Hello everyone, today let's talk about a far-reaching story - Bruce Lee's family. This story is not only a kung fu legend, but also a family inheritance with ups and downs. Without further ado, let's unveil this legendary chapter together.
Jumping back to Hong Kong in 1973, Bruce Lee closed his legendary life at Mount Elizabeth Hospital on a July evening at the age of 33. The media uproar, Bruce Lee's death became the focus of global attention, but the various rumors about the cause of his death made people overwhelmed. Later, Hong Kong's "New Star Daily" broke the news in an "exclusive" way, saying that Bruce Lee did not die at home, but fell into a coma in the bed of star Ding, which is even more bizarre than the movie.
According to the report, Bruce Lee "chatted" at Ding's house the night before, and soon after he fell unconscious in Ding's bed. Ding was shocked and hurriedly dialed the private doctor's phone, but in the end he was helpless and could only send Bruce Lee to Elizabeth Hospital. This revelation makes the whole story even more confusing and adds a layer of mystery to this kung fu legend.
On July 25, Bruce Lee's body was transported back to the Kowloon Funeral Parlour in Tai Kok Tsui, and Hong Kong City seemed to be enveloped in mourning. Thousands of citizens poured into the funeral home, and the Hong Kong government dispatched nearly a thousand police officers to maintain order. This unprecedented scene can't help but make people feel emotional, and Bruce Lee's status in the hearts of everyone can be seen.
Then, Bruce Lee's coffin was transported to Seattle, USA, which is both the origin of his kung fu dream and the place of his home. Did you know that Bruce Lee founded the "Zhen Fan Guoshu Museum" here, laying the cornerstone for his own dream of martial arts, and also laying the groundwork for the later inheritance of kung fu.
After the coffin arrived in Seattle, Bruce Lee was once again greeted by his family and friends. At that moment, we can imagine that small but warm ceremony, the family silently said goodbye, and there may be endless thoughts of this legend in their hearts. Lakeview Cemetery became Bruce Lee's final resting place, a beautiful and peaceful place that kept him forever in the midst of the lake and mountains.
Bruce Lee's grave is covered in crimson marble, and his English name "Bruce Lee" is engraved on the tombstone, his original Chinese name Li Zhenfan, and the year of birth and death. The black marble stone carvings above the tombstone are even more eye-catching, with the Yin Yang Fish Taiji Diagram and the profound Kung Fu philosophy, as if it were a picture scroll of life, condensing his unique understanding of martial arts.
