Security guard Xu Yifei calligraphy

Everyone will be familiar with the name sweeping monk. This is a highly respected title for hermits. In all walks of life, everyone can be regarded as sweeping monk, a leader in the industry and a very low-key leader. At the same time, no matter what kind of skills, they need to be accumulated and precipitated through a lot of practice. The story to be told today is such a sweeping monk. He's uncle security. He practiced calligraphy for 40 years, paid more than 2,000 strokes, and finally won the grand prize. He is called the sweeping monk of calligraphy.

-Growing up in the countryside

Uncle Security's name is Xu Yifei. When he was young, his grades were actually very good, but for family reasons, he needed to study while doing farm work. Of course, this has also created his indomitable character, which is relatively good, but he was forced to drop out of school because of his father. His father thought that people, especially children in rural areas, had gained an important skill and had little hope of studying, so Xu Yifei was not allowed to continue studying. Our Xu Fei had to give up studying, but fortunately, Xu Yifei fell in love with calligraphy very early. His father appreciated Xu's calligraphy very much and thought it might be a way out, so he decided to support his calligraphy career and bought him many pens and papers to practice.

-Out of the mountain village

Xu Yifei walked out of this small mountain village at the age of 20, but he didn't pass the exam and went out to work. During this period, he worked as a porter, dishwasher and waiter, but it was not suitable for him to practice calligraphy. By chance, Xu Yifei came to a calligraphy institution as a security guard. This calligraphy institution is unusual. It's Lanting Calligraphy Scenic Area in Zhejiang, where there are many famous calligraphers. Working here, especially as a security guard, has two advantages. One is that you can be influenced by famous calligraphers, and the other is that you have enough time to practice and polish your calligraphy skills. Of course, the most important reason for the success after this is the long-term efforts of the security uncle. Security guards are always there, but efforts are not always there.

-It's been discovered

After 40 years of polishing, Uncle Bao's calligraphy has become more and more perfect. One day, a group of calligraphy lovers came to the scenic spot and wanted to see the famous Lanting calligraphy. Before entering the scenic spot, they found a security uncle writing with water on the street of the scenic spot, so they came to watch with great interest. As a result, when they looked at it, they found that the word was magical, even better than the words written by many famous artists in his mind, so they quickly asked Uncle Uncle, smiled and said, young man, I have been practicing calligraphy for more than 40 years, and because of this, Uncle's deeds have been put on the Internet since then.

-Win the grand prize

He has won many awards in the calligraphy contest and recently won the famous Lanting Award. 40 years of hard work has created uncle's resolute character, and 40 years of hard work has made uncle more modest. He is not proud of winning the prize, but still immersed himself in the world of calligraphy and constantly polished his skills.
