Chinese characters, an important carrier of Chinese civilization, are now facing the dilemma of "forgetting to write a pen" and "wearing a crown". The popularity of intelligent speech recognition technology has made it more difficult to write Chinese characters. A news that a college student scored only 2 points in a Chinese character dictation competition was widely fermented on the Internet, causing heated discussions among the public. It can be seen that it is urgent to improve the people's ability to write Chinese characters in a standardized manner.

Chinese characters are not only an important symbol of the excellent traditional Chinese culture, but also an important basis for conveying information. Standardizing the use of Chinese characters is not only a necessary move to maintain cultural roots and cultivate cultural identity, but also a necessary move to show China's image and tell Chinese stories well.

In recent years, the development of information technology has brought about the wide application of computer Chinese character fonts, and the styles of fonts are more diverse, which better meets the diverse needs of the society. However, the emergence of some "ugly books" and "strange books" information-based font products deviates from the writing norms, cultural connotations and aesthetic tastes of Chinese characters, misleading the public, especially young people, and must be regulated.

To this end, the State Press and Publication Administration and the State Administration of Radio and Television jointly issued the "Notice on Carrying out Special Rectification Work on the Non-standard Use of Chinese Characters in the Press, Publication, Radio and Television Fields", requiring a comprehensive self-examination and clean-up of the use of Chinese characters in publications, television and online audio-visual programs, and improving the quality of content.

Chinese characters carry profound Chinese culture and thought, and standardizing the use of Chinese characters and appreciating the beauty of Chinese characters is not only the meaning of maintaining cultural roots and cultivating cultural identity, but also a necessary move to show China's image and tell Chinese stories well. Therefore, we must strengthen the standardized use of Chinese characters and guide all sectors of society to correctly understand and use Chinese characters through various means. Only in this way can the Chinese characters with a sense of the times shine and the ugly and funny expressions lose their place. Let us work together to promote the standardization of Chinese characters, create a good social environment, and promote the square Chinese characters that carry Chinese wisdom to endure and move into the future.
