So, waving his hand, he entered the human corridor prepared for him by the staff.
Walking, he kept thanking the staff around: "Sorry for causing trouble for you all."
After Qin Miao came out, the fans at the scene just kept filming Qin Miao with their phones, and no one came to surround him. They were relatively restrained.
Qin Miao, followed by a large group of people, arrived at the airport parking lot.
After arriving at the parking lot, Qin Miao found an Alfa Romeo parked by the roadside using the location on his phone.
Seeing this car, many people’s eyes lit up, and those following Qin Miao saw him carrying his luggage and getting into the passenger seat of the car.
Some sharp-eyed people naturally noticed Zhou Guanyu in the driver’s seat wearing sunglasses.
But by then, it was a bit too late to regret not taking out their phones to take photos throughout.
After getting in the car, Qin Miao waved to the fans behind him and then left.
...
"What’s with this situation? Such a big scene just arriving off a plane?" Zhou Guanyu, who had picked up Qin Miao, asked curiously, looking at the large crowd that had just followed Qin Miao.
Qin Miao tossed his backpack onto the back seat while explaining: "I don’t know either. Right after getting off the plane, I saw so many people blocking the door, and I was shocked.
I think my flight information must have been leaked."
"Even private flight information can get leaked?" Although Zhou Guanyu doesn’t live in China, he has a general understanding of fans and celebrities at the airport in China.
Qin Miao stretched and said: "After I got back, I gave my crew a vacation until after the New Year, so no one was there to fly the plane for me today, I came by regular airline."
Zhou Guanyu paused, then shrugged: "No wonder."
Qin Miao suddenly remembered something and said to Zhou Guanyu: "Wait for me."
Then Qin Miao took out his phone and posted a message on Weibo
[Thank you all for liking me. Truly, I’m overwhelmed, but it’s not encouraged to come fetch people at the airport. I’m just a somewhat accomplished lousy driver who can’t live up to your fondness.
The main problem is that doing so brings trouble to airport staff and wastes social resources, so even if you somehow find out my flight information in the future, don’t waste your time and energy coming over, spend more time with your family. Lastly, early Happy New Year to everyone, Happy New Year!]
After checking it over and confirming there were no problems, Qin Miao directly posted it without having it reviewed again by his agency.
Soon, comments started appearing under Qin Miao’s Weibo post.
[Ah? Where is Qin Miao? Shanghai?]
[Feels like I’ve missed a fortune]
[Little accomplished and lousy driver]
[This little accomplished and lousy driver is quite quirky]
[Little accomplished refers to two championships in two years, lousy driver refers to the youngest world champion in F1 history/dog face]
[I suspect, Qin Miao posted this not to advise us not to fetch him at the airport but to show off]
[Although, to be fair, if I were to put myself in the shoes of the airport staff, if my work suddenly increased, I’d indeed be annoyed]
[Since you’ve said so, I won’t go next time then]
...
After posting this Weibo, Qin Miao didn’t bother with it anymore. He’s not some righteous crusader, just a driver, mostly trying not to cause trouble for others.
"By the way, where’s my F2? Where did you put it?" After handling everything, Qin Miao suddenly asked.
Zhou Guanyu replied: "Shanghai, my family has a car dealership there, it’s placed in the middle of the shop as the store treasure.
Why? Planning to go back?"
Qin Miao: "Tsk tsk tsk, your family is really wealthy, I’m not planning to go back, I just haven’t touched a car in a while, only been practicing on the simulator, my hands are itching."
Zhou Guanyu ignored Qin Miao’s teasing, just nodded: "I understand, but do you want to see your F2 running in Shanghai?
There’s no team in China that can ensure the operation of an F2 car, even if the car is given to you, it probably won’t make it on the track, even if it does make it, it might stall halfway."
Upon hearing this, Qin Miao froze, then slapped his thigh: "Dang it, how did I forget about this."
Although the F2 car isn’t as delicate as the F1 car, even requiring high-temperature fuel to heat the internal components before starting, as a second-highest tier Formula car, it also needs professionals and equipment for pre-race maintenance.
The local teams in Shanghai can at most maintain F3 cars.
Sighing helplessly, Qin Miao said: "Then there’s no choice, I’ll go back to the UK early to run tests."
Zhou Guanyu said: "If you want to practice in Shanghai, then you’ll have to run simulations, but if you just want to scratch that itch, it’s actually not that hard."
"Got a proposal?"
"Shanghai has private teams that can rent out F4 cars, you can race F4 then."
Qin Miao:...
"You’ve got to be kidding me, letting a world champion race F4."
Zhou Guanyu spread his hands: "It’s just to scratch the itch anyway, besides, F4 is more suitable than F2, cheaper, not as fast, the G-force is enough, and you don’t need to re-adapt, you can basically get familiar with all operations after just a couple of laps."
