Ip Man 葉問

Ip Man, who is he?

He is the superhero in superhero comic series and video game. 
IP Man was conceived in the mid-1970's by a little known entity named DARPA. DARPA was a wise but unseen body who wanted to help the world exchange information between computer system at research institutions. IP Man began his quest to unite computers and dissimilar devices in the late 1970's. Today, he works night and day, reducing LD minute rates and guarding against irritating Noise, Jitter and Echo.   -- from http://www.ipmanadventures.com/

 Wow! It should be favored by most nerds who like computer science and sci-fi (like Vineeth.)

====================WHAT THE HELL IS THIS??=========================

Let's watch some old clips first, and then figure who on earth Ip Man is?




Come on Michael, that is Bruce Lee.

Yeah, exactly, the man in clips is Bruce Lee, the super martial art hero icon from Hong-Kong. I think everyone knows him very well. Ahhh-Dahhhh. He is the fonder of the famous martial art system: Jeet Kune Do 截拳道, which emphasizes "practicality, flexibility, speed, and efficiency," and is the main martial art type played in his movie.

So, who is Ip man?

Left: Bruce Lee; Right: Ip Man
Ip Man (or Yip Man) is the master of Bruce Lee, and the first master who started to teach what he learned from his master publicly, the Wing Chun 詠春, which means, in Chinese, forever spring.

Let's look how the Wing Chun is played.

The tutorial of Wing Chun.


Demonstrated by Ip Man and his son.


Bruce Lee's movie again.


In the movie, "Ip Man", Ip man challenges 10 Japanese Karate students in front of Japanese Army General.


Final theme. Battle between Ip Man and the General.


Fascinating!! That's why I want to see "Ip Man 2" sooooooo much.
