Chapter 759 Welcome
The United States, San Francisco, there is a lot of people here!
David is standing in front of a poster with Tom!
David is of Asian descent, his father is Chinese, and his mother is European, living in Hong Kong now!
David travels back to China every year to visit family, so he speaks Mandarin fluently and also has traditional Chinese knowledge!
Tom is a purebred American white man. It is said that his ancestor was a British nobleman, but these are not important. Tom is also a Chinese culture lover and is very obsessed with Chinese culture!

"Bruce Lee's Master?"

Tom looked at the poster with some doubts!

"Is this a Chinese Kung Fu movie?"

David is a little excited!

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

Tom replied!
There are a lot of people in his inner circle talking about this movie!
"is it?"

David was a little puzzled!

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

What's more, this movie is called "Bruce Lee's Master"!
Bruce Lee is famous even in the West!
Bruce Lee (November 1940, 11-July 27, 1973), formerly known as Li Zhenfan, learned from Ip Man, was born in San Francisco, California, USA, and his ancestral home is Jun'an Town, Shunde, Guangdong, China. He is a pioneer of world martial arts revolution, martial arts fighter, and martial arts philosophy. Master, father of MMA, martial arts master, founder of Kung Fu movies and founder of Jeet Kune Do, Chinese martial arts film actor, the first global promoter of Chinese Kung Fu, and the first Chinese protagonist in Hollywood.

There are too many titles on him, even in the West, he has many fans!

That's right, this movie is "Ip Man"!
Not many people in the West know "Ip Man", so Warner translated this film as "Bruce Lee's Master"!
In the eyes of many Americans, Bruce Lee is so awesome, so isn't his master even more awesome?
Many people have been hooked just because of the name!

When David and Tom came to the theater, they were stunned, because it was already full, and there were many white people!
Most of the kung fu movies released before were supported by Chinese, but now it is really rare that so many white people watch it!

Video starts!
At the beginning, it was [-]. Although China was already in dire straits and crumbling at that time, in Foshan, Guangzhou, every family was still well-off and had no worries about food and clothing.

At this time, Ye Wen was the young master of a rich family. He had a beautiful wife, a well-behaved son, and the number one Wing Chun boxing in Foshan. After he defeated the northern martial artist Jin Shanzhao, his local reputation reached its peak. Everyone knew him, liked him and worshiped him. Walking on the street, everyone would take the initiative to greet him and take pride in talking to him.

He is gentle, gentle and approachable, he will give face to the martial artists who come to challenge him, he has no worries about food and clothing and lives in a big house, so he does not need to open a shop to recruit apprentices, he has a beautiful wife, he is a little fearful of guilt, although he himself said that it is respect.

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

At this time, the calm atmosphere and excellence of the movie have been revealed.

When the fight started, Ip Man's neat movements surprised Tom!
"Chinese Kung Fu, this is Chinese Kung Fu!"

"So handsome!"

"Cool!"

. . . . . . . . .

The first fight with Master Liao was just a warm-up, until the end, it whetted people's appetites and then Ming Jin retreated, using it to exaggerate Ip Man's low-key, emphasizing how his wife didn't like him fighting, and exaggerating how everyone said he was. Foshan No. [-], with powder on the back, he looks more and more unfathomable.

This intangible pretense is really convincing!
"Ye Wen is amazing!"

"Ye Wen is awesome!"

. . . . . . . . .

And the fight between Ip Man and Jinshan was even more enjoyable for these people to watch, especially when Ye Wen beat Jinshan with a broom and couldn't find the north, many people even shouted!
Shouted in unproficient Chinese: "Ip Man!"

"Ip man!"

Of course, some people asked: "Is that magic?"

It can be said that this series of action designs made these North American audiences mesmerized!
Then the situation of the film changed suddenly, and the style of the film changed!

In [-], Foshan fell.

Ip Man lost his mansion, lost his rich and happy life, and he couldn't even feed his wife and children. What must be said here is that his wife is really an ideal wife. She may occasionally play tricks in peacetime Son, but when the disaster comes, she will become a good woman who will silently accompany you and support you.

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

Master Liao, this middle-aged man with a rich appearance, can be regarded as the third Chinese martial artist in the film. He is proud and has a little bit of a petty citizen, and now he has to compete with the Japanese for three meals a day.

His situation is also what other warriors have to face. These "rough people" have transformed the lofty integrity of "not bending down for five buckets of rice" into pragmatism and adventurism that can not only beat the Japanese hard, but also have a chance to fill their stomachs.In the end, Master Liao died under the cold gun of the Japanese, and also indirectly died of his impetuous and eager for quick success.His death exacerbated the loss of martial arts practitioners in pursuit of utilitarianism: No matter how good martial arts are, they can't survive a single shot, so what should a martial artist do?
Many white people also look at it with sympathy!
They know more about that history!

Ye Wen knew this very well, and because of this, he felt at a loss and lost his superior skills, but he could only dig coal in exchange for a piece of roasted sweet potato, but he could only watch his compatriots die tragically and was powerless to save him. He said to his wife, "I am very sorry." Useless", the eyes are desperate to die.

But Ye Wen was not silent after all!
Ip Man stood on the street, surrounded by compatriots killed by the Japanese who starved to death, no one could have enough to eat, and on the other side, the Japanese were showing off their might.

He watched fellow martial artists being beaten to death, and he roared, "I want to kill ten!"

"it is good!"

"Beautiful, good fight!"

"Ip Man is amazing!"

. . . . . . .

Many white people shouted excitedly!

Soon came the decisive battle with Miura!

On the night before the decisive battle, he seemed to have unraveled many knots in his heart: Should he concentrate on practicing martial arts or respect his wife and teach his children?Should I be alone or pass on what I have learned?Should I die for my country or just forbear?Where is the value of Chinese martial arts?What is the ultimate goal of Chinese people practicing martial arts?What is national justice?What is national ethics?In an era when everyone cannot control their 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 gave a sensational slow motion. Compatriots, what is he thinking?

At the end of the film, Miura faced Ye Wen in the ring, unable to fight back, and was beaten like a stake.

Everyone also applauded: "Good!"

"well played!"

"Pretty!"

"Ip man!!!!!"

"Ip Man" is very popular in North America!
