After making trouble for a while, Qin Miao hurried back to the car home, put away the Pirelli championship hat that had been wet by Hamilton, and then put on a new set of Mercedes uniforms. After doing all this, Qin Miao took the He went with his team’s press officer Alyssa to accept a routine post-race interview.
The interview questions were easy to answer, and with Alyssa guiding him, Qin Miao didn't have to worry about saying the wrong thing. After answering a few basic questions, the interview process was over.
Although it was already early in the morning in China, Qin Miao knew that her mother must not have slept at this time, so when she walked to Room P after the interview, Qin Miao called her mother to tell her the good news.
Although her mother did not show any overly excited emotions during the communication with Qin Miao, Qin Miao could hear a hint of trembling in her mother's words. Presumably, her mother at this time saw her results. I'll be very excited too.
But in fact, the trembling in Qin Miao's mother's words was just because she accidentally poured too much hot water when soaking her feet and burned them...
Back at the car home, Qin Miao also called Qiu Meng and shared his joy after achieving good results with his girlfriend.
After checking in with the two most important women in his life, Qin Miao packed up his things and left the car home.
Mercedes' performance tonight is impressive enough. Toto has just said in the Mercedes work group that there will be a dinner party later. After all the Mercedes staff in Bahrain have completed the tasks at hand today, You can go and participate.
Those who don’t want to go will also receive corresponding bonuses.
When Qin Miao first knew that this party was a voluntary participation, he couldn't stop thinking about it. However, he was directly asked to participate by Toto, who had already figured out Qin Miao's character.
In the end, Qin Miao had no choice but to succumb to Toto's authority.
After leaving the paddock, Qin Miao and Barber got into the rented car and went to the venue of today's dinner.
On the way, Qin Miao took a look at the completion status of his system tasks.
Qin Miao completed the first task very well. He successfully scored points in the first grand prix of his career. He not only got a free attribute point for the team, but also received 160,000 lottery points.
After seeing these rewards, Qin Miao knew that the 10,000 lottery points corresponded to the points he gained on the field.
At the same time, the new lottery module has been unlocked, but I just don’t know what exactly can be drawn.
Qin Miao curiously opened this module and took a look. 160,000 points can be drawn 16 times, and unlike the colored draws, the highlight of this draw is that it is large in quantity, and naturally there is no special reward for ten consecutive draws.
Anyway, the system itself gave 160,000 lottery points, so Qin Miao conveniently drew 16 consecutive draws.
Different from the colored lottery system, this lottery involves arranging sixteen boxes in front of Qin Miao and then opening them all at once.
Most of them have a white background, and only one has a green background.
This green thing is also a very common thing, just a key.
Qin Miao knew the origin of the key when he paid attention to it.
This is the key to a container.
To be precise, it was an unclaimed container key that had been left in the port's container handling area.
No one knows what is inside, and no one knows where its owner has gone. After the container is not picked up beyond the time limit specified in the contract, the container becomes the property of the container company.
Then it was taken out for sale, and now it fell into Qin Miao's hands.
Qin Miao opened a blind box and opened a larger blind box.
After seeing the description of this thing, Qin Miao immediately became interested. This thing is very good whether he drives it by himself or gives it to his friends.
Except for this thing, other white items can only be regarded as ordinary commodities, such as a dozen Balenciaga pantyhose, two boxes of magic claws, a 3090 graphics card, a couple's Hanfu, a latest Huawei mobile phone, An iPhone, a $500 steam balance exchange card...
Qin Miao chewed on it. These things didn't look expensive, but they were still useful.
After reading the rewards given in task one, Qin Miao glanced at task two.
Qin Miao didn't feel that his performance on any day was good enough to complete that task.
And this is indeed the case. Although Qin Miao's defense is indeed eye-catching, due to insufficient audience voting in this game, the official directly canceled this innocuous honor.
So after the game, Qin Miao only received 15 points and a bonus of US$160,000 from the team. There were also some random little gifts given to Qin Miao by fans rather than system rewards.
During the dinner, Qin Miao said hello to Hamilton and Toto, then took a plate and got some junk food such as fried chicken and Coke and ran away to eat.
Now the team has arranged for Barber to control Qin Miao's eating habits. Qin Miao has not eaten these things for a long time, and now while Barber is chatting with his familiar colleagues, Qin Miao happens to eat some secretly.
Qin Miao had a delicious meal in the corner without being disturbed.
After eating and saying hello to Toto, Qin Miao was ready to leave.
Toto was a little surprised to see Qin Miao leaving so early: "There will be a gathering later that is not open to the public. I think you still need to attend these gatherings. You can get to know many different people at these meetings. .”
"Yes, Qin, getting to know some important people will be of great benefit to your future." Hamilton on the side also agreed.
But Qin Miao shrugged and said, "Forget it, I don't really like that kind of occasion. I would rather go home and watch a movie with my girlfriend than that."
Seeing Qin Miao's behavior, Toto stopped trying to persuade him. Moreover, Toto had already seen what kind of person Qin Miao was from Qin Miao's contract, so he just said "be careful on the way back" and let him go. Qin Miao left.
Nodding to Hamilton again, Qin Miao left Bahrain.
After all, Qin Miao is now an indispensable member of the Mercedes-Benz Racing Team. Even if he doesn't use Toto's private jet, after knowing that Qin Miao is planning to return to the UK, there will still be someone on the Mercedes-Benz Racing Team to help Qin Miao make arrangements. of the itinerary.
Although it's a pity that I can't fly on Toto's private jet, the first class cabin of the business jet is still quite comfortable.
By the time Qin Miao got home, it was already past 5 o'clock in the morning the next day.
After winning the F2 race, Qin Miao usually has extra free time and energy to do things that both of them love to do with his girlfriend when he returns home.
Now after finishing the race, Qin Miao hurried back home. Now Qin Miao no longer wants to do anything else and just wants to have a good sleep at home.
Running an F1 race is really tiring, even though Qin Miao's physical strength rating of 99 is still unbearable after finishing the race.
Of course, the main reason for this is that Qin Miao had to fly for a while to catch a plane.
In short, Qin Miao returned to his spiritual haven the day after the game and had a wonderful three days of rest.
Qin Miao has not even touched a car in the past three days, let alone working out.
After three days of rest, Qin Miao started to pick up fitness and racing skills again.
The second race this year was held in April, with a three-week break in between. During this period, Qin Miao basically didn't travel much, just traveling back and forth between his home and the team.
After physical training in the morning, Totto took me to the factory in the afternoon to run simulator data and practice my driving skills. I discussed with various departments the upgrade plan of the car and the tuning settings for the upcoming Imola Grand Prix.
Moreover, the possibility of rain on this track is very high, so in addition to continuing to hone his skills during this period, Qin Miao also frantically practiced the rain battle on the Imola track on the simulator.
This monotonous and repetitive life continued until Wednesday, April 13, the days before the start of the Imola Grand Prix.
It is worth mentioning that many episodes occurred during this period.
The first one was that Qiu Meng's work phone began to ring frequently again. Most of them were brands that wanted Qin Miao to endorse, both at home and abroad.
There are also invitation calls that want to invite Qin Miao to participate in some activities and become an on-site guest. In the entertainment industry, it is like asking for acupuncture, and you will be given a certain amount of money for participating in an event.
And this time is different from the past. Most of the parties who called Qiu Meng really wanted to cooperate with Qin Miao.
Qiu Meng screened some by herself, and then asked the Mercedes-Benz Racing Team's evaluation team to screen some. Finally, Qin Miao got three more endorsements.
Qin Miao has no other requirements in terms of endorsements. It doesn't matter whether there is a lot of money or not. The most important thing is that there are few things to do.
In addition to this incident, Boss Zhou also came to Brackley.
Boss Zhou saw that Qin Miao performed so well on the court, and watching the game on TV could no longer satisfy him. Although the current environment was not good, he still flew directly to the UK on a private plane, and then found Qin Miao through his address.
Qin Miao naturally exchanged pleasantries with the other party, and then stayed with the other party for a meal at home.
After that, Boss Zhou left. Although the other party's main purpose was to come and watch Qin Miao's game, he still had a certain industry in the UK.
On the one hand, everyone is here, so they definitely need to go and take a look. On the other hand, Boss Zhou also saw that Qin Miao was really busy during this period. If he stayed at Qin Miao's house, he was suspected of being a light bulb for the young couple. , and if he is here, Qin Miao will not be able to concentrate on training.
So after agreeing to meet in Italy, Boss Zhou left.
The third one is Qin Miao's little things. They were mailed as gifts as Qin Miao guessed.
It's just that they were sent to Mercedes headquarters, and then the front desk staff at the headquarters handed these gifts to Qin Miao.
There is nothing to say about the time after that, just continue working and living.
After these episodes, Qin Miao took the lead in arriving at the venue of this year's second race: Imola, Italy.
In this race, Qin Miao came to the track one day earlier than before.
Mainly because in the past, Qin Miao would always feel a little rushed when arriving at the track and not have enough time. Now that he arrived at the track one day in advance, Qin Miao also had more time to prepare and rest.
On Wednesday, I mainly rested in the hotel, took Qiu Meng to visit the Imola track, and invited Leclerc to have a meal with me. The whole day on Wednesday passed like this.
On Thursday, Qin Miao went to the FIA's small black room after completing his daily training in the morning.
Although Qin Miao's defense in the last Bahrain Grand Prix did not violate the rules, his behavior of squeezing Verstappen off the track was suspected of dangerous driving, so Qin Miao was summoned for a meeting, and FIA officials investigated Qin Miao. A wave of ideological education.
But this time of ideological education is not difficult.
In the afternoon, Qin Miao came to the pre-match conference room prepared by the FIA for the drivers.
This is held before every game.
Qin Miao came relatively early this time, so after arriving here, there was only one Alonso in the conference room.
When Brother Tou saw Qin Miao come in, he nodded to Qin Miao and said hello: "Qin, good afternoon."
"Good afternoon." Qin Miao nodded in response, shook hands with Brother Tou, and patted each other's shoulders.
This is basically how every paddock worker and driver shakes hands and says hello.
After shaking hands, Qin Miao took the opportunity to sit down next to Brother Tou.
After Qin Miao sat down, Brother Tou turned his head and looked at Qin Miao and said, "I watched the replay of the Bahrain game, and I have to say, your defense is really eye-catching."
"Really? Haha, I think I still have a lot of room for improvement." Qin Miao said modestly.
Alonso has met many Chinese people and is already familiar with the humility engraved in the bones of the Chinese people, although at this time Qin Miao seems to be hiding something.
However, Alonso didn't care. Instead, he adjusted his sitting posture, faced Qin Miao and asked curiously: "I carefully studied your defense against Verstappen, and you gave up your position to Verstappen twice. In each operation, the space given to Verstappen is very limited, but it does not violate the FIA's defensive rules. How do you specifically define and judge whether your actions are legal on the field?"
Qin Miao was not too surprised by Alonso's problem. He knew that the defensive ability on the field was completely based on experience and accumulation. If he wanted to improve his ability, he would not be ashamed to find a driver who was more capable than himself to learn from. A relatively simple and easy way.
Thinking of this, Qin Miao was a little excited. After all, this was regarded as being recognized by a top driver.
As for Alonso's question, Qin Miao was not stingy, and there was nothing to be stingy about. Qin Miao told the truth: "I usually rely on feeling."
This is really not Qin Miao showing off in front of Alonso. His grasp of defensive balance on the track really depends on what he said.
And Tou Ge is also a talented person. Maybe for ordinary people, Qin Miao's answer is completely perfunctory, but for a driver like Tou Ge, sometimes you rely on the feeling of the car when racing, and some people even rely on the feeling of the car. It feels a lot faster to drive the car than if they were scripted to drive it. (End of chapter)
