Chapter 960: Gaining New Insights
Liu? wrote the sentence "Within the four seas, all are brothers" on three pieces of paper respectively. The three kinds of fonts were spread out on the table. The contrast was very obvious. Even Jason and Bang, who had no knowledge of Chinese characters and calligraphy, could see the obvious difference.
She introduced them to the two people at the same time, "The one on the far left is the small seal script I wrote in the video. The small seal script has been used as the common writing system in China since the Qin Dynasty, and it has a history of more than 2,000 years. Therefore, its writing method is relatively complex, mainly with curves. Even Chinese people find it difficult to recognize it now..."
"In the middle is the official script, which developed from the seal script and was popular during the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is similar to the simplified version of the seal script, with curves and arcs gradually turning into straight lines and angles..."
"The one on the far right is Kai Script, which evolved from Li Script and was the most popular font in China's Tang Dynasty. It is more simplified, with straight horizontal and vertical strokes, and is closer to the calligraphy style of modern Chinese characters..."
Liu's explanation was very detailed and without reservation, which was equivalent to giving the two foreigners a popular science class on Chinese calligraphy. Now she is able to work as a calligraphy teacher.
Professor Su once said that calligraphy should not be an art form that ordinary people feel is superior. He hopes that China can bring the flavor of fireworks to the world and be accepted and appreciated by the public. The title of calligrapher is a false name. They should not only study calligraphy wholeheartedly, and they should not become businessmen who turn calligraphy into a means of making money. Therefore, after the auction, Liu rarely sells her works. She follows the instructions of Professor Su, strives to be a good teacher of the school's calligraphy elective course, and founded "Xuewen Tumo" to spread calligraphy culture to the public.
After listening to Liu? 's teachings, the two felt that their horizons had been broadened and they had learned a lot when looking at her calligraphy.
"Chinese culture is so beautiful that it is hard to imagine!" Bang couldn't contain his excitement. Just when he was watching Liu? writing, he wanted to express such emotion, but he was afraid to disturb her. Witnessing the artistic creation of artists with his own eyes, he would also feel a sense of accomplishment. No wonder Liu? became popular on YouTube, it is really extraordinary.
Jason felt the same way, but he had seen Liu's extraordinary qualities, so he was not as surprised as Bang. He said to Bang, "You should listen to her music again. You will feel like you have opened the door to a new world."
...
...
“I heard it on YouTube.”
"The live version is different, but it's a pity that the recording is over," Jason said, "I'll invite you to the next MV."
Bang wanted it very much, he laughed and put his hand on Jason's shoulder, "You are such a brother, I will give you a free bill this time."
Jason glanced at him and didn't bother to say anything. He didn't need the money for the tattoo.
"Have you decided which font to choose?" Liu asked Jason.
Jason stared at the three fonts on the table for a long time. Just like the previous sentence selection, he was entangled again. He turned back to Bang and said, "Give me some reference."
The two men frowned and thought hard.
"I think they're all very good," Bang said.
"I think so too. The seal script looks retro, the official script is cute, and the regular script allows me to see clearly how Chinese characters are written."
"No wonder you want to vote. When there are so many good things in front of you, it really gives you a headache."
"I've never been so embarrassed. Liu? did it."
Jason and Bang were whispering there, and they would probably continue discussing for a while. Liu finally had time to open her phone to see if there were any important messages or missed calls. She also wanted to know how the live broadcast of the "young ladies" was going.
There were no phone calls. At this time, it was already four o'clock in the morning in China, when most people were in deep sleep. However, she had several unread WeChat messages, one from Yu Zhan and one from He Lushen.
