On March 22, a topic "Jia Ling's photo was typed between two pages of the magazine" aroused heated discussion among netizens. Many people defended Jia Ling and believed that she was deliberately targeted.
The cause of the incident was that some netizens discovered that when a magazine was taking stock of outstanding Chinese directors, it placed the photo of the female director Jia Ling in the gap between the two pages, resulting in a poor look and feel.
The photos of other directors on the list, such as Wu Jing, Stephen Chow, Tsui Hark, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Ning Hao, etc., are displayed very well and look very aura. On the other hand, Jia Ling's photos have a "caught in the cracks" "survival" feeling.
Many netizens expressed dissatisfaction with this, thinking that the magazine was deliberately targeting Jia Ling:
"It must be intentional. Professional graphic editors don't even have this bit of common sense about typesetting." "There are so many on the other side." The male director was not sewn in, so it is too obvious to target Jia Ling, a female director." "It is not difficult for the magazine to move a position for Jia Ling, but they just let her not be seen."
Some netizens commented This matter is considered to be the magazine's "discrimination against women." Some people even bluntly said, "Looking at Jia Ling's position in the magazine, it feels like the current situation of Chinese women, surviving, growing, and self-improvement in the cracks."
But there are also some Netizens thought that some people were making a fuss out of a molehill, saying, "It doesn't look like it's intentional, it feels more like the layout is not arranged properly, and Jia Ling happens to be in that position. There is no seam, so it's the C position."
Others He joked, "The meaning of the picture is to tell us that Jia Ling has really lost weight." Some netizens even said, "With Jia Ling's qualifications, being able to appear on the same page as Zhang Yimou and Stephen Chow is already a blessing for her." It’s a great honor.” “In terms of fame and strength, who can she compare to these people? She just rose up in the past few years, so be content.”
In fact, this kind of situation is not necessarily targeted, and there is no need to rise to the level of At a certain height, there is a high probability that the work is not serious and mistakes are made, but it does give people a feeling of disrespect for others. After all, as netizens said, the photos are all posted, and there is no space for layout next to them to make people appear. It really shouldn't be between books.
As a well-known magazine, when such a problem arises, it should reflect carefully. No matter whose photo it is, it is inappropriate to put it there.
It is reported that Jia Ling is an actress and director from Mainland China. Her films "Hello, Li Huanying" and "Hot and Spicy" have achieved good box office results.
Especially "Hello, Li Huanying", Sony Pictures bought the copyright for a remake. Jia Ling recently appeared in Hollywood as the producer of the American version of "Hello, Li Huanying" and took a photo with Daniel Wu.
After the latter "Hot" was released in more than 200 theaters in North America, the total box office in ten days exceeded US$1.5 million, and it has now exceeded US$1.6 million.
