Chapter Seventy-One: Kick the Gym!
For the next few days, Lu Yuan had been thinking about one thing.
After what happened to Kim Hyukyu that day, he realized that the status of Chinese martial arts in this era was precarious, and in the past few days, he walked in various martial arts halls in Chu City, and found that it was not Chinese martial arts that were very popular, but some taekwondo, karate and so on from foreign countries.
This result was unacceptable to him, but he promised Ip Man that he would pass on Chinese martial arts, and now the situation of martial arts is so difficult, which makes his heart very heavy.
In fact, it is not without reason that such a phenomenon is caused.
You must know that the reason why Chinese martial arts are powerful is that the martial arts are broad and profound, and the mysteries are obscure and difficult to understand, and it is difficult to achieve success without practicing for decades.
Taekwondo and the like are different, even if you are a novice, you can be considered a little skilled after studying for a few months, and it is not worthwhile to face two or three people.
With the current fast-paced lifestyle, it is clear that taekwondo and so on are more acceptable to everyone.
Therefore, if you want to save the fate of martial arts, you must start from three aspects.
First, it is necessary to reflect the strength of traditional Chinese martial arts, only when people see the strength of martial arts, and then people will have confidence in martial arts, which is the first thing to do.
Second, it is necessary to streamline some advanced boxing techniques into some simple moves, which are required to be simple and effective, and easy to learn, so as to attract more people to learn martial arts.
Third, it is necessary to divide the cultivation of martial arts into several grades, so that martial arts learners have the urge to improve, such as the level of taekwondo.
Only after doing a good job in these three aspects, coupled with his efforts, can it be possible to continue to pass on martial arts.
And he has to teach some apprentices in advance, otherwise it will not work to rely on him alone in the future, firstly, he will not put all his energy on this, and secondly, he can teach a hundred people alone, but he can't teach a thousand or ten thousand people, and he still needs the help of his apprentices.
And these apprentices, he already has a candidate, that is, the former marines who came to join him.
They have good physical fitness and basic skills, so they can learn kung fu very quickly.
There are 20 of these group members, one of them is named Zhao Ziwu, who is highly skilled and has excellent military ability, and can be described as a well-deserved king of soldiers.
Lu Yuan and Zhao Ziwu worked together to revamp Wing Chun, making it simpler and more useful.
Because Zhao Ziwu has sufficient combat experience, hand-to-hand combat is his strength, so with Zhao Ziwu's help, the work is going smoothly.
After more than half a month of research, the two finally came up with a simple version of Wing Chun that is suitable for novices to practice.
Then he taught this simple version of the boxing method to the rest of the team members, the soldiers are good, they have good physical fitness, and obey orders, Lu Yuan let them practice hard, and they are wholeheartedly immersed in the boxing method.
Since their foundation is very good, it didn't take much effort to practice this simplified version of the boxing method.
After this matter was resolved, he didn't know how to let people see the power of martial arts, so as to give people confidence in martial arts.
Later, Zhao Ziwu told him that a month later, the Global Martial Arts Exchange Conference held in HB Province will be held in the provincial capital, and this martial arts exchange conference will bring together the world's top martial artists, including Muay Thai champions, taekwondo, karate, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and other world-renowned martial artists will come to participate.
Hearing this news, Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, he was worried that he couldn't find an opportunity to make martial arts famous, this global martial arts exchange conference was simply tailor-made for him.
As long as he wins this martial arts exchange conference, then the fame of Chinese martial arts will be greatly increased, and people's confidence in martial arts will be re-established, and his work will be smoother at that time.
He came to the provincial capital non-stop and found Ye Qingcheng, the current mayor of the provincial city, and the two chatted for a while, and then Lu Yuan proposed that he wanted to participate in this martial arts exchange conference.
Ye Qingcheng, who heard this, was not surprised at all, because since the last time Lu Yuan fought a bloody battle of more than 200 people, he sighed at Lu Yuan's combat effectiveness, and when he learned that Lu Yuan wanted to participate in the martial arts exchange conference, he did not doubt Lu Yuan's combat effectiveness.
"Although the martial arts exchange conference is said to be held by us, the participants have already been decided, if you want to participate, there is only one way!"
Ye Qingcheng couldn't help it, because the participants had already been decided, after all, such a big martial arts event, all martial artists wanted to participate, and the quota had already been snatched up.
"What's the solution?"
When Lu Yuan heard this, he was a little disappointed in his heart, could it be that such a good opportunity was just gone?
But Ye Qingcheng's words behind him lit up again, and hope was born in his heart again, and he hurriedly asked.
"That is, you can challenge those participants, and if you win, then you can replace them in the martial arts exchange conference. ”
Ye Qingcheng showed a smile on his face, he was still confident in Lu Yuan's strength.
"I see!"
When Lu Yuan heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, in his opinion, this condition was not difficult for him.
Then Ye Qingcheng gave him a list of entrants, he studied it carefully for a while, and finally selected a person!
He said goodbye to Ye Qingcheng, returned to Chu City, and came to the door of a taekwondo gym in Chu City non-stop.
Since he has his own principles for selecting people, the first is that the Celestial Empire warriors are not selected, and he hopes that more traditional martial artists can shine at this exchange conference.
So he set his sights on foreigners, and he quickly found one person, the director of the Chu City Taekwondo Gym, Kim Jung-ho!
He slowly walked into the taekwondo gym, and when the staff inside saw him coming in, they immediately stepped forward enthusiastically and said, "Sir, do you want to learn taekwondo......?
"Go and call your curator out, I have something to look for him!"
Lu Yuan got straight to the point, interrupted the staff's words, and said directly in an unquestionable tone.
"Do you have an appointment?"
When the staff saw that Lu Yuan was not here to sign up, their enthusiasm suddenly decreased.
"If you tell your curator, you will say that someone has come to ask for a place in his martial arts exchange conference, and he will naturally come out. ”
Lu Yuan was expressionless, and said in an indifferent tone.
"Hmph! Where did the hairy boy come from, I really don't know how thick the sky is!"
As soon as Lu Yuan's words fell, he saw a group of people walking out of the hall, and just when he heard this, the middle-aged man led by him suddenly showed a sneer on his face.
