After Toto left, Qin Miao washed the dishes, tidied up the restaurant, and then lay down on the sofa.
Qing sat next to Qin Miao, moved Qin Miao’s head onto her lap, and curiously asked, "Is it really like you said? That you won’t change teams until Geely has the power to compete for the championship?"
Qin Miao snuggled his head closer to Qing’s stomach, inhaling the familiar scent of his lover, and murmured, "Actually, I don’t have such high demands for Geely. As long as the car can consistently get into the points and doesn’t make so rookie mistakes in the race, and if my contract happens to be expiring at that ti, I’ll consider switching teams."
"So, if Geely enters the competition next season and they can consistently get into the points, and if your contract expires at the end of next season, you won’t renew with rcedes?"
"Not necessarily, didn’t I say I’ll consider it? There’s a good chance it will depend on whether rcedes can improve the car’s performance this year in a significant way; if they continue to decline, I really might think about switching teams." Qin Miao adjusted his position a bit.
Although Qing’s thighs were sweetly soft, the place where Qin Miao rested his head was the highest part of Qing’s thigh, which made it a little too high to be comfortable.
After adjusting to the most comfortable position, Qin Miao said, "Rather than staying with a decaying team and rotting slowly, I’d prefer to join a new team and grow with them."
"Hey, what do you think? Would it be considered ungrateful if I left rcedes?" Qin Miao tried to look up at Qing’s face, but all he could see were two towering peaks and the shadows below them, nothing else.
After a pause, Qing’s voice reached him from the other side of the peaks: "Actually, I think it’s too early to talk about this; after all, there’s still half of the season left, and no one can predict what might happen.
But if you really decide to leave rcedes, I’ll fully support your decision!"
"Hmm~"
...
In the end, Qin Miao made a call to President Li during the two-day break.
They naturally talked about the hot topic in the paddock about Geely preparing to enter.
President Li’s attitude was very clear: this is the group’s strategy, and unless sothing significant changes, Geely’s strategy will not change.
Essentially, it ans Geely is very determined to enter F1 and will not change this lightly.
Of course, he also indirectly asked if Qin Miao had considered switching teams once his contract expires.
Qin Miao subtly hinted at his intentions without explicitly stating them, but the ssage was clear.
After this conversation, Qin Miao felt a sense of relief.
However, the impact of this news wasn’t weakened at all, as many viewers who watched Qin Miao’s ga streams kept asking him about this issue recently.
After all, those who love a good story hope to see a Chinese team alongside a Chinese driver in F1.
Faced with these questions, Qin Miao felt a bit overwheld and tried his best to ignore them.
Then soone went a step further by sending bullet comnts that make a sound to ask those questions to the strear.
After brushing off a few questions, Qin Miao finally had enough and abruptly ended his stream.
After spending two sowhat uncomfortable days at ho, Qin Miao resud his regular work schedule on Wednesday.
However, on his first afternoon back at work on Wednesday, just as Qin Miao arrived at the team factory and hadn’t even put his things back in his office, his phone’s work group notified him about a eting.
Though taken by surprise about the timing of the eting, Qin Miao still put his things away in the office and headed to the team eting room.
Initially, Qin Miao thought this eting wouldn’t be very large in scale.
In reality, the eting wasn’t very big, with only about a dozen people, but those dozen people were mostly rcedes team high-ups.
Besides Qin Miao, both Hamilton and the other test driver, De Vries, were present.
Qin Miao scratched his head in confusion, recalling that he hadn’t seen Hamilton’s car when coming to work.
Despite his confusion, Qin Miao found a seat for himself.
After all, he had been called to this eting today, and sitting in an inconspicuous corner wouldn’t affect anything.
Soon, others arrived one after another, mostly departnt heads or chief engineers who had a say within the team.
After thinking for a mont, Qin Miao had a premonition that the content of this eting might be significant.
Once everyone had arrived, the eting began.
This ti, the eting wasn’t led by Toto but by Elliott.
As the eting started, Elliott first discussed with the rcedes high-ups the challenges the team faced on the track this season.
After drawing the empathy of many and capturing everyone’s attention, he said, "Although the current W14 upgrade plan looks quite promising, it’s important to note that the W14’s design and data are based on the current performance and condition of the car, and I don’t think our current understanding of the car will allow us to build a W14 that ets our expectations, there are various risks, and I’m sure everyone is aware of them.
