After several hours of flight, the fleet chartered a flight landed at the International Airport in Kuala Lumpur.

Compared with other countries in Southeast Asia, Zhang Yifei is quite familiar with Malaysia because there are nearly 30% of the Chinese ethnic group here, and compared with some "banana people" in other places, the Chinese in Malay have a strong sense of cultural identity.

As soon as the team members got off the plane, they were divided into two teams, including a loading and unloading team of thirty people, and will participate in the unloading of cargo aircraft, the auxiliary equipment will pass customs inspections, and transport them to the Sepang Track for final assembly.

This construction time is usually completed within 2 to 3 days. From the tool rack of the P room, to the operation of the entire fleet electronic system, assembling the F1 racing car, and the final kitchen rest area construction, everything will be done in these two or three days.

The loading and unloading team got off the plane and headed to the freight department, and Zhang Yifei and the fleet management naturally took the normal pick-up channel.

The f1 Grand Prix is ​​currently the most important international event in Malaysia, and it can be said that there is even no other one. Their importance can be imagined.

So at Kuala Lumpur International Airport, a special pick-up channel was opened to accommodate fans who came to pick up the plane today and media reporters from Southeast Asian countries to shoot.

Zhang Yifei came out of the entrance of the passage and immediately saw a crowd of black people, and the flash light that could not be opened by the eyes of the people, which seemed very grand and big.

After all, in terms of economic strength, Malaysia now must surpass China of its contemporary era.

However, with the rise of China, they fell into the middle-income trap for the next twenty years. Without huge industry as support, economic development was at a stagnant level.

Therefore, later generations of Chinese people looked at the entire Southeast Asia, except for Singapore, and did not feel that they had any developed areas, but in this era, Malaysia was still a good country in economic terms.

It is precisely because of their wealth that they hosted the F1 event earlier than China, and the first official F1 driver Xiong Long appeared.

This time point was just the beginning of the hosting of the Malaysian Grand Prix, and this year, domestic drivers entered F1, so the whole of Malaysia was in a stage of high enthusiasm for F1 sports.

If you want to make an analogy, it is very similar to China's Olympic Games in 2008, which is the popularity of the National Olympic Games.

Therefore, today's pick-up channel has such an exaggerated number of people. Most of them are going to welcome their own F1 driver Xiong Long.

However, Zhang Yifei is now a well-known newcomer in the F1 paddock. The identity of China's first professional F1 driver and the good record of getting points in its debut have helped Zhang Yifei's reputation promote it. Many Malaysians also know his name.

“Welcome to Malaysia!”

"Zhang Yifei, come on the Sepang Raceway!"

"Fei, I'm your fan, sign me!"

“Ah~”

All kinds of noisy sounds sounded, and the pick-up channel was an indoor space, and it was affected by echoes. Zhang Yifei could barely say something clearly, but behind him were all kinds of screaming sounds.

However, many of these welcome voices were posted in Chinese, which made Zhang Yifei feel very friendly.

However, Zhang Yifei still heard some disharmonious voices. A considerable number of Malaysians do not have the natural closeness of the Chinese to Zhang Yifei's tribe. In addition, some of the conflicts between Zhang Yifei and Xiong Longdong Test were widely spread in Malaysia. From the standpoint of supporting their own drivers, they naturally hostile to Zhang Yifei.

During the winter test, there were also resident reporters to report on the test of new cars of each F1 team and some new things that happened at the Catalonian track.

Some of the conflicts between Zhang Yifei and Xiong Long were naturally reported by the reporters on site. However, at that time, one was a new rookie, and the other was a third driver who was not even a formal driver. Both of them were at the level of a cat and a dog in F1. No one cared about this small showdown even after reporting it.

But these news are different in Malaysia. Xiong Long entered the F1 team this year, but he has a very high attention, and it is not too much to say that it is Malaysia's pride.

Zhang Yifei was in charge of being both Chinese at the time, but in fact he did not make any extreme remarks to Xiong Long. On the contrary, he was very restrained in the face of Xiong Long's provocation.

But it can't hold back the mouths of some media. After several rounds of reports spread layer by layer, Zhang Yifei looked down on Xiong Long, and even the news of bullying Xiong Long on the track came out.

Most Chinese people still don’t believe these gossips, so while supporting their own drivers, they will also welcome Zhang Yifei’s arrival.

However, for Malays, they even have racial conflicts with their own Chinese. How could they trust Zhang Yifei? Naturally, they trust some of the media's rumors more, which has become the source of these discordant voices.

Hearing these voices, Zhang Yifei smiled on his face, without any emotional fluctuations.

For him, these things can be described as a battle-produced person. Compared with the boo and ridicule in Australia, the Malays are obviously not in a good mood today, so they are so weak!

After leaving the airport, the group sat on the bus provided by the track. The leader Hen used a joke tone and said, "Fei, I understand why you become a public enemy in the Renault Formula. There are really many opponents."

Henry was the manager of the Ligier team before and has more than ten years of service experience in the F1 team. To be honest, he has seen many newcomers. Apart from Kimi Raikkonen last year, there is no newcomer who can cause so much controversy like Zhang Yifei.

But Kimi Raikkonen has created the history of F1. The first junior driver to enter F1 with a "three-level jump" has caused a lot of discussion. It is normal to have support and oppose it.

Although Zhang Yifei also copied the miracle, there is still an essential difference between the pioneer and the replicator. In addition, he comes from China without any racing foundation. In theory, he should be like most unknown newcomers, and there are no waves in the f1 paddock.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yifei's attention in Australia, regardless of whether he supports or opposes, even surpasses Kimi Raikkonen.

The Australian Grand Prix has passed, and now we are in Malaysia. All the focus of getting off the plane has been put on Zhang Yifei again. This Chinese newcomer really has the potential to attract national popularity!

"There is no way, I want to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn't allow it!"

Zhang Yifei replied helplessly, he really wanted to keep a low profile and had no intention of causing trouble.

Unexpectedly, the little thing Xiong Long provoked had affected Malaysia, which was really something that could not be avoided!

However, his words caused laughter in the bus, and the reason why Henry could use jokes to tell these negative factors.

It was because they had contacted that they had already felt Zhang Yifei's terrifying psychological quality. These off-field factors could not affect his playing state at all.

Now, judging from Zhang Yifei's answer, it is true that the Chinese newcomer did not take these opposition seriously, and he is still in the mood to joke.

After almost an hour's drive, the team members arrived at the hotel next to the Sepang Raceway.

Because of the full support of the Malaysian government, the team felt that the various service preparations and race attitudes were stronger than the previous Australian Grand Prix, and there were even special volunteers to provide help to the team around the clock.

It takes two to three days to build a P-room and assemble a racing car, so this period is basically in the free activity stage, which is considered to give drivers some time to relax before the race.

However, Zhang Yifei did not intend to waste this time. After he arrived at the hotel, he asked the team to move the racing simulator first.

The racing simulator of this era is simple and has the advantage of being simple, that is, it is more convenient for transportation and transportation. Zhang Yifei can make full use of the free time of the sub-station event to conduct simulation training on the Sepang track.

Although the results of the Australian Grand Prix are very good for a F1 newcomer to get points for his debut. But for Zhang Yifei, the gap in the total time between more than one minute and Schumacher really made him understand what it means to be someone outside of others and there is a sky beyond the sky.

If I were slower, I would probably be snagged by Schumacher for his debut.

The feeling of placing the ring is not good, especially the feeling of humiliation that the blue flag appears on the track.

Many famous conflicts on the F1 track are actually caused by the ferrule not allowing the line. Take the ferrule between Red Bull driver Verstappen and Indian Power driver Okang in 2018.

This conflict is considered a rare hand-on conflict in F1 in the past decade. The main reason for this was that Verstappen had trapped Okon, but the latter was unwilling to accept it and completed the overtake with a tough move.

In the end, the two collided during the line grabbing process, and Verstappen was hit by a car track, and at the same time, they also lost the sub-station champion who was about to be won.

Just like Schumacher rushed into the repair station of Cooterhard and was about to find the other party to fuck him. The "turret" Verstappen was furious. After getting off the car, he rushed to Okon and pushed him directly to prepare for fuck him.

However, Okon did not fight back. Verstappen pushed and held back in front of the staff's dissuasion with the camera, otherwise the first boxing fight in F1 in recent years would break out.

Zhang Yifei did not want to bear the humiliation of being snagged, so he could only be well prepared to improve his strength. However, at this time, Diniz Company came to the hotel and prepared to complete the sponsorship signing with Zhang Yifei before the Malaysia Grand Prix.

Zhang Yifei did not intend to distract himself from dealing with these commercial cooperation, but gave full power to Junko Takeda.

Now that the team is in charge of more professional personnel, Junko Takeda has no place to use his skills. So Zhang Yifei thought of a position that is very suitable for Junko Takeda, that is, the position of driver agent.

In order not to affect their training, all F1 drivers will understand the business sponsorship endorsement and will be handed over to the agent for handling.

Zhang Yifei had previously discussed business cooperation with Huaxia Petrochemical and Guo Group himself. But now this situation will change, unless it is a key decision point, all the details will be handled by Junko Takeda.

Junko Takeda was also very happy about the change in her driver's agent's identity because she was from public relations and was a little idle during this period. She had a formal position and "office" direction, which undoubtedly allowed her to withdraw her value better.

The most important sponsorship fee has been negotiated in advance, and the details behind it are actually not important. However, Diniz Company put forward a request, that is, after the Malaysian Grand Prix, Zhang Yifei will return to China to cooperate with the Puma Group's publicity.
Chapter completed!
