In the context of globalization, the external communication of Chinese Wushu needs to apply a “sinicized” language too; moreover, Chinese Wushu should carry out “rediscovery” and “reproduction” on traditions in order to adapt to the new cultural ecological environment, and therefore establish the cultural identity of Chinese Wushu.
