Professor Qiu Zhenzhong, doctoral supervisor, director of the Chinese Calligraphy Association, deputy director of the Calligraphy Learning Committee, has been engaged in modern calligraphy teaching for a long time. Some people think that Qiu Zhenzhong's writing style is simple, academically rigorous, and his arguments are full of wisdom. He speaks very interestingly and has a good sense of humor. In his soft language, there are frank judgments and firm positions.

Recently, Qiu Zhenzhong put forward a series of insightful views on calligraphy. He pointed out: "Calligraphy is based on its form. For three thousand years, if you want to express new artistic conception, you must change. "However, once it changes, most people will not adapt!"

The "change" he mentioned was to abandon traditional calligraphy and create a new kind of writing. However, people who love traditional calligraphy cannot accept this reality.

Why can't they accept it? Qiu Zhenzhong said, "They are accustomed to the things that happened 3,000 years ago, and they are full of nostalgia for history! They don't need any new performances. But I have to write something new. If I don't make a name for myself, I won't be able to pass this test, and my life will be in vain!" This shows how much Qiu Zhenzhong hates the calligraphy tradition, or in other words, if he doesn't reform, his life will be in vain!

Qiu Zhenzhong is a controversial calligrapher, who has received more praise than praise, not only because his calligraphy is difficult for the world to accept, but also because his calligraphy philosophy is difficult for people to accept. Qiu Zhenzhong responded to outside criticism, "What qualifications do others have to criticize me?" In other words, Qiu Zhenzhong feels that he is more modern than the previous 3,000 years of calligraphy works!

Why is he so confident? Qiu Zhenzhong said, "If an art cannot escape the shadow of history for a long time, it will slowly become a tradition. So he hates traditional calligraphy very much, thinking it is a kind of inheritance, a dead thing. A dead tradition will not have life unless it is activated.

Qiu Zhenzhong expressed his own opinion: "If we can learn something from this place and integrate it into our current life, then our calligraphy career will be bright! I think that people in the future have no reason not to like this art. The key lies in whether we can do it! The key lies in whether we are sure!"

Some netizens pointed out that the brilliance of Qiu Zhenzhong's argument lies in the fact that he pays more attention to examining the history of calligraphy from the perspective of philosophy and concepts, and penetrates into the essence of calligraphy art through the layers of clouds on the surface of calligraphy.
