One fine day in the late years of the last century, in a small village in the East region in China, a group of village people, about twenty to thirty of them, were watching a spectacular Kung Fu show. A young man, who was in his early twenties, was demonstrating various styles of Kung Fu: Tiger, Eagle, Monkey and weapons.
The name of this young man was Lou Soei. At the age of fourteen he started Kung Fu training. He pursued training under seven well-known Kung Fu masters. Because he was very intelligent in eight years he had learnt all that the instructors had to offer. Though Lou Soei was brilliant at Kung Fu he was not being noticed until something happened to him. Snakes and wolves were known to come out in the evenings to look for food in the village region. That evening when Lou Soei was walking home a wolf chose him to be his delicious supper. The wolf jumped sharply and powerfully towards the young man, however, as he was not ordinary man, when he heard the strange noise he quickly stepped aside and avoided the vicious attack. The wolf turned in the speed of lightning and attacked again. This time Lou Soei was ready, he thrust his right leg directly at the wolf's throat, the wolf was hit so hard that it rolled several times on the floor. Lou Soei hurried forward and stepped heavily on the wolf, it stopped moving completely.
Suddenly, from the middle of the crowd a monk stepped forward and said loudly "young man your Kung Fu is just better than nothing. How can you stand so boldly in front of people and teach them?" Lou Soei stopped his demonstration and looked the monk up and down. In this situation one would probably be very angry and ask the monk to leave immediately, but as Lou Soei was a very modest young man, he replied politely, "From what you have said your Kung Fu must be at the very top level".
The old monk said "If you want to you are welcome to try me and you may hit me first". Lou Soei thought that this may be a good opportunity for him to learn more about Kung Fu and decided to try it. After they had both taken their stances, Lou Soei made the first move. He stepped forward and gave a straight punch. The monk moved his shoulder slightly and Lou Soei was sent flying a few yards away. Knowing his own standard Lou Soei realised that this monk was far superior. He knelt in front of the monk and begged him to accept him as his student. The monk agreed.
When the monk was sitting comfortably in Lou Soei's home, Lou Soei told him "I felt as if I was shocked by lightning when I made contact with you", and asked him how it was he could move so fast. The monk laughed and said "You had great strength but I was able to direct it back to you, hence your great force was used on yourself. The power I used to divert your strength is the type that comes from within called internal Chi power. The shock you received was due to the shock power I applied. Think about a Praying Mantis - it is an insect which has the power to overcome opponents three times its own size. The Tong Long Training System is designed to develop this kind of extraordinary power".
When the monk first saw Lou Soei he knew that he had the potential to be a Master of Kung Fu, and later he also realized that this young man had a humble heart, so he made up his mind to teach this high level Kung Fu to him and he hoped that he could serve his people and his country.
In six years Lou Soei had learnt everything from the monk, and then the monk told him that "it was time for them to go their separate ways". Being a lover of nature, the monk whose name was Wong Fook Go went on to travel extensively. Lou Soei was a man who greatly respected Wong Fook Go and the founder of CHOW FAMILY TONG LONG - Chow Ah Naam. Though he was the top man in Kung Fu, he did not start a new style of his own. He used the name CHOW FAMILY TONG LONG in recognition of the style's founder. Lou Soei had many Kung Fu schools in China and Hong Kong and thousands of students.
