After a lot of publicity, the originally unknown "Tangshan Big Brother" began to make the people of Xiangjiang look forward to it.

On June 1, 1970, "Tangshan Big Brother" began to be fully released in Shaw Brothers theaters, due to the publicity in place, the scale of the screening was nearly doubled compared with the original time and space, and the picture quality and excitement far exceeded the original time and space, so the results achieved have also improved a lot, as for the degree of sensation, there is no need to say too much. Li Xiaolong can be said to have become the top star of Xiangjiang overnight.

After becoming famous, Li Xiaolong is like a big piece of fat, attracting almost all the media in Xiangjiang, whether it is good or bad, as long as it is about Li Xiaolong, it can make the newspaper sell well. It can be said that Li Xiaolong has fed almost half of the media reporters in Xiangjiang recently. According to Li Xiaolong's original temperament, he is very willing to put himself in front of the public as a hero idol, but now that he has the opportunity to practice martial arts, everything else is like a floating cloud to him, just like during the filming of "Tangshan Big Brother", Ding Pei has expressed his favor to him more than once, but he has been rejected by Li Xiaolong, and his mind is now all devoted to martial arts, even if there is some remaining time Li Xiaolong has spent on learning to perform, after all, he always feels very faceless when Li Ping'an complains.

"Big Brother Tangshan" has reached more than 4.5 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office in less than three weeks after its screening in Xiangjiang, and it is not a problem to exceed 5 million and become the No. 1 in Xiangjiang. In private, Shao Yifu, Fang Menghua and Zou Wenhuai are extremely excited, because the cost of the film is less than one million Hong Kong dollars including the cost of post-publicity, and the three of them originally wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase and let Li Xiaolong start filming the next film immediately, but Li Xiaolong refused on the grounds that he needed to learn acting, which made Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai very dissatisfied but helpless, Fang Menghua knew that Li Xiaolong was messing with his son at the moment, so Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai intended to let her advise Li Xiaolong, but she didn't answer.

After filming "Tangshan Big Brother", Li Xiaolong began to practice the ancient Wing Chun with Li Ping'an, Li Xiaolong was originally obsessed with martial arts, plus he had a certain Wing Chun foundation, and his talent was also high, and he learned the ancient Wing Chun cultivation method, playing style and mental method in less than two months.

On this day, in Li Ping'an's half-mountain villa, Li Xiaolong rested at half past six after the drill, Li Ping'an looked at Yun Yunshu on the side, "I have finished teaching the boxing, you don't have to come over every day in the future, just follow the daily practice I teach you, remember what I told you, don't give it to others, and don't tell others that I taught you." ”

Li Xiaolong was a little speechless and stopped, "Then if I encounter problems with martial arts practice in the future, can I still consult you?"

Li Ping'an knew what Li Xiaolong meant, which was nothing more than expressing his hope that Li Ping'an would teach him some other martial arts skills, and people's desires were endless.

Li Ping'an looked at Li Xiaolong with a deep smile, a powerful momentum almost suppressed Li Xiaolong's breathlessness, and waited until Li Xiaolong was sweating profusely and almost knelt on the ground, Li Ping'an reined in his momentum, "Everything cannot be perfect, you can learn the complete ancient method of Wing Chun is already a blessing to invite heaven, you are going to meet your master Ip Man recently! Hurry up and take a look! But remember my words, no one can tell about martial arts." ”

The next day, Li Xiaolong came to Nathan Ip Man's house with gifts, and at this time, "Big Brother Tangshan" was still being screened, and his senior brother Liang Ting warmly received him. In fact, it must be nonsense to say that Li Xiaolong and Ip Man have a deep relationship between teachers and students, after all, Li Xiaolong is only a registered disciple of Ip Man, and most of Li Xiaolong's kung fu when he was in the martial arts hall was taught by Huang Chunliang.

Li Xiaolong came to Ip Man and sat down after saluting, "The apprentice only came to see you today, it's really damned." I hope the master will forgive me!"

Ye Man looked at Li Xiaolong carefully, and said, "Huh", "Xiaolong, you get up and punch me again." ”

Li Xiaolong answered, got up and hit the small probe and the bridge, and stood in place after collecting his fist and waiting for the master to judge. Ye Man tightened his eyebrows and thought for a while, "Xiaolong, you are very good, since you have a further opportunity, you must seize it, I wish you great wealth in the future." ”

Li Xiaolong and Ip Man exchanged pleasantries for a long time, and when Li Xiaolong left, he left a sentence, "I'm old now, I can't punch anymore, if you want to learn the rest of the Wing Chun techniques in the future, find your senior brother Ye Zhun and let him teach you." ”

Li Xiaolong bowed deeply with gratitude on his face, and was sent out of the door by his senior brother Liang Ting.

In 1954, Li Xiaolong worshiped Ip Man in the martial arts hall on Lida Street, and Li Xiaolong was quite devoted to class at that time and never missed class, but Li Xiaolong was not taught the method of pile gong and internal cultivation. After the development, Li Xiaolong once visited Yip Shi again, hoping to learn the wooden pile method of Wing Chun, and proposed to ask Yip Shi to personally demonstrate all the Wing Chun wooden pile method at the cost of one building, and Li Xiaolong's wife made a video and brought it back to the United States to study on his own, but was rejected by Ip Man.

During Li Xiaolong's martial arts practice in the martial arts hall, Ip Man once joked that Li Xiaolong was a "short-lived species" on the grounds of experience. It turned out that Li Xiaolong's feet were born with some small defects, and he was a little "upside down" when he walked. Ordinary people may not be able to see this defect, but the bright-eyed Ip Man has already seen this characteristic of him, and said with a smile that Bruce Lee "can't reach the ground with his heels when he walks, which is short-lived". Li Xiaolong was born with flat feet, not only did he "not touch the ground" when he walked, but he couldn't squat down with the whole soles of his feet touching the ground in the early days, which was known to Ip Man and other senior brothers who were good with Li Xiaolong. The so-called "short life when walking with heels on the ground" is not actually the first invention of Ip Man, but there is some medical basis, the heel is the route of the kidney meridians, and people who walk without heels are often unhealthy with long heel bones, and the kidney is the main bone of traditional Chinese medicine, so the bone is not healthy, and the kidney is the congenital foundation, so the kidney is not healthy, and the acquired disease will be more and more diseased if the kidney is not healthy.

A few years later, Li Xiaolong returned to Xiangjiang to visit Ip Man and his brother. Once when he had supper with a few fellow students, Li Xiaolong deliberately asked his master Ip Man, "Believe it or not, I can squat down now", Ip Man smiled silently, and only said that he wanted to inspire Li Xiaolong to work harder.

Ip Man and Huang Chunliang's six-year teaching of Li Xiaolong made him transition from a street fighting teenager to a real martial arts master, and of course, it also laid a solid foundation for Li Xiaolong to become the father of MMA. Li Xiaolong's later brilliant success in the world martial arts arena also led to the worldwide spread of Wing Chun in the future.

After Li Xiaolong left, Ye Man called his son Ye Zhun alone, "If Xiaolong comes to you in the future to learn the wooden stake, you can teach him! ”

"But father, didn't you say that Xiaolong was born with the image of early death, and you also told me that the core heart of Wing Chun is only passed on to the descendants of the Ye family, and the son is not passed on to the daughter. Ye Zhun was very surprised by his father's decision.

"Just do as I say!" Ye Man waved his hand and didn't explain much, "In the future, if you feel that your martial arts practice is stagnant, you can look for Xiaolong, I hope he will help you." ”

Ip Man let his son leave and was alone for a long time, and finally muttered softly, "Ancient Wing Chun...... Ancient Wing Chun ...... It turns out that you didn't lie to me when you said that there were many losses in Wing Chun, but unfortunately I was almost at the end of my time. ”
