At the recent New Year greeting party of "Hot and Spicy", when asked by the host how to find a better self, Jia Ling said: "No matter you are fat or thin, 42 or 24, It doesn't matter! Our lives are really too precious. Only this time, don't pay attention to those messy things. Only you are the protagonist of your life."
Jia Ling's heartfelt words here just brought the audience to tears. With eyes filled with tears, actress Yang Mi's father in the audience praised Jia Ling for working hard to make this movie.
These words made Jia Ling's eyes wet.
Subsequently, the topic "Yang Mi's father and Jia Ling are working hard to take a hot photo" also quickly became a hot search topic.
Since its release on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the popularity of "Hot and Spicy" has remained high. Jia Ling has been on the hot search list many times and everyone is discussing it. And when we say "Hot and Hot," what exactly are we talking about? Are you talking about Jia Lingmei, or are you talking about the movie being made well?
There is no doubt about Jia Ling’s perseverance. What I want to say is that as a director, Jia Ling’s second work is much better than the first one. When the audience’s eyes are fixed on her Le Ying, in fact, at the same time As a screenwriter, she also created a particularly successful character in the film - boxing coach Hao Kun, played by Lei Jiayin.
The role of Haokun was handled very interestingly by Jia Ling. This person's behavior and language are always divided into two levels: outer and inner, fake on the outside and true on the inside. You can call him a scumbag at the outermost level. He is also a scumbag and is very passive. On the surface, he was forced by the manager to let Le Ying apply for the card, but this level is fake.
Actually, if you think about it carefully, how could he not know how much salary Le Ying, who works as a waiter in the restaurant next door, can earn in a month? But he still let her apply for a gym card without hesitation, so his relationship with Le Ying was one of exploitation from the beginning, and this inner-level exploitation was true.
This kind of use became more prominent after he got drunk and Le Ying went home. Jia Ling processed the character's language into "internal and external layers". The outer layer was Le Ying, who had low self-esteem the next day. She thought Haokun would run away. , didn’t recognize anything, but she didn’t expect that Haokun said he would pack up his things in his dormitory and move them to her.
This is a vague statement, but the lines are really well written! This made Le Ying think that Haokun had established a romantic relationship with her. So not only did he go to the gym every day to skip classes, but he also made nutritious meals for Hao Kun.
But in fact, the inner layer is this vague and never made it clear that the two are in love, at most they are living together. At this time, the audience will realize that the real purpose of the inner layer is to use it. He moved to Leying's place just because he didn't want to be crowded into the dormitory. There was free food and accommodation here, and there were people taking care of him, so why not?
I’m really not the only one who thinks this way. The following audience member put it particularly well. When his work performance was not good,
was full of dreams. Once there was money to choose from, he would give up on his dreams.
I also think that Jia Ling did a great job as a director in the scene he mentioned. Le Ying fell in love with Hao Kun because he always said, "Everyone has to fight for their dreams once and win once." she.
In the end, it was Hao Kun who was the first to sell his dream at a low price. He performed fake punches for money, and then when others asked about Le Ying, he immediately denied that she was not his girlfriend, but just a student. Director
finally took off Hao Kun's mask at this moment. He simply felt that Le Ying was not worthy of him, and he was just enjoying Le Ying for free because he liked his efforts. This action also completely tore Le Ying's closed heart to pieces, pushing the protagonist into the abyss and advancing the development of the story, causing the protagonist's heart to first collapse and then be reshaped. This is how Le Ying in the play and Jia Ling in real life began to lose weight and gain muscle for this role.
Therefore, Jia Ling, as an actress, lost weight and gained muscle for this role. She had a huge transformation that was quite explosive. But using the role of Hao Kun to destroy Le Ying, enter the dark night of the soul, and survive after death, is Jia Ling. An important step for Ling to become a mature director!
Moreover, the character Hao Kun is not only very realistic, but also very complete. After Le Ying lost weight, he still confidently went on a date with her. There are two layers here: the inner and outer. The outer layer causes many people to misunderstand that Hao Kun is the prodigal son who has turned back and fell in love with Le Ying, and everyone is happy. But actually, inside, Hao Kun mostly thought that Le Ying was boxing because of him. Now Leying's image is worthy of her.
Of course, the director used two-layer techniques from beginning to end. As this viewer said, the character Hao Kun was not shot "badly".
But it was very "real". When he saw Le Ying, he turned around and ran away, a bit like he couldn't bear to lose face. But there are still two levels here. One is that he is ashamed of Le Ying, and the other is that he is moving bricks at the construction site. , afraid of embarrassing myself. In short, Jia Ling did not deliberately portray this character in a disgusting way, but she did not understand the need for him. I have to say, this is awesome control.
Therefore, Jia Ling controlled the role of Hao Kun very well as the opposite of Le Ying. He went from being a boxing coach with dreams to moving bricks after being knocked down by reality. The other one was just the opposite. After being knocked down by family, friendship, and love frequently, he stood up every time until he finished three rounds of boxing matches and completely dominated his life.
If you haven’t seen the movie, you must go see it. Friends who have seen it should go again. Don’t pay too much attention to the heroine Le Ying. You should appreciate the character Haokun from the perspective of Jia Ling as the director. , you will find that Jia Ling, in addition to the explosive transformation of , her director's skills are also amazing!
