The first hit after the New Year came from Jia Ling. The highlight of
is simple. She lost weight. In less than a year, lost weight from 210 pounds to 117 pounds, with the lowest weight in the middle being 109 pounds.
lost a lot of weight directly like Dilireba.
After Jia Ling's new film "Hot and Spicy" was released, almost all the attention was paid to Jia Ling's weight change. This shocking comparison of
is indeed very impactful.
In addition to the admiration that Jia Ling was able to lose half of her voice, most of the negative reviews of the movie came from the change in Jia Ling's appearance.
Some people think that this film is Jia Ling's self-impression, and it is a documentary about her weight loss.
just wants to use weight loss to add gimmicks to the movie and sell better. Her weight loss = a commercial behavior.
Jia Ling said when the movie was scheduled to be released that the movie has nothing to do with weight loss.
And this character needs to gain 40 pounds first, and then lose 100 pounds.
Her weight change is more for the role of Le Ying.
After watching this film, Yang discovered that "Hot and Spicy" is by no means a film that uses weight loss as a gimmick.
She was able to impress so many viewers because the core of this story revolves around a common dilemma for everyone, , self.
This is not a movie review, because Yang is more concerned with the story of a woman who decides to transform.
The core of the story of "Hot and Spicy"
is not Jia Ling's exclusive transformation plan
"Hot and Spicy" is adapted from Japan's "One Hundred Dollar Love".
tells the story of a woman who does not receive care in her family and has no hope in life. She wants to break her original life through boxing.
As the heroine in the film, Jia Ling continues the name of the previous film "Hello, Li Huanying", Le Ying (pronounced quickly, it is Ling).
At the beginning of the video, Leying was lying on the sofa, fast asleep. She finally moved because the sun was blinding her eyes. She picked up the pillow and switched to another side to continue sleeping.
Her only activity is to go downstairs and ask her mother what she is eating for dinner.
At home, her parents had no choice but to face her staying behind closed doors. When her younger sister saw her being listless every day and gnawing at her old age at home, she half-closed her eyes and looked down on her. The two of them would quarrel at every turn.
Leying's home is very simple. She doesn't adapt to the rhythm of society, so she chooses to take the initiative to escape.
But life is like a boxer whose enthusiasm never diminishes, and he has to chase her.
My sister was arrogant when she wanted a house in her name. Her boyfriend cheated on her and blamed her for the problem. The cheating partner was her best friend of more than ten years. The cousin ignored her own emotions and regarded her as a She chose a topic and conducted an aggressive interview with her on the spot...
Le Ying accepted the injustice of all this, thinking that her family and friends would treat her better because of her efforts.
"If you have two apples, one big and one small, and your friends ask you for it, which one will you give?"
"Give both"
This is Le Ying.
When she finally left home and chose to be independent, she met a man who was attracted to her. She thought she would be in love with him for a long time, and the other man accepted her, but it turned out that it was all in vain.
When she was completely disappointed with the world and even death could not fulfill her wish, at this moment she chose to save herself and no longer entrusted her hope to anyone.
She started practicing boxing. As the seasons changed, what remained unchanged was her pace of boxing practice and her determination to win once.
When the montage clip in the movie comes out, I will be a little confused. At that moment, is she Le Ying or Jia Ling?
There is a very ironic scene in the movie. When Le Ying signed up for a boxing class, she made it clear that she wanted to participate in a boxing match, but the fitness coach still believed that her purpose was to lose weight.
This is also true in the original version of "One Hundred Dollar Love"
and "Keiko, Stare". The heroine's figure is very well-proportioned and not fat, but when she goes to practice boxing, the coach will still subconsciously think that the other party wants to lose weight
This plot is really classic. male coaches believe that women practice boxing with the purpose of improving their own appearance. Even if the other party expresses their true wishes, they are unwilling to admit that women are pursuing their own value.
Sometimes, the reaction after the screening is more exciting than the movie itself.
After watching the movie, some people felt that Jia Ling was still chubby and cute, but now that she has lost weight, she looks a bit old and lacks the joy of the past.
The film takes more than two hours to tell the story of a woman who regained her confidence in life and desperately tried to win once and take back the initiative in life. In the eyes of some viewers,
is a weight-loss transformation plan for a female star with private goods.
No, it was only half a year ago. During the summer vacation, when Fengshen Proton Group was showing off his muscles, why didn’t he see any audience criticizing him for this?
Before the official release of "Hot and Spicy", there were no photos of Jia Ling losing 100 pounds on the entire Internet. This was obviously the biggest gimmick.
Moreover, the essence of movies is commodities. As a director and actor, what if Jia Ling uses this for marketing?
Yang does not want to devote too much space to describing the relatively biased negative reviews of this film, because whether it is Le Ying or Jia Ling, their female power is more worthy of attention.
This is your life
Winning or losing does not need to be defined by others
The most important change in the movie is not her weight, but her decision not to sacrifice herself to please anyone.
"If you have two apples, one big and one small, and your friend asks you what you want, which one do you give?"
"It depends on your mood."
She began to pay attention to her inner feelings. She had no lofty ideals and ambitions, she just wanted to win. once.
What is self-discipline?
It’s not like you have to do a hundred push-ups every day, or get up at six o’clock every day.
Self-discipline is when you set a goal, you will not let other people's rumors shake your determination, and work unswervingly towards the goal at your own pace.
Therefore, when we watch "Hot and Spicy" and see the chubby Jia Ling finally walking to the ring with a body full of tendons, there is no need for too much sensationalism and painful scenes of losing weight.
When the audience sees her clear jawline, they will know how much she suffered and sweated behind her back.
It takes more than a day to freeze three feet, let alone training as a professional boxer.
When Leying was in the stage of transformation, Yang was very happy to have another strong female character in Chinese film history.
Perhaps some little girls were quietly planting a seed in their hearts after seeing such a powerful and tenacious image.

After all, this is not an inspirational movie about weight loss.
In the finale, when Leying appeared in the competition, her muscles were the result of daily training. She had to punch powerfully and become a professional boxer.
In Jia Ling’s words, has not lost weight, but has become stronger.
In the movie, Le Ying was beaten black and blue by the champion player opposite her, but she still persisted and completed the game.
She finally won once, and this time, she didn't need anyone's affirmation, she was fighting for herself.
Off-screen, Jia Ling once again proved her strength to everyone with her works.
After only being released for one day, "Hot and Spicy" already had a box office of 2 billion, making it the current box office champion during the Spring Festival.
The first work of "Hello, Li Huanying" not only earned 5 billion in box office, but was also spotted by Hollywood, which bought the copyright of the film and made Jia Ling its producer.
She first wrote her mother’s story, and then left her own story.
A tearful Easter egg: Le Ying’s clothes during the game said that’s lihuanying’ daughter. This is Li Huanying’s daughter.
Jia Ling used her own strength to provide more female perspectives and roles.
Leying tried her best to stand on the ring. Even though she knew she would lose the game, she had the courage to stand on the field and punch the champion.
Breaking from the outside is pressure, breaking from the inside is growth. What we see through the transformation of Le Ying and Jia Ling is the burst of vitality.
Just like Kitano Takeshi said: Although it is hard, I will still choose that hot life.
In the new year, Sheep wants to send the passionate and courageous words on the poster to all sisters, yolo!
yolo is the acronym for you only live once, which means you can only live once .
Yang doesn't want to say inspirational words that you will succeed as long as you work hard, but wants to encourage sisters to try what they want to do and try their best, even if they fail, it doesn't matter.
Because this is your life, the judge is no one else but yourself.
