PONGFU LITERACY
Kungfu and ping pong have been handed down from one generation 
to another in Chinese families throughout the ages.  But the 
percentage of population doing that is small.  And the styles in their 
strokes are not optimized, leading to their fading away.
We need to re-introduce this tradition into our education system.  
Kungfu and ping pong should be consolidated into one sport, to be 
called Pongfu.  Pongfu should be researched and enhanced to provide 
a level playing field for all, particularly in terms of enabling speed to 
overcome power to bring about gender equity.
Today we have ping pong in college clubs and rarely even in accredit 
curricula.  What we need to do is to first put it through a laboratory, 
with the objective of developing an equalizing style between women 
and man.  And for it to be incorporated into classrooms, it should also 
be made gradable.  But most important of all is to produce a 
standardized, systematic practicing procedure that guarantees results. 
I have started off one such project in my Pongfu Lab, in a penthouse in 
Yanji, China and also in my garage with cathedral ceiling at home.   On 
and off for more than 20 years, I struggled to make Pongfu real.  
Now at 77, I have put the final product of this research and 
development project through real-world testing in the U.S. National 
and U.S. Open Table Tennis Championships in 2019.  Pongfu survived 
the age group 75+ event up to the Final in the National, and in the 
Open, I was the champion.
After proving that Pongfu is a contender style in the sport of table 
tennis, now thanks to the Covid19 lockdown in America during 2020 
and 2021, and free from the pressure for improving just on one rigid 
and fixed style, I was able to significantly modify and enhance the 
style, as well as trying out some unorthodox practice regiment.  The 
new emphasis is on neutralizing a power player by picking up the ball 
early on the bounce for every shot.
But the most promising news is that I became addicted to the daily 
drilling.  Isn't that what we need to fill the exercise vacuum in most 
people's lives today .
Now I can live at least to the day I cannot play Pongfu anymore!
In the coming age of automation, Pongfu will be made the new 
replacement for the disappearing jobs.  The feeling of fulfillment from 
improvement would provide the satisfaction that the old-style job 
once brought to its holder.  
And when the levels of playing skills are also being used to rank 
everybody's status in the society, that determines the level of 
"incomes", Pongfu literacy will take hold among the populace.
As Pongfu literacy reaches a critical mass of global acceptance, 
Pongfu's likeliness to military combat would make it a potential 
candidate to replace wars that have been used to resolve 
international disputes.  Why, haven't we once resolved our disputes 
with Kungfu, fencing and fast draws in duels.
By now, after a journey through a research laboratory, Pongfu will 
become a branch of science on its own, that would include practically 
all major areas of knowledge.  In reality, a Pongfu literacy class should 
carry the other 50% weight of a balanced education of a modern 
literate person.  
Pongfu guarantees fitness of the body and brain.  And when it 
evolutes to the point where it could also improve the fitness of the 
heart, or conscience, we will understand why we want it to replace 
wars.
Some mottos are in orders to close this presentation:
"A practice session missed is a day lost in life."
"A point drilled is one less in life."
Finally, from the world's largest heavy industry company, the Three-
Heavy Company's
company motto:
"There is always someone, who's busier than you, doing exercise 
now."

             乓夫知识分子
功夫和乒乓在很多中国家庭中代代相传。但这样做的家庭比例很小。
并且他们的招数风格没有被优化过，导致他们逐渐消失。
我们需要将这一体育传统引入我们的教育体系。功夫和乒乓球应该
合并为单项运动，称之为乓夫。我们应该研究和加强 乓夫，为所有
人提供一个公平的比赛环境，特别是在速度克服力量以实现性别方
面的平等。
今天，我们在大学有乒乓球团队，甚至在实际课程中也一些有乒乓
球教学。我们需要做的是先把它通过实验室，目的是发展一种可使
男女平等的打法。为了将其纳入课堂，它还应该是可被打分数的。
但最重要的是制定一个标准和系统化的、而且能看到效力的练习程
序。
我已经在我的 乓夫实验室、处于中国延吉的一间顶层公寓，以及我
家的车库里开始了一个这样的研究项目。断断续续地努力了 20 多
年，希望能把乓夫变为现实。
现在我已经 77 岁了。在 2019 年美国全国和美国世界公开赛的乒乓
球比赛中，我将这个研发项目的最终产品真实地测试了一下。乓夫 
在美国全国的 75+ 年龄组的比赛中幸存到决赛，而在世界公开赛
75+ 年龄组中，我赢得了冠军。
当证明了乓夫在乒乓球运动上有实际的竞争能力之后，加上多亏了
美国在 2020 年和 2021 年期间的 新冠疫情 封锁给我的机会，我得
逞摆脱了仅一种的固定的旧打法，并且能够显着地修改和增强一些
创新的风格，以及尝试一些非正统的练习方式。新的重点是 通过在
每次球在弹跳时 尽早击球 来用速度去抵制有强大力量的球员。
但最可喜的消息是，我开始沉迷于日常的操练。这不正是我们需要
填补当今大多数人生活中 运动的真空吗？
现在我至少可以活到我打不动乓夫的那一天了！
在即将到来的自动化时代，乓夫 将成为正在消失的职业岗位的新替
代项目。乓夫技术上的进步将可带来旧式职业的满足感。
而当乓夫技巧也被用来对每个人在社会中的地位进行排名，由此决
定了每个人应得到的"收入"时，乓夫文化也就会站稳脚步了。
随着乓夫知识达到被全球接受的境界，而乓夫竞赛又是如此相似军
事战斗，这将使其成为 取代用于解决国际争端之战争的 潜在候选
项目，就像我们也曾经用功夫，击剑和快速拔枪来解决过个人的纠
纷。
到目前为止，度过了一个长期实验室的旅程，乓夫 将成为一个独立
的学科，也几乎涵盖所有主要知识领域。实际上，一个乓夫教学班 
应该承担现代知识分子教育50% 的重视。反之，没有了乓夫素养，
他不仅不能在乒乓球台上生存，而且还会沦陷为文盲和残疾人。
乓夫是用来保证身体和大脑的健康。当它发展到可以改善心脏，那
就是良心，的健康时，我们就会明白为什么要用它来代替战争。
以下一些乓夫座右铭是用来结束本写着：
"错过一次练习，生命缩短了一天。"
"这辈子，打一球，少一球。"
最后，来自世界最大的重工业，三重公司，的格言：
"总有一个比你更忙的人，现在正在做运动。"
