How did I become an F1 driver?

Chapter 209 207: Kimi
As the container opened, everyone's eyes lit up.

Because there are a lot of things inside the container, and they are put together layer by layer, at first glance it seems that there is a lot to explore inside.

Qin Miao saw at a glance that there seemed to be a boat or something inside the container, and there were some debris piled up outside.

It should be said that it is in this line of work. After the container was opened, the staff of the port affairs looked inside, and then rummaged through the sundries piled up in the corner. After confirming that there were no valuables, they gave a rough estimate: "If you don't want them all, if we recycle them... we can give you about 7 US dollars. The main valuable is the last boat."

Zhou Guanyu thought about it, he didn't have a place to store so many things in his home, so he simply sold them all at once.

"I don't want them all, just take them."

The other party nodded: "Okay, but this is just a rough estimate. I have to see if there are valuable things in it for the specific price."

Zhou Guanyu naturally nodded obediently.

After more than 20 minutes, Zhou Guanyu made a net profit of 76000 US dollars.

Looking at the transfer prompt on his mobile phone, Zhou Guanyu asked curiously: "How much does it cost to buy each of these containers?"

Qin Miao spread his hands: "Actually, someone else gave it to me. I was very busy some time ago, so I didn't have time to drive it. It happened to be your birthday, so I simply gave this thing to you."

Zhou Guanyu didn't feel unhappy because this gift was given to Qin Miao by someone else. There were not so many twists and turns between men.

"It's interesting. Now I'm starting to worry about what I should give you on your birthday so that I don't look like I'm stale." Zhou Guanyu started to get a little confused.

On the contrary, Qin Miao didn't care: "It's simple, you can just give me a kiss when the time comes."

"Your uncle..."

……

Zhou Guanyu's classmates are not poor. Seeing how fun it is to open this thing, and Zhou Guanyu seems to have made a little profit, they also bought a few tin blind boxes from the port office. After opening them, they naturally made a profit and a loss. But on the whole it was still a loss.

It is not difficult to understand. After all, if the contents of the container are really valuable, the owner of the container is unlikely to abandon it at the dock.

After opening the large blind box, Qin Miao was ready to go home. He has work tomorrow.

But before leaving, he was dragged by Zhou Guanyu's friends to take a group photo on the pier.

After returning home, Qin Miao went to take a shower, while Qiu Meng organized all the express delivery at her door.

First, she opened some things Qiu Meng bought online.

After packing up, Qiu Meng discovered two express packages from Qin Miao. The first box she opened contained the PS5 special edition bought by Qin Miao.

The appearance is a photo of Qin Miao when he won the championship at Imola.

Qiu Meng remembered that this seemed to be specially customized for Qin Miao by Sony people. Even Sony people didn't ask Qin Miao to send a message on Twitter or Weibo. They directly contacted Qin Miao and asked if he wanted such a special edition. PS5, they started making it after Qin Miao nodded, and now it’s delivered.

The second box left Qiu Meng a little confused, because Qin Miao hadn't bought anything else recently.

Without any hesitation, Qiu Meng opened the box directly, and then Qiu Meng was a little confused to see that what was in the box was actually a pure white dress.

I looked at the size and it was indeed my own.

Just when Qiu Meng was confused, Qiu Meng suddenly thought of Qin Miao who seemed to have deliberately glanced at the etiquette ladies when they were on the podium in Monaco.

Qiu Meng glanced at the toilet where the sound of water was coming from, and then shook her head helplessly.

The next day, Qin Miao went to work at the Meiben factory refreshed, while Qiu Meng had a rare sleep in.

The Baku track of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix is ​​as completely unfamiliar to Qin Miao as Monaco. He never ran this track in F2, only on the simulator.

Baku is also the second longest circuit on the calendar.

On this high-speed track, the team also brought a wave of upgrades.

First of all, the wind-breaking wings on both sides of the car have been adjusted. After all, Baku is a track that attaches great importance to tail speed, so the resistance of adjusting the wind-breaking wings this time will be reduced, but the downforce will not be lost too much.

At the same time, the diffuser on the base plate has also been adjusted to some extent.

Finally, the front nose and rear wings have been replaced with medium and low pressure versions.

Qin Miao had been running these upgraded data on the simulator in the team factory until before the start of the race in Baku, and he also practiced his proficiency on this track on the simulator.

Hamilton is slightly more relaxed than Qin Miao. After training, he is mainly responsible for helping the team develop new components, including but not limited to: providing ideas, design suggestions, and future performance requirements for the car, or reaching certain indicators.

For the design department of Mercedes-Benz, Hamilton has a bit of a taste of Party A, but if you think about it carefully, Hamilton is indeed a Party A. After all, he is the end user of the car designed by the Mercedes-Benz design department.

In comparison, Qin Miao's job is easier, because in addition to improving his own strength, Qin Miao only needs to give feedback on whether the effects and control feeling of the new parts on the simulator have changed.

Time always flies when you focus on something. By the time Qin Miao came back to her senses from work, it was already Wednesday of competition week.

When I got up from bed in the morning, the system's task prompt sounded like Qin Miao's alarm clock.

[Mission: Touch the Peak]

[Task requirement: Win the championship at the Baku circuit]

[Reward: free attribute point*1, team free attribute point*1, golden lottery*1, lottery points equal to the points obtained]

[Quest: King of Baku]

[Task Requirement: Become the best driver voted by the audience in this game]

[Reward: Rain Fighting Ability +1]

[Mission: The Temptation of Tires]

[Task requirement: Obtain pole position in qualifying]

[Reward: Random attribute points +2]

……

Looking at the tasks given by the Grand Prix system, Qin Miao raised his eyebrows in surprise. To be honest, Qin Miao was quite interested in the rewards of these three tasks.

I won’t go into details here about how strong the free attribute points and the team’s free attribute points are. A redundant golden lottery can also make Qin Miao one step further on the road to accumulating ten gold companies.

What if the random attribute points after that are lucky enough to point to my rain battle ability?By then the barrel effect will no longer be the biggest problem plaguing Qin Miao.On Wednesday morning, Qin Miao cut his daily physical training by half, and spent all his spare time improving Baku's proficiency.

Soon, half an hour before lunch in the afternoon, Qin Miao crossed the finish line for the last time and let out a sigh of relief.

The system prompts that Qin Miao's proficiency in this track in Baku has reached 1000, the purple lottery +1, and the total number of purple lottery: 6.

After taking a short rest and stretching some muscles, Qin Miao took Qiu Meng and Barber to Azerbaijan in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, because the track was still in the preparatory stage, Qin Miao didn't go to join in the fun, and was idle in the hotel in the afternoon.

After Qin Miao's work started to get on track, he had a lot of things to do during the holidays. It was rare to have a whole afternoon of rest, so Qin Miao happily played games in the hotel at home all afternoon.

On Thursday, Qin Miao was ready to walk on the track in the morning when the sunshine was not particularly bad.

The Baku circuit is too long, a full six kilometers, and you can't finish the circuit in less than an hour and a half by walking normally.

Moreover, Baku has a 2.2-kilometer long straight, so there is no need to consider track conditions on this straight.

So Qin Miao still uses a scooter when walking on the track.

However, this thing is not very convenient to carry, and it is impossible for Qin Miao to carry a scooter with him just for the convenience of walking on the track.

So these things were actually brought here by the logistics department of Mercedes-Benz Racing Team for Qin Miao.

There are also drivers on the track who want to take advantage of the morning sunshine to walk the track early.

While Qin Miao was waiting for Barber to bring his scooter over, he saw Kimi leaning at the entrance of the track, as if waiting for someone.

To be honest, Qin Miao still has a good impression of Kimi, and he can't explain the reason. It's simply because Qin Miao feels that Kimi's free and easy temperament fits his imagination of his future.

So while waiting for the team staff to dig out his car from Mercedes' supplies, Qin Miao got close to Kimi.

"Hi Kimi."

Kimi turned her head and saw that the person who greeted her was Qin Miao. Then she extended her hand to Qin Miao: "Qin Miao, good morning."

Qin Miao also smiled and shook his hand, and then the two hugged.

After they separated, Kimi groped his chin and suddenly said to Qin Miao: "Seriously Qin Miao, I'm very curious about how you did it in Monaco.

After returning from the game, I watched your car footage in Monaco, but I didn’t understand how you did it. "

Qin Miao was confused: "What are you referring to?"

"Tires, the lifespan of your set of soft tires is abnormally long, and I'm not the only one who thinks so. After the race, I saw people from Pirelli studying your four sets of tires for a long time."

It's a pity that Qin Miao couldn't explain Kimi's problem and could only make a fuss: "To be honest, I don't know what the situation was at the time. I just felt that my tires were always in good condition, so I never talked to the team. They said there was some kind of problem with my tires, so the team never let me pit, and it took me so long without even realizing it.”

Kimi was obviously disappointed when she heard Qin Miao's answer. For a person of his age, there are very few things that make him curious and have a strong desire for knowledge.

Unfortunately, from the attitude of Qin Miao, Kimi knew that there might not be a reasonable explanation for this matter.

But he still asked reluctantly: "Can you send me the data of your game? I'm really curious."

Qin Miao didn't hesitate. As soon as Kimi finished speaking, Qin Miao took out his mobile phone and called an engineer in charge of data at Mercedes' team home: "Jack, are you on duty for the team now?"

"Please send a copy of my car data for the Monaco Grand Prix to Kimi's email."

"It doesn't matter, I will explain to Toto and I will ensure that Kimi will not give these data to Ferrari."

After a few words were said there, Qin Miao put down her phone under Kimi's somewhat blank gaze.

"After you go back today, you can check your work mailbox. Although there are a lot of spam in your work mailbox, I believe you should be able to find it, right?"

A driver's work email address is not confidential within the paddock and is known to many people.

Because more people know about it, it will inevitably be leaked, so more spam emails are received.

Qin Miao often finds some benefits from young ladies in her work mailbox. They are all in rags and look pitiful.

There are also some that are more unrestrained, so I won’t go into details here.

But after all, there is something called the search engine bar. It doesn’t matter if there are many junk files. Just open the engine bar, enter some keywords and search for a while, and you can find this file.

But Kimi was a little surprised. His relationship with Qin Miao was not bad, but it couldn't be said to be great. It could only be said that it was an ordinary colleague relationship. They had met each other in the paddock, and they could nod and greet each other like they did today. To say hello, the two parties had not spoken more than 20 words during such a long time together, and most of them were polite words and greetings.

But despite this, Qin Miao still gave the data to himself without saying anything.

This is basically the privacy of the driver. What Kimi said was just out of habit. He wanted to and then said it without so many twists and turns.

But Kimi knew very well in his heart before that it was basically impossible for Qin Miao to give this data to him. It was very likely that he would just take care of it and get this matter out of the way.

So after encountering something unexpected, Kimi couldn't react for a while.

"Um, although I didn't expect you to give me these data, thank you anyway." Kimi said seriously after making sure that Qin Miao was not joking.

Qin Miao shrugged indifferently and said: "It's not that important, and it's still Monaco data. These data have basically no reference value when used on other tracks, but you know, you have to destroy these data after reading them." , it would be better not to show up at the Ferrari meeting table."

Kimi nodded repeatedly: "Of course, I know what to do."

If it were Giovinazzi, he really had no way to guarantee that Qin Miao's data would not appear on Ferrari's conference table.

After all, as long as Ferrari knows that Giovinazzi has Qin Miao's driving data, they will definitely go to Giovinazzi to get it.

And because of his position and driver's seat, Giovinazzi is likely to hand over this data.

But Kimi is different. He is now retiring in Arrow and making some money for his children's milk powder. Even if Ferrari knows that Kimi has Qin Miao's data and asks him for it, Kimi has enough confidence not to hand over the data.

On the other hand, Qin Miao dared to hand over the data mainly because the Mercedes team internally called the data outrageous after reading it.

Moreover, the vehicle data of the Monaco track is not a reference for other tracks, because this track is too narrow, so the tuning of the cars tends to be high downforce tuning.

It can be said that Monaco is the track with the highest requirements for car grip and downforce. The data of this track can only be used as a reference for other tracks. There is no way to directly use it, let alone Qin Miao. The rate of tire failure looks unusual to other teams.
