This spring，the most eye—catching movie might be YOLO（《热辣滚烫》）. By March 18，it had made around 3. 5 billion yuan at the box office，reported Paper.
Directed by 41-year-old Jia Ling，the movie tells the story of a woman tired of the world，finding herself and learning to love life through boxing（拳击）. The name of YOLO is short for the movie's main idea—you only live once.
Jia Ling has tried many different roles in her life，including crosstalk（相声） and sketch（小品） performer，variety show（综艺节目） guest and actress. The movie Hi，Mom 2019（《你好，李焕英》） is the first one Jia directed in her life.
Jia didn't study directing at university. It makes her feel freer in film making because she doesn't need to follow a fixed style. To everyone's surprise，Hi，Mom 2019 made her the world's highest—grossing（票房最高的） woman director before 2023.
Before making YOLO，Jia was often seen as an overweight comedian（喜剧演员）. She often made jokes about herself to make people laugh. For this movie，Jia lost more than 50 kg which made it hard to imagine that this is the same Jia we once knew. Some people online said even her voice became softer，and they called this a"rebirth"for Jia. She has proved through her actions that if you want to be successful，you need to try your best.
In Jia's eyes，her change in identity（身份） and look is her way of saying true to herself. "It's hard to predict one's life. I'm just following my heart but not looking for changes in purpose. Movies are now the best way to show myself，so I put all my energy into them. "Jia told Xinhua.
"In fact，Jia didn't change. She's just being more herself. She shows us through her actions. "said talk show host Chen Luyu.
| China introduced the "double reduction (双减)" policy in July, 2022. According to the policy, it should take no more than 90 minutes for junior high school students to finish their homework. Several months have passed since the new term began. Here are the two students' points of view. |
| "Our homework is clearly less than before," said 15-year-old Xie Dong from Shijiazhuang. "We are not encouraged to buy workbooks any more. The exercises are mainly from the textbook." Students have enough time to learn new knowledge now. "Our teachers are also giving us more chances to do experiments and learn from real life," said Xie. Self-discipline (自律) becomes the key. "Some students now spend more time having fun when homework is finished early. But if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind other students," he said. "And we have few exams, I don't think it is a good thing." |
| For 15-year-old Zhang Jing from Langfang, the best thing about "double reduction" is the increased time in after-school activities. "We can now spend more time taking part in clubs and activities, such as dancing, volleyball and drama. I have joined a group called "leadership development" where I can learn all kinds of skills beyond schoolwork," said Zhang. There are fewer exams now. But it's not necessarily a good thing. "Exams push me to study harder. Each exam shows my progress as well as my weak points," Zhang said. |
