Jia Ling's "Hot and Hot" is one of the 2024 Spring Festival movies.
Judging from the cast list, Zhang Xiaofei and Yang Zi and others have starred.
On January 4, stills broke out from this movie again.
Is this still Jia Ling?
However, this still is not officially released.
Authenticity is questionable.
But then again, this is also a rare high-profile after Jia Ling "disappeared" for a long time.
Since last year, her exposure has dropped dramatically.
Especially this year, she rarely appears on public platforms, and she doesn't see her variety show at the Spring Festival Gala at the beginning of the year.
For another example, she withdrew from the resident variety show "Ace vs. Ace".
What is 41-year-old Jia Ling pursuing?
01
Jia Ling's success is inseparable from two people.
The first is her older sister, Jadan.
Those who have watched the movie know that her mother's name is Lee Hwan Young.
She and her husband, Jia Wentian, are both workers in a chemical plant.
The family's life is very poor.
The two sisters are 5 years apart.
Jia Dan loves this sister very much.
When Jia Ling was naughty, she was really worried but reluctant to start.
When Jia Ling was 10 years old, she saw "Quyuan Miscellaneous" on TV.
Watching the guests on TV perform sketches and acrobatics, she will also silently imitate these sounds.
After a long time, she really liked acting.
At this time, Jia Dan was studying broadcasting and hosting at a certain school.
She originally wanted to go further to study at Wuhan Art School, but she had already studied at a secondary school.
In this way, Jia Dan began to train his sister Jia Ling.
In order to allow her sister to go to this school, she began to ask teachers to teach her sister.
Jia Ling also lived up to her expectations.
Later, when Jia Ling was 18 years old.
She plans to go north and go to a more professional school to learn Xi acting.
But it didn't work out.
At this time, she can only Xi to fight Nortel again.
It was her sister Jia Dan who sent her living expenses.
In 2000, comedy master Feng Gong suggested that Chinese opera set up a special cross talk creation class to cultivate professional drama talents.
A year later, that vision came true.
Not only did he teach in person, but he also called Jiang Kun, Hou Yaowen and others as substitute teachers.
At this time, Jia Ling thought this was a good opportunity.
She was also interested in playing.
To be on the safe side, she applied for the acting department and Feng Gong's comedy class.
Maybe she was the material to be an actress, and she was admitted at the same time.
During this time, she was always thinking about where she was going.
At this time, Li Huanying received a call from the school.
Because of her Xiangyang accent, the other party listened to the drama as a comedy.
In this way, Jia Ling became a student of the first Feng Gong comedy class.
At that time, there were very few girls who acted in comedy.
Jia Ling's class has a three-to-one ratio of men to women.
But already like this, she can only work hard to learn Xi.
In addition to this, she must succeed to repay her sister.
Because of the poor conditions at home, Li Huanying and his wife could only give up one child.
Jia Dan believes that as an older sister, she has to take on the responsibility of supporting her family.
So, she gave up the opportunity to enroll.
I have to say that following the master to learn and Xi, growth is fast.
Jia Ling followed Feng Gong to learn and Xi, and soon entered the door.
But something happened at home.
02
In 2001, Li Huanying worked in the fields.
On the way back, in order to prevent the straw on the tractor from falling to the ground, she firmly guarded the straw.
He fell out of the car and died instantly.
After learning about this, Jia Dan and Jia Ling rushed home as soon as possible.
But they only saw their mother's last look.
This incident also became the regret of the sisters' lives.
also laid the groundwork for Jia Ling to miss her mother and make a movie later.
At this time, Jia Wentian fell.
Since his sister is still in school, all the expenses of the family fall on Jia Dan.
She sent more than half of her salary to Jia Ling.
Gradually, however, she found that she could no longer afford her sister's expenses.
So I often taught my sister to be thrifty.
But Jia Ling really didn't spend money indiscriminately, after all, the prices in Beijing were there.
The 500 yuan given by my sister is only enough for her to live in a basement of less than 10 square meters.
In a later interview, when this incident was mentioned, Jia Dan burst into tears.
I've always said that I don't have the ability.
In 2003, Jia Ling graduated from the comedy class.
In the same year, she won the championship of the Beijing Crosstalk Competition.
In general, she will be appreciated by many people and rise to the top.
But that's not the case.
One thing to say, there were really few girls performing cross talk on stage at that time.
Some performances, male actors can, and actresses can cause controversy if they are not careful.
Therefore, there was not much difference between Jia Ling's champion at that time and passers-by.
After more than a year on stage, the audience did not remember her face.
In order to make a living, she can only work part-time everywhere, and then rely on her sister's help to barely survive.
At this time, Jia Dan also began to wonder if it was wrong to let his sister learn Xi comedy.
So, she asked her sister to find a job with a high-speed fee.
The salary is very substantial, and there is no problem in supporting yourself.
But Jia Ling was reluctant in every way.
On the one hand, she is very strong, and on the other hand, she really likes to perform.
In order to dispel her sister's idea of letting her go back to her hometown, she could only find the teacher, Feng Gong.
Feng Gong liked this student very much.
She patted her chest and promised Jia Dan: She is a good seedling, and the child is willing to learn this business, and I will take her out.
The child has nowhere to live, I take care of it.
With Feng Gong's assurance, Jia Dan was relieved.
In 2005, Jia Ling officially worshipped Feng Gong as a teacher.
After performing with Master for a year, she earned 10 years of rent and successfully improved her life.
In future interviews, just mention Master.
She always talks about gratitude.
In 2009, she met another benefactor.
This time, she is finally popular.
03
Jia Ling met the comedy master, Jiang Kun, backstage on a show.
She was also very bold and said directly: Teacher, you can watch my performance in a while and introduce me.
Jiang Kun said half-jokingly: Can you go to the Spring Festival Gala?
Didn't know what was going on halfway through.
But Jia Ling did appear on the Spring Festival Gala the following year, that is, in 2010.
It is said that there is also Feng Gong's handwriting.
Knowing that his sister's work was selected, Jia Dan stayed in front of the TV in advance.
Jia Ling and Bai Kainan on the stage were obviously performing comedy, but she cried.
Seeing her sister finally get ahead, her heart was full of bitterness.
After becoming popular, the first thing Jia Ling did was to repay her sister and father.
She bought a house and a car for both of her relatives.
Financially, she became the support of the two.
But what she misses most is her mother.
The market is still cruel, and some directors are not satisfied with Jia Ling's appearance, so she basically can't receive the play.
At that time, in addition to participating in the evening performances of various David TVs.
Jia Ling has also participated in many comedy variety shows.
In "Variety Show", she is always stingy and ugly.
If the audience says it's not good-looking, that's right.
If the audience laughs, her performance is qualified.
However, looking at the apprentices who blackened themselves and pretended to be stupid on the stage, Feng Gong felt distressed.
He patted his apprentice on the shoulder and said, "What are you doing as a girl?"
In fact, Jia Ling is also uncomfortable listening to other people's attacks on his figure, but she really loves comedy.
Seeing that the apprentice was so sincere, Feng Gong didn't want to say anything.
In 2016, she was officially promoted to boss and founded her own company.
It was also this year that she took the company's artists to participate in comedy variety shows.
During this period, she invited her friend Chen He to perform the sketch "Hello, Li Huanying" together.
This is her original work.
She wanted to take this opportunity to remember her mother and witness every important moment of her (the establishment of the company) with her.
After the release of this sketch, it was very popular.
Inspired by this, Jia Ling decided to bring her mother's story to the big screen.
04
This preparation is three years.
The film also officially started filming in 2019.
It can be seen from Jia Ling's words that she wants to make up for her regrets for her mother through this movie.
At that time, Jia Ling was 37 years old, and she thought that if she didn't start filming, she would not be able to play her daughter at her age.
She also called her employee and friend Zhang Xiaofei to play the leading role.
The friendship between the two has lasted for many years.
In 2012, Jia Ling, who had not been popular for a long time, also spoke up for her friends.
This collaboration has different meanings for both of them.
In real life, her mother was the first person to buy a TV.
In the movie, she also deliberately presented this clip.
"Wang Qin" also has a TV ticket in his hand, but he only has one product.
"Jia Xiaoling" played a blind man, allowing "Li Huanying" to buy a TV.
Jia Ling was also specially given a close-up in the movie.
Watching her "mother" buy a TV, she was very relieved.
And keep asking: Are you happy?
This is not what she wants to say to her biological mother.
Not only that, but she also called her father to star.
Although there are few lines, they are very satisfying for Jia Wentian.
Feng Gong, who rarely appears in movies, also came to cheer for his apprentices.
Seeing the master and apprentice in the same frame in this way, the audience was very touched.
I have to say that maternal love is really an eternal topic.
Movies shot with care can easily be affirmed by the audience.
This movie broke 100 million not long after its release.
The final box office was as high as 5.4 billion.
Jia Ling became the highest-grossing female director in the world.
Zhang Xiaofei, who has been unknown in the entertainment industry for many years, directly entered the first line.
also won the heavyweight award of Golden Rooster.
I have to say that the red gas raises people, and when Zhang Xiaofei appeared on the Spring Festival Gala again, everyone found that she had become more temperamental.
This is inseparable from Jia Ling's support.
Since 2018, the two have become regular partners in the Spring Festival Gala.
For example, in "True and False Teacher", one plays the role of a teacher, and the other is mistaken for the child's mother.
The two are both friends and partners.
Not only Zhang Xiaofei, but Liu Yan was also helped by her.
Her actions directly put the other party out of the situation.
is worthy of being the No. 1 female artist in audience love.
Of course, her high emotional intelligence is also admirable.
In 2014, the host of Golden Eagle did not arrive at the scene for some reason.
The organizers hope that Jia Ling can calm the field.
Unexpectedly, the reporter was silent.
She used self-deprecating words to resolve this contradiction.
No wonder Shen Teng said:
"Jia Ling's biggest advantage is that men like her, and women are not jealous of her."
The audience also joked, the criterion for judging an artist's popularity is whether he has had an affair with Jia Ling?
Maybe even Jia Ling herself didn't think of it.
She will have an affair with Fan Chengcheng, who is 18 years younger than her, 9 years later.
Public opinion has reached a point where it is out of control.
It was only after the actor himself came forward that the turmoil was calmed down.
Anyone who hears it thinks it's ridiculous.
This is obviously Jia Ling taking care of her younger brother, and she is a support for the younger generations.
wants Fan Chengcheng to increase the topic and exposure.
epilogue
In the final analysis, Shen Teng's words were only half right.
What is the first reaction of some artists after becoming popular.
It's traffic monetization.
Hurry up and use the heat to market yourself.
But Jia Ling was not arrogant or impatient, and chose to retreat bravely.
has always adhered to his own comedy path.
During this period, she first fulfilled her promise to fans and lost 100 pounds.
Then he polished his second film work with his heart.
Whether it can be as successful as "Hello, Li Huanying" will have to wait for the release.
