Hsu Hung-chi or Xu Hongji (#simplifiedChinese: 许鸿基; #traditionalChinese: 許鴻基; #pinyin: Xǔ Hóngjī) (1934–1984) was a Taiwanese #martialArtist who specialized in the #Neijia of #xingyiquan, #baguazhang and #taijiquan. Hsu was born in Taihoku, #TaihokuPrefecture, in 1934 to a family of six brothers. In school, he was very athletic and participated in swimming, soccer and #judo. He began his study of #ShaolinKungFu with his father at an early age. He also learned boxing.
