01

saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, will she focus on creation?

on september 27, dawan entertainment released a business adjustment statement on the social media platform. the brokerage contracts of zhang xiaofei, xu juncong, bu yu, he huan, zhang taiwei, zhu tianfu, cao hejun, and liu honglu have expired and will not be renewed in the future. cooperation continues in different forms. director jia ling will also no longer hold her position at dawan entertainment and will instead focus on content creation.

subsequently, jia ling, zhang xiaofei and others forwarded this content and said: "we have a long way to go." this decision aroused the attention and heated discussion among netizens.

in addition, although jia ling no longer holds a position in the company, guqi chacha shows that she still holds 65% of the shares as the actual controller of dawan entertainment, and her father took over as the legal representative and chairman.

netizens speculate that this arrangement may be to better balance the relationship between personal creation and company operations, and may also be to conduct capital operations and resource allocation more effectively.

everyone has been talking about jia ling's choice. is it a careful consideration of her personal career, or is she trying to reduce conflicts of interest and respond more flexibly to changes in the current entertainment market? she may be looking for a new model of cooperation, or trying to find a new balance between work pressure and internal team management.

some netizens said: dawan entertainment chose to take the initiative to let go and no longer interfere with artist management contracts. it not only respects the free development of artists, but also complies with the laws of the industry. jia ling is not only responsible for herself, but also for her artists.

some netizens also commented on this: it is particularly wise to let go at the appropriate time, allowing artists more space to explore and grow. the relationship between the platform and artists is based on mutual achievement. only by making timely adjustments can the value of both parties be maximized.

at the same time, as zhang xiaofei and other artists have terminated their contracts with dawan entertainment, concerns about their future independent development have caused concern among some fans.

however, the general view among netizens is positive, and everyone hopes to see them shine on the new stage. in addition, netizens said that no matter which platform these artists choose to develop, they have the ability to show their talents.

the cooperation between jia ling, dawan entertainment and its artists may have ushered in a new chapter, but the relationship between the two has not come to an end. in the future, they will explore more possibilities for cooperation in different projects. this strategic adjustment has attracted attention from both inside and outside the industry, which shows jia ling's in-depth layout and forward-looking thinking in the film and television industry.

there is a lot of speculation about jia ling's next plan. some netizens believe that she may plan to set up a new entertainment company on her own, or focus more on high-quality content creation, incubate more outstanding film works, and further deepen her career in the field of directing.

regardless of the plan and decision, many netizens expressed support and blessings for jia ling, believing that this was a positive direction for her career transformation and development.

the combined box office results of the two works were 8.752 billion yuan. it can be seen that jia ling, a former sketch actor turned director, has a place in the chinese film industry and her huge potential and influence in the field of film creation.

"hot" won praise from the audience for its unique female perspective and profound social significance. one film critic said: "she explores the issues of gender, relationships, and family very seriously, without a trace of sensationalism."

during this year's national day, two of jia ling's films, as classics loved by audiences, were selected into cctv6's national day special program. this is undoubtedly a recognition and encouragement for jia ling and her works.

the public is looking forward to jia ling's further development in the field of directing and more excellent works from her.

at the same time, the contract between jia ling and zhang xiaofei has ended. although many fans feel regretful, most netizens believe that this will not affect the friendship between the two. instead, they are more looking forward to the two of them creating more exciting sparks in the new cooperation.

it is reported that jia ling still has several works to be broadcast, including "blooming flowers" and "big collection", etc. the previews of these works quickly aroused the audience's expectations.

in addition to her achievements in the film field, jia ling also shines in the fashion industry.

previously, she was invited to attend the opening ceremony of the paris olympic games as the spokesperson of the prada brand and attended the olympic committee president's dinner. on the red carpet, she shared the same frame with football legend didier drogba, who thoughtfully held an umbrella for her, showing his gentlemanly demeanor.

at the recent milan fashion week, jia ling and li xian appeared in prada's fashion show together. the two took photos together, showing their elegance and high-end fashion.

jia ling not only appeared on the cover of marie claire magazine's september issue together with japanese actress sakura ando, ​​but also appeared on the cover of harper's bazaar, showing her unique fashion sense and confident style.

her appearance, whether on the catwalk or on the cover of a magazine, conveys the perfect combination of fashion and personality. she is an independent and strong representative of the "big heroine".

judging from jia ling's existing works, whether they are comedies or emotional films, they all show her own unique style and deep emotional heritage. moreover, her commercial value has increased, and she has also entered the fashion industry, which can be said to have reached a higher level in all aspects.

behind the screen, is the spring for female directors coming?

"it's hot" has achieved impressive box office results since its release, making jia ling tenth and ninth on the chinese director box office list.

through this film, she explores the current living conditions of 30-year-old women and directly addresses the difficulties faced by women at the bottom. at the end of the movie, the audience is reminded to "live once for yourself", which shows the tenacity and unyieldingness of women. this triggered a call from some viewers: "we need more female directors, more heroines, and more female stories told from a female perspective."

from the unique perspective of a female director, this film tells a story about women's self-salvation and growth. it also incorporates jia ling's personal struggle and weight loss journey into it, arousing public attention to women's power and self-realization.

in order to portray the heroine in this movie, jia ling went through an arduous weight loss process, and this process was truly recorded in the behind-the-scenes documentary "i only live once."

the documentary took 20 months to film and produce, and is divided into four episodes, namely "adventure", "transformation", "sprint" and "fighter". this is not only a documentary of the behind-the-scenes work of a movie, but also records the hardships jia ling went through to create the character.

in this film, the audience can gain an in-depth understanding of jia ling’s behind-the-scenes story when she created "hot", as well as her efforts and persistence for art. this film not only attracted attention because of its female director status, but also became a symbol of female power because of its content and jia ling's personal struggle story.

however, the film is not without its controversies. for example, some viewers questioned the plot logic of the film and the difficult-to-understand emotional lines of the two starring characters, jia ling and lei jiayin.

some viewers think that jia ling's portrayal of the heroine is lacking. they think that jia ling tried to express the "mourning" and decadent state of the heroine, but it gave people a feeling of weakness and fragmentation.

some people also think that the setting of personal transformation through a boxing match in the movie is too simplistic, saying, "the character du leying is the product of the wealthy class's unrealistic obscenities and fantasies about ordinary people. it is purely self-impressed." the character the setting is unreasonable and divorced from reality, cannot be justified, and lacks persuasiveness.

some viewers believe that making weight loss a focus of the film's promotion may have inadvertently contributed to society's stereotypes and pressures on women's bodies.

of course, it cannot be denied that jia ling, as a female director, has achieved great success in the film market, breaking the limitations of traditional gender roles in the director's position.

from jia ling in "hello, li huanying" and "hot and spicy" to yin lichuan in "determination to run away", to teng congcong in "my altay", to yin ruoxin in "wild child", their works are characterized by their the deeply rooted story, distinct female perspective and emotional expression have won enthusiastic support from the audience.

the spring of female directors seems to have arrived. they have not only made achievements in the field of art films, but have also begun to occupy a place in the commercial film market. jia ling's success and the emergence of more female directors are driving the entire industry to pay attention to gender equality and female career development, prompting the entertainment industry to re-examine content creation from a female perspective.

although the number and influence of female directors is gradually growing, their participation and influence in the industry as a whole still needs to be improved.

i hope jia ling can continue to go further and further with female directors this time.
