Wushu has good ornamental value, why can't it be popularized well?

Chatting with the Taekwondo coach. The coach retired from the national team and talked about martial arts, taekwondo, Sanda, Muay Thai, and some differences between competition and fighting. People also say that the disadvantage of Taekwondo in the Olympic Games is obvious in self-defense. When fighting, self-defense in the street is not as good as boxing, exercise, competition and exercise. In this respect, taekwondo, karate and Olympic boxing are another kind of "pragmatism", that is, they cater to the Olympic spiritual civilization and friendly fighting events, relatively reduce the training intensity and the risk of injury in actual combat, and pay attention to physical and mental exercise. The audience will naturally be wider.

To put it bluntly, people take the "entry" business route. Coupled with their respective "martial arts", the propaganda of their respective countries, and the aura of the "Olympic Games", their popularity must be very high. There are also local organizations, alliances, small circles, certification levels, "popular" routes, Taekwondo and other forms of competitions, such as actual competitions, quality competitions and breakthrough competitions, which will certainly be well promoted. Taoist temple also helps parents solve the problem of "parenting" in a certain period of time. Parents are naturally willing to send them to learn something, which is conducive to promotion and more popular with ordinary people.

Jiu Jitsu, Sanda, Muay Thai and professional boxing are all fighting abilities and have strong self-defense ability. However, some people are unwilling to suffer. Like the Jiu Jitsu teacher I met in A Jiu, he often faces a problem. In class, some students suffocate because of naked strangulation, which leads to students' psychological shadow and leads to students not coming.

Finally, I want to say that in modern times, martial arts and fighting events, you can't simply understand it as a kind of "martial arts", but should regard it as a commodity, whether it is competition or fighting. When you regard it as a business activity and everything is easy to explain, the promotion of Wushu in China is not good. It can only be said that the sales methods are too poor, and there is no competition or fighting, all for viewing, which is fatal. On the one hand, there is no reform in competition and struggle. On the other hand, Wushu has not been reformed.
