The Great Wall never falls, and the Yellow River flows for thousands of miles. ...

A song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" sounded, and for a time, it would immediately create an "empty street" scene. In order to catch up with this TV series, every night, men, women and children will arrive as scheduled, sit in front of black and white TV sets and watch every shot in the TV series with relish, and their emotions will fluctuate with the ups and downs of the plot.

As the theme song of the TV series Huo Yuanjia 1983, "The Great Wall Never Falls" is sonorous, sonorous, solemn and stirring, and the audience can easily remember a person's name, that is, Mr. Huo Yuanjia, a patriotic martial artist in the late Qing Dynasty (1868- 19 10).

On the other hand, Huo Yuanjia is widely known and has a lot to do with this TV series. He was the first hero of the Republic of China to win popularity by black and white TV.

So, what is the real Huo Yuanjia in history? What's the difference between it and TV?

Huo Yuanjia, born in Cangzhou, Hebei Province,1was born in Jinghai County, Tianjin in June, 868. Cangzhou has been a famous "hometown of martial arts" since ancient times. Huo Yuanjia's granddaddy once created his own "Huojia Boxing", which was further developed by Huo Yuanjia, creating a "secret boxing", which immediately became a stunt in Wulin actual combat and was highly valued by his peers.

The Huo family have been bodyguards for generations. Huo Yuanjia's grandfather and father are both famous darters on the Kanto Road, especially his father, Huo Dian, who is superb in martial arts and has played "Huo Jia Boxing" to perfection, and has hardly missed darts for decades.

Huo Yuanjia later learned martial arts and created his own secret zongquan, and became a generation of martial arts masters. He was also called "Top Ten Masters of the Late Qing Dynasty" with Dong Haichuan, Wu Wang, Sun Lutang, Wang Ziping, Du,,, and Guo, all because of the inheritance of family studies.

Huo Yuanjia in the TV series is more faithful to the prototype of the characters, which is not much different from the real Huo Yuanjia in history, and basically restores Huo Yuanjia's vigorous life.

However, there are still two storylines in the TV series that are somewhat different from the real Huo Yuanjia in history.

First, Huo Yuanjia was not ill since he was a child. On the contrary, he is a rare martial arts genius.

The Huo family is a big family in Jinghai County, Tianjin. Huo Dean has three sons, namely, the eldest son Huo Yuanying, the second son Huo Yuanjia and the third son Huo Yuandong.

According to TV, Huo Yuanjia was born sickly. Compared with his brother and younger brother, his physical condition was the worst. His father Huo saw that he was weak, his hands were tied, and he was forbidden to practice martial arts. He was worried that if he did nothing after practicing martial arts, his family would lose face.

So Huo Yuanjia was forced to study literature by his father, but Huo Yuanjia was not satisfied. When his father taught martial arts to disciples such as Huo Yuanying and Huo Yuandong, Huo Yuanjia hid in the distance and secretly watched.

Unexpectedly, just by stealing, Huo Yuanjia learned a good martial arts skill because of his high talent, which was even worse than his brothers.

This kind of performance on TV is just to play up Huo Yuanjia's extraordinary performance.

In fact, real history is not like this. According to historical records, Huo Yuanjia grew up healthy and not ill. Because of medium height, solid foundation, excellent physical quality and strong explosive force, it is a good material for practicing martial arts. His father discovered his advantages and talents in this field very early and taught him martial arts very early.

By the age of 22, Huo Yuanjia had become a minor celebrity in the martial arts field near Tianjin.

Huo Yuanjia's eldest daughter, Huo Dongru, later wrote in her memoirs: A farmer built a house, spread mud on the roof, passed it on by others, or picked it with a fork. Huo Yuanjia moved a big ladder and put it away. Then he filled two big barrels with mud, one in each hand, stepped on the ladder and walked to the house. After pouring out the mud, he walked down the ladder with an empty bucket and reloaded it. Two barrels of mud weigh 1450 Jin, and Huo Yuanjia flies up and down.

On another occasion, before the three rooms were capped,12m long ridge purlin had just been laid, and everyone asked Huo Yuanjia to raise his hand. Huo Yuanjia stood on it and played whirlwind leg, from east to west, from west to east, back and forth, as light as a swallow.

History also records that before the age of 29, Huo Yuanjia was only a "yogi" in ten miles and eight townships, although he was skilled in martial arts, and he was still unknown in China. At the age of 30, Huo Yuanjia came to work in Huaiqing Pharmacy outside Tianjin North Gate. During his work, he can easily stir up hundreds of pounds of medicinal materials on his shoulders, and it is effortless to push them up, which makes everyone next to him dumbfounded. Therefore, people nicknamed him "Hercules Huo".

It was also in Huaiqing Pharmacy that Huo Yuanjia met the second person who had a far-reaching influence on him (the first one was broadsword Wang Wu), the famous revolutionary Mr. Nong Sun Jin (1862- 1953), and under his influence, he had a strong ambition to serve the country.

Judging from these descriptions, Huo Yuanjia was indeed a martial arts wizard when he was a child and young, and with the growth of age and the influence of friends, his martial arts attainments and ideological realm are rising.

Second, Huo Yuanjia has never been in the ring, nor has he fought with the Western Hercules.

Whether it's the 1983 version or other versions of Huo Yuanjia film and television dramas, there is a plot: Huo Yuanjia, who is fed up with his opponent's repeated provocations, finally agrees to compete with his opponent. After an arduous battle, Huo Yuanjia finally put his opponent in the ring and became the final winner, which made his people proud.

After all, TV plays are art, so it is entirely out of artistic needs to arrange Huo Yuanjia to play in the ring in order to eliminate the arrogance of western strongmen and design the plot wonderfully. Because at the end of the Qing Dynasty, we were bullied by western powers everywhere, and we needed heroes like Huo Yuanjia to shoulder the feelings of founding the country and carry forward Chinese martial arts and national spirit by ourselves, so as to boost morale and enhance cohesion.

In real history, Huo Yuanjia did not personally enter the ring to accept the challenge of his opponent. The only two times he was beaten were because his opponent chickened out and won without fighting. It's really a pity for a martial arts expert like Huo Yuanjia not to go on stage to fight.

190 1 In the spring of, a Russian strongman named Shifanlov was actually a Jianghu artist who made a living by performing juggling in the streets of Tianjin. He came to the Tianjin War Zone and shouted: I defeated China invincible, and I want to let the "sick man of East Asia" open his eyes.

Passers-by saw that Shifanlov was tall and powerful, and they dared to be angry and dare not speak.

Huo Yuanjia was furious when he learned this. He immediately asked Nong Sun Jin to help him as an interpreter and told Shivalov: I, Huo Yuanjia, would like to go on stage with you, and I must sign a "certificate of life and death" before going on stage.

Frightened by Huo Yuanjia's appearance, the Russian Hercules quickly inquired privately about the origin and strength of Huo Yuanjia, knowing that he was no match. On the day of the beating, because of fear, Sifanlov begged Huo Yuanjia for mercy on the spot: I just came to Tianjin to perform and make a living by performing. Please let me go. Don't take what I said seriously.

Water under the bridge. Huo Yuanjia can only forgive this charlatan.

/kloc-in the summer of 0/909, a British strongman named Opilai was actually an acrobat. With his strong physique, he launched a challenge in Bird, and called China "the sick man of East Asia". Although the Shanghai Wulin people are angry, no one dares to accept the challenge.

Chen sent a telegram to Huo Yuanjia in Tianjin, and Huo Yuanjia immediately left for Shanghai.

Unexpectedly, Opire is a real parallel importer. Huo Yuanjia made his debut in Shanghai and fled the beach overnight before the game, which once again made many jokes for people.

This incident made Huo Yuanjia famous in Shanghai. Immediately, Huo Yuanjia came to Shanghai from Tianjin to develop. With the support of a group of friends, he founded the Jason Wu Gymnastics Club in Zhabei.

A year later, a dozen martial arts experts from the Japanese Judo Club refused to accept Huo Yuanjia and went to the Jason Wu Gymnastics Club to challenge them. Just when Huo Yuanjia wanted to teach these fanatics a lesson himself, Liu Zhensheng, the great disciple, took the lead and taught these fanatics a lesson for the master.

Liu Zhensheng, with extraordinary skill, defeated five Japanese masters in one breath. The Japanese team leader became angry from embarrassment and attacked Huo Yuanjia. After Huo Yuanjia escaped, he elbowed the Japanese team leader on the arm. The Japanese team leader's arm was immediately interrupted and he had to give up and leave.

"Jason Wu Gymnastics Club" advocates the aim of "patriotism, self-cultivation, family harmony, helping others, strengthening the country, strengthening the people and strengthening the body". By the 1920s, its members had grown to more than 400,000, making it the most influential folk sports group in modern China.

In addition to the above two issues, Huo Yuanjia's death is also one of the topics that people are very concerned about.

In fact, Huo Yuanjia's death was indeed committed by the Japanese. It was a Japanese doctor named Akino who gave Huo Yuanjia a chronic poison, which led to Huo Yuanjia's chronic poisoning and eventually died.

After a dozen Japanese martial arts experts challenged Huo Yuanjia bring disgrace to oneself, they held a banquet in the name of discussing martial arts. During the dinner, the Japanese learned that Huo Yuanjia had a "choking cough" and took the initiative to introduce a Japanese doctor named Akino to treat him.

Akino mixed drugs with chronic poisons that corrode the lungs, and unwitting Huo Yuanjia took these drugs every day. After taking the medicine, the condition not only did not improve, but gradually deteriorated. About a month later, Huo Yuanjia passed away with painstaking efforts, and fixed his life length at 42 years old.

Until 1989, in order to commemorate Huo Yuanjia, Xiqing District of Tianjin began to build Huo Yuanjia Cemetery. When people carried and buried Huo Yuanjia's body, it was found that his body showed an unreasonable black color. After forensic identification, the result was poisoning, which confirmed that Huo Yuanjia's death was indeed committed by the Japanese. At this point, the mystery of the death of Huo Yuanjia, a hero who has puzzled people for decades, has finally been uncovered.
