How did I become an F1 driver?

Afterwards, everyone exchanged phone numbers with Qin Miao. Of course, they all exchanged work numbers.

Now Qin Miao is also a person who needs two phone calls to handle her daily affairs conveniently. Thinking about it, she is a little proud.

And after Qin Miao and Mei Ben's staff finished exchanging phone calls, Qiu Meng also came over pushing the cart, and the timing was just right.

Qin Miao took advantage of the opportunity and introduced his girlfriend to the colleagues in the team.

For people with outstanding looks, as long as there is no hatred, most people will still have a certain liking after seeing them.

Then there is the distribution of small gifts.

Because there are too many things, Qiumeng doesn’t even know what’s in the box, so when colleagues get presents, it’s like opening a blind box. If appropriate, you can still exchange with colleagues around you.

After this wave of gifts was delivered, the attitude of everyone in the team towards Qin Miao was naturally a lot closer.

After all, no one will reject a colleague who seems to have no airs. The key point is that this colleague prepared a gift for you on the first day of work.

After we met, we didn’t go to dinner together. Meiben’s corporate culture is very loose, and the boss will not take the lead in occupying the employees’ daily rest time. All meals and dinners are voluntary.

If Qin Miao really wanted to invite his colleagues to dinner, he had to invite them one by one. If the other party agreed, they would go to eat together. If they didn't agree, no one would say anything.

After meeting Qin Miao, the staff members were busy with their own affairs. The old man also greeted Toto Qin Miao and left with his physical trainer, Angela.

The main purpose of his coming to the factory today was to meet Qin Miao's future teammates. After the purpose was achieved, the old man naturally left. He is different from Qin Miao. He has many endorsements and he is still very busy during this time. of.

After the old man and Angela walked out of the main gate of the Mercedes team, they walked towards a Maybach parked on the side of the road.

Although the old man has a Pagani Zonda and a Mercedes-AMG ONE specially customized for him by Mercedes, these two cars are okay off the track, but they are really not suitable for daily commuting.

If you really want to be comfortable, you have to use these commercial vehicles and high-end cars.

The two entered the car one after the other.

After fastening the seat belt, Hamilton suddenly asked:

"Angela, what do you think of Qin Miao?"

Angela briefly recalled the Qin Miao I saw in Mei Ben's factory today, as well as his behavior and expression:

"I don't think he's likely to be your fan. He was supposed to be acting on the occasion just now, but I don't think it's difficult to get along with him. He shouldn't be as lonely as the rumors in the paddock."

Hamilton said:
"I don't feel very good about him, I can't see through him..."

Angela was surprised:

"Why do you think so?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because of preconceived ideas..."

Hamilton did not go any further on this issue:

"Forget it, since the team has already made a decision, as a driver, I shouldn't express any more opinions. Let's see how this young man will perform on the field next season..."

……

After the old man and the others left, Toto was also busy, but Susan from the marketing department stopped Qin Miao.

"Qin, please wait a moment."

Qin Miao, who was about to leave, naturally stopped, turned to look at the director of the marketing department and asked curiously:

"Is there a problem?"

The other party smiled mysteriously and said:
"A small campaign that requires you to participate and takes about an hour of your time."

Anyway, it's early now, and Qin Miao's contract only reduces Qin Miao's media activities, not completely cancels Qin Miao's media activities, so Qin Miao needs to cooperate with the marketing department's work both emotionally and rationally.

So Qin Miao nodded and agreed to the other party's request without much consideration.

Then the three came to an open space on the side of the Meiben factory.

At this time, many staff members wearing Mercedes uniforms in this area are busy working around a black AMG GT.

Susan smiled and introduced:

"AMG GT Night Edition 2021 Dark Night Special Edition, this is the last two-door sports car of this model, and it has not been released yet. You just came, so I want you to come over and help take a promotional video for this car .”

Qin Miao nodded clearly, and then started her work with three parts apprehension, four parts curiosity, and three parts death.

However, the process was not complicated. Qin Miao simply put on some makeup, put on a new racing suit, and started filming the promotional video under the guidance of the staff.

Because he knew that this was a promotional video for this car, Qin Miao didn't pay much attention to the camera shots circling around him.

In this way, I turned seven or eight laps beside the racing car, did more than 20 sets of different movements under the guidance, put on makeup once, and went up and down on the car more than ten times. Finished, just one last shot.

Qin Miao didn't have any complaints either. After agreeing to Toto, Qin Miao knew that her future work and life would not only be driving, but also need to be exposed to the spotlight for a long time.

Qin Miao was well prepared for this.

In the last shot, Qin Miao needs to stand in front of this AMG GT, with his arms crossed, or pointing to a thumb, or doing something else. In short, he needs to make a gesture as the end of the video.

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Miao leaned against the door of the car very relaxedly, and then Erlang raised his legs, folded his hands on his chest, and his face was full of slack.

"Okay! This posture is good, keep your emotions~"

The on-site director's eyes lit up, and then he was about to start recording.

But at this moment, two "pops" sounded suddenly.

If it was in the United States, if you heard this sound suddenly, you might think that there was a gunfight somewhere, but Qin Miao, who grew up in China, subconsciously thought that someone was setting off a firecracker.

Until he found that there were ribbons gradually floating down from the sky.

At this time, there are Mercedes staff on both sides of me holding used ribbon buckets. At this time, the colorful sequins floating in the sky and the two sounds just now are obviously coming from these two things.

And until this time, Qin Miao also looked bewildered.

"what happened?"

And Susan appeared at this time, holding an extremely beautiful box with silver AMG fonts in her hand, and handed the box to Qin Miao.

It wasn't until this moment that Qin Miao realized what was about to happen.

Amidst the booing of the crowd, Qin Miao took the box, and then opened it again.

Inside the box lay two car keys quietly.

Qin Miao looked up and looked at Susan in a daze:

"This is?"

Susan pointed to this pure black AMG GT and said:

"Toto sent you the car, and we have already prepared the procedures and so on. You just need to sign it when the time comes."

Qin Miao has become accustomed to the operation of these team bosses who send cars to him at every turn, but if you send a car, you will send it. Why do you let me work around for a long time?
As if guessing what Qin Miao wanted to say, Susan explained:
"Although this is a small surprise for you, the video material I just shot for you will indeed be used as a promotion for this car."

"On top of that, we did a little documentary."

Speaking of which, Susan pointed to a Mercedes staff member who was always holding a handheld camera.

Qin Miao had noticed him a long time ago. After all, the filming team used big cameras, and he was the only one who used a hand-held camera.

At first, Qin Miao thought that he was also a member of the film crew, but now that he thinks about this guy's behavior, something is really wrong.

"What kind of documentary?"

Susan explained:
"It's a small documentary where I prepared a gift for you without telling you, and then recorded you from being cheated to cooperating with the work, and finally to the surprise moment when you received the gift. The audience likes this kind of video very much, so this Such videos often have a high click-through rate, which has a very positive effect on the image promotion of the team and drivers, and of course, it also has a positive effect on the promotion of the model."

After hearing this, Qin Miao nodded in understanding. Should I say that she is indeed the director of the propaganda department? After being told so, Qin Miao wanted to watch this documentary herself.

"Can you show me first?"

"Of course, it's just that the video needs to be edited. After we make the video, we will send you a copy as soon as possible. At that time, you can also post the video to your personal account.

But I think the top priority is not to watch the video, but to take your girlfriend to experience your new car. "

Qin Miao also followed suit.

I took my wife out for a walk in the car.

How should I put it, Qin Miao used to drive this car in the last race, and he was driving this car as a racing car at that time, and Qin Miao didn't have time to feel the road feedback brought to him by this car.

But now after driving this car on the street, Qin Miao feels that this is still a car designed for the track, and there is no problem driving on the relatively flat pavement, but once there is a car on the road Qin Miao could clearly feel any bumps.

To put it bluntly, the road feel feedback of this car is clear and sharp. To put it bluntly, the suspension is too stiff.

However, under normal circumstances, Qin Miao would not drive this car to and from get off work. After getting it, she should cover the car with car clothes and put it downstairs to eat ashes.

But after all, this is a sports car worth more than 100 million yuan. Even if Qin Miao is reluctant, he will not put it in an open-air environment. It will be exposed to wind, sun and rain. He should build a simple parking garage to put this car away. .

But that's all for the future...

Compared with driving, Qin Miao still prefers to ride a scooter to work at the Meiben factory.

Of course, if it rained when Qin Miao went to work, that would be a different matter.

After trying the test car, returning to the factory, and sincerely thanking the others, all the work of Qin Miao in Mei Ben came to an end today.

After folding up her two scooters and putting them in the trunk of her new car, Qin Miao drove back home.

Of course, after returning home, Qin Miao didn't forget to lift her friend down from upstairs and show off her new car in front of him.

After all, wealth does not return home, such as night walks in brocade clothes, if you have good things and don’t pretend to be in front of your friends, then the fun of getting good things will be sharply reduced by more than half.

Qiu Meng watched her man walking like a child, just smiled and shook her head, and went upstairs on her own.

After Zhou Guanyu received the call, he reluctantly went downstairs, and immediately saw an AMG GT parked at the door with the engine still on.

In fact, the difference between Qin Miao's car and the ordinary AMG GT is very small. The only difference is that there is no electric lift tail, but a fixed tail, and most of the exterior parts that can be seen on the body have become black.

Even the standard silver brake calipers have been swapped out for black.

Zhou Guanyu himself is not the one who lacks the money for a car, but Qin Miao's car is a gift from Mei Ben, which means something different.

So Qin Miao succeeded in pretending to be aggressive in front of Zhou Guanyu.

Of course, pretense also has a price.

Zhou Guanyu directly grabbed Qin Miao's key and got into the main driver.

After Qin Miao got it, she was not very willing to hit the gas pedal. After the car was in Zhou Guanyu's hands, she immediately started driving violently, and she didn't know how to be sympathetic.

……

Not long after Qin Miao returned, reports on Qin Miao's formal signing with Meiben gradually began to appear in the paddock, and as time went by, there were more and more reports in this regard.

It can be regarded as providing some rare entertainment and topics of discussion for F1 fans who have no games to watch, injecting some vitality into this boring winter break.

At the same time, along with the topic of Qin Miao joining Meiben, more topics emerged.

For example, where should Bottas go?

Is the joining of Qin Miao a choice made by Meiben to further expand its influence in the Chinese market?

Does Mercedes start to have internal political struggles like Ferrari, and Qin Miao's joining is the product of compromise after the political struggles of Mercedes?
Did Bottas have a rift with Toto, or did something unknown happen inside Mercedes that caused Toto to replace Pottas?

In short, all kinds of conspiracy theories have popped up during this period, and messy rumors are flying around.

In this period of time, only Mercedes did not make any mistakes in Bottas, and the news that Bottas won it with one year left in the contract is more interesting.

Discussion is unavoidable.

Even the three rookie drivers Mick Schumacher, Kakuda Yuki and Nikita Mazehei joined Qin Miao in the paddock, and even the return of Alonso did not cause much waves during this period.

On the one hand, these few were hanged and beaten by Qin Miao all the time in F2, and they couldn't hold their heads up under Qin Miao's suppression. Naturally, the attention they received could not be compared with Qin Miao, the F2 champion. On the one hand, the normal personnel replacement of other teams is simply not as shocking as Mercedes' pulling down a driver in his prime.

Of course, no matter how lively the public opinion in the foreign paddock is, it will not affect the domestic car fans who have three small beers a day and celebrate happily.

[In 2020, I can't stay for a day, and I will die if the competition in 21 years doesn't start! 】

【Not seeing Qin Miao's performance in Meiben makes me feel uncomfortable all over. I feel like there are ants crawling on my body. 】

[FIA!I suggest that the 21-year competition be held today, and I advise you not to be ignorant of good and evil]

[I want to watch the game!I want to watch the game! 】

[Mei Ben's ten-year old fan is here! ] (End of this chapter)
