Features: Mr. Liu Puqing (1900–1974), the first compiler of this series of standard practice books for regular script calligraphy in the styles of Ou, Yan, Liu, Zhao, Su, Huang, Tang, and the structural practice book, was a distinguished printing and currency expert of the 20th century in China, serving as the national chief engineer. He dedicated his life to the field of art printing and currency. Utilizing over a decade of his spare time, he studied the principles of writing regular script efficiently and quickly based on the calligraphy theories of Chinese calligraphers, and summarized and compiled and published the standard practice books for the Ou, Yan, and Liu styles, as well as the structural practice book for Liu-style regular script. After the "Cultural Revolution," his eldest daughter, Liu Lun, inherited her father's wish to continue compiling standard practice books for other calligraphic styles. Since their public release in 1962, these practice books have accumulated millions of copies in circulation and remain consistently popular among calligraphy enthusiasts and learners to this day.
