As of the early morning of February 17, the box office of "Hot and Hot" directed by Jia Ling has broken the 2.6 billion mark!
Although Zhang Yimou's "Article 20" and Han Han's "Flying Life 2" have achieved good box office results, they seem to be slightly less popular than "Hot and Hot". With its unique charm, this film has won the love and pursuit of the audience, and has become one of the hottest movies at the moment.
Peng Yuchang and Li Gengxi co-starred in "Let's Shake the Sun Together", under great pressure, made a wise decision and decided to temporarily bid farewell to the stage of the Spring Festival file.
And on the morning of February 17, "Mr. Red Carpet" starring Andy Lau also announced its withdrawal from the Spring Festival file, looking forward to shining more dazzling at a more appropriate time.
The two films chose to leave the Spring Festival file one after another, on the one hand, because it was difficult for them to compete with the hot momentum of "Hot and Hot", and on the other hand, they were also out of consideration of investment risks, fearing that they would end up with no return.
The time and money involved in the production and release of the film is huge, beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Once the response after the release of the film fails to meet expectations, it will be a heavy blow to both investors and theaters, and it can even be said to be bankrupt.
As stated in the statement of "Let's Shake the Sun Together", we couldn't afford to let down all the hard work of the staff in front of and behind the scenes, so we decided to choose another suitable time to re-release.
At the same time, according to industry insiders, although Jia Ling's "Hot and Hot" has been a remarkable success, she has also offended some heavyweight investors because of it.
As her films took market share, cutting the margins of other productions, the marketing strategies she employed and the high level of popular support she gained also put competitive pressure on other actors. Therefore, it is no accident that she has become the object of public criticism.
Recently, a large number of articles that are unfavorable to Jia Ling have appeared on the Internet, which can't help but make people speculate how many people are dissatisfied with Jia Ling behind their backs.
Jia Ling's achievements now are of course supported by capital, but more of them are her personal hard work and unremitting efforts.
During the filming of "Hot and Hot", Jia Ling resolutely gained 40 pounds in order to perfectly interpret the fat image of the heroine Le Ying. Subsequently, in order to show the inspirational process of Le Ying's counterattack, she firmly lost 100 pounds, which was very dramatic and added a lot to the film.
Looking back a year ago, Jia Ling was still a fat girl who weighed as much as 220 pounds. However, in just one year, with amazing perseverance and persistence, she successfully ** to 109 pounds and became a fair lady. This huge contrast is not only amazing, but also shows her persistent pursuit and unremitting efforts in her acting career.
After a year of mysterious retirement, Jia Ling finally accepted a number of ** interviews on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, showing her new image to the public.
Her clear jawline, vigorous skills, and flexible body are all silently announcing: Jia Ling has succeeded, and her efforts have been rewarded with the best!
With the continuous improvement of Jia Ling's ** degree, her work "Hot and Hot" has also won the warm love and recognition of the audience.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the movie "Hot and Hot" landed strongly and quickly emerged, and the throne of the box office champion of the Spring Festival stalls was firmly occupied by it and continued to lead.
Jia Ling's film touched the heartstrings of many audiences, and they found emotional resonance in the film, sighed for the character's ** journey, and also expressed sincere admiration for Jia Ling's tenacity and perseverance. Even CCTV couldn't help but praise Jia Ling and spoke highly of her works.
After the release of "Hot and Hot", Jia Ling's beautiful body lines quickly won the love of many female audiences.
However, a different voice emerged then.
Some fitness coaches and bodybuilding enthusiasts have come forward to accuse Jia Ling of misleading the public!
They believe that after 100 pounds, ** will inevitably be relaxed, and it is impossible to maintain such a tight state, so they suspect that Jia Ling has resorted to medical cosmetology.
There is also a voice from relatively rational netizens, who express strong disgust at Jia Ling's hype.
They believe that a good film should show its depth and artistic value through the plot, rather than relying on the actors' individual weight-loss behavior to attract the audience, which completely distorts the essence and meaning of the film.
In addition, these netizens also pointed out that Jia Ling's ** behavior is essentially to pursue economic interests, and its so-called inspirational meaning seems very far-fetched, more like a hype carefully planned by the team.
Netizens maintain a relatively rational attitude towards various voices.
Among them, the reason why some netizens love "Hot and Hot" is indeed because they were moved by Jia Ling's firm perseverance.
However, more audiences were touched by the delicate, unique and intelligent female director perspective of Jia Ling's films, and her performance was in no way inferior to that of any male director.
Although the movie "Hot and Hot" uses the topic of Jia Ling's ** to promote to a certain extent, Jia Ling's ** process is inevitably driven by commercial interests.
However, in the end, it still needs to rely on Jia Ling's personal perseverance and persistence. I believe that everyone who has experienced the hardships and pains in the process can deeply understand it.
Up to now, that is, in the early morning of February 17, the box office of "Hot and Hot" has broken through the 2.6 billion mark, and the number of films has also climbed to 38%, showing a continuous strong momentum.
Although there are other movies that point the finger at Jia Ling's ** hype because their box office performance is not as good as "Hot and Hot", and even do not hesitate to buy them to make negative comments, the eyes of the majority of ordinary audiences are bright. After they saw **, Jia Ling was still radiant, and she was still willing to pay for her talent and dedication.
Maybe the audience is not just for the ** movie, but more looking forward to witnessing the gorgeous transformation and growth of their favorite comedy actresses.
Maybe they just hope to find a trace of their own shadow in Jia Ling's story, those women who have lost control of their emotions and burst into tears in the theater have finally realized their dreams through Jia Ling's story.
In the real roadshow activities, although Jia Ling is tired, she always maintains a refreshed state, constantly adjusts herself, and hopes to bring the most sincere happiness to the audience.
Although Jia Ling's body shape has changed, her core is still the same, she is still the girl who loves to laugh, with two small pear vortices on her face, bringing endless joy to the people around her. She is like this and is enough to be loved.
No matter how dissatisfied other movies are with her, no matter how capital dictates her, as long as the audience still loves her, she can always stand in the center of the stage and shine.
