Follow me, don't have to pay the "overnight party"!
Huang Jiada
In the mid-1960s, under the leadership of Shaw's leading director Zhang Che, a new era of kung fu films was opened, and since then, with the rise of film and television companies such as Jiahe and New Art City, kung fu films have been pushed to the peak. In this legendary period, many martial arts superstars have emerged, the most representative of which are Bruce Lee, Wang Yu, Liang Xiaolong, Zhen Zidan, Jet Li and so on.
The one we want to talk about today, he has also left a strong mark in the action film world, but only regards acting as a hobby. He is the founder of "Comprehensive Fist" - Huang Jiada.

Speaking of the name Huang Jiada, perhaps only friends who are obsessed with kung fu films will have an impression of him, but when it comes to his prestige in the martial arts world, it is like thunder and international fame.
In 1947, the sons and daughters of China suffered from war. Wong Ka Tat, a Hong Kong boy, was born in that era when the smoke of war was thick.
Because of this, he was very obsessed with martial arts when he was a child, dreaming of becoming a real hero one day.
When Huang Jiada was eight years old, he began to learn martial arts with the support of his family, and for more than ten years, he has successively visited Japan, the "birthplace of Muay Thai", Thailand, and south Korea, the "founding country of taekwondo".
In the 1970s, Bruce Lee returned to Hong Kong with a body of glory from the United States, starring in the kung fu film "Jingwumen" launched by Jiahe Company, which immediately set off a frenzied "kung fu boom" after its release, winning the box office at the same time, Jiahe also became famous.
The following year, in order to increase the gimmick, Jiahe found Huang Jiada, who was famous in the martial arts world, and tailored the kung fu film "Aikido" for him. In this star-studded film, there are Liang Xiaolong, Huang Renzhi and other powerful factions to join the star, a move a hard bridge hard horse, I believe that friends who have seen it will be bloody and addictive.

According to anecdotal rumors, during the filming of "Aikido", Bruce Lee came to visit the class, a boxing master, a free fighting master, and it was inevitable that the skills would be itchy after feeling sorry for each other, and the two had exchanged ideas many times.
There is no definite information about the combat effectiveness of Wong Ka Tat and Bruce Lee, who wins and who loses. But on the other hand, after all, both of them have great achievements in promoting martial arts, and they have brought national arts to the world. Now, Bruce Lee has been gone for many years, and out of respect, there is no need to continue to repeat it.

After that, Huang Jiada was invited by Shao to star in "Yongzheng Fate Lost Shaolin Gate". Friends who have watched the film, I believe they will complain, the plot is very protracted, and there is a head disorder, making people look confused.
Regrettably, despite the efforts of Huang Jiada and Tan Daoliang, two kung fu masters, they still failed to save this inferior quality film.
To tell a joke, friends who have seen this movie, the impression is still more profound, it should be the two highly lethal gorillas, right?
In addition to the above works, from 1972 to 1978, in these 6 years, Huang Jiada also participated in films such as "Eight Gate Sect", "Burning Shaolin Temple", "Dragon-shaped Diao Hand Golden Bell Cover" and so on, which were few in terms of production and could not be compared with other stars.
The reason why Huang Jiada has participated in few film works is actually very simple: he is a person who has become a fool of martial arts, and for him to make movies, he just wants to carry forward the martial arts, and the purpose has been achieved, so naturally there is no need to be tired of running for his life.

In 1979, Wong Ka Tat, who was well known for his kung fu skills and performance in the film industry, was invited by the Royal Hong Kong Police Department to serve as the "Karate Coach" of the Police Corps to enhance the strength of the Force.
Being able to become the coach of the police team shows that Huang Jiada is not a vain "flower shelf", compared with the so-called "masters" today, he is a real "instant combat" martial arts master.
During his time as a coach in the Hong Kong Police Force, Wong Ka-ta did not forget to learn martial arts, and for several years, he successively achieved the "Japan Hard Karate Federation General Stream Hall Black Belt Eight Dan" and "Korean Boxing Association Black Belt Eight Dan".
In terms of identifying the depth of martial arts attainments, I believe that people who love martial arts can only worship Huang Jiada, who is a martial artist.
In 1982, in order to better promote martial arts and to seek better development, Huang Jiada moved to the United States, where he created his own "comprehensive boxing" and opened a martial arts hall to recruit disciples.
In 1984, Huang Jiada was invited to serve as the head coach of the New York State Police Headquarters and the head coach of the U.S. Marine Corps martial arts.
During the opening of the museum in the United States, Huang Jiada's former friends Hong Jinbao, YuanHua, Zhen Zidan, etc. visited and exchanged martial arts many times. Huang Jiada, who is in a foreign country, when he sees his compatriots who have been absent for a long time, he can't hide his joy and smile very happily.

Stallone is a well-known international martial arts superstar, but few people know that he also studied kung fu at Wong Ka Tat's martial arts gym. In addition, even Wei Feng, the chairman of the International Boxing Federation, has also been under his disciples.

It can be seen that Huang Jiada's influence in the international martial arts community is very large.
In 2003, although he was thousands of miles away in the United States, when Huang Jiada received an invitation from the preparatory team of the Beijing Free Fighting Competition, he immediately took his disciples to gladly go there, and after the game, he also competed with many martial arts celebrities.
In 2007, in the action film "Wusheng Love" directed by Lai Qinglin, starring taekwondo master Shi Tianlong, Huang Jiada was invited to join, playing a monk with strong kung fu in the film.
Judging from the title alone, it may be just an ordinary kung fu film name, but for Huang Jiada, who has been away from the film industry for many years, it has a "nostalgic" meaning.
In recent years, Wong Ka Tat has been fascinated by his martial arts career, rarely appearing in the media, and his legend is still enduring.
epilogue:
It is worth mentioning that after moving to the United States for many years, Huang Jiada is still a Chinese national, and he has expressed his nostalgia for his mother many times: "In order to develop the martial arts career, although I am in the United States, my heart is still in China, and China is my root!" ”
I have to say that along the way, from a martial arts enthusiast to a martial arts master, although Huang Jiada's career in film is extremely short, and there are very few works dedicated to action fans, as a Chinese, Huang Jiada has always adhered to the spirit of "not forgetting the original", worthy of a generation of martial arts masters, and his martial arts spirit and patriotic spirit are worthy of respect and respect.
