In 2021, when she was promoting the movie "Hello, Li Huanying", she said:
If this movie crosses 3 billion at the box office, I will be thin like a lightning bolt.
"Hello, Li Huanying" finally had a box office of 5.413 billion.
Three years later, she entered the Lunar New Year file again with her new film "Hot and Hot", and this time she fulfilled her promise.
She lost weight like a bolt of lightning, which amazed countless netizens and made many moviegoers shed tears.
After her weight loss became the biggest gimmick of the movie, she posted:
This is not a movie about losing weight, but about learning to love yourself.
I don't know when it started, when it comes to Jia Ling, it will inevitably remind people of her rich and round image, and such a figure also blurs the public's concept of her gender.
If she loses weight, it won't be funny to act in sketches.
Such comments often appear in the corners of the Internet.
Is this really the case?
Actually, she didn't become popular when she was fat.
Young and inactive
It's so hard for a person to drift north, it's better to go back to his hometown to work.
In the fourth year after she graduated from Chinese opera, her sister Jia Dan went to Beijing to see her, and for the first time she learned about her real life in Beijing.
At that time, she had already participated in many competitions and won awards, but she still had no stable source of income.
She rents 400 yuan a month in a basement in Beijing.
Every day is to live with pickles and steamed buns, and often can't pay the rent.
The family thought that she was outside, not to mention the infinite scenery, at least she had a normal life, who would have thought that she would be so depressed.
Seeing her sister in such harsh living conditions, her sister Jia Dan was furious with her and asked her to go home with her.
In the eyes of ordinary people, graduating from a bachelor's degree in Chinese opera will not be like this no matter how poor it is.
In order to let her go home, Jia Dan even inquired about the recruitment of administrative posts in the Hubei Hometown Transportation Bureau, and said that he would take her back.
She was 26 years old.
A girl at this age, such a life, no matter how you look at it, it looks like she is about to "waste" her life.
And the reason why she took the road of staging sketches is also full of "comedy".
In 1994, at the age of 12, she followed her sister Jia Dan to sign up to learn acting, and her family originally hoped that the two could have multiple employment opportunities in the future.
This is 6 years.
Compared to her sister, she has more talent and love for acting.
This also made her choose a higher professional institution like the Central Academy of Drama in the college entrance examination.
However, she also entered a fork in the road of fate for the first time.
There is always a bit of a gap between being gifted and being "talented".
She fell off the list.
But she didn't give up, nor did she settle for the next best, but firmly decided to take the exam again.
The following year, just in case, she enrolled in two majors, one in theater and one in comedy.
Who would have thought that she was admitted to both majors, and a dramatic scene happened to her again.
She wasn't at home, her mom got a call from the admissions office, and when asked about her choice of major, the drama turned into a comedy because of the accent.
By accident, her mother chose a comedy acting class for her, which indirectly created her later unique life.
Tease and tease
Speaking of comedy, many netizens may think of characters like Wu Junru and Chen Shulan in Hong Kong films.
Playing ugly is almost a curse that comedian actresses can't escape.
However, the development direction of her comedy class is not to act in film and television dramas, but to talk about cross talk.
Speaking of cross talk actors, can anyone think of any particularly famous actress?
Hardly.
This industry is destined to be embarrassing for gender women, which also gives her a very difficult career start.
She once described herself in a variety show:
Like a woman who entered the wrong bathhouse, she disguised herself as a bather.
The year she graduated from college, she participated in the "National Cross Talk Sketch Invitational Competition" and won the first prize in the cross talk group.
A year after graduation, she worked hard to be admitted to the China Broadcasting Art Troupe and studied under Feng Gong.
However, the nature of her work did not change for the better because of her efforts.
After studying under Feng Gong for a year, she participated in CCTV's cross talk competition and won the second prize in the professional group.
That still hasn't changed her "hungry and full" career.
A large part of the reason is: she is a "female comedian".
In the cross talk industry, her gender makes her work a hundred times harder, and she can only stand on the stage.
On the cross talk stage, the actor makes a fool of himself and shakes the large-scale burden, and the audience will find it funny.
However, as soon as the gender changes, the actress does not make the audience feel humorous.
A lot of cross talk "actresses can't act at all".
So where is her way out?
This also caused her to encounter the scene she told before, and her sister persuaded her to give up this road and go home to work safely.
After the sisters quarreled, she only expected her sister to give her another year, and if that didn't work, she would go home.
And the master Feng Gong also came out to speak for her.
This allowed the 26-year-old to continue to pursue her dream in Beijing.
It was also in this year that she thought hard day and night, and finally developed her own new cross talk "cool comedy".
This cross talk mode adds stage comedy, in addition to humorous jokes, exaggerated body language is also added to make cross talk more vivid.
She performed everywhere with this innovative cross talk interpretation model, and then founded the "New Laughter Inn" with Zou Seng and others, specializing in interpreting and spreading "cool cross talk".
This year, she was 27 years old.
After developing a new term for cross talk, fate quickly extended an olive branch to her.
The story of "teasing and teasing" was brought to a bigger stage by her.
The Spring Festival Gala became popular
After talking about cool comedy, she met a good partner Bai Kainan, and the two went south and north to many stages.
In a performance of the Broadcasting Art Troupe, the order of the program was temporarily adjusted, and the order of her and Jiang Kun's programs was reversed before and after, which also made her program rank in front of Jiang Kun.
As soon as she performed on stage, she attracted bursts of applause from the audience, and Jiang Kun was also amazed by the novel cross talk mode.
After the show ended, a staff member backstage asked her to call Jiang Kun back.
This call opened the door to a new world for her.
Before going on stage, she and Jiang Kun joked backstage.
The other party asked her:
Is the show suitable for the Spring Festival Gala?
She said:
Fit.
was originally a joke, but after the performance, Jiang Kun said to her on the phone:
Your show is really good, I recommend it to you to the Spring Festival Gala.
Want to go to the Spring Festival Gala?
She prepared carefully and worked hard to polish and polish the script.
Huangtian lived up to his wishes, and her program was chosen.
After years of hard work and recognition, she is not to mention how happy.
Soon, however, a basin of cold water was poured over his head.
Master Feng Gong called her and informed her that there was a program change in the Spring Festival Gala and her program was removed.
Feng Gong, who felt her depressed, comforted her:
Work well next year, there is a kind of victory called retreat.
The next day, Feng Gong also prepared something to visit her.
As a result, he was still on the way, and Feng Gong received a call again, and Jia Ling's show was on again.
This is a big ups and downs, and no one can bear it.
So, Feng Gong called her again and informed her:
Time does not wait for me, the opportunity will not come again, there is a kind of victory called forward.
Whether the Spring Festival Gala can be held in the end, as long as it does not really go on stage, there will always be the possibility of being temporarily removed.
After experiencing this turmoil, she decided not to tell her family about going to the Spring Festival Gala first.
In the program after the New Year's bell rang in 2010, she and Bai Kainan appeared with "Big Talk".
Her life has changed dramatically.
And when she called home, her family, who did not have the habit of vigil, was already immersed in sleep.
Be duty-bound not to turn back
Compared with acting, cross talk is relatively niche after all.
After becoming popular with the Spring Festival Gala, she continued to talk about cross talk, and also acted in sketches, and also made cameo appearances in film and television dramas.
But the dividends of the Spring Festival Gala will be eaten up after all, and she bravely tried to change again.
Only this time, her behavior was quite "hysterical".
She began to "play ugly" in "Variety Show".
With many years of experience on the cross talk stage and no image baggage, she has won good ratings for the show and let more people see her potential.
However, there is no turning back.
What was once her lean image is beginning to fade away.
From being ugly and funny to having a rich and honest image, it has become a matter of a short moment.
In 2015, when she appeared on the stage of "Happy Comedian", she had already become a cute fat person.
To be funny, she "eats everything".
From a mouthful of watermelon to two red peppers when you open your mouth, to a bottle of beer with your head up.
She can be said to have done her best to stay on the stage.
In her increasingly fat figure, in the years when she was busy with work, her relationship with her boyfriend came to an end.

In 2021, with years of work experience, she will put "Hello, Li Huanying" on the big screen.
Li Huanying is her mother's name in reality.
It is also a regret of her life.
In the first month of being admitted to the Chinese opera, my mother died of illness, and the two did not see each other for the last time.
didn't let her mother see the scenery later, she also bought a green fur coat for her mother back then, thinking about giving it to her mother.
As a result, it was too late.
And this dress appeared in the stills of "Hello, Li Huanying".
The film was a huge success, and her name as a female director quietly went out into the world.
Living out of herself and loving herself has become her new pursuit.
epilogue
In order to shoot "Hot and Hot", she first gained 40 pounds, and vividly expressed the unacceptance of the role she played after graduating from college.
Then because he decided to find himself, he began to lose weight.
This is also a sign that she has begun to transform in reality, and her goal is to lose 100 pounds.
This also means that she said goodbye to the self she used to be funny, even regardless of her image.
The movie itself is very inspirational, but putting aside the movie and returning to reality, her work hard to lose 100 pounds is not only an interpretation of the role in the movie, but also a cocoon in her life path into a butterfly.
