After the word-of-mouth of "Hot and Hot" counterattacked and rose, becoming the first film to break the box office of 1 billion during the Spring Festival, no matter how the follow-up operation of the movie in the same schedule, the influence is no longer great.
Jia Ling in 2024 is alone again, and the champion of "Hot and Hot" has become the champion!
In fact, during the pre-sale box office, although Jia Ling had the ** work of "Hello, Li Huanying", in the eyes of many people, that movie was more of a fluke, and she was not very optimistic about the "Hot and Hot" she launched this year.
Especially coupled with the fact that the early film marketing is very restrained, few people think that Jia Ling can get another dark horse film in the Spring Festival in 2024.
But the facts are there, "Hot and Hot" is not a popular IP and popular theme, and there was no deliberate promotion of the supporting roles in the early stage.
In addition to "Jia Ling lost 100 pounds", "Hot and Hot" was almost not announced in the early stage, but it was such a small-scale movie that it won again, why?
Due to the good "confidentiality work" in the early stage, the audience only discovered that the actors in this movie were the real "acquaintances" when "Hot and Hot" arrived at the feature film.
Zhang Xiaofei plays Jia Ling's sister Du Ledan, in fact, I'm not surprised, they are indeed sisters in private, and she is not in Jia Ling's movie at this stage, so I have to make a fuss.
But I didn't expect that this sister Du Ledan was very inauthentic, and divorced after cheating on her husband and giving birth to someone else's child.
This doesn't stop, in order to go to school for her daughter, she fell in love with Le Ying's house and wanted her sister to transfer it to her, but her sister didn't agree to her and directly made a ruthless move, pushing the fat Du Leying down and falling to the ground, leaving no room at all, her heart and hands are very black!
If Zhang Xiaofei's appearance is a matter of course, then Li Xueqin's cameo appearance in "Hot and Hot" as the best friend Xiao San who prying Leying's corner made me stunned.
Xueqin, don't you often say that you don't even have a love life?
Why did you let go in "Hot and Hot", robbed the boyfriend of your best friend for more than ten years, and finally shamelessly asked her to be your bridesmaid, you shouldn't have thought that with your "qualifications" you could be such a hated junior.
Then there is the national daughter Yang Zi, she is a proper heroine in the play, and she has changed when she enters the set of "Hot and Hot".
seems to be an innocent cousin, but she is always calculating, Le Ying cried and sought death in the first half, and backstabbing her cousin was the last straw that crushed her.
There is also Lei Jiayin, the male protagonist of this drama, who is cowardly and dangling, fortunately, this movie does not engage in any set of male and female protagonists spending a full moon, and the rejection of the scumbag is one of the most glorious episodes of "Hot and Hot".
In addition to the above, there are also boyfriend Qiao Shan, who betrayed Le Ying, and judges Ma Li and Wei Xiang, who were full of malice. Although there are not many cameo actors, almost all of them have broken the circle in terms of roles, and almost all the villains are set up, which is too emotional to watch.
The solid story and unique shooting technique are also one of the reasons for the success of "Hot and Hot".
Before I watched the feature film, I knew that "Hot and Hot" was a story with the theme of weight loss and boxing, and I thought it was "poisonous chicken soup" I didn't think so, after all, the most important thing in domestic films is inspirational content.
After watching the whole film, I realized that this is a truly tragic down-to-earth heroine story, and Jia Ling's story rhythm is very well controlled.
Under normal circumstances, in order to have a sense of ups and downs in film and television drama stories, if they are not suppressed first and then raised, or if they are not suppressed and raised first, almost all of them are this routine, but "Hot and Hot" is very good at breaking the pattern, solving the causal relationship with great weight, and making the story very good.
First of all, the heroine's character design, fat, lazy, gnawing old, at the beginning there are almost no character advantages that can be used, conventionally speaking, such a character is an inspirational character in the end, otherwise the meaning of the heroine's existence will be lost.
But the character of Du Leying suffered a series of unfair treatment in the early stage, and was also very inspirational in the later stage, but in the end, the boxing match was not won, and the cohabiting scumbag boyfriend did not spend the full moon.
The heroine's life on the bright side does not seem to have changed, what has changed is only the inner atmosphere of Du Leying.
The cause and effect of other supporting roles is also the same operation, Du Ledan, who has been targeting his sister, although he did not agree with his sister's boxing in the end, he did not be sarcastic, but just looked at the heroine with different eyes.
The cohabiting scum boyfriend didn't chase his wife to the crematorium, he felt it in his heart, but his personality was still very cowardly, and the heroine wanted to date again after she came out, and after the heroine refused the date invitation, she just laughed at herself and didn't do anything again.
All of us behave in a very natural and restrained way, just like our normal lives.
At the same time, the movie will focus on the ending of each of the heroine Du Leying's small stories in the second half of the film, and we know that she signed a power of attorney for her sister; made a bridesmaid for her girlfriends; Met the various performance arrangements of the backstabbing cousin; also got out of his life as the scum boyfriend yelled out.
This kind of collective response can strongly guide the audience's emotions and tell an extremely ordinary fireworks story with passion.
Just like the night when Du Leying was looking for death, it was stormy outside, she dragged her steps to the top floor of the apartment building step by step, and there was no extra movement when she entered the room.
We can only see the otherwise calm curtains fluttering violently, and finally we know that on such a night, Du Leying once committed suicide by jumping off a building, and was reborn when the sun rose.
After watching the movie "Hot and Hot", who can say that Jia Ling can't make movies? I only hope that there will be more directors like Jia Ling in the film and television industry who don't watch routines and have their own ideas.
With Jia Ling's previous achievements, she can lie flat completely, and what is more difficult than **100 pounds is that her courage to jump out of her comfort zone is really admirable.
If the success of "Hello, Li Huanying" still has a bit of luck, then Jia Ling of "Hot and Hot" has completely proved to the world that her success is not a fluke.
