After Lu's Taijiquan was unsuccessfully selected as a national intangible cultural heritage, the inheritor initiated a "appeal"

　　Nothing happened to Lu's Taijiquan: After losing the election of national intangible cultural heritage, the inheritor initiated a "appeal"

　　Several inheritors of Lushi Taijiquan in Guangping County, Handan, Hebei, are unwilling.

　　Earlier this year, the State Council announced the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative project lists and expanded project lists. Compared with the 15 projects that Hebei Province had entered the publicity stage before, only Lu's Taijiquan in Guangping County was finally approved. Stopped at the gate of national intangible cultural heritage.

　　"This result makes us unacceptable." Lu Shangqi, one of the inheritors of Lu's Taijiquan, introduced to The Paper a few days ago that he and the two inheritors, Lu Kuien and Lu Kuizhen, have jointly submitted a "appeal material" to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. , Which mentioned, “I hope that the Intangible Heritage Department of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism will send a working group to Guangping County to investigate the Lu-style Taijiquan related issues, and organize the experts who participated in the review to conduct in-depth discussions, and restore the fifth batch of Lu-style Taijiquan countries. A list of intangible cultural heritage items."

　　A person familiar with the matter from the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism said, “(Lushi Taijiquan declaration for intangible cultural heritage) materials are available in all counties and provinces. It’s okay to push upwards level by level. Our province The experts here also agree."

　　"But we still need to solicit opinions from all parties on this matter. The State Sports General Administration still has opinions." According to his understanding, one possible reason for the unsuccessful declaration of Lu's Taijiquan Evidence of Shi Tai Chi".

He said, "Initially, social sciences are not like natural sciences. One is one, and two is two. Generally speaking, if there are objections, this project will not be established."

　　However, Lu Shangqi pointed out that many types of boxing are not on the list and they are also national intangible cultural heritage.

After the "appeal materials" were sent to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, they have not received a reply.

The only unsuccessful project in the province

　　In order to confirm and protect the same intangible cultural heritage project that is inherited in different regions or different communities and groups, my country has established an expanded project list starting from the second batch of national-level project lists.

The expansion project shares the same project number with the projects of the same name that have been included in the national intangible cultural heritage list before, but the project characteristics and inheritance status are different, and the protection units are also different.

　　In December last year, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism publicized the list of recommended projects in the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative project lists. A total of 15 intangible cultural heritage projects in Hebei Province were selected, of which 5 were newly selected projects, such as "South Road, Xingtai City" "Sixian" and "Jia's Qingping Sword" in Huanghua City, Cangzhou City, have 10 expansion projects, such as "Shahe Shadow Play" in Shahe City of Xingtai, and "Lushi Taijiquan" in Guangping County are also among the expansion projects.

　　An earlier report by Hebei News Network mentioned that Lu's Taijiquan was based on the essence of Lu Mingjin from Guangping County (now Guangping County, Handan City, Hebei Province) during the Daoguang Period of the Qing Dynasty. Easy to maintain health.

As the world has a deep understanding of Lu's Taijiquan, there are many practitioners at home and abroad.

　　However, until June of this year, the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative projects was released, and Lushi Taijiquan became the only project in the province that was unsuccessful.

　　In fact, on April 8 this year, the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism received the "Letter on Please Investigate and Verify "Lushi Taijiquan" from the Intangible Cultural Heritage Department of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

Afterwards, the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism asked the Wushu Sports Management Center of the Provincial Sports Bureau to assist in providing information on the inheritance and spread of Lu's Taijiquan in the martial arts and sports fields, and instructed the Handan Municipal Bureau of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Guangping County Government to conduct special investigations.

　　Relevant letters revealed that Lu's Taijiquan is a provincial-level intangible cultural heritage project in Hebei. In 2019, it applied for the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage projects to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, and it has been selected for the public list.

When the Ministry of Culture and Tourism reported to the State Council for review,

Shi

　　After investigation and research in the province, in the same month, the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism stated in the materials reported to the Intangible Cultural Heritage Department of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism that

　　According to the complaint materials of Lu Kuien, Lu Kuizhen and Lu Shangqi, the inheritors of Lu's Taijiquan, Lu's Taijiquan is an intangible cultural heritage of Handan City and Hebei Province. The investigation, identification and recommendation of the Tourism Bureau and the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, and the evaluation of national experts randomly selected from the evaluation expert database by the Intangible Cultural Heritage Department of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, and were selected into the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative project list recommendations List.

They said that in the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists announced in June 2021, the "Lushi Taijiquan" was removed for no reason. The people of Guangping in Handan feel very sorry and very regretful.

　　The complaint material also mentioned that the successors of Lu's Taijiquan represented by Lu Kui'en and Lu Kui Town have voluntarily taught Taijiquan in Guangping County, Hebei Province for more than 60 years, and thousands of students have contributed to the promotion of Lu's Taijiquan. Great contribution.

However, they are already old. Facing such a rare type of boxing with a mature theoretical system and complete equipment, they not only need to dig and sort out, but also need to train new talents to spread this outstanding type of boxing.

The declaration of national intangible cultural heritage is an important support for the protection of this martial arts treasure.

"If there is any objection, this project will not be established"

　　Recently, a person familiar with the matter from the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism said in an interview with The Paper that “the "Chinese Wushu Equipment Directory" did not find evidence of the Lu's Taijiquan project", which may be a reason for the failure of the declaration.

　　“Initially, social sciences are not like natural sciences. One is one, two is two. Generally speaking, if there is an objection, this project will not be established." He said that there is an objection because it is not widely recognized. The specific reason is the country (related Department) did not tell us.

"This matter is available in the county and the province, and it is no problem to push it up level by level. Our provincial experts also agree that it is possible, but the opinions of all parties need to be sought on this matter. There are opinions, this is the situation."

　　From 1982 to 1986, the former National Sports Commission conducted a large-scale excavation of boxing types and identified 129 types of boxing.

For example, Tai Chi recognized the five schools of Chen, Yang, Wu, Wu, and Sun.

　　Public reports show that at that time, the former National Sports Commission put forward the requirements of "orderly origin, clear boxing theory, unique style, and self-contained system", which became the basic standard for identifying boxing types.

In 1991, the former Wushu Research Institute of the National Sports Commission selected 71 types of boxing with more detailed content and published a list of related types, which recorded the origins, principles, characteristics, techniques, routines, and confrontation forms of the types of boxing.

The staff of the Wushu Sports Management Center of the State General Administration of Sports previously introduced that the certification in the 1980s basically covered the main types of martial arts.

If the people want to identify a new type of boxing, they must first apply to the Wushu Sports Management Center, and then be reviewed by experts.

　　In an interview with The Paper, Lu Shangqi pointed out that the original National Sports Commission recognized 129 types of boxing, but many types of boxing are not listed in the "List of Chinese Wushu Equipment" and are also national intangible cultural heritage, such as Wang Qihe Taijiquan and Li Xingtai, Hebei. Tai Chi.

The standard for identifying national intangible cultural heritage is "inheritance for three generations in 100 years." Lu Style Taijiquan has been inherited for seven or eight generations from Master Lu Mingjin to the present, which fully meets the standards for identifying intangible cultural heritage at the national level.

　　In addition, in his view, the relevant departments are self-denying, "They selected 11 experts from the national expert group database to conduct public announcements, and they cancelled them after the public announcement period."

　　Lu Shangqi recalled that in June of this year, he had reported to the top once. Around October 12, a staff member of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism responded by telephone, "(The staff) did not clearly explain the reason for canceling our project. The explanation is not clear, saying that publicity does not mean that the final results are announced."

　　The Paper tried to learn the details of the communication between the two parties from the above-mentioned staff of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

The staff member declined to disclose, saying that he had explained to the other party in accordance with the procedures.

　　A staff member of the Intangible Cultural Heritage Department of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism said in a recent interview that he did not know the specific reason why Lu Shi Tai Chi was not listed as a national intangible cultural heritage, but gave a general introduction to the process.

He said that any review has a process of recommendation, review, publicity, and announcement.

The purpose of publicity is: if any unit or individual has an objection to this project, they can raise it, and if anyone reports a problem in the process, they have to study and deal with it.

If the reported problem is true, the project will be removed.

　　He pointed out that in China, there are still many provinces and regions with subdivided types of Tai Chi, which is a more professional problem.

Article 21 of the "Intangible Cultural Heritage Law" stipulates that the same intangible cultural heritage item, whose form and connotation are maintained in two or more regions, can be included in the national intangible cultural heritage representative item list at the same time .

"The Ministry of Culture and Tourism will report the list of proposed recommendations to the State Council. The State Council will also solicit opinions from relevant departments, such as Tai Chi. Because Tai Chi is a sports item, the State Council will solicit the opinions of the General Administration of Sports. If the General Administration of Sports raises different opinions, see Whether the State Council will adopt them. Some projects, the State Council has solicited opinions from the competent authorities and found it to be inappropriate, and they may be removed."

The staff member of the

Heritage Department said.

　　It is worth noting that the aforementioned person from the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism also mentioned the dispute between Lu-style Taijiquan and Gu-style Taijiquan during the interview.

He said, "Gu Dianyi was standing on the side of the Gu family. He is a legendary figure. There is no evidence to test. Lu is testable. The martial arts circle always does this. As long as the (Lu Shi Taijiquan project) reports it, There are still people over there telling me how many years of grievances have been accumulated."

　　There is more than one name for this door Taijiquan.

According to public information,

　　Among them, Lu Mingjin, the fifth-generation successor, is considered to have contributed the most to this fist. He wrote "Fist Book", "Gun Book" and "Sword Book" and other works of this school of martial arts, making this school of martial arts famous in Shanxi, Hebei, Luyu Tai Chi school, later generations appreciate the merits of Lu Mingjin, so he called this boxing "Lu Shi Tai Chi".

　　This person from the Hebei Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism was surprised by this "complaint" by the inheritor of Lu's Taijiquan.

　　He said, "Why are there still people appealing this matter? In fact, this is impossible to change, how can it be released?"
