I was driving my cousin from asia who is a chef, knows all about Chinese food to check out different Chinese food concept sunday. We came to this new age chinese food place, it looked very Zen, and my cousin order a dish; he tasted a spoon and tell me, this is fast food mix not chinese food cooking, althought it's decoration looks more then chinese.
I think, Chinese Martial Art is an art, it has its "artistic and technology".
One can not hire a movie director, plot writter, a few actors, a few on line New Age people to create a CMA style. Undoubtfully, these people can make some movie similar to Shaw Brothers, but A CMA style has to have its depth.
A lots of sweat and blood but as in chinese, it said that ---- those who knows what is going on move thier hand, one will know he has "it" or not.
I think it is similar to food, just a tea spoon, the chef can tell what is it.
Nice story. I agree. The true chef doesn't follow a "recipe." The true Wing Chun master doesn't either. Follows the broad theme of this thread.
