Along the way, Ip Man deals with issues of racism and studies under master Leung Bik to develop a new and improved style of Wing Chun. When Ip Man returns to his home town years later to reunite with his peers, new challenges arise as Ip Man’s old master sees that Ip Man has developed a new style of Wing Chun which differs from the orthodox style. Things get further complicated when Ip Man falls in love with Cheung Wing-shing, the daughter of the vice-mayor of Foshan, leaving Lee Mei-wai, his childhood friend, to struggle with her feelings for Ip Man and accept Tin-chi’s marriage proposal.
