Since its release on the first day of the Lunar New Year, up to now, the box office of "Hot and Hot" has exceeded 3.2 billion, with a Douban score of 79, it can be said that it has gained fame and fortune, and it has firmly won the first place in the New Year of the Dragon film.
As the film's director and star Jia Ling said: ""Hot and Hot" is not a movie about **, or even a movie about boxing, but a story about a kind person who learns to love himself, be brave and persist for his dreams." Loving yourself is not only the spiritual core of this movie, but also the key word that opens up each of our lives.
Love yourself. Listen to your inner voice.
Du Leying, the protagonist in the movie, has stayed at home since she graduated, and has been lying flat for 10 years by "gnawing the old". Because of gnawing at old age, her self-esteem has also been decreasing, and she has gradually developed a pleasing personality. "If I have two apples and my friend wants to eat them, I will give them both. It was precisely because of the lack of self that she lost her house, love, and finally even her dignity was squeezed clean by her cousin in a TV show.
Practicing boxing allowed Le Ying to hear her inner voice in despair - "win once". It was a moment of self-awakening, and from then on, she began to regain her focus on herself and live for herself. The harsh training and competitions did not break her, but allowed her to bloom with fiery vitality and regain her long-lost self-confidence. When her ex-boyfriend asked to get back together, she straightened her waist and replied indifferently: "It depends on the mood." By this time, she already knew what she wanted.
Many kind-hearted people, like Le Ying, are accustomed to putting the needs of others before their own, and this "other" can be a spouse, children, parents, boss, ......After a long time, forbearance and repression have become commonplace, and the person concerned has gradually forgotten his true desire. It is very sad to live alone, but not to be yourself. In the dead of night, ask yourself, what do you want most? Then, let it go. As the saying goes, when you start loving yourself, the whole world will come to love you.
Love yourself. Learn to take care of your body.
Those who love themselves know that physical health is the most important thing. The human will and body are often mutually causal beings. When Le Ying fell into a mental state of decadence and self-abandonment, her chubby figure was also an externalized symbol of powerlessness; In turn, when her body was exercised, she transformed from a clumsy body into a god of war, which also injected strength into her spirit and achieved the most burning highlight of the movie.
Many people's self-discipline and self-love start with body management – including regular diet and habitual exercise. Haruki Murakami, a famous writer, maintains the habit of running 10 kilometers a day; He once said, "The body is the temple of the soul, and whatever is enshrined there, it should remain strong, beautiful, and clean." “
Of course, a person is free to choose how fat and thin he is, as long as he is in a healthy state. However, I believe that the vast majority of people are still happy with their energetic bodies when they are running and jumping flexibly! Not everyone has the strength to challenge a "blast change" like Le Ying, but anyone can start from the simplest "keep your mouth shut and open your legs", and over time, you will see that your body is undergoing beautiful changes.
Love yourself. Make a real effort for your dreams.
Le Ying in the movie is a "ruthless person", who has changed her life all the way against the sky and is radiant; In fact, everyone who loves themselves can be "ruthless" to themselves. This "ruthless" does not mean that you are masochistic, but to go all out for your dreams and leave no regrets.
Do you remember why the boxing match attracted Le Ying in the first place? "The two of them fought so fiercely on the stage, and when the game was over, they could still hug each other. Le Ying's dream is to become a person who is taken seriously by others. In the past, she could be described as "harmless to humans and animals", but she was constantly deprived and belittled in life. This world is not a fairytale castle, and sometimes, you just need to sweat and throw a punch full of strength to earn everyone's respect.
While most people don't have a boxing match in their lives, who hasn't had an important moment in the making? Whether it is an exam, a change of job, a marriage, or a divorce, every change we make up our minds needs us to ignite ourselves to work hard in order to win back the initiative in life. Who can give you strength in the process? Take a look in the mirror and you'll have the answer. The most trustworthy and worthy of praise is yourself.
Love yourself. Live as a light and let the world shine together.
After talking about Le Ying in the movie, let's talk about Jia Ling outside the movie.
Before the release of "Hot and Hot", the news of "Jia Ling successfully lost 100 pounds" was on the hot search for several days, some people guessed that it was the special effects of the movie, and some people guessed that the slimmed down Jia Ling was played by Zhang Xiaofei. When the mystery was finally revealed, people were amazed by a fit Jia Ling with murderous eyes. This comedian, who used to make everyone laugh, now uses her muscles to declare her perseverance: We women will definitely be able to do what they want.
As a national star in the comedy industry, Jia Ling can lie in her comfort zone, go on variety shows, act in sketches, and her fame and income are not a problem. The chubby figure is a "festive" image that the public loves. But her ambition is obviously beyond people's imagination, and in 2021, a "Hello, Li Huanying" won the first place at the annual box office; In this year's "Hot and Hot", she used her real physical changes to brighten the audience's eyes.
Jia Ling's transformation is the process of loving herself. No matter how much others like that mellow past, she clearly knows that she wants an angular self more, with big waves, evening dresses, standing on the beach and shining. Her new identity is also undoubtedly engraved into people's minds: director Jia Ling.
Jia Ling said: "If I can decide for myself, it is that I want to love myself in the future, this is the hot search I want to be on the most." "In a sense, director Jia Ling has achieved the highest level of loving herself, which is altruism. She not only uses her own works, but also uses her own changes to set off a huge wave of flow and inspire more people to pursue a better life together.
Hot and Hot also has an English title called "Yolo", which is an abbreviation for "You Only Live Once". We only have one life, only by loving ourselves can we release all our energy, and only by loving ourselves can we fall in love with the world and life.
I wish each of us a full life of life.
