Remarks of the Jury
This typeface has a distinctive style of bold Lishu, with all the horizontal strokes high in the middle and low at the terminals, with a fast speed and cheerfulness. We'll be curious to see what designers do with Hanzi that have a high number of strokes, and there are errors in the placement of punctuation.
Due to the jury's decision, this typeface has been moved from the A1 Chinese Text Typefaces to A2 Chinese Display Typefaces Category.

The face of the font takes the broadness and flatness of Clerical Script without losing the unity and neatness of Blackletter, and combined with the ultra-thick strokes, the whole gives people a thick and steady impression.
