Reborn during the early days of China’s reform and opening, the narrator finds himself in the 1980s countryside. In this setting, the past is still a cold reference, yet it is also a fresh start....
Guan Dahai won first place in the second group preliminaries, but the other two cars failed to qualify for the finals.
However, the results were better than those of the gasoline group. In this group, all six cars completed the race, with one group finishing fourth and the other fifth.
As a result, in the manufacturer group preliminaries, each South Bay team has one car entering tomorrow's final.
The preliminaries of the manufacturer group are over, and the next step is the preliminaries of the last level, the women's group.
Since it is called Jinguo, it must be a girl.
Unlike track racing more than a decade later where men and women competed together, the current women's race is still all girls.
Wan Feng couldn't believe that there were so many women playing racing, and the women's group actually had four groups competing.
Moreover, these female drivers are very capable when they run, truly demonstrating that women are as good as men.
Wan Feng had a bad feeling in his heart, but after thinking about it for a long time, he finally figured out where this bad feeling came from.
By 11:00 am, the preliminaries of Group AB, Group AB Club, Manufacturers Cup Group and Women's Group were all over.
Goodyear Off-Road was the best performing team, with two cars reaching the finals in almost every event.
Yi Binghua was in a good mood, but when he thought about the guy behind him whose team also had two cars enter the final of the Manufacturer's Cup, he felt as uncomfortable as if a fly had landed on his tongue.
After the game, Yi Binghua stood up and tried to leave when Wan Feng stopped him, "Boss Yi! Don't go! Your meal money won't count, right?"
You want to leave without even saying a word? Do you really think I've never been in this world?
Although Yi Binghua had a cold face, he had nothing to say. He couldn't just deny admitting that he lost the bet in front of everyone.
Wan Feng snapped his fingers. "Guo Xian! Tell me which restaurant in Beijing has the most expensive food?"
"Of course it's the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. After all, it's a place for receiving foreign guests. The quality of the food and service there is first-class."
Wan Feng was choked by Guo Xian's words.
Diaoyutai State Guesthouse? This guy really dares to think that. Are we qualified to enter?
"Besides that?"
“NOBUBeijing...”
"Foreigners don't count. What delicious food can they make?"
"Then it would have to be Beihu No. 9 Theme Restaurant, Cheng Mansion Banquet, and Mei Mansion Family Banquet, but they all require reservations in advance."
Wan Feng, No. 9 Beihu Lake, was not quite sure. After all, he was a farmer in his previous life and could not reach that level at all.
However, he still knew a little about Cheng Mansion Banquet and Mei Mansion Family Banquet on the Internet.
Mei Mansion Family Banquet is said to be the favorite private dish of Peking Opera master Mei Lanfang during his lifetime.
The Cheng Mansion Banquet has an even more impressive background. It is a restaurant opened by the family of a chef who served the current emperor for 22 years.
"Make an appointment in advance? Does that mean I can't have lunch today?"
"That's what I mean."
"Oh, that's a shame. Why did you make an appointment?"
"Boss Wan! Business is booming, so of course you have to make a reservation. If you want to eat, you can make a reservation in the evening."
"Haha! I'm afraid Mr. Yi will run away and no one will pay the bill."
Yi Binghua was so angry that his ears flapped. Am I that kind of person?
"Then let's reserve a banquet for tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. Just hold a celebration party or something. Mr. Yi, is there any problem with the Cheng Mansion banquet tomorrow night?"
Yi Binghua said nothing but nodded.
"Oh, and we're also having a celebration banquet, so I don't think it would be convenient for you to be there. Don't get me wrong, it's not that we feel bad for you eating those few bites of food, but we're concerned about your health. What if we win one or two championships and you're celebrating with a heart attack? That would be difficult to handle, right? So, just send someone over to pick up the tab."
Yi Binghua felt that there was nothing wrong with his cardiovascular system, but there was something wrong with his stomach, and he was about to explode with anger.
Why do you feel bad about me spending money?
The Cheng Mansion Banquet is not cheap, more than 1,000 yuan per person, this guy brought his fleet of cars...
Oh my god, there are quite a lot of people here. I'm afraid they will get about 30,000 or 40,000 yuan, and I spend so much money but can't even get a bite.
This guy is still thinking about the championship?
"If Mr. Yi finds it troublesome, he doesn't need to send anyone. He can just call them in advance. I don't think Mr. Yi would disappear for a small sum of money. What if he really disappears? Guo Xian! Should we find a reporter to accompany him? In case Mr. Yi doesn't settle the account, we can write a report to spread his reputation or something?"
Yi Binghua got angry: "Where do you get all that nonsense from?"
"Look at you, Mr. Yi! At your level, you have to maintain your composure. Even if you suffer a great injustice, you have to keep a smile on your face. You can't stand this? Are you so angry that you want to curse? That's because you don't understand me yet. If you understood me, you wouldn't want to curse, and you would hit me."
Yi Binghua felt that he had met a rogue, and if he continued to listen to this guy's nonsense, he might have a relapse of his heart disease.
So, he stormed off in a huff, and as he stepped down from the podium, he said to his entourage, "Find out who the owner of the Blue Ocean Racing team is. I want to find out who this guy is."
Wan Feng looked at Yi Binghua's back and chuckled.
Even a fool like this can be sent to the hospital with just words, without any tricks.
Don't think that you are invulnerable just because you become a boss.
"Boss Wan! Are we really going to book a table at the Cheng Mansion Banquet?"
"Why not book? Some people would rather spend money than eat here. Book six tables, each for 5,000 yuan."
Guo Xian went to contact them immediately.
On this side, Guo Xian was contacting the hotel for Wan Feng, and on the other side, Yi Binghua's men were collecting detailed information about the Blue Ocean Team for Yi Binghua.
An hour later, a document was handed to Yi Binghua.
After reading Wan Feng's profile, Yi Binghua looked dazed.
The sponsor behind the Blue Ocean Team is Nanwan Group.
Nanwan Group’s main business is car manufacturing. What kind of cars does it manufacture?
The Great Wall, the official car used by government officials, was built by them, and the Peak Off-Road bikes they used for competitions were also built by them.
It has also produced pickup trucks, microvans, and a series of small cars including the Qingfeng, Xiongfeng, and Hurricane.
There are also trucks and motorcycles.
They started to form the team last year and hired the well-known domestic rally driver Lu Ningjun and Lai Baogui as coaches and drivers.
Yi Binghua took a deep breath. This was no longer just a brick on the roadside. He never expected that a dinosaur would run into the small racing field.
Lu Ningjun was actually in his convoy, no wonder this guy dared to bet with him.
Damn it, the loss is not unfair.
But when he thought about the boss's behavior, Yi Binghua was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
How come you, the boss of such a big group, act like a street thug?
But looking back at myself, isn’t it the same feeling!
It seems that the people behind these successful people are the same as ordinary people!
Yi Binghua began to scratch his head.
Anyone who can take on the official car project is no ordinary person, so this is a bit boring.
