Phuong My Chi and the Chinese singer hate each other, the organizers have to settle?

Recently, a clip recorded the moment when the artists participated in the program Sing! Asia explores and experiences the culture and cuisine of China together, which has attracted the attention of a large audience.

In particular, what makes fans especially interested is the moment when Phuong My Chi and Chu Phi Ca, a male singer from China, accidentally sat next to each other on a street tour bus.

Although it is just a small detail, this situation immediately caused a stir because the two had previously been entangled in rumors of "discord" when participating in the contest together. In the clip, Phuong My Chi and Chu Phi Ca both kept a polite attitude, attentively listening to the other members chatting but there was almost no intimate interaction or private exchange. This "keep your distance" reaction quickly sparked many mixed comments from fans.

The rumor of "rice is not good, soup is not sweet" between Phuong My Chi and Chu Phi Ca came from the first encounter of the two singers in the opening round of Sing! Asia. At that time, Phuong My Chi had a brave and emotional performance, winning a convincing victory over Chu Phi Ca with a difference of 16-8.

What caught the audience's attention more than anything was not only the result but Chu Phi Ca's unhappy expression, sighing right on stage after the defeat. Although there were no negative words uttered, that expression inadvertently created a wave of debate on social networks, many opinions said that the male singer showed a poor attitude of fair-play.

Tensions continued to escalate when in the next round, Phuong My Chi continued to win against Miyuna (Japan) with the performance of Rock Grains of Rice. In the comment, the male singer said that maybe Phuong My Chi had never heard Miyuma sing, "but in the end he received 12 votes from the online judges. She should be careful."

The peak of the controversy occurred in episode 4 when Phuong My Chi lost to Vuong Hoang Hao with a difference of 3-20, Chu Phi Ca expressed her joy as well as full of praise for the male singer who "defeated" the singer from Vietnam.

It can be seen that, despite receiving praise from the Chinese media, even winning some rounds, the name Phuong My Chi has not yet created an "explosion" like Chi Pu did two years ago. Why is that?

Chi Pu once participated in Pedal the Wind 2023, a program with a large media scale and wide spread in China as well as Asia. Pedal the Wind is not just an entertainment gameshow, but designed as a campaign to promote female artists from many countries, with a professional communication team from behind-the-scenes to social networking platforms... From the first episodes, Chi Pu's image appeared on newspapers as well as Chinese forums. Many people who don't follow the show also know her only thanks to the spread of the media.

Meanwhile, Phuong My Chi participated in the music contest held for the first time. Although it is professionally staged and epic, currently, it is not possible to confirm the exact effect that this program brings.

Chi Pu entered Pedal the Wind 2023 with the image of an idol. She is young, dances beautifully, sings progressively through each round – just enough to impress, and at the same time suits the tastes of Chinese audiences who love the model of Korean music groups. Chi Pu also showed her stage performance ability rather than pure vocal ability, but that is also what Pedal the Wind needs and the audience is waiting for.

Meanwhile, Phuong My Chi conquered with her voice and emotional depth, especially through songs with bold folk and honoring the beauty of Vietnam. Therefore, many of Phuong My Chi's performances scored points with Vietnamese audiences, garnering millions of views. However, this style is not easy to spread in the Chinese market.

Media expert Tran Hoai Linh also said that Chi Pu has made good use of the power of social networks. Every step she takes creates a trend, behind-the-scenes clips help keep the heat constant. Chi Pu's fan team also interacts evenly on Chinese social media platforms, helping the artist always appear in search boards.

Chi Pu once faced a lot of controversy when she decided to participate in a gameshow in China. It is these conflicting opinions that make her the focus of attention for a long time.

After many skepticism of domestic public opinion, Chi Pu set a very clear goal when participating in Pedal the Wind 2023. She stayed in China for 3 to 4 months, practiced hard, integrated with local artists, received invitations to cooperate, acted in films, advertised... So far, she has maintained a good relationship with Chinese producers and singers, showing a long-term serious orientation.

Meanwhile, Phuong My Chi received strong support from Vietnamese audiences, because of her pure, hardworking and talented image. She once said: "I want to go to Sing! Asia 2025 to sing Vietnamese songs, exchange with international artists, partly learn more from them, so that they can later contribute to the country."
