Wang Bi (226249), courtesy name Fu Si (辅嗣), was a Chinese neotaoist philosopher.

His most important works are commentaries on Laozi's Dao De Jing and the I Ching. The text of the Dao De Jing that appeared with his commentary was widely considered as the best copy of this work until the discovery of the Mawangdui texts in 1973.

He served as a minor bureaucrat in the Kingdom of Wei, one of the Three Kingdoms, and was married with a daughter. He died of pestilence at the age of 24.
