How did I become an F1 driver?

Chapter 208 Chapter 206: Birthday Gift (6K, plus 1420 updates)

No matter how you say Qin Miao has a physical attribute of 99, he won't be tired when running.

Zhou Guanyu didn't run a few steps before he was caught by Qin Miao and kicked in the butt.

Although the two of them just wanted to kick each other to the point of paralysis, after the quarrel was over, the two of them were able to go back to the hotel arm-in-arm, laughing and joking.

Although Qin Miao made a joke when talking to Zhou Guanyu, he did think about bringing Zhou Guanyu with him during his rest time or daily practice.

Qin Miao did say this on the way back, but Zhou Guanyu didn't say anything and just ignored it.

After returning to the hotel, the two of them stopped playing high-intensity games together. They were both tired after a long day of games and activities, and finally went to a friend's house to play.

Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu were both very tired now, so they went to bed after returning to the hotel.

Silent all night.

The staff of the Mercedes-Benz team started their vacation the next day, including Qin Miao. As for Mercedes-Benz's equipment, people from the logistics department will be responsible for storing and transporting it.

Qin Miao studied his system while eating breakfast in the morning.

In yesterday's game, Qin Miao also had system tasks released, but there were no new tasks. He was still the same old one. It was still the regular lottery and becoming the best driver of the week in the audience vote after the Grand Prix.

Qin Miao not only received 19 pieces of miscellaneous items, but also received a little extra free attribute points by winning the audience vote for the best driver in this game. He also received a portable health potion.

Qin Miao took out the portable health potion from the system with some curiosity.

It was only after I got it in my hand that I realized that it was actually a bottle of Devil's Claw.

However, Qin Miao knew that this thing was just covered with a layer of devil's claw skin, and contained health care potions.

After getting rid of the trap, Qin Miao no longer cares about drinking water in daily activities. It will no longer be like before. When drinking the drink you want, you have to pay attention to yourself to see if there is a camera pointed at you. , now whenever Qin Miao is thirsty and wants a drink, he can take out a can of Devil's Claw Dundon from his bag.

As for those free attribute points, they were naturally saved by Qin Miao. Currently, Qin Miao had no ability in attributes and encountered a bottleneck. This point can naturally be retained and used when needed in the future.

The next day Qiu Meng went shopping in Monaco with Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu in the morning.

Of course, Qiu Meng doesn't just go shopping like other girls. She knows that if she goes shopping with Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu, they are going to jail, so this girl brings After the two looked at the scenery of Monaco and got a taste of the local customs, they rented a speedboat. With a coach, the three of them drove the speedboat directly on the Gulf of Monaco.

The key is that Qin Miao just finished the race in second place at the Monaco circuit yesterday, and his influence has not faded yet.

So the speedboat coach was very excited when he saw Qin Miao. He even gave Qin Miao and the others an extra hour of play time. After getting off the speedboat, he took Qin Miao and took a photo.

In the afternoon, Qiu Meng left Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu at the hotel, while she went to meet the people Yili sent to negotiate the contract to finalize the contract.

Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu spent the entire afternoon playing games in the hotel.

Because he was carrying a laptop, Qin Miao did not start the live broadcast.

In the evening, Qin Miao was taken away by the team again. At that time, Toto called Qin Miao and asked where he was. After knowing that Qin Miao was still in Monaco, the team asked Qin Miao to run to Mercedes in the evening. A few photos of another car were taken for promotional purposes.

On the third day, Qin Miao, Qiu Meng and Zhou Guanyu returned to the UK.

After returning to the UK, Qiu Meng brought Zhou Guanyu home for a meal. In the afternoon, the two spent an afternoon fishing together in the artificial lake near Qin Miao's home, which was considered relaxing and comfortable.

But the two couldn't help but quarrel when they were together, so after fishing all afternoon, the two were still in the air force.

After dinner, Zhou Guanyu left.

Not long after Zhou Guanyu left, Qin Miao and Qiu Meng also went out. Their destination was the notary office of a company in Brackley, where they mainly signed contracts with Yili.

The details and some provisions of the contract are too complicated, so I won't go into details here. I will mainly talk about the constraints of this contract on Qin Miao, the obligations he needs to pay, and the benefits that Qin Miao can ultimately get.

This contract lasts for four years. After Qin Miao signs it, he will become Yili's biggest and most important spokesperson in the world.

After that, Qin Miao needs to shoot an advertisement for Yili every summer and winter break, participate in the recording of a variety show sponsored by Yili at least once a year, and participate in a promotional activity at least once a year, that is, acupoint walking.

Then there are some small details that need to be maintained externally such as Yili's image.

In fact, in the original contract, Qin Miao had to do more things and obligations, but Qin Miao's performance on the field was so impressive. Qiu Meng increased the contract price and also made Qin Miao have to do a lot less.

The signing fee for Qin Miao's contract is as high as 500 million U.S. dollars. This is just the signing fee, and the total endorsement fee for four years is floating. The first year is 3000 million U.S. dollars, and the endorsement fee for the second year is based on Qin Miao's first year. It is calculated based on performance on the field. If the performance in the first year is good enough, the endorsement fee can be increased in the future.

But Qin Miao didn't know how much the increase would be. Qiu Meng went to help Qin Miao negotiate these details.

So it was just an ordinary night. In a slightly famous law firm, Qin Miao signed his name on the endorsement contract under the witness of the lawyer and Yili representative, and then he got a sum of 3500 Thousands of dollars of funds were recorded.

Of course, the money is taxable.

Qin Miao and Qiu Meng both have the same view on this matter. Although their family is not rich, as long as they don't spend money carelessly, they will basically have enough food and clothing in their lives, and their quality of life is also guaranteed. There is enough money to support the elderly at home for two people.

Therefore, the two agreed that the taxes that should be paid should not be paid even a cent less, and no loopholes in the law could be exploited.

After the matter was finalized, Yili began to use Qin Miao to promote it domestically.

The popularity of Qin Miao's outstanding performance in Monaco has not passed yet, so Yili's publicity comes at the right time.

On Thursday, Qin Miao stopped fishing. He trained normally in the morning and spent all his afternoon on the team's simulator.

Qin Miao, who knew that after the proficiency of the track reached 1000, there would be a purple lottery draw, and decided to fill up all the tracks that had not yet reached 1000 proficiency.

However, this is a big project and cannot be completed in a short time, so Qin Miao is not in a hurry and takes his time.

It just so happened that he was going to race in Azerbaijan soon, so Qin Miao spent the afternoon brushing up on his proficiency in street races in Baku and doing leveling exercises.

Qin Miao returned to work on Friday.

On Saturday, Qin Miao was mainly involved in the development and discussion of new upgraded components for the racing car.

Red Bull is chasing closely this season, so the team put most of its resources into the upgrade of the car this season.

And because of the introduction of budget cap rules, Mercedes no longer has sufficient resources to trial and error and maintain dual lines of research and development.

Of course, in meetings of this level, Qin Miao can only listen in most of the time. As he knows nothing about racing design, all he can do is give feedback on the racing feedback he feels on the simulator under different designs. The change.

After the meeting, Qin Miao received a piece of not-so-good news: after evaluation by the team's engineers, the service life of Qin Miao's racing engine had declined significantly.

It was like Qin Miao's engine wear curve in the previous games was a very smooth downhill curve, but after arriving at the Monaco track, this line suddenly sank a lot.

However, the engine itself can still be used, and it is not a big problem for running practice races, but if it is used to run the main race, the durability of the engine will not be enough.

Of course, having a new engine means that Qin Miao will have the best engine in the race in Azerbaijan. Such an engine means that Qin Miao will have a more powerful engine output in the main race.

Just like batteries, new batteries always charge and discharge better than old batteries.

On Sunday, Qin Miao got up early and was taken to Zhou Guanyu's home by Qiu Meng.

Today is Zhou Guanyu's birthday, and both Qiu Meng and Qin Miao have prepared their own gifts.

What Qiu Meng prepared for Zhou Guanyu was more practical. The girl went directly to Niko, a professional CSGO player, to buy the Fire Sand Eagle that he had played in the Major.

It’s not expensive, it cost me only [-] dollars.

The thing Qin Miao sent was a container drawn by a lottery from his system, and the after-sales service for this thing was very considerate.

If you want the items in the container, someone at the terminal will help you prepare a car to take them away. If you don't want the items in the container, there are people who recycle debris at the terminal. They will help you take away the items at a price slightly lower than the market price. ,

Qin Miao and Qiu Meng both knew the password for the door lock of Zhou Guanyu's house, so Qin Miao didn't see anyone else and entered the password directly to open the door of Zhou Guanyu's house.

At this time, Zhou Guanyu didn't even get up.

Also, today's young people can't get up in the morning on Sunday.

After entering Zhou Guanyu's house, Qin Miao placed his gifts on the table in the living room of Zhou Guanyu's house, and quietly went to Zhou Guanyu's bedroom.

Seeing her boyfriend's cautious movements, Qiu Meng silently said something childish in disgust, but she still couldn't control her inner curiosity and followed him quietly.

At this time, Zhou Guanyu's bedroom was dark. Zhou Guanyu should have adjusted it on the APP. Although it was almost 10 o'clock, the smart curtains did not open automatically.

Zhou Guanyu's sleeping posture was very upright, lying on his back on the bed.

When Qin Miao saw Zhou Guanyu's sleeping posture, he already had concerns in his mind.

Qin Miao quietly exited the room. After arriving in the kitchen, Qin Miao found the ingredients Qiu Meng had sent to her last night.

After all, it was a friend's birthday. Qiu Meng felt that going out to eat together was not as warm as eating with friends at home. Moreover, Zhou Guanyu had not eaten domestic cuisine for a long time and was craving for it.

Since the birthday girl wants to eat, Qiu Meng naturally needs to be satisfied, so he prepared the ingredients a day in advance and asked someone to deliver them.

Qin Miao rummaged through the pile of ingredients and found a bag of lemons.

He opened it and took out a lemon.

At this time, Qiu Meng also came behind Qin Miao, and the girl was also curious about what tricks Qin Miao would pull.

After seeing this lemon, Qiu Meng roughly guessed what Qin Miao wanted to do.

Qin Miao took out a fruit knife from the knife holder and cut the lemon in the middle.Then Qiumeng saw Qin Miao pick up half of the lemon and lick it in a bit speechless.

Then Qin Miao's facial features shrank together due to soreness, and her body even became a little twisted.

"Hiss... what the hell."

After swallowing the sour saliva, Qin Miao handed the lemon he had licked to Qiu Meng: "Daughter-in-law, do you want a bite?"

Qiu Meng didn't mind it either, so she picked it up and licked it with her little tongue.

"It's really sour~"

"Hey, it's just sour. When I take the lemon off, Zhou Guanyu will definitely be energetic." Qin Miao chuckled.

After finishing speaking, Qin Miao came to Zhou Guanyu's bedroom with the other half of a lemon that had not been licked by the two of them.

Qiu Meng silently took out her mobile phone and started recording the video. She felt that this video would be of great interest to fans of both Zhou Guanyu and Qin Miao.

I saw Qin Miao in the camera tiptoeing into Zhou Guanyu's room, touching Zhou Guanyu's side, and found that it was too dark in the room to see Zhou Guanyu's mouth clearly, so Qin Miao opened the curtains a little.

Now Qin Miao was able to determine the position of Zhou Guanyu's mouth.

Then Qin Miao hung the lemon on Zhou Guanyu's mouth with a full face of anticipation, and began to squeeze it with a little force.

Transparent lemon juice flowed out from the incision and dripped onto the gap between Zhou Guanyu's slightly open lips.

Soon, Zhou Guanyu, who was sleeping very peacefully, noticed something was wrong and frowned slightly.

But Qin Miao's hand movement didn't stop. Even after confirming that the location where the lemon juice would drip was the same as the location where he wanted it to drip, Qin Miao used a little more force.

So Qiu Meng saw the lemon juice in Qin Miao's hand begin to flow out quickly, and even one of the seeds was squeezed out by Qin Miao.

And Zhou Guanyu opened his confused eyes with distorted facial features.

As Zhou Guanyu's taste cells started to work, he noticed something was wrong, and then the distortion of his entire face suddenly increased.

He still said "Ah~" unconsciously in his mouth.

The saliva began to secrete quickly and costlessly, and even a strand of saliva leaked directly from the corner of Zhou Guanyu's mouth.

Qin Miao fell to the ground laughing after seeing this scene.

Zhou Guanyu calmed down for a while, swallowed his saliva, and then realized that someone had entered his home. Then he saw Qiu Meng holding a mobile phone at the door, and Qin Miao holding half a lemon that had been pinched until the seeds came out.

After being stunned for a short time, Zhou Guanyu realized what happened.

Immediately, anger rose from the heart, and evil came to the gallbladder.

However, Qin Miao was not a person who would take advantage of others. Seeing that Zhou Guanyu had recovered and looked a little dangerous, Qin Miao jumped up on the spot and escaped towards the door while laughing.

After all, Zhou Guanyu had just woken up, his body functions had not fully recovered, and his movements could not keep up with Qin Miao's movements.

So I could only watch Qin Miao run away.

But the sour taste in his mouth that even corroded his teeth made Zhou Guanyu so angry that he grabbed his pillow and threw it at Qin Miao as if to vent his anger.

But due to his poor accuracy, he almost hit Qiu Meng who was watching a movie on her cell phone at the door.

But no matter what, Qin Miao did successfully wake up Zhou Guanyu.

After getting up, Zhou Guanyu simply cleaned up and then walked listlessly to the living room of his room like a resentful person.

Qin Miao handed Zhou Guanyu the birthday gift she had prepared for him when he just sat down.

Qiu Meng also transferred her gift to Zhou Guanyu through Steam in front of Zhou Guanyu.

First, he thanked Qiu Meng with some surprise, and then Zhou Guanyu looked at the small gift box Qin Miao handed him.

Qin Miao also specially packaged the key in a gift box, so it looked like that.

Zhou Guanyu didn't show up either. After Qin Miao handed the things over, he opened them directly in front of Qin Miao.

But when he saw a key inside, he was a little confused: "No, Lao Qin, what did you give me? Car keys don't look like this...did you give me a suite?"

"What are you thinking about? Can my brother give you such a low-grade thing?"

After hearing this, Zhou Guanyu said: "On the contrary, I hope you will give me some unoriginal things, at least you will not mess with these things."

Qin Miao didn't care about Zhou Guanyu's complaints, but explained: "This is the key to a container. I wonder if you have ever seen those variety shows that open blind boxes in containers. This container is that kind of blind box."

Zhou Guanyu was a little confused. It was obvious that he had not watched those programs, but he asked curiously: "I haven't watched them, but what can be found in them?"

Qin Miao simply explained to Zhou Guanyu what might be coming out of these containers and the origin of these containers.

After listening to Qin Miao's explanation, Zhou Guanyu said with bright eyes, "This is fun and interesting."

Qin Miao also nodded in agreement. In fact, Qin Miao didn't like to open those doll blind boxes. Even if he opened a hidden one, it would be like that. After all, those things were useless to Qin Miao, but there were real things in these container blind boxes. It can produce some useful things.

This added motivation to Qin Miao.

"How about it, buddy, isn't this gift innovative enough?" Qin Miao asked with a smile.

Zhou Guanyu gave Qin Miao a thumbs up: "I give you a thumbs up.

Oh, by the way, do you have anything to do in the afternoon? "

"It's okay. I just took the time to come here to celebrate your birthday with you today."

"What other birthdays are there, what kind of food are we going to eat? If we don't want to eat, which terminal is the container at? Let's go over and open the blind box!" Zhou Guanyu waved his hand.

"Ahem..." Qiu Meng coughed.

Although Qiu Meng's cough was very soft and pleasant, and not at all threatening, Zhou Guanyu, who had been scolding Fang Qiu just now, immediately became speechless after hearing it.

It's not that Zhou Guanyu is afraid of Qiu Meng, it's mainly because when Qin Miao lived at Zhou Guanyu's house, Qiu Meng took care of all the housework and three meals a day.

And Qiu Meng didn't complain at all. Although he knew that Zhou Guanyu took advantage of Qin Miao, Zhou Guanyu still subconsciously gave in to Qiu Meng when he saw her.

After Zhou Guanyu became honest, Qiu Meng drove the two children to the living room, and she began to work in the kitchen.

Naturally, Qin Miao and his family could not be the only ones who came to celebrate Zhou Guanyu's birthday. Zhou Guanyu's high school classmates, friends, and teammates also came to Zhou Guanyu's home at noon.

But when they really arrived, Qin Miao was the more popular person than Zhou Guanyu.

Especially Zhou Guanyu's high school classmates and neighbors. After entering the door, they could still smile and say hello when they saw Zhou Guanyu, but when they saw Qin Miao lying on the sofa of Zhou Guanyu's home playing PS5, everything changed.

Zhou Guanyu's classmates would look in disbelief, and the more excited ones would scream directly.

The normal procedure after that was to run to Zhou Guanyu, who was looking helpless, and ask in a low voice: "Zhou, am I right? That person sitting on the sofa, is he Qin Miao?
Is it Mercedes-Benz driver Qin Miao? "

Facing the expectant classmates, Zhou Guanyu could only nod helplessly in response: "Yes, that's the big wretch."

The next process will be that they come to Qin Miao with anticipation and ask for his autograph and take a photo.

If he was bolder, he would even ask Qin Miao if he could give him a hug.

Some people who thought they were very strong saw Qin Miao playing King of Fighters, and they overestimated their abilities and wanted to have a simple and exciting King of Fighters showdown with Qin Miao.

Of course, these people all ended up being beaten up by Qin Miao, without exception.

The lunch everyone had at noon was the lunch prepared by Qiu Meng for them. After all, there were foreigners present today, and basically none of these people knew how to use chopsticks, so Qiu Meng did not prepare hot pot, but prepared everything for everyone. It's home cooking.

Taking into account the nature of the British food desert and the fact that British people don't like spicy food very much, Qiu Meng made a home-style dish of fried pork with pepper and fish head with chopped pepper for Qin Miao, Zhou Guanyu and herself. The rest were relatively light dishes.

The natives of the old British Zhengmi Banner have never eaten Chinese food that is full of color, flavor and flavor. Once the fork starts moving, they can't stop. While stuffing things into their mouths, they use their thumbs to praise Qiu Meng's delicious food.

After having enough wine and food, we naturally can’t let Qiu Meng, the head chef, take care of things.

Zhou Guanyu and Qin Miao started working consciously. After finishing their work, Zhou Guanyu told his friends about his container.

Not surprisingly, all the men present were very interested in this container.

After confirming that everyone was interested, Zhou Guanyu didn't hesitate. After carrying the garbage downstairs, the group went straight to the dock where the containers were placed.

This is the best thing about being a kid. Even if you are in the center of the city, you can only walk to the beach within a few steps.

When I arrived at the port, I found Zhou Guanyu's container under the leadership of the port company staff. Then the port company people used a gantry crane to lift Zhou Guanyu's container out of a pile of containers.

After the container was placed on the open space, Zhou Guanyu couldn't wait to walk up.

Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu's friends looked in curiously.
