I want to teach myself martial arts, recommend better traditional kung fu and strengthen self-defense.

Find a master with real talent and practical learning. All factions have masters. Zhang Yukun of Zhaoyuan County, for example, has a simple and honest personality and never makes public. He lived in seclusion in the corner of the city for more than ten years, repairing bicycles; He is sixty years old, but he has repeatedly fought in the Wulin and won 13 times; He is a farmer, but he always defends the sanctity of Wushu and shoulders the heavy responsibility of inheritance.

"Remember, our Liuhe Manta Boxing can be a masterpiece in China martial arts, so we must not lose it." "Xiu De must be the first to practice martial arts, and this skill must never be passed on to people who are not on the right track." On March 6th, Kloc-0, Zhang Yukun, an old boxer, once again gave pre-school martial arts education to the disciples who came to study in the Liuhe Manta Boxing Kung Fu Room in Yukun. Although his words are simple, they all reveal the sense of social responsibility of a martial artist.

Teacher Zhang is 6 1 year old. He is from Beiguan Village, Zhaoyuan, Luo Feng, with a height of 1 m 67. Although Tang Yin is over 60 years old, he is radiant. It's just a simple and honest character, and it's hard to make people believe that he is a hidden martial arts master. However, when I walked into his life, I felt a legendary and colorful life, especially his low-key, fortitude and integrity, which made people admire.

An ordinary bicycle mechanic hides a little-known hard work. ...

In the impression of Zhaoyuan citizens, he is an ordinary bicycle repairman-"Bicycle Lao Zhang". As early as more than 30 years ago, in order to support his family, he started a car repair business in front of a restaurant in the north of the village. Because of his intelligence and enthusiasm, his business soon became famous and spread widely. Whenever you have time, go to Zhaoyuan Liuhe Mantis disciple Wen Guoxiang to learn from the scriptures. Five years later, his master Wen Guoxiang pointed out that to learn the true biography of Liuhe Mantis, he must learn from his brother Zhao. But loyal ministers don't serve two masters. How could the kind Zhang Yukun be willing to leave the master Wen who lived together day and night? Seeing the embarrassment, Master Wen immediately took it to his brother's house: "He is a good material for practicing martial arts. Please accept it. " When Zhang Yukun saw the master in front of him, he immediately knelt down and said, "Teacher Zhao, don't worry, I will devote myself to Liuhe Manta Boxing, and I will never embarrass you." In the next few months, I went to ask Mr. Zhao for advice as soon as I was free. Zhao saw that he had a good foundation and a persistent attitude, and accepted him as an introductory disciple at the end of the year.

Master Zhao is a relatively low-key boxer. He often warned his disciples: be kind to others, be generous to others, and never show others easily. Because of this teacher's teaching, Zhang Yukun's martial arts practice was arranged in the evening. Every time in the dead of night, he secretly went out to practice Liuhe Mantis Boxing, Liuhe Breaking Bad Knife, Liuhe Breaking Bad Stick and Liuhe Big Gun at the foot of Zhaoyuan Xishan Mountain. Teacher Zhao once predicted that if you work so hard, you can master the essence of Liuhe Quan within three years.

The teacher's praise enhanced Zhang Yukun's confidence in learning. Since then, whenever he has free time, he has practiced with martial arts equipment. However, something unexpected happened. Just when he made great achievements, an unexpected disability accident put him to a severe test. 1988, all three fingers of his right hand were unfortunately cut off because of fireworks.

"This is definitely a heavy blow to ordinary people, and the master has once squeezed a sweat for me."

Because he will no longer be able to become attached to knives and sticks.

However, despite his stubbornness, he solemnly told his master that he would never give up. Since then, he has changed his martial arts style, changing all his right fist postures into his left fist postures. Similarly, his right hand with a knife and a stick became his left hand with a stick, and he persisted for three years until his left hand acted like a right hand. For this, I don't know how many times I fell and how many times I was stabbed.

"I can't believe you will change your left knife and right stick. I'm afraid it's hard to fall on my head. "

Master Zhao He Chun looked at his lover so obsessed and persistent that his heart naturally gained a little more trust. Whenever he has time, he calls his lover to his side and teaches him what he has learned all his life. At the same time, I also warned my followers: don't show off easily, don't show off martial arts, and don't punch unless you have to. Simple and honest, he respects the teacher and is deeply hidden. He repairs cars in the street during the day and practices what he has learned at night. Because of this, at dusk of 1994, the master solemnly declared Zhang Yukun as the fifth generation "top disciple" of Zhaoyuan Liuhe Manta Boxing.

"To tell you the truth, if people knew at that time, I would be considered as an idle person. If it is not good, it will be made clear by the Public Security Bureau. "

It's true. It coincided with the end of the Cultural Revolution. If it really appears from time to time, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble. It was not until the film Shaolin Temple was staged and the martial arts craze rose in the whole country that he walked from behind the scenes to the front desk, opened his own martial arts training class and became a veritable boxer. In July, 2006, with the support of the leaders of Yantai Wushu Association, Zhang Yukun officially established the Kungfu Hall of Manta Boxing in Yukun Liuhe, Yantai City, and has been teaching to the public since then. He is getting older, but he has fought many times and won the championship. ...

1August, 993, the international mantis boxing competition, which had been sleeping for many years, was held in Yantai. Zhang Yukun, who shouldered the heavy responsibility of "No.1 Scholar" of mantis boxing, resolutely found the Municipal Sports Commission to sign up for the competition, regardless of his family's obstruction. The leader of the Sports Commission saw that he was 44 years old and advised him not to take risks, but Zhang Yukun refused and conducted a drill on the spot. The leader of the Sports Commission was shocked: "Good fist, that's really hard for you." Zhang Yukun doesn't care about all this: "You just need to help me win the qualification, and you don't care about anything else." On August 29, at the age of 44, he successfully entered the circle. Faced with the challenge of hundreds of players, he made it through all the way and quickly won the first gold medal in the middle-aged group.

In the following years, Zhang Yukun took it as his mission to improve the level of Wushu and carry forward the spirit of Wushu. Every time there is a big competition, he actively strives for it. Since 2002, he has participated in Yantai Traditional Wushu Competition, Yantai International China Kung Fu Folk Artists Wushu Competition, China Yantai International Wushu Festival Exchange Meeting, the first Hong Kong International Manta Boxing Conference, the preliminary contest of Yantai International Wushu Festival, Yuncheng Wulin League jointly organized by China Wushu Association and CCTV, the fourth Yantai Wushu Festival and International Manta Boxing League, Maijishan Cup, the first national farmer Wushu and China Tianshui Fuxi Wushu Conference, and CCTV Kanglong Wulin Competition. He and his disciples won 50 gold medals, 27 silver medals and 6 bronze medals in the third World Traditional Wushu Championship, and he won 13 gold medals in the middle period. It can be said that it is invincible and brave in the Wulin.

In 2005, he was named as one of the top ten boxers in Yantai with his exquisite and wonderful Liuhe mantis boxing, unstoppable Liuhe single knife and elusive Liuhe big gun technique. Shortly thereafter, he was invited as the vice president of Yantai International Manta Boxing Association. In April 2007, Zhang Yukun was appointed as the honorary president of the World Wulin Elite of Hong Kong Manta Boxing Association, and his disciple Zhang Jiangang was also specially appointed as the honorary president of the World Wulin Elite of Hong Kong Manta Boxing Association.

In May, 2007, in the China Yuncheng Wulin League, Zhang Yukun Liuhe Mantis Boxing competed with 16 famous boxing types, including Henan Shaolin Boxing, Henan Tai Ji Chuan Boxing, Hebei Baguazhang Boxing, Tianjin Fuzzy Boxing and Sichuan Emei Boxing, and each of them showed its elegant demeanor, which was well received by the participating experts. After the meeting, his name will be engraved on the tall Taishan stone forever. In 2008, in the CCTV Kanglong Wulin Competition, he and his disciple Zhang Jiangang fought wits and bravely and reached the quarterfinals in one fell swoop. I am honored to be selected as a judge of the competition. In June, 2008, the Wushu Management Center of the State General Administration of Sport sent Zhang Yukun to represent China in the 3rd World Traditional Wushu Championship sponsored by the International Wushu Federation and the Chinese Wushu Association. At the age of 60, he and 2680 Wushu athletes from 69 countries and regions, including Britain, America, Poland, Russia and Greece, gathered in Wudang Mountain, and won the third place in the elderly group by only 0.06 points, winning glory for the country.

His deeds soon spread all over the country, and many media targeted the martial artist with stunts. But in the face of countless shots and gold medals, he never makes public. He often said: competitions and gold medals, honor and status are external things, and a valuable martial artist really values martial arts itself. Because of this, he has won wide respect from the martial arts circles in China.

He is a farmer, but he always defends the sanctity of Wushu and shoulders the heavy responsibility of inheritance. ...

In Zhang Yukun's body, the simplicity and simplicity of farmers are always revealed, especially with the rise of martial arts fever, he is full of confidence in the development of Liuhe Mantis. In addition, the reputation has been greatly improved, and people who have studied for a time have gathered. As a "scholar", he is well aware of his heavy responsibility: inheriting the essence of Wushu and defending its dignity.

It is reported that Liuhe Manta Boxing featuring actual combat (also known as Liuhe Manta Boxing) is based on Cangzhou Liuhe Boxing and absorbs the essence of Manta Boxing and other boxing types. Boxing includes all ten sets of "gold exchange" stunts, and the instruments cover knives, guns and sticks. Mr. Wei Deling, the founder of the middle and late Qing Dynasty, punched and kicked 72 fists, without losing. After being searched by the Qing government for a lifetime, the Great Wall is famous both inside and outside. After settling in Zhaoyuan in his later years, he became a disciple, which has been inherited by the second generation grandmaster Lin Shichun, the third generation grandmaster Zhao and the fourth generation grandmaster for more than 200 years. Because this boxing is based on actual combat and its moves are fierce, Wulin people call it "Jianghu Black Boxing". However, Zhao, the founder of four generations, gave Liuhe Mantis Boxing a revolutionary legend: 1937 After the full-scale outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Zhao resolutely joined the Jiaodong guerrillas. He broke the rules of his ancestors, passed on his lifelong knowledge to anti-Japanese fighters, and trained a large number of anti-Japanese heroes. On the battlefield, some soldiers were outnumbered by six, which made Japanese soldiers tremble with fear. This legend has made this kind of boxing famous all over the world.

Considering the fierce fighting skills of boxing, Zhang Yukun strictly abides by the master's orders when choosing his disciples: those who are not virtuous, those who are disloyal, those who have no determination and those who don't work hard.

In July 2005, three young people from other places came here and asked, "How much does it cost to complete your boxing?" Such a question immediately bored Zhang Yukun: "The person I like never spends money." See three people export nonsense, Zhang Yukun declined on the spot, touched a face of gray three people had to disgruntled. What is even more legendary is that in March 2007, two Japanese youths stopped him who just won the gold medal certificate in the Hong Kong International Wushu Competition: "Teacher Zhang, your kung fu is really amazing. Can we buy out your patent right for 6.5438+0 million yuan? " "Hey, guys, it's really fresh, but do you know that this fist is not mine, it belongs to our country, and I dare not give it away casually?" Lao Zhang's clever answer made the Japanese blindsided.

Now, Zhang Yukun is over 60 years old. In the face of medal after medal, he naturally has some glory in his heart, but what worries him more is the inheritance of Liuhe Manta Boxing. To this end, he and his disciples carefully designed the webpage of China Liuhe Manta Boxing to publicize the historical origin, development and evolution, martial arts equipment and boxing characteristics of Zhaoyuan Liuhe Manta Boxing. Make more than 2000 CDs and send them to the State Sports Commission and CCTV Sports Channel; Every time there is an activity, he will bring his own CD and give it to friends and experts. At the same time, he also consulted the relevant departments for many times about the development and suggested that it should be established as a good martial arts project. I, on the other hand, am determined to overcome the low cultural constraints and have been sorting out relevant materials with my disciples and painting them into a book for publication. His persistence and sincerity also deeply touched the comrades of the village Committee and the Municipal Cultural Bureau. For this reason, the village specially prepared a kung fu room for him, and the city listed Liuhe mantis boxing as an intangible cultural heritage declaration.
