The final week's test not only disrupted Jiang Feng's plan but also the plans of many other contestants. For those who knew they were just there to accompany the others, they thought it was time to go their separate ways and happily end this reality show that didn't offer money but could improve their restaurant's business. Suddenly, the production team told them, "Congratulations, you have one more real opportunity to showcase your talents. Please seize the opportunity for a true cooking competition."
To allow the contestants to fully adjust and prepare for this final test, the test was rescheduled from Sunday to the following Wednesday at ten in the morning. The location was a place Jiang Feng had never heard of, reportedly selected for the semifinals and finals, but used now for this test.
Thus, this last test seemed a bit like a warm-up for the semifinals and finals.
It also sparked a competitive spirit that was originally absent.
