And it had different names： "bulv" in Wu State, "fu" in Yan State, "xing" in Chu State, and "bi" in Qin State. (Mu Xin, 2022, 04)
 After Emperor Qin Shi Huang unified the whole country, the name "bi" became the general name and has been used until now. Legend had it that the brush used today was invented by Meng Tian, a general of the Qin state during the Warring States period. The tip of the writing brush is made of animal fur and the tube is made of bamboo. It is a traditional writing tool and gradually turns into painting tool. Writing brush is also called hao, which can be divided into three types: soft hao, hard hao and mixed hao. The soft hao is made of goat fur, soft and rounded with poor elasticity. The hard hao is made of rabbit spine fur and weasel tail fur, which is elastic but has poor water absorption. And mixed hao combines the soft and hard hao, achieving a balance of suppleness and firmness. And Hu writing brush is regarded as "the crown of all writing brushes". Legend has it that Meng Tian, a renowned general of the Qin State, once lived in Shanlian County, Huzhou, where he refined the brush-making techniques. His creation became known as the "Huzhou writing brush" in later generations. (Yi Dou, 2022, 05)

 .文房四宝概述
 “文房”之名，起于中国历史上南北朝时期，专指文人书房而言。笔、墨、纸、砚合称“文房四宝”，是中国独有的书法绘画工具。中国古代文人基本上都是或能书，或能画，或既能书又能画的，因此它们在古代文人的创作过程中发挥着至关重要的作用。文房用具除四宝之外，还有笔筒，笔架，笔洗，印章，印泥，镇纸等等必备用品。文房四宝历史悠久，文化底蕴深厚，与人们的日常生活及社会生活息息相关，是中国文化的代表。其最著名的产地是安徽宣城。宣城自古是江南名郡，是宣纸、宣笔、徽墨、宣砚的原产地，2004年被中国文房四宝协会授予“中国文房四宝之乡”称号。

 .影响和价值
 “文房四宝”不仅是具有极强的实用价值的文具用品，也是融绘画、书法、雕刻、装饰等为一体的艺术品。在2007年，中国科学院科技史所、中国文房四宝协会，向联合国教科文组织申报笔墨纸砚为世界级“非物质文化遗产”。笔、墨、纸、砚，各有各的用途，各有各的讲究，合起来是整个一套，再写出的文字，综合成为独特的传统书法艺术。它不但为中国自我欣赏，而且深得世界各国人们的瞩目与珍爱。（木心，2022,04）
