The 2023 Host Contest is back in the picture, and one of the high-profile contestants, Zhang Liangjing, the leader of Shanxi Radio and Television Station, performed well in the competition. However, despite being praised for her simplicity by CCTV celebrity Haixia, Zhang Liangjing finally lost to Feng Lin in the finals, which made many viewers feel sorry.
At the beginning of the competition, Zhang Liangjing became famous with a 3-minute self-presentation with the theme of depth, temperature and appeal, won high scores, and became the best among the 60 players. In the second stage, when she coped with the exam questions of "CCTV Opera Gala", she still behaved sincerely and atmosphericly, making the audience feel as if they were at the party. Zhang Liangjing's confidence, elegance, and control of words on the stage left a deep impression on the audience.
However, at the time of the semifinals, Zhang Liangjing unexpectedly lost to Feng Lin, which made her road to the championship confusing. In the semi-finals of the "going out" practical assessment, the contestants need to show their foot power, eyesight, brain power and pen power, which is a comprehensive test of the host's all-round literacy. Zhang Liangjing chose the Longmen Hydrological Station of the Yellow River in the Shanxi-Shaanxi Grand Canyon as the interview location, and presented a unique perspective of expression through interviews with the story of Zhang Chao, a hydrographer, who adhered to his ordinary post.
In the short film, Zhang Liangjing compares the monitoring of hydrographers to "taking the pulse of the Yellow River", the gondola is a "free gym", and the small canteen is even nicknamed the "Yellow River Hotel".She skillfully uses poetic language to portray the hydrographer as "a person in an isolated island, with a peach blossom source in his heart". The whole short film is like a beautiful prose poem, which matches the style of the Yellow River and brings a strong audio-visual impact.
In the short film, Zhang Liangjing not only shows her excellent text output skills, but also presents the real and vivid life of a water clerk through careful selection of materials and in-depth interviews. She and hydrologist Zhang Chao sat in a 25-meter-high gondola for hydrological monitoring, and the interview in adversity made the audience feel more immersed in the short film. This authentic and emotionally rich expression became a highlight of Zhang Liangjing in the semi-final stage.
However, even though she performed well in the "going out" link, Zhang Liangjing eventually lost to Feng Lin. It is understood that Zhang Liangjing's comprehensive score is 97975 points, while Feng Lin won the championship with a higher score. This makes people wonder why Zhang Liangjing lost points in the scoring of the professional judges
The reason is that the 33-year-old Zhang Liangjing is not dominant in age, while the 24-year-old Feng Lin is considered to have greater training value. Feng Lin has been making great progress all the way, winning the first place in 3 appearances, and she is younger and more in line with the future development needs of the show. This is also one of the reasons for the judge's score on Lu Jian, who gave Zhang Liangjing a low score and Feng Lin a high score. From Zhang Shuyue in the last session to Feng Lin in this session, Lu Jian's scoring has always been a barometer of the program's preferences.
Although Zhang Liangjing praised Haikou in the head-to-head dialogue, she said that what she appreciated most was the sincerity and simplicity of the news events. However, she eventually lost to Feng Lin, which may be in the eyes of the judges, Feng Lin has more potential and development space as a news host.
For the audience, Zhang Liangjing may not have won the championship in this host competition, but her performance has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the audience. After competing four years ago and exiting early, she challenged herself again this time and appeared on stage in a new state. Her professional foundation is solid, her stage performance is confident and elegant, and her overall temperament is in line with CCTV. The audience may agree with Feng Lin's victory in their hearts, but Zhang Liangjing has become the champion in the minds of many people.
In this host competition, Zhang Liangjing may have lost the championship, but she has won the support and recognition of more audiences.
