After "Hello, Li Huanying", Jia Ling once again entered the Spring Festival with a new movie. She thought she would fail, but no one expected that the box office grew by leaps and bounds, not only exceeding the 1.5 billion box office mark, but also occupying No. 1 on the Spring Festival box office list!
After watching " Hot and Spicy ", Xiaoqi found out why so many viewers paid for this movie, which can be seen from some small details in the movie.
Words printed on clothes to express love
Audiences who have watched the movie wonder if they have noticed such a detail. When Jia Ling appeared on the stage, the words "This is Li Huanying's daughter" were printed on the clothes in English.
As we all know, Jia Ling's mother's name is Li Huanying. Because she missed her mother deeply, Jia Ling had a sketch called "Hello Li Huanying". The sketch was later adapted into a movie and became Jia Ling's debut work.
The "Li Huanying" here is actually not only Jia Ling's mother, but also her first movie. This can be regarded as a small linkage.
Actually, in the subtitles at the end of the film, Jia Ling released her weight loss diary, in which she mentioned that she missed her mother very much.
Perhaps it is these sincerities that allow the audience to see Jia Ling's efforts and her dedication to the film, which is why so many people pay for her.
lost 100 pounds in one year
Since the official announcement of "Hot and Spicy", the most publicity about this movie is that Jia Ling lost 100 pounds in one year.
Only friends who have lost weight know that losing weight is not a simple matter. It requires not only perseverance, but also a lot of self-control.
In fact, after deciding to shoot a new movie, Jia Ling reduced her appearance in the public eye. Not only did she turn down the resident variety show " Ace vs. Ace ", she also reduced her appearance in front of the audience.
Occasionally there are many Reuters topics, all of which are about Jia Ling getting fat again and worrying about her physical condition. But when Jia Ling appeared, the audience saw a completely new transformation of Jia Ling. She lost more than 100 kilograms and her whole person became very different.
I would like to ask, can a director who is determined to lose weight for a year, have no social activities for a year, and concentrate on one thing just for the sake of a movie, not be liked by the audience?
Li Huanying
Friends who have watched "Hello Li Huanying", do you still remember the name of the character Jia Ling played in the movie? In the movie, Zhang Xiaofei asked Jia Ling what her name was, and Jia Ling replied "Li Leying". She was the cousin of Li Huanying's second aunt's family in the provincial capital, and her name was Li Leying.
It is understood that the name Leying is taken from the pinyin of "Ling" in Jia Ling. The name
is also the name of the heroine in "Hot and Spicy". This is "Li Huanying Universe" or "Le Ying Universe". They are both the same protagonist, but they tell different stories.
With the words "Li Huanying's Daughter" on the clothes, it is really linked to "Hello Li Huanying". I really like this feeling of linking with the same series, very good!
Some other small details
In the movie, the barbecue restaurant where the heroine works is called Dawanyule. "Dawanyule" is taken from the name of Jia Ling's company, "Dawan Entertainment". I also want to thank the company. At the same time, in the movie, Jia Ling also brought many actors from Dawan Entertainment.
The title of this movie is "Hot Hot", and its English name is yolo, which is the abbreviation of you only live once, "You can only live once", which is the theme of "Hot Hot".
The last entry in the movie Jia Ling's Weight Loss Diary is also the same. Jia Ling wrote that after the movie was completed, she went to get a big wave, hair extensions, and bought nice clothes. How to be happy in the future? You only live once, right?
This also illustrates the theme of this movie.
From these small details, it can be seen that Jia Ling is full of intentions for "Hot and Spicy". It is no wonder that so many viewers are willing to pay for it.
