After years of sharpening his sword, Raikkonen finally reached the top of the world at this moment.

Now, after a series of celebrations, Raikkonen still maintains his trademark somewhat cold smile, but the surging thoughts that swell inside him are refracted from his eyes.

Unlike drivers like Ye Feng and Alonso, who have already achieved the highest glory early in their careers, Raikkonen has had seven seasons of ups and downs to get to this point. At this time, he no longer had the rashness and indulgence of his youth, and all he had in his heart was the ups and downs of his seven years and the heavy accumulation after he had experienced too many expectations and failures.

Therefore, Raikkonen's mood at the moment is a complexity that Ye Feng and Alonso could not understand when they each reached the top, and Ye Feng, who has also experienced a series of hard run-ins this season, seems to be able to understand the emotion of his teammates to some extent. Without too many words, he and Raikkonen's hands were just tightly clasped together. And Ye Feng is also sincerely happy for the iceman at the moment, if nothing else, just for his persistence that has lasted for seven years, which is awe-inspiring!

Maybe in the eyes of others, Raikkonen's championship came somewhat with some drama and luck, and even in the end, without Ye Feng's help, he couldn't get it at all. But Ye Feng doesn't think so, as a teammate, he has witnessed with his own eyes what kind of predicament the Finns are still moving forward bravely, and he knows how much sweat and hard work this teammate has put in for today's moment!

God rewards hard work, after tenaciously persevering until the last moment. Raikkonen could have accepted God's reward for his diligence and perseverance with a smile......

……

The 07 season has ended with a spectacular but dramatic ending, and the teams are starting to take a break from work. After returning to Italy. Harvest the year-end fourth ground leaf maple soon also from let. Todd received the team's reward at the end of the season: a check for $5.5 million.

The amount is determined based on what the driver has achieved for the team this season. It is worth mentioning that the amount of the check that Ye Feng received was exactly the same as the check that Raikkonen, who won the championship. For the first time in the history of Ferrari Ground a driver who didn't win the championship received as much prize money as the winner.

This also shows that at least the current Ferrari management has fully recognized Ye Feng's performance this season, and at the same time regards his contribution to the team as important as the Iceman. This can also show that Ye Feng's first season in Ferrari can be summed up by the word success, the only regret is that he failed to defend the title, but Todd has once again made it clear to Ye Feng that he will fully support him in the championship next season.

It is said that getting such a large sum of money is enough for Lao Ye to have a good carnival for a while. But because he has already passed the stage of poverty and whiteness. Now Ye Feng's sense of joy after getting a large amount of money has become weaker and weaker, he has taken the check of 63 million US dollars, and now the more than 5 million US dollars really can't make Ye Feng have more joy.

Maybe it's a coincidence, not long after Lao Ye got the bonus, Zhang Yu also summarized most of Ye Fengdi's income and expenditure accounts this season. Ye Feng's annual salary is $63 million, and the post-race bonuses he received after participating in more than a dozen Grand Prix races this season add up to about $7 million, plus the team's award of 550 euros at the end of the season, Ye Feng received about $77.5 million from Ferrari alone this season. (These are after-tax figures)

Ye Feng's income in advertising, sponsorship and endorsement merchandise was due to the fact that Ye Feng's portrait rights belonged to Scuderia Ferrari in the previous contract. Therefore, Ye Feng can only extract 25% of all the income obtained from Ye Feng's portrait and popularity, so Ye Feng is bringing back $45 million in advertising, sponsorship and endorsement revenue to the Ferrari team.

Therefore, the addition of the two items means that Ye Feng has earned a huge check of C dollars in just one season in 07 years! This is also basically the same as the income of the car king before retirement.

Although this figure is still a little worse than the perennial No. 1 Tiger Woods on the sports Forbes list, whose income is as high as 100 million US dollars this year, Ye Feng undoubtedly put the golden boy Hoya , Mikkelsen, Raikkonen, Schumacher, Beckham, Kobe Bryant and others who were still in front of him on this list last year. Became the second person in the world sports after Woods! Moreover, Ye Feng is only 24 years old now, and if he can continue to perform, it is only a matter of time before he overtakes Woods to become the number one paid superstar in the sports world.

However, it is only the statistics of Ye Feng's ability to make money. In fact, in addition to being able to continuously suck in huge amounts of wealth

The ability to spend money can also be ranked among the best in the world.

According to Zhang Yu's financial report, the 07 season of the RC and Chinese track racing teams alone cost Ye Feng $3,500, although the sponsorship of some advertisers finally reduced the figure to $20 million, but this burn is enough to shock most people in the world. Coupled with some miscellaneous expenses, in fact, the real amount that can fall into Ye Feng's pocket every year is only about 6,000 US dollars.

In addition, Ye Feng's annual money for charity is at least 600 US dollars, basically Ye Feng donates all the prize money he earns from each annual competition.

Although Ye Feng understands that such a figure and the speed of donating money are undoubtedly far from catching up with the 120 million pounds donation that Senna had created fifteen years ago. But at present, it is extremely rare for a person like Lao Ye, who has not lived a few days of money, to do this.

However, what puzzled Lao Ye was that Senna once told him that helping others was a thing that made him feel happy, but after donating so much money every year, Ye Feng did not have the kind of fulfillment that the car god said.

"You can't get joy out of giving because you haven't really understood what philanthropy really is. Simply donating money is not really charity! After seeing Ye Feng staring at the ledger in a daze, Cheshen, who knew what this guy was thinking, said lightly, "In fact, for the charity I am talking about, donations are just a formality, and it is important for people to do what they can to help others!"

You donate money but don't enjoy the corresponding satisfaction because you treat the donation as a formality. You think that if you donate, you will be at peace and have a noble character, but this is not the case. Charity isn't about how much money you donate, it's about what you actually do for others! Only those who truly devote themselves to helping others will be able to derive great enjoyment and satisfaction from their righteous deeds.

So, if I were you, not only would you donate in the future, but you would also use those donations and your own abilities to do something to help others. Simply donating money and letting it go is, in my opinion, extremely irresponsible, both for the person being donated and for yourself! Now is the right time for you to be on vacation, a good opportunity to do something! ”

……

After "learning from the car god", Ye Feng, who began to take a vacation, began to be busy again, first of all, he began to make a more detailed plan for this year's donation with his assistants. Due to the complexity of the procedures, Ye Feng did not set up a foundation named after himself, but invested millions of dollars in Jackie Chan's foundation.

And this huge wealth, which will increase every year, Ye Feng is ready to invest part of it in the education of those backward and poor areas of his motherland, and the initial plan is to build three hope primary schools every year at the rate of sending more than 100 hope primary schools to the motherland and compatriots in the next two or three decades. At the same time, Ye Feng is also ready to set aside special funds to give additional rewards to the children in these schools who are excellent in character and learning.

The other part of the money, Ye Feng, wants to invest in the construction of the infrastructure of China's motorsports. After several years of continuous development, a lot of high-level competition venues have been built for Chinese racing, but there is still a great lack of venues for ordinary people to practice racing and conduct some amateur competitions, and in China, there are almost no high-level schools that can train excellent racing drivers, and drivers are basically trained separately after being discovered by the team, which undoubtedly greatly limits the discovery and training of high-level drivers in China.

Therefore, in response to this phenomenon, after a few detailed discussions with the newly appointed acting chairman of the China Automobile Federation, Li Tianxing, Ye Feng decided to unite the strength of the China Automobile Federation to do something for Chinese racing through his charitable donations.

These things include the establishment of China's first motorsport school in line with the world level, and at the rate of building one or two basic track racing tracks in China every year, a relatively popular domestic racing infrastructure network will be initially established within ten years, and relying on such a track network resource, a youth track racing competition system covering all ages will be gradually developed in China corresponding to the top adult racing competitions, so that China's racing will gradually be in line with the world. It will become the kind of perfect event resource system and perfect driver training and selection mechanism that will cover all drivers from childhood to adulthood.

As the beginning of all this, the first "Chunmiao Cup" Youth Karting Grand Prix sponsored by Ye Feng is being prepared intensively at the Longquan Circuit in Sichuan.
