This is a calligraphy work written by an 8-year-old primary school student, although the brushwork is immature, but the words are quite legal, and the calligraphy talent can be seen between strokes. This child is Zhang Xiaobo, a gifted baby in Tongchuan City, Shaanxi Province.
Zhang Xiaobo, a child, began to practice calligraphy at the age of 5, practiced 2 hours a week, learned for less than 3 months, he can fluently write Liu Kai, Yan Kai, Lishu and Xingshu four fonts.
Zhang Xiaobo's hard-pen calligraphy works have been published by the "Calligraphy Newspaper" many times, and the national calligraphy examination has passed the eighth level (the highest level is ten). He has won the "First Prize" of the Student Group of the "Hanmo Tongchuan Scholars Campus" of the Tongchuan Primary and Secondary School Teachers and Students Calligraphy and Painting On-site Competition, and the champion of the Shaanxi Provincial Children's Talent Competition (Tongchuan Division).
On April 15, 2018, at the invitation of the famous calligrapher Tian Yingzhang, Zhang Xiaobo and his father rushed to Xi'an, and Tian Yingzhang took half an hour out of his busy schedule to receive zhang Xiaobo, a calligraphy teenager from Tongchuan.
Zhang Xiaobo wrote hard pen and brush calligraphy for teacher Tian Yingzhang on the spot, listened to the teacher's teachings, asked the teacher for calligraphy, and Teacher Tian gave Zhang Xiaobo a signed brush and calligraphy supplies!
After being reported by many media, Zhang Xiaobo successively appeared on Jiangsu Satellite TV's "Great Child" column in 2017, chatted with Meng Fei about Qin history, performed calligraphy, wrote the theme of the party "Happy Chinese Year" with Liu Kai on the stage of Jiangsu Satellite TV's Spring Festival Gala, and sang the song "Country", and in April 2018, he participated in the recording of Shandong TV's "Super Meng Bao Show" program to show his calligraphy wizards.
7-year-old Zhang Xiaobo is not only good at calligraphy, but also loves history, especially likes Qin Shi Huang, who is familiar with the history of the Qin Dynasty, and in 2017, when he participated in the program on Jiangsu Satellite TV, he and the famous host Meng Fei smoothly chatted with each other about the history of the Qin Dynasty and performed calligraphy on the spot.
When Zhang Xiaobo was 7 years old, he won the first prize in the "Jiangxi Lingshan Zhidegong Cup" competition for tens of thousands of people to write the Tao Te Ching. The competition was jointly sponsored by the Shaanxi Provincial Education Calligraphy Research Association and the Xi'an Taoist Association, and was held at the Xi'an Capital City God Temple. The event lasted more than 7 months, with tens of thousands of students from universities, middle schools and primary schools in Shaanxi Province participating, and nearly 1,000 schools participating.
There is no shortage of talented calligraphy children in the calligraphy circle, and many talented children have finally disappeared, in fact, everyone has high hopes. Zhang Xiaobo's father said it very well: a child loves calligraphy, and must not erase his hobbies or erase his nature. Do your best, give him the best environment, and let him grow up healthy and happy! What will happen in the future is not clear to anyone, but the key is the healthy and happy growth of children! We hope that Zhang Xiaobo's calligraphy road will go farther and farther!
