How Did I Become an F1 Driver?-Chapter 113 - 88: Short-Term Plans

People are like this—when they get an inch, they want a mile. And let’s not mention that Qin Miao is still young and lacks the life experience to determine if their actions are inappropriate. They do whatever comes to mind.

"Actually, we could ask Zhou Guanyu," Qin Miao explained. "Although Zhou Guanyu is Chinese, he moved to the UK in 2012 and has been here for almost eight years now. After staying here for so long, he’s practically half a local. We outsiders might struggle to find a suitable training venue, but for someone like him, who’s involved in the industry, it might just be a matter of a thought."

"Really?" Qimeng was a bit surprised. "I thought he just came to the UK to race."

Qin Miao explained patiently, "There are people who race in China, but honestly, the professionalism, market acceptance, and the training of young drivers in domestic racing are all far less than abroad by a thousandfold.

Although it sounds hurtful, when it comes to racing circles, abroad is the best." At this point, Qin Miao felt somewhat aggrieved, but he couldn’t do anything about it. After all, the automobile industry’s development in China started too late.

Among many European countries, the UK is one of those where racing culture is most prevalent. You should know that the first F1 Grand Prix was held in the UK at Silverstone, and many F1 team headquarters are also located in the UK, all because of the strong racing atmosphere and well-equipped facilities here.

So, considering his future career as a driver, it makes sense that Zhou Guanyu would come to the UK to study and live, right?"

Qimeng nodded in understanding, but at this moment, the two were on the phone, so Qin Miao couldn’t see Qimeng’s expression.

"It’s always inconvenient to chat on the phone. Why don’t you come back, and we can talk face to face."

"Alright, where are you now?"

"In the restaurant below the hotel, just not far from the entrance. You should be able to see it when you come in."

"On my way!"

While waiting for Qimeng, Qin Miao sent a message to Zhou Guanyu on WeChat.

[Are you awake?]

[Need to ask you something. Recently, I can’t leave the UK due to visa issues, but I don’t want to stop my professional training during this time. Do you know of a suitable place for car training?]

When chatting, Qin Miao doesn’t like to send a [Are you there?] and then reveal their purpose after the other person responds.

Qin Miao prefers to lay out their entire purpose at once. This way, when the other person sees the message, they’ll respond right away. This approach saves time for both parties.

Qin Miao expected Zhou Guanyu might take a while to reply, but surprisingly, Zhou responded shortly after the second message was sent.

[I’m awake]

[It’s actually simple]

[Hold on while I check]

After saying this, Zhou didn’t reply anymore, and Qin Miao thought Zhou might have gone to get dressed, wash up, or something.

Qin Miao just replied with a [Got it]

More than ten minutes later, Zhou Guanyu sent another message.

[Luckily, there are no races occupying Silverstone Circuit recently. Our team will also train at Silverstone, and you can come and use the track. No one will bother you.] fгeewebnovёl.com

Upon seeing Zhou Guanyu’s message, Qin Miao was extremely surprised.

Because many teams have their headquarters in the UK, Silverstone Circuit, the venue for the British Grand Prix, is not a track that’s open to the public year-round.

Qin Miao, who had specifically checked this information, was well aware that on occasional open days, the track is usually packed.

Originally, Qin Miao thought that participating in the British Grand Prix might just allow them to experience Silverstone Circuit on a simulator. But now, according to Zhou Guanyu, it seems they’re allowed to actually drive on Silverstone Circuit?

This opportunity is truly a once-in-a-lifetime chance for Qin Miao.

Qin Miao’s happiness was not solely because they could easily practice on Silverstone Circuit. For someone passionate about racing, having the chance to drive a car on a famous track is already a very happy thing.

Especially since this track hosted an F1 Grand Prix just yesterday.

Now Qin Miao clearly understood why Qimeng always encouraged them to expand their network. Sometimes, things that might seem troublesome to you could be resolved with a simple request from someone you know.

[Amazing! Boss Zhou, your capabilities leave me awestruck!]

[Glad you know. Next time in CSGO... you know?]

[Of course, from now on, I won’t end a game with more than 4750, and your sniper rifle will never be lacking]

[Hmm... Qin, you’ve got the right instincts, your future is boundless (witty)]

[Of course, of course (dog head)]

...

The two chatted casually for a bit, and soon after, Qimeng, carrying two bags, walked in from outside the hotel restaurant.

In an instant, this girl spotted Qin Miao standing out among the crowd of blonde, blue-eyed foreigners speaking with an old London accent.

After sitting down next to Qin Miao with the stuff, Qimeng said, "The visa matters are sorted out, now we’re just waiting for the results. They said it shouldn’t be too difficult, just need to wait a bit, at least 7 working days."

It was basically what was discussed over the phone.

"Are you hungry?" Qin Miao wasn’t worried about that, fully trusting in Qimeng’s abilities.
