[Commentary] Recently, the launch ceremony of the Jitai Taijiquan Network Exchange Competition (Hebei Division) was held in Handan, Hebei. Affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, Jitai and Taiwan moved "Taijiquan" exchanges online. About 2,000 Taijiquan martial arts professionals and enthusiasts exchanged "showdowns" online to promote the spirit of Chinese martial arts. Yang Zhenhe, the inheritor of Yang's Taijiquan, a national-level intangible cultural heritage, said that the culture on both sides of the strait is the same, and Hebei is one of the main sources of Taiji culture.

Taiwan compatriots, with their love for Chinese culture and the pursuit of a better life, have passed on and carried forward Tai Chi culture (in Taiwan) from generation to generation. Jitai promotes Tai Chi culture through network bridges, improves Tai Chi skills, and enhances mutual friendship.
【Explanation】In recent years, the exchange and cooperation of martial arts between Hebei and Taiwan has become increasingly popular, and a series of martial arts exchange activities have been carried out in the two places. Although the epidemic has not completely ended this year, people from the martial arts community in Jitai and Taiwan are looking forward to the enthusiasm of communication. They have specially adopted the "Internet + Tai Chi cultural exchange" method to organize and hold the Tai Chi Boxing Network Exchange Competition.

This year we conduct a Taijiquan exchange competition through an online platform, so that Taijiquan lovers on both sides of the strait and even around the world can compete on the same stage. It is believed that the network-based communication model will be the future trend. The convenience of the network will not only drive more people on both sides of the strait to participate in martial arts and tai chi, but it will also be an important opportunity to promote Chinese martial arts.
