"Lord Yu Shinan, I think that whether the handwriting is good or not is not the reason for the eternal, but whether a person has status and a good reputation, that is the most important reason why a person's calligraphy can be passed down through the ages." Jingwen said.

Yu Shinan frowned a little, obviously not expecting Jingwen to dare to refute himself as a "post-learner". As a calligrapher, Yu Shinan certainly thinks that good handwriting is the reason for the ages, but Jingwen refuted it, which made him feel that his face had been affected.

"Lord Yu Shinan, whether calligraphy is good or not is secondary. The key is to see if there is anyone to tout for you. Someone touts your calligraphy, and that's what keeps one's calligraphy going through the ages. There are more people in this world who can write well, but why are there so few who are famous? In fact, it is because they have no status, no rights, and naturally no one praises them, so this is the case. If Lord Yu Shinan is not from a scholar family, then I'm afraid you won't be able to get too much praise from people, right? Jingwen said.

When Yu Shinan heard this, he sighed helplessly, he finally understood what Jingwen meant. Jingwen's meaning is very simple, that is, whether a person's talent works can be passed on to future generations, in fact, the main reason is not his talent level. The level of talent certainly affects a person's cultural status, but if no one praises it, then I am afraid that it will not be truly famous.

Since ancient times, calligraphy has been famous for people from great families, especially those who are officials. Even Wang Xizhi, who is known as the sage of books, is not also from the scholar family? If it weren't for the scholars, then no matter how good the handwriting of those poor families is, no one will hold their stinky feet! Therefore, the key to the cultural industry is to be praised by someone, if no one is praised then I am afraid that the words you write will not be famous. This is just like the actors of later generations, if no one picks it up, it will not become popular.

And there are also those who destroy a person's words because of their character. Many corrupt officials in later generations liked inscriptions, but once those corrupt officials were discovered, their inscriptions would be destroyed. If strictly speaking, those people's fonts are still good, some level. But it is because of character that the reputation of culture is ruined. Therefore, what really affects calligraphy is not the font and calligraphy level, but a person's reputation!

"Lord Yu Shinan, you said that after joining for thousands of years, who will remember you?" Jingwen asked.

Yu Shinan was silent, he knew that his calligraphy might not be bad, but after thousands of years, who would remember him? Now it may be the time when Yu Shinan has the highest status, but once there is no one to hold him up, then I am afraid that the people will soon forget him. And now he also has a status in the cultural circle, and the literacy rate of ordinary people is not high, so they will not hear of Yu Shinan's calligraphy.

"Lord Yu Shinan, I have a way to make your future calligraphy no less than Wang Youjun back then." Jingwen said.

"What? How is this possible? Yu Shinan exclaimed.

Wang Youjun is also Wang Xizhi, Wang Xizhi's position in the Chinese calligraphy industry is incomparable, and he is the idol of all those who learn calligraphy. But now Jingwen said that Yu Shinan's status is no less than Wang Xizhi, isn't this ridiculous? Yu Shinan knew that his level could not be compared with Wang Xizhi at all. But Jingwen said so, which made Yu Shinan a little surprised.

Yu Shinan thought for a while, and finally asked, "Do you have any way?" ”

Jingwen heard Yu Shinan's question and immediately knew that Yu Shinan was tempted. In the face of this fame and fortune, how many people can not be moved? I'm afraid that Yu Shinan was also attracted by this fame and fortune, so he cared about this issue. Although he doesn't have Wang Xizhi's calligraphy ability, he also knows that as long as it works well, the hype can be passed down through the ages, making Wang Xizhi's reputation even greater!

"Lord Yu Shinan, if your calligraphy becomes the standard of the people in the world, do you think you can become a person no less than Wang Xizhi?" Jingwen said.

After Yu Shinan heard this, his eyes opened very wide, obviously he didn't expect Jingwen to say this. Even though Wang Xizhi's calligraphy was the best in the world and many people imitated it, it did not become the standard of calligraphy in the world! However, if Yu Shinan's calligraphy can become all the standards for people who study culture in the world, then Yu Shinan's status in the calligraphy world will never change. This is a great reputation, and Yu Shinan is going to be tempted.

"What can you do?" Yu Shinan asked.

Jingwen said: "Lord Yu Shinan, you should have heard that the emperor is going to launch a new type of paper and printed books recently, and the price is only one percent of ordinary books. And then the number of people in the world will increase dramatically, and even everyone in the world will be able to read all of them. When the time comes, countless people will have to learn calligraphy and learn to write. At this time, if you can turn your calligraphy into a template for everyone in the world to learn together, then won't your status come? ”

When Yu Shinan heard this, he was overjoyed! Because Li Shimin's idea of promoting cheap books is already unstoppable, there will be more and more readers in the world. And after reading, it is natural to learn to write, and if Yu Shinan's calligraphy can be turned into a template that everyone in the world must learn, then Yu Shinan is the de facto leader of the calligraphy world. The influence of leaders in any industry is very large, and it can even bring political influence.

And if Yu Shinan's calligraphy becomes imitated by all the readers in the world, then Yu Shinan's status is no less than Wang Xizhi, or even higher than Wang Xizhi. When the time comes, who will say that Yu Shinan is not as good as Wang Xizhi? On the contrary, they will think that Yu Shinan's status is higher than Wang Xizhi, which is a very important place.

Originally, Jingwen hoped to come to Yu Shinan to get some of his calligraphy, which could then be used as a template for engraving, and then printed as a calligraphy. This kind of calligraphy is a good thing for mutual benefit, Jingwen can get wealth, and Yu Shinan can gain a lot of fame, which is very good for Yu Shinan's future.

As a literati, they are very concerned about their reputation, so they all want to write books and speak while they are alive. This is also a problem of Chinese cultural people, and even not only cultural people, but also people in many industries have this problem of wanting to write books and talk about it. Now Yu Shinan has a good opportunity to write a book and speak, and of course he must seize it. Although this is just a copybook, it can be regarded as the influence of its own publication!
