When talking about Chinese calligraphy, we have to mention one person, he is Lin Sanzhi. In the middle of the last century, the relationship between China and Japan gradually eased and they began to communicate. So, Many delegations came to visit China. Once, a calligraphy delegation came to China and asked to see Mr. Lin.
Seeing that the Japanese delegation was so sincere, Mr. Lin not only agreed to meet with them, but also gave them a few calligraphy works. During the meeting with them, in order to show the national prestige of our country and Mr. Lin’s experience in Chinese calligraphy Despite his status in the world, he would sit and shake hands with them. However, they had no objections. In order to see him, the Japanese delegation would accept anything. Even so, they failed to get the old gentleman's calligraphy treasure in the end. As for why, we don't know.
How powerful is Mr. Lin? To be able to be so respected by Japanese people, I have to travel thousands of miles just to see the old gentleman. Mr. Lin is different from other calligraphers. He is a typical late bloomer. When he was young, he was not well-known in China. When he was old, he began to be famous at home and abroad.
As early as when he was three years old, he liked to draw on the desk. When he was five years old, he could sketch independently. This shows that he was very talented in calligraphy. After that, he He began to go to school and learn knowledge from the old gentleman, which laid a solid foundation for his later calligraphy. When he was still very young, he began to help his neighbors write couplets. After entering the Republic of China, Lin Sanzhi also completed During my studies, I started teaching in school, and through this I got to know a group of people with the same interests, and they often studied together.
Although he had certain achievements in the calligraphy world in the first half of his life, his fame was not very good, which was far behind what he was in his later years. However, he never gave up his pursuit of calligraphy and studied everywhere. , he really became famous in his later years. At that time, the country was selecting works for Sino-Japanese calligraphy exchanges. As soon as Mr. Lin's works came out, they caused a sensation in the calligraphy circle. Therefore, the Japanese calligraphy circle called him to see him. Mr. Lin, this work has witnessed the major historical events in calligraphy exchanges between China and Japan. At the same time, it also defended the status of Chinese calligraphy in the world.
Since then, Mr. Lin's status in the calligraphy world has been getting higher and higher. His cursive script is very elegant, completely different from Li Zhimin's style, because the two have completely different styles, and they are located in The directions are also different, so there is a saying of "South Lin and North Li", which is enough to show the status of the two in the calligraphy world.
In addition to calligraphy, Lin Sanzhi has also made great achievements in poetry and ink painting. However, his greatest achievement is still in calligraphy. It is not without reason that he is successful. All successful people are. Due to their efforts, we cannot know their subsequent sadness.
Once, while taking a shower, Lin Sanzhi accidentally burned his whole body, including his fingers. However, he still did not give up calligraphy and continued to create. This was how he became successful later. Therefore, success is reserved for those who never give up and are willing to work hard.
There are many ways for people to fail, but successful people have one thing in common, that is, they are always prepared. We should always learn from these people and learn from their strengths. Like them, we should also regard national affairs as our own affairs and connect the national honor and disgrace with our personal honor and disgrace.
But we can’t think about ourselves in everything. Just like Lin Sanzhi, he can promote our country to the Japanese for the sake of the country’s status, safeguarding our country’s status in front of the Japanese and in the public relations. International status is what each of us has to do. In front of foreigners, we not only represent individuals, we represent more of a country. This is something that we as individuals must be clear about.
