The movie "Hot and Spicy" unsurprisingly became the winner of the Spring Festival. Jia Ling once again brought a hit movie to the theaters and became a leading figure among domestic female directors. The audience is also looking forward to Jia Ling's next film and television drama trends.
Some people speculate that Jia Ling will tailor a movie for Zhang Xiaofei. Some people expect Jia Ling to become an iconic benchmark for leading social-themed movies to fully open up the box office market.
But the audience did not expect that Jia Ling’s new trend was to develop abroad.
Recently, Jia Ling left for overseas. This time she will serve as the producer of the American version of "Hello, Li Huanying" and participate in the creation of the remake of the movie.
Not only that, the movie "Hot and Spicy" has been released overseas. Jia Ling also participated in offline activities as a director and revealed her plans for the third movie.
The movie "Hello, Li Huanying" became a big hit in China. Although it caused some strange noises after taking over the box office, there is no doubt about the commercial success of the movie. It is normal for the copyright of the movie to be sold abroad, but Jia Ling can become the star of the movie. The producer surprised everyone.
This time she went overseas, and Jia Ling also took photos with male stars such as Daniel Wu and Kao Shengyuan in the United States. After the photos were leaked, there were many opinions, which invisibly made the American version of "Hello, Li Huanying" so popular.
Domestic netizens, especially the female viewers who support Jia Ling, are certainly very proud of Jia Ling's career success, but Jia Ling's health status is really shocking.
In order to complete the transformation of the heroine in "Hot and Spicy", Jia Ling lost 100 pounds in one year. It was not until the movie was released that the audience saw Jia Ling active in the public eye again.
During that time, there were actually a lot of voices about Jia Ling's poor condition, and Jia Ling, whose figure gradually returned to the normal range, did have problems with a tired face and wrinkles.
In the photo with Daniel Wu, both of them seemed to be in good condition, but in the unedited photo sent by Daniel Wu alone, Jia Ling's vicissitudes of life could no longer be concealed.
In the lens, Jia Ling's face is full of wrinkles. When she smiles, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes are especially obvious. The loose skin around her eyes makes her look even older than Daniel Wu. Not only that, Jia Ling's nasolabial folds and iconic pear dimples also make her face less smooth and her age suddenly increases.
In another set of photos, Jia Ling's facial aging is more serious. Jia Ling in the
photo is obviously smiling normally, but the skin on her face is as strange as dehydrated raisins. Except for her forehead, there are no lines, and her face is full of deep and obvious marks.
It is not even an exaggeration to say that Jia Ling's visual age looks older than the white-haired foreign old man next to her. She is not as cute and smart as she was when she was fat.
Of course, Jia Ling is 41 years old, so it is impossible for her not to be old at all. But comparing the status of most female celebrities over 40, you will find that Jia Ling's wrinkle problem is more obvious. A big reason for this is that she has lost too much weight in a short period of time.
Comparing Jia Ling's previous appearance, you will find that although Jia Ling was bloated when she was fat, her skin was very good, and she was white and fat, which made her look more cheerful, especially in comedy movies and variety shows, and she was more approachable.
But now Jia Ling has lost too much weight, and the skin that has been obese for a long time cannot return to a firm and elastic state in a short time. This has caused Jia Ling’s skin, especially her face, where it is difficult to achieve the effect of shaping. There was a lot of excess skin tissue, which formed into various folds when she smiled.
Whether Jia Ling will remain in this state for a long time is hard to say, but what is certain is that Jia Ling who has lost weight is indeed not as lovable as she was when she was fat.
When Jia Ling relaxes naturally and has no big expression, it can also be seen that the skin on her face is sagging obviously, the apple muscles are trending downward, the nasolabial folds are obvious, and the marionette lines at the corners of her mouth have gradually been revealed, making her look very tired. The overall state of the person is not as playful and energetic as when he was fat.
Looking at Jia Ling’s face, it should be easy to find that she is not an actress in the beauty category. It is precisely because of her mediocre facial features and ordinary appearance that she has no baggage in the field of comedy and has made certain achievements. score.
In the past, when Jia Ling was fat, she relied on her flesh to make her cute. But now that Jia Ling has lost weight, her cuteness is gone. The problem with her appearance has also been exposed, and the aging feeling of 40+ cannot be concealed.
However, in terms of emotional intelligence and character charm, Jia Ling is still Jia Ling. Even a year of precipitation and hard work has made Jia Ling a little more free and easy and sober.
Moreover, Jia Ling's weight was indeed not healthy enough before. Obesity puts a lot of pressure on Jia Ling's body, which is unhealthy for both joints and hormones. Now Jia Ling has lost weight through exercise and dieting. Even though her face is not as rosy as when she was fat, she still conveys to the audience that she is very "satisfied" and "enjoyed".
After "Hot and Spicy" ended, Jia Ling said that she would regard weight management as a lifelong career. In the past year, she has used an almost cruel method to demand herself, just to achieve the state required by the character in the movie.
But next, Jia Ling hopes to be empowered through exercise, sharpen her will, and fill her spiritual world with a self-disciplined life.
From this point of view, what if there are more traces of time on the face? As long as Jia Ling enjoys it.
Moreover, although Jia Ling is no longer cute and has no competitiveness in the beauty track, her temperament is really great. Whether she is traveling abroad to share the same frame with famous celebrities or appearing in various domestic interviews, Jia Ling has the temperament of a big shot in the entertainment industry.
Nowadays, she often chooses some neutral and sexy clothes, such as well-tailored casual suits. When she appears, she has the arrogance of buying shares in minutes. Perhaps in the future, in addition to being a director, Jia Ling will also have the opportunity to switch to mainstream feature films. After all, she actually has a wider range of acting styles now than when she was fat.
Of course, in addition to being the producer of the US version of "Hello, Li Huanying", Jia Ling is also preparing for her latest movie. The movie "The Flowers Bloom", which is expected to be released in 2025, will still star Jia Ling and Zhang Xiaofei, with Yang Zi, a 90-year-old flower, participating. This time Jia Ling is ready to challenge a drama crime film and once again break through her comfort zone.
