1, Wang Wei's talent is early, and his younger brother Wang Jin, who is one year younger than him, was very talented in his childhood. At the age of fifteen, he went to Beijing to take an exam. Because he can write good poems, be good at calligraphy and painting, and have a talent for music, Wang Wei, a teenager, immediately became the darling of princes and nobles in Beijing.

He is very talented in music. There is a story in Tang Shi Supplement: once, a man got a picture of playing music, but he didn't know why he was named after it. Wang Wei looked at it and replied, "This is the first shot of the third colorful feather." Musicians are invited to play, which is exactly the same.

After becoming an official, Wang Wei used his leisure time in officialdom to build a villa at the foot of South Blue Sky Mountain in Beijing to cultivate his body and mind. The owner of this villa is Song Wenzhi, a poet in the early Tang Dynasty. This is a very vast place, with mountains and lakes, Woods and valleys, and some houses scattered among them. Wang Wei and his intimate friends live a leisurely life and live a semi-official and semi-secluded life.

Evaluation of Wang Wei:

There is a saying that "Li Bai is a genius, Du Fu is a native talent and Wang Wei is a talent", and later generations also call Wang Wei Shi Fo. This title not only expresses the Zen and religious inclination of Wang Wei's poems, but also affirms Wang Wei's lofty position in the Tang Dynasty.

Wang Wei is not only recognized as Shi Fo, but also a master of Nanshan literati painting (Qian Zhongshu called him "the first painting in the prosperous Tang Dynasty"). He is also proficient in temperament, good at calligraphy and seal cutting, and is a rare all-rounder

Wang Weishi was famous both before and after his death. History says that "fame is in Kaiyuan and Tianbao, and the nobles and heroes are vain to welcome it, and the kings of Ning and Xue treat it as teachers and friends" (New Tang Book). Tang Daizong once praised him as "the literate sect in the world" (Answer to Wang Weiji, a letter to Wang Jin).

Du Fu also called him "the most beautiful sentence in a full picture book" (the eighth of the twelve poems in Jieboredom). At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Si Kongtu praised it as "interesting and clear, if clear and deep" ("Comment on Poetry with Wang Jia"). In the past, people once praised Wang Wei as "Shi Fo" and compared him with poet Du Fu and poet Li Bai.
