Chapter 954 Done!

As Yu Qing said again, on the last day of qualifying, Xiao Peng received an official letter from the FIA, which means that the car race organized by Xiao Peng involves safety issues and must be rectified.

Xiao Peng believes that the top 60 teams in this qualifying race should have received such an official letter.

However, he is not nervous at all, and now all the participating cars are undergoing final inspections, and the Huaxia Automobile Federation has issued the racing and safety standards. This is the new Huaxia standard, including car weight, engine displacement and other rules, although it is similar to the FIA GT2 standard, but adds a lot of details, especially in terms of safety.

This also gives a new signal that the Huaxia Automobile Federation is going to make trouble.

At this time, Xiao Peng also organized all the participating teams and drivers to hand over to the hotel conference room for a meeting.

In the conference room, Xiao Peng looked at the contestants, tsk, big names gathered!

Xiao Peng even saw Jackie Chan!

Well, Jackie Chan is certainly not a racing driver, but Jackie Chan is really a racing enthusiast! And he's not only a racing enthusiast, but also the owner of a world-class team!

That's Sparkle Roll Jackie Chan DC Team!

The Sparkle Roll Group is the only agent of Bentley, Rolls-Royce and Lamborghini in China, and the number one agent of Bentley in the world, which is a complex and mysterious business empire. The long-standing accumulation of luxury car customers has also made Sparkle Roll Group an agent of premium watches and jewelry, including brands such as 'Richard Miller', 'Parmigiani Fleurier' and 'Bossini' jewelry.

Needless to say, Jackie Chan is the winner of the Academy Lifetime Achievement Award and the most internationally prestigious movie star in China. These two have joined forces to invest in the 'Sparkle Roll Jackie Chan DC Team', which has been a dark horse since its birth!

In 2015, Chinese driver Cheng Fei founded the DC Racing team as a driver and boss, and later ushered in the investment of Sparkle Roll and Jackie Chan, and changed its name to the 'Sparkle Roll Jackie Chan DC' team.

The team has two cars, one is the No. 37 car, the driver is Cheng Fei, Alex Blundel, the son of Martin Blundel, the famous F1 driver of the Eagle Country, and Tristan Gwendi, who used to play for the LeTV team. The other is the No. 38 car, and the main driver is the Dutch-Chinese driver Dong Hebin.

Just these two cars, just a few years old team, when participating in the 24 Hours of Le Mans last year, directly won the championship and third place in the P2 group! This achievement is not unassuming! It is the highest achievement of Huaxia Racing in the world-class racing world! This is definitely the most suitable investment for Jackie Chan.

You can't use a professional Le Mans car in this race, but that doesn't mean there won't be a professional driver! Cheng Fei and Dong Hebin are here! They use a modified Bentley Continental GT that meets the GT2 standard. As Bentley's agent, Sparkle Roll was a little surprised to send this car to the race, after all, wouldn't it be better for Lamborghini to participate in the competition? It might be more in line with the interests of Sparkle Roll Group.

Everyone was chatting in the conference room, and when they saw Xiao Peng walk in, everyone stopped talking and looked at Xiao Peng.

Xiao Peng raised his hand with a smile: "Everyone should know me." Well, there may be people who don't know me, let me introduce myself, my name is Xiao Peng, the organizer of this racing competition, and I am also a participant in this competition. ”

There was applause from the audience, after all, he is the organizer of this game, is he the god of wealth?

Xiao Peng raised the official letter in his hand: "Tomorrow is the race, I know that all drivers and bosses need to rest well to meet tomorrow's race." So I'll cut it short, you've all received such an official letter from the FIA, right?"

Everyone nodded in unison.

Xiao Peng smiled and asked, "I don't know what you guys think about this matter?"

"Boss Xiao, in fact, this is also the purpose of our coming here today, we want to see how the race party ensures the safety of the drivers. A bearded man raised his hand and said.

Xiao Peng looked at it, hey, big guy, Pete Sauber.

The founder of the F1 Sauber team, he later sold the Sauber team to BMW and renamed it BMW Sauber team, but a few years later BMW withdrew from F1 and he bought the Sauber team back. Later, the Sauber team fell into a financial crisis, Switzerland's Longbow Finance took over the Sauber team, and Pete Sauber also announced his retirement, but I didn't expect him to appear here------ what kind of retirement is this Nima?

Xiao Peng smiled slightly: "We don't have any guarantees. ”

After listening to Xiao Peng's words, there was an uproar at the scene.

Xiao Peng waved his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet, and after everyone was quiet, he continued: "I think everyone should have seen the safety standards set by our Huaxia Automobile Federation for this event, I can guarantee that everything in the parking lot meets the safety standards, you can inspect it, if there is a place that does not meet the safety standards, I am willing to be punished." What does that mean? In terms of safety at the racetrack, I've done my best. Do you have any questions about this?"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, about Xiao Peng's racing track, they really can't find any fault.

Pete Sauber said: "Sixty cars competing in the same field is indeed too prone to danger, which is irresponsible to the car and the driver." ”

Xiao Peng nodded: "Mr. Pete Sober, right? You are very right, then you mean that you are going to withdraw from this game, right?"

"Huh?" Pete Sauber was stunned, "Why?"

Xiao Peng said as a matter of course: "Don't you have an opinion on the safety of the race? Your team can retire from the race, although this is a pity, but I still respect your choice! Are there any other teams that want to withdraw from the race?"

Pete Sauber said: "If we are going to retire, the tournament will compensate us!"

Xiao Peng shook his finger: "Mr. Sober, I respect you very much, and I respect your performance in F1, but there is one thing I want to explain, if there are still people on the scene who want to retire, not only can they not compete for high bonuses, but they will also not get any compensation." ”

The scene began to riot again, Xiao Peng signaled everyone to be quiet, and continued: "You really can't blame us for this matter! First of all, if you take the initiative to withdraw from the competition, we will naturally not be responsible for the event. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Peng paused: "Of course, if you want the event party to reduce the number of participating vehicles and increase the safety of the race in accordance with the FIA standards, I can reduce the number of participating vehicles to forty, this number is acceptable to everyone, right?"

After listening to Xiao Peng's words, the teams with the top results in the qualifying race nodded one after another! This matter will reduce the number of competitors! Including Sober also thinks so! So they all agreed, while those who were in the bottom of the results protested.

Xiao Peng coughed dryly twice and continued: "Of course, it is very unfair to rank twenty after such a qualifying race, we have also seen it, in fact, everyone's results are very close, it may be just a small mistake to lose the ranking and fall behind others, but this does not mean that they do not have the strength to win the championship, so it is unfair to them to eliminate twenty people directly according to the results!"

Hearing Xiao Peng say this, those teams with lower rankings echoed one after another.

"In that case, we can take a fairer approach to weeding out twenty people, and of course, I will say first that we have no compensation for the twenty people who have been eliminated in this way. After all, this is a measure we have taken to comply with the FIA's regulations. Of course, I know it will have an impact on our reputation, but after all, we are a new event and we will correct our mistakes in the future, if there is any future。。。。。。 Xiao Peng said: "Actually, I want to continue to hold this kind of high-prize event, but the first time I hit such a nail, so I'm not sure if there will be such enthusiasm in the future." ”

Hearing this, everyone started to talk about it, how disappointing would it be to hold such a tournament with such a high prize money!

"Mr. Xiao, I don't know what you said is the fairer way to eliminate twenty people?" someone asked.

Xiao Peng stretched out his finger: "Draw lots!"

"What?" Hearing Xiao Peng's words, the audience was shocked: "Mr. Xiao! Such an important thing is eliminated by drawing lots, isn't it too child's play?"

"You're all professional drivers, and as you know, luck is part of the strength. Eliminating 20 people by drawing lots is definitely the fairest way. Xiao Peng said lightly.

After listening to Xiao Peng's words, there was a lot of discussion on the scene, and many people directly stood up and protested.

Xiao Peng stood there smiling and didn't speak, and after everyone finished speaking, he smiled and stretched out a finger: "Of course, there is a second way that you can choose!"

After listening to Xiao Peng's words, the scene stopped talking, looked at Xiao Peng, and waited for him to continue.

Xiao Peng said: "I want to ask you a question, you have seen, this racing event is very popular, have you considered why everyone likes racing?"

Without waiting for everyone to answer, Xiao Peng replied to himself: "Speed, overtaking, and even car accidents are all stimulating people's adrenaline, if there is only one person racing, will so many people pay attention to this sport?"

"Of course not!" Without waiting for everyone to answer, Xiao Peng gave a direct answer: "Sixty cars, 24 hours, there must be car accidents, breakdowns, accidents, and overtaking! Moreover, the cars participating in this race are all non-professional racing cars that are closest to everyone's life, which has attracted more people's attention! If you participate in this race, advertisers, sponsorship fees, and popularity are all welcoming you, but what if you quit the race? These will be far away from you. ”

I admit that the 24-hour rally is boring, because the single game is too long, so there are fewer people watching, but it doesn't mean that no one is paying attention, on the contrary, this event is now regarded as a celebration in China, even if no one will stare at the 24-hour end, the attention is also very high, you have noticed, many people are ready for a protracted battle with tents. Do you want to miss this opportunity to become famous overnight in China?"

"So I say the second way, it's to ignore the FIA's waste rules! All of you participate in this race, of course, I can't guarantee that you won't get into a car accident, after all, 60 cars, it's still a 24-hour race, and no one can guarantee that you won't make mistakes in the whole race. And what the FIA says is a 'dangerous race', I don't deny that it's a dangerous race, with well-designed corners, and seven kilometres in a straight line that can easily run up to 300! It's a challenge to the car, a challenge to the driver's own skills. Only real drivers are qualified to stand on this track! Are you real racers?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Peng waved his hand behind him, and Hai Laozhe and Takeshi Kaneshiro walked over with a large box and put the box on Xiao Peng's table,

"Of course, you're all veterans on the racetrack, and you've heard a lot of what I've said! Those who finish in the top 60 will receive $100,000 as a prize for entering the top 60 if they play. The choice is up to you!"

After speaking, Xiao Peng opened the box directly, and there were neat piles of dollars inside!

Seeing all this, the audience was silent for a long time, and then suddenly began to discuss.

Quitting the competition, not a penny, as long as you participate, 100,000 dollars! 6 million dollars are piled up in front of you, like a hill, that's a shock!

100,000 US dollars, this is a lot of money! The team's results are good and bad, and there are more or less money, but no matter who it is, no one can refuse to drop 100,000 US dollars from the sky! Although this money is not much, it is definitely a lot! At least this competition is not in vain, is it?

Brother Jackie Chan, who had been sitting in the back and didn't speak, suddenly spoke: "I think, this person who is not confident in himself should quit this race, our 'Sparkle Roll Jackie Chan DC' team will definitely not quit, we Chinese people, abide by the rules of our Chinese people's automobile federation, and only such a car is a real racing car! Exciting enough! This is a sport that men play! Those who are afraid should quickly quit themselves! Don't be embarrassed here! Brother Xiao! Tomorrow we will score high and low on the track!"

Xiao Peng laughed, picked up 100,000 US dollars and handed it to Jackie Chan: "Brother Jackie Chan, I know you are not bad for money, this is a bonus for the people in your team." We're going to have a game tomorrow, it's not the time to drink, and when it's over, we're going to have a drink!"

"No problem! That's what I'm waiting for!" Jackie Chan laughed.

With the first to take the money, there is the second。。。。。。 In the end, all the teams are determined to race! Go to the special 'dangerous races'! Can professional racers be afraid of danger?

Xiao Peng smiled slightly, the FIA's problem is solved!
