"Ah, I guessed it, you must be the first person to arrive." Seeing Qin Miao push the door and walk in, Lawson's face was full of such understanding and a kind of relief after meeting an outstanding junior. smile.
Although Qin Miao did not have competitions to run during this period like other members of Ferrari's youth training, there are competition rankings and competition data that can be used as a reference for strength.
But compared to those youth training players, Qin Miao trains in Ferrari's internal gym every day without hesitation. He has not slacked off even a day in the past four months.
It’s nothing to insist on exercising for one day, and most people can do it if they grit their teeth for a month.
Rain or shine, he has not missed a single day of training in four months. This perseverance and character still make Lawson feel commendable.
Moreover, Qin Miao's performance on the Ferrari F1 team's simulator has also made significant progress. Qin Miao even contributed a lot to Ferrari's aerodynamic package upgrade.
Therefore, Qin Miao's growth and efforts during this period were noticed by many people, and Lawson was naturally one of them.
But Lawson also discovered Qin Miao's shortcomings, that is, Qin Miao was somewhat withdrawn.
Although Qin Miao has not worked with other Ferrari youth training players, there is a fixed gathering within the Ferrari youth training camp every month. All Ferrari youth training players and staff will participate. The purpose is very simple, which is to help Young people should broaden their network and enhance the relationship between Ferrari's reserve forces.
But in such gatherings, Qin Miao always seemed alone.
After the banquet begins, he will always find a plate to put food on, bring a bottle of juice, and find a place to eat and drink where no one will disturb him, just like an outsider.
In fact, Qin Miao was very interested in this party at the beginning. He asked Qiu Meng to help him choose a suitable suit, and went to the party among his peers in high spirits.
Then, Qin Miao was disgusted.
It cannot be said that the plot was reflected in reality, because these people did not ridicule or laugh at Qin Miao.
Those players whose names Qin Miao couldn't quite name responded to Qin Miao's kind exchanges and polite greetings. The most common response was to ignore them, and to ignore them nakedly.
No matter what Qin Miao said, they just ignored Qin Miao as if they didn't hear him.
I found three or four people in a row, and they all had the same attitude.
Qin Miao soon knew the general reason for this situation.
It's just that in their view, he has no power and no achievements, but it happens that such a powerless and no achievements person has become a simulator test driver for the Ferrari F1 team. This makes them feel dissatisfied. But they had no way to argue with people from the Ferrari F1 team, so naturally they could only vent their resentment on themselves.
Qin Miao's guess was pretty accurate. They just wanted to give Qin Miao a blow.
However, they actually didn't want to go too far. Qin Miao came over and bowed his head, bowing to the dock. From now on, he would be more honest, keep his posture lower, and just follow the lead of the seniors.
But who is Qin Miao? He is a young man himself. Because he is very talented, he is inevitably a little arrogant.
Although it's not like everyone's nostrils are turned upward, at least the arrogance hidden in his bones cannot be concealed.
Why the hell do you bunch of rotten fish and shrimps actually make me bow my head and admit my mistake? I can QNMD.
You can play by yourselves, I won't wait for you anymore.
Guys are here to learn and hone their own abilities, not to flatter others.
After this party, if Lawson invites Qin Miao to the party again, Qin Miao will no longer actively communicate with these people at the party, and he will dress very casually, just a Ferrari overalls and a pair of simple sweatpants.
You guys talk about yours, and I’ll take advantage of this once-a-month gathering to eat more.
Rather than saying that Qin Miao was isolated by others, it is better to say that Qin Miao isolated herself.
This was quite a headache for Lawson. He had also tried to persuade him, but he couldn’t say it was useless, he could only say it was of no use at all.
Qin Miao's attitude was very firm: I don't like the other party's arrogance and seniority-based attitude. They and I are not the same people. It is best to stay away from each other until death.
Lawson thought about it for a while. Anyway, Qin Miao was in a competitive relationship with other Ferrari youth training players. If the relationship was not good, it would be bad, so he simply ignored it.
"Mr. Lawson, do you have anything to do with me?" Qin Miao came to Lawson's office and found a place to sit down.
Just like a good student will have some privileges from his teacher, a driver like Qin Miao who is extremely talented at first glance will naturally receive special care from Lawson. From this point of view, Lawson will deal with him completely according to Qin Miao's wishes. The clues can be seen in the relationship with other young drivers in the Ferrari youth academy.
"Lubos should have told you." Lawson picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "The season is coming to an end, everyone is busy, and we are no exception.
A week later we will have an internal competition, the competition venue is Fiorano, this competition is very important, the results and performance of the competition determine whether you will get a seat in the high-level formula next season, of course, if If you want to drive the 24 Hours of Le Mans, we also have a team with a good relationship. For this competition, you can choose a GT3 model to compete. In the end, we will show your results to those teams. I believe that with your ability and our operation , it is not difficult to get a driver's spot in the Le Mans 24 Hours team. "
At this time, Lawson didn't even wait for the other youth training drivers to come over and had already started to tell Qin Miao about the main arrangements for the next period. It was obvious that he really valued Qin Miao.
But after saying that, Lawson changed his tune: "Although you now have the ability to drive a GT3 class car to compete for championships, you can't even drive a car in the Hyper car class. I believe there is also this class." The team wants you.
However, I still recommend that you give formula racing a try. If you perform well, I am sure to get you an F2 seat.
I'm not saying Le Mans is bad, I just think your talent shines brighter in Formula One than Le Mans. "
Qin Miao was already excited when she heard Lawson say that she could join the GT3 team. Even the fact that she could drive a Hyper car made Qin Miao really excited for a while.
Qin Miao originally wanted to say that he would just drive GT3, but when he heard Lawson say that he could help him get an F2 seat, Qin Miao became energetic at that moment.
Qin Miao has experienced F4, F3, and F2. He clearly knows that formula racing, a speed machine designed for the track, is more fun to drive than GT3. He came to Ferrari with the intention of driving F2 for a few seasons.
Now that the opportunity was so nakedly placed in front of Qin Miao, how could Qin Miao not be excited?
"Which F2 team is it specifically? Can you tell me the details?" Qin Miao asked.
Lawson waved his hands helplessly: "I don't know now, because many F2 teams don't know that there is a person like you. Although your performance was amazing when testing at Prema Racing, you were driving F3 after all, and Prema was in F3. It is also a very competitive team.
There are many strong drivers in their team, but I feel like they don’t care too much about you. In the last few phone calls between me and the team leader of Prema Racing, the other party has not asked about you.
So you still have to show an eye-catching performance in this internal test.
It depends on which F2 teams are interested in you then. I believe your girlfriend will definitely receive a lot of calls by then. "
Qin Miao understood that everything would be revealed in the competition, but Qin Miao still asked curiously: "Can I ask what kind of car we are driving during the competition?"
Logically speaking, it is not convenient to disclose these things, but Lawson did not shy away from it: "If you want to participate in a formula race, you will be given an F3, and you will have one day to debug your car before the race starts. , you can ask someone to help you debug the vehicle, or you can ask our internal Ferrari engineers to help you debug it.”
"If you want to go to Le Mans, you have more choices. We can provide cars in several categories."
…
Qin Miao came so early that after Lawson finished saying what he wanted to express, it was not even 11 a.m., and other riders were still training.
After the chat, Qin Miao stayed bored in Lawson's office waiting for other drivers to arrive.
Seeing Qin Miao playing with her mobile phone boredly in his office, Lawson asked curiously: "What do you usually do in your free time after completing your training?"
When Qin Miao heard this question, she couldn't help but think of Sister Qin's face and snacks. After thinking about it, she said: "It depends on the situation. If nothing happens, I will go home to accompany my girlfriend. More often, I will go Visiting the F1 team’s factory.”
Hearing this, a strange look flashed in Lawson's eyes: "Then you go first and go about your own business."
Qin Miao was stunned: "Aren't we going to have a meeting?"
Lawson waved his hand: "Anyway, I have just told you what to say in the meeting. After finishing what to say in the meeting, it will be me, the person in charge, who will help those young people give some suggestions. I believe you already have some ideas in your mind." answer, and besides, you and them are not dealing with each other, so you feel uncomfortable leaving you here.
Geniuses always have some privileges, go ahead..."
Qin Miao himself was resistant to things like meetings, so now that Lawson had let him go, he was naturally happy to be at peace.
However, after getting a chance to rest today, Qin Miao did not go to Sister Qin for food as planned at the beginning, but planned to go home directly.
It is worth mentioning that when Qin Miao came out of Lawson's office and went down the stairs, he saw an acquaintance who could not be regarded as an acquaintance.
Mick Schumacher, son of Michael Schumacher.
This position within Ferrari is that of the true prince, because too many senior executives within Ferrari are familiar with his father, and can even be said to have a close relationship.
Qin Miao's first impression of him was not very good, because when Zhou Guanyu was still in the Ferrari youth training, during an F2 race, his teammate Mick knocked Zhou Guanyu directly off the track, causing Zhou Guanyu to lose his A podium finish in that race, but the opponent received no penalties after that.
After this incident, Zhou Guanyu completely fell out with his teammate Mick Schumacher, which was also the trigger for Zhou Guanyu to leave Ferrari.
Therefore, Qin Miao, who had a good relationship with Zhou Guanyu, naturally did not have a good impression of Mick after learning about this incident. Coupled with the exclusion of other drivers in Ferrari's youth training, Qin Miao's impression of Mick became even worse.
Naturally, after seeing each other, Qin Miao maintained his usual attitude towards other Ferrari youth training drivers, which was to ignore them as passers-by.
Mick was not surprised to see Qin Miao. What surprised him was that the meeting was about to start soon. Why was Qin Miao walking outside at this time? Even if he wanted to go to the toilet, he would not be walking this way. Direction.
However, Qin Miao obviously didn't want to solve Mick's doubts. He went downstairs directly, stepped on a pink blue electric scooter and walked away.
This electric scooter was bought by Qiu Meng. It was originally used by this girl to go shopping for groceries, but Qin Miao took a liking to this convenient means of transportation at a glance.
Driving this thing is much more convenient than driving Qin Miao's 488. On the one hand, you don't have to worry about having nowhere to park, and on the other hand, it is easy to drive. You can stand up and turn the switch and you can go. In addition, this thing is light and has no parking space. After you pick up the battery, you can take it home for charging. After Qin Miao fell in love with it, it naturally became his best choice for short-distance transportation.
After returning home, Qin Miao immediately started his journey to gain proficiency on the American circuit.
Qin Miao's home uses simulator equipment that can be purchased on the market. However, because it was prepared by Ferrari, the original logo of the brand disappeared and was replaced by Ferrari's own logo. However, the simulator's The performance and parameters are the same as those of simulators available on the market.
The difference from before is that the program Qin Miao uses now is no longer ACC. The software Qin Miao uses at this time is the personal version of the simulator developed by Ferrari itself.
Compared with the one that Qin Miao uses daily in the team, the personal version has many functions. It cannot be used without castration, because without castration, ordinary computers on the market simply cannot run this thing.
Moreover, the simulators used by drivers to practice their driving skills do not require so much data.
In fact, this simulator is not much better than Assetto Corsa. After all, the game maps are the same. The difference is that the simulator can well display the characteristics and details of Ferrari's supercars and F1 racing cars.
At this time, Qin Miao's proficiency in the American Circuit has reached 17. Qin Miao's next goal is very simple, to increase his proficiency in the American Circuit to 100 and get the last piece of the purple tenth puzzle.
Then use the ten consecutive purple draws to give yourself a boost of strength before the game starts.
