Zi, whose ancestral home is in Anletun, Dongguang, Hebei Province, lives in Xiaonanhe Village, Jinghai, Tianjin. He is the founder of the Sports Association and a famous patriotic martial artist in modern times.
Huo Yuanjia was sickly when he was young. His father, Huo, is a famous secret boxing master. He was worried that Yuan Jia's martial arts would damage the reputation of the Huo family in the future and refused to teach him art. However, Yuan Jia was ambitious and kept an eye on it every day, observing everywhere and 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 and is the best among the brothers. Seeing this, my father changed his old ideas and taught him carefully. Later, the Yuan family took martial arts as their friends and integrated the strengths of various families to develop the ancestral "secret boxing" into "mysterious boxing", which made the ancestral boxing reach a new peak.
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 Xuantong Yuannian (1909), the British strongman Ou Paiyin advertised in Shanghai and slandered me as "the sick man of East Asia". Huo Yingyou was invited to Shanghai for an appointment. Being awed by Huo Yuanjia's fist, the other party threatened Tiger Gold, and Yuanjia, with the support of his friends, promised to mortgage Tiger Gold. The other party repeatedly delayed, and Yuan Jia advertised in the newspaper, saying, "The world laughs at China as a sick country, and I am a sick man in a sick country, and I am willing to try with healthy people all over the world." He claimed that "he specializes in recruiting foreign giants. Although they are steel, they have nothing to worry about! " Huo Gong's prestige made Ou Pian run away, even the notary and organizer ran away.
19 10 June 10, Huo Yuanjia founded the China Gymnastics Club (later renamed as the Sports Club) in Shanghai with the assistance of his martial arts colleagues such as Nong. Dr. Sun Yat-sen praised Huo Yuanjia's belief that "a strong country will dominate, and everyone will practice martial arts", as well as his noble character and moral integrity, which made Huojia Boxing known to the world. He personally wrote four characters of "Martial Spirit" and presented them to Jason Wu Sports Association. 19 10 In September, the president of Japan Judo Association led more than ten martial arts masters to compete with Huo, who defeated him. The Japanese hosted a banquet. During the dinner, Huo choked and coughed, and recommended Japanese doctors for treatment. Huo Gong lived an open life and died of accidental poisoning in September 14. At the age of 42.
The post-Shanghai Jason Wu Association was taught by Yuanjia's younger brother Yuan Qing and his second son Dong Ge. Branches have been set up in various places. After more than ten years, Jason Wu has 43 branches at home and abroad with more than 400,000 members.
Megatron Western Hercules
In the history of modern martial arts in China, there is a legendary hero Huo Yuanjia. He has outstanding martial arts, upholds justice and has a strong desire to serve the country and prosper the country. In Tianjin and Shanghai, he successively competed with Russian and British foreign giants, defeated foreign foreign giants and won glory for the Chinese nation.
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.
Huo Yuanjia is a legendary martial arts master in the late Qing Dynasty, and he is famous at home and abroad. He is full of patriotic enthusiasm and a strong desire to avenge his country and resist foreign aggression. In Tianjin, Shanghai and other places, he revered the spirit of Western Hercules with awe-inspiring righteousness and superb martial arts, which made Chinese people proud and excited. Huo Yuanjia combined with the current situation, discussed with farmers and others, and with the help of friends in the martial arts field, established "China Gymnastics Club" (later renamed as Sports Club) in early June of 1909, fully preaching that everyone must be martial if he wants to become a strong country.
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, Huo Fengyuanjia suffered another injury during the competition because of choking cough, so he 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 wanted to take Huo Yuanjia out of the hospital, but Akino blocked him in every way and let him leave the hospital after many twists and turns. Chen Zi, a colleague of Jason Wu Club, was being treated, but she was too poisoned to be cured. He died in Jason Wu Sports Association on September 1909. 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. I see. It is Japanese.
After Huo Yuanjia's death, disciples of Wu Jinghui and patriots of Shanghai Wushu held a grand funeral for Huo Yuanjia, and presented an elegiac couplet of "Different people have different opinions", which was buried in the northern suburb of Shanghai. The following year, disciples helped to send the coffin back to Li and moved it to the south of Xiaonanhe Village.
