There is no comparison between people. Wanzong Huaneng became the president of the All-China Federation and was born with extraordinary martial arts. China martial arts masters studying in the United States recognized Wan Zonghua's position as the first master. But as a grandmaster, IP Man's martial arts are naturally more unfathomable. Ip Man is not only skilled in martial arts, but also superb in martial arts. He usually doesn't hit others, but only draws with them. Ip Man has always conveyed the idea that the martial arts of various sects are not high or low, and only martial artists are high or low. It's easy to beat others. Only by beating yourself can you be a real master.
Ip Man and Master Hong of Hong Quan, Wan of Wing Chun and Tai Chi all played martial arts, but each time they were tied. Ip Man defeated General San Pu, defeated the American boxing champion and defeated the American karate master, all of which were forced. In Ip Man's view, he won't take the initiative to defeat his opponent unless he has to. Wan met IP Man twice and was deeply moved by his martial arts and personality, so he took the initiative to write a letter of introduction for IP Man.
Don't think that Wan was beaten by an American master, which means that his martial arts are low, but only that the American master's martial arts are too high. Wan was beaten only to set off the high martial arts of American masters, which showed that IP Man's martial arts was even higher, because IP Man defeated American masters. In IP Man 4: The End, IP Man is the protagonist and Wan is only a supporting role, so Wan's martial arts is lower than IP Man's. In those movies that reflect Tai Ji Chuan, the leading actor who practices Tai Ji Chuan must be the best in martial arts.
To be sure, Wan is not bad. As for the duel failure and disability in the competition with Agins, I think it can be summarized as follows:
1. It was the Mid-Autumn Festival, a traditional festival in China. This is a very happy day. Ip Man has always wanted a letter of introduction, and he has already prepared it. It is not difficult to see that Wan does not exclude Ip Man. Although he and IP Man have some conflicting views on the inheritance of martial arts, as China people, they will help if they have difficulties. However, the sudden intrusion of American soldiers disrupted all this, causing him to have no confidence and not knowing the real reason for taking him away, which led him to have no confidence in the game.
When the American asked to compete with him, if her daughter broke in, she knelt down and begged the officer not to embarrass his father. Wan is very sad to see this scene, and his love for his daughter is obvious here. But it is precisely because of this that it has an impact in future competitions.
3. Tai Chi stresses both rigidity and softness. From this point of view, everything can beat Agins, but after all, Agins is the best in the Marine Corps, and he has fought many battles. They pay more attention to actual combat. Emphasize training your physical strength and explosiveness. The degree of combat resistance is definitely slightly higher than 10,000.
I feel that the root cause of his loss should be that the United States has developed a habitual thinking for many years, that is, everything should be "tolerated", which is why he has been educating his daughter so much and instilling this thought in him all the time. On the other hand, Wan himself is the president of China Hometown Association, and he wants to establish himself in a foreign country. He worries too much, which makes him timid and unable to give full play to his strength.
5. It should also be the need of the plot. Considering the development of the plot, if Wan defeated the Americans, there would be no Ip Man. The protagonist's aura needs the loss of Wan to set off the strength of Ip Man.
Well, on the whole, Wan's strength is not bad, but for various reasons, he still failed to win the game. This is the answer I summarized for you. I hope you like it!
In fact, Wan is also quite powerful. I think he was abused for several reasons.
First, Wan was put into prison, unable to eat, unable to sleep well and obviously weak, and then he was released to compete directly with the Americans. This should be a big reason.
Second, Wan's heart at this time should also be hit hard. When a person's morale is high, it is completely different from when he is down and out.
Third, Wan also has concerns about himself. When Wan's daughter was beaten, Wan told her daughter to endure it many times, which was deeply rooted in Wan's heart.
Fourth, Wan's personality determines that Wan has studied Tai Chi, but he is not the kind of person who is cruel in his bones, just like Zhang Wuji in "Eternal Dragon Slayer". Although he is amazing, fighting with others is always mediocre, but Qiao Feng is different. He is stronger when he is strong.
Because Chairman Wan was sent by the organization during the Anti-Japanese War, an underground traffic station was set up in Dingxiang Building in Anqiu County. In order not to expose himself, in contact with the enemy, it is the identity of the buddy Cai Shuigen, and it is a habit to grovel. Later, he went to the territory of the American imperialists and established the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce. In order to continue working in the future, he didn't anger the American army and let his guard down, so he didn't go all out and endure the loss.
Foreigners' boxing is a little weaker than that of Master Wan and Ip Man, not that Master Wan is worse, but that foreigners have developed muscles, which is somewhat similar to the hard qigong of foreigners in ancient China. That is to say, Master Wan is not as good as a foreigner when he fights ten fists.
In the previous contest, Master Wan gained the upper hand. Everything was Master Wan's final failure after being punched by foreigners.
And IP Man beat foreigners. How did IP Man win? Weakness, weakness of foreigners, or weakness of human body, kicking crotch, neck, armpit, etc.
China's kungfu pays attention to strengthening the body and nourishing the internal organs, from the inside out.
Foreigner's kung fu only pays attention to the exterior, such as Muay Thai, kicking a tree with his leg and breaking his leg. After lifting up, he will continue to kick and practice muscles. It doesn't hurt anyone to punch, but it will definitely hurt some parts of his body when he practices. Resulting in a shortened life span.
Wan is not bad, at least with IP Man. The performance in the plot is reasonable.
Ip Man was able to beat the American because of his own strength and because the American had a fight with Wan.
The Americans lost to the wheel war to some extent.
It can be clearly seen in the play that tens of thousands of Americans gained the upper hand at the beginning. However, due to the lack of lethality of the attack and the lack of actual combat experience, the Americans seized the flaw and led to defeat. But Americans themselves have undoubtedly suffered a lot.
Ip Man challenged the Americans almost the next day. Judging from the war situation, IP Man only narrowly won, and there was only a thin line between victory and defeat. When the American fell, Ip Man was seriously injured.
On the whole, Americans did well in the wheel war between the two owners. It's normal to be disabled, and it's thrilling for IP Man to win. Wan is not weak.
After watching the movie IP Man 4: The Last Chapter, I really feel sorry for Wan. Wan is the chairman of the All-China Federation and a descendant of Tai Ji Chuan. He can stand in America for many years, which shows that he is very strong. Americans dare not touch him, probably because they are afraid of his kung fu. Moreover, IP Man and Wan Er War shattered the tables with Qigong. This is a battle. Another game was tied among Wan Jia, and Ip Man injured his hand for protecting Wan's daughter. If it weren't for the injury, IP Man would have a better chance of winning. Wan is not the protagonist, there is a protagonist aura in the film and television drama. No matter how good it is, no matter how good Bruce Lee is, it can't take away IP Man's leading role, which can also be explained.
Tai Ji Chuan of 10,000 was both rigid and flexible, but Agins won with a fast pace. Remember Wan's Taiji formula? Put your head in your hands and you will sink into your abdomen. Why are you holding your hand? It's to protect your sports parts from harm! Tai Chi has a fixed routine. Although Wan Zonghua had certain advantages in the early stage, he also showed Agins his weakness. In the second round, Agins kicked Wan in the chest, and Agins's military boots had gears, which was very powerful. Wan should have suffered internal injuries! Ip Man and Agins are just the opposite when playing. First, Agins gained the upper hand, but in the second round, Ip Man finally fucked the Japanese and finally defeated Barton. This also shows that IP Man has strong adaptability. Not only did he know Jeet Kune Do, but he also did all kinds of kung fu, which made Agins unable to see the number of ways, so he lost miserably?
Thank you for being invited to answer:
Wan, the president of Huaren Street in Ip Man 4, is the only master who tied IP Man in the four films (the other two are Master Hong and He). However, in the face of Marine Corps officer Barton, President Wan and IP Man showed diametrically opposite performances: President Wan, who practiced Tai Chi, fell under Barton's iron fist, while IP Man knocked down the arrogant Barton.
As for why two people with similar kung fu have such different performances in the face of the same opponent? Here, ling bug talked about his personal views:
Circumstances require
First of all, the name of the film is IP Man, which means that the protagonist can only be IP Man, and according to the plot of the film, Barton, the villain, can only be defeated by the protagonist IP Man. Even if Wan's kung fu is much better than IP Man's, he can only be killed by the forced plot in front of the movie plot, paving the way for IP Man's appearance. If President Wan directly killed Barton's hammer, then the title of the film should be changed to Legend of Ip Man Wan or Taiji Legend, which is not in line with the plot arrangement of the film. Just like in The Avengers Unlimited War, if Thanos's opening is directly overturned by Thor Sol, then the subsequent plot will be gone, and the whole Marvel movie universe will collapse directly.
In Ip Man 4, President Wan was dissatisfied with Bruce Lee's passing on China Kung Fu to foreigners and didn't want to write a letter of recommendation to IP Man's son. After IP Man saved President Wan's daughter, President Wan mistakenly thought that IP Man wanted to ask for a letter of recommendation through his daughter's curve, so he let IP Man win over himself openly and wrote him this letter of recommendation. The two sides fought in the living room of President Wan's house. At the beginning of the battle, IP Man fell slightly in the wind because of an arm injury. After President Wan found out, he voluntarily gave up his hand (showing the host's tolerance), and the two sides fought with one hand. Ip Man and President Wan fought with one hand, but eventually they stopped fighting because of the earthquake. For most audiences, they are equal. In fact, if you look closely at the details of the fight between the two men, you can find that in the process of fighting on the table, IP Man's foot was in Wan Huichang's abdomen, and he stopped without hair. By the time I got here, Ip Man had defeated Wan Huichang by a narrow margin.
During the war, the mentality and momentum of the three men were completely different.
When playing Barton, Chairman Wan and Ip Man, even Barton's mentality and momentum were different, which had a great influence on the war situation.
Before Barton fought President Wan, his karate coach Gelian was seriously injured by Ip Man. Barton, who has always felt that karate is invincible in the world, fights Wan Huichang in a rage, that is, directly fights his opponent. The so-called high spirits, and then three exhausted. By the time Ye Wen was asked, Barton had beaten Wan Huichang, and the evil fire in his heart had dissipated a lot, so his momentum had also dropped.
For President Wan, he is the leader of Chinatown. His words and actions represent a group of Chinese behind him. What's more, on the eve of the war, he was tricked by the powerful figures of the Immigration Bureau and put in the Immigration Bureau. He is really dragged down by too many things. This also makes him always forbear first, and he can't let go of his hands and feet to fight in the war.
For IP Man, after witnessing the tragic situation of Chairman Wan and Chinatown, his heart has been aroused. From the film series Ip Man, it is very terrible to be angered by IP Man, which has been confirmed by the tragic fate of ten disabled Japanese officers, General San Pu and Tornado. In the face of IP Man's angry attack, Barton can only be doomed to failure, even if he is an officer in the Marine Corps.
Ip Man has rich practical experience.
Barton, who was born in the Marine Corps, is the ultimate BOSS in the series of films "Ip Man", and his own strength is very strong. Judging from the setting of him in the film, Barton's kung fu is mainly karate, with fierce free fighting style of boxing and military fighting. President Wan's failure may also be the reason for his lack of actual combat experience. Moreover, IP Man has fought with various masters and has rich practical experience. In "Ip Man 1", he fought against Japanese karate master General San Pu; In Ip Man 2, he fought against the British champion tornado; In ip man 3, he even had the experience of fighting Zhang Tianzhi, a boxing master from Tai Sen and a wing chun master. Ip Man's rich combat experience has brought him valuable experience in dealing with the enemy, so he can finally defeat his opponent in the face of fierce Barton.
About dirty tricks and killers
The way of fighting is nothing more than the comprehensive application of strength, speed and skill. In terms of strength alone, IP Man and Wan Hui Changdu are better than Barton, who is taller than others. The most rare thing about Barton is that he is tall, but he is not slow; In this respect, Wan Huichang's Tai Ji Chuan speed is not good at it, and Wing Chun Boxing, as a kind of close-fitting bunt, has always been the advantage of Wing Chun Boxing, and IP Man's speed of pushing is still above Barton and Wan Huichang.
In the face of the enemy's skills, Wan Huichang doesn't know whether it is because of his own mentality or other reasons. His style of play is very positive: at the beginning of the war, he tackled Barton several times with the skill of Tai Chi unloading. If he is a China person with the same physical quality, it is estimated that Wan Huichang almost lost his fighting capacity after he fell. But for Barton, who is burly and has excellent physical quality, this is just anodyne, but it has been aroused. Later, President Wan only fought with Barton behind enemy lines, which was undoubtedly a great loss. So after being injured by Barton's heavy hand several times (especially after his leg was broken), Chairman Wan has lost the chance to win.
Wan VS Barton
Ip Man flexibly avoided Barton's heavy losses in the battle, and this later counterattack retained valuable capital. Finally, IP Man came up with a cruel killer. First, anti-arthrosis interrupted Barton's arm, and the killer weapons such as provocative leg (ip man 3 vs. Tai Sen) and finger lock throat (Ip Man 1 General San Pu) that had never been issued were also displayed without scruple. After the operation, Barton had his arm broken, his crotch was seriously injured (really painful) and his throat was bruised. Finally, he was taken to the hospital on the spot.
PS: Ling Xiaochong personally thinks that IP Man has finally left his hand. Although the pointer hit Barton's throat, it certainly didn't make a real contribution. Otherwise, with IP Man's strength, if he hits the most vulnerable throat bone of the human body, it is estimated that Barton can be killed on the spot if he exerts force directly.
Ip Man can defeat Barton, and these cruel killers are undoubtedly indispensable and important means. Wan Huichang's Tai Chi should have a similar killer, but he didn't hit the point directly like IP Man. Maybe he said the same sentence to IP Man several times, "You don't live here"!
I think in fact, in the end, IP Man was very laborious when he fought in Agins, and he was almost defeated. Plus Agins is a strong warrior, laid hands on him very hard. But Wan He and Ip Man never laid hands on him, and it was very difficult to win Agins because of the physical disparity. And IP Man doesn't want to fight Wan Da, and he is not particularly serious in the tournament. In fact, Ip Man is much worse than Wan.
Wan, as the president of the Chinese General Association in Chinatown, USA, and a descendant of Tai Ji Chuan, is naturally good at kung fu. It can be seen from the match between him and IP Man that IP Man was almost tied in the case of injury, but IP Man was in the terminal stage of cancer, so their PK was not a draw, but a close call. It's still a little difficult to fight a foreigner with rich experience in kung fu fighting.
Agins, a soldier in the United States Marine Corps at that time, was young and energetic, and fought karate with high intensity for a long time. His attack power is explosive, not to mention very fleshy, which has obvious advantages compared with Wan who is old and frail. In addition, Tai Ji Chuan pays attention to combining rigidity with softness, and his defense is acceptable, but his conquest advantage is not obvious. This also caused Wan to be seriously injured in the melee between the two sides.
At that time, if IP Man was not quick and accurate in Wing Chun boxing, it would be very difficult to fight this battle.
