Jia Ling's second film "Hot and Spicy", which she directed and starred in, had a box office of over 300 million on the first day, with a predicted box office of 2.8 billion.
This time, Jia Ling, who lost 100 pounds, made the right bet again.
Do you still remember Jia Ling’s heroic words after the hit "Hello, Li Huanying"?
She said: "The movie box office exceeded 3 billion, and I became as thin as a piece of lightning."
"Hello, Li Huanying" was very powerful, and finally won a box office record of 5.4 billion.
Jia Ling suddenly became the number one female director with the highest box office in the industry.
At that time, she applied to the audience: "Can you give me a little more time to lose weight to 'Lightning'? About 10 years."
The audience was tolerant of this cute girl who was "fat as a ball" and said they were willing to wait. she.
But in just one year, she first gained 40 pounds and then lost 100 pounds, and became "that lightning" to meet the audience.
It turns out that she always remembers what she promised!
01
At 9 a.m. on February 10, 2024, Jia Ling posted a poster on social platforms with the text: "Everything comes in time, remember to love yourself."
Jia Ling in the poster is her first appearance after losing 100 pounds. Shock the audience!
For a time, netizens exploded with comments.
"Isn't this really AI face-changing?"
"No more words to say, Jia Ling, awesome!"
"The first sigh in the Year of the Dragon!"
"I failed to lose weight, but I saw her succeed. , it’s still amazing!”
But as far as Jia Ling is concerned, “Hot and Spicy” is really not a story about weight loss, she is telling a story about “finding yourself and loving yourself”.
Jia Ling is fat in reality, but she is so cute and fat that she feels happy.
In order to be different from the fat Le Ying in the movie, Jia Ling forcibly gained another 40 pounds, leaving the 210 pounds Le Ying without joy, only greasy and decadent!
Leying worked for a while after graduating from college, but she was extremely unfit for society and completely ruined herself after that.
One person, one house, and one sofa, this became everything to her. She had no job and no social life. She stayed at home and ate and slept, and she seemed decadent to the point of decay.
Le Ying has never thought about changing. She feels that her life is very comfortable, but as everyone knows, such mourning will only make the people she loves stay away from her, and those who love her will be angry.
After another conflict with her sister and even a fight, Le Ying made up her mind to change herself.
By chance, she saw boxing and quickly fell in love with it. She wanted to become a boxer.
The gears of fate began to turn. She went through difficulties and got rid of depression and became a boxer with strong muscles.
In this transformation, she went from being timid and uneasy, muddling along, to a dream chaser with increasingly determined eyes.
Audiences who have already watched the movie said that they went to the movie because they liked Jia Ling. However, when the movie got to the end, they burst into tears while laughing.
This is like an inspirational film, but it seems to talk too much about emotions. It is said to be an emotional film, but it seems to be centered around inspiration.
Jia Ling combines the two very well, hoping to achieve the theme of "finding yourself and loving yourself".
But one topic that it can't escape from is "weight loss".
Lei Jiayin's "Who are you" and Sha Yi's "Isn't it less depressing?", just 8 words, express Jia Ling's contribution to this movie.
Success is never achieved overnight, but rather accumulated over time.
Just like Jia Ling, she has overcome obstacles along the way.
02
Jia Ling was born in a very ordinary family. If she really wants to say who is her noble person, her sister Jia Dan must be doing her part.
Sister Jia Dan gave up her studies for Jia Ling to study, especially at Jia Ling University. After their mother passed away, the two sisters became even more dependent on each other.
Seeing her sister's hard work, Jia Ling secretly determined to get ahead, but the reality is cruel.
She tried many different forms of artistic presentation, but none of them stirred up snowflakes. For art students, there is no income without grades, so Jia Ling was so hungry that she had no food to eat.
At this time, Jia Ling met the second noble person - the famous cross talk actor Feng Gong.
Feng Gong not only taught Jia Ling and solved her doubts, but also provided her with daily care.
In order to improve Jia Ling's living conditions, Feng Gong took her around to perform. If it was for charity, Feng Gong would pay Jia Ling's performance fees out of his own pocket.
In this way, with the help of her master Feng Gong, Jia Ling got the opportunity to attend the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
She was recognized for her talent. After that, she got more opportunities to perform, and her life also improved.
What really made Jia Ling break out of the entertainment industry was when she participated in "The Variety Show". In this show, Jia Ling needed to act ugly to achieve the performance effect.
's funny character and artificial performance made the audience laugh out loud.
But after the master Feng Gong saw it, he was worried. He said: "Do you know that girls who act ugly like this will never get married in the future?"
Jia Ling did not refute the master's evaluation, but said:
"Master, that girl doesn't like pretty things, and it's awkward for me to wear them, but when I see the happy audience, I don't have any complaints."
In this regard, Master Feng Gong couldn't say anything. After all, , the hardships of being a performer, only those who have actually done it can understand how difficult it is.
At this point, Jia Ling is getting further and further away from being ugly, and her body is getting bigger and bigger. When the audience talks about Jia Ling, they only remember her fat body, round face, and a pair of dimples when she smiles. .
A person's work depends on his IQ, but how far a person can go depends on his emotional intelligence.
In terms of being ugly, Jia Ling is undoubtedly successful. She has won the love of the audience, has her own studio, and signed contracts with artists.
And with her lovable personality and high emotional intelligence that adapts to situations, she has become popular both inside and outside the industry.
In order to make the studio famous as soon as possible, Jia Ling took her artists to participate in the show "Comedy Story".
In this program, participating teams are required to independently create an original sketch.
After much thought and consideration, Jia Ling incorporated her mother Li Huanying into the sketch.
In this original sketch, Jia Ling put all her regrets and longing for her mother into the sketch.
makes people cry after watching it, but time is limited for sketches after all.
Jia Ling still had a lot to say, so when the time came, Jia Ling's first film as a director was a mother-themed movie - "Hello, Li Huanying".
Jia Ling is out of the circle again!
03
After the sketch "Hello, Li Huanying" achieved great success, Jia Ling has always had the idea of making it into a movie. After all, her feelings for her mother cannot be completed in just a few minutes of sketch. In the
sketch "Hello, Li Huanying", Jia Ling made a tolerant response through the memories of her mother and through her own regrets and remorse;
after moving to the movie, her daughter's self-righteous compensation and self-righteous contribution , in front of mother's love, it is really not worth mentioning, because mother always sacrifices the greater person.
The sudden death of her mother has always been a pain in Jia Ling's heart. She didn't let her mother see her becoming successful one day, so she seemed to be only worried.
still remember Jia Ling’s monologue at the end of the sketch.
"Mom, I bought you a refrigerator with double doors;
Mom, I also changed that green leather coat for you. It will look good on you;
Mom, I am a comedian now and many people like it. Me."
"Mom, I miss you so much..."
Every monologue is like a cry, telling one's own regrets and regrets, and every "I know" also tells the mother's infinite tolerance. .
It is said that on the night after the skit was performed, Jia Ling called her father and asked how the skit went.
At that time, my father jokingly said: "The actor who played me is too fat."
But at night, my father hugged my mother's portrait and cried the whole night.
As for Li Huanying and Jia Ling in the movie, they did not elevate or beautify the image of her mother. She is just an ordinary middle-aged woman.
As for her mother’s scene in the factory when she was young, Jia Ling learned about it bit by bit from other workers or people who knew her mother.
In order to make up for her regrets, after traveling back in time, Jia Ling had a very humble thought, "Even if it makes her mother happy only once."
She grabs TV for her mother, creates opportunities for her mother to fall in love, plays volleyball with her mother, and so on.
Everything is just to make my mother "happy".
Even if she has already filmed sketches, when filming the movie version, Jia Ling will still break down emotionally because of the memory of her mother.
This movie about mother-daughter love is Jia Ling's directorial debut. There will undoubtedly be traces of the sketch, such as the accumulation of jokes. From a professional perspective, the film's narrative is even more immature.
But it can be passed, mainly because of love, not only about love, but also about truth.
With such truth and love, Jia Ling thought at the beginning of the filming that although she was photographing her own mother, she was also dedicated to the mothers of all viewers.
If possible, she hopes that the audience will want to go home after watching the movie. In
sketches and movies, the theme of the story has not changed, but more rich character settings and details make the story more rational.
Some of the suspense in the sketch are also answered in the movie.
Whether it is a sketch or a movie, Jia Ling cried through the performance of "Hello, Li Huanying" of the same name.
But it is precisely this sincerity that has become her winning formula. While
is directing and acting, Jia Ling is also growing. She has to communicate with various departments and coordinate everyone's work. She also has to play the leading role and maintain her emotions and status at all times.
However, Jia Ling did it and handed over an eye-catching report card.
Now, three years later, Jia Ling has once again entered the audience's field of vision with her second film directed and starred in.
She said: "The magic weapon I use is still sincerity."
This new "Hot and Spicy", because of Jia Ling, was started five times, spanning the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and finally met the audience.
During the filming of the movie, it was always said that Jia Ling lost 100 pounds, but in order not to disturb the surprise brought by the movie, Jia Ling did not show up to explain.
It wasn't until the movie was released on February 10 that her strong and beautiful muscles were revealed. A poster was released that fully showed her perseverance.
In an exclusive interview with Jia Ling that was broadcast recently, Jia Ling revealed that the ending of this movie touched her.
You can't always succeed in life, but as long as you try your best, you will have won.
Just like when she was filming "Hello, Li Huanying", it seems now that she was too immature at the time, but that was 100% what she could express at the time.
As Jia Ling said, movies are a carrier. The charm of movies that moves her most is that in movies, you can completely integrate into this person's life, feel his joys and sorrows, and feel the heart of the character.
It is through this feeling that Jia Ling has been looking for love and truth.
With the endorsement of "Hello, Li Huanying", Jia Ling's "Hot and Spicy" became a hit once it was released. Of course, in addition to the work itself, what the audience is more willing to support is Jia Ling's transformation.
But the evaluation after watching the movie is that Jia Ling never disappoints!
Yes, Jia Ling's achievements are far from this. According to relevant reports, "Hello, Li Huanying" will be remade in Hollywood, with Jia Ling serving as the producer.
The movie "Hot" was also officially announced by Sony Pictures and has purchased its global distribution rights.
If you ask, what can you gain after watching "Hot and Spicy"?
Jia Ling’s biggest hope is that after watching the movie, the audience can start to do the things they want to do but have never done.
Two movies directed and starred by Jia Ling have been released. At present, "Hot and Spicy" continues to be popular, and its performance will most likely not be bad.
She revealed that she is currently preparing a new movie about pyramid schemes.
Jia Ling has always been a person who talks more than she does more. Her progress and changes are obvious to all.
I hope that fat Jia Ling will take care of her! Thin Jia Ling, come on!
