Life of Huo Yuanjia
Huo Yuanjia was born in a fan family. His father, Huo Dean, is a bodyguard. Because of Huo's amazing idolize boxing, many big businessmen hired him as a bodyguard. Huo only shoots the poor and innocent, and never guards corrupt officials. Huo Dean has three sons: Huo Yuandong, Huo Yuanjia and Huo Yuanqing, and Yuanjia is the second. It is said that Huo Yuanjia was weak since childhood, and his father Huo refused to let him practice martial arts, fearing that Yuan Jia's practicing martial arts would damage her family's reputation in the future, and refused to teach him art, but Yuan Jiazhi kept an eye on the lofty ideals and observed everywhere, stealing his father's art and passing it on to his brothers. Practicing hard in the seclusion of Zaolin outside the house. After the father knows, he is responsible. Yuanjia promised never to compete with others and not to humiliate the appearance of the Huo family, so that his father and brother could practice martial arts together. Yuanjia is talented and has amazing perseverance, while his brother is overactive. He stood out among the brothers and defeated a 24-year-old who defeated Huo Yuanjia's brother and younger brother in five minutes. Seeing this, my father changed his old ideas and taught him carefully. After the Yuan family made friends with martial arts, they integrated the strengths of each family and developed the ancestral "secret boxing" into "mystery boxing", which made the ancestral boxing reach a new peak. Later, Huo Yuanjia created his own mysterious boxing.
As an adult, Huo Yuanjia managed a pharmacy in Tianjin, and later came to Shanghai to hold the "Jason Wu Games" (Jingwumen), which made great contributions to the development of martial arts in China. In Shanghai, he once defeated the Russian Hercules in the ring (one said that the Russian Hercules was defeated by Huo Yuanjia himself, and the other said that the Russian Hercules gave up the competition only after hearing Huo Yuanjia's reputation). On one occasion, a Japanese Hercules group came to China to ask for a tournament, and Huo Yuanjia sent his disciple Liu Zhensheng to participate in the tournament because of illness. As a result, I defeated Japanese Lux. Huo Yuanjia founded Jason Wu Sports Club in 19 10. One of the reasons why Huo Yuanjia founded Jason Wu Sports Club is that he thinks that China's martial arts should not be classified. We should learn from the strengths of many schools, make their own martial arts progress and carry forward our martial arts (Mr. Bruce Lee is similar to this). But Huo Yuanjia died a few months after he founded the Jason Wu Sports Association. Yuanjia was poisoned by the Chamber of Commerce and died. In the 22nd year of Guangxu reign (1896), Liu Zhensheng, a great Shandong warrior, came to Tianjin to worship God at the entrance of Yuanjia. Huo Chaqi's integrity made him a disciple. From then on, it broke the precedent of Huo Jiaquan's "internal transmission but not external transmission". Yuan is brave and righteous. In the 24th year of Guangxu (1898), Tan Sitong was killed in the political reform, and the broadsword Wang Wu (Wang Zibin) took refuge in Guinness and became close friends with Yuanjia. After Wang Zibin was killed in Beijing, he was made public by Eight-Nation Alliance. Yuanjia and Liu Zhensheng sneaked into the capital and stole back to the top of the mountain. With the help of Liu E, the author of Travel Notes of Lao Can, they were buried together and made friends.
In the 27th year of Guangxu (190 1), a Russian came to Tianjin and performed in a theater. He advertised in the newspaper, claiming to be the world's first Hercules, and played all over China. Huo Yuanjia saw the advertisement and heard that the Russians also made irresponsible remarks on the spot, insulting the incompetence of China people. He was very angry. He immediately invited Nong Sun Jin, the owner of Huaiqing Hall, and his apprentice Liu Zhensheng to go to the theatre, and saw the Russian Hercules boasting that he was "the world's first Hercules" on the stage. If the "sick man's country" has the ability, it can compete on the stage. Huo Yuanjia couldn't sit still in the audience, regardless of everyone's dissuasion. He sprang onto the stage and said bluntly, "I am Huo Yuanjia, the sick man of East Asia, and I would like to compete with you on this stage." At this time, the translator informed the Russians about Huo Yuanjia's life. When the Russians heard about Huo Yuanjia's prestige, they dared not neglect it. He hurriedly let Huo Yuanjia into the background. Huo Yuanjia accused the Russians on the spot: "Why insult me, China?" And put forward three conditions: first, re-advertise, to get rid of the saying that Russians are "the world's number one"; The second is to ask the Russians to publicly admit their mistakes in insulting China and publicly apologize; Otherwise, it is the third condition: my teacher Huo will get to the bottom of it and order him to make a decisive decision. How dare a bully is always a coward's Russian lux take part in the competition? Therefore, I have to agree to the first two conditions. I am willing to publish a newspaper to correct and publicly admit my mistake of despising the people of China, and thus leave Tientsin despondently.
In the winter of Xuantongyuan (1909), a British strongman named Ou Pian came to Shanghai and set up a field in Bird, insulting Huawei as the "sick man's country" and the people as the "sick man of East Asia". At the invitation of friends from Shanghai Wulin, Huo Yuanjia took Nong He to Shanghai, and made an appointment with Aoping to cover his shame for the sick man. Opiin first threatened to ask for a deposit of 10 thousand yuan, and then postponed the game until June of that year. Before the competition, Huo Yuanjia set up a challenge in Bird and advertised in English. The article said, "The world laughs at China as a sick country. I am a sick person in this sick country. I am willing to work with healthy people in the world!" And declared that "exclusive collection of foreign Hercules, although there are copper ribs and iron bones, no worries!" On the day of the game, Aoping was scared to run away. Huo Yuanjia had a great influence on the Russian and British strongmen, erased the shame of "the sick man of East Asia" for the Chinese nation, inspired the ambition of the people of China, and was admired and admired by hundreds of millions of compatriots.
On June 19 1 00, Huo Yuanjia founded "China Gymnastics Club" (later renamed as Sports Club) in Shanghai with the help of martial arts colleagues such as Nong. Dr. Sun Yat-sen praised Huo Yuanjia's belief that "to make the country strong, everyone should practice martial arts" and his lofty spirit of making Huojiaquan known to the world. He personally wrote four characters of "Martial Spirit" and presented them to Jason Wu Sports Association.
At that time, Penglai Road in Shanghai was a place where Japanese overseas Chinese lived together. The Japanese Judo Association learned that Huo Yuanjia had bravely defeated Russian and British Hercules, and now it has established the Jason Wu Gymnastics Association. Not convinced, it specially selected a dozen martial arts experts from China, led by the president of Judo, and invited Huo Yuanjia and others to compete in the martial arts school in the name of research. Both parties have chosen their own notaries.
At the beginning of the game, Huo Yuanjia ordered his apprentice Liu Zhensheng to go out and let him try to win by luring the enemy. After Liu Zhensheng came on stage, he was as steady as Mount Tai. Japanese personnel thought there was an opportunity and used various tricks, but they did not shake him. Even if the Japanese side sent its greatest strength to fight, it was kicked to the ground by Liu Zhensheng and could not move. Liu Zhensheng's five-game winning streak is based on static braking and waiting for merit. The Japanese team leader was very angry when he saw this situation and went out to challenge Huo Yuanjia. On one occasion, the two men fought each other. After several rounds, the Japanese team leader learned of Huo Yuanjia's strength, so he tried to hurt people secretly. Behold, Huo Yuanjia saw the flaw and showed a trick. He broke his arm bone with his elbow on the spot. Seeing this situation, the Japanese players swarmed and were immediately stopped by a notary in China. At this time, the Japanese changed their strategy and hosted a banquet for Huo Yuanjia after the game. During the dinner, I heard that Huo Yuanjia had a choking cough, and this tournament was traumatic, so I introduced a doctor named Akino to treat Huo Yuanjia. Huo Yuanjia, who has been open-minded all his life, accepted it without a doubt. And keep Akino Hospital in Hongkou Baiduqiao. After taking the medicine, Huo Yuanjia's condition did not improve, but gradually deteriorated. At this time, the Jason Wu Club tried to take Huo Yuanjia out of the hospital, but Akino blocked it in every way. After many efforts, he was discharged from the hospital and was treated by Jason Wu Club colleague Chen Zizheng. Due to deep poisoning, there is no cure, and he died in Jason Wu Sports Association on September 19 10. Huo Yuanjia's disciples and friends took the medicine that Huo Yuanjia took every day to test, only to know that it was a bottle of chronic lung rot medicine, and that it was the secret enemy of the Japanese. He died at the age of 42.
