CHAPTER 206: CHAPTER 126: STRANGE CONTRACT

Although Qin Miao’s performance was amazing, he has only raced once so far, so spreading this news would seem quite hasty.

Moreover, now that Qin Miao has agreed, the ones who should be anxious shouldn’t be the Ferrari people.

Once Qin Miao’s performance in F2 stabilizes, then Ferrari fans will be the ones getting anxious.

When the news of Vettel leaving Ferrari is released, Ferrari fans will start speculating who will replace Vettel next season.

After speculating about the drivers within the F1 paddock and identifying some candidates, they’ll also look down at F2 for any promising young talents from Ferrari’s youth training.

Upon this observation... huh? How is there a fish explosion here... no, using ’fish explosion’ can’t even describe this guy’s strength anymore; he’s directly draining the fish pond.

No more picking, let’s just go with this kid!

When Ferrari fans start chanting Qin Miao’s name on Ferrari’s social accounts, Ferrari will then release the news that Qin Miao has already joined Ferrari, which will undoubtedly be another excellent wave of marketing.

Back at the hotel, Qimeng was wearing a pair of narrow-framed blue light glasses on her nose, adding a bit of intellectual beauty to her cute little face.

However, Qin Miao wasn’t really interested in this style, and Qimeng’s outfit generally indicated she was working, so Qin Miao didn’t bother her.

He got in front of the computer and opened his Steam.

Zhou Guanyu wasn’t playing games at the moment, but his Steam account was online.

Not in a hurry to call him for games, Qin Miao cheerfully sent a message to Zhou Guanyu on Steam.

Sanshui: [Hey, there?]

[I have some good news for you.]

Soon, Zhou Guanyu replied; he should be sitting in front of the computer, just not playing games.

Shanghai Tiger: [?]

Sanshui: [This news is a bit explosive, don’t get excited, don’t overthink, don’t go into a shell, take a deep breath.]

Shanghai Tiger: [???]

Sanshui: [I didn’t show up this afternoon]

[Binotto and Lawson came to find me]

After sending this, Qin Miao leaned back cheerfully in his chair, took his phone out from his pocket, put it on the table, and started counting down: "Three, two, one~"

As soon as Qin Miao’s countdown ended, his phone rang.

He answered the call, and Zhou Guanyu’s voice came through: "What do you mean? Huh? Shouldn’t this just be a normal meeting? What do you mean by ’don’t get excited, don’t overthink’? Don’t tell me... did you impress them with just one race? Don’t joke around..."

Actually, the message Qin Miao sent to Zhou Guanyu wasn’t worth such excitement from Zhou Guanyu, but combined with phrases like "don’t get excited, don’t overthink, don’t go into a shell," Zhou Guanyu couldn’t help but suspect Binotto’s purpose for finding Qin Miao.

Could this guy really have signed with Ferrari to become an F1 driver based on one race’s exceptional performance?

No way, there’s no reason, it’s too fast, why? Has Bi Hai gone crazy?

At this moment, Zhou Guanyu admitted he was a bit excited, as if the values he had built over more than a decade collapsed completely, shattered on the ground, and even got stomped on by Qin Miao.

Listening to his friend’s words full of astonishment and disbelief on the other end of the receiver, Qin Miao smiled slightly: "Just as you thought, the contract details are initially settled, we’re just waiting for Ferrari to send it over; once it’s signed, your buddy will be someone you can’t easily associate with anymore."

After receiving this message from Qin Miao, Zhou Guanyu’s heart was mixed with emotions.

But Zhou Guanyu isn’t the type to fear his brother’s struggles or fear him driving a Land Rover.

Because his family isn’t bothered by a few Land Rovers.

His complex feelings purely stem from his confusion on why Qin Miao’s talent is astonishing, yet his luck is just as good.

Even though Ferrari’s F1 team has been without a title for years, Ferrari’s place in F1 is like Jerusalem to the West, or Tifa to the 3D community.

To a certain extent, Ferrari holds a sacred position in F1.

Even if the team is downcast, countless drivers still yearn for a spot in their lineup.

It’s beyond expectation that his friend Leclerc, who was with him during Ferrari’s youth training, drove for Alfa Romeo for a year and then joined Ferrari; now his good buddy Qin Miao is even more outrageous, having not even ventured into an F1 team, with one F2 race making Binotto personally invite him, seemingly reporting to Ferrari next season.

For a moment, Zhou Guanyu began wondering if he had some kind of Buff, allowing those with good relations with him to enter Ferrari, and the closer they are, the quicker they join.

After introspecting for a while, Zhou Guanyu adjusted his mood, but honestly speaking, he genuinely envied Qin Miao’s racing talent.

When he first met him, Qin Miao was merely a passerby with some talent on simulators, but within a year, he had evolved into a genius driver needed by Binotto personally to invite to Ferrari.

Once his emotions were back in check, Zhou Guanyu, appearing as if he was gritting his teeth, yet jokingly said: "Damn it, you’re treating us to dinner tonight!

...I need to find the most expensive restaurant around here, not necessarily the best, just the priciest; I’ve got to give you a huge hit to ease my resentment!!"

Laughing, Qin Miao shrugged: "Sure, go ahead and pick the best, but just a heads up, since our physical conditions differ, some dishes I can eat you might not; if you eat them, how do you think your Physical Trainer will react?"
