Ye Wen
Ye Wen is a famous martial artist in Foshan, Guangdong. He plays Wing Chun, and his famous disciple is Bruce Lee. More information about Ip Man can be found on Wikipedia. [Ip Man] Mainly tells the story of Ip Man before and when Japan invaded China. I was taken aback when I saw Ren Dahua's appearance. Ren Dahua's last film [Wenque] in his collaboration with Lin Jiadong, who also starred in this film, was the boss of Wenque, very strong; in [Ip Man], he played a An honest and vulnerable businessman, and also a friend of Ye Wen. He played Qingquan in the film, and there is indeed a person in history. Wikipedia describes it as follows (via):
In 1938, the Japanese army occupied Foshan, and life was very difficult. Ye borrowed from Zhou Yugeng, a wealthy businessman in Foshan in the evening from 1941 to 1943, and Tong Qingquan and his son taught Wing Chun to their friends and their subordinates at the "Joint Advocate" Huasha Shop on Yongan Road.
The Kung Fu starring Donnie Yen is well known to everyone. In recent years, the better movies he has played are [Dragon Tiger Gate] and [Fuse]. I've seen both movies and the fight part more than once. [Dragon Tiger Gate] and [Fuse] are criticized for being too mentally retarded, although the fighting is first-class. I totally agree with both. So this time Weixin Ye found Donnie Yen again to cooperate, intending to make a movie that values the plot.
I think at this point they totally did it. It's a pity that in my opinion, martial arts have dropped more than one level. Although there are many martial arts, they are not good enough, so the audience is not happy enough to watch them. [Ip Man] The situation is roughly like this. Friends who want to see Donnie Yen's great power can consider whether to go to the cinema, and patriots who want to watch the plot need not hesitate. =)
Finally, a little gossip: I think Lin Jiadong is still suitable for films like [Detective] [Wenque].
