Chapter seven hundred and sixty third origin and reason
Taekwondo originated in the Korean Peninsula. It evolved from Taekwondo and Hwarangdo in the early Three Kingdoms period of Korea. It is a popular martial art in South Korea.
Before the last century, there was no word Taekwondo in Korea. Korean martial arts were mainly karate, Tang Shou and a few folk Taekwondo. During the Japanese occupation, a large number of young Korean students went to Japan to study and received systematic training in Japan.
Shotokan karate training, after returning to China they began to establish a dojo to teach students.
After Japan's defeat, South Korea gained national independence, and a large number of karate and tang hand-do gyms emerged. The early disseminators of karate in Korea combined the national traditional martial arts taekwondo with karate, called tang hand-do, and the earliest batch of Korean tao appeared.
Pavilion, which later became the Jiudao Pavilion.
The name Taekwondo was created in 1955 by General Choi Hong-hee of South Korea. This figure who studied in Japan and practiced karate played a vital role in the creation, inheritance and development of Taekwondo.
Li Zhecheng is one of Cui Hongxi's most proud disciples.
Li Zhecheng started learning Taekwondo when he was 5 years old. He won the national championship at the age of 17. At the age of 21, he participated in the Olympics and won the gold medal in the under-68kg category. He successfully defended his title four years later.
His contribution to Taekwondo is not just the two Olympic gold medals, but he created a new school in addition to the Jiudao Gym. The Wucheng Gym he established single-handedly is not inferior to the Taekwondo in terms of strength, scale and influence.
Jiudaoguan is even more famous among young people in Korea.
Li Zhecheng not only inherited Taekwondo, but also made his own unique innovations. The school he founded absorbed the essence of skills such as free fighting, grappling, and Sanda, and was more focused on actual combat.
One day five years ago, when Li Zhecheng came out of the gym, he happened to encounter three gangsters robbing passers-by with knives. He rushed up with his bare hands and knocked down all the tall gangsters in just ten seconds.
The scene at that time was captured by a camera in a nearby store, and then uploaded to the Internet, causing a great sensation. Later, the President of South Korea met with Li Zhecheng and awarded him a medal. For this reason, Li Zhecheng was regarded as a hero by many Koreans.
"I was the one who caused trouble for Mr. Lu..."
In the business suite of the Shilla Hotel, Ryu Seung-hyun said apologetically to Lu Chen: "I'm so sorry."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "How can I blame you? It's not a big deal..."
Last night Li Zhecheng issued a letter of challenge on floo, and this morning Liu Chengxian brought Song Jiazhen to the hotel to apologize in person. Without his insistent invitation, Lu Chen would not have faced this trouble.
It was indeed very troublesome. Although Li Zhecheng's letter of challenge on floo was worded carefully, it could not hide its aggressive tone. Coupled with his special status, it could be said that Lu Chen was forced into a blind corner to a large extent.
This is not the first time Lu Chen has been challenged.
After the flight UD725 incident and the exposure of the video of Lu Chen demonstrating the motion capture system at Blue Sky Studio, China's Kongfu became famous all over the world. Jack Ross, who had won the AFS middleweight gold belt three times in a row, challenged him.
It's just that Jack Ross wasn't very serious at the time, and Lu Chen directly expressed that he was not interested, so except for a few media outlets who were making noises, the so-called challenge went nowhere.
In addition to Jack Ross, there are also many "masters" in free fighting and Sanda in China who have said they want to compete with Lu Chen. Some of them are just hype, so Lu Chen doesn't bother to respond at all.
Now Li Zhecheng's challenge is extraordinary. First of all, as a challenger, he has a very special status. He is a representative figure of Korean Taekwondo. His words carry a lot of weight and are not just a joke.
In this challenge, Li Zhecheng proposed that Lu Chen could decide the time and place for the duel between the two sides, whether in South Korea or China. He wanted to use this duel to prove that the new Taekwondo he created was superior to that of china.
superior!
Now that the news has spread, it has caused a sensation on the Internet in South Korea. There will definitely be more media attention, and I believe it will spread back to China soon.
Under such circumstances, if Lu Chen rejected Li Zhecheng's challenge, the consequences can be imagined.
If nothing else, there will definitely be many fans who will be disappointed, and there will definitely be people who will jump out to ridicule and say weird things, and some media will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble.
Lu Chen is really popular right now, and I don't know how many people are jealous. Now that he is in South Korea, Li Zhecheng can be said to have chosen an excellent time.
Ryu Seung-hun just knows some inside information: "Actually, things are not that simple..."
Li Zhecheng's purpose of challenging Lu Chen was not simple. After he founded Wuchengkan, he tried his best to promote the Wuchengkan school with the intention of establishing a new Taekwondo Alliance, and even challenged the itf created by his mentor, which is the International Taekwondo Federation.
.
However, the influence of the International Taekwondo Federation is too great, with more than 120 national and regional associations around the world, and it cannot be easily shaken by Li Zhecheng.
So his purpose of challenging Lu Chen is obvious!
"So that's it..."
Lu Chen nodded, thought for a while and said, "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for letting me know. I will handle this matter."
Liu Chengxian smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, I know Mr. Li Zhecheng and I admire him as a person. If possible, I hope that Mr. Lu Chen and Mr. Li Zhecheng can become friends instead of rivals."
Lu Chen smiled faintly and said no more.
After sending Liu Chengxian and Song Jiazhen away, Filia Chen asked worriedly: "What are you going to do?"
She also realized the trouble this unexpected incident had brought to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen smiled and said: "Don't worry about it for now, let's finish our own things."
Today he and Filia Chen also have to meet with the executives of kgs TV station and syg. That is an arranged task.
Filia Chen asked again: "Then shall we return to the capital tomorrow?"
The return flight was booked for tomorrow afternoon. Lu Chen thought for a moment: "Let's talk about it in the evening..."
Regardless of the disturbances outside, he will not lose his composure and will continue to do what he needs to do.
On the 30th, Lu Chen and Filia Chen followed their planned itinerary and visited the headquarters of kgs TV station and syg. They met and negotiated with senior officials of the two companies respectively, mainly related to Chenfei Media's future business expansion in South Korea.
Due to the very good cooperation between the two parties, kgs TV station and syg received the two people with great enthusiasm and the standard of reception was the highest. They even had a banquet together at the Shilla Hotel in the evening.
At the same time, the incident of Li Zhecheng challenging Lu Chen further developed, causing huge repercussions on the domestic Internet. It can be said that one stone stirred up a thousand waves! ——
