In Zhenping, the hometown of jade carving in Henan, there is a strange man who cleverly combines the beauty of the traditional craftsmanship of jade carving with the artistic beauty of calligraphy and painting, which is iron pen calligraphy and painting. The poems and paintings written on jade are full of far-reaching artistic conception and full of fun. They combine the skills of calligraphy, painting and carving. They are unique and unique in jade carving. He is the "Iron Pen King" Wang Yujing, and every work he creates makes the world marvel. He used an iron pen to write the language of jade, engraving the beauty of the world and the beautiful life. Poetry and Painting on Jade, Life with Iron Pen In Chaopi Town, Zhenping County, there is a strange jade carver, he is Wang Yujing, the "Iron Pen King". Wang Yujing, whose courtesy name is Qushi and whose name is Yuyabo, was born in a family of jade carvers from Guanqiao. Several generations of his family have been engaged in jade carving. He graduated from Chaopi Mongolian Middle School in 1968 and began to engage in jade carving. In 1970, he became a disciple of the famous teacher Mr. Lu Jinlu. He has loved reading all his life and often buys books to study. He is so good at calligraphy that he inscribed the "Chinese Jade Carving Masters Creative Park" at the main entrance of Zhenping County Jade Carving Creative Park in Nanyang.

The small courtyard of Wang Yujing's home is very elegantly decorated, with rockeries, bamboos, osmanthus and bonsai complementing each other, which undoubtedly reveals his literati temperament. The breeze blows slowly, and the bamboo and osmanthus sway, complementing the rockery, and the mood is elegant. His studio is filled with seal and cursive calligraphy works, and a trademark registration certificate issued by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce for "Typen King" is eye-catching. In 1986, Wang Yujing officially began to create iron-pen calligraphy. In 1996, CCTV conducted an exclusive interview with him. Since then, his iron-pen calligraphy and painting have been accepted nationwide. The so-called "iron pen calligraphy and painting" combines jade carving craftsmanship with the art of calligraphy and painting, using special techniques to express the interest of calligraphy and painting on jade, reflecting the cultural connotation of jade carving craftsmanship and improving collection value. Others use water to make jade carvings, but iron pen painting does not require water. The entire process of creating iron pen calligraphy and painting works is completed independently by using an electronic pen. He designs and produces by himself, and there is no way for others to interfere. Moreover, there are no special requirements for raw materials, but the richer the color, the better the effect of the created works. Most of the works are processed with supplied materials, such as Dushan jade, jasper, etc. The creation of iron pen calligraphy and painting integrates calligraphy, painting, and jade carving. The creation process is very difficult, and each stroke is very delicate. If you are not careful, the entire work will fail. Once a mistake is made in ordinary jade carving, it can still be repaired, but there is no chance of repairing it in iron-pen calligraphy and painting. "The biggest difficulty in stylus calligraphy and painting is the artistic conception, light, proportion, and image. Every stroke must be in place. These are all skills." Electronic pen operation is not easy. The speed must be slow and even, unhurried, and grasp the priorities. First, it must be accurate, and second, it must be stable. Most of the works he created make use of the artistic conception presented by the raw materials, and cleverly use pretty colors to conceive. The landscape works he created have profound artistic conception and long charm. Each one is like a dream, and the jade paintings are like fairyland. The most commendable thing is that in today's commercialized society, Wang Yujing's creation is not affected by the outside world and is not limited by time. He creates contentedly every day in the gentle breeze of the bamboo forest and the elegant and leisurely small courtyard.

In order to enhance the artistic and visual effects, the scriptures are also equipped with a statue of Laozi, the author of the Tao Te Ching, an imitation bronze ox statue, a Bagua alchemy furnace, etc., which have extremely high artistic value, ornamental value and collection value. Work: Tao Te Ching "There are no special requirements for materials. The richer the color of the raw material, the better the creative effect." Dushan jade is very colorful.

The works include landscapes, pavilions, boats in the water, shadows in the water, reflections in the water, green trees reflecting in the water... The artistic conception is far-reaching and profound, and poems are included in the works. People swim in the paintings, and their hearts are between the mountains and rivers, feeling at ease and contented. Wang Yujing said, "This is done part by part, from part to whole, and there is no need to make sketches when creating. When making, you need to consider the layout of close and distant views." After carving a painting, you still need to carve it. Poems and texts are included to achieve the effect of both pictures and text, and to add a deeper cultural connotation to the work. If there are no other words, Wang Yujing often composes his own poems to accompany the pictures. Work: Dragon and Phoenix Presenting Auspicious Iron Pen Calligraphy and Painting Should Be Inherited Today, Wang Yujing is 61 years old, and he is still creating tirelessly. Wang Yujing said, "There are no people like me who are still working at such an old age." In his sixties, Wang Yujing's physical strength and eyesight are declining. This craft requires extremely high levels of jade carving, calligraphy, and painting, and it takes a lot of time. It takes a lot of effort, "There are people from all over the country who come to be apprentices, but I don't accept them because they have no foundation. You can learn to draw in three years, but you may not be able to learn calligraphy well in ten years. To do this, you need to master all disciplines." Mastery." In order to prevent this unique skill from being lost, Nanyang Municipal Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection has included the jade carving, calligraphy and painting skills inherited by Wang Yujing's family for generations into county-level intangible cultural heritage protection projects, and hopes to improve the protection standards. At the same time, he applied to register the jade carving, calligraphy and painting skills as the national trademark "Typen King".
