I think it's official script. If we look at the development of Chinese characters from a historical perspective, there is no doubt that the day when official script appears on the historical stage of Chinese characters is a watershed in the development of Chinese characters. The official script is on the Chinese character stage, with the ancient script in the past on one side and the modern common script in the future on the other. Official script is between the past and the future of Chinese character development, which is of great significance in the history of Chinese character development in China. Before the official script, it was changed to be purely official based on the seal writing system. Li Shu got rid of the tail of the text schema
Li Shu used symbols to separate the writing system of Chinese characters from the ideographic system, which gave birth to the formation and reform of modern ordinary Chinese characters in China. In the history of calligraphy or the development of Chinese characters, it is also called the watershed between ancient and modern Chinese characters. There is a traditional saying in China that Chinese characters are pictures. From the chaos in the late Warring States to the gradual dignity and elegance in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the development process of official characters is relatively long, which occupies an important position in Chinese characters, with a large number of widely used numbers, but the real standard Chinese characters? Xiao zhuan? But behind the scenes. The existence of this phenomenon fully conforms to the following fact:
Running characters are the most popular fonts based on conventional characters in the system, after running characters and cursive scripts. The difference is that the conventional script is not behind the scenes like Xiao Zhuan, but the most popular font is still running official script, and writing Chinese characters is based on efficiency. Under the seal script system, the official script is of course the most effective writing method, and the official script is history. In fact, it has become history since the Tang Dynasty.
But becoming history does not mean becoming a complete past, a formal official script, which we still use today. For example, in our newspapers, magazines, news TV and mobile phones, there are official script fonts, and the artistry of official script is still very attractive. In our modern Chinese characters, the reason why the official script is still valid is that it is the closest type to the conventional script. ?
