Synopsis
Huo, a skilled martial arts fighter, has not forgiven himself since causing his mother and daughter to be killed by his enemies. He flees his home and goes to a village where he meets two individuals who help him to forget his past and his pain - an elderly woman and her blind granddaughter.
When Huo saves a little boy in the village from a powerful Thai boxer, his love for the martial arts is revived. Not only that, Huo has also discovered a lighter, less aggressive style, which will later become the legendary Missing Fist.
Returning home with his new martial arts knowledge, Huo uses the Missing Fist to defeat a powerful opponent. Huo’s victory is immediately seen as a threat to the members of the Foreign Chambers of Commerce, who worry that Huo’s victory will fan the flames of anti-Western sentiment in the Chinese people.
Facts
Huo Yuanjia (1868-1909), born in Tianjin, Huo became one of the most famous martial art heroes in modern Chinese History. Due to the oppressive state of China during the turn of the century, by foreign occupation and the failing Ching Dynasty, Huo, like many patriots was motivated to keep the honor of his people alive. His father was a bodyguard for caravans traveling to the northeast, Huo trained diligently on his family martial art skills. In 1901, one of his students showed him a leaflet. It carried an advertisement about a Russian boxer, who proclaimed himself as ?Unmatched in China?, and again in Shanghai with a British boxer, both proclaiming their greatness, but when Huo met their challenge neither bothered to show. This enraged Huo, who erected his own platform in a Shanghai park, open to anyone who thought the Chinese were weaklings. This set the stage for a string of contestants, who were easily beaten. On one occasion a team of Japanese took on the famous teacher, after losing to both his student and the master, the Japanese delegation gave a party in honor of the teacher. However, this was just a ploy in which to seek revenge. It was reported that in the medicine he took for a fever, there was actually poison. Huo died several days after on Sept. 14, 1909.
During his life, Huo established the famous Ching Mo School in Shanghai. Inspired by the conviction of their late teacher, many of his students opened branches all over China.
