Can you become a calligrapher by doing only one thing and concentrating on calligraphy all your life?

Wen Li Dongsheng

My friend's son is enviable.

Graduated from a prestigious school and worked in a good unit.

I suddenly resigned some time ago and wanted to specialize in calligraphy.

The pace of big cities is too fast, and office workers work hard and are under great pressure.

Leaving your job, starting a business, begging for help everywhere, and thinking about it is all in a cold sweat.

What about calligraphy? It takes millions for a celebrity to write a few words.

With luck, hundreds of millions are possible after many years.

The writing cost is low.

You can operate in the corner alone.

Employment, begging, capital, market.

Forget about taxes, social security, and all the difficulties of starting a business.

Don't look at people's faces, don't be disturbed by the customs of sex.

How nice.

I'm so smart. I've been a bully for many years. It's not too difficult to learn calligraphy, is it?

Not for a year, not for ten or twenty years.

It's better to be poor and bitter now, and have something to boil out.

Bitter places and bitter children, we come from a small mountain village in the hinterland of Taihang Mountain.

Friends do coolies and bricklayers support their families.

Finally, I trained the son of a college student and settled in a big city.

But to understand this, when the father is at a loss.

Afraid of shame, but afraid to say.

Wechat only sent me a son's calligraphy work and asked if it was good.

I looked at it. This is not your son's work.

This is Zhang Jizhi's great calligraphy.

I didn't say that, only that my son's handwriting is good.

I added a friend's son's WeChat, and I said I want you to help me with one thing.

You know the calligrapher Wu Ju. I want to buy a copy of his copybook. There should be big bookstores in Beijing.

Our hometown is not in this small city.

My son wrote back soon, saying that he knew where it was.

I don't know why. Wu Ju is not famous, but someone has to find his calligraphy.

My son said that Wu Ju is the most like Mi Fei.

Everyone who studies Chinese characters wants to learn Wu Ju.

Without reading the signature or seal, you can't tell whether it was written by Wu Ju or Mi Fei.

I said, there is still a gap, and I didn't write "middle ridge" again.

The son said, uncle, you know.

I said, I don't understand, but some calligraphers' friends listen to them.

Send you some words they wrote.

Some of them like Zhang Jizhi.

This topic entered Mi Fei, Wu Ju and Zhang Jizhi.

I want to say that Wu Ju has been learning from one person all her life and living in the shadow of Mifei.

Zhang Jizhi, who studied rice, won the title of Southern Song Dynasty in the martial arts.

In fact, both Wu Ju and Zhang Jizhi.

This is a success.

The words of these two men have been preserved in later generations.

But it is not easy to learn calligraphy from them.

It is not easy to be a calligrapher.

It is more difficult to be a professional calligrapher.

In ancient times, few calligraphers were professional.

Mi Fei's fascination with calligraphy is pure, but he is not a professional calligrapher.

If anyone is, it is only Deng.

Deng was a calligrapher since he was a child.

There are not many people who make a living by calligraphy now.

Young man, there is almost nothing.

I want to say that it is difficult for the calligraphy church to produce calligraphers.

People who take calligraphy as their major and make a living from it are mostly calligraphers.

Throughout the ages, in our hearts.

In the public mind, only a few people can really become calligraphers.

Calligraphy is a master.

Kung fu is more than words.

Without long-term accumulation, profound knowledge and profound cultural accomplishment.

Extraordinary experience, extraordinary understanding.

Don't understand this era.

Only attack calligraphy, you only learn calligraphy skills.

Even if you succeed in martial arts and Zhang Jizhi, the pattern is not high.

Besides, this era, not that era, you can't learn without that environment.

I want to say that a person's life is more about living for others.

It took generations of efforts to get you out of the mountains.

You can't just live for yourself.

I want to say that a person's growth is inevitable.

The living are suffering, solving all kinds of contradictions and facing all kinds of difficulties.

I want to say too much.

But I thought a lot, but I couldn't say it.

My friend's son said that.

He wants to forget about it.

It was just like this before, and it didn't really happen.

He knows I'm his father's lobbyist.

It's a good thing you don't nag like dad.

Can talk about calligraphy with me on an equal footing, without preaching.

I know the thoughts of your generation too well.

Our generation is not so bound by you.

If you worry too much, you can do nothing.

It seems that my friend's son is right.

Every generation has its own way of life.

Every generation is stronger than the next.

This is how human beings developed.
