Rice country, San Francisco, here is full of people!

David is standing in front of a poster with Tom!

David is Asian, his father is Chinese, his mother is European, and he now lives in Hong Kong!

Every year David goes back to China to visit his family, so he is fluent in Mandarin and also knows about Chinese traditions!

Tom is a purebred white man, it is said that his ancestor was a British nobleman, but these are not important, Tom is also a lover of Chinese culture, very obsessed with Chinese culture!

"Bruce Lee's Master?"

Tom looked at the poster with some confusion!

"This is a Chinese kung fu movie?"

David was a little excited!

"Oh, I remember, this movie seems to be quite popular recently!"

Tom replied!

There are a lot of people in his small circle who are talking about this film!

"Really?"

David was a little confused!

But it's really not easy to see a film from China in North America!

What's more, this film is called "Bruce Lee's Master"!

Bruce Lee is famous even in the West!

Bruce Lee (November 27, 1940-July 20, 1973), formerly known as Li Zhenfan, studied under Ip Man, was born in San Francisco, California, USA, and his ancestral home is Jun'an Town, Shunde, Guangdong, China.

There are so many titles on him that he has a lot of fans even in the West!

That's right, this film is "Ip Man"!

Not many people in the West know about "Ip Man", so Warner translated this film as "Bruce Lee's Master"!

In the eyes of many Chinese people, Bruce Lee is so awesome, so isn't his master even more awesome?

A lot of people have taken the bait because of the name!

When David and Tom came to the theater, they were stunned because it was already full, and there were a lot of Caucasians!

In the kung fu movies released in the past, most of them were supported by Chinese, but now it is really rare for so many white people to watch it!

The video begins!

At the beginning, it was 1935, although China was already full of holes and crumbling, but in Guangzhou and Foshan, it was still considered that the family was rich and had no worries about food and clothing.

At this time, Ip Man is a young master of a large family, he has a beautiful wife and a well-behaved son, and Foshan's first Wing Chun, in the martial Foshan, he is like a popular idol and a civilian hero, especially after he defeated the northern martial artist Jin Shan Xuan, his local prestige has reached its peak, everyone knows him, they all like him and worship him, walking on the street, everyone will take the initiative to greet him, and they will be proud to talk to him.

He is gentle and approachable, he will give face to the martial artist who comes to challenge, he lives in a mansion without worrying about food and clothing, so he doesn't need to open a museum to accept apprentices, he has a beautiful wife, he is a little afraid of guilt, although he himself said that it is respect.

Before the first fight, Ip Man generously had dinner with Master Liao, ate snacks, drank tea, and picked his teeth。。。。。

At this time, the calm atmosphere and excellence of the film have been demonstrated.

At the beginning of the fight, Tom was taken aback by the cleanliness of Ip Man's movements!

"Chinese Kung Fu, this is Chinese Kung Fu!"

"So handsome!"

"Cool!"

。。。。。。。。。

The first fight with Master Liao was only a warm-up, and when the point was reached, it aroused people's appetite and immediately Mingjin withdrew his troops, using it to render Ip Man's low-key, emphasizing how his wife didn't like him to fight, and how he was the first in Foshan in the mouths of the public, and the back was powdered, which made him more and more unfathomable.

This invisible pretense is really convincing!

"Ip Man is amazing!"

"Ip Man is so awesome!"

。。。。。。。。。

And the fight between Ip Man and Jin Shan is even more enjoyable for these people to watch, especially when Ip Man uses a broom to find the north of Jin Shan Hunt, many people even chanted!

Shouting in impure Chinese: "Ip Man!"

"Ip Man!"

Of course, there are also humanitarians: "Is that magic?"

It can be said that this series of action design has fascinated these North American audiences!

Then the film changed dramatically, and the style of the film changed!

In 1938, Foshan fell.

Ip Man lost his mansion, lost his rich and happy life, he couldn't even feed his wife and children, it must be said here that his wife is really an ideal wife, she may occasionally play small sex in peacetime, but when disaster comes, she will become a good woman who silently accompanies you and supports you.

Ip Man, as well as his peers, fell into a useless situation unprepared. In the era when weapons were stronger than martial arts, and iron horsemen trampled on martial arts, the anxiety, hesitation, pain and helplessness of the warriors made them embark on different paths of meaning.

Master Liao, a middle-aged man with a rich appearance, is the third person in a piece of Chinese martial arts, and he is arrogant and has a bit of a burgher habit, and now he has to compete with the Japanese for three meals a day.

His situation was also something that other warriors had to face, and Gao Feng Liangjie, who "did not bend his waist for five buckets of rice", was transformed by these "rough people" into a pragmatism and adventurism that could not only beat the Japanese, but also have a chance to fill their stomachs. Master Liao eventually died under the cold guns of the Japanese, and indirectly died of his impetuous and impatient character defects. His death exacerbated the loss of martial arts practitioners in the pursuit of utilitarianism: no matter how good martial arts are, they can't take a shot, what is a martial artist?

Many white people also see it with a kinship!

They know more about that history!

Ip Man knew this very well, and therefore felt dazed and lost in his excellent work, but he could only dig coal in exchange for a piece of roasted sweet potato, but he could only watch the tragic death of his compatriots and was powerless to save him, and when he said to his wife, "I am useless", his eyes were desperate and about to die.

But Ip Man didn't fall silent after all!

Ip Man stood on the street, surrounded by compatriots who had starved to death and killed by the Japanese, no one could have enough to eat, and on the other side, the Japanese flaunted their might.

He watched his fellow martial artists being killed, and he let out an angry roar: "I'm going to fight ten"!

"Good!"

"Beautiful, good fight!"

"Ip Man is awesome!"

。。。。。。。

Many white people at the scene shouted excitedly!

Soon came the decisive battle with Miura!

The night before the decisive battle, he seemed to have untied many knots in his heart that he had been unable to untie: Should he devote himself to practicing martial arts or respect his wife and children? Should he be alone in his own self or should he pass on what he had learned? Should he die for his country or should he endure it? Where is the value of Chinese martial arts? What is the ultimate goal of the Chinese people in practicing martial arts? What is the general righteousness of the nation? What is the ethics of the state? In an era when everyone cannot control his own destiny, how will the essence of martial arts play a role?...... In the movie, Ip Man's own answer is the Confucian "benevolence". But I think that the word "benevolence" is not enough to satisfy him, because after easily defeating the Japanese, the film gives a sensational slow shot, and we see that Ip Man is still at a loss at this time, facing his compatriots who are similar in joy, what will he think?

At the end of the film, Miura faces Ip Man in the ring, has no way to fight back, and is beaten like a stake.

Everyone also applauded: "Good!"

"Good fight!"

"Beautiful!"

"Ip Man !!!!"

"Ip Man" is a huge hit in North America!
