"Ip Man 4" plot synopsis:
Ip Man, who started a school in Hong Kong to teach martial arts, travels to the U.S. due to a family matter, only to witness the discrimination and bullying by the local foreigners against the Chinese. Coinciding with the opening of his disciple Bruce Lee's martial arts school in the US, he suffers the same blowback and oppression. In the face of repeated questions and provocations from American military officers against the Chinese and Chinese Kung Fu in the US, Ip Man strikes again and fights back with Wing Chun, proving Chinese Kung Fu and demonstrating the style of a great master of his generation.
Accidentally involved in a dispute between local military forces and a Chinese martial arts school, and faced with increasingly rampant ethnic discrimination and oppression, Ip Man stepped forward to fight to the death in the U.S. Marine Corps barracks to prove Chinese kung fu to the world with authentic Wing Chun.
