Who is the founder of Hongquan?

There is no clear founder of Hongquan in history, who founded it collectively for an organization.

In the 18th year of Qing Shunzhi (166 1), Zheng Chenggong founded the "Jinshan" in Taiwan Province, and in the 13th year of Qing Kangxi (1674), Hong Men founded it. The organization was founded with the name "Hongwu" of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so it was called Hong Men.

In the name of practicing martial arts, we carry out and engage in Hongquan practice, develop organizations, and publicize the idea of anti-Qing and regaining sight. Hubei Hongquan, alias Song Taizu, is said to be "Zhao Kuangyin ruled the world with thirty hands", named after the word "hand".

Such as: Master Hand, Seal Hand, vajrapani, etc. Due to the influence of Wudang, there are also routines such as Jiuguanshou and Laojuntang.

Red boxing can be divided into North Red Boxing and South Red Boxing. Nanpai Hongquan, also known as Hongjia Boxing, is the first of the fifteen boxing in Lingnan. The source of this boxing school is:

First, it originated from Shaolin Temple and was introduced to Guangdong from Henan and Fujian in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. The second is the martial arts created by Fujian tea merchant Hong Xiguan.

These two statements are generally closely related to Shaolin Temple. Another view is that the martial arts in the anti-Qing and anti-Ming organizations were not created by one person or one martial art, and there are two styles of martial arts in this school: one is the martial arts of long-distance attack;

The other is short bridge and narrow horse, short hand and close attack, close attack and close defense.
