I got to know Mr. Niu Wei because of an artist's pen meeting. His calligraphy works are rich, natural, elegant and beautiful, which amazed all the calligraphers attending the meeting. We admire Mr Niu's unique understanding of calligraphy, profound knowledge of China culture and artistic perspective of media personality after the pen meeting.
The calligraphy "Hongyun Tiancheng" was collected by Mr. Shi Zhihong, former deputy director of the Central Policy Research Office.
Through the conversation, we know that Niu Wei is not only a calligrapher with new strength, but also a senior media person. He often interviewed famous painters and wrote critical articles for them, and gradually became an amphibious well-known cultural figure in the field of painting and calligraphy. Because he devoted himself to writing, he was deeply touched. His prose of painters and calligraphers was highly praised by readers and calligraphy lovers, and at the same time he made friends with countless painters and calligraphers, making their paintings and calligraphy works and himself widely circulated. Asked about the reasons for practicing calligraphy, Mr. Niu Wei said that when he was young, he was influenced by his uncle who was the secretary of the brigade, so he imitated calligraphy. Whenever Chinese New Year is over, my uncle always writes Spring Festival couplets and sends them to the villagers. He writes them with my uncle and sends them together. Although the work was still so immature at that time, the villagers liked it very much. Sticking it on the door always made him happy for half a month. Since then, the interest in calligraphy has taken root in Teacher Niu's heart.

As a teenager, under the influence of his uncle, Mr. Niu Wei began to like and copy the works of the two kings, especially Wang Xizhi's Preface to the Lanting Pavilion, which he repeatedly observed and posted, and could not put it down. Although young people have a heavy academic career when they are studying, they often forget to imitate writing brushes even when they use pens. After work, especially in journalism, responsible for cultural and educational reports, I have the opportunity to contact many painters and painters. It was because of this contact that he fell in love with calligraphy even more deeply when he was near Zhu Zhechi. No matter how busy he is now, he has to create calligraphy, which makes him feel unhappy and uncomfortable. So he wrote for more than 20 years. In addition, he often meets and talks with famous calligraphers such as Shen Peng, Zhang Hai, Gongda Yan, Li Yan and Yan Zhijiang. And humbly ask for advice from many famous calligraphers, so that he has his own unique understanding and experience of calligraphy.
At a pen meeting, Mr. Yan Zhijiang, the grandson of Yan Zhenqing, a great calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, and a famous contemporary calligrapher, observed Mr. Niu Wei's calligraphy creation on the spot, and happily high-fived and praised: "Niu Wei's calligraphy works are natural and elegant, gentle and elegant, yet natural and elegant, with rich brushwork and natural interest. If you can stick to your own style and dig deeper, you will surpass me in a few years at most. " At the same time, Teacher Yan Zhijiang insisted on accepting Niu Wei as an apprentice.
The calligraphy work "Biography of the Sea" was presented to the brother of the Propaganda Department of Beijing Municipal Committee.
Indeed, looking at Niu Wei's calligraphy creation is simply an unrestrained Wang Yang, a hearty feeling, and a spiritual and visual enjoyment. His works are fresh and refined, eclectic, natural in atmosphere, not seeking concreteness, but learning from the past without mud. Often where the pen goes, it is basically in accordance with the state of mind, pen and ink into paper, that is, the book is written, without hesitation, laughing freely, calligraphy is natural!
As a famous calligrapher and senior reporter, Mr. Niu, his frankness and self-confidence deeply touched us! Looking at his calligraphy, or walking in the clouds, or playing the piano, or flying with lofty sentiments, there are no fetters. What attracted Mr. Niu Wei most at the pen meeting was not only his elegant and unrestrained works, but also his sunny smiling face and intoxicated state when he wrote his works. That is the most infectious expression of true feelings, and it also deeply shows Mr. Niu's love for calligraphy.

Mr. Sun Jusheng, a famous master of Chinese painting and "Elvis Presley", was fond of collecting calligraphy "The Virtue of the Four Seas" before his death.
As the saying goes, words are like people. As a humble and promising calligrapher, his mentality, his state and even his demeanor will be wonderfully integrated into the pen and ink. Observing his calligraphy, you will find and enter the writer's inner world. Niu Wei's calligraphy is like this. When we stop to appreciate, we will be unconsciously brought into his writing situation. It is really a wonderful realm of unspeakable artistic experience, full of incomparable comfort and enjoyment.
In life and work, he is very modest, makes friends with his heart and treats others sincerely. Mr. Niu Wei has always believed that a word is like a person and a word is like a character, and he upholds the artistic concept of calligraphy that "my calligraphy is my heart". Niu Wei, who has a good relationship with others, has always kept a low profile. Although she has rich media resources, she is always reluctant to promote herself. Because he thinks that his calligraphy has not reached the level and realm he requires, he often tells his calligraphy and painting friends and media colleagues around him, "For calligraphy and articles, I don't want fame and fortune to float to princes. I hope that every word and article will be worthy of my heart. I am grateful to many old friends in the media who want to write articles for me, but I still have to refuse my friends' kindness again and again. Because I know that the waves are hollow, and I know that I am not good to myself and others, I will, as always, do things silently, study silently, devote myself to the profound art of calligraphy, observe the world calmly, accumulate my life feelings, sharpen my mind and enhance my endurance. Only in this way can I accumulate energy to break through myself and truly realize the calligrapher's dream! "

The calligraphy "Thinking of Jiangnan" was collected by Li Youcun, former Minister of Industry of People's Daily Group.
As a literati, Mr. Niu Wei is not only distinctive in personality, but also an open-minded and enterprising person. His calligraphy not only inherits the tradition, but also innovates constantly. He attaches great importance to learning and draws on the strengths of a hundred schools of thought. I often use my spare time to visit famous artists, learn, discuss and comprehend excellent pen and ink skills and experience excellent writing rules. At the same time, I also humbly ask my fellow calligraphers for calligraphy. As a powerful calligrapher and a senior media person, he is kind, open-minded and low-key, and makes friends, even regardless of seniority, but any speculation about fate will make friends. It is precisely because of Mr. Niu Wei's large pattern, wide vision and good communication with calligraphers of different styles and schools that he can quickly become unique in calligraphy!
Talking about the future creative road, Niu Wei said that he is only an athlete on the road of calligraphy art. On the basis of learning from the famous calligraphers of his predecessors, he should seek advice, study and create more, adhere to his natural and rich artistic concept, pursue a comprehensive and eclectic calligraphy style, make efforts to explore and make various writing attempts, and strive to contribute himself to more people from all walks of life who like him as soon as possible.
