Writing Jia Ling now seems a bit thankless.
After "Hot and Hot", some netizens developed "antibodies" against Jia Ling.
It is not surprising that there is too much unconvincing among the male group.
Interestingly, even some women criticized Jia Ling for making money with "appearance anxiety", questioning why women's power and freedom should ultimately be reflected through thinness;
No way, in this world, women always face more doubts, perfection and balance are always the invisible shackles on them, the higher they stand, the greater the wind and rain.
The only effective way to deal with this difficulty is to "don't explain, walk past".
Not long ago, the photo of Jia Ling and Wu Yanzu was on the hot search.
Wu Yanzu posted a selfie of him and Jia Ling on his social media. The picture is so raw that it can't be regenerated, without any beautification and filters. Jia Ling, who laughed, had a lot of expression lines on her face in addition to dimples, and this kind of texture was naturally understood by the sisters who had lost weight and lost weight.
After this photo was released, many netizens exclaimed that Jia Ling was really thin and ugly.
This kind of "ugliness" is partly due to Wu Yanzu's selfies, after all, this guy's usual selfie style has been released to outer space.
"Handsome guys take ugly photos of themselves", maybe I really don't care, I don't have any obsession with my appearance, and my evaluation of others' looks has been blocked.
In addition, Jia Ling laughed too much and completely gave up expression management.
Who hasn't had a few crash pictures in their life? Think about it, if I take a photo with Wu Yanzu, I will laugh more happily than her.
The third reason is that we are less and less receptive to our true appearance.
In fact, I think that in this era, beauty is not difficult, especially for entertainment stars.
Truthfulness, on the contrary, is a more difficult character than beauty - facing yourself truthfully, being true to yourself, is the most difficult thing in this era.
Jia Ling now has a lot of resources and enough influence, whether she wants to do it or not, at least like many star teams, she can ask to only send the studio's retouched pictures.
But she didn't, she accepted everything calmly, just like accepting everyone's bad reviews for her movies.
Accept who you are. This kind of courage, let alone celebrities, is difficult for us ordinary people to do.
Nowadays, who posts a circle of friends without beautification and filters, and gives himself a P picture?
Over time, we have forgotten what we look like when we laugh, that people are flesh and blood, and that wrinkles are a part of life.
The beauty of people's appearance lies in their dynamics, expressions and connotations, and even celebrities are difficult to be as beautiful as comic characters.
I don't know if you have watched the news of Son Ye-jin and his wife watching football together recently.
Celebrities are just a little better looking than most ordinary people in real life, and they will never be as perfect as retouched pictures.
What's more, for a director of Jia Ling's level, if you don't find fault with Zhang Yimou's wrinkles on his face, you naturally shouldn't stare at Jia Ling's wrinkles.
This time, Jia Ling and Wu Yanzu met because she held an internal exchange meeting for the movie "YOLO" on Sony Studios in Hollywood.
《热辣滚烫》的英文名为《YOLO》，是“You only live once”的首字母缩写。
Wu Yanzu not only participated in this exchange meeting, but was also the first to be named by Jia Ling to speak.
On his social media, Wu described YOLO as "a lost, insecure young woman who finds herself through boxing."
"Find yourself" is a more accurate assessment than the wording of many film critics.
Although weight loss may bring about the problem of sagging skin, in fact, when Jia Ling is not smiling, she is a normal woman in her forties, so there is really no need to over-advertise the skin problems after weight loss.
Some people can't accept Jia Ling, who is smiling with facial expression lines, because they are the initiators of appearance anxiety, and they default to being thin is beautiful, or they are beautiful if they are thin.
Whether it is the expression in the movie or the offline interview, Jia Ling has never said that losing weight is for beauty.
In the movie, Du Leying lost weight in order to fight boxing and win once.
Jia Ling off the screen, losing weight is more like a rebirth - refusing to please the audience and continuing to be the Jia Ling that the audience expects.
Now she's thin and loose-skinned, but she looks happy, and that's enough.
In fact, many times, we don't want the things we are familiar with to be changed, and even there are not so many people in this world, hoping that others will be better.
As a comedian, Jia Ling has a festive appearance, which meets the expectations of the Chinese people for "New Year's Picture Doll". Whether on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala or on variety shows, she is a "soft persimmon with high emotional intelligence", which makes people laugh and make people unguarded, and uses silliness and bluntness to cover up the sensitive self in the depths of her heart.
Jia Ling said that part of her fat is what the audience is used to.
Everyone likes her because her image is not aggressive, and her roundness even inspires everyone's sympathy.
Although this kind of compassion will bring kindness and like, once the sympathized person awakens, he or she wants to change through hard work rather than standing still and waiting to be sympathized.
If you can be a female warrior, who is willing to be a soft persimmon?
Although many viewers are still living in the era of comedian Jia Ling, it is clear that Jia Ling herself has made up her mind to say goodbye to the past.
She personally lived her limited life into different stages. This decision has nothing to do with beauty and ugliness, she is doing a difficult thing, this thing is not a necessary thing for her, but she does it, it is very powerful.
During this trip to the United States, in addition to promoting "YOLO" ("Hot and Hot"), Jia Ling also served as the producer of the American version of "Hello, Li Huanying".
No matter which social platform you are on, there will always be a voice in the bad reviews about "Hot and Hot": If you have the ability to shoot an original story, why do you always plagiarize (remake) someone else's.
"Hot and Hot" did buy the copyright of the Japanese movie "100 Yuan Love", which is a localized remake.
However, remakes are a very normal thing in the film industry, and they belong to high-quality cultural resource sharing and commercial reciprocal activities, and they cannot rise to the level of "whether they have the ability or not".
What's more, not all of the movies directed by Jia Ling are remakes.
The film "Hello, Li Huanying" is her original story. Although this story first appeared on the stage of sketches and dramas, Jia Ling has always been the main creator and copyright owner of "Hello, Li Huanying".
Now that it has been bought by a Hollywood company and is ready to be remade, Jia Ling personally went to the United States to serve as an executive producer.
This was originally a matter of raising eyebrows, but Jia Ling didn't dare to publicize it. Because many self-media have rhythm, why are foreign companies so optimistic about Jia Ling, and is Jia Ling too close to overseas capital......
When a woman succeeds, and not through who she marries or gives birth to, but through her own efforts and creation, she obtains benefits and rights, she has more points of criticism.
In this way, the road to success for women is much more difficult.
The encounter between Wu Yanzu and Jia Ling was not for nothing.
Wu Yanzu once said something that shocked people: "I like strong women, they have to step over many men to get to their current status." ”
This is an interview with Wu Yanzu ten years ago.
After reading this interview, I think his view of gender is more amazing than his appearance.
At the same time, I also realized that whether a person has a progressive view of the sexes is not based on gender, but on the environment.
And we all have a responsibility to create and maintain this environment.
The social systemic discrimination suffered by women is reflected in Jia Ling's "Hot and Hot", and it is even more vividly reflected in the ups and downs outside the movie.
Why is the people-pleasing personality more common in women?
Why is Du Leying, played by Jia Ling, who is also fat, regarded as useless, split, disliked, harassed, and used, while the ex-boyfriend played by Qiao Shan not only does not have these troubles, but can also marry Du Leying's best friend?
is also a director and star, why is Jia Ling questioned for taking shortcuts and excessive marketing for the movie to lose weight, and Aamir Khan is simply admirable for losing weight for the movie?
Why are male directors being discussed at the box office and female directors being discussed about wrinkles?
During the Spring Festival, when "Hot and Hot" encountered the first wave of doubts, Jia Ling, who was skiing in Xinjiang, posted a Weibo.
Someone always asks me what I'm shooting~
I'll shoot what you see~
This is the meaning of the movie~
I can feel loved, and I want to give you love in return~
I picked up countless broken us, pieced together a Le Ying, and we held hands to explore how to live this short and long life~
P.S. It's so windy in Xinjiang this year, because I'm standing on the top of the mountain~
How to live a short and long life? Live according to your own will - dare to fight, dare to give up, dare to stand on the top of the mountain, even if the cold wind blows.
"Be yourself" is not a slogan, but a qualification. People who have the right to speak are more likely to grow into big trees, not afraid of strong winds and people's words.
