This Leclerc Horner must have the ability, from the fact that this guy can lead the Fiat team to win three constructors' championships and a drivers' championship, Chen Geng has no doubt, even if his current performance in leading the team is not ideal, but for a team like the AMC team that has not yet begun to be formed, can Chen Geng ask for more?

Chen Geng was just a little worried, would this guy be so inflated because of his brilliant past achievements, and the whole person was stubborn?

If so, then he will have to think carefully.

David Richards understood what Chen Geng meant, and he nodded: "How to say it, at the beginning, Leclerc Horner must have been a little inflated, which is also normal, but it has been almost three years since he won the championship for the last time, and his results last year and this year are so poor, what qualifications does he have for expansion?"

"Isn't the person too inflated?" Chen Geng frowned: "That's ......"

"I can't say that it has nothing to do with him personally, but I think it's mainly because of the internal struggles of the Fiat Group. ”

"Huh?" This is all related to the internal struggle of the Fiat Group? Chen Geng raised his eyebrows: "What do you say?"

"The Fiat Group has two teams participating in the WRC at the same time, Fiat Racing and Lancia Racing, which are part of the two subsidiaries of the Fiat Group: Fiat Automobilia and Lancia Automobilia, which have always been at odds with each other, and the two companies are also attacking each other and competing for resources at the level of the Group's board of directors."

David Richards said this, and paused slightly: "You are also engaged in business, you should understand, now at the level of the board of directors of the Fiat Group, it is the power of Lancia that overpowers the power of Fiat, not only the funds approved for the Fiat WRC team are much less than in previous years, but within the board of directors of the group, the directors of the Lancia side also used the excuse of the need to improve the R&D strength, and transferred a large part of the technical R&D personnel from the Fiat Sports Department, so it ......"

I see!

Chen Geng really suddenly realized: maybe there is indeed Leclerc Horner's own reasons, but the factional struggle within the group is the culprit of the poor performance of the Fiat WRC team, which can be understood.

Dream on!

Chen Geng nodded: "Then you can help me make an appointment with this Mr. Leclerc Horner, and I'll talk to him." ”

"No problem. David Richards said happily.

"As for the salary......"

Chen Geng thought for a while: "Let's see the results of the chat, but if I decide to hire him and ensure that his salary will increase by at least 10% compared to now, as for how much he can get, it depends on his ability, I am not afraid that he will get a high salary, but I am afraid that his ability will not be able to get such a high salary."

And in terms of prize money, I don't hesitate to give him a big prize, as long as he can give me the result I want, I will give him what he wants. ”

"Ha ......"

David Richards smiled: "I'm sure Mr. Horner will be very happy to hear what you said......"

The two were chatting happily, David Richards' secretary knocked on the door and came in, she first glanced at Chen Geng, and then cautiously said to David Richards: "Boss, Mr. McRae has arrived, look ......"

"Mr. McRae?"

David Richards was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly patted his head: "Damn, I forgot about it!"

Although Chen Geng has always been kind and approachable, David Richards himself can't help but force him to receive heavyweight guests like Chen Geng, not to mention that the company is closed all day long, at least all the reception arrangements today should be postponed and postponed, but he actually forgot it, it is really ......

David Richards wanted to slap himself twice.

It was Chen Geng, who was a little curious: "You have a guest here?"

"It's okay, it's okay," David Richards, who was afraid that Chen Geng would misunderstand, hurriedly waved his hand: "Mr. Fernandez, don't get me wrong, it's just a good friend...... Well, he modified a race car here for me......"

"Oh," Chen Geng nodded, he didn't mind this kind of thing, and waved his hand at David Richards, but Chen Geng was a little curious: "If you can call it a racing car, it must be a real racing car?

Sure that Chen Geng was not unhappy because of this, David Richards breathed a sigh of relief, and he hurriedly nodded: "In fact, McRae is a very good rally driver. ”

"Then see you," I heard that the visitor turned out to be a good rally driver, Chen Geng's interest suddenly came, David Richards is very picky, this McRae's strength can be recognized by David Richards, then he should be really powerful. Chen Geng said with great interest: "Since this guy is a professional rally driver, maybe I can talk to him about the formation of the team or something." ”

David Richards can only be regarded as half of the racing circle, in Chen Geng's opinion. Compared to David Richards, this McRae is a real practitioner in the racing circle, and some of his suggestions may be more referential than David Richards' suggestions.

Since Chen Gengdu said so, what else does David Richards have to say?

........................

David Richards' friend named McRae did not wait in the reception room, instead he went straight to the construction workshop where the car was being modified, and it was in front of the car he had passed by that was being converted to rally again.

It was still quite far away from the car, and Chen Geng saw a red-faced and blonde middle-aged man with a sturdy body but not bloated, but with an unusually thick neck, with a typical racing athlete's body, with a teenage child, talking about these things with the technician of the car modification.

Although no one introduced Chen Geng, the temperament of that guy made Chen Geng understand that that guy was McRae.

There was still a long way to go, and David Richards beckoned, "Hey, Jimmy." ”

Sure enough, it was that guy.

Hearing someone call his name, the red-faced and blonde-haired middle-aged man subconsciously turned his head, and immediately saw David Richards walking towards him with a young man with extraordinary bearing and manners.

Seeing that David Richards actually came over with a guy he didn't know, the guy named McCree was stunned, but he didn't take it seriously, and then nodded with a smile: "Hey, David, you have a guest?

David Richards didn't answer, but said to McRae, "McRae, I'll introduce you to a friend." ”

"This is Jimmy McRae, my good friend," David Richards told Chen, "Jimmy is a very good British rally driver, this is an experienced guy, he won last year and the year before, and he looks very likely to win this year.

As for this handsome and handsome young man next to Jimmy, well, it's Jimmy's son Colin. ”

Colin?

Thinking of Jimmy McRae's surname, Chen Geng's heart was overwhelmed: the little boy in front of him who followed his father and looked a little shy and shy...... No, it's the big boy, Colin McRae, the famous king of the World Rally Championship, a 25-time WRC champion, and a 1995 WRC championship for the Fuji Subaru team?!

As one of the most legendary drivers in WRC history, Chen Geng, an industry practitioner, is of course familiar with the situation of Colin McRae, the guy known as "Elton Senna in the WRC field", and he pretended to casually take a closer look at this little guy who seems to be "that" Colin McRae, well, very similar, indeed very similar.

As for this Jimmy McRae......

After introducing the guests to Chen Geng, David Richards turned around and explained Chen Geng to Jimmy McRae: "Jimmy, this is Mr. Fernandez, the boss of the AMC car I once mentioned to you, and also my boss, the owner of the famous 'devil's claw'. ”

Listening to David Richards's introduction, Chen Geng was silent on the surface, and he was indeed ecstatic in his heart: That's right, this little guy is really Colin McRae, and he has picked up a treasure! Because Colin McRae's father is named Jimmy McRae, thinking that the British rally driver won five annual championships in 1981, 1982, 1984, 1987 and 1988, Chen Geng is very sure of the identity of the father and son in front of him.
