Chapter 162: Crossing the Benchmark (I)
After sending away some "reluctant to give up" and wanting to stay for a few days to interview Ye Feng, the short two-day vacation finally came to an end. Lao Ye, who returned to the team, finally saw the other three drivers in the locker room. Schumacher Jr. was obviously in a good mood because he beat Montoya to finish fourth in the first race, and he said hello to Ye Feng more rarely. And Pizzonia still looks like he doesn't smile, and as for Montoya, people didn't look at Ye Feng at all.
Then Ye Feng was soon called into the office by Serena Sr. and had a long conversation behind closed doors. The content of the long conversation was unknown to no one except the person concerned, but it soon became clear to the entire team that the Chinese driver would soon be "relegated" to the F3000 race. People thought that Ye Feng would improve the competitiveness of the Williams team by a notch, but after more than 1 month, it has become the current situation, and many people are lamenting that things in this world are changing too quickly.
However, Lao Ye knew where his direction was, and in the conversation with Old Williams, Ye Feng said very little, but there was one sentence that completely expressed his inner thoughts:
"Frank, I won't say anything superfluous! In short, even if I am participating in the F3000 race, I will work hard to complete the normal training tasks of our team! No matter when the team needs me, I will be back as soon as possible! ”
After saying these words, Ye Feng took his uplink bag and stepped on the F3000 alone
The plane landed slowly, and after a short flight, Lao Ye had already set foot on the land of Paris, France. In fact, Ye Feng's ultimate destination is France's neighbor Switzerland. There is the Sauber F3000 team that Lao Ye will play in, and there is also the owner of the Shure F1 Sauber team, Pete Brown. Sauber. Due to the fact that the Racing Wind Extreme Speed RC team was nervously preparing for the 04RC French station in Le Mans City in northwest France at this time, Ye Feng, who was nervously preparing for the 04RC French station, should also go to comfort the team members. However, Lao Ye did not inform anyone in the team in advance, he wanted to surprise everyone.
After a three-hour bus ride, Ye Feng finally came to the city with the famous Le Mans circuit and the 24-hour endurance race. However, what Lao Ye does not know is that soon the F3000 will also be at Le Mans this season's French race
It was almost evening, Ye Feng finally took a taxi to the hotel where the convoy was temporarily staying according to the address left by Romario. Without saying a word, Lao Ye went straight upstairs, and coincidentally in the elevator, Lao Ye met Zheng Xiao, who was dressed casually and was much more energetic than before
"Hey! Why did you kid run over without saying a word? How? Isn't it stupid to practice F1 every day? "At a glance, it was Ye Feng. Zheng Xiao didn't have the consciousness of a handsome guy and policeman at all, he first grabbed Lao Ye, who was half his head down, and then ignored the "disappointed" gaze of several French beauties in the elevator and said with a wicked smile at Lao Ye.
"Day! The hands and feet are still so heavy! Didn't you see that several beauties were misunderstood? Let go, I'm not a 'comrade'! After being caught by Zheng Xiao's "clutches", Lao Ye shouted in Chinese while struggling. In fact, such a situation is not uncommon in the extreme speed of the wind, because in ordinary times, Ye Feng and Zheng Xiao are the two "living treasures" in the team, the difference is that Zheng Xiao always plays a handsome guy, and Lao Ye is always a "harlequin" who is "angry".
"Yes! My arms are thicker than before, and my chest muscles feel a lot thicker to the touch. It seems that you kid has worked hard in the UK! Not bad, not bad! But why do you always like to do surprise attacks, you kid? First ran to England without a sound, and then now it's here, is there a place like you to be the boss? Zheng Xiao didn't care about Lao Ye's complaints at all. Still sitting on Ye Feng's body, he said with a pinch.
"Hey! Didn't I want to surprise everyone! So I didn't inform you in advance! Lao Ye said depressedly while struggling, but fortunately, at this time, the elevator stopped, and Lao Ye finally broke free from Zheng Xiao's clutches and ran towards the convoy's room first.
"Haha! You kid have a hard mouth! Could it be that running away from the country is also a surprise for everyone? You kid just wait for Lao Gu to clean you up! Zheng Xiao didn't chase after Lao Ye either. Instead, he said with a strange smile behind Ye Feng
Without waiting for Zheng Xiao to finish speaking, Ye Feng knocked on Gu Qing's door, and it was Gu Qing who opened the door. However, after seeing Lao Ye with a smile on his face, the number one driver who was racing the wind and fast really punched Lao Ye twice in the chest "fiercely" as Zheng Xiao said, and then took Lao Ye in his arms like Zheng Xiao just now. Lao Ye, who was unguarded, suddenly regretted that he didn't listen to Zheng Xiao's "advice" at this time. And while following the other party into the door, Lao Ye thought depressedly, since he accidentally "hooked up" with Gu Linyi. This Gu Qing seems to have a tendency to become more and more violent
After a period of laughter and fighting, Gu Qing's room also began to be lively with the arrival of Lao Ye. Everyone learned about Ye Feng's arrival here, and people also came over to visit the boss who had just "escaped" a while ago. And Romario also received the news at this time, and after the convoy dispersed, the last one walked into Gu Qing's room
"Ye Feng, why did you come to France at this time? Don't you have to train in the Williams team? I heard that you weren't brought to Australia last time, but you still dare to run here at this time? After carefully examining Lao Ye, Romario spoke, and the content was not what Lao Ye expected, that is, criticism, criticism, and criticism.
"Oh! Rory, I was originally going to fly to Zurich, Switzerland, and I made a special transfer to France to see you! Ye Feng finally broke free from the clutches of Zheng and Gu, and obediently sat next to the beautiful Zhang Yu who came with the team and said.
"Huh? What are you doing in Zurich? Did something happen to you in Williams? Hurry up and tell everyone about it! After listening to Ye Feng's words, Romario frowned even more. He vaguely felt that something was not quite right with Lao Ye's arrival this time.
"Actually, it's nothing. It was because of my poor results that the Williams team didn't want me to show up in the training session before the race. Then BMW put me in touch with a driver's seat for Sauber F Racing, and I was here to represent Sauber in the Euro) race! ”
Ye Feng tried his best to narrate his experience during this time in a nonchalant tone. However, even so, several people present frowned after listening to Lao Yedi's words. It's no wonder that this matter is not a matter in the eyes of Lao Ye, the "Xibei Goods", and anyone else must feel that this situation is very serious. This is Williams, this is an F card powerhouse! According to Ye Feng's words, he was abandoned by the team to some extent.
"Hey! You kid has only been seeing you for a few days and you've made things so bad? How could you waste such a rare opportunity so easily? Romario was really anxious this time, he even stood up and called Ye Feng. Everyone in the team knew that the person Ye Feng respected the most was Romario, but this old man also regarded Ye Feng as his own son and nephew. And just when the old man's voice had not yet fallen to the ground. Gu Qing's door to this room suddenly sounded a knock. Lao Ye can be regarded as having escaped
Gu Qing glared at Ye Feng at this time before opening the door, and quickly followed Gu Qing into a few tall foreigners. At this time, Romario and the others also stood up after seeing these people, and Zhang Yu and Romario also stepped forward to shake hands with a few foreigners.
"Ye Feng! Come here, this is Mr. Pierre, director of Citroen's local sports division, and his assistant, Mr. Pierre, this is Mr. Ye Feng, the owner of our Racing Extreme Team! Romario gestured to Ye Feng while introducing Ye Feng to several foreigners, one of whom was a tall middle-aged man with short brown hair who was Pierre in Romario's mouth. Previously, the contact between Hurricane and Citroen was all in charge of Romario, Zhang Yu and Zheng Xiao, so this was the first meeting between Pierre and Ye Feng.
"Hey! Mr. Ye. I've heard Mr. Romario mention you for a long time! However, I have never had the opportunity to meet you, and it is a great honor to meet you this time! As soon as Pierre heard that the little man opposite was the legendary Ye Feng, he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the old Ye Di's hand and said. For this partner who has never met. Pierre knows very well, and he is not only amazed but also sincerely admired by this young man who has brought together such names as car remodelers, F1 test drivers and private team owners.
"Monsieur Pierre, you are so gracious! For being able to work so closely with Citroën and with you. I am also very honored! I also hope that after receiving so much support from Citroen, we will be able to win more praise for Citroen racing in all races! Ye Feng is also playing official with the other party in English now, in fact, now Lao Ye is also a little afraid of seeing Citroen, because due to the relationship between Schultz and Ye Feng, BMW is replacing Citroen and Hurricane in the competition of all lines. If it weren't for the fact that BMW did not have a joint venture in China at this time, Ye Feng would have liked to replace the high-speed racing car in the CCC with a BMW 3 or 5 Series.
"Oh! That's our happiness for each other! By the way, tomorrow Citroën and Hurricane will have a joint roadshow at Le Mans! There we will be showcasing the entire line of new Snow Rail 04 generation cars! And your team will be showcasing your new cars! If Mr. Ye Feng, you are interested. Try driving our new 24 Hours of Le Mans in one of our new cars ready for the 24 Hours of Le Mans at the Circuit de Le Mans! Pierre continued to say to Ye Feng, in fact, he is here now to negotiate with the person in charge of Hurricane Speed for tomorrow's joint roadshow, but he didn't expect to meet Ye Feng.
"Oh this" Old Ye was now a little afraid that Romario was still angry, and after secretly glancing at the old man and finding that it was okay, Ye Feng continued, "That's an honor!" To be honest, I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's test drive! ”
When Ye Feng said this, his eyes were looking at Gu Qing and Zheng Xiao, and he also saw the same excitement in the eyes of the other two people! Drive? With such a free good thing, Lao Ye will never let it go! Not even go-karts! And Lao Ye to be honest, he also wants to fight with Gu Qing and Zheng Xiao again and try his recent training results
