Wing Chun Grandmaster Leung Jan's eldest son, Leung Bik, a legendary Wing Chun master, which is also Grandmaster Chan Wah Shun's Si Heng/Kungfu elder Brother. Leung Bik is the drug store owner  who taught Ip Man additional Wing Chun techniques in Hong Kong.

While living in Fushan, Leung Jan taught Chan Wah Shun, Wu Chung Sok, and Leung Bik. Some accounts claim Bik was Jan’s son. However, there is mounting evidence to suggest this is not the case. Accounts range of Jan having anywhere from one to five sons. The currently accepted belief is that Leung Jan had only one son, Leung Chun, who was sickly and died young. However, this does not make the name or the student Leung Bik fictitious. The surname Leung is common, as already seen in this short history. As people attempt to interpret records against oral stories it is easy to imagine someone would assume, seeing two identical last names, one might be a parent teaching a child.

Leung Jan’s primary Fushan students taught Yip Man. Yip Man was Chan Wah Shun’s last student. At Chan Wah Shun’s passing, Yip Man began training under Wu Chung Sok and Leung Bik.
