There are a large number of martial arts fans in my country, especially at the end of the last century, when martial arts ** was popular, almost every boy had a martial arts dream. With the decline of martial arts and the spread of Western culture, no one seems to have any interest in Chinese martial arts anymore, and even in the eyes of many people, Chinese martial arts are a laughing stock. So how should we put Chinese martial arts in perspective?
In fact, Chinese martial arts can be divided into traditional martial arts and modern martial arts, modern martial arts have a showdown, that is, flower boxing and embroidered legs, and broadcast gymnastics is not much different, there are also martial arts competitions in the Olympic Games, not who can fight more, but who is more beautiful.
On the beauty of martial arts, the kung fu emperor Jet Li is one of the best, he has won the national martial arts championship many times, one move and one style is chic and beautiful, and in the "Huang Feihong" and "Fang Shiyu" series, Jet Li shows his beautiful kung fu to the fullest, which is thanks to his years of martial arts skills.
This kind of martial art can't be practiced, and Jet Li has personally admitted it. But it's not that Jet Li doesn't have any actual combat ability, it's just that these routines we see are all fancy fists and embroidered legs. And actual combat pays attention to speed and strength, Jet Li After years of hard training, the speed and strength are definitely several times that of ordinary people, so if compared with the professional boxing champion, Jet Li will definitely not be able to beat, but if compared with the common people, basically as many fights as possible.
Because after the founding of the People's Republic of China, what we advocated was to strengthen the body and resist fighting, killing and killing, and now it is a legal society, so the so-called modern martial arts have become a way to exercise the body. But it cannot be said that traditional martial arts do not have actual combat capabilities.
Traditional martial arts can definitely be fought, why has it become a showmanship now? There is only one reason, you can't eat when you practice martial arts. All behaviors of human society are economy-oriented, a few years ago, e-commerce was hot, everyone opened **, and now since ** is hot, everyone comes to live broadcast to bring goods. To put it bluntly, it's what you do to make money.
So in ancient times, having a good martial arts was naturally a magic weapon for survival. Some people are good at culture, some people are brave and ruthless, and in the era of cold weapons, the war between people is completely manpower, so many well-known generals were born, whether it is Guan Yu or Xiang Yu, they are all a generation of famous generals, these people are basically useless now, no matter how high the kung fu is, they are afraid of kitchen knives, not to mention that now it is information warfare, a missile comes, and people don't even know how to die.
It is impossible for flesh and blood to compete with gunpowder, even in the Qing Dynasty, and even in the Ming Dynasty, there are records of artillery attacks. People are powerless in the face of guns, which also explains why China has always been a superpower in ancient times, but not in the late Qing Dynasty, because Westerners no longer "fight for the grid" and began to play with guns.
The Westerners with strong ships and guns have opened the door to China, and no matter how brave our soldiers are, it is impossible to resist the modern **. From this time on, martial arts were basically useless. It is said that learning literature and martial arts and selling goods to the emperor's family, but now it is useless to have a body of martial arts, who wants to take the time to learn it?
As the saying goes, "poor literature and rich martial arts", learning culture often does not cost much, so there are often poor talents to go to the imperial examination, and learning martial arts often requires a lot of money, the first to please, the second to buy ** and equipment, and the third to eat and drink well. Just like today's people fitness, they not only have to buy fitness equipment, but also supplement nutrition, buy supplies, eat beef, and have free time. Therefore, practicing martial arts has been a nerve-wracking and costly thing since ancient times.
Even now, there are still some real warriors, but they are relatively low-key. Because they have too little room to show their talents, they can't always find someone to fight, so they can only be regarded as a hobby, and the hobby is destined to be incomparable with the profession. It is said that "don't compare your interests with other people's professions", and you can't practice too advanced kung fu by playing casually. Collector Ma Weidu once said: "No matter what you do, if you want to make some achievements, you will definitely not be able to study hard." ”
And in the era of cold weapons, having a good kung fu has almost everything. Take the police arresting thieves as an example, a few criminal police with guns catch bad guys without guns, and the strength of the two sides is very different, even if we encounter extremely vicious drug dealers, we still have special forces to cooperate with the anti-narcotics police to exterminate and arrest, and the strength of the two sides is still not at the same level. In ancient times, the head catcher had a big knife in his hand, and the thief also had a hidden weapon in his hand. There is no gap between the two sides, so it creates a major obstacle to the arrest work. Therefore, the rate of solving cases in ancient times was very low, and even if they saw the so-called "criminal suspects", they might not be able to arrest the bad guys without good skills, and they would lose their lives if they didn't do well.
Therefore, the ancients admired martial arts very much, because in the most backward era, whoever is strong and dares to start can become a tyrant. Just like the heroes of Liangshan, each with unique skills, the official can't help it, if it is replaced now, the country directly mobilizes the troops of a company, with a heavy **, and any heroes in the rivers and lakes are in vain. Speaking of which, I think of Yanzi Li San, this is a person with real kung fu, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time, in the 80s of the last century, he has gradually entered the era of hot weapons, and Li San, who has a stunt, is also the capture of official uniforms. The fifth king of the big knife also waved the big knife towards the foreigners, and was finally beaten into a sieve. Lao Wang has real kung fu, but unfortunately real kung fu is vulnerable when it encounters guns.
Since practicing martial arts can't beg for food, can't save your life, and has no advantages, everyone is naturally reluctant to learn martial arts, after all, people's energy is limited, and they will spend their time on more important things. But traditional martial arts can be completely combated, but they are far less exaggerated than martial arts.
The two of them are all lightning in the moment, basically within half a minute to divide the victory and defeat, or even life and death. So when you are living and dying, everyone uses killer moves, and they will not turn back and forth like TV dramas to try. Modern boxing, mixed martial arts and other competitions, although closer to actual combat, are still not actual combat, and there are many rules to follow. If it's a real fight, then it's the only goal to knock down the opponent.
As a senior martial artist said, in fact, there are many killer moves in Chinese martial arts, such as when two people are playing, one person uses his fingers to pick any part of the other party, which will cause great damage, but this move is obviously not allowed to be used. In addition, the training of professional competitions is more scientific and systematic, and traditional martial arts are only for aesthetics, so the gap between Chinese martial arts and Western fighting techniques is getting wider and wider.
