From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wong Gong (黄江) (born 1928) is a native of Jiang Men city and present Keeper of the Hung Sing School of Jiang Men. He studied kung fu with his father as a child and later became a disciple of Chan Cheong Mo. With his teacher Chan Cheong Mo’s permission, he continued his studies from Chan Yen (陈恩), the chief instructor of Ging Mui Village’s Hung Sing School. Chan Yen learned Choy Lee Fut from his father Chan Yau Kau (陈有球) who was the student of the founder of Choy Lee Fut, Chan Heung. In 1949, the Communists took over mainland China. Before Wong Gong moved to Hong Kong both of his teachers told him to continue teaching kung fu in Hong Kong in order to keep the Choy Lee Fut system alive. Today, Wong Gong has over 50,000 active student memberships down through 6 generations from him all around the world. His number one disciple is Grandmaster Doc-Fai Wong, president of the Plum Blossom International Federation.
