Grandson of national hero Lin Zexu VII; vice president of Lin Zexu Research Committee; domestic director of China Association for the Promotion of Peaceful Reunification; international registered artist; member of Beijing Municipal Ge Zhongshan Calligraphy and Painting Society; deputy secretary-general of calligraphy and art research society of China Yuelian Society.

Majored in calligraphy at Tsinghua University, a postgraduate course in calligraphy.

In 2005, Chief Executive Ho Hau Wah of the Macao SAR Government personally awarded the "Honorary Adviser" of the "Macao Lin Zexu Memorial Hall".

In 2012, in order to commemorate the centenary of the birth of the great proletarian revolutionary Xi Zhongxun, he was invited to participate in the xi Zhongxun calligraphy and painting exhibition, and wrote the calligraphy works of the ancestor Lin Gongze Xu Warning" "'The life and death of the country is to avoid misfortune and happiness because of misfortunes and fortunes", and was selected and received the honorary collection certificate.

In 2017, his calligraphy works participated in the Panama World World Exhibition and won the World Chinese Elite Meritorious Service Award in the art industry.

In 2018, the calligraphy works were selected by the American Postal Group, and the artistic masters on the stamps were printed into the "National Ceremony World Rare Mail" stamp album, which was issued worldwide.

On March 6, 2022, when the two sessions of the National People's Congress were held in Beijing, at the invitation of the Information Office Xinhong.com, the inscription (the name of the Xinhongwang website) at the same time to welcome the 20th National Congress of the Party, was invited to write the ancestral Lin Gongze Xu Quotation Motto (If there is tolerance is great desireless, then gang) the book was given to the deputies of the Two Sessions of the National People's Congress.

Zheng Xuankun's calligraphy style is still vigorous, up to the two Han Dynasties, inheriting Wei and Jin, inheriting ancient laws, innovating calligraphy styles, and changing writing forms, and his works have been recognized and appreciated by well-known enterprises at home and abroad, as well as friends. Zheng Lin's calligraphy works were donated by the China Association for the Promotion of Peaceful Reunification as a gift for calligraphy exchanges between overseas and the Association for the Promotion of World Peace and Development. At the same time, on behalf of the Lin Zexu Research Committee, he traveled at home and abroad, wrote the motto of the national hero Lin Zexu's quotations, and carried out international cultural exchanges.

Han Dynasty calligraphers are far from two or three people in the bibliography, and the records in the books and history classics since the Han Dynasty are more complete and the lines are clearer. After the appearance of lishu at the end of the Warring States period, the Qin Dynasty gradually eliminated the seal book with its own advantages, and by the Han Dynasty, it became the mainstream script common to the public and private, and there was an unprecedented prosperity. Lishu has also become a representative calligraphy of the Han Dynasty. However, the emergence of truly exquisite Lishu works is still the period of Huan and Lingdi at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The main achievement of Han Dynasty calligraphy was the Lishu. But history will never be static, one-way, Chinese characters are still far from developing to a satisfactory pattern, compared with the later and even today's use of the script, the problem of easy in actual use of the book is still not ideally solved, its knots and dot paintings on the excessive decorative components, but also hinder the daily application. Therefore, by the time of the Han and Wei dynasties, the Lishu continued to change, and eventually formed a script that was almost the same as the script we use today (the first work of Wang Cizhong). On the other hand, along with the emergence and use of the Lishu, cursive (chapter grass) inevitably appeared, just as the grass seal (seal book written arbitrarily due to urgency) appeared.

Zhao Yi, a scholar of the Eastern Han Dynasty, once talked about this problem in the "Non-Cursive Book": "At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the punishment was dense, the official books were cumbersome, the battles were attacked and attacked at the same time, the military books were exchanged, and the feathers flew everywhere, so it was grass and tended to be rapid. It shows that in order to use the "rapid", the simpler lishu than the small seal is still not enough, and there is a sloppy lishu due to the growth rate. Because it is a cursive lily, this cursive script also retains the characteristics of the wave, and the characters are independent like the lishu. In order to distinguish it from this grass method, which was later named Zhang Cao, and the continuous and unprovoked grass method that was further changed by the Han and Wei Dynasties and has been used to this day, and which is more convenient, is called Jincao (passed down to Zhang Zhi). It is also necessary to say a few words about the origin of the name of the chapter grass. This issue has always been controversial and there are different theories, but I would like to list one or two: one is because of the style of the book used by Shi You to write the "Urgent Chapter" when Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty; it is also said that because of the later Han Zhang Emperor, Du Dushan's style of writing was used by emperor Zhang, and Emperor Zhang praised it very much, and asked Du Du to use this kind of book style when playing, so the name Zhangcao (the second theory is credible).

According to historical records, the most commonly used xingshu today also appeared at the end of the Han Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty Zhang Huaihuan's "Book Break", it is said: "The person who wrote the case, the later Han Yingchuan Liu Desheng created it, Liu Desheng is the ancestor of the book. However, Liu's writings have not been circulated. I think that like other books, they must be the result of convention, and it can only be because someone has done the work of collecting and sorting at a certain historical moment, in a certain special position. The Han Dynasty was indeed a key era in the history of calligraphy. While taking Lishu as the mainstream, it quietly completed the formation, evolution and stereotyping of the three major calligraphy styles of Kai, Xing, and Imakusa at the end of the Han Dynasty, and initially established the calligraphy pattern that we still continue and use most often today.

Among the scholars of the Han Dynasty, there were many outstanding people. Moreover, the behavior of the bookmaker has received widespread attention from the society, and the value of the bookmaker is also increasingly expensive. Among them, the main writers are: Cui Yu, Du Du (i.e. Du Cao), Zhang Zhi, Cai Yongzhi, and more shi Yiguan, Liang Hu, Liu Desheng and others.
