Martial arts industry background
In the context of the film, most of the masters of various schools of Chinese martial arts have gained a false reputation. In the real historical background, due to the relatively difficult living conditions of the Chinese, those who have the ability to open martial arts halls have real kung fu. In society, people are not allowed to eat casually, so it is very common to kick the restaurant and smash the field, and it is impossible to stand on without real skills. These people are not comparable to temple fair performers, nor are they comparable to today's so-called masters.
military background
The army described in the film uses martial arts as the main training subject, which is completely contrary to common sense. Even in the age of cold weapons, the army finally won through training and ultimately relying on the integration of offense and defense. It is the Liangshan hero, the Boxer Regiment, not the regular army, who overly promotes the combat capability of individual soldiers.
A story that defies logic and is secondary
Against an industry background that is completely inconsistent with reality, the film repeatedly emphasizes the strength of martial arts enthusiasts in the U.S. military. He defeated professional Chinese martial arts people again and again, and finally Ip Man narrowly defeated him. This story routine is almost the same as "Ip Man 1". The plot of the story is second to none. First, the other party's arrogance and unreasonableness are shown to incite the audience's emotions, and then a false climax is set off to create a psychological gap. Finally, the protagonist's halo reaches a climax.
