Appreciation Of Master Fan Xian'S Calligraphy In "Celebrating More Than Years"

The hit drama "Celebrating More Than Years" in 2019 is a costume drama about intrigue and palace fighting.

A mysterious young man played by Zhang Ruoyun, starting from a small coastal town, experienced all kinds of changes in his family, the world, and the court, and finally completed his "cultivation" and gained control of his own mind.

Since it is a costume drama, Fan Xian inevitably has to write two strokes. However, the actor Zhang Ruoyun did not have the conditions to attend a calligraphy training class when he was a child. His handwriting could not pass the eyes of director Sun Hao, so he was abandoned.

Below are Zhang Ruoyun’s words, please share them:

How about it? This calligraphy, haha, is calligraphy with a brush...

There were some hesitations here and there, but no proposal was frustrated...that's all. It can be said that in the eyes of insiders, this word is really not on the table.

So the director found a calligrapher, went through various screenings, and finally settled on the calligraphy that Fan Xian was holding. 

At first glance, the calligraphy of Zibi seems to be calm! However, upon closer inspection, it turns out that this unknown great god is indeed pretty good.

This song "Ascend the High" by Lao Du of the Tang Dynasty:...Wanli memorizes words and is often a guest, and a century-old ice poison appears on the stage...Although there are typos in it, "ice" is actually "ill alone"...The wrong word is not good, but the word Not bad!

Let's look at this calligraphy. It looks cute and childish on the surface, but it is actually written in an official style. Although the strokes are slightly slender, they are not weak. The layout is continuous and clear. The word knot is just like all the living beings in the world, tall, short, fat, thin, beautiful and strange, each with its own appearance. The whole style is in pursuit of "childishness". This is the realm pursued by people who have reached a certain level of writing.

People say: There are three realms of tea ceremony - thirst, drinking and tasting. This calligraphy is a calligraphy that can be appreciated; this is a calligraphy that has been cultivated; this is a calligraphy that has been cultivated to a certain level.

This calligraphy seems to be in line with the original intention of Fan Xian, a young man from the border town, who "is as far away from the dust as a wild crane, and his heart is as clear as an icy lake."

By comparing the two paintings, you can see that there is a completely different difference between those who have practiced calligraphy and those who have not!

Let’s go back and take a look at Zhang Ruoyun’s performance. It can be said that his performance is basically a beginner. Acting is the same as writing and painting, it requires skills and methods. The next higher level is Tao. You also need to have life experience and experience. With all these things together, I have almost become an actor.

I really hope that our idol star Xiao Fan Xian will have a wider acting career and improve his calligraphy!
