Wang Xianzhi is the seventh son of the famous calligrapher Wang Xizhi. Influenced by his father, he loved calligraphy since childhood. He saw that his father's handwriting was very good, and all the people were copying his handwriting, which was really envious. I don't know when I can become a respected calligrapher like my father.
Once, he couldn't help asking his father, "Dad, why do you write so well?" Wang Xizhi said with a smile, "If you want to know the secret, come to the yard tomorrow morning." The next day, Wang Xianzhi came to the yard early and found that his father had been practicing calligraphy there. When Wang Xizhi saw his son coming, he pointed to the eighteen jars of water in the yard and said, "There is no secret in calligraphy. As long as you finish writing these eighteen tanks of water, the words will be written naturally. "
Deeply inspired, Wang Xianzhi practiced calligraphy day and night. In a blink of an eye, year after year, when he finished writing Eighteen Tanks of Water, he finally became a great calligrapher.
Mao Yisheng is determined to build a bridge.
When Mao Yisheng was eleven years old, he held a lively dragon boat race on the Qinhuai River in Nanjing. He made an appointment with his friends to go to the river and have a good time together. But unfortunately, the night before, he suddenly fell ill and had to stay at home. On Duanyang Festival, Mao Yisheng was lying in bed, but his heart flew to Qinhuai River. How he envies his little friend!
In the evening, my friends came back, listless and in tears. Mao Yisheng is very strange, ask just know, originally something was wrong on the Qinhuai River. Because there were too many people watching the dragon boat, an ancient arch bridge called Wende Bridge collapsed, and many people fell into the river and drowned. Unfortunately, Mao Yisheng looked straight at the ceiling while waiting. After a long time, he said a word: "When I grow up, I must learn to build bridges and build the strongest bridges for everyone!"
From then on, Mao Yisheng's mind was almost occupied by the bridge. Whenever he goes out to see the bridge, he always looks up and down carefully; When you read about the bridge, you will copy it in your notebook immediately. He collected countless pictures and photos of various bridges. Because of this, he also got the nickname "Little Bridge Fan"!
