Future chat group

The conversation ended unhappily, and Lei Hao took his girlfriend carelessly to find their location according to the data on the tickets.

Coincidentally, the ticket in Lei Hao's hand was given by the McLaren team, so he happened to be together with Tao Qiyang and some people related to McLaren.

"It's not that enemies don't get together." Sensing Tao Qiyang's surprised and complicated eyes, Lei Hao muttered with a wry smile. When he wanted to walk over and say hello, a slightly familiar voice sounded in his ears.

"Waoh, Lei." Proficient in spoken English and blunt Chinese writing, those who can use this kind of tone are almost foreigners.

Looking towards the person who said hello, Lei Hao showed a bright but polite smile on his face. He took a step forward with his girlfriend, shook hands with the person who also came over, and then said: "David, do you like to watch racing?" ?”

"Lei, you have to know that HSBC is British and McLaren is British. So, you shouldn't be surprised to see me on McLaren's territory." David shrugged and said with a smile: " Are you a McLaren fan too?"

"No, I came to see He Bin." Lei Hao shook his head and laughed at himself: "I forgot to tell you, I don't even have a driver's license."

"Incredible." David opened his eyes wide, as if he had heard some big news, and his face was full of surprise.

Foreigners almost use driver's licenses as ID cards. People like Lei Hao who are in their twenties without a driver's license are almost more rare than giant pandas.

"Unfortunately, I originally wanted to recommend McLaren's supercar to you." David introduced the topic to McLaren, then smiled and stepped aside, introducing: "Ray, this is Lemon. McLaren team principal.”

"Lemon, this is Lei. The commander of the battle I told you yesterday was Lei."

David is an executive of HSBC in Hong Kong and is also British. HSBC has a high status in the UK and has some relationship with McLaren. He even has financial cooperation with the McLaren team leader, so he got the ticket. It's quite a simple thing.

This Lemon is about the same age as David. He wears black-rimmed glasses. His expression originally had some inexplicable arrogance inherent in England. But when he heard the last sentence, he restrained his arrogance and put on a polite smile. .

"Mr. Lei, nice to meet you." Lemon extended his hand. He believed that Lei Hao's achievements deserved respect.

"Nice to meet you." Lei Hao greeted the other party in his not-so-fluent English, and had no intention of treating him warmly.

On the contrary, it was David who was so enthusiastic about Lei Hao. He joked and said some British humor from time to time, and talked about the situation of this qualifying match. His good intentions were beyond words.

Not far away from Lei Hao, Tao Qiyang almost bit his tongue when he looked at this scene.

Lemon is actually very racist, and David from HSBC Hong Kong is not unknown to anyone. But these two people, when facing Lei Hao, one wanted to please, and the other abandoned their prejudices and gave With corresponding respect, this is enough.

"Isn't he just the CEO of a small company? And he is also from the financial circle like David. The latter is a senior executive of HSBC Hong Kong. How can he be so humble?" Tao Qiyang conducted a brief investigation on Lei Hao and found out The information is naturally very general.

He had no idea that the small company in Lei Hao's hands had just reaped a profit of 100 million US dollars under the nose of HSBC. His calmness and ease simply blinded the eyes of a group of people, including David.

The division of status in the financial circle is very simple and crude. Either you have money or you have ability. Lei Hao's current net worth can be considered rich and capable...just look at David's attitude.

As for Lemon, his status is not low, he is also well-educated, and he can be regarded as a qualified team leader if he can bear to treat corresponding people accordingly.

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere of the conversation, Tao Qiyang came over, and the managers of other drivers also came over. They talked about the team, the game, and occasionally had some small disputes.

When the qualifying round was about to begin, Lei Hao felt that both Lemon and Tao Qiyang were focusing on him.

After a long time, McLaren team leader Lemmon, who had turned his head to talk to others, came over again and praised Lei Hao: "Mr. Lei, I didn't expect that you can analyze the changes in the securities market and you are also very discerning about people. "

"Excuse me." Lei Hao intentionally skipped this topic, but the other party didn't seem to be very willing.

"I heard about He, and... I personally believe that the spirit of the contract cannot be violated." Lemon gave a thumbs up and said, "It looks like Tao is going to give you a liquidated damages."

"Mr. Lemon." Tao Qiyang said angrily from the side: "In China, the spirit of contract is very important, but some things are more important than this."

"Oh, I'll wait and see." Lemon didn't know that Tao Qiyang had already been in contact with Lei Hao. He just knew that Lei Hao had bought the right to use the image, which caused some setbacks in the negotiation between the team and He Bin, that's all.

Losing money and other things are normal things in the eyes of foreigners. If you want to break the contract, then you have to lose money and have a relationship...it will hurt your wallet.

However, Tao Qiyang had his own little calculation. He wanted to squeeze Lei Hao here, so he said: "The money A Bin has earned over the years is not enough to pay all the liquidated damages. If he doesn't sign with McLaren, I think... There are some drawbacks to his development.”

"No, our team only cares about technology." Lemon interrupted, and then waited with interest for the possible confrontation between Tao Qiyang and Lei Hao.

Lei Hao also saw the trap set by Tao Qiyang and felt the curious eyes around him. He knew very well that if he refused now, then according to the nature of the agency, it would be strange not to create some hype.

Lei Hao didn't care about gossip or anything like that, but it was weird to feel happy after being disgusted for no reason.

"Mr. Lei, A Bin's situation is really difficult," Tao Qiyang opened his mouth and said with bitterness in his tone: "For the sake of our compatriots..."

Xiaozhi is based on emotion, and action is based on reason. If he said these words in private, Lei Hao would be fine with it, but when he said these things now, it seemed like an internal fight in front of outsiders.

Why, for the sake of my compatriots, should I give up millions for nothing? In order for China to produce an F1 driver who often competes in the competition, we have to give up profits to foreigners?

Lei Hao doesn't approve of this approach, but if there is no reminder of future information, he may endure this and help He Bin.

It's just that it's not the time to unveil it yet. If He Bin is coated with a layer of gold foil as a champion, then it will be the team's side that should give in.

"Why didn't McLaren give in? Take a loss in exchange for an opportunity? I don't think this is the best choice." Lei Hao sighed and said.
