If you are willing to clarify, what was teacher Hu's full name
and did any of his students obtain his skills?

When GM Chang Tung-Sheng had a head lock on my forehead with leg twist on one of my legs, I felt headache and my leg was crashed by his body weight. I can still do this to my students. But none of my students can do to their students. The reason is simple. The new generation doesn't want to invest training time in ability (Gong) development such as "pole hanging".
One day I was proud to tell GM Chang that I had spent 5 years on "pole hanging". GM Chang then told me that he had spent 10 years on it. I kept my mouth shut and spent 10 more years on it after that.
