==Ip man==
These movies are about an extraordinary man. He is called Yip man or Ip man. He is the best at martial arts in Foshan, southern China, which is known for their martial arts. Even though he is known as the best he chooses to not take on students because he is against fighting. Everything he does is centered towards trying to find ways in which to solve his problems peacefully. This time period happens to be right before and during the Japanese invasion of China. The movie shows how wealthy and well off he had it and then how bad it becomes. When the Japanese take over they confiscate his house and all of his possessions. He is left to live his life with his wife and son with nothing and barely getting by. The Japanese have martial art competitions with the Chinese to make themselves better. If the Chinese beat the Japanese then they are rewarded with a bag of rice for each person they defeat. In the start when times were peaceful there were martial art schools all over and the masters of these schools would try and challenge Ip man so that they would have that much better of a reputation. One master that challenged him in the very first scenes, was murdered while doing one of the competitions. Ip man took on ten people all at once to get his revenge. This scene is a very iconic one found in so many Chinese movies all of which are done in different ways. A few examples of this are in Fist of Fury with Bruce Lee and Legend of the Fist: Return of Chen Zhen with Donnie Yen. Donnie happens to be the same actor who plays Ip man. Yip man defeats the ten while General Miura watches. He wants him to come and fight again and that he was welcome back anytime even though Ip man injured all of those ten guys. He didn’t go back instead he went to one of his friends and helped them with some of the problems that they were having at their cotton mill. Bullies kept barging in, injuring the workers, stealing the cotton and almost killing the owner of the mill who was friends with Ip man. Ip man ends up teaching all the workers how to defend themselves and helps them fight off any more attacks. This leads to General Miura finding him and making him come and fight him. If Ip man wins he is told that he will be killed. He wins anyway and he and his family are transported out to Hong Kong by his friend the owner of the mill.
