"Shovel! This is a malicious smear, and they have joined forces to target Phineas! ”

Seeing the news report, when He Ziling said the translated content, Ah Hu jumped on the spot.

He is very angry at the moment, and these media are too good at taking things out of context!

Chen Zhi's emotions were similar in his heart, but this kind of thing could not be solved by relying on his fists, so he was not as excited as Ah Hu.

On the contrary, Zhang Yifei was very calm when he saw it, perhaps he had experienced the Internet society of the 21st century and understood that Europe and the United States were not a paradise.

There are not too many things against Chinese athletes in later generations, such as Yao Ming's contempt when he first entered the NBA, Sun Yang was ridiculed by his Australian opponent for taking medicine, Zou Shiming's professional "pirate style", and foreign netizens ridiculed rats scurrying around, etc.

It's just that the media is not developed in this era, and many Chinese people think that Europe and the United States are paradise on earth, and a famous movie "Chinese Partner" in later generations is about Chinese college students in the eighties and nineties, and their only goal is to immigrate to the United States and have an "American dream".

So it's not that the other party is too dark, but that many people don't know that they think Europe and the United States are too beautiful before.

"If you don't have the absolute strength to get a team contract, you need to rely on sponsorship to enter the F1 team, and the sponsor will consider more in the face of drivers with a negative image."

Junko Takeda finally said the same thing as He Lang, in Formula 1, in addition to the drivers who officially signed the team contract, there are also sponsorship paid drivers.

Sponsorship is to find a rich father, such as an industry giant like China Mobile, in the case of the driver's strength is only barely passing, but not absolutely strong, with money to smash the driver into the F1 team, this is called sponsoring a paid driver.

In general, the strength of the paying riders is relatively weak, but there are exceptions to the strongman. For example, the car god Senna, he entered F1 with Brazilian sponsorship and paid for it, but he himself later did not admit it.

In addition, the 05 F1 champion "head brother" Alonso, he is a typical sponsorship paid driver.

There are other examples, such as Japanese driver Takuma Sato, who is not a paid driver sponsor, but who signed with an F1 team, also has the shadow of Honda behind him.

In fact, there is not much problem with sponsorship and payment, other rich second generations are yacht pickle girls, and these rich second generations drive Formula 1 to die, which is also a life choice.

"This is what some people want to achieve, and the means are quite clever."

Zhang Yifei sneered and said that Renault is now a hot springboard, and many drivers want to take a step from this springboard.

If you show a certain strength, and there is such a huge market in China behind you, in case any sponsor wants to sponsor in order to open up the market, not to mention the exaggeration of directly entering F1, there is no big problem to enter the F3000 team with a high probability.

China, in fact, is Zhang Yifei's biggest hole card and potential advantage, and the market and influence of 1.2 billion people cannot be ignored by any team and sponsor.

If Zhang Yifei's low-key driving skills are bad, then he is likely to receive praise and encouragement in Europe, as the old saying goes, because Zhang Yifei is not a threat.

But it's a pity that Zhang Yifei, a kid, is different from the previous Asian drivers, not to mention high-profile intrusions, but also made various "arrogant" remarks, and more importantly, he got on the podium at the first stop, showing his strength and potential.

There is no doubt that Zhang Yifei's performance, for some drivers, is equivalent to stealing all the attention, covering their light, and it is more difficult to be noticed by sponsors and teams, and it becomes unrealistic to want to reach the sky in one step.

Contempt and racial discrimination are actually very superficial factors. can participate in formula racing at a young age, and most of the family members are either rich or expensive, far beyond the knowledge of their peers, so they will definitely not be stupid.

In the absence of a conflict of interest, contempt will not be a reason for them to make enemies, smiling on the surface, and MMP in the heart is a normal person's practice.

is like an old saying, his mouth is full of isms, but his heart is full of business, and the fundamental reason is that Zhang Yifei showed competitiveness and began to grab the cake of European drivers, which caused this "public anger" scene.

Many drivers may not take the initiative to trouble Zhang Yifei, but once Zhang Yifei has any "black spots" on his own, they will definitely not mind "making up the knife".

It is estimated that Madu thinks like this, even if he didn't expect the sponsor to be so far away from the team, but it is enough to take the opportunity to discredit Zhang Yifei and vent the resentment in his heart.

"The means are very clever and will have an impact on future sponsorships."

"What's the impact? I never wanted to be a paid driver, just take the team's official driver contract, and no F1 team would turn down a champion to join. ”

Zhang Yifei replied domineeringly!

To put it bluntly, no matter He Lang or Junko Takeda, he just has no confidence in his heart, and he can't imagine that Zhang Yifei has the strength to absolutely crush him, so he was directly favored by the F1 team and signed a driver contract.

That's why they think about their personal image, whether it will affect the sponsor's decision, etc., and it's more about relying on sponsors to enter the F1 team.

In fact, they are not to blame, a driver from a country with no formula foundation can get sponsorship to enter the F1 team is a luxury, and wanting to sign a driver contract with strong strength is almost a pipe dream at this stage.

Even Takuma Sato, the strongest driver in Japan, still has to hug Honda's thigh and help Zhang Yifei find a thigh, which is also a matter of course.

"It's good to have confidence, but it's also important to be prepared for both, so I'll contact Toyota's public relations department to see if I can make an appointment with a few reporters to write a press release to help you clarify these false accusations."

Junko Takeda's method Zhang Yifei is very familiar with, which is the operation of later generations of celebrities hyping and writing drafts and buying hot spots, but the Internet is not developed in this era, and it relies more on paper media.

Of course, the cost is much more expensive, after all, the price of buying a few big Vs to post a Weibo is far lower than the cost of buying newspapers and TV in the media.

"Junko, if it's too difficult, don't force it, I'm really not affected."

Zhang Yifei instructed, his tone was a little helpless, and he could only say that at this stage, he could only be regarded as an inconspicuous small role.

No matter how confident you are, there is a feeling that you are bragging and saying big things, even if Junko Takeda and they will not pick out, or laugh at Zhang Yifei for anything, but this kind of preparation with both hands is undoubtedly a manifestation of unconfidence.

"I know, do your best."

Junko Takeda didn't hear what Zhang Yifei really meant, she thought that Zhang Yifei thought that it was too difficult to find a reporter to wash his name, so he didn't want to trouble herself.

It can only be said that the difference in thinking between two people in different eras is really big......

After this matter was decided, Zhang Yifei didn't bother to continue to dwell on it, formula racing is a sport, but it is still a little fundamentally different from the Olympics, because it is a purely commercial sport.

The mall is like a battlefield, and it is normal to deceive yourself, even if it is a teammate who comes to the same team in F1, there are many people who turn their faces because of the championship battle.

Now these drivers of Formula Renault are using some means to attack their opponents, and Zhang Yifei does not feel any unacceptable mentality.

It's just that Ma Du was also written down by Zhang Yifei in a small book, and if he has the opportunity, he will definitely rub this kid hard!

After the team members dispersed, Zhang Yifei carried out his physical exercise as usual, and his luggage and everything had been packed, waiting to go to Heidelberg, Germany tomorrow.

Compared with the current image problem, he is more concerned about whether he can impress Yamamoto Ukyo's mentor.

This is a Ph.D. in racing engineering, a member of the McLaren Racing Strategy team in the late 80s, and he brought more than just coaching in the race, but also a deep network of people behind it

Entering the F1 team, in many cases, in addition to strength, also requires a little luck and relationship.

For example, Ma Qinghua, the first Chinese driver to enter F1 in later generations, was full of serendipity when he was able to enter the HRT team.

Because he knew Jin Yong, the president of the Spanish Junior Chamber of Commerce, and Jin Yong met the owner of the HRT team by chance at a Spring Festival party, so he matched and helped Ma Qinghua open a door to enter the F1 team.

It's just that because of the limitation of strength, Ma Qinghua did not become an official driver and got the opportunity to play. And it didn't get a lot of sponsorship and go through the channel of paying riders.

Eventually, you have to leave the formula racing field and enter the lower-cost touring car races.

But Saiong lost his horse, and Ma Qinghua achieved very good results in the touring car race. Not only has he won the domestic touring car championship, but even the WTCC (World Touring Car Championship) has won two sub-championships.

It's just that when Ma Qinghua won the championship, WTCC was already in a half-dead state, and few factory teams were willing to participate, and the gold content dropped very seriously.

However, in 19 years, he participated in the reorganized WTCR and won the championship again, which was much more golden, and basically established the status of the first person in the domestic touring car race.

It is also among the world's top touring riders that Chinese drivers have a place, which is a historical breakthrough.

The next morning, the team members gathered in the cafeteria, which was also Zhang Yifei's habit, turning breakfast time into "meeting" time.

Junko Takeda has heavy dark circles under her eyes and obviously didn't sleep well last night, because she not only had to contact Toyota's public relations department, but also had to get information about Madur's drivers from Renault.

I even had to communicate with the Toyota European race organization to see if I could get the background information of Madu, so I was busy until late last night and basically didn't have much rest.

"Yifei, here's a detailed profile about driver No. 19 Madu, you can take a look."

After speaking, Junko Takeda handed a stack of printed documents to Zhang Yifei.

Zhang Yifei took the information in Junko Takeda's hand, and then opened it and looked at it carefully.

Madu is an Italian at the age of 16 and has been involved in karting since he was 8 years old, having competed in karting races such as the German Karting Grand Prix, the Monaco Karting Grand Prix and the Elf Masters.

However, Madu didn't do well in karting, finishing on the podium just once, and the rest of the time he was hovering in the back of the mid-table.

He was able to keep going, and even made it to Euro 2000 Renault, because he has a strong background, and once again proved that formula racing is a game of fighting for dads.

Madu is the son of Giancarlo Minardi, the founder of the F1 Minardi team, and his full name is Madu Minardi.

Minardi is one of the oldest teams in Formula Racing, founded in 1979 and started in the European Formula 2 Championship, and then progressed to 85 years before finally entering the Formula 1 team sequence.

This team is not well-known in China in later generations, because the results are perennially at the bottom of the table, and they have never won a single pole position or podium, let alone a championship or something.

The reason why Zhang Yifei knows this team is because it has cultivated Alonso and Webber, two F1 stars, and the first Chinese F1 official driver Yang Long also debuted in Minaldi, which was also reported by domestic media at the time.

Later, in 05, the Minardi team was acquired by Red Bull and became the second team of Toro Rosso, which is later known as the "Little Red Bull".

It's just that Zhang Yifei never expected that he would meet the son of the founder of Minardi, and he also attacked him.

"Junko, it turns out that Madu has this background, no wonder the means can."

"Well, the information shows that this is his first time participating in Formula Primary, and as a result, he rushed off the track in the first qualifying race, and there were no race points, so it is estimated that he has a deep grudge against you."

Hearing this, Zhang Yifei sneered: "Judging from his karting results, even if he doesn't rush out of the track in qualifying, it is estimated that he will not get any good results, and this black pot also wants to throw it to me?" ”

"Minardi is a veteran team, especially in the F3 and F3000 classes, and has a lot of influence. If Madu continues to target you, it could be troublesome. ”

"If you don't have the strength on the track, he can't target me, and the Minardi team itself is in the stage of struggling, so it won't affect anything."

Zhang Yifei is not very worried, in addition to his old qualifications, Minardi is at the bottom of the F1 team in terms of results, funds, and technology.

In the early years, it was not bad, and the capital investment ranked among the top three in the F1 team, but all kinds of investment was not put on technology research and development, resulting in a serious backwardness in the performance of the car, and there were no good drivers left, entering a vicious circle stage.

In a few years, it will be bought by Red Bull, and it is not much of a problem to say that it is still alive.

"Brother Fei, what happened, tell me and Brother Zhi about it."

Ah Hu listened to the conversation between Zhang Yifei and Junko Takeda, but he couldn't hear it, and he was already in a hurry.

Seeing that the two of them had come to an end, I finally couldn't help but ask.

"Ziling, you can translate with them."

After Zhang Yifei finished speaking, he also handed the information in his hand to He Ziling, she could be regarded as the English teacher of Ah Hu and Chen Zhi, so she simply asked her to translate.

He Ziling nodded and took over the information, and translated the content of Zhang Yifei's conversation with Junko Takeda to Ah Hu and Chen Zhi.

As soon as he heard that there were so many backgrounds involved, Ah Hu felt that his head was big, and he simply said to Zhang Yifei: "Brother Fei, I don't care what kid's background is, as long as he provokes us, he must take this breath." ”

"You don't have to come forward, how about I'm going to clean up that kid and give him a little bit of power?"

Originally, Zhang Yifei was quite calm, but when he heard Ah Hu's words, he instantly felt that his head was also big, why didn't he find out that this kid was actually a reckless man before?

So Zhang Yifei said a little helplessly: "Big brother, we are a professional sports team, not a Hong Kong Island Causeway Bay Troubled Boy, don't fight and kill everything, understand the four words of legal society!" ”

"Brother Fei, why do you still call me big brother, how embarrassing it is."

"! Is this the point? ”

Zhang Yifei felt that he was going to be angry with Ah Hu, why did he bring this Erlenzi to Europe?

The departure from Heidelberg, Germany is imminent, and Madu's matter can only be put aside for the time being, and Zhang Yifei has no good way to fight back, so it is impossible to really go to Madu in private to put a snakeskin bag on Madu according to Ah Hu's words.

Zhang Yifei will not be polite when he has the opportunity to teach a lesson, but now that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake and gambles his career on venting his anger, Zhang Yifei will not do this kind of stupid thing.

Although Milan and Heidelberg are cities in two different countries, they are actually more than 400 kilometers away in a straight line. Therefore, Zhang Yifei and his entourage chose to drive directly to save the trouble of renting a car in Germany.

On the way, He Ziling received a call from Andre, he asked the ruffians who stirred up trouble the night before, and confirmed that there was no one behind it, and the harassment at night was just an accident.

Hearing this result, it was a bit out of Zhang Yifei's previous speculation, and he thought that all this was arranged by Ma Du, otherwise it would be difficult to explain these coincidences.

Now it seems that it was not deliberately arranged by Madu, but he didn't know where he learned the news, so he added fuel to the fire, wanting to portray Zhang Yifei as a thug who fights.

Even further, if Andre did not come forward to solve the siege, if these ruffians were prosecuted, even if the truth was finally found out, it would affect his career.

"Although the karting results of this product are not very good, but the timing is quite accurate, if you don't run the equation, you may really be a talent in other aspects."

Zhang Yifei objectively commented that as the son of the founder of the team, the 16-year-old means and knowledge are indeed far beyond his peers.

If this matter is really completely instructed by him, then it is actually easy to do, as long as Andre can get the evidence, this is equivalent to Ma Du's handle in his own hands, and Zhang Yifei may be able to fight back if he uses it well.

But now he is just playing the role of a smooth sailor, it is difficult to define the illegal by inviting media interviews, writing black drafts or something, and there is no way to bite him back, which is much smarter than going straight to the end by himself.

"You still praise people like him?"

He Ziling was a little crying and laughing, she thought that Zhang Yifei would be very angry, but she didn't expect to be able to say that the other party was a talent.

"It's not a matter of boasting, it's true that this hand is very beautiful, sometimes if the opponent is too stupid, doesn't it mean that you are on the same level as him, otherwise how can you become an equal opponent?"

"Looks like you're in a good state of mind."

"That's a must, otherwise what should I do, I can't eat and sleep when I'm angry?"

"Just kidding, if this kind of small role is like this, and I encounter a person at the level of the F1 team boss in the future, then I will not hang myself!"

Zhang Yifei's mentality is really good, in his opinion, this kind of thing only caused trouble to himself, but it is definitely not to the point where he can't bear it.

In the future professional arena, there will be more difficulties and setbacks, and he has seen more darkness in his previous life, compared to Madu, which is really nothing.
