are generally real calligraphers and calligraphy theorists. They are addicted to calligraphy research and theoretical research, can enjoy happiness and get the highest spiritual needs. Every such circle deserves our respect.
The other is honest and earnest managers. In fact, this kind of people have a high level of calligraphy, but compared with the first kind, they value fame and influence more, so they will use their position to spread the calligraphy that they think is the highest level.
The level of calligraphy has a certain foundation, but it has not been recognized enough, or it is impetuous, so I moved my mind to attract attention through some alternative methods, hoping to gain recognition from others in this way. Such people are impetuous, although they have some achievements, but they have not reached the real realm, so they will have all kinds of wonderful ideas. We often say: run first, then learn to walk. Much like this kind of people, they often use their special status to associate with people in the calligraphy circle and get support and recognition from others.
Calligraphers' middle circle culture. There are many middle classes, so we won't delve into them. But there are also some people who are willing to associate with high-level people. By getting the affirmation and recognition of some high-level figures, you can get the qualification to enter the high-level, but qualification alone is not enough, and some other factors are needed. Therefore, most of these people like to pursue fame and gain, through inscriptions, carry out various training courses, issue various certificates, and charge various fees to support their high-level third circle communication conditions. This kind of behavior is often manifested in the form of power rent-seeking, such as the selection of judges and the determination of winners in some calligraphy competitions.
