Nicky Wu Shows Off His Calligraphy Skills for Elle China

Nicky Wu has been filming a C-drama recently but he’s managed to find time to do interviews and promotions for Bu Bu Jing Xin here and there. Elle China recently interviewed him and did a photospread that I found totally perfect. I love the elegantly cut black suit and Nicky doing calligraphy for the pictures. He actually wrote the characters that are shown, and I’m impressed with his genuine talent at the art of writing. I suck mainly because I have zero patience, and calligraphy is all about the patience. Not just practice, but a patience in how each word flows from the strokes of the ink brush. As for these pictures, Nicky continues to look better and better, almost like BBJX just revitalized his entire being and he’s back being awesome and gorgeous. I can’t explain how he makes holding an ink brush hella sexy.

Nicky wrote this rather melancholic poem. I find his writing more precise and less powerful than how male calligraphers typically write, but with quiet restraint that shows control. You know, he writes just like how I imagined 4th Prince to write.

  • What a great concept for a photo shoot. Much more interesting than some angsty, strangely-defined, "zombie businessman goes to work" kind of concept. It's nice to see something with a little meaning.

  • ahhh~~~ =D so happy to see the full article here~~ thank you so much Ms. Koala!! Also I've been going crazy trying to find the BBJX novel online so I can read it for myself. Can you please let me know where you read yours or did you purchase the novel itself?

    I don't think calligraphy always need to be bold and powerful at all =] and Nicky's is beautiful-- a sturdiness that comes with a gentlemanly elegance

    thanks for a new BBJX, I've been haunting your site for more lol ^___^

      • lol i've been following that too, they have such awesome translations... I'm deliberating on the possibility of collabing with them cuz I like translating too hahahaha...
        I also went searching for online chinese version... all the way up to Chpt 29... and then I couldn't find any more! (like chapters 30-42? plus the epilogues...) i was so heartbroken T-T lol

  • *dies from too much heart palpitations*

    how can you not translate the poem??? pleaseeeee please please tell me what he writes... PLEAAAAASEEEE!!!!!

    I might as well delete all the songs in my itunes, since the one I've been listening is only "Three inches of Heaven" in constant repeat. And you know what I'm thinking about while listening to that song. 4-RX momentss... >.< I'm so gone. Lost cause this one. *point to self*
