Chapter 549 549. Navigator Recommendation

Xu Jia's last words were equivalent to telling Qin Hao his decision.

However, Xu Jia did not immediately notify Feng Bingman according to the phone number on the business card, but planned to give her a detailed and accurate answer after discussing with the old drunkard.

The reason is simple. When it comes to setting up a team, the old drunkard is the key figure that cannot be bypassed. In a sense, Xu Jia still needs the old drunkard to be his teacher.

Because even if Xu Jia has a background as an F1 test driver, rally racing is still a completely different racing system. Although he specializes in sports, he cannot fully utilize his advantages in track racing on the rally track.

Moreover, the physical quality of this body is far from being comparable to that of his previous life. In high-intensity and high-intensity events, whether he can sit still on a rally car is a problem, let alone precise control.

According to Xu Jia's previous estimates, the actual performance on the track is currently at most 50% of his peak strength.

There may be no problem running some low-level rally events, but when it comes to national-level events, Xu Jia will start to feel pressure and may not be able to crush the domestic rally masters.

We must know that the development of professional motorsports in China originated from the "Hong Kong-Beijing Rally" in the 1980s. It can be said that Chinese professional drivers all started as rally drivers, and then developed into track racers and later formulas. rider.

Relatively speaking, the overall strength of rally drivers is higher than that of track racing drivers. Even if track racing scores surpass rally racing in China ten years later, it will be due to the transformation of formula drivers.

For example, Ma Qinghua, the only person in China who has obtained an F1 super license, switched to track racing and directly won the WTRC world championship title. This is a first-level event under the FIA ​​(International Automobile Federation), which directly improved the domestic track racing results. A level bigger.

Of course, this is just a dimension reduction blow after the transformation of genius-level drivers, and it does not mean that the overall strength will be stronger in track racing than in rally racing. Especially in this era, the performance of Chinese rally drivers is still stronger, even in Asia, it is only beaten by Japan.

Not to mention that the opponents Xu Jia will come into contact with in the future may not only be Chinese drivers.

Because racing clubs, like basketball and football clubs, have foreign aid, many European and American drivers will come to China to compete under the temptation of signing fees and high salaries.

The strength of these foreign players is much higher than that of the top domestic rally drivers, and some have even reached the WRC threshold. Xu Jia must take into account the existence of these variables.

"Have you decided to pursue a career?"

"Ah."

Xu Jia nodded. In fact, it has always been his decision to pursue a career, but he didn't know how to better realize his plan before.

"Well, if you are short of a navigator then, I can recommend one to you."

Qin Hao's words hit Xu Jia's pain point. He had previously run individual driver events, unlike rally events where he had to have a partner.

According to Xu Jia's current social circle, even if all the people who join him are included, the only ones who are of the right age are Dead Fatty, Brother Niu, and Qin Hao.

The problem is that Qin Hao is not very familiar and has no interest in the profession. Brother Niu will laugh naively and speak awkwardly. It is better not to waste his skills on becoming a navigator.

The fat guy feels even more unreliable. He talks too much nonsense. What the navigator wants is professionalism and conciseness. Moreover, there are a lot of high-speed cornering and drifting movements during the rally. Fatty Chen’s fat body can slow down the car for at least a second or two during the whole race!

After much deliberation, it is impossible to drag Chen Xiaoya along to make up the numbers. This is too unrealistic.

"Who is it? You can't recommend yourself, right?"

Xu Jia smiled and replied, among these people, Qin Hao is the most suitable to be his partner.

And this kid is handsome enough. With his handsomeness, he might even become a powerful idol in the racing world. It shouldn't be a big problem if he overpowers Han Han or something.

"Li Wenfeng."

"Li Wenfeng?" This recommender was somewhat unexpected by Xu Jia. After several contacts, he had a good impression of Li Wenfeng. But to be honest, Li Wenfeng is the kind of young man who plays underground racing. Is he really suitable to be a professional driver navigator?

You must know that a qualified navigator means the other half of victory. Rally racing has never been a driver's personal game!

"He has played in rallying. Although his driving skills are not very good, he is very loyal in life and character. If you don't have a better choice, I think he will be a suitable partner."

Xu Jia has indeed seen this point of loyalty. He helped him fight Chang Yu in the parking lot at the top of the mountain, which can be regarded as a typical example of Guojiang Longqiang. If most people have nothing to do with themselves, they will probably just stand aside and watch the fun.

But just like Feng Bingman, Xu Jia would not easily come to appropriate conclusions about people he didn't understand.

So he nodded and replied: "I will consider it."

"Well, it's getting late, so I'll leave first."

Qin Hao had almost everything he wanted to know and wanted to say, so he opened the car door and prepared to get out of the car and leave.

"Wait a minute, there's still something very important to do!"

Seeing Qin Hao getting out of the car and leaving, Xu Jia quickly shouted.

"whats the matter?"

Qin Hao asked in confusion.

"The bank card number is urging Chang Yu to send money. This 500,000 yuan is urgent and crucial!"

Xu Jia took out his mobile phone and quickly sent his bank card account number to Qin Hao. He looked anxious like an old money fan.

Qin Hao had a hard-to-express feeling because he was optimistic about Xu Jia's virtue.

This kid feels like he's always switching back and forth between a master and a "country dog". He doesn't feel as anxious about a major event like building a team as he is asking for money.

"I understand. If you are really short of money, I can lend it to you."

Qin Hao said, with Xu Jia's ability, hundreds of thousands is really not a big problem.

"You don't have to pay back the borrowed money? Can you still get money?"

"Thanks for tonight, I'll contact you when you have time."

After saying this, Xu Jia put the car in gear, stepped on the accelerator, and drove directly towards the rental house.

It was already past one o'clock in the morning. If Feng Bingman hadn't mentioned the formation of a convoy, Xu Jia would probably have driven directly back to the rental house instead of coming to Yanjiang Road.

On the way back to the rental house, he passed by the car wash. Xu Jia unexpectedly discovered that the lights in the car wash were actually on. You must know that under normal circumstances, the car wash shop will be closed at 6 or 7 o'clock in the evening. No matter how much delay it is, there will be no one there in the early morning.

Did someone forget to turn off the lights or a thief came in?

But think about it, thieves are not so arrogant. Is it because they turn on the light because they are afraid that it will be inconvenient to steal things in the dark?

With this doubt, Xu Jia turned the steering wheel and drove the car to the open space in front of the car wash shop. Through the glass display window of the shop, he could vaguely see the back of the old drunkard, sitting alone in front of the counter, not knowing what he was doing.

After turning off the engine and getting out of the car, Xu Jia walked into the store and saw clearly that the old drunkard was drinking alone.

It's just that there is not just one wine glass in front of him, but two.
