Style: Gaming Author: lqlianqingWords: 4331Update Time: 24/01/11 09:10:35
Qin Miao does not have as complicated emotions as Zhou Guanyu, although Qin Miao does not have such a literary idea as "separation is for a better reunion".

But the longing for a new life made Qin Miao ignore the slight sadness when he was separated from his friends, and Qin Miao knew that sooner or later, he would meet Zhou Guanyu in the paddock.

While at the airport, Qin Miao called her mother.

After all, after signing the contract, my life has fundamentally changed.

The original established track had already deviated from the path set by his mother the moment the system appeared, and started running uncontrollably towards another path that no one had ever thought of.

But this time the communication with my mother was not as smooth as before.

In the past, whether it was to play outside for a few more days, make a sudden fortune, or prepare to travel abroad, my mother's attitude was extremely open-minded. After all, it was during the summer vacation, so there was no need to delay anything. If you wanted to go and play, then go.

But knowing that Qin Miao has signed a contract with Ferrari, he may have to stay abroad for a year, or even longer, so that he may not be able to go to college.

Qin Miao's mother expressed extremely strong objections.

Even if Qin Miao explained that the person he signed a contract with was the famous Ferrari, the same Ferrari that produced his own 488.

But her mother still objected. Even if Qin Miao said that the contract had been signed, Qin Miao's mother also said that the contract could be broken.

But Qin Miao also has something he wants to insist on. He feels that his mother does not know his current strength and talent, so she opposes his development abroad.

But Qin Miao's mother is not thinking about whether Qin Miao can become famous outside. What she thinks about is that the career of driving a racing car is too dangerous. No matter how much money she makes, Qin Miao's life is not safe for her. important.

Neither of them could convince the other for a while, and they were gradually beginning to quarrel.

Seeing that the relationship between the two was about to reach a deadlock, Qiu Meng finally stood up, took Qin Miao's cell phone and started chatting with Qin Miao's mother.

Qin Miao didn't know exactly what they talked about, but after Qiu Meng returned the phone, the attitude of the mother on the other end of the phone softened a lot.

Without making any excessive demands, the mother's voice on the other end of the phone just said with some complicated emotions: "Take care of yourself and Qiu Meng, and pay attention to safety."

"……good."

After that, her mother hung up the phone, while Qin Miao looked at her cell phone in silence.

After settling his mother's matter, Qin Miao reported good news to Boss Zhou.

After all, Boss Zhou can be said to be one of the main contributors to Qin Miao's move to Ferrari. Coupled with the 20 million free sponsorship he gave, after such a big event happened, Qin Miao knew that he would tell the other party both emotionally and rationally.

Qin Miao originally wanted Qiu Meng to tell Boss Zhou about this matter. After all, with his emotional intelligence, Qin Miao was a little worried that he would say something rude.

However, Qiu Meng said that it would be better for Qin Miao to talk about this kind of thing himself, so as to appear sincere.

After the call was connected, Boss Zhou's side was just as Qin Miao expected. Nothing happened. He was playing games in his store.

When he suddenly learned that Qin Miao had actually joined Ferrari's youth training, Boss Zhou on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a while.

Then he asked in a tone full of disbelief: "Xiao Qin, are you sure you are not kidding me?"

Qin Miao said helplessly: "Uncle Zhou, there is no need for me to tease you about this matter. Really, Qiu Meng and I are at the airport now preparing to fly directly to Emilia Romagna, Italy, where the Emilia Romagna event will take place. The place where the Grand Prix is ​​held is also where Ferrari’s headquarters is in Maranello.”

Boss Zhou on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then uttered two words that Qin Miao didn't expect: "Awesome."

"But... didn't you just take Qiu Meng out to watch an F1 Grand Prix? How did you become Ferrari's youth training driver?" Obviously, the development of the situation exceeded Boss Zhou's expectations and made him For a while, I couldn't accept the reality.

After a while, Boss Zhou on the other end of the phone said: "Although I still find it a bit unbelievable, I don't think what you said is false... Well, I will invest another 50 million to cover the next two years. You will be sponsored as an individual driver for 2 years. When you are free, you can return to China and help our company shoot a promotional video.

"Uncle Zhou, I'm not here to attract investment now. The main reason is that I feel that you have helped me a lot along the way. With such a big thing happening, I feel it is necessary to tell you good news." Qin Miao was speechless.

"...Okay." Boss Zhou didn't force it.

At this moment, Boss Zhou gradually came to his senses after being surprised, and then suddenly said: "Xiao Qin, is there a photo of the contract you signed? If not, take a photo, black out your personal information and send it to Me, I’ll use it to show off!”

After speaking, in order to improve Qin Miao's work efficiency, Boss Zhou hung up the phone directly.

When Qiu Meng communicated with Qin Miao's mother, she took a photo of Qin Miao's contract to prove the authenticity of the matter, so there was no need to take out the contract again and take photos. She could edit it directly on her phone and edit it. Qin Miao's personal information was blacked out and sent to Boss Zhou.

The other party responded with a smiley face, an obvious middle-aged and elderly chat style.

Afterwards, Qin Miao discussed another matter with Qiu Meng, which was that he had another driver contract. If he had two contracts, would it affect his future career plans.

Qiu Meng actually doesn't understand these things, but you can ask Zhou Guanyu this question. After all, he is also in this circle, and he should have a deeper understanding of these contracts and other matters than the two of them.

The final answer I got from Zhou Guanyu was simple: there would be no impact. Anyway, the contract had no binding force on Qin Miao. Zhou Guanyu had signed that kind of contract before. If he didn't want it anymore, just call him to terminate the contract.

After hanging up the phone with Zhou Guanyu, Qiu Meng decisively called the China GT team whose name Qin Miao didn't even remember, and then terminated Qin Miao's contract.

After some operations, the time was almost up and the two of them boarded the plane.

On the plane, Qin Miao took a look at his attributes for the first time in a long time.

Name: Qin Miao

Age: 18

Overall rating: 58.4 → 64.4 (+6)

Physical strength: 79→82 (+3)

Mentality: 65→70 (+5)

Stability: 78→80 (+2)

Ranking ability: 42→55 (+13)

Starting ability: 59→60 (+1)

Race long distance: 50→60 (+10)

Tire protection ability: 51→55 (+4)

Rain battle ability: 21→22 (+1)

Attack ability: 60→72 (+12)

Defensive ability: 79→88 (+9)

In addition to the improvement of these attributes, Qin Miao also increased the proficiency of Silver Stone to 160 and won a purple lottery.

He has such a high proficiency simply because Qin Miao spends all his racing training days on the Silverstone track. Naturally, his proficiency increases faster at Silverstone.

In addition, at the Baku circuit, Qin Miao unknowingly raised his proficiency to 121 while fighting with Zhou Guanyu, and also won a purple lottery.

Therefore, Qin Miao knew that as long as it was on a track related to F1 grand prix, Qin Miao could get a purple lottery chance by improving his proficiency.

It is worth mentioning that with Zhou Guanyu as a training target, Qin Miao's defensive ability, which was originally stuck at 79 points, made a major breakthrough and improved to 88 points.

It has become Qin Miao's highest rated attribute, approaching the 90-point mark.

The most intuitive feeling of improving the score is that when the two first started practicing offense and defense, Qin Miao could do it if he wanted to guard Zhou Guanyu, but he would inevitably be distracted and lose more speed, and he might also be under pressure from Zhou Guanyu. Too large and errors may occur.

After Qin Miao's defensive ability increased to 88 points, Qin Miao felt as if he had instantly opened up the two channels of Ren and Du. Facing Zhou Guanyu's attack, Qin Miao could defend with ease.

The speed will not drop too much just because someone attacks from behind.

The effect of this change on Zhou Guanyu is that he feels that the difficulty of catching up with Qin Miao has not changed much. Qin Miao is still not as good as him in terms of long-distance rhythm, but if he attacks Qin Miao and fails once, he will be defeated. Qin Miao opened a long distance, and it would take him a long time to regain the distance before launching an attack.

Secondly, Qin Miao's ability to withstand pressure is stronger. No matter how tightly she sticks to him or how much pressure she puts on him, Qin Miao's driving will not be greatly deformed.

So much so that during the last two days of playing on the simulator, Zhou Guanyu complained more than once that Qin Miao's defense was like a turtle shell.

It is worth mentioning that because he knew that Qin Miao would have to undergo a test after going to Maranello, during the last track day, Zhou Guanyu specially lent his F2 to Qin Miao for a session. .

As for the effect...it can only be said that the focus is on participation.

Because Qin Miao was not familiar with Zhou Guanyu's car at all, and it was the car that Zhou Guanyu wanted to compete with, Qin Miao did not dare to drive too fast. If he hit Qin Miao, he would be sorry for Zhou Guanyu.

So after feeling the surging power of the F2 car and experiencing the cornering G-force intensity that is superior to that of the F3, one quarter is almost over.

As for the lap time...it was only one quarter and Qin Miao didn't push hard at all, so it was naturally very average.

So although Renault's people deliberately observed Zhou Guanyu's friend, they didn't find anything shining in Qin Miao, so they didn't pay attention.

As for other attribute points that have broken through the bottleneck of 79 points, there are two points: physical strength and stability.

There is nothing to say about physical strength. As long as they train with Zhou Guanyu, Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu's training volume will basically increase exponentially.

Although they were as tired as dead dogs after training, with the maintenance of health care medicine, neither Qin Miao nor Zhou Guanyu's bodies suffered from overstrain due to the sudden increase in training volume.

The high-intensity training naturally made the two people's physical fitness improve by leaps and bounds.

After driving a few F4 sessions in Shanghai, Qin Miao was so tired that she almost couldn't even get out of the car.

But now, Qin Miao ran F3 for a day, and when he came down, he couldn't even get his clothes wet with sweat.

The last point is stability. Originally, this attribute was very close to the limit. Qin Miao didn't feel any bottleneck. As he trained and trained, this attribute broke through naturally.



The flight didn't take long. After landing, we went through customs and picked up our luggage.

After leaving the airport, the two of them saw a man waiting at the exit holding a sign with [Qin Miao] written in Chinese.

The person holding the sign was a young man who was dressed casually and looked to be in his mid-twenties.

Qin Miao brought Qiu Meng closer to him. The other person had obviously seen Qin Miao's photo. When he noticed Qin Miao coming over, he immediately smiled and waved to Qin Miao.

"Mr. Qin Miao? I knew you were coming today. After checking your flight information, Mr. Lawson asked me to pick you up." The other party greeted Qin Miao familiarly.

"I am Lobos Tran, and I will be your physical trainer for the next year, and possibly even longer."

Only now did Qin Miao have time to take a closer look at the appearance of the person in front of him. He had black curly hair. Many Italians Qin Miao had seen had this kind of curly hair, including Binotto and Lawson.

Lubos's appearance is relatively ordinary, his movements are relatively large and frequent, and his behavior is very youthful.

He is a little taller than Qin Miao, about 1.8 meters, and the clothes he wears are very common short-sleeved shirts and shorts.

"Hello." Qin Miao shook hands with the other party politely, and then introduced to Lubos: "This is my girlfriend, Qiu Meng."

After the two parties got to know each other, Qin Miao asked curiously: "Where are we going now? Are we going directly for testing?"

"No, no, of course not. The fatigue during the journey will affect your performance to a certain extent, so there is no trial training in our schedule today. Our main schedule today is to arrange for you and Ms. Qiu Meng. Regarding accommodation, we will then visit the Ferrari company, factory, and our museum in Maranello." As Lubos walked, he introduced today's itinerary to the two of them like a tour guide.

The time it takes to drive from the airport to Ferrari's headquarters in Maranello is about the same as the time it takes Qin Miao to fly from the UK to Italy.

After two hours on the plane and more than an hour in the car, Qin Miao didn't feel too tired after arriving at the place, but he didn't have much interest in looking at the surrounding scenery.

Maranello is not a big city. It was not famous at all before. It is world-famous simply because it is the hometown of Enzo Ferrari, the founder of Ferrari.

Ferrari's factory and the F1 team's headquarters are also located here.

There are no high-rise buildings around Maranello. Most of the houses are single-family houses, and the whole thing looks like a foreign countryside.

However, the exotic customs here are quite attractive to the two foreigners, Qin Miao and Qiu Meng.
