Book excerpt: 中国功夫，在漫长历史时光中，从来都是闪烁着灿烂的爱国主义光辉。每当国家处于危难之际，总有身怀绝技的武林高手、仁人志士挺身而出，前赴后继：一身报国有万死、须把乾坤力挽回。他们加入国家复兴主流，一次次化险为夷，变乱为治，蹶而复振。 Kung Fu is the culmination of thousands of years of traditional Chinese culture. There are many schools of Chinese Kung Fu, famous ones including Shaolin, Wudang, Tai Chi, Hsing-I and Eight Diagrams. Over thousands of years of continuous development and evolution, Kung Fu has developed into the ultimate form of practical martial arts combat, namely, freestyle grappling. Though the techniques are constantly changing, the mentality of Chinese Kung Fu to support justice and defend the nation has remained unchanged. As we can see in the history of Chinese Kung Fu, there's a prominent theme of “patriotism” between the lines. This is the supreme core enabling Chinese Kung Fu to continue and flourish.
