153 Special Personal Training (Chapter 1)
He Lang had previously trained at the Citroën Driver Academy in the UK and had lived overseas for a long time, so he must know some international students or overseas Chinese, and it should not be difficult for him to find a professional English tutor.
The time was urgent, so Zhang Yifei did not hesitate and directly dialed He Lang's phone.
Yanjing Subaru Racing Club, He Lang looked at Zhang Yifei's name displayed on his phone, and he was surprised. Didn't this kid go to the Toyota youth team in Japan, why did he suddenly call, could it be that the formula car is not progressing well?
With this doubt, He Lang pressed the connect button, and Zhang Yifei's voice soon came from the other end of the phone.
"He Lang, I have something I want to ask you for help."
Zhang Yifei didn't have false politeness, and directly asked for help straight to the point.
"What's the matter, you say."
When he was at the Donghai Volkswagen Circuit, He Lang promised that he knew some people in the European circle, and if Zhang Yifei needed any help, he could contact him directly.
The man is a promise, so even if he is not very familiar with Zhang Yifei, He Lang did not shirk any help in the face of a request for help.
"I'm playing at Euro 2000 in Renault, but there are people in the team who don't speak English very well, and they have zero foundation. So if you want to find an English private tutor and help them improve their English skills as soon as possible, I don't know if you have anyone you know. ”
"You're at Euro 2000 in Renault?"
He Lang has lived in Europe for a long time, so he is naturally familiar with some professional automobile events in Europe.
Formula Renault can be said to be the hottest primary formula in Europe at present, because last year British Renault, a driver named Kimi, won the championship with sweeping results, and was directly favored by the F1 Sauber team, and it is very likely to complete the legendary triple jump and become an F1 driver directly from Formula Renault.
It is precisely because of this miracle that many European formula drivers are very excited, and they have set their sights on the Renault 2000 European Cup, intending to show their skills to replicate the miracle of Kimi's success.
Therefore, this Renault 2000 European Cup, it can be said that the strong are like clouds, and it should only take three months for Zhang Yi to fly to Japan to try out the Toyota Academy, and he can be upgraded from a youth student to a Renault player in three months?
"That's right, I'm already in Milan, Italy, and the first race will be at Monza the day after tomorrow, so if you have a choice, you can come to Milan and see me."
Hearing that Zhang Yifei was in Milan, the shock in He Lang's heart was even more incomprehensible, he had already seen Zhang Yifei's talent in racing before, and gave him a high evaluation.
It's just that now it seems that he is still too conservative, this kid can no longer be seen from the perspective of Asian drivers, and has reached the same level of genius as European drivers.
However, the problem of finding an English private tutor is still a little difficult for He Lang, and in the European Chinese circle he knows, English and Chinese are a lot stronger. But the problem is that the age is different from the circle he is in contact with, and he is suitable for being an English private trainer, and he really can't think of a suitable person.
After all, He Lang is a professional racing driver, not a teacher in an education and training institution, he has been back to China for a year or two, so how can he care about who will be an English private teacher?
But soon a suitable candidate flashed in He Lang's mind, this person Zhang Yifei also knew, it was his sister He Ziling.
Now that the college entrance examination has ended, He Ziling was admitted to Imperial College London, and because of the reasons that his family has cultivated since childhood, He Ziling's English ability far exceeds that of his peers, and there is no problem in the European environment.
In addition, the start time in the UK is later than that of domestic universities, and it usually arrives in October. It's only mid-July, and I have two or three months of free time, which can help Zhang Yifei solve the team's communication problems temporarily, and then slowly look for more suitable translation talents.
It's just that He Lang doesn't know if his sister is willing to agree, after all, He Ziling is the baby bump of the He family.
"Yifei, I have a candidate on my side, but I'm not sure if she wants to, I need to ask her first about her wishes."
"It doesn't matter, I can give the top in terms of treatment."
Zhang Yifei is on the table for such a money-burning game as formula racing, there is no need to pick out the English personal trainer for this money, as long as the person recommended by He Lang is passable, the treatment is easy to say.
"It's not about money, or even without money."
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Yifei didn't understand.
"You'll know when the time comes, I'll contact you tomorrow."
After speaking, He Lang hung up the phone, the reason why he recommended He Ziling was actually to help Zhang Yifei save money.
Because he knows the degree of money burning in formula cars, Zhang Yifei is not from a rich family, a Chinese can compete in the European arena, and has completed many things that domestic drivers dare not think of, which He Lang admires Zhang Yifei very much, and it is also the main reason why he is willing to help unconditionally.
People often can't become heroes, but that doesn't prevent them from admiring heroes, and if Zhang Yifei can really make it to F1, then he will be the driver who will create a new era of Chinese racing, which is no exaggeration.
Zhang Yifei has already passed the starting point, and He Lang is eager to see where his end is.
Back at the hotel in Milan, Zhang Yifei originally planned to take Brother Zhi and Ah Hu to go shopping on the streets at night.
It's a trip to Europe, and Italy has the culture of ancient Rome, so tourism has always been a strength.
It's just that the intensity of today's test run still far exceeded the previous expectations, and it took more than three hours to complete the car tuning. When he returned to the hotel, Zhang Yifei was exhausted, gritted his teeth after taking a shower, did an hour of physical exercise in the hotel gym, and fell asleep.
The next morning, Zhang Yifei got up early to go to the hotel's gym to exercise, and the more tired he was, the more he could feel the lack of physical fitness.
Formula Renault is only 200P horsepower, and F1 will at least triple in the future, and it will also break 100 speeds, Renault 2000 cars take more than 4 seconds, while F1 only takes 2 seconds.
The change in time will bring about a geometric increase in the weight of the G-value, and in every corner in the future, Zhang Yifei will feel the acceleration pressure of 3 to 5 by the weight of the body.
Tiredness and hard work are certain, but Zhang Yifei does not dare to relax his requirements for himself, behind the success there are efforts that others cannot see, which needs to rely on the accumulation of little by little at ordinary times.
When he finished his workout and was about to eat breakfast, Zhang Yifei saw Yamamoto Ukyo come out, his eyes were full of bloodshots, and it was obvious that he hadn't rested well last night.
As soon as he saw Zhang Yifei, Yamamoto Ukyo handed over a notebook and said: "This is my data analysis of all seven corners of the Monza circuit last night, combined with the F1 drivers' cornering trajectory map, you can take a good look today." ”
Looking at the dense analysis on the notes, Zhang Yifei understood the reason why Yamamoto Youkyo was full of bloodshots, behind any successful driver, there is a top team to help him support, and Yamamoto Youkyo as a race engineer is the most important cornerstone.
"Thank you."
Zhang Yifei didn't know what to say, so he could only simply say thank you.
"Yifei-kun, you're welcome, I'm your race engineer, this is what should be done."
Yamamoto Ukyo is still the typical science and engineering man's style, with the old-fashioned politeness of the Japanese.
At this time, Zhang Yifei's mobile phone rang, and the caller was He Lang.
