122 visa complete
Looking at Zhang Yifei's relaxed posture that he didn't care about, He Lang didn't know what to say, everyone has their own ambitions, and some things are barely coming.
"Well, I won't say much, I'm not familiar with Japan, but I know some people in European professional circles, if you need help, you can contact me."
Even if Zhang Yifei is unwilling to join the domestic team, He Lang is willing to give him some help within his ability. Maybe in the desert of the domestic equation, there will be a new star.
"Then I'll thank you first."
Speaking of this, Xu Hao next to him also understood the situation, he sighed and said: "Originally, I wanted to invite you to join the Volkswagen team, but now it seems that even He Lang can't persuade me, and I have no chance." ”
"But since you came to the Donghai Volkswagen Track, why don't you give me a face, and leave after lunch."
Like He Lang's thoughts, since there is no way to become a teammate, then at least make a good fate, and if Zhang Yifei can't go on in the future, he will have a chance to turn back.
Twenty-something is considered "old" for a formula driver, but for rally or track racing, it is still in the rookie stage and can enter the professional stage. You must know that on the rally track, even veterans in their thirties and forties abound, and age is not a problem.
The words have come to this point, and Zhang Yifei is not easy to refuse, so he asked Xu Hao to go to have a meal together.
During the process, He Lang and Xu Hao didn't mention joining the team again, they just had a meal and chatted, they were not the kind of people who stalked, sometimes people have their own ambitions and there is no need to force them.
It's just that He Lang still feels a little sorry for Zhang Yifei's choice of formula car, after all, in their eyes, Zhang Yifei is almost the same as knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and preferring to go to the tiger mountains.
After eating, Zhang Yifei and He Lang left each other's phone numbers and left, so they also bought mobile phones now, and it was convenient to contact them directly. And having said that, He Lang has been mixed in the European professional environment, maybe there will be places where he needs help in the future, many friends and many roads.
Looking at the back of Zhang Yifei leaving, Xu Hao said regretfully: "It's a pity, if he can receive vocational training now, maybe he will become a generation of Chinese car kings like his master." ”
"As he said, it could have been a challenge, and to be honest, I admired his courage."
He Lang next to him replied in a complicated tone, he didn't know whether to say that Zhang Yifei was stubborn, or that he insisted, at least this kind of courage to give up everything, he thought he couldn't do it.
"You have trained in Europe and know the professional process of karting, do you think Zhang Yifei can succeed with his current potential?"
Faced with this question, He Lang shook his head and replied: "Reason tells me that I can't, but emotionally I hope he can succeed, because he is taking a path that almost all Chinese drivers dare not take." ”
"yes, he took the path we didn't dare to take."
Xu Hao also sighed with emotion, there are few drivers who can give up everything like Zhang Yifei and do something that may be doomed to be in vain.
……
Not long after returning to the hotel, Zhang Yifei received a call from Lu Ningping, and the Toyota Youth Training Center had already given a reply, and the time for the trial was set.
Obtaining a trial place is already the biggest right that Lu Ningping can win for Zhang Yifei, after all, the seventeen-year-old karting newcomer has no potential to tap in the eyes of most teams.
If it weren't for the Toyota team's plan to hit F1, it needed newcomers from all echelons, and the training of junior karting in Asia was far inferior to that in Europe, Zhang Yifei would not even be able to get this trial place.
The time given by the Toyota team is very tight, and the visa problem must be solved within half a month, but fortunately, the Toyota team also gave an invitation letter with the official seal, as long as Zhang Yifei can come up with proof of assets, the visa problem is not big.
In order to ensure that the visa was passed, it was originally planned that Zhang Zhiguo would mail the information files, but Lu Ningping also went to Guangzhou and Shenzhen in person, and then took a plane to the East China Sea, and finally went to the East China Sea Consulate with Zhang Yifei for an interview.
I was fully prepared, but in fact it was much smoother than I imagined, after all, Toyota's Mitsui chaebol in Japan is one of the four major chaebols in Japan, and its invitation is still very heavy.
And the formation of the F1 team is the most important preparation for Toyota's racing division at this stage, so Toyota has given more help than expected. Even FAW Toyota China's Preparatory Department also greeted the consulate and let Zhang Yifei pass the visa smoothly.
Another point is that Zhang Yifei's asset certificate is more than he imagined before, and the deposit alone is as high as 2 million, not counting the fixed assets such as repairing shops and real estate.
To be honest, Zhang Yifei was a little surprised when he saw these times, he originally thought that his family was only a million yuan, but now it seems that the old man is much richer than he imagined. In this era, opening a car repair shop does not have too much competitive pressure, and there are more government buses, which is really profitable.
But then again, the old man is a member of the professional maintenance team, and his technology is already the top batch of auto mechanics, and any industry is making money at the top of the pyramid, and after more than ten years of accumulation, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to have two million.
Coming out of the consulate, Zhang Yifei sighed with emotion: "The old man is really rich." ”
"What are these words, do you still want to beat your father?"
Lu Ningping reprimanded angrily, this kid is getting bigger and smaller.
"It's just a bit of a surprise to have any ideas."
After finishing his emotion, Zhang Yifei changed the topic and continued to ask: "Uncle Lu, when are we going to Japan?" ”
"The sooner the better, go back to Guangshen and prepare to pass."
Now it has been a week since Japan sent out the invitation letter, which means that Zhang Yifei only has a week to prepare.
It takes another day to return to Guangshen, and it takes another day to go to Japan, and it can really be used for five days, so it's naturally better to hurry up.
"Okay, now I'm going to call a tow truck to transport the Mitsubishi EVO back, let's go back as soon as possible."
At noon the next day, Zhang Yifei and Lu Ningping returned to Guangshen, and then began to pack their luggage or something. Because as long as the trial is successful this time, Zhang Yifei will basically live in Japan for a long time in the next period of time.
Unlike going to Hong Kong Island, it is much more difficult and expensive to come back from Japan. So before leaving, Zhang Yifei still went to see Wang Glasses and said goodbye to him.
Anyway, it's also one of the few friends in this world, plus I haven't seen him for a few months, let's see how this kid is.
When I came to the college entrance examination education and training center that Wang Glasses said before, Zhang Yifei saw a four-eyed boy from a distance, and followed behind a girl with a cower, the four-eyed boy was Wang Glasses, and the female Zhang Yifei also knew that it was Lu Xiaoman in his class.
When he saw this scene, Zhang Yifei suddenly understood why Wang Glasses immediately followed the request for leave and said what training class he was going to.
At the time, I thought it was because I was gone, Wang Glasses was bored in the class and simply went outside the school to receive college entrance examination guidance, but I didn't expect that the real reason for this kid's leave was to come over to be a licking dog!
