Wang Zijun is the kind of warrior that Dashan Beida said focuses on skills but not much on physical fitness. Fortunately, his physical strength is indescribably good after time travel, so he has no regrets in this regard. (Just read the novel.)
Anyway, Wang Zijun came here today to talk nonsense with Dashan Beida, so he smiled and said: "So, Mr. Dashan thinks that the basic abilities of Chinese martial artists are not good enough?"
Oyama Beida shook his head: "I'm not disparaging Chinese martial artists. After all, karate was born out of Tangshou. I heard that Goju-ryu people are looking for their roots in Fujian, China recently. Naha-shou (the predecessor of Goju-ryu karate) seems to have improved Crane Boxing from China. I am also a practitioner of Chinese martial arts, so I have great respect for traditional Chinese martial arts. In terms of current fighting in the ring, the person who enters the ring must first be an athlete, and secondly he must be a martial artist. Want to To be an excellent athlete, you must undergo a lot of training. In addition to skills, it also includes physical and strength training. These trainings are not available to Chinese martial artists. Therefore, it can only be said that Chinese martial artists are not qualified to compete in the ring. Athletes, there is no denying that they are excellent martial artists.¡±
"Which one does Mr. Dashan prefer? Fighting in the ring or fighting in the ring." Wang Zijun asked.
Dashan Beida smiled and said: "If a reporter came to ask me, I would not answer this question."
Wang Zijun also smiled and said: "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 warrior. Do you still need to ask?"
"Haha, then don't ask." Wang Zijun smiled. As Oyama Beida said, those in the ring are all athletes and cannot be called real fighters at all. Just like Wang Zijun's Yanqing Fist, if a punch hits the opponent for sure, then it's not about how many points are scored, but whether the opponent can still stand up.
This is different from KO in the ring, because there are no rules or gloves restrictions, and any method and position can be used. Just like throwing skills, getting knocked down in the ring, followed by falling on the concrete floor in the street. They are completely two concepts, the latter can directly kill people.
Of course, that doesn¡¯t mean that professional fighters can¡¯t do it. Professional fighters with strong bodies are terrifying fighting machines even after they get out of the ring. Sometimes excellent fighting skills will not work at all if you encounter an opponent whose physical quality is too different. Others can kill you with just ten seconds of strength reduction. What's more, the reaction ability of players who have been in the ring for a long time is amazing.
"What about the incident in "The Empty-Hand Fool Generation" where you lost to the Hong Kong Tai Chi old man surnamed Chen?" This is the question Wang Zijun wanted to ask most today.
"The Empty-Hand Fool Generation" is a comic that made great contributions to the promotion of Kyokushin Karate more than ten years ago. It was adapted from Oyama Beida's autobiography. There is a plot in which Oyama Beida's only defeat in his life was to a Hong Kong man named Chen. Tai Chi master.
This rumor later became very popular in mainland China, and Tai Chi disciples publicized it as if they had found a treasure to prove the practicality of Tai Chi. The funniest thing is some Wing Chun successors. It is said that the person Dashan Beida lost to was not a Tai Chi master, but a Wing Chun master Huang Moumou. Dashan Beida was afraid that if the matter spread out, someone would cause trouble for Huang Moumou, so he pretended that he had lost to an old man named Chen from Tai Chi.
"I knew you would 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. Instead, he said, "Comics must be read by people, and the plot must be bizarre and surprising."
Wang Zijun nodded, Dashan Beida implicitly denied this legend.
Oyama Beida said: "But I do agree with some theories of Tai Chi, that is, boxing starts from a point and ends with a circle. This point not only introduces my Kyokushin karate, but also Aikido. Obviously. In fact, no matter which country the fighting skills are from, the most basic things are the same."
"What does Mr. Dashan think of Bruce Lee, who is hailed as the Saint of Martial Arts by the Japanese?" Wang Zijun asked. Dashan Beida and Bruce Lee were later included in the "Black Belt" of the world's seven martial artists, but that had to wait until after 1992. Now Bruce Lee is on the list, but Dashan Beida is not.
Dashan Beida shook his head and said: "I have never communicated with Mr. Li, so I dare not make any comments." As he said that, he looked at his disciple Chiba Shinichi who was sitting upright after entering. "Qianye has had contact with Mr. Li, maybe you can listen to what he said."
Chiba Shinichi thought for a while and said: "Bruce's speed is too fast and I can't handle it at all. In addition, his boxing, kicking and footwork are also very powerful. I am looking forward to a duel with him when I was a young teacher."
This evaluation is quite high, and the hidden meaning is to compare Bruce Lee with Oyama Beida. This remark made Oyama Beida take it seriously, because Chiba Shinichi is one of his few?One of his direct disciples, his vision is definitely not low.
Wang Zijun has seen Bruce Lee's skills many times, so he naturally knows that he is not a showman.
Chinese people often have two extreme views on the same thing. Take the evaluation of Bruce Lee as an example. Chinese people in later generations basically have two views. One believes that Bruce Lee is so powerful that he is invincible, while the other believes that Bruce Lee is just an actor and cannot even beat an ordinary American professional boxer.
The former view naturally seems too absolute, but the latter view is obviously completely ignorant of fighting. Their theoretical basis is that Bruce Lee's strength is only in movies. In reality, he has not participated in any public competitions, even in exhibition matches. The powerful abilities demonstrated in the movie were all achieved with the help of personnel and props.
Not to mention the difference between ring fighting and actual fighting, let¡¯s first look at how many fighting champions he has among his apprentices and friends. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, is it possible that among so many fighting champions who competed and trained together, Bruce Lee was the only one who was a loser?
Let¡¯s take a look at the martial arts gym opened by Bruce Lee. There are paid apprentices and some free students. The fee-paying apprentice is naturally to support his family, and as long as he is willing to fight with him, he can do it for free, because he regards the martial arts gym as a laboratory for the improvement of Jeet Kune Do's actual combat.
Since 1966, Bruce Lee began to wear protective gear and compete with boxing, taekwondo, judo, wrestling disciples and martial arts masters at least twice a week.
In addition, Bruce Lee¡¯s disciples or competitors have a characteristic. Most of them are black belt masters of a certain martial arts, and they are all older than him. Including the old Chinese National Games boxing champion Li Kai, boxing and judo master Feng Tianlun who has many boxing Golden Gloves disciples, stick king Iru Santo, boxing champion Bastillo, and the father of American Taekwondo Li Junjiu, Pan American Judo champion Hayward Xiaoben, kickboxing master and main promoter of MMA Joe Lewis, etc.
Bruce Lee not only had a common training experience with the "Father of American Judo" Jenny LeBel, but as early as the early 1960s, Bruce Lee had a long-lasting friendship with the gold medal coach of the American Judo National Team and Jiu-Jitsu master Xie Hualiang (also known as Willy Jay). Mr. Xie Hualiang not only admired Bruce Lee very much, but also taught him his small circuit jujitsu. Mr. Xie Hualiang specifically mentioned Bruce Lee in his jujitsu monograph, saying that Bruce Lee's lock-grabbing power was the most powerful he had ever seen. The strongest in that class. One of the prefaces to Bruce Lee's first book "Basic Chinese Boxing" was written by Mr. Xie.
Jenny LeBel, the father of American judo, said of Bruce Lee: "His punch speed is twice as fast as that of ordinary people. His boxing skills, footwork and kicking skills are truly outstanding If there is a warrior who is king, Bruce Lee is the king." The King of Kingshe was the most outstanding top player of his era."
Li Junjiu, the father of American Taekwondo, said again: "Let me tell you, this young man is indeed unparalleled. I broke four wooden boards with my jumping kick, and a few days later, he dropped four helpless wooden boards out of thin air with a side kick." Just kick them to pieces. I can't believe it."
Not only that, Leonard, the former American professional boxing champion who was selected as one of the "Top Ten Greatest Boxers of the 20th Century", believed that it was the method taught to him by Bruce Lee that made his jab fast, accurate and powerful. He was even more inspired by Bruce Lee's scientific training methods.
Former world karate champion Louis Dilgoda believed that his sparring session with Bruce Lee was a terrifying experience: if you adopt a defensive approach, you will only be passively beaten, but if you take the initiative, you will only receive a more severe counterattack.
There are countless celebrities who praised Bruce Lee without reservation, but for Chinese people who hate Bruce Lee, the above-mentioned celebrities are either praising Bruce Lee, or they are selectively ignoring them.
The three of them were talking about Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do. Kikuko Oyama, who was sitting on her knees and pretending to be a lady, unknowingly leaned forward, resting her elbows on the coffee table and holding her cheeks in her palms. She looked at her father for a while, and then for a moment. Wang Zijun's eyes flickered and blinked.
"Ahem!" Dashan Beida finally noticed his daughter's bad sitting posture and coughed twice as a reminder.
Kikuko Oyama immediately knelt straight, her little face tensed, her eyes rolling around, and she suddenly said: "Mr. Wang, I heard that you are a Chinese Kung Fu master, how about you have a fight with Senior Brother Chiba?"
¡°Forget it, I¡¯m just an actor.¡± Wang Zijun smiled.
Dashan Beida wanted to blame his daughter for being rude, but when he saw his daughter looking at him, he immediately changed his mind and said, "In that case, let us see Mr. Wang's Chinese boxing skills."
When Qianye Zhen saw the teacher speaking, he immediately turned around and bowed to Wang Zijun: "Please give me some advice, Mr. Wang."
Wang Zijun saw that Oyama Kikuko was smiling proudly at him, so he couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree silently.
In the past, when Wang Zijun and Bruce Lee competed, they had to wear protective gear. It's a pity that Kyokushin Karate advocates full contact, and no protective gear is worn even in official competitions. Wang Zijun is really afraid that this friendly competition will hurt others, whether it hurts himself or Chiba Shinichi.
