The strong martial arts atmosphere in his family instilled in him a deep affection for Chinese-style wrestling.

From the age of 14 or 15, he began to study the techniques under two masters.

"I was in high school at the time. Every day after school, I rode a bicycle to a place 8 or 9 kilometers away to learn wrestling, putting in three years of hard work," Bai reminisces about his glorious days.

Later, his excellent wrestling skills led to his enrollment into a professional wrestling team of Hebei.

After retiring, he returned to his hometown to do business but could never let go of his dream of passing on the wrestling skills. Bai conveyed a strong desire to promote and pass down Chinese-style wrestling.

"Since the late Qing Dynasty, Baoding Fast Wrestling had enjoyed great fame nationwide for a long time. It was unbeatable across the country once," Bai says proudly.
