Chapter 90: The Lecture I

After seeing the construction company and the home improvement supermarket, Tagawa finally had time to go back to school. The final exam is about to start, and Tagawa basically didn't attend classes for the whole semester, and although he got the understanding of the teachers, he always couldn't say anything if he didn't get a good grade in the final exam. Some time ago, Tagawa came home every night and devoted all his energy to the review of the course.

It is said to be a review, but it is actually self-study. He basically never attended classes, and he had to learn the content of the book from scratch. Fortunately, he basically had no problem with the subjects exempted from the direct examination, and all he needed to learn was the five compulsory and elective courses, and after nearly half a month of struggle, he was confident that he could pass the exam.

The final exam lasted for two weeks, and it was slowly carried out at a rate of about one in two days, and Tagawa had to take a total of ten exams, almost one per day, and the more he took the exam, the more he became more and more in shape, and finally he began to enjoy the feeling of this exam.

Until all ten exams were completed, Tagawa maintained this mood of enjoying the exams. After the exam, Tagawa visited the teachers in turn, and the news he got made him unable to believe it.

A total of seven courses, including Biology, Biochemistry, and Agriculture, as well as Mechanical Drawing, FORTRAN Language, Advanced Mathematics, and College English, were completed with full marks, and the other courses also achieved excellent scores of more than 90 points.

After the exam, Tagawa and his classmates in the dormitory went to the Tai Chi Association. The president of the association has not been to the association for more than a month, and although he meets many members of the association in the big playground and grove almost every morning, and gives them some guidance, he always feels a little indebted to the members when he does not come to the association for a month.

Seeing the arrival of the long-lost president, the classmates in the association greeted him one after another, and Tagawa responded one by one.

These days, Tian Chuan has been exchanging experiences with some students who have worked hard every morning, and he is very pleased to feel the progress of many students. At this time, the exam has ended, and the things in my business have come to an end for the time being, so I am ready to talk to the students of the association about the experience and essentials of practicing boxing.

It is said that since the establishment of the Taijiquan Association, in addition to the two weeks of the exam, there was a Taijiquan celebrity speech every week, which has spread a certain fame in the nearby university, and many students from other schools have come to listen to the lecture every time.

Before the start of the exam, the association posted a notice on the campus bulletin board to suspend the Tai Chi lectures during the exam, and at the same time, it was notified that at half past four in the afternoon of Saturday the next day after the end of the exam, in the school's largest classroom, Classroom 201 of the main building, Tian Chuan, president of the school's Tai Chi Association, gave a speech entitled "Common Problems and Countermeasures in Tai Chi Practice".

At noon that day, a teacher from the school's security office approached Tagawa and suggested that he move his afternoon lecture to the auditorium, because the seats in classroom 201 in the main building were full of books and other things before noon. Based on past experience, the afternoon lectures are bound to be overcrowded. For safety reasons, placing the lecture in a large auditorium that can accommodate more than 700 people can greatly reduce the safety risks.

Tagawa didn't expect so many people to come to the lecture and agreed to the teacher's suggestion. He first approached the school office that manages the auditorium, applied for the right to use the auditorium, and asked his classmates from the association to help print the admission ticket. Notices were posted on bulletin boards in various parts of the school and in classroom 201 of the main building, asking everyone to collect admission tickets at the Tai Chi Association located near the office building of the Department of Physical Education with their student IDs, and student IDs from other schools can also be obtained.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the auditorium that can accommodate more than 700 people was basically full, Tian Chuan, Zeng Wenxuan, and Yuan Feng adjusted the microphones and projectors used for speeches together, and the audience below came from the buzzing sound of everyone talking to each other. This was the first time Tagawa had given a speech in front of such an audience, and it was inevitable that he was a little nervous. Fortunately, as a business owner, he has spoken to his employees many times, and he has gradually become familiar with speaking in public.

At half past four, Tian Chuan wore a cerulean Taijiquan Association dress, a big red belt around his waist, and seven-colored tassels hanging from both ends of the belt, and walked on the stage. In the center of the stage is a white projection screen with the inscription "Common Problems and Solutions in Tai Chi Practice: Tagawa"

Tagawa walked to the middle of the stage first, did not speak, raised his hand and saluted the audience with his fists. Then when he returned to the podium on the side of the stage, he said through the microphone, "Good afternoon, everyone." First of all, I would like to introduce myself, I am Tian Chuan, the president of the school's Taijiquan Association, a red level of Taijiquan, a first-level coach and referee. Today I will talk to you about the common problems and solutions in Tai Chi practice. ”

The audience burst into applause, not very enthusiastic, not too sparse. Tian Chuan and the others stopped their applause for a while, and said, "It seems that everyone still has a lot of doubts about me, and the applause is not very enthusiastic." ”

There was a burst of laughter from the audience. Successfully calming the atmosphere, Tagawa spoke:

"Everyone has heard of Tai Chi, and most people have seen it. Now in our school, I have been very hot, and it is estimated that many people will doubt in their hearts: Isn't this thing used by old men and old ladies to move their muscles and bones, and is it really meaningful to fight? Here I will show you two videos to set the record straight. ”

As Tian Chuan's voice fell, the big screen began to broadcast a video of Liu Meiting and Leng Liqiang pushing hands at last year's Taijiquan Conference. As the game progressed, Tagawa gave some explanations for the action of the game. After a few minutes of video playing, Tian Chuan said: "The pusher just now is the video of last year's National Taijiquan Conference, and the female contestant in the video is Liu Meiting of Yang-style Taijiquan. ”

From the video just now, we can clearly see that Liu Meiting uses Tai Chi to fight slowly and quickly, to defeat the strong with the weak to listen to the strength of the force, and to use the eight methods of Tai Chi to easily defeat opponents who are younger and stronger than herself. It can be said that Tai Chi can really be used as a means of attack. ”

Then, a video was played, which was of Tagawa himself practicing the 24 simplified Tai Chi forms. In the video, Tagawa punches, fast and slow, and his movements are also somewhat deformed. After the broadcast, Tian Chuan said: "In the video, I practice the most widely circulated simplified Tai Chi 24 styles, what do you think of my fight?"

Zhang Jianzhong came to the stage, and after saluting everyone, he practiced the simplified 24 forms of Taijiquan on the spot, which won warm applause from the audience.

Tian Chuan said: "Everyone saw the real performance routine Tai Chi, the boxing is low, steady and precise. This is a real competition routine, which is different from the routine we practice with our pushers. The thing I practiced just now is the basic practice routine of pushing hands, and although it looks non-standardized, it is a skill to experience the force when practicing the routine. ”

"Everyone understands that when fighting with people, the other party will not follow the rules and regulations to exert force smoothly according to the requirements of your Taijiquan, how can we keep up with the rhythm of the opponent with our slow Taijiquan?

Tagawa looked at the attentive audience in the stands and said, "No, I can't keep up at all." As we know that the reaction speed of nerves is relatively slow. We see or feel the other person's action or intention, the signal is transmitted back to the brain, the brain receives the signal, analyzes it, and then gives a command to the limbs, and how long does it take for the limbs to make a move after receiving the command? About 1.3 seconds. What can an opponent do in 1.3 seconds? Tyson can throw about 10 punches! Every punch can knock us to the ground. ”

"Now, the first question arises: how can we fight fast with slow and sharp attacks?

The audience was silent, and Tagawa said: "This question involves the understanding of the concept of Taijiquan, we are talking about playing fast with slowness, not slower than the opponent's speed, but shooting behind the opponent. Once the opponent shoots, we take advantage of the situation to meet the opponent's attack, when the two sides have contact, the use of 'listening to the strength' method to understand the characteristics of the opponent's force, and then take reasonable measures to resolve the opponent's strength, homeopathic counterattack, this is the so-called 'slow to play fast'. ”

"Some students may ask, 'The process of listening is so complicated, how does nerve conduction do it?' In fact, this process of listening and responding to energy is not done through the brain, but by conditioned reflexes. Through repeated and extensive practice, we can make our hands, feet and limbs reach the level of being extremely familiar with the strength of listening, and we can respond immediately and accurately the moment we feel the power of the other party, without going through the brain. It's a knee-jerk reaction that can only be done with long-term practice. ”

"In fact, almost all martial arts use conditioning to deal with opponents who have also practiced martial arts. ”

"Some people may also ask, what if the opponent's strength is much greater than mine, and my strength is not enough to change the opponent's course of movement? Let's take a look at another video. ”

The third video was broadcast on the big screen, which was Liu Meiting's push hand to Chen Mingyuan in the pusher performance when the Taijiquan Association was established. When Liu Meiting faced the powerful Chen Mingyuan, it was difficult to shake Chen Mingyuan's offensive, so she had to move her body and gradually weaken Chen Mingyuan's strength with her whole body strength.

After watching the video for a few minutes, Tagawa said: "Have you seen it? This is the way to defeat the strong with the weak, so I don't need to say more, right? But here I want to emphasize that defeating the strong with the weak is relative, and when the strength and speed of the opponent reach a certain level, there will always be a stage where it is difficult for us to overcome. As a martial arts technique, strength and endurance are always the basis for victory, and that's an indisputable fact. We must not deceive ourselves with the reason that the weak is better than the strong, and basic physical training is always the foundation of any kind of martial arts, including our Tai Chi. What? Don't you believe it? Then let's look at the fourth video. ”

The fourth video is a continuation of the third one, and it is still the driving force of Liu Meiting and Chen Mingyuan. Chen Mingyuan changed his tactics, no longer pursued offense, and adopted the method of holding each other, gradually consuming Liu Meiting's physical strength, and finally won the victory.

Tagawa said, "When the skills of both sides are similar, the advantage of physical strength and strength will be infinitely magnified and become the decisive factor. ”

Speaking of this, Tian Chuan changed the subject: "Just now we extended two problems from the role of conditioned reflexes. When I first talked about conditioning, I said that conditioning is the body's subconscious reaction when it feels the power of the other person. I don't know if you have noticed, but some of the conditioned reflexes made by the body are conducive to destroying the coherence of the opponent's movements, promoting the deformation of the opponent's movements or making mistakes in judgment, so that we can gain an advantage and even win directly. Others, on the other hand, will backfire and make themselves passive. We say that the former reaction is correct and the latter is wrong. When we practice, we should always pay attention to the correctness of our movements and avoid wrong movements. ”

"The eight methods of Tai Chi that we practice are summed up by the predecessors, and the correct way to deal with them is that we usually have to practice diligently. The Eight Methods are divided into Four Positive and Four Odd, and the Four Odds are the most commonly used deformation techniques of the Four Righteous Techniques, which are a supplement to the Four Righteous Techniques. In the usual practice, should be based on the four positives, when the four positive techniques practice to a certain extent, the four odd techniques can be naturally used, and once the four odd techniques are used, it will often determine the outcome of the game, in the hands of the masters, this situation is especially common. ”
