8Th World Kungfu Championships Emeishan, China 8th World Kungfu Championships Emeishan, China 8th World Kungfu Championships Emeishan, China A Brief Introduction to Emeishan City Emeishan City is located on the southwestern edge of Sichuan Basin with an area of 1,183 square kilometres. Mount Emei is a cultural and natural heritage of the world and a national AAAAA scenic area. With the rich cultural deposits and tourism resources, Emeishan is an excellent tourist city in China and an emerging tourist city in Asia. Emeishan is rich in resources and has the most typical and best preserved subtropical vegetations in the world. With more than 3,700 types of higher plants, accounting for one tenth of the total amount in the country, the city is known as the “Botany Kingdom”; with more than 2,300 types of wild animals, it is known as the “Animal Kingdom”; with 63.3% of the forest coverage rate, it is known as the “Natural Oxygen Bar”; with most townships located at the elevation between 800 and 1,500 meters, it is also known as “Emei Nanshan” Health Preservation Resort. Yellow Emperor, Emperor Taizong of Song, Emperor Kangxi, Li Bai, Su Shi, Xu Xiake, Sun Simiao, Nan Huaijin, Deng Xiaoping, Guo Moruo, Xi Jinping, etc. have all been on Mount Emei, leaving many anecdotes. At present, Emeishan City has expanded the “nine-in-one” industrial chain including a cup of tea, a bottle of wine, a bucket of water, a bowl of soup, a set of quan, a scene of play, a piece of song, a piece of needle and an event of exhibition. A set of quan here is just the epitome of the development of our Emei wushu. Emeishan is the origin of Emei wushu, which was legendarily evolved from Tongbei Quan, founded by Situ Xuankong during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and now Zhongfeng Temple has been proven as the birthplace of Emei wushu. The five thousand years of history has nurtured the splendid civilization and created the beautiful Emei. Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have been collided, blended, developed and innovated here for thousands of years, forming the primary Emeishan Culture with the core of “Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, food, tea, wushu and medicine”. In the new era, Emeishan will continue to enhance the popularity and reputation of “Grand Emei” world-class tourism and culture brand and strive to create the “Model City of Green Hills and Clear Waters”. 8th World Kungfu Championships Emeishan, China Contents 1.

After the resounding success of the 7th WKFC two years ago, we happily return again to celebrate traditional wushu at Emeishan, one of the four sacred Buddhist mountains in China. This UNESCO World Natural and Cultural Heritage Site’s rich history of traditional wushu makes it an ideal place to spotlight the wealth of dynamic kungfu styles we will see during this event. More than 5,000 participants from almost 50 countries and regions come to Emeishan to illustrate with skill, passion and power how wushu’s legacy has set down deep roots around the globe. Competitors of all ages, all levels, and all disciplines meet here at this sport-for-all event. Athletes come to test their mettle, but our large wushu community also is eager to connect here in this special place, to share the richness of traditional wushu styles, make friends, and take part in lively cultural exchange. We are pleased to offer participants the opportunity to learn history and technique from some of the world’s top wushu experts in 8th WKFC seminar program. And, for the second time, this event will also be broadcast across China and around the world, promoting the beauty and diversity of traditional wushu to an audience eager to learn more about this sport. I thank the Chinese Wushu Association for hosting this monumental event, again the largest traditional wushu competition in the world; and I offer my deep appreciation for the hospitality and organization of the Sports Bureau of Sichuan Province and Leshan Municipal People's Government. I wish all competitors the best of luck and I hope everyone will enjoy their stay in beautiful Emeishan. Yu Zaiqing President, International Wushu Federation (IWUF) Vice President, International Olympic Committee (IOC) Vice President, Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) 1 8th World Kungfu Championships Emeishan∙China Speech at the 8th World Kungfu Championships Zhang Qiuping Today, the 8th World Kungfu Championships is solemnly opened in Emeishan City. On behalf of the Chinese Wushu Association, I would like to take this opportunity to express my warm congratulations on the success of the 8th World Kungfu Championships. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the Sichuan Sports Bureau, Leshan Municipal People's Government, Emeishan Municipal People's Government and all friends from all walks of life who have worked hard to organize this event. Warm welcome to athletes, coaches, judges, officials and guests from all over the world. The 8th World Kungfu Championships, with more than 6400 athletes from more than 50 countries and regions in the world, is the largest wushu event ever held. We believe that the organization of the Championships will enable friends of international Wushu communities to deepen their understanding of China and enhance their understanding of China. We also believe that through the organization of this event, Wushu friends from home and abroad can not only experience Chinese civilization, but also make Wushu friends widely. At the same time, they can enjoy the natural customs and human history of Mount Emei. We also firmly believe that the staging of this event will further promote the mutual learning of Chinese and foreign civilizations and cultural exchanges, and more widely convey peace and friendship, health and happiness. I wish the 8th World Kungfu Championships a complete success! Zhang Qiuping President of Chinese Wushu Association 2 8th World Kungfu Championships Emeishan, China Speech from General Manager of HengYuanXiang Dear athletes, Dear wushu enthusiasts from all over the world, Hello! In June the IWUF 8th World Kungfu Championships will be held in Emeishan, Sichuan, China. On behalf of the International Wushu Federation’s global partner Heng Yuan Xiang (Group) Co., Ltd. (HYX), I wish great success for this event. Based on a mutual appreciation for wushu, the partnership between Heng Yuan Xiang and the International Wushu Federation (IWUF) began in 2012. Through our continued and growing involvement in the sport and open communication with the IWUF, HYX has come to further understand wushu, love wushu, and work to build wushu’s cultural “brand.” Our own brand “Heng Yuan Xiang” is a name that incorporates the essence of traditional Chinese culture: “Heng” represents the right time, “Yuan” means the right place, and “Xiang” stands for the right people. “Being at the right place at the right time with the right people” is the same spirit that wushu embodies; we believe that wushu is not found only in competition, but also as part of a healthy lifestyle, and that wushu should be enjoyed by all mankind. With common goals such as these, it is only natural that we have become a global partner of the IWUF, and look forward to the future as wushu enthusiasts’ participation continues to grow. May the IWUF 8th World Kungfu Championships be a complete success! Richard Chen

  • Warriors As the Feminised Other
    Warriors as the Feminised Other The study of male heroes in Chinese action cinema from 2000 to 2009 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chinese Studies at the University of Canterbury by Yunxiang Chen University of Canterbury 2011 i Abstract ―Flowery boys‖ (花样少年) – when this phrase is applied to attractive young men it is now often considered as a compliment. This research sets out to study the feminisation phenomena in the representation of warriors in Chinese language films from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Mainland China made in the first decade of the new millennium (2000-2009), as these three regions are now often packaged together as a pan-unity of the Chinese cultural realm. The foci of this study are on the investigations of the warriors as the feminised Other from two aspects: their bodies as spectacles and the manifestation of feminine characteristics in the male warriors. This study aims to detect what lies underneath the beautiful masquerade of the warriors as the Other through comprehensive analyses of the representations of feminised warriors and comparison with their female counterparts. It aims to test the hypothesis that gender identities are inventory categories transformed by and with changing historical context. Simultaneously, it is a project to study how Chinese traditional values and postmodern metrosexual culture interacted to formulate Chinese contemporary masculinity. It is also a project to search for a cultural nationalism presented in these films with the examination of gender politics hidden in these feminisation phenomena. With Laura Mulvey‘s theory of the gaze as a starting point, this research reconsiders the power relationship between the viewing subject and the spectacle to study the possibility of multiple gaze as well as the power of spectacle.

  • Congratulations to Wudang San Feng Pai!
    LIFE / HEALTH & FITNESS / FITNESS & EXERCISE Congratulations to Wudang San Feng Pai! February 11, 2013 8:35 PM MST View all 5 photos Master Zhou Xuan Yun (left) presented Dr. Ming Poon (right) Wudang San Feng Pai related material for a permanent display at the Library of Congress. Zhou Xuan Yun On Feb. 1, 2013, the Library of Congress of the United States hosted an event to receive Wudang San Feng Pai. This event included a speech by Taoist (Daoist) priest and Wudang San Feng Pai Master Zhou Xuan Yun and the presentation of important Wudang historical documents and artifacts for a permanent display at the Library. Wudang Wellness Re-established in recent decades, Wudang San Feng Pai is an organization in China, which researches, preserves, teaches and promotes Wudang Kung Fu, which was said originally created by the 13th century Taoist Monk Zhang San Feng. Some believe that Zhang San Feng created Tai Chi (Taiji) Chuan (boxing) by observing the fight between a crane and a snake. Zhang was a hermit and lived in the Wudang Mountains to develop his profound philosophy on Taoism (Daoism), internal martial arts and internal alchemy. The Wudang Mountains are the mecca of Taoism and its temples are protected as one of 730 registered World Heritage sites of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Wudang Kung Fu encompasses a wide range of bare-hand forms of Tai Chi, Xingyi and Bagua as well as weapon forms for health and self-defense purposes. Traditionally, it was taught to Taoist priests only. It was prohibited to practice during the Chinese Cultural Revolution (1966- 1976).
