我也有幸在这个场合分享一二关于怀念虽然只有一次深入交流,但留给我印象极其深刻的Sifu。
他的德学修为令我无比佩服,也感谢他以武术连接中国文化与欧洲。我们将继续用我们的办法,延续他的理想和期盼。
万幸是,我们和他的高徒和女儿等最亲近的接班人形成了更深的友谊,再见见面无比亲切,互赠礼物也很开心,我也很荣幸Stan把我分享的“一刀”的中文花名印成了名片。
Natalie很坚强,是新时代的国际女性,天资惊人,相信成为未来一代大师,而又这么可爱亲和感性,在看到高老师团队和我们一起拍摄,千一剪辑的纪念片时候也感动的哭了,我想是因为她里面那些记忆片段中纯粹的微笑,是跨越一切的爱。

Yi Mingzhu, a partner of Real Image, Nicolas Deschamps, the founder of the French company Real Works, and others attended the event as guests.

They also watched a commemorative video of Master Keith made by Pan Qianyi, the creator and the filming crew of the documentary "Wing Chun" composed of China Media Harmony and Real Image. Natalie, the daughter of Keith R. Kernspecht, expressed her remembrance of her father and gratitude to the organizers of the event and the guests present. Mr. Qiu Jiaqiu, the representative of Real Image, delivered a speech to express condolences to Grand Master Keith R. Kernspecht. In the second half of the event, Natalie, Stan and others had an in - depth exchange of Wing Chun skills with the teachers and students of the Beijing Wumei Wing Chun Gym.
Mr. Qiu Jiaqiu shared his thoughts after the event:
To fulfill Sifu Keith's wish, the institutional, academic and martial arts successors of EWTO, national representatives and the daughter of the martial arts inheritor came to China as promised. With the joint efforts of Professor Gao, Micheal, the curator and others, we completed this extremely precious China - Europe joint memorial ceremony to remember the beloved Grand Master Keith R. Kernspecht. Remember the Beloved Grand Master Prof. Dr. Keith R. Kernspecht
I was also honored to share some of my memories of Sifu on this occasion. Although I only had one in - depth communication with him, he left a deep impression on me.
I admire his moral and academic cultivation. I also thank him for connecting Chinese culture with Europe through martial arts. We will continue to carry on his ideals and expectations in our own way.
Fortunately, we have developed a deeper friendship with his close disciples and daughter, his closest successors. Meeting again was extremely cordial. We were happy to exchange gifts. I was also honored that Stan printed the Chinese nickname "Yidao" I shared on his business card.
Natalie is very strong. She is an international woman of the new era with amazing talent. I believe she will become a master of the next generation. She is also so lovely, amiable and emotional. When she saw the commemorative film shot by Professor Gao's team and us, and edited by Qianyi, she was moved to tears. I think it was because of the pure smiles in those memory clips, which were love beyond all boundaries.
