At three o'clock in the afternoon, the planned opening ceremony was held. In front of the simple rostrum, there were almost 500 journalists and news practitioners.

Not only are there some influence in China, but even top international media like BB have sent reporters to interview.

Of course, this is also due to the glory of the East China Sea Grand Prix, because many international journalists came to China to report the final battle of the East China Sea Grand Prix. After all, this is the most eye-catching event in F1 this year.

When he heard that the racing club invested and built by Zhang Yifei was about to open and planned to hold a press conference, he rushed over. Anyway, everyone was already in China, and it was idle, so it would be nice to just come over and join in the fun.

Except for the on-site reporters who informed the fans, fans and car fans were completely spontaneous. Because before here, not to mention previewing in advance, even Zhang Yifei knew about this Guangzhou-Shenzhen Formula Club.

They gathered here with pure worship and admiration after receiving the news. When the official opening was officially opened at 3:00 pm, almost tens of thousands of people came. Fortunately, Zhang Yifei made a decision in advance and set the rostrum directly on the track, otherwise the space in the lobby of the Racing Museum would be far from enough.

The opening ceremony was different from what many people imagined before. It was not that Zhang Yifei hosted the program, but that Lu Ningping was fully in charge.

The reason is very simple. Although Zhang Yifei paid the money behind the scenes, the real effort of this track is Uncle Lu. Moreover, for a long time in the future, Lu Ningping will maintain the operation of the track and will assume the responsibility of coaching. He is the person who is truly qualified to unveil this club.

Lu Ningping stood in front of the microphone and told the history of the construction of this track and the concept of the future. When he was in deep thought, he could see the tears in the eyes of this Chinese car king.

Indeed, this racing club has supported the dreams and hopes of two generations of Chinese racing people. Today, it can finally be realized in my own hands. How could Lu Ningping not be excited?

After the speech at the opening ceremony, Lu Ningping set his sights on Zhang Yifei and said, "I know what you are looking forward to, so next let Mr. Zhang Yifei, the founder of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Formula Club, the Chinese Car God, speak!"

This time, Lu Ningping, the former "Chinese Car King" introduced Zhang Yifei in very formal language and also used the title of "Chinese Car God".

Obviously, this is the inheritance between the two generations of Chinese drivers, and it is also Lu Ningping who told everyone that the rise of the new generation of Chinese car gods will be a little later.

Zhang Yifei bowed to Lu Ningping. This was his respect for the veteran and his gratitude to Uncle Lu. Then, under the shining of countless spotlights, he stood in front of the rostrum microphone.

Before he could speak, crazy applause and cheers sounded from the audience, which were resounding throughout the sky. And everyone stood up and applauded, with their eyes full of fanatical admiration. Even though the height of the stands was higher than the rostrum of the press conference, they looked at Zhang Yifei with a look up mentality.

This is China's strongest driver, the real Chinese car god!

"Is this Zhang Yifei, the man who defeated the world's strongest Schumacher?"

"Nonsense, otherwise who would have such momentum and domineeringness?"

"This racing suit is so handsome, and he deserves to be a world-class F1 driver."

"I will never forget it. The back of Zhang Yifei standing next to the racing car under the afterglow of the sunset is truly handsome!"

"I look forward to seeing the driver fly to the top in the East China Sea, and I look forward to him becoming a real car god!"

Various obsessive discussions sounded from the audience. This time, there was no roaring engine sound like the F1 racing car, and Zhang Yifei could hear many words clearly.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, but this was not because of his praise, but because Zhang Yifei felt his influence and change in the country.

To be unmodest, this is the power of role models. Apart from a Chinese player, Yao Ming, NBA can be said to have brought about the golden age of Chinese basketball, and its influence has increased several times.

Now that racing has stood up, I dare not say everything. At least most Chinese people have heard of what f1 is, and have begun to understand racing and drivers. And compared to basketball, racing can also stimulate the development of the automobile industry, which is a heavy industry!

If a miracle of Akira Nishida could happen to Huali, the future scene would be too beautiful to imagine.

After nodding, the screams and cheers in the stands gradually became smaller. At this time, Zhang Yifei began to say to the microphone: "I am very grateful for the many media media, as well as all car fans and fans coming to support it today."

"To be honest, this is something I didn't expect in advance, thank you very much."

After Zhang Yifei finished speaking, warm applause came from the audience again in response.

"The main purpose of today's press conference is to announce the establishment of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Formula Club. This club is China's first professional Formula Club. It will be open to all drivers in the future and provide subsidies to talented students."

"I can assure you that the public will provide the most professional formula training, the most advanced formula racing, and will also host the most powerful and professional car events in China."

"In a word, this club will make your dreams within reach!"

When Zhang Yifei said this, the stands can be described as boiling. The simple star-chasing fans here are actually only a few, and more are Formula fans, and even some domestic drivers.

Although what Zhang Yifei said was very similar to the exaggerated TV advertising, few people doubted the moisture in it. The reason is very simple, that is, the person who said this sentence was Zhang Yifei!

They had a vague premonition in their hearts that Zhang Yifei's statement today, together with the upcoming F1 Grand Prix in Donghai, the future of Chinese professional racing may enter a new era from today.

Almost as Zhang Yifei finished speaking, a foreign journalist who had been waiting in the audience couldn't help but pick up the microphone and started asking questions.

"Fei, I'm a reporter from bbc. We're all curious about when you started preparing for this racing club. You know, for many people, it's like it suddenly pops up."

BBC reporters were very confused because the news that Zhang Yifei invested in the construction of the Formula Club was like a secret, and there was no news at all before. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would have doubted whether it was true.

So now these journalists want to know what is going on behind this and why Zhang Yifei wants to build a racing club.

"It was officially planned last year, but I have always had this idea since I entered the Formula profession. I believe many people know that I had received a lot of cold eyes and ridicule. One of them is that Chinese drivers who have no racing foundation can do Formula racing?"

"It is indeed as ridiculed, many Chinese drivers have never been exposed to Formula racing. They may not even know what the F1 racing looks like except on TV."

"I want to change all this, so with this club, this ridicule will never sound again."

Another thunderous applause sounded. Many car fans and fans here knew that Zhang Yifei had been ridiculed and abused abroad. How sad was Zhang Yifei's experience at the beginning, then today I can be more excited about his achievements.

Zhang Yifei made his promise, that is, to fight for the honor of Chinese drivers to the end, and he would never kneel down and beg for mercy!

"Hello Yifei, I am a reporter from Guangming Daily. This time the Formula Club was established. In addition to joining hands with the Prost team, you have also reached a strategic cooperation with the Huali Group."

"There have been rumors outside that Huali Group and Prost have had in-depth cooperation and even participated in racing research and development. Is this true?"

Huali Group has invested in Prost team and sent technicians to participate in racing research and development, but it has not been made public. The main reason is that foreign countries have a deep defense against China in this era, and some capital fundraising behind Huali Group is not so open and honest, and even the state capital is involved.

Therefore, when cooperating, all parties adopted a low-key approach, including Zhang Yifei, a de facto shareholder, which has never been publicly exposed from beginning to end.

However, now the Huali European R&D Center has been officially established and can use this name to carry out R&D cooperation with the Prost fleet, instead of secretly dispatching technicians to the fleet R&D center before.

Moreover, the civil car market in this era has begun to enter a period of rapid development. The market is there. If domestic cars are not seized, they will inevitably be occupied by Japanese, German, American and other vehicles.

Even if it is a joint venture, without its own technology as capital, and simply exchanged for the market, you will not be able to obtain any real automobile industry technology. Later generations have proved this.

So there is no need to hide it anymore. We need to build momentum for Huali Automobile Group and use the F1 standard to improve the level of domestic cars. Although there is no chance for the Japanese to kill the Germans, at least it is impossible for the Koreans to rise in China in the future.

The paths that Chinese companies have taken generally leave companies in other countries with no way out.

"Yes, the European R&D Center of Huali Group has participated in the development process of Prost Racing. Moreover, Huali Group will delegate the experience of the advanced European automobile industry to provide technical support for domestic vehicle manufacturing, and even form professional teams."

"This is also one of the directions of cooperation between the club and Huali Group. We will form the first Formula Chinese team here, starting from Formula Elementary and finally entering Formula Elementary!"

Zhang Yifei told his future plans and also helped Huali Group advertise.

When Lavali Group acquired shares, the world's pie was not for nothing. It was one of the conditions for forming a professional team. After all, the professional team without a car company as a background and relying on has never been solid.

Even if Williams, one of the three big F1 giants, acquired the Sauber team a few years later and no longer provided the race engine, it instantly caused a fatal blow to Williams and was unable to recover for more than ten years.

The three famous giants in the 1990s once beat Ferrari's peak giant and became the bottom-ranked team.

And then again, forming a professional team is not a condition, it is a completely win-win situation, which can help Huali Group improve its momentum and brand influence faster.

The real condition at that time was actually another, that is, Zhang Yifei asked Huali Group to no longer "counterfeit" famous foreign models, and to ensure its positive research and development. No matter how difficult it is to start, it must continue!

The criticism of domestic cars in later generations is not only for some of their inherent impressions and superior parties, but also for the early development of domestic cars, which is too damn bad.

"Copycats" are indeed one of the processes that a latecomer country has to go through. There is no problem with imitating them. It is just that sometimes, the food appearance cannot be too ugly. The production of some industrial waste will only affect your reputation and brand image.

Moreover, this image may have to pay ten times or a hundred times the price in the future to be whitewashed.

Zhang Yifei will do his best to help the development of the domestic automobile industry, but he will definitely not use this way to cheat his own people. The road has been paved, and how to follow up is Huali Group's own business, but he cannot go astray.

Brand value may be more difficult for an automobile company to obtain than technology.

Immediately afterwards, the reporters asked other questions about the club, and Zhang Yifei gave answers one by one. Of course, there were many reporters asking about the East China Sea Grand Prix, but Zhang Yifei smiled and said that he would stay for the East China Sea Grand Prix before answering.

At 4:30 pm, the club unveiling ceremony and press conference were officially concluded.

According to the itinerary, Zhang Yifei will immediately arrive at the East China Sea Circuit after the opening ceremony. Because this time, the interval between the Japanese Grand Prix and the East China Sea Grand Prix is ​​only seven days, except for the day delayed in the Japanese transition, and today, there are only five days left.

Among these five days, there are also two days of practice competition and one day of main competition. To be precise, there are only two days left. Although Zhang Yifei is very familiar with the East China Sea track, many things also need to be completed, so it is best not to delay too much.

However, Lu Ningping wanted to take Zhang Yifei to meet someone. To be precise, he was the first "student" and driver in the club. He hoped to recommend it to Zhang Yifei.

Zhang Yifei never doubted Lu Ningping's vision, and he was also curious in his heart who could make Uncle Lu pay so much attention.

So he asked the members of the car to get on the car first, and he and Uncle Lu went to the club office building alone. When he passed the racing museum, he happened to see a five or six-year-old child lying in front of the glass curtain wall, looking at the Prost AAP05 racing car inside, and there was a man standing next to him.

"Dad, is this the racing car that the car godfei drove?"

"No, Zhang Yifei drove another one, but it was also of the same model."

"Dad, this car is so beautiful. I want to become a driver who drives this kind of car in the future."

"Then you have to work hard to become a driver like Zhang Yifei and drive the F1 racing car."

"Dad, I will definitely work hard and drive the F1 racing car like Che Shenfei!"

The tender childish voice reveals a kind of yearning and firmness.

Listening to the conversation between the father and son, Lu Ningping looked at Zhang Yifei. He suddenly understood why Zhang Yifei insisted on establishing this racing museum.
Chapter completed!
