On August 13th, the weather was fine, and the qualifying competition for the South Zhili region of the Shaoping Four-Year Middle School Formula Student Championship began.
This is the final qualifying round and the only main draw. This is different from the competition system in other places.
South Zhili's competition method is that the first four games are just warm-ups, and the final game determines the outcome. Although the Longjiang team took first place in the first four games, the points were not enough for the team to advance directly. Only the one who wins today's game will qualify for the finals.
"So, this last one is the most important."
Qi Yuan was fanning beside him: "For the previous games, just go with the formality. Today's is the most important."
"Yes, yes, it all depends on you, big brother." Han Xingzhi fanned Wen Yuan beside him, but the wind from the fan could still blow from time to time.
Shangluo always felt a little awkward. The weather was not very hot. Two people were hanging around next to him. He picked up a small steamed bun and was fanned by them.
"However, I still want to ask, why do we have to wait until now to determine the winner? Don't we have a points competition here?"
"Actually, there was at the beginning." Qi Yuan replied, "It's just that the competition here is too fierce, and each company will have its own big move. But after the finals, the intensity of competition will rise to a whole level. So. Everyone hopes to save the ultimate move to the end as much as possible, and over time the competition system has been adjusted to this, so that everyone can warm up. If every game counts points, every game must go all out, and the whole set will be completed. I lost all my money."
"In the final analysis, it's because of limited strength." Han Xingzhi shook his head, "Most of the time, with the power of a county, there is no way to show outstanding performance in every aspect, so we can only save a big move. This is A method without a solution is not a good tactic. If we had the choice, of course we would choose a car that can do everything. But in terms of the strength of a county, being good at everything means being sparse in everything."
"But..." Shangluo remembered what he saw yesterday and the information sent from Wudang. "Judging from the current situation, the performance of the first-class fleet has reached an incredible level. Even the 'amplification move' is even very powerful." It is difficult to keep up with the normal performance of those first-class vehicles. For example, after the gas turbine of the Xuantan Tiger is started, even if the Rockets really turn on the solid rocket, they may not be able to keep up with their speed."
Qi Yuan sighed: "Of course that's not possible. How can one county fight the entire North Zhili?"
"By the way, how did we save up?" Shangluo asked her, "Just exclude me first - Wudang thinks that our foundation is quite good, and they didn't include me when they gave this evaluation. So, aren’t we also one county?”
"That's what it is." Qi Yuan replied, "We have completely changed our approach: all resources are used to pile materials, without considering the driver's adaptability. The performance of this car seems outstanding because Apart from you, only powerful thunder cultivators like Wen Yuan can open it. Therefore, the information they collected from the beginning was not comprehensive enough. When calculating the strength of [Tiandao Shadow Puppet], we cannot exclude Qi Practitioners. , this was part of the design from the beginning.”
"I wonder if they have already considered it," Shangluo touched his chin, "Maybe they define 'A-class cars' as seed cars that are 'capable of becoming a third-generation formula racing car.' In other words, they are Consider whether this car can fully utilize the strength of the Qijishi - as for what the real third-generation Formula 3 car is, it depends on the result of the final."
"..." Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment, she was a little scared, "This is really very dangerous. We were only a little bit off this route at first, but now that we think about it, if we didn't take this risky road, we would almost be gone. There is no chance of victory. Even reaching the final, seeing other teams can only sigh in despair."
"There was actually no chance of victory." Han Xingzhi looked at her and said, "If Shangluo hadn't happened to join the team and offered a buy-one-get-one-free match, we might have had to give up."
"It sounds like I sent it as a gift." Wen Yuan was eating breakfast at the other end, "Obviously I am the driver and Shangluo is the substitute."
"My eldest brother is the technical director, but he doesn't want to drive."
"Yeah, but you're really proud of me for asking for so much Jusu." Although he wanted to say something, the jar of Jusu in the corner had suppressed all his words. Because the chance of victory has already been established.
"Mr. Wen Ge, is this really good? Does asking such a question hurt them too much? I remember that Wen Yuan also participated in the competition this time?"
In the box of the viewing platform, Wen Zhong was reading the briefing sent by the organizing committee. Other key personnel of the organizing committee.
Except for the Longjiang team, all other teams were circled in red because no team completed the integration of spiritual energy equipment and alcohol within the 24 hours of preparation time.
This also means that the Longjiang team has already established a chance of victory before the start of the game, and there is no suspense in this game.
"Um"
This surprised Wen Zhong. He thought that at least a few teams could pass, but he didn't expect that only one team could pass, and all other teams failed. This topic is indeed too difficult to solve.
"But." He put down the briefing, "You must remember that formula racing is never a passing test, but a selection test. We set the questions not to issue certificates to everyone, but to select the candidates who can best represent South Korea. The participating teams from Zhili. Have you all seen the information of other teams?"
Everyone nodded.
"The questions they are given in reality are much more difficult than the questions we are given. The boys over there in Beizhi will not make the questions easy just because we set them up. The reality is that we just need to 'hurt ourselves' now. Let them feel the difficulty of the finals in advance. Otherwise, they will be really hurt if they are left far behind after entering the finals. The difficulty should not be lowered next year, but should be improved."
"But next year, those members of the Longjiang team will graduate, and there are also some talents in other teams that are withering. I'm afraid no one will be able to pass by then."
"Then don't leave anyone alone. Some of the ghostly children have already gone directly to prepare for next year's competition." He had just seen that the High School Affiliated to the Imperial Academy had abandoned the competition this year. He didn't know where he got the news and knew that it would definitely be held this year. Can't pass.
"Anyway, it's up to us to apply some pressure this time. If you boil the frogs in warm water, they will be boiled to death. They have to be scalded before they know how to jump out."
