As a person who loves movies, I have been familiar with the name Bruce Lee for a long time, but I am ashamed that I have never been very clear about the ins and outs of this person. I always feel that a star who has been dead for 3 years may only exist in the memory of the previous generation, but in our generation, the brightness is extremely limited. I have visited some places over the years, and found that Bruce Lee's position and influence are far beyond my imagination. Almost every place where there are movies has his name, and people who know China's movies will know him. Later, I finally bought several of his masterpieces and biographies, and at first glance, I was dumbfounded. It turns out that he is not only handsome but also moves like thunder and lightning, far from being compared with many kung fu stars today. It turns out that he is not only a kung fu movie star, but also a generation of martial arts masters, who devoted his life to spreading and promoting China martial arts. It turns out that he not only can act, but also has his own profound insights and practical input into the film, and his later works can really be called "Bruce Lee's works"; It turns out that he not only knows movies and kung fu, but also knows philosophy, can write poems and is good at fine arts ...

Bruce Lee was born in Shunde, Guangdong Province, and was born in San Francisco, USA on November 27th, 194. He belongs to the dragon, and his baby name is Xifeng, and his English name is Bruce

Lee. His Chinese original name is Li Zhenfan (which is said to mean "revitalizing San Francisco"), and his family name is Yuanxin, among five brothers and sisters.

It is said that when Bruce Lee was a baby, the Hollywood film Golden Gate Girl needed a Chinese baby to appear and took it to Bruce Lee. If this is true, it should be regarded as the film superstar's debut.

His father's name is Li Haiquan. ..... You may ask: Why did Li Haiquan dress his son like this?

Because this is a classic look of Li Haiquan himself. Li Haiquan is a well-known comedian in Guangdong, one of the four famous and ugly Cantonese operas, and often takes his family to tour all over the world, which is why Bruce Lee was born in the United States.

Bruce Lee's mother, He Jintang, is half German, with a handsome face.

When Bruce Lee was three months old, her family returned to Hong Kong to live. Bruce Lee lived in Hongkong until he was eighteen. This is a family photo of Bruce Lee when he was five years old.

Young Bruce Lee is already very handsome, and his father's relationship with the entertainment industry has made him a well-known child star. His first Hong Kong film was "Floating Clouds with Wealth". At that time, he was six years old and was studying in the primary school of La Salle College.

Bruce Lee usually takes part in filming during school holidays, and sometimes he also takes part in filming after school. In order not to delay his studies, the director arranged his play at night as much as possible. Bruce Lee showed a strong professionalism in the film industry. According to family memories, if he wanted to make a film, Bruce Lee would go to bed after dinner. When it was time to go to the studio, his mother woke up as soon as she called, dressed her hands and feet neatly, and went out with her father in high spirits. She was never late for filming. However, as a student, he is a stubborn teenager. He doesn't listen to lectures in class and doesn't study after class. After dropping out of school for many times, he barely finished junior high school.

At that time, Bruce Lee always played some problem children or problem of juvenile in movies, with casual behavior and cynicism, and his expression and action had quite a unique performance style of Bruce Lee in the later period.

Before going to the United States at the age of 18, Bruce Lee appeared in 22 Cantonese movies in Hong Kong, and his stage names were Li Long and Xiao Li Hai Quan. Critics have called him an acting genius.

A Lonely Sea, one of Bruce Lee's early film masterpieces.

Bruce Lee didn't act in kung fu movies in his early days. On the contrary, he acted in many literary films. This is playing the second young master Zhou Chong in Thunderstorm.

At the age of eighteen, Bruce Lee entered Shengfangji College to attend high school.

During this period, Bruce Lee was a standard fashion youth, and his great hobby was making girlfriends.

another big hobby is motorcycles.

another hobby is dancing. Bruce Lee was the champion of Hong Kong Cha-cha Open in 1958

Of course, his greatest hobby is martial arts. Speaking of the reason why Bruce Lee practiced martial arts, it was not because he was a natural "peerless martial arts wizard", but precisely because he was weak and needed to exercise and recuperate since childhood. Therefore, Bruce Lee, who was only 1.73 meters tall, with myopia as high as 1, degrees and a difference of one inch in the length of his legs, embarked on the road of martial arts.

His first teacher is his father Li Haiquan, who is said to be a master in Tai Ji Chuan. He has been teaching Bruce Lee Tai Ji Chuan since he was seven years old.

At the age of thirteen, Bruce Lee paid homage to the first real master: Ye Wen, the master of Wing Chun. Ip Man is insightful about the connotation of Wing Chun: "Wing Chun emphasizes softness and quickness, not strength ..." Under the guidance of IP Man, Bruce Lee systematically studied Wing Chun, set up a wooden stake at home, and practiced against the wooden stake every day. In addition, he also practiced Hongquan, Baihequan, Tan Leg, Shaolin Boxing and other boxing styles, and also studied the boxing methods of western boxing. While attending western boxing training classes, he saved his pocket money to buy a documentary about the boxing match of Louis, the world champion, from which he learned the footwork, posture, boxing methods and training methods of the champion.

Shao Hansheng is another teacher of Bruce Lee. He said in an interview: "I made a deal with Bruce Lee. I taught him martial arts and he taught me dance. It takes three to four weeks for ordinary people to learn my basic footwork, and it took Bruce Lee only three nights to learn it thoroughly. But he didn't teach me to dance (laughs) later ... "

At that time, Bruce Lee had grown into a robust young man, and once won the Hong Kong Inter-school Boxing Championship. Outside the competition, he often fought with his classmates and even senior classmates. According to the memories of James J.S.Wong's old man's house, as a classmate of Bruce Lee, he was also punched by Bruce Lee. Many years later, he laughed at himself on the TV program: "Now I know that losing is inevitable. Who can beat Bruce Lee?"

"According to the test, adult Bruce Lee's boxing strength is as high as more than twice his own weight, which is unmatched by few people in the world. Even in his youth, a punch must be unstoppable.

In fact, because Bruce Lee has too many fighting records, he is facing police prosecution at any time, which is another reason why his family wants him to leave Hong Kong as soon as possible.

In May p>1959, Bruce Lee came to settle in the United States to teach people to dance to make a living.

In September, he moved to Seattle, attended Edison Technical School, attended classes during the day, and worked as a waiter in a Chinatown restaurant at night in exchange for accommodation and began his work-study career.

At this time, Bruce Lee suddenly became a diligent and enterprising student. Although he continued to practice Kung Fu after school, he stopped fighting. In 1961, Bruce Lee graduated from high school and was admitted to Washington State University with honors in May, majoring in philosophy.

Bruce Lee loves philosophy and is good at thinking. Philosophical thought permeates his career and life all his life, which is reflected in many of his speeches:

-Empty your glass before you can refill it.

-take the impossibility as the law and the infinity as the limit.

-If knowledge follows the traditional pattern, you can only live in the shadow of tradition, knowing only the old way, but you don't know yourself.

-regarding something as worthless is also a sign of courage; When something is regarded as absolute success or taken for granted, it is also a sign of courage; But if you can't do anything about something, then you are shrinking. The same is true for the enemy. As long as you inspire yourself with confidence, even if you fail, you will still win mentally.

-I was told that a genius can create his own opportunities. In fact, a person's deep expectation can not only create his own opportunities, but even create his own genius.

-it is not enough to know, but to use it; It is not enough to hope, but to do it.

-I will never say that I am the best in the world, but I will never admit that I am the second.

Bruce Lee also wrote many poems. The following song is called Who am I, and he gave it to his friend Jhoon Rhee (Korean-American martial artist, "the father of American Taekwondo"). Unfortunately, I can't find the original English text, and I can't get a glimpse of the original appearance. After all, the poems translated from foreign languages are quite awkward.
