Chen Zhen, a popular character portrayed by Bruce Lee in the film "Fist of Fury," is widely believed to be based on Liu Zhensheng (劉振聲), a real-life student of Huo Yuanjia, a renowned Chinese martial artist who lived during the late Qing dynasty. This connection is supported by various sources, including articles from Screen Rant, Den of Geek, and DBpedia, which all mention Liu Zhensheng as the inspiration behind the character of Chen Zhen. Although the storyline of Chen Zhen in the film is fictional, his link to Huo Yuanjia and his student Liu Zhensheng provides a historical context to the character.
