After Bruce Lee passed away, why did his disciples have to marry his wife?

He was the first to see the future development trend of kung fu, a true pioneer. Stephen Chow, as the creator of "nonsensical comedy", has been recognized as a master of comedy. But this is such a master, but his heart has always admired a person, is the internationally renowned Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee is the first to make Chinese kung fu become "international" kung fu masters and actors, so that the original can only be enclosure of the self-appointed Chinese martial arts to the world, but also the first to explore the kung fu movie this kind of film categories, leading generations of people.

Chenggong once said, "Without Bruce Lee, there would be no me." Jet Li also once confessed, "Bruce Lee is my role model." Bruce Lee smashed the "sick man of East Asia" plaque, let the whole world see the power of China. But it was such a great martial artist and actor who died suddenly in 1973 at the age of 32.

After the death of Bruce Lee, Bruce Lee's disciples and friends, as well as all his moviegoers are very sad, and as Bruce Lee's wife, Linda Emery is a heart like a knife tears, since then she lost her beloved Bruce Lee forever, only with their 8-year-old son and 4-year-old daughter to rely on life.

Linda was born in 1945, nearly five years younger than Bruce Lee, and in 1963, when Linda and Bruce Lee were both studying at the University of Washington, she was introduced to Bruce Lee's Zhenfan School of Martial Arts by her friend Gay Suen, and became one of Bruce Lee's disciples.

Bruce Lee was in the midst of a breakup, and although he had martial arts to fill his life, he often felt sadness and pain. Linda admired Bruce Lee's self-confidence and strength, and at the same time sympathized with the misery caused by his devoted love, so she often cared for Bruce Lee and accompanied him out of the haze of lost love.

It is precisely for this reason that the two people slowly fell in love, to the time in 1964 when they entered the marriage hall, the next year for Bruce Lee gave birth to a son Li Guohao, 1969 when he gave birth to a daughter Li Xiangning, a family of four happy, but at this time Bruce Lee died suddenly because of heart disease, leaving Linda to raise the two children alone.

While Bruce Lee made a lot of movies before his death, Linda also left a small inheritance, but the two children grew up spending is not small, plus Linda missed Bruce Lee to the deep depression into a disease, the body is also relatively weak, often is not away from the medicine to live the days.

At this time, Bruce Lee's former disciple - a man called Tom Brick found Linda. Tom was an unknown writer, and his own income wasn't even considered high. But he resolutely stayed with Linda and began to take care of the large family.

Linda at first thought that Tom, as a student of Bruce Lee, was just trying to return the favor and might leave after a while. Who would have guessed that Tom would take care of them for ten years or so, and revealed his heart to Linda countless times, saying he wanted to marry Linda to take better care of the three of them.

Finally, Linda was touched, and in 1988, Linda married Tom. After the marriage, Tom slowly began to show changes, he often asked Linda about her past with Bruce Lee when he was lying next to her. Linda was already in love with Tom, so she told him everything.

The result of a year after the past, Linda can remember with Bruce Lee's story has been all known to Tom, even including her and Bruce Lee's girlfriends, are in the Tom's soft under Linda said out. At this time, Tom is more and more cold to Linda's family, he began to stay out all night, but also always looking for Linda quarrel.

So in 1990, Linda divorced Tom. It wasn't long after the divorce that Tom wrote a book about Bruce Lee's death, which naturally included stories about him that he had heard during his nearly two years as a couple with Linda.

Linda then realized that Tom was just trying to use her. Bruce Lee's global influence is still huge even today, let alone in the 1990s, when he was only a decade or so away. As a result, Tom's book was a bestseller all over the world as soon as it was published, allowing Tom to make money that he probably wouldn't have been able to make in several lifetimes.

Linda finally understands why Tom keeps insisting on marrying her, why he keeps prying into her story with Bruce Lee while taking care of her, and why he is no longer gentle and considerate after only one year of marriage, all for the sake of his own career and money.

In Linda's love is almost completely desperate, a stockbroker called Bruce into her world, good Bruce is really love her, the two since 1991 until now, are still very much in love with each other.

But after only two years of peace and quiet, Linda was plunged into infinite pain when her son, Lee, died unexpectedly on his 29th birthday in 1993, and if it wasn't for Bruce's constant companionship and the care of her daughter, Lee Heung-ning, she wouldn't have lasted through that period of darkness.

Today, Linda has settled in Seattle with the love of her life and is leading a happy and stable life, except that when she reads any report about Bruce Lee or even about martial arts, she still often thinks of Bruce Lee's tough and gentle face, and at this time, Bruce will take her into his arms, and that's how the two of them spent more than 20 years of their long life.

Bruce Lee, who studied under Wing Chun master Ip Man and others, fused Wing Chun and other Chinese martial arts with judo, taekwondo and other combat techniques to create his own version of Jeet Kune Do. In addition to his contributions to Chinese martial arts, he also had great achievements in kung fu movies, breaking the Western world's inherent impression of weak Chinese people, so that the world saw the power of the Chinese people.
