@0:38- 0:43 You see right here. That’s REAL WING CHUN! Ip man moving forward, intercepting, simultaneously attacking and blocking, followed up with a swift punch to the solar plexus of the general before the kick.
The entire fight is stylised but that moment demonstrates CLEAN Wing Chun. Excellent use of chi-sau, centre line, technique with the fist. There are these moments throughout the franchise where IP man demonstrates actual wing chun as opposed to techniques used for gratification. Real wing chun is not standing still like a dummy, waiting for your opponent to attack. Real wing chun is feeling the energy, flowing with it deflecting the energy by moving forward, closing the distance, attacking the centre line. The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. This is the philosophy and fundamental core principle of wing chun. This moment flawlessly encapsulates the concept of wing chun.
