The movie "Hot and Hot" grossed more than 1.8 billion at the box office.
The movie "Flying Life 2" grossed more than 1.6 billion at the box office.
It seems that there is only a difference of 200 million between the two films, but the gap between Jia Ling and Shen Teng has widened!
01
Before it's hot and hot.
When it comes to comedies, everyone will think of Shen Teng
For the past nine years, Shen Teng has been the box office guarantee of comedy movies.
To hire him means to make money.
Those with high volume have a higher box office.
Those with low volume will have a lower box office.
But they all far exceed the cost of investment
02
"Hello, Li Huanying" was born in 2021.
This is the first film directed by Jia Ling.
The plot, cast and acting skills are not good
But it exceeded everyone's expectations.
The film beat Chen Sicheng's "Chinatown investigation 3"
Won the championship at the box office that year.
From then on, we realized that Shen Teng's "strong rival" appeared.
In the field of variety, both of them have super funny ability and distinctive brain circuits.
Whether it is the "trump card versus trump card" of the cooperation between the two.
The Journey of Youth, which Jia Ling plays a leading role, is the favorite program of the children.
03
In 2024, Jia Ling's "Hot and Hot" met Shen Teng's ip film "Flying Life 2" when everyone was busy comparing the plot, cast and investment cost.
Jia Ling changed her routine-- she did it to herself!
The magic weapon of a comedian is baggage. As long as it can amuse the audience, there is no need to worry about the box office.
That's what Shen Teng did.
From the early "Charlotte trouble" to the later "richest man in Xihong"
And then to the recent solo moon.
The film itself is not much different.
Is to rely on intensive language baggage.
Shen Teng himself does not want to go out of the comfort zone
Even after "the Super Family" was scolded, he didn't change much.
Because he knows very well:
In this fast-vanishing era, as long as you can build a stalk, you can have food and clothing, even if you quit now, you don't have to worry about it for the rest of your life!
04
Jia Ling is different!
In order to show versatility
She has lost weight, which is 100 jin.
In the words of netizens: Jia Ling has reduced herself!
This is 100 jin, not 10 jin.
Anyone who has lost weight knows what this means.
For a year, we should strictly control our diet and keep exercising.
Accept a life that is unacceptable to ordinary people
And all this, she could have chosen to refuse.
Like Shen Teng, randomly find a script to shoot and record a variety show.
05
Maybe it's like the line "I want to win" that often appears in movies.
Jia Ling, who has already achieved success, wants to "win again".
And want to do that.
She needs to tear herself up and walk the road she used to walk again.
Even if there are many thorns on this road
It is worth pointing out
Jia Ling took a great risk in this attempt.
In the past, she was silly, very cute, and virtually narrowed the distance between her fans and her fans.
Now she has completely changed her appearance, without the two dimples next to her cheek
Many people don't even know that she is Jia Ling.
With more three-dimensional features, she is no longer so approachable, and her affinity has disappeared.
06
Facts have proved that Jia Ling's attempt is correct.
She led by example, changing her life trajectory by losing weight, setting an example for many people
It was the output of this kind of values that made the originally low-quality "Hot and Hot" grossed 1.8 billion yuan at the box office.
According to the current momentum, it is very likely to surpass "Hello Li Huanying" or even "Wolf Warriors 2".
What is visible to the naked eye is
In the years to come, Shen Teng will follow the old path and do not care about the quality of the film.
And Jia Ling? She will have more attempts, more possibilities!
As for whose choice is right, let the years prove it.
