Li Xiaoran Wins First Round Championship on 'Sisters Who Make Waves 7', Netizens Cry 'Unfair' — 'Wishes on Post-It Notes' Becomes Biggest Winner, Pets Tseng Only 5th Place

‘Riding the Wind 2026’ (Sisters Who Make Waves 7) has just announced the 'Chengfeng Value' (popularity/power score) of the sisters after the first public performance, and surprisingly, the worse the singing performance, the better the results. The group performance of ‘Wishes on Post-It Notes’ was off-key throughout, and has already been dubbed by music reviewers as the 'first trainwreck of 2026', yet Li Xiaoran took the champion spot for the first public performance with a Chengfeng Value of 926. Another sister, Wang Meng, squeezed into third place with 915, making the ‘Wishes on Post-It Notes’ group the biggest winner in this first round.

Taiwanese stars: the ever-popular Pets Tseng ranked 5th, Cyndi Chaw (Jiang Yuchen), whose ex-husband stirred up some controversy, ranked 6th, Fan Weiqi was 9th, and Hsiao Chieh's awaiting one-on-one PK showdown with Vietnam's 'OST Queen' Trang Phap became a highlight of the show—but Hsiao Chieh only landed in 12th place while Xu Jie'er placed 18th.

After seeing the first round scores, netizens were full of sarcasm: “As expected, strength isn’t important, entertainment is above all?”, “Is there any justice left? ‘Wishes on Post-It Notes’ was sung like that, and already beating Trang Phap’s group was outrageous, but for Li Xiaoran to get first individually—plus Wang Meng from the same group with 915 votes, and Tang Yixin with 868, so by this count, the Li Xiaoran team ranking 6th overall doesn't make sense either?” Li Xiaoran, who won the first round, admitted her professionalism isn't strong and choked up, saying, “Being first means I have to withstand more storms, but I will take it on. We started from a lower baseline, and in the future, I’ll look up to the more professional sisters.”
