2024 At the beginning of the new year, Jia Ling has faced a severe test in her career, which can even be called the "darkest moment."

The consequences of exposure of this photo are quite serious. On the one hand, Jia Ling's nearly eight months of hard work almost came to nothing.

Looking back, has Jia Ling, who has always been high-profile and liked to participate in various variety shows, not heard from for almost a year? During this time, she devoted herself almost entirely to the creation of new films, and did not appear in the public eye, deliberately "hiding" her current situation. Her last public appearance was a group photo sent by Zhang Xiaofei on her birthday on April 29 last year. The new movie "Hot and Spicy" will start shooting at the end of 2022. By the end of April last year, more than half of the filming had been completed. In the photos, Jia Ling's figure has become much slimmer. It seems that she has lost weight significantly and her face has become smaller.

After that, Jia Ling never had any recent photos exposed, nor did she appear in the public eye. Not to mention that it was very difficult for her to be careful not to be taken by the media and paparazzi for seven or eight months. Not recording programs or doing business for such a long time has caused considerable economic losses. The purpose of this is to maintain a sense of mystery. "Hot" is scheduled to be released on February 10. Originally, Jia Ling only had to persist for one more month to "come out".

On the other hand, the leakage of this photo caused at least over 100 million losses.

Jia Ling is ambitious. "Hello, Li Huanying" in 2021 ranked third on the box office list with a box office of 5.413 billion. This not only brought extremely high commercial value to Jia Ling, making her a target of capital pursuit, so in 2022, she launched "Hot" while the iron is hot. "Hot" project is led by Xinli; at the same time, Jia Ling must also be under unprecedented pressure. After all, as a director again, if the box office gap between "Hello, Li Huanying" and "Hello, Li Huanying" is too big, she will lose face.

So she resorted to two special moves. One was the choice of theme. "Hot and Spicy" was a remake of the Japanese classic movie "100-yen Love". The original version of Saito Kazuko played by Sakura Ando had a conflict with her sister and ran away from home. Working as a cashier at Baiyuan Supermarket, by chance, she got together with a boxer and started learning boxing, eager to gain recognition from the outside world.

If we follow the original story line and character relationships, then Le Ying played by Jia Ling in "Hot" should correspond to Saito Kazuko from Sakura Ando. There are many successful cases of remakes of classic works. The "This Killer Is Not Calm" and "Manslaughter" series were both successful, and "Hot and Furious" also has hope.

Another sure-fire trick is the goal of losing 100 pounds. If Le Ying played by Jia Ling corresponds to Ichiko Saito, then it is not difficult to guess the character line, from the initial self-destruction (very fat) to the later work hard to learn boxing (exercise to lose weight), the weight and condition of the character There must have been earth-shaking changes, so weight loss is necessary and reasonable.

In order to cooperate with Jia Ling's weight loss, "Hot and Spicy" stopped filming after filming the scene where Jia Ling was fat and waited for Jia Ling to lose weight. In June last year, photographer Liu Yin revealed in a news interview that part of the filming of the movie had been completed and it was entering a rest period, waiting for director Jia Ling to complete a weight loss plan of nearly 100 pounds.

During the interview, the host expressed disbelief and confirmed with Liu Yin, who gave an affirmative answer, "Yes, this is very difficult."

The most important time after that was in September last year, when two people and I A friend went from Shenzhen to Dongguan to watch "Oppenheimer" (because Dongguan has the largest IMAX screen in the Pearl River Delta). After watching the movie, she had dinner with friends from the local film industry. She revealed that she was helping the crew of "Hot and Furious" contact the location. Jia Ling will go to Dongguan in September to reshoot the remaining scenes after losing weight.

So even if you count from June when Liu Yin revealed the rest period, to September, at least 3 months have been left for Jia Ling to lose weight. It is too difficult to lose 100 pounds, because it will be easy to lose weight suddenly in a short period of time. Entering the "platform period", it is difficult to continue to lose weight quickly. It is unimaginable what kind of cruel test Jia Ling has experienced during this period.

Looking back at the stills of Jia Ling after losing weight, you will find that she has indeed achieved it. She has almost lost weight from her previous big round face to her current oval face. Jia Ling has kept a low profile and has not exposed her current image. She must be waiting for the movie to be released. , as an "explosive" topic, to promote the movie. Currently, "Hot and Spicy" is scheduled to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year on February 10. Like "Hello, Li Huanying", it will rush into the Spring Festival. It must be at least 30 or 40 years old. A box office of over 100 million. However, the accidental exposure of the stills this time will undoubtedly disrupt the film's marketing plan, which is equivalent to destroying the most valuable marketing topic. A loss of over 100 million is a very conservative statement.
