The Growth System Comes at the Age of Thirty

Chapter 65 Watching the moon on Mid-Autumn Festival night

National History Chen Jingle has seen the Ming Dynasty part.

The popular story starts with a bowl and ends with a tree.

Since he usually reads a lot of historical time travel novels about the Ming Dynasty, Chen Jingle has a better understanding of the development of the Ming Dynasty than other dynasties.

This period of history is interesting to watch.

Although he is not a nationalist, he is still grateful that Zhu Chongba was able to drive out the Tartars and restore China, even if Zhu Chongba later recognized Yuan as Zhengshuo for the sake of legal system.

At the same time, I felt speechless and dissatisfied with Lao Zhu's double standards and personal limitations.

Another example is Emperor Yongle who "even if the Yongle Dadian is compiled into the most wonderful book, history books will not record that he is the successor."

Or maybe I am called the Prince of Heaven, the foreign student from Wala, or the God of War of the Ming Dynasty.

There are also Emperor Wanshou who "trained himself to look like a crane and is not afraid of being strangled by palace maids" and his Ming Dynasty's No. 1 weightlifting champion Xiaoge Lao.

All I can say is that this dynasty is too clumsy.

but!

If you really look down the history books, you will see that a few strokes represent one person's life, or even the lives of hundreds of millions of people. This feeling is still very heavy.

We say we should learn from history, but how many of us actually do it?

It’s difficult to escape from the historical cycle rate!

Throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, there were no surprises in the end, and it became "what happened in the Six Dynasties was just a private plan." In the final analysis, systems were made by people, and they could be abolished in just one sentence.

It is very common for people to die and the government to rest and people to leave and have tea to cool down.

…

Perhaps due to the influence of the content of the history class, Chen Jingle sighed with emotion after it was over. He felt like he wanted to talk but didn't know who to talk to.

So, he thought for a while and took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

These are the learning supplies I purchased earlier.

It just so happens that the next step is the practical class, so let’s just write!

"Since it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's write a poem to suit the occasion." Chen Jingle looked at the moon outside the window, pondered for a while, and then he had the answer.

Dip in ink and swipe!

"Watching the Moon on the Fifteenth Night·Wang Jian"

"Crows roost in the white trees in the courtyard,

The cold dew wets the sweet-scented osmanthus silently.

Tonight the moon is bright and everyone can see,

I don’t know whose home Qiu Si fell into. "

Signature: Chen Jinngle, Mid-Autumn Festival, Jiachen Year

Don't say it, really don't say it.

When the mood comes up, what I write is different from usual.

A feeling of agility yet arrogance emerges vividly on the page.

It was said before that Chen Jingle learned calligraphy in the system knowledge class. In fact, he mainly studied rice fonts, but he also dabbled in calligraphy fonts from other famous artists.

Chinese calligraphy is usually inseparable from Erwang, Mi Fu and Yan Zhenqing.

These four people have been hailed as T0-level calligraphers by literati of the past dynasties. Others, including Su Shi, Huang Tingjian, Zhao Mengfu, Dong Qichang, etc., are slightly inferior.

Chen Jingle's calligraphy is based on Mi Fu's calligraphy, absorbing the strengths of other famous calligraphers, and finally blending it with his own writing habits, mainly running script.

The main theme is to do whatever you want, whatever makes you feel comfortable!

The painting "Looking at the Moon on the Fifteenth Night" in front of me is a walking style.

The structure of Tang Dynasty language is the same as that of Song Dynasty.

It may not be close to establishing a sect, but compared to today's people, at least it can be said that it has entered the family.

Calligraphy style has a lot to do with the personality of the person writing it.

If it were Chen Jingle in the past, he would not be able to write such characters. In the local dialect, "writing is like chicken feet scratching sand." Although it is an exaggeration, it is not really beautiful. At most, it is good-looking when you write seriously. correct.

It has always been a regret in his heart that he could not write well when he was studying.

Later, under the guidance of the system, I studied calligraphy many times, and then I gradually learned to write good calligraphy.

Now it can be said that it has a certain style.

Agility is the elegant path that Xingcao takes, while arrogance is related to the system. After all, he is a systematic man. It is abnormal to be less arrogant and more arrogant.

It's just that Chen Jingle's madness is not written on his face.

Besides, he is a somewhat arrogant person to begin with, otherwise why would he quit and run away after breaking up with his partner.

“Really well written!”

Chen Jingle is quite satisfied with his work.

In a sense, it is a small milestone in his calligraphy. His style and techniques are more advanced than before.

…

Seeing this, Chen Jinngle worked hard, dipped in ink and wrote another article. Or poetry.

This time it is a modern work, and it is also an ancient poem that he likes very much.

"Ode to History·Li Mengtang"

"When the clothes are hung in the high pavilion and the cauldron is adjusted,

It's a pity that there are criticisms in the world.

The water that overturned the boat was the tears of the common people,

You don’t know if you don’t come to Hengliu. "

Same signature.

It can be considered to be in line with his insights from studying the history of the Ming Dynasty.

This time I used Zhao Mengfu’s style of running script. While the overall style is wild, the strokes of the writing also give people a sense of depression and sadness.

Oh~

Why should I imitate those ancient people who had no talent and no way to serve their country?

Chen Jingle shook his head.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

"But to be honest, I feel like this article is better than the last one. Have I made such great progress?"

Even Chen Jingle himself was a little surprised.

…

When it comes to calligraphy quality, there is actually no unified standard.

But there will be a minimum standard.

On the basis of this minimum standard, each dynasty has its own aesthetics. The unique beauty of Chinese characters is completely different from other carriers.

Good or bad is actually a very subjective judgment.

Even top calligraphers will have different opinions, but most of them can be judged from the aspects of craftsmanship, naturalness, emotion, innovation, and character.

Among the famous masters of the past dynasties, the one who admired craftsmanship the most was undoubtedly Zhao Mengfu.

He believes: "There are two things in learning calligraphy, one is the brushwork, and the other is the shape of the characters. The brushwork is not perfect, although it is good, but it is still bad; the shape of the characters is not wonderful, even if you are familiar with it, it is still fresh. If you can understand this in learning calligraphy, then you can call it."

But that's not always the case.

For example, "The Manuscript of Memorial to My Nephew" is known as the second best running script in the world. Among the three major running scripts, it has the most alterations and the most sloppy writing. However, its sincere emotions overflow from the writing, making everyone who has read this calligraphy work fall in love with it. Such a shock.

The mainstream in the past has pursued nature more, which is the state of returning to nature that was widely praised in ancient times.

Innovation is like Zhang Cao and Shou Jin, and character is like Cai Jing and a certain modern person who has outstanding calligraphy skills but whose name cannot be said.

But Chen Jingle believes that as long as he thinks he looks good, even if he looks good. As long as you are not participating in competitions or exhibitions.

Good calligraphy means that no matter what font you use to write, it will give the public a feeling of beauty. Even if you can't understand what's written, you can still see the strong formal beauty on paper.

For example, Cai Xiang's "Athlete's Foot Notes".

Some people may say that there is a difference between art being art and being beautiful.

But Chen Jingle feels that art should also serve the public. At present, in order to gain status, some people are taking the ugly, weird and crazy route, which somewhat deviates from the original intention of calligraphy.

Calligraphy refers to writing according to the characteristics and meaning of text, using its calligraphy style, structure and organization to make it a beautiful work of art.

rich! have! beautiful! feel!

Without these four words, ugly for the sake of being ugly, weird for the sake of being weird, there is no need to talk about calligraphy.

Not as good as Kun Ti.

There is such an evil trend in the domestic calligraphy circle now. Not to mention all, at least part of it. If you are a boss, a retired senior cadre, or a direct disciple of a certain master, your handwriting is good.

on the contrary!

If you are a farmer or a worker, then you are just a person with no charm, or you will be directly judged as a quack.

Similarly, there are poetry circles, folk art circles, etc. Chen Jinngle at the national level is not sure, but he has seen many at the provincial and municipal levels.

Anyway, no matter what the industry field, as long as you are involved in the circle, fame and fortune will inevitably be involved, and business will blow off each other.

If you don't pursue any social status, just treat it as a hobby and write casually, which is fine.

If you really want to make progress, you have to look at your status and where you are as a scholar.

…

After finishing the two pieces of calligraphy, Chen Jingle felt as if his depression had been swept away.

Take a long breath.

I couldn't help but take out my phone, take a photo, and send it to Moments.

This is a rare thing. The last time he posted on Moments was the last time.
