The light rain in Changsha did not extinguish the fans’ enthusiasm for the final of “Sister Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves”. The live broadcast started at 8 o’clock, and fans were waiting at the gate of the stadium with umbrellas two hours in advance. They came from various places just to witness the night of their sister’s debut.

The moment when Tranquility, Wan Qian, Meng Jia, Li Sidani, Zhang Yuqi, Yu Kewei, and Huang Ling announced their final debut in a group, some people were astonished, some exclaimed, and some just wanted to form a group with their 7 members. Others say that not every woman’s marriage goes well, and we should have the power to resist fists and violence. This is a long-lost sincere moment for artists who have always “cannot make mistakes”.

As of the end of the game, the #成风破浪的姐姐# has read 44.3 billion and there are more than 20 million discussions. When I saw Wan Qian’s photo appearing on the screen of the Changsha Hilton Hotel, it’s hard to imagine that just four months ago, when I was interviewed by The Definition, the problem Wan Qian faced was:” Not popular, is this a sign of unsuccessfulness”. This show irreversibly changed the fate of this summer and many “sisters”.

As Zhou knows, the original idea of ​​this show came from the ideas of netizens.

In Yi Lijing’s talk show “The Definition”, Zhang Yuqi, whose character is “Silly, White and Sweet, and the suitors are in Paris” once pointed out very accurately:

There should be a variety of products on the market. If products in other directions are too proliferation, and this aspect(female subject matter )If it is too missing, there must be a phenomenal performance.

After this summer, we already know that such works have appeared in TV dramas and variety shows-“Thirty Only” and “Sister Riding the Wind and Waves”.

From the opening copy of this program, we can see its ambition:

Thirty is standing, thirty is encouraging, and thirty is li.

It has indeed become a symbol because of this, which is given a lot of meaning by the audience. Most people expect this to be a show that breaks the traditional standards of “beauty” and the stereotype of women. From the competition system to the invitation of guest performers in the finals, discussions continue to arouse.

In the public expectation, this show can show the different looks of mature women, but the competition system is for the well-known actresses to dance a uniform dance; in anticipation, there are countless kinds of supporting guests who can compete with “sister “We” produced a chemical response, but the reality is that the program team found many male guests and commented by netizens, which instead made “elder sister” a foil.

This gap between expectations and reality has sparked rounds of discussions. But outside the discussion, outside the symbol, we are even more curious about what it leaves behind.

In many people’s expectations, this show should be presentedThe different personalities of the “sisters” now break this stereotype of beauty and age, instead of being bound by the rules of the show.

In the end, the show itself presented the reality and difficulties faced by women in the workplace and public opinion fields.

First of all, it shows the relationship between women as fellow travelers and competitors. Prior to this, various cultural products showed more of the latter, whether it was Gongdou-themed TV dramas or various variety shows.

Before the broadcast, most people were looking forward to “the place where there are many women” while disgusting, but this show has no intention of presenting the favorite plot of the “head flower”. Huang Ling and Lan Yingying sang “Afterwards”, Bai Bing turned sideways to shed tears. Wan Qian returned to the team to sing “A Bridge of Fate” after the car accident, and finally raised her injured hand with difficulty. Zhang Hanyun stood in the audience and kept crying. This is a true empathy and understanding of each other’s situation. It surpasses the external world merit ranking (coffee position) label.

But when it comes to the performance arena, everything changes again. Mu Qiang’s consciousness is overwhelming. Most people would choose Wan Qian, Tranquility, rather than Meng Jia, or other sisters who are not strong enough, young enough, and not popular enough. Those precise calipers returned to women, and those sisters who were blocked from outside had to stand alone in the center of the stage.

Outside the arena, Meng Jia was finally eliminated. Tranquility still said: “You didn’t dance badly today, but there is no way you have low votes. You must come if you have a chance.” At this moment, the women are back on the road together, making suggestions and helping each other.

Secondly, it presents women’s “success” in the sense of being loyal to themselves and gaining secular meaning
