Speaking of Jet Li, he is now a well-known martial arts star. Jet Li is a successful example from a martial arts athlete to the entertainment industry. In fact, many athletes in the same period as Jet Li, most of them have experience in the entertainment industry, but few people persist to the end.
Like Ge Chunyan, which we are going to talk about today, it is a typical example. Ge Chunyan, who learned martial arts at the age of 13 and was later selected as a Beijing martial arts athlete at the same time as Jet Li and later became the captain of the women's team, is also Jet Li's sister by age.
During his time as a martial arts athlete, Ge Chunyan has won numerous awards and won one title after another, especially proficient in boxing. Bagua Palm, Chen Style Taijiquan, and Mixed Yuan Taijiquan are all Ge Chunyan's strengths, and she is also a disciple of these two martial arts.
Ge Chunyan can be described as a well-rounded development in martial arts, under the cultivation of many martial artists, to its dross to take its essence, to become an all-round martial arts athlete, especially its martial posture is soft on the outside and strong inside, and its form is ethereal.
Around 1982 to 1985, Ge Chunyan at this time was not only the main player of the martial arts team, but also a coach who took care of the work of training athletes. In addition to achieving martial arts achievements, Ge Chunyan also began to enter the entertainment circle and start her own acting career.
She has played the female lead in several films. Of course most of them are martial arts movies. In particular, Gao Lianzhi, played by Ge Chunyan in "Wulin Zhi", presented this female martial arts athlete to the audience in another form
, and the male protagonist Dongfang Xu is also very impressed by the treasurer.
Different from the special effects production of many martial arts films now, ge Chunyan's real kung fu shown in the movie, more importantly, the equipment, freehand, swordplay, boxing and other fighting methods are turned upside down, not only to see the wonderful plot, but also to show the essence of Chinese martial arts. This is inseparable from Ge Chunyan's martial arts athlete's origin and hard work.
In particular, the unpredictable gossip moves displayed in his play have made many martial arts enthusiasts relish it, forming a wave of learning martial arts. And because of the popularity of the movie, Ge Chunyan also accompanied the film delegation to visit the Philippines, the United States, and more than 30 countries, causing quite a stir in the local area.
In addition to "Wulin Zhi", Ge Chunyan also participated in "The Great Sword King V" at the same time.
Participated in "Dongying Ranger", and starred Yu Rongguang and martial arts empress Yang Lijing that year, but the film gathered a lot of martial arts athletes,
For example, Master Yu Hai
There is also Ji Chunhua of the bad guy professional household
Ge Chunyan played Jin Demao's mother in it, remembering to take a big knife and slash at the devil's knife, and then kick the devil's watching giant relief. Later, he participated in the "Chinese Martial Arts" books and periodicals, etc.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Ge Chunyan at that time continued, he would definitely become popular.
However, Ge Chunyan did not stay in the entertainment industry to develop, perhaps Ge Chunyan's love for martial arts far exceeded his love for performance, so later Ge Chunyan gradually shifted the center of his career and work to promote Chinese martial arts culture. He has not only followed the Chinese wushu delegation to visit more than 20 countries in the United States and Australia, but also served as the coach of the Beijing Wushu team and passed on the teaching profession.
Beginning in 1995, Ge Chunyan began to shift her focus to Singapore, where she engaged in various martial arts dissemination and guidance, and founded a martial arts training center "aimed at spreading Chinese martial arts."
Later, he also made a cameo appearance in "Yangmen Female General"
Now Ge Chunyan has never stopped on the road of spreading Chinese martial arts. Perhaps many people pity that Ge Chunyan did not develop well in the entertainment industry and gave up the opportunity to become famous, but for Ge Chunyan, the most important thing in her life is martial arts, and for the development of Chinese martial arts, she has done her best to do what she should do.
