Chapter 633 633. He is a man
You must know that in the past, interviewing athletes at domestic events, especially those within a system like the Olympics, could basically be described as "be cautious in your words and deeds."

It’s rare to hear them say outrageous words, let alone directly diss other sports like Han Han!

Han Han himself is a controversial figure in this era. If these words spread to the football circle, I don't know what kind of uproar it will cause, or even a war between the two circles!

Sure enough, I still said this...

Xu Jia stood next to Han Han, and the expression on his face was wonderful after hearing these words.

Because compared to other people in this world, no one expected Han Han to be so shocking and stubborn. Xu Jia had seen the controversial news caused by Han Han's words on TV in his previous life.

At that time, after the ROC China Car Championship, a reporter asked Han Han how he would evaluate himself when he entered the track as a non-professional driver like a writer and finished second.

Faced with such a question, maybe Han Han felt a little unhappy at that time. He had already won the domestic double championship, but the outside world still regarded him as a non-professional driver?
So he replied somewhat tit-for-tat: "Actually, my condition is relatively average, and I can still run better. And in domestic competitions, I think my results are pretty good, and I should be called a driver."

"Maybe my appearance has slowed down Chinese racing, allowing a book writer to achieve good results. Is the level of this competition very low?"

"In fact, I can prove to everyone that the level of Chinese racing must be higher than that of Chinese football."

And when he said this, Han Han was not as arrogant as many people imagined. On the contrary, he always had his trademark shy smile, and even made habitual head-turning movements on his hands.

It is precisely this kind of micro-expression that shows that Han Han has a very extreme dual personality. He looks soft and modest, and speaks slowly and elegantly. But inside, there is a kind of arrogance and arrogance.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this trait that he transformed from a writer to a driver!
"Xu Jia, what do you think of Han Han's statement?"

CCTV Sports reporters were the first to break the silence and shock. Since Xu Jia said that tomorrow is not a one-person event, he should also express his own opinions on tomorrow's match against Schumacher and Han Han's remarks.

"I think Han Han said it well."

Xu Jia nodded in agreement with a relaxed expression, as if he didn't see how controversial this topic would cause, or even how much of a negative impact it would have on the image of athletes.

So when his attitude came out, all the reporters were petrified again. In the past, when interviewing various sports athletes, they had never been as direct and rough as racing drivers.

Even if some athletes say something quickly that may cause misunderstanding and controversy, they will immediately be reminded by their teammates and coaching team to find a way to come back.

As a result, it is not just Han Han's case alone, but also the championship and runner-up. Is this the reality of the driver?
Faced with this surprising reaction, Xu Jia found it very strange. Everyone is used to hypocrisy these days, so does it feel shocking to even tell the truth?
The only competition that the ROC Nations Cup can correspond to is the World Cup, and it is all entered with the advantage of the host country. It's just that the ROC Nations Cup is a direct promotion, while the 02 World Cup is an indirect promotion, without Japanese and Korean teams competing for spots.

The national football team did not score a single goal in the World Cup that year and ended up with zero points. Xu Jia felt that if he teamed up with Han Han, no matter how unlucky he was to be drawn into the death group, he would not win a game and be completely eliminated, right?
So Han Han said he is better than the national football team. Is there any problem?

"Damn it, I kind of appreciate Xu Jia, he's not a coward who just throws the blame away!"

"This is the real driver. A man who devotes his life to chasing speed and passion should not be hypocritical!"

"There is a saying in the racing world that a driver without personality cannot achieve greatness!"

"If Xu Jia can achieve good results one day, he can bear the title of China's genius driver!"

The audience who had not yet left the scene began to cheer enthusiastically for Xu Jia after hearing his answer.

People may hate people who are more arrogant, but they definitely hate people who have no responsibility to sell their teammates even more.

No matter what happens, Xu Jia will compete with Han Han in the ROC Nations Cup as teammates tomorrow. If he chooses to distance himself from the relationship in order to avoid this kind of topic and bring negative impact to himself, that would be a truly contemptible move!

And as a professional driver, personality and arrogance are necessary things. The answers of Xu Jia and Han Han made many people see the hope of Chinese racing.

Even Han Han, who was being interviewed, subconsciously looked at Xu Jia. He didn't expect that this new "teammate" who he didn't know very well would choose to support himself on such a topic.

With Han Han's IQ, he knew very well the consequences of such remarks, but he didn't dare to say it because he knew it. This is not Han Han's character.

At the same time, he believes that Xu Jia also knows the consequences of agreeing with his response. After all, the Chinese football circle is far from comparable to the racing circle. If a driver's image is too bad, it will not only be as simple as being criticized for saying something nice, but also future naming, sponsorship and even team contracts will be greatly affected. This is the same as when many artists receive endorsement contracts, which will include a clause stating that if a scandal occurs, the contract will be terminated immediately and the compensation will be the same.

He still has the identity of a writer, so there is no reason for him to offend others. However, Xu Jia is a newcomer and has nothing but joining the Dragon Team. Yet he dares to go all out like this. He is a man!

The interview continued for a while, but the topic had already been formed, and no matter how much more was said later, it would not be as popular as Han Han's words.

When the two drivers left the field from the contestants' channel, Han Han walked side by side next to Xu Jia. He hesitated for a moment and then said: "Actually, you don't need to express your stance on my remarks."

"I'm not taking a stand on your remarks, but I feel the same way. Do you think we can't win a game tomorrow?"

Xu Jia smiled and could only say that the reporter was not asking him, otherwise it would not be Han Han who caused the controversy.

"Do you think we can win tomorrow?"

"We will definitely win!"

For any event, even if the opponent is a god-level driver like Schumacher or Hamilton, Xu Jia will still run with the mentality of defeating the opponent!
After saying this, Xu Jia walked towards the maintenance room P of his team, leaving Han Han standing there looking at his back.

Everyone in the pit station congratulated a few words as usual, but didn't express much. Maybe there were too many victories and surprises tonight, which made them a little numb. Another point is that the title of China's car king is actually a bit watery. After all, it is not a points race.

Just like the world doesn't think of the ROC Nations Cup as the "King of Kings" in the world, it's the same reason that they really think it is better than the F1 World Champion.

After the game, Xu Jia returned to the hotel. On the other side, Cheng Long was having dinner with several big bosses from domestic car companies.

If Xu Jia's victory over Chen Congfu attracted the attention of the chairman of Qirui Group, then when he defeated Han Han and won the title of China's Car King, almost all Chinese car companies set their sights on him.

After all, the Dragon Team has not officially cooperated with any manufacturer yet. Maybe they can form a joint team, just like M-Sport, the top semi-private team in WRC in later generations.

However, Cheng Long still maintains a more cautious attitude towards technical cooperation, even with the United Racing Team, and he prefers title sponsorship.

The reason is also very simple, that is, the current research and development capabilities of domestic car companies are really not very good.

Even the Qirui A3, which is the strongest in rally competition, only plays in the domestic 1.6L competition, and is placed in the international 2.0L group, not to mention facing the current top Peugeot 206, Citron XSARA (Senna), and Focus WRC This kind.

Even if you compete against the older versions of Mitsubishi EVO, Subaru STI, and Toyota Corolla WRC that have been eliminated, do you dare to say that you can win in terms of chassis and technology?
To be honest, even the Subaru GE that Xu Jia modified now was already showing its age on the WRC track in 08. He finally chose to withdraw from the WRC track that he had competed in for more than ten years in 09. With the Mitsubishi EVO, this pair of Japanese The twin stars both come to an end.

In addition to the lack of funds, the reason is that technology cannot keep up with the pace in Europe, and the country is even more lagging behind in this regard.

A team must first consider achieving results before it can take care of the higher pursuit of national sentiment.

Even Prost, the four-time F1 champion, founded the Prost team named after himself and wanted to build a pure-blood team that completely belonged to Grand France, but it was difficult to avoid being eliminated in the end.

After all, France still has top car companies such as Renault and Peugeot, but they can't support their national sentiments, let alone China.

If you can't run well, using the name of a purebred Chinese team is simply a waste of emotions, and even a different kind of darkness.

It's impossible that Cheng Long didn't understand this, so even if he needed technical and financial support, he never gave up easily, but discussed other cooperation methods in more depth.

……

The time soon came to the next day. Compared with yesterday’s Chinese Car King’s Championship which was like foreplay, today was the main meal time.

The national duel in the ROC Nations Cup will be staged at the Bird's Nest Circuit tonight. This is also the last gluttonous feast of the 2009 automobile event!
However, in the morning, there has been heated discussion in the sports circle. The remarks made by Han Han and Xu Jia yesterday have been placed on the headlines of major newspapers and even media news.

It can be said that Han Han was controversial in his early years because of his criticism of the college entrance examination system. Let alone right and wrong issues, at least it means that this guy is a topical figure.

Now there is a wave of diss about the national football team, which is simply full of hatred. After all, even if the national football team plays badly, this is other people's football circles' own business, and it has nothing to do with you, a car driver?
Xu Jia, as an "accomplice", is not much better. How can Han Han rely on his achievements and win the top honor of the domestic racing double championship? Do you, a rally rookie, have the right to speak?
