Why haven't you heard of the Jason Wu Club in China?

Jason Wu Games was established under the background of bourgeois democratic revolution. In the winter of Xuantongyuan (1909), the bourgeois democratic revolution reached its climax. Entrusted by Sun Yat-sen, a group of patriotic people of insight gathered in Shanghai to engage in the revolutionary struggle to overthrow the "Qing Dynasty". It happened that Opie Yin, a western strongman, came to Shanghai and gave a weightlifting and bodybuilding performance at Apollo Cinema, No.52 North Sichuan Road (now the sixth floor of Bank of China Building). He made wild remarks and contemptuously called China "the sick man of East Asia". The next day, Opie's words and deeds appeared in the newspapers, which aroused great indignation among Shanghai patriots.

(a) Justice for the people.

In order to prove that China people can't be bullied, the backbone of the League, such as Chen, Nong, and Li, advised Huo Yuanjia to come to Shanghai to compete in opium to stop foreigners from being arrogant.

190965438+In late February, Huo Yuanjia was invited to play in Shanghai. But because Aopin was going to other cities, he made an appointment the next spring. 19 10 At the beginning of this year, The Times published an advertisement for a contest by Bird and others: "Huo Yuanjia, the Hercules of China, is the champion of North Province. Last year, I performed in our garden for three days, all of which were well received. "

19 10 in April, Huo Yuanjia and Liu Zhensheng arrived in Shanghai for the second time and asked Chen Gongzhe to be an interpreter and visit opium. After several negotiations, a life-and-death treaty was concluded. He once again held a competition in Bird, but by that time, Opie Yin had still not appeared. Later, he learned that Ou Yin was afraid of Huo Yuanjia's martial arts and fled without fighting. From then on, Huo Yuanjia became famous in Shanghai. Later, Huo Yuanjia advertised for Lian Deng in The Times of China for three days in the name of Hercules from April 19 19 to April 2 1 Sunday, 2000. The content is: you are willing to participate in the competition, that is, take the admission ticket as a color, and the rest will go to the winner except for the owner's deduction of 20%. Wishes speak louder than fists, but you must register as soon as possible so that you can apply for land lease in China. I want to learn from you by writing again, but there are too many letters, and I am disappointed. After comparison, I plan to set up a school to punish your elegance and improve your martial spirit, which is also a pleasure. It can be seen from this advertisement that Huo Yuanjia has the intention of running a school in Shanghai.

(2) Establish Jason Wu and teach martial arts.

Inviting Huo Yuanjia to compete in Shanghai was planned by Chen when Huo Yuanjia became famous. Considering the armed uprising, the overthrow of the imperial system and the establishment of peace, Chen needs a large number of military talents, and puts forward the trend: "I hope to train tens of millions of young people with strong physique and military skills within ten years to meet the needs of large-scale revolutionary movements and military improvement." After discussion, it was decided to establish Jason Wu Gymnastics Association (predecessor of Jason Wu Sports Association), with Nong Sun Jin as the president and Huo Yuanjia as the director of Jason Wu Wushu. 19 10 In June, in the name of Huo Yuanjia, an advertisement for the establishment of this association was published in The Times. The content is as follows: The purpose is to promote the spirit of martial arts.1anyone over 2 years old and under 35 years old, with a membership fee of 2 yuan. The association is now approved by the patrol bureau to file a case. 1910 On July 7th (the first day of the sixth lunar month), China Jason Wu Gymnastics Association was formally established, and the competition venue was located in Wangjiazhai, west of Zhabei dry bridge. Huo Yuanjia personally taught boxing, and his disciple Liu Zhensheng and later Zhao, Chen and Nong often came to give guidance. The first batch of 73 students, using traditional martial arts teaching methods, taught boxing with mentoring. The first batch of students are Li Dichu, Yao Danbo, Wang and Lu Weichang. Since then, the first folk sports group in China was born.

(3) Yuanjia was hurt and Jason Wu was depressed.

Because Huo Yuanjia defeated his opponent in Bird's winning streak, he founded the Jason Wu Gymnastics Club in Wangjiazhai, and became a martial arts coach, which made him famous. At that time, the Japanese martial arts school in Sanyuanli, Shanghai (near Lu Pipeline) learned about this incident and selected more than a dozen judo masters from Japan to challenge in Shanghai. Huo Yuanjia and Liu Zhensheng were invited to the Japanese martial arts school to learn skills. At the repeated request of the Japanese side, Huo Yuanjia competed with the teachers of the Japanese Judo Association. "Japan attacked Yuanjia, Yuanjia attacked Japan ... took advantage of the situation and fell, but unfortunately his right hand was broken (fractured). Although it is unintentional, it is inevitable to be unhappy. " Since then, people have made enemies with Huo.

Huo Yuanjia was "framed" by the Japanese when he presided over the Jason Wu Gymnastics Association to carefully train the backbone to make a big impact. Hemoptysis became worse after taking the pills sold by the Japanese by mistake. He was rushed to China Red Cross Hospital on Xinzha Road for treatment and died two weeks later. According to the history of Wu Jing, "Rosty Yi died in Lux, and Japanese doctor Qiu Yi fled back to the cave. The disciples of Lux Sect became suspicious, checked the medicine that Lux took every day and handed it over to the public hospital. The hospital doctor said,' So is this medicine for chronic lung rot'. ..... "Huo Yuanjia arrived in Shanghai on invitation and was harmed by the Japanese, only half a year later. His sudden death made the Jason Wu Gymnastics Club lose its pillar and the meeting virtually stopped.

(4) Carry on the wishes and revitalize Jason Wu.

In order to inherit Huo Yuanjia's wishes, a group of elite students, such as Chen Gongzhe, Lu Weichang and Yao Chanbo, revived their plans to improve their martial arts, and unanimously said, "I am sorry that I failed to receive all kinds of stimulation and education from Mr. Huo, but I am about to follow in Mr. Huo's footsteps." On March 3rd, 19 1 1, Jason Wu Gymnastics Club moved into the former site of China Volunteer Corps, an international business group (that is, the southern end of Minde Road now crosses the railway to Zhebei Road), with two practice rooms, a library and a dormitory, and a photography studio called the Second Club.

After the completion of the second club, the number of members increased slightly, and Jason Wu's career went out of the trough. Yuan, a famous businessman, was hired as the second principal. During this period, the person in charge was far-sighted, made full ideological preparations for the formation of Jason Wu's purpose, Jason Wu's spirit and the three major educations, and made serious explorations for building a new social group in line with the trend of the times. During this period, Jason Wu's original print, Fundraising for Gymnastics School (Club) in Jason Wu, China, came out, and began to make public donations to arouse people's patriotic enthusiasm, expecting enthusiastic sponsorship to revitalize Jason Wu.

After Huo Yuanjia's death, Jason Wu Gymnastics Association experienced a period of depression, and during the second club meeting, business affairs developed to some extent. On July 4th, 2004 (19 15), the tent where Wang practiced martial arts was swept away by the typhoon, so it was impossible to practice martial arts. Therefore, three directors of Jason Wu Gymnastics Association, Chen Gongzhe, Yao Chenbo and Lu Weichang, discussed the future new address of Jason Wu, and immediately donated 73 Peikaier Road, Tilanqiao. 1965438+ moved to its new address on April 6, 2006 and changed its name to "Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association". Since then, Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association has entered a period of growth and prosperity, creating an unprecedented field.

First, establish the spirit of Jason Wu on the basis of physique, intelligence and morality.

Jason Wu Sports Association takes martial arts as the foundation, takes martial arts as the transformation, takes useful disciplines as the supplement, and arranges boxing classics in the most scientific way. It aims to carry forward the martial spirit of "patriotism, self-cultivation, family harmony and helping others", strengthen the country, the people and the body, and put forward that "my fist is not allowed to be imposed on my compatriots". The purpose of Jason Wu Sports Association is to cultivate the spiritual outlook of a generation of Wujing people, and to permeate the requirements of "three educations" into all conference activities. The leaders of Jason Wu Sports Association always emphasize the education of sports people and sports bodies. Summarize the spirit of Jason Wu as follows: only I am a member of Jason Wu, regardless of class; However, as a member of Jason Wu, I am friendly to others and take it as my duty to make myself feel better. Everyone abandons lust, despises fame and fortune, strives to practice, guard against arrogance and rashness, and creates the most perfect and powerful nation in the world.

Jason Wu Sports Association formulates a code of conduct for each member, which is called "Jason Wu style":

1, Jason Wu's figure: three religions and nine streams, gaining omnipotence;

2. Jason Wu's personality: being fair and honest, respecting others and attaching importance to oneself;

3. Jason Wu demeanor: honesty, frankness, fraternity and equality;

4. Jason Wu's words and deeds: sitting and talking to prove the facts;

5. Abide by Jason Wu: Keeping promises is more important than contracts;

6. Jason Wu's punctuality: punctuality in dating, not asking for forgiveness;

7. Justice in Jason Wu: Respect justice and don't talk about private affairs;

8. Jason Wu service: not serving people, but serving people;

9. Jason Wu's welfare: it is for people, not for others;

10, Jason Wu Friendship: Love yourself and others, treat others as brothers.

The spirit of "patriotism, self-cultivation, family harmony and helping others" is the concentrated expression of the above requirements. Because the spirit is the pillar, Jason Wu is different from ordinary martial arts schools. In the future, the national flag and national emblem represented by three stars, yellow, blue and red, all embody the three educational concepts. Every member of Jason Wu Club, from the moment he stepped into Jason Wu, has been influenced by Jason Wu's spirit, imperceptibly cultivating the spiritual outlook of Wujing people. At the same time, Jason Wu Club has a strict management system. According to the records of Jason Wu Club, "the club has the strictest restrictions on the performance of its members. Anyone who joins the club must be introduced. The introducer is responsible, and both workers and peasants can join the club. No class, no wealth, but you must review before joining the club. After joining the club, there must be more pickets. Those who have irregular behaviors will be removed immediately. " "So, in the beginning, members are conscientious and self-disciplined, for fear of violating the sacred constraints. Over time, they practice, and they will adapt to the times and do nothing. "

Second, abandon the portal view and carry forward the new martial arts style.

In order to promote China Wushu, Jason Wu Sports Association first made changes and broke the bad habit of "following the patriarchal clan system and sharing secrets between master and apprentice". Put forward: the views of the same origin of all factions do not dispute the shortcomings of the portal and integrate the martial arts of all factions in one furnace. Huo Dongge, Chen Zizheng, Wu, Zhao Lianhe, Huo, Chen Weixian, Sun, Sun Yufeng, Luo Guangyu and so on. He was employed to teach martial arts openly in Jason Wu, and the whole country got together to observe and hone each other, so that the superior was encouraged and the inferior was encouraged. Ten Basic Sets of Jason Wu were compiled, which became the basic teaching materials of Jason Wu Wushu, namely, Tan Leg, Kung Fu Boxing, Bound Boxing, Boxing, Tan Leg Joint, Single Knife String Gun, Sheep Head Stick, Bagua Knife and Five Tiger Gun. Jason Wu members who study martial arts "must be familiar with these ten methods and other skills" and it is stipulated that a sports meeting will be held once every year or two, and a collective performance of "Ten Sets of Basic Martial Arts" will be performed at each sports meeting. In martial arts training, establish new teaching methods, hold three-level training courses for two years, and issue graduation certificates to those who pass the examination; At the same time, the military implementation law of offensive and defensive warfare was created to train military talents. In order to popularize Jason Wu Wushu, sending boxers out of the gate of Jason Wu to teach Wushu in universities, middle schools, primary schools, girls' schools, factories, troops and groups coincides with today's national fitness activities.

Third, carry forward Chinese Wushu and advocate modern sports.

Jason Wu Gymnastics Club was a pure martial arts group in its early days. With the establishment of Shanghai Concession, the invasion of western economy and the infiltration of culture, modern sports began to spread in Shanghai. Jason Wu Sports Association has carried out various modern sports in the spirit of "putting sports first, focusing on martial arts and participating in sports of various times". The sports at that time included: football, basketball, billiards, pompon, table tennis, one shoulder, wooden horse, darts, high jump, long jump, dumbbell, platform, swing, weightlifting, bow drawing, archery, sleeve darts, flying hammer, stone rubbing, horseback riding, skating, hunting, track and field, etc. At that time, Jason Wu Club was not only talented and brilliant, but also made great achievements in other sports. A considerable number of projects are among the best in the city's competitions, and some projects are among the best in the country.

Fourthly, develop China culture through the combination of martial arts and writing.

Jason Wu Sports Association is not only a social organization, but also a public school. Advocating Wu Naiwen, developing China culture, its connotation goes far beyond a sports group. Jason Wu culture not only inherits the historical tradition, but also combines the characteristics of the times. It is very rich in content, including Linchi (calligraphy), pictures, Putonghua, photography, Cantonese opera, brass music, strings, Beijing opera, movies, dances, medicine, tourism, eloquence and so on. At that time, members who studied martial arts had to have good calligraphy. 19 18, Jason Wu Cantonese Band was founded, with nearly 100 Cantonese songs, some of which have been handed down to this day. Jason Wu is the first photography group in Shanghai; Offering Jason Wu medical lectures combining Chinese and Western medicine; Jason Wu tour group started at 1922, and more than 20 groups and more than 2,000 people take part in the tour every year. Jason Wu's dance skills include: funny dance, martial arts dance, * * harmony dance, Samsung dance, phoenix dance, duet and so on. Each dance is accompanied by a famous Cantonese song, which is very popular. Jason Wu has also set up an eloquence group to study Mandarin, which fully reflects Jason Wu's role in developing China culture.

Fifth, attach importance to women's sports and establish women's clubs.

Since Jason Wu Sports Association moved to Xinhui, it has put forward clear requirements and measures for developing women's sports. When boxers from all walks of life go out to teach martial arts in the society, they all list girls' schools as counseling objects, such as Lu Weichang, martial arts coach of patriotic girls' schools, and Chen, martial arts coach of Chongde girls' schools. 1965438+In June 2008, Chen initiated the establishment of a women's model group to advocate the women's movement and make it develop continuously. On May 1920, the Women's Sports Association was established, with Chen Ren as its president. The Jason Wu Women's Sports Association is a sports organization composed entirely of women. It not only enables a group of women to show their talents in the conference activities, but also unites a large number of women around them, and emerges Wu Jing heroines represented by Chen, Li Chi Ngai, Feng Yushan and Wu. Shanghai Jason Wu Women's Sports Association is an important part of Jason Wu.

Sixth, attach importance to the publication of books and periodicals, and you can't go far without words.

"If you don't write, you can't go far." The director of Jason Wu Sports Association knows this truth well, so he attaches great importance to the publication of books and periodicals. The books published in Jason Wu have obvious characteristics, involving martial arts, culture, medicine, art and other fields. According to the data, there are 44 kinds of bibliographies published in Jason Wu, including 3 kinds of books, 7 kinds of books and periodicals and 6 kinds of special issues. The main books are published by the Commercial Press and Zhonghua Book Company. Most of the authors of Jason Wu's books and periodicals are main directors and famous martial arts teachers. He is the author of Grand View of Martial Arts, Ao wrote Biography of Jason Wu and Biography of Jason Wu, and Shortcut of Photometry; Zhao Lianhe, the head martial arts coach, wrote books such as Kung Fu Boxing, Tan Leg, Dharma Sword, and Xue wrote Attack Rules. At that time, there were as many as 14 kinds of martial arts books published in Jason Wu, which played an important role in the popularization of martial arts in Jason Wu. Jason Wu's books and periodicals have great influence in the society, which has attracted the attention and attention of the upper class. Many books have inscriptions and prefaces written by party and government leaders at that time.

Seven, shoot Jason Wu, spread the history of Jason Wu.

In order to spread the cause of Jason Wu, 1920 Jason Wu Sports Association produced five volumes of Jason Wu movies by electronic means, which truly recorded the development of Jason Wu's cause at that time, so that the audience could know Jason Wu, know Jason Wu and support Jason Wu. These films not only went to Nanyang with the Five Ambassadors, but also became vivid materials to introduce Jason Wu. They are also used to entertain consuls living in Shanghai and are very popular. According to the History of Wu Jing, there are five volumes and sixty-five items in the film catalogue. Unfortunately, these precious historical materials were destroyed in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.

Eight, the construction of Jason Wu Park is a great ambition of China people.

19 17, an enthusiastic public welfare person organized an "anonymous family" and generously donated 30,000 gold to support the expansion of the Jason Wu Sports Association. Upon the decision of the joint meeting of directors and staff, we purchased more than 10 mu of land on the right side of Jason Wu Club, established a public park called Jason Wu Park, and adopted cosmopolitanism, proposing that "anyone who can abide by the general principles of civilization can visit the park". 1920 Early spring, Jason Wu Park was completed. 1920 1 1.7 The 10th anniversary celebration was held in Jason Wu Park. For the first time, social groups built their own parks, which not only expressed the wish of "nobody" to benefit the society, but also strongly countered the imperialist act of "China people and dogs are not allowed in concession parks". Its practical significance goes far beyond itself. It reflects the prosperity of Jason Wu at that time and left an unforgettable page in the history of Jason Wu. Jason Wu Park was sold in June due to debt problems 1926 1 1.

9. Co-organize domestic friendship associations to explore the cause of Jason Wu.

Since the Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association moved into the new club located in Peikaier Road, the conference affairs have flourished, the membership has been increasing, and the activities have been colorful. Public opinion propaganda is quite frequent, its influence radiates everywhere, its status is obviously improved, and its cohesion is constantly enhanced. 1920, Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Federation was renamed Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Federation, leading three branches in Shanghai. Shaoxing and Nanxun, which are adjacent to Shanghai, took the lead in putting up the brand of Jason Wu Sports Branch, and Wushu activities were also carried out. At this time, the Jason Wu Association sent personnel to publicize widely and actively co-organize the Association. For example, the establishment of Hankou Jason Wu was established under the propaganda and guidance of Chen Gongzhe and Lu Weichang. At the inaugural meeting of Hankou Jason Wu Club, Chen Gongzhe went to congratulate him and made a report on the relationship between sports and Chinese people to talk about boxing. Six people, including Lu Weichang, Yao Danbo, Shen Jixiu and Huang, were sent to Guangdong to help organize and hold a farewell ceremony. Vice President Nie Yuntai delivered a farewell speech, and then Lu Weichang and Chen Gongzhe replied, saying, "It is obligatory to go to Guangdong this time, so that martial arts beneficial to the body and mind can spread throughout Guangdong. Under the propaganda of Guangdong Jason Wu, 1920 established Shantou branch, and 192 1 established Foshan and Hongkong Jason Wu branch. Later, more than 30 women's Jason Wu clubs such as Xiangshan, Zhaoqing, Xinhui, Xiamen, Nanning, Wuzhou, Guiping, Macau, Kowloon and Guangzhou were established one after another, and the cause of Jason Wu in the south was booming.

Ten, Jason Wu went abroad, martial arts to the world.

Since the establishment of Jason Wu Association in Guangdong Province, Jason Wu Wushu has spread in Guangdong. Guangzhou is the gateway to Southeast Asia, and Jason Wu's influence has spread overseas. "Nanyang overseas Chinese businessmen have written to the Guangdong Association to inquire about the content, which is very impressive." At this time, Huang Qiangya, a member of Shanghai Jason Wu Club, returned to Guangdong due to the death of his mother, and worked in Kuala Lumpur. During this period, he constantly publicized the situation of Shanghai Jason Wu Club, which left a deep impression on the local overseas Chinese business community. Ao of Shanghai Association went to Malaysia to rebuild Guangzhou Girls' School, and then returned to Shanghai. He talked about "if you want to set up Jason Wu in Nanyang ports as soon as possible, you must come to Malaysia to enjoy overseas Chinese in person". So,, ao, Chen,, Ye, and Li Huisheng, five people, collectively called "five ambassadors", visited Nanyang on August 1920. Before the trip, a farewell party was held for the Jason Wu Games, and high hopes were placed on the visit of the "Five Special Envoys". The "five envoys" made a 73-day trip in Nanyang, went to 9 regions, made 30 speeches and showed martial arts films, went deep into 10 schools to teach martial arts, trained 224 students, visited schools and factories 29 times, met 400 people, and sold two paintings for disaster relief, earning 50,000 yuan. Since then, Jason Wu Sports Association has been established in Malaysia and Singapore. 1922, Jason Wu Club was also established in Saigon, Vietnam, Java, Surabaya and Jakarta.

Eleven, the establishment of the Central Wushu Association, strengthen the guidance of the Friendship Association.

With the direct promotion and full support of Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association, by 1920, more than 30 Jason Wu sports associations have been established at home and abroad. Since the directors of national sports and martial arts coaches of all clubs were originally sent by Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association, Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association has an inseparable relationship with local friendship associations. In order to promote development and embody the spirit of "one family in Jason Wu", the Central Committee was formally established on 192 1, with Yao Danbo,, and Zheng as the director and deputy director. Chen Gongzhe donated the private property located at No.75 Pekel Road to Jason Wu Club as the central office of Jason Wu. According to Jason Wu Monthly, No.52 1926, on August 5th, "Jason Wu is the general organ of Jason Wu at home and abroad, and Jason Wu's directors and teachers are all appointed by the central government. All correspondence between Jason Wu is expected to be collected by the central government ... Shanghai Jason Wu is only a branch of a province ...". According to records, martial arts directors or teachers sent to various places include: Shen Jixiu from Guangdong, Li Peixian from Hong Kong, Foshan, Hu from Jiangxi, Lin Junxuan from Wuzhou, Lu from Macau and Xiamen, Pang Yizhi from Hankou, Lu Weichang from Shanghai, Luo Keji from Nanyang Government, Huo Dongge from Zhahua Island, Wu from Sin Chew, Feng Yushan from Kuala Lumpur and Pi Neng.

Twelve, the establishment of normal schools, training talents in Jason Wu.

With the vigorous development of Jason Wu, the demand for talents in Jason Wu is increasingly urgent. At the beginning of 1923, Jason Wu Sports Association established Jason Wu Sports Normal School, with Lu Weichang as the principal and two years' schooling. The enrollment targets are people who are physically fit, well-behaved, both male and female students are above 18, under 25 years old, have graduated from technical secondary school or have equivalent education, and have passed the school examination. Later, due to Jason Wu's debt problem, the school closed.

13. Build the Central Great Hall of the People and set up a new symbol of Jason Wu.

According to "Fifty Years of Jason Wu", the organization in Jason Wu is getting bigger and bigger. In Shanghai, there is a general meeting and three branches, with many members and ordinary activities. Every meeting must be held on a rented stage. 1922, Chen Gongzhe found an open space in Faudri of Hengbang Bridge in the north of Shanghai and built the Jason Wu Central Hall. Paper drawing, Chen Gongzhe, raising funds from members, started on 1922, and was completed on 1923 in July. 1924, Peck Road General Association was cancelled and moved to the central hall.

The size of the central hall: The central hall can be used as a sports ground. Behind the hall is the stage, which is two meters wide. The backstage is the makeup and actor lounge, and behind the hall seats is the balcony. The whole hall can accommodate 800 seats. There are eight semicircular pillars on both sides of the hall, all purple, with shield-shaped reflective lights hanging on the wall, and the layout is palace-style. There is a big corridor and office in front of the hall, and a library in the building. The establishment of the Central Hall is a symbol of the progress of Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association, which provides a broad indoor sports and conference exchange venue for Shanghai Jason Wu Sports Association and Jason Wu stadiums at home and abroad.
