IP Man is one of the professors of martial arts in China so that he was appointed into a film that I will discuss this time. IP Man better known as Ip Man Professor is the first practitioner of Chinese martial arts to teach Wing Chun openly. He had several students who later became independent martial arts teachers including Kwok Fu, Lun Kai, Ip Chun, Ip Ching, Leung Sheung and Bruce Lee.
So what is the relationship between IP Man and Wing Chun?
Ip Man & Wing Chun.
Wing Chun is a great skill possessed by martial arts seniors, so IP Man tried to learn it when 9-year-old Ip Man started learning Wing Chun from Chan WahSun. Because of the age of his old teacher, Ip Man learned more from Ng Chungsok, the second senior in one college. After three years of Ip Man practicing Wing Chun, Chan WahSun passed away.
At the age of 15, Ip Man moved to Hong Kong with the help of his friend Leung Fut Ting. One year later, Ip continued his education at St. Stephen in Hong Kong which is a school for wealthy families and foreigners living in Hong Kong. According to his two sons, Ip Ching and Ip Chun, when at St. Stephen, Ip Man intervened after seeing foreign police beat a woman. The police officer tried to attack Ip Man who used his martial arts to overthrow the police and then ran to school with his classmates.
This is the IP Man 1 film that was launched in 2008 and directed by Wilson Yip with a script written by Edmond Wong. The film was released by aMandarin Films Distribution in Hong Kong and Cathay-Keris Films in Singapore.
