He's right that young people are not interested in classical Kungfu except for watching it in movies. For the young generation, especially in the mainland, all Kung Fu is like folk music or folk dance, something old people like to do.
In HK, the situation is a bit different. They have no pensions, they never retire, everyone work until they die. So some old people teach kung fu to earn a living or to make an extra income. So many youngsters go and study for a relative like a grandfather or an uncle, in the beginning often mainly to help out.
...Or to gain a skill they can use to earn money when they get old...
(HK people live longer than anywhere else, so they really prove that working is a healthy thing to do and to retire something unhealthy in old age...
