China has a history of thousands of years, and its long-standing culture has left many legends and stories for modern people. In these stories, their deeds are either praiseworthy or reprehensible. But there are also many historical deeds and celebrities that are actually untrue, just like Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang, who have been misunderstood, in fact, these two people are very affectionate in history, and what is circulating is their ugly image. There are also these three celebrities in history, they are not the same as Wu Pan, they may not exist at all.
First of all, the first person is Mulan, chirping and chirping, Mulan is the household weaver. The story of Hua Mulan has been passed down to this day, she is one of the four heroes of ancient Chinese legends, and she is also a character with extremely strong legends during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. The deeds of Mulan's women dressing as men to serve in the army for their father have made many people respected, but in the main history, there is no record of Hua Mulan as a person. Not only the name, but also the place of origin, she has a lot of controversy in history, and she really does not appear in the history books.
The second is Chen Shimei, who did exist in history and was also a good official who asked for orders in his name. He was born in 999 and was summoned to the throne of Kaifeng Province in the first year of Jiayou (1056), and most of his deeds were passed down in this official position. Among them, Chen Shimei's case probably also occurred during this time, and in people's impressions, Chen Shimei is synonymous with negative people.
In the "Case of Chen Mei" and other records, Chen Shimei was initially poor and fell in love with his wife Qin Xianglian, but later abandoned the original match after being recruited as a donkey. In the end, it was Bao Zheng's subordinate Zhan Zhao who saved Qin Xianglian, and Chen Shimei became the representative of the negative person. But this man does not exist in history, and is made up by the author of the novel. The exhibition in it is also not recorded in history, probably because later generations wanted to borrow the hero's name, and his name was passed down by the martial arts community in later generations.
The last one is Chen Zhen, who was once an idol worshipped by everyone when Jingwumen was popular a long time ago. Inside the Jingwu Gate, Chen Zhen was the sole of the martial artist Huo Yuanjia at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and legend has it that he was taken in by Huo Yuanjia at a very young age, and Chen Zhen did not teach him kung fu because of his weak body. Chen Zhen's initial kung fu was to steal his brothers and sisters, but later learned to tell Huo Yuanjia, Huo Yuanjia was surprised by his talent and taught him a lot of unique martial arts.
Later, after Huo Yuanjia was killed, Chen Zhen returned to China to avenge his master's grievances and justify the name of the Jingwuguan. Chen Zhen has the same reputation as Huo Yuanjia and has become a hero of heroic resistance against Japan, but in fact, many of the deeds of this character are fictional. Chen Zhen exists in history, but it is not the same as the legend.
The character of Chen Zhen may be tailor-made for Bruce Lee, and his life is a reference to Liu Zhensheng, who is Huo Yuanjia's eldest disciple. The personality is a reference to Chen Qimei, who was praised by Cai Yuanpei as a chivalrous warrior of past generations. And the martial arts are taken from Chen Gongzhe and Chen Tiesheng, Chen Gongzhe is the founder of the Jingwu Sports Association, and also the leadership core of Jingwu, this person once donated most of the family's money to the Jingwu Association, resulting in his own family's fall. Chen Tiesheng and Chen Gongzhe are both one of the Four Masters of Jingwu, and they are also extraordinary in the cultural circles, once in 1919 because of the Yihe Fist and lu Xun, who was already quite famous at that time.
In the legend, Chen Zhen was finally killed by the Japanese, and in 2007, Ni Kuang, the screenwriter of "Jingwumen", revealed that Chen Zhen was fictionalized by him, this person was the person he accidentally found that Huo Yuanjia had a disciple named this name, but the content and deeds were fictional. These three people are well-known in history, but they are all fake, and two may not exist at all.
