In today's era of entertainment diversification, every movement of variety shows may cause widespread discussion. "Riding the Wind 2024" has undoubtedly become the center of hot topics, especially after the ranking results of the finals were announced, and the reactions of netizens were even more uneven. Many people were puzzled by Shang Wenjie's unexpected third place, and some viewers even questioned whether there was a "human sophistication" of the program team behind this.
We have to mention the amazing performance of the season champion Chen Haoyu. From a relatively unfavored player, he went against the tide and finally won the championship, which is undoubtedly an inspirational story. But more attention is focused on Shang Wenjie. Shang Wenjie's third place result is a reflection of strength, or is it the special care of the program team?
Throughout the competition, Shang Wenjie has always maintained a stable performance. Although she isn't the type of player to compete for the top, she has been solid enough on every stage performance. Especially in the live broadcast competition, Shang Wenjie's "Love" received 427 votes, which is a strong proof of her strength. The song not only won the vote of the audience, but also won a valuable seat for her team.
The crux of the matter is that although Shang Wenjie's performance has been stable, her ranking has dropped in the early days, which has confused many viewers. Why was Shang Wenjie able to suddenly break out of the encirclement and win the third place in the crucial finals? In this regard, some viewers speculated that Shang Wenjie may have given some "care" in "Riding the Wind 2024" in order to make up for her poor performance in "Singer 2024" because of her previous poor performance in "Singer 2024". Although this claim is not supported by direct evidence, it seems to have become a point of view that cannot be ignored, driven by public opinion.
On the other hand, we can't ignore Qi Wei's situation. According to the data, Qi Wei's performance throughout the competition has been very strong, and even in the early stage, she was once regarded as the favorite for the championship. However, in the finals, Qi Wei unexpectedly fell to fourth place. Such a change has undoubtedly deepened the audience's doubts about the fairness of the show.
In this context, the discussion among the audience became more and more enthusiastic. The credibility and fairness of the program have always been a matter of great concern to the audience. In this case, should the program team disclose the detailed scoring criteria and voting data to the public to calm the public's doubts?
Shang Wenjie's third place did cause a lot of discussion. Whether it is her strength or the operation of the program team, the controversy of the audience mainly focuses on these two aspects. How should we view this result, whether we appreciate Shang Wenjie's persistence and talent, or question the selection process of the show? It's a question worth thinking about for all entertainment production teams. Maintaining fairness and transparency while pursuing ratings and topicality is the key to winning the trust and support of the audience.
