A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village

   Hearing Minami Shuuichi's words, Mitsui Guishou laughed, and he wanted to laugh unrestrainedly. His current father is the new helm of the Mitsui Consortium. What extravagant things has he not done all these years?

   "You said, whatever you dare to play, I will play with you! I'm afraid you won't be able to play by then." Mitsui Guishou sneered.

   "No, just play a team, do you dare?" Nanye Xiuyi.

   "Team? What's not to dare? I have five or six sports cars, and I can build a team by myself. On the other hand, you might have to buy a few more sports cars first." Mitsui Guishou said with a grin.

   "Haha..." Mitsubishi Kotaro next to him also laughed.

   "What's the point of playing with such an amateur team! If you want to play, you can play with the F1 team, do you dare?" Minami said with disdain.

   "Nani, F1 team?" At this time, it was Mitsui Guishou's turn to be stunned.

   The F1 team corresponds to the F1 car, the full name of the F1 car: the World Formula One Championship. It is the most expensive, fastest and most technologically advanced sport in the world. Because of its wide range of influence and high popularity, it is also known as the "three major sports in the world" with the World Cup and the Olympic Games.

   And the F1 race appeared in 1950. Although it is only the ninth year, its popularity has swept the world.

   This is definitely a fast and furious event!

  In later generations, it takes hundreds of millions of dollars to raise an F1 team every year. Of course, there is no need for that much money at present, and it is estimated that it is about 10 to 20 million US dollars.

  Everything in the F1 team is attended by those car giants.

  Almost all of the sports car brands are the teams formed by the automobile giants.

   Even the Toyota Motor Corporation of that year did not form a team to participate in it until a long time later. This thing is completely a money-burning industry.

  The Toyota Team (ToyotaF1) was a Formula One team using ri-produced car manufacturer Toyota. The team was headquartered in Cologne, Germany. The Toyota team has been planning to participate in F1 since 1999.

   In other words, companies like Toyota only joined F1 in 1999.

   There are many reasons for this. First of all, Toyota did not have a sports car brand in the past, and it was useless to enter it, but now Minano Shuichi is different. He develops high-end Lexus cars, and also develops Lexus sports cars!

  In this case, forming a team to enter the F1 event is the best promotion for Lexus sports cars. At the same time, it can also learn automotive technology from major brands of sports cars to improve their sports cars, and at the same time, they can continue to improve in the competition.

   This is the ultimate goal of Minamino Shuichi.

   This year, he received a dividend of 100 million Alaska oilfields. In addition to buying land and other expenses, he now has 90 million US dollars left! He thought he could play this extravagant racing event ahead of time!

   "F1 team? You're not bragging, are you? Do you know that it takes millions of dollars to build the worst F1 team? Besides, let's get the F1 team first." Mitsubishi Kotaro disdainfully said.

   This thing is not something you can build a team with money, you also need to buy a team quota!

"I don't need you to worry about whether I can afford it, I will ask you if you dare to bet? My team will appear in F1 events next year, I wonder if you dare to get a team to appear in F1 events next year. Dare? How about betting $10 million?" Nanye Xiuyi said with a smile.

   Minami Shuuichi's words made Mitsui Onishi and Mitsubishi Kotaro shut up instantly!

   Although they are the children of the consortium family, their pocket money is limited. Hundreds of thousands of dollars a year are already very dear to you. Can they afford F1 teams? think too much!

   "Don't you dare to gamble? You are your grandson if you don't dare to gamble." Minami Xiu smiled happily.

   Minami Shuuichi's words made these two blushing.

   "You, you are the grandson! Yes, what's not to dare." Mitsui Guishou bit the bullet and said.

   "Oh, do you dare to say that? Do you dare to write down the betting contract and sign it?" Minami Shuichi stood up and looked directly at Mitsui Guishou. The latter did not dare to look at Shuichi Nanno.

   "Hmph, you're just threatening us, you can't afford to play!" Mitsubishi Kotaro said stubbornly.

   "Then sign and sign!"

   In the end, these two people still confessed and found an excuse to run away.

   After seeing the two of them running away, he ordered Ferrari and left here. He also instantly became a member of the club.

   The next day he was ready to send someone to set up an F1 team.

   Among all the races held in F1 (1950-2010), the most held is Europe, followed by North America, and the least is Oceania only 11 times. There are 16 to 17 races planned each year (20 races in the 2012 season), which usually start around mid-March and end at the end of October. According to the F1 regulations, the necessary conditions for the establishment of a team need to have an independently developed chassis, and the engine assembly, aerodynamic kit, etc. can use products from other teams or manufacturers. For example: Sauber's engine is provided by Ferrari, and the Ferrari team also uses the same engine.

   Anyway, the F1 race is the best in the world. Not to mention the formation of a team, it is not so easy to be a racing driver. If you want to become a racing driver, you first need a driver's license!

   Just like regular road driving, F1 also requires a driver's license. That is a "super driver's license" issued by the FIA ​​(FIA) - FIASuperLicence, this driver's license is only issued to drivers who have performed outstandingly in F3000, F3 or CART series events. It usually takes a driver 8 years to gradually advance from a small karting (karting) to F1, but in fact only a few people have the ability and opportunity to reach the top of the racing pyramid.

   That's why F1 racing is the top car race in the world!

   In later generations, often a country can be proud of having an F1 driver.

   Its gold content is definitely an honor.

   And now, Minami Shuuichi is planning to set up such a team. This is not only because he likes to spend money, but in fact, it is closely related to his Lexus luxury sports car plan of Minamino Motors. Otherwise, he wouldn't be brain-dead to play with this money-burning team.

In the    office, Minamino Shuichi holds a document, which records the information of all teams in the current F1 race.

   "F1 top team - Cooper team!"

   "F1 top team - Lotus Team!"

   "F1 top team - Ferrari team!"

   "F1 first-class team - BRM team!"

   "F1 first-class team - Maserati team!"

   "F1 first-class team - Porsche team!"

  “…”

   After looking at it, he plans to buy a low-ranking team. After all, it is estimated that no one will sell the top-ranking team. Even if it is sold, it is estimated that it is too expensive, so he will not do such a thing. He intends to make his team rise step by step.

   "Well, the Teves team has had zero points for the past few years and basically never won. It seems that I will buy you!" Minano Shuichi finally took a fancy to a team at the bottom.

   An F1 team not only needs to be good at supercars, but also a good team, and at the same time, a good R&D team, and the last one is a good driver.

   These all need to be managed slowly, and he will not feel that he can win the championship as soon as he forms this F1 team. Anyway, there is a lot of time, and it will not be too late to make Lexus famous in a few years.

   Now all he needs to do is develop slowly! Start with the acquisition of a team to participate in the competition.
