Wang Zijun is the kind of martial artist who pays attention to skills but does not pay much attention to physical fitness in Dashan Beida's words, but fortunately, his physical strength is indescribably good after he crosses, and he has no regrets in this regard.

Anyway, Wang Zijun came here today to talk nonsense with Dashan Beida, so he smiled and said: "So, Mr. Dashan thinks that the basic ability of Chinese martial artists is not at home?" ”

Oyama Beida shook his head: "I'm not belittling Chinese martial artists, after all, karate was born out of Tang hands. I heard that the Gangju-ryu people are recently looking for their roots in Fujian, China, and Naha (the predecessor of Gang-ryu-ryu karate) seems to have improved from China's Crane Fist. I myself come from a Chinese martial arts background, so I have a lot of respect for traditional Chinese martial arts. In terms of current ring fighting, the person who enters the ring must first be an athlete, and then he is a martial artist. If you want to be a good athlete, you have to train a lot, not only in technique, but also in physical fitness and strength, which is not available in Chinese martial artists. Therefore, it can only be said that Chinese martial artists are not qualified athletes in the ring, and it cannot be denied that they are excellent martial artists. ”

"Which one do you prefer? The fighting in the ring is still under the ring. Wang Zijun asked.

Oyama Beida smiled: "If a reporter came to ask me, I wouldn't answer this question." ”

Wang Zijun also smiled: "But I'm not a reporter, so you can say it with confidence." ”

Dashan Beida said slyly: "I heard that Mr. Wang is also a martial artist, do you still need to ask about this?" ”

"Hehe, then don't ask." Wang Zijun said, as Dashan Beida said, those in the ring are athletes, and they can't be called real martial artists at all. Just like Wang Zijun's Yanqing boxing, if you punch the opponent with a punch, it is not a matter of how many points are scored, but whether the opponent can stand up.

It's different from knockout in the ring, because there are no rules or gloves, and you can do it in any way or position. It's like throwing skills, being thrown in the ring and falling on the concrete floor on the street are completely two different concepts, and the latter can directly fall to death.

Of course, it's not that professional martial artists can't do it, the kind of professional martial artists with strong physical strength, even if they get out of the ring, are very terrifying fighting machines. Sometimes the clever fighting skills, if you meet an opponent with too much physical disparity, the skills will not work at all, and others will be able to kill you with one force, not to mention that the reflexes of the fighters who have been fighting in the ring for a long time are very amazing.

"What about the loss of the old man surnamed Taiji in Hong Kong in "The Empty-handed Fool Generation"?" This is the question Wang Zijun wants to ask the most today.

"The Empty-Handed Fool Generation" is a comic that made great contributions to the promotion of Gokukuh Karate more than ten years ago, adapted from the autobiography of Dashan Beida, which has a plot that the only defeat in Dashan Beida's life is to lose to a certain Tai Chi master surnamed Chen in Hong Kong.

This rumor later became very popular in the mainland, and the disciples of Taijiquan were widely publicized as a treasure to prove the actual combat surname of Taijiquan. The funniest thing is that some Wing Chun heirs say that it was not the Tai Chi master who lost to Dashan Beida back then, but the Wing Chun master Huang Moumou. Dashan Beida was afraid that if the matter got out, someone would go to Huang Moumou for trouble, so he pretended to lose to the old man surnamed Taiji Chen.

"I knew you were going to ask this." Dashan Beida shook his head and smiled, it seems that he has been asked this question many times. He didn't answer directly, but said, "Comics, they always have to be shown to people, and the plot must be bizarre and twisty." ”

Wang Zijun nodded, Dashan Beida was a vague denial of this legend.

"But I do agree with some of the theories of Tai Chi, which is that the fist starts at a point and ends in a circle. This is not only introduced to my extreme vacuum karate, but also on the Aikido side. In fact, no matter which country's fighting skills, the most basic things are the same. ”

"What does Mr. Oyama think of Bruce Lee, who is known as the Sage of Martial Arts?" Wang Zijun asked. Oyama Beida and Bruce Lee were later included in the world's seven martial artists in "Black Belt", but that had to wait until after 1992. Now Bruce Lee is on the list, but Dashan Beida is not on the list.

Dashan Beida shook his head and said, "I haven't communicated with Mr. Li, so I don't dare to comment." As he spoke, he looked at his disciple Chiba Shinichi, who had been sitting precariously since he entered, "Chiba has been in contact with Mr. Li, maybe you can listen to what he has to say." ”

Chiba Shinichi thought for a moment and said, "Bruce's speed is too fast, I can't handle it at all. In addition, his boxing, kicking skills and pace are also very good, and I am looking forward to a showdown with my young teacher. ”

This evaluation is quite high, and the subconscious meaning is to compare Bruce Lee with Dashan Beida, which makes Dashan Beida also face it squarely, because Chiba Shinichi is one of his few personal disciples, and his vision is definitely not low.

Bruce Lee's skills Wang Zijun has seen it many times, so he naturally knows that he is not a showman.

Chinese views on the same thing often go to two extremes, take the evaluation of Bruce Lee as an example, later generations of Chinese basically have two views. One thinks that Bruce Lee is so powerful that he is invincible, while the other believes that Bruce Lee is just an actor and can't even beat an ordinary American professional boxer.

The former view naturally seems too absolute, but the latter view is obviously completely ignorant of martial arts, and their theory is that Bruce Lee's strength is only in the movies, and in reality he has not participated in any public competitions, even if he has shown great abilities in exhibition matches, it is all with the help of personnel and props to arrange the effect.

Not to mention the difference between ring fighting and actual fighting, let's take a look at how many fighting champions there are among his apprentices and friends. As the saying goes, like gathers like, is it possible that among so many fighting champions who train together, Bruce Lee alone is a waste of firewood?

Let's take a look at the martial arts hall opened by Bruce Lee, there are apprentices who pay a fee, and there are students who don't charge a fee. The apprentices who paid a fee were naturally to support their families, and as long as they were people of all factions who were willing to fight with him, he could do it for free, because he used the martial arts hall as a laboratory for the improvement of Jeet Kune Do's actual combat.

Since 1966, Bruce Lee has been wearing protective gear at least twice a week to fight with his disciples in boxing, taekwondo, judo, wrestling, and the martial arts masters of the year.

In addition, Bruce Lee's disciples or fellows have a characteristic, most of them are black belt masters of a certain sect of martial arts, and they are all older than him. Including the former Chinese National Games boxing champion Li Kai, boxing and judo master Feng Tianlun, who has many boxing golden glove disciples, stick king Irushandu, boxing champion Bastiro, and the father of American taekwondo Li Junjiu, Pan American judo champion Hayward Koben, kickboxing grandmaster and MMA main promoter Joe Lewis, etc.

Bruce Lee not only has a common training experience with the "father of American judo" Jenny Lebel, as early as the early sixties, Bruce Lee and the United States judo national team gold medal coach, jiu-jitsu master Xie Hualiang (that is, Willie Jay) forgot the year, Mr. Xie Hualiang not only admired Bruce Lee, but also taught his small cycle jiu-jitsu, in Mr. Xie Hualiang's jiu-jitsu monograph specifically mentioned Bruce Lee, saying that Bruce Lee's lock-up strength is so great that he is the strongest in the level he has ever seen. One of the prefaces to Bruce Lee's first book, "Basic Chinese Boxing Techniques", was written by Mr. Xie.

Jenny Lebel, the father of American judo, said of Bruce Lee: "He strikes twice as fast as the average person, and his boxing, footwork and kicking skills are really outstanding...... If there is a warrior who is king, Xiaolong is the king of kings...... He was one of the best players of his time. ”

Li Junjiu, the father of American taekwondo, said: "Let me tell you, this young man is truly incomparable, I broke four planks with a jump kick, and a few days later, he will fall out of thin air and break them with a side kick." I can't believe it's true. ”

Not only that, but former American professional boxing champion Leonard, who was selected as one of the "Ten Greatest Boxing Athletes of the 20th Century", believes that Bruce Lee taught him the methods that made his jab fast, accurate, and powerful, and that he was greatly inspired by Bruce Lee's scientific training methods.

Former world karate champion Luis Dierghda described his fight with Bruce Lee as a terrifying experience: take the defensive, only passively take the beating, take the initiative, and only return a harsher counterattack.

There are countless celebrities who praise Bruce Lee unreservedly, and for the kind of Chinese people who black Bruce Lee, these celebrity masters are either touting Bruce Lee, or ignoring their choice of surname.

The three of them talked about Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do, and Kikuko Daiyama, who was kneeling on the ground and pretending to be a lady, unconsciously leaned over, elbows resting on the coffee table, palms supporting cheeks, looking at her father for a while, looking at Wang Zijun for a while, her eyes flickering and blinking.

"Ahem!" Dashan Beida finally noticed his daughter's poor sitting posture and coughed twice as a reminder.

Oyama Kikuko immediately knelt up straight, her little face was tense, her eyes turned around, and she suddenly said, "Mr. Wang, I heard that you are a Chinese kung fu master, otherwise you will have a fight with Senior Brother Chiba, right?" ”

"Forget it, I'm just an actor." Wang Zijun said with a smile.

Dashan Beida wanted to blame his daughter for not being polite, but when he saw his daughter looking at him, he immediately changed his words and said: "Since this is the case, let's see Mr. Wang's Chinese boxing method." ”

As soon as Chiba Zhen saw the teacher speak, he immediately turned around and bowed to Wang Zijun and said, "Please Mr. Wang for advice." ”

Wang Zijun saw that Oyama Kihisako was smiling proudly at him, but he couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree speechlessly.

In the past, Wang Zijun had to learn from Bruce Lee, and they all had to wear protective gear. It's a pity that extreme vacuum karate advocates full contact, even if he doesn't wear protective gear in official competitions, Wang Zijun is really afraid that this friendship will hurt people, whether it hurts himself or Chiba Shinichi, it's not good.
