Chapter 809 Car, a man’s toy

In the 4S repair shop, Pani looked at the scratches on the car and said apologetically to Zhang Pingan: "Hey... I don't even know what to say." On the contrary, Zhang Pingan said indifferently: "What, you What are you apologizing for? Isn’t it just a scratch? It’s okay. I’d rather stop here and get scratched, right?”

Taeyeon touched the car door that was slightly dented due to scratches and said: "That small road is too narrow. Normally, ordinary vehicles can pass through, but when encountering a slightly larger car like yours, the owner's driving skills are not good enough." There will be scratches.”

There are many back streets and alleys in Korea, and many stores, whether they are food stores or clothing stores, are located in such alleys. Such alleys are not dedicated two-way lanes, but slightly wider than one-way lanes. On weekdays, if I miss a car or something, I will borrow the platform outside the store. When parking, half of the car is on the platform outside the store, and half of the car occupies the driveway.

Compared with ordinary cars, Zhang Ping'an's Rolls-Royce has a wider body width. An average car is 1.8 meters wide, but the Rolls-Royce is 2 meters wide without unfolding the rearview mirrors, which is almost 20 centimeters wider. And it happened that the store they were visiting was located at a T-intersection. Zhang Pingan was certain that the scratch occurred due to the turn of the narrow road...

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said, "It's okay. We have insurance anyway, so it won't be a burden to others."

Pani hesitated and said: "The other party should also have insurance. Just ask the insurance company to solve the problem. Running away... This is a bit irritating."

Zhang Ping'an understood the thoughts of the fleeing man. He smiled and said, "Maybe he was scared. After all, it is a Rolls-Royce, and with such a big scratch... he must be scared."

Taeyeon nodded in agreement: "She must have been frightened to be scratched by such a high-end car. The first thing she thought of was to run away because she couldn't afford the compensation."

The people from the insurance company came. After Zhang Pingan went to communicate with the insurance company, it was quickly settled... The three of them came out of the store and stood on the side of the road.

Zhang Ping'an looked at the two of them with the things he bought and said, "Are you going home now? Or continue shopping? If you continue shopping, you just wait here. I'll drive here in half an hour at most?"

Pani stopped and said, "Why are you still shopping? I'm in no mood."

Taeyeon gave a different suggestion and said: "Let's find a place to eat first and then talk about it after eating. How about it? Pani, don't take it too seriously. I don't blame you for this."

Because this store is what Pani wants to go to.

So after what happened, Pani felt a little guilty. If she hadn't found this remote shop, Zhang Pingan's vehicle would not have been damaged.

After Taeyeon comforted her, Zhang Ping'an nodded and agreed: "Yeah, it's not your problem. It's time to buy a new car. I've been driving this car for two years. I'll give it to Sika in two days. She will take it. Go and put on a good show for the company.”

Taeyeon looked at Zhang Pingan and said, "Didn't you just buy a Bentley? What else do you want to buy?"

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said, "Look, let's wait until the new car is launched after the auto show in March. By the way, Taeyeon, aren't you going to change your car? Let's get together then?"

"talk later."

.......

The three of them came to a Western restaurant here in Cheongdamdong and had a meal. Do they want to go out for a walk? Or go home, the location here is very close. After ordering the food, Pani held a glass of champagne, and Zhang Ping'an held a glass of beer. The two briefly touched each other, but Taeyeon, the "drinker", did not drink, but asked for a glass of lemonade.

Pani said to Zhang Pingan again: "I'm so sorry. If it weren't for me, this wouldn't have happened."

Zhang Ping'an said depressedly: "Yeah, if you keep talking, I'm really annoying you. I've already told you, this is a trivial matter."

Pani curled his lips and said, "I'm not happy either. I was obviously happy to go shopping, but my car was scratched. Anyone who thinks about it will be angry. The most important thing is that the perpetrator ran away."

Pani was really depressed when something like this happened. Zhang Ping'an once again comforted and said: "Don't apologize. Really, you said we were happy. Then why did you say something that made you unhappy? Actually, I really don't care. I'm not Did you say that I would take advantage of this incident to buy two new cars for fun? "

Taeyeon asked: "What car do you want to buy?"

Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "BMW M5, Audi RS7, Mercedes-Benz E63S."

"Oh~~!" Taeyeon usually reads some car magazines, so when she heard Zhang Ping'an mentioned three highly playable vehicles, she nodded: "These three cars. , quite interesting!”

When Pani heard Zhang Pingan's words, he said doubtfully: "Buy three at a time? Are you buying toy cars?"

Zhang Ping'an glanced at Pani: "Cars are just toys for men. If conditions permit, it's not bad to buy them for fun. I plan to buy these three cars to go to the track and play."

Pani said doubtfully: "Go to the track? Then why don't you buy a Ferrari or a Lamborghini?"

Zhang Pingan shook his head and said: "Ferrari performs well on the track, followed by Porsche, but Lamborghini is not good. However, the three cars I mentioned also take into account daily use. They are not pure sports cars, but they are not inferior to sports cars. Performance. It can be used for daily groceries and fun on the track. How about I drive one for you?”

"What? Give me one? I don't like sports cars like Taeyeon." When Pani said this, her eyes turned to Taeyeon. Give her a 'sports car'. To her, what Zhang Ping'an meant was a sports car. Even if you can take it to the track and play with it, isn't it still a sports car?

Taeyeon smiled and said: "It just happened to change your car. The Audi RS7 is not bad. It is very soft for daily driving. As long as you don't adjust it to track mode, it is the same as a car like the 'Audi A7' You can think of it as a high-end luxury car, but as long as you don’t break the seal, it’s still a car!”

Listening to Taeyeon's very plain explanation, Pani nodded: "Then I can't take it. It would be nice to let me drive it for a long time. I happened to sell my car and I have been driving it for many years."

Pani has never changed the small car she currently drives because she thinks that her future home will definitely be in Los Angeles, so buying a high-end car in Korea is completely unnecessary consumption, and she is really not very good at it. rich!

Zhang Ping'an suggested: "In that case, let's go take a look after dinner. During this period, we will quickly pass the running-in period, and then we can take advantage of the break to go to the track."

In Tokyo, Zhang Ping'an still has two sports cars, and it's time to try the way of having sports cars on the track.

Cars are men’s toys. Zhang Ping'an has driven a Sanshen car on the street, but he has not driven a Sanshen car on the track. That is a pity. Although he no longer has the Sanshen Car in his hand, he has a vehicle that can replace the Sanshen Car, which can still satisfy his driving pleasure. Especially drift..

...

While eating lunch, Pani said: "I think you like buying cars?" Because Pani was with him when he bought a Bentley last time. It has only been half a year, and he is planning to buy a new car again. , this frequency is still a bit fast.

Zhang Pingan said: "Well, I bought it for fun. You have to find your own fun or your own way of entertainment. When I was studying in Japan, and when I first came to Korea, I liked traveling when I was bored, but now With so much work to do, traveling has become less common. In the past, traveling alone was fine, because at that time it was mainly for fun, but now traveling alone feels a bit boring, so I need to find another way to spend time. , racing is good. Of course I don’t dare to race on the road, but in a safe racing track, at least the safety in the racing track is much higher than on the road.”

Pani frowned and said, "But it's fast, but it's still very dangerous."

Zhang Pingan responded: "There is no interference in the racing track, and even if you are running on the track, the speed of the vehicle is within the speed range that you can control in your heart. This is relatively safe. Of course, there will be loss of control, but that As long as you don't panic, the loss of control will be within the controllable range. At most, the vehicle will be damaged and the person will not be seriously injured. I am not a professional driver and will not pursue excessive speed. "

Taeyeon also said: "The racing track is much safer than the road. Even if you are driving at a reasonable speed on the highway, others may not be driving at a reasonable speed. There may even be people driving drunk."

Pani shook his head and said: "Even if I go to the racing track, I don't dare to drive too fast. By the way, how much does it cost to go to the racing track?"

Zhang Ping'an shook his head and said: "I don't know how the racing track in South Korea charges. If you rent the track in China for one hour, you will have to pay 150,000 Chinese dollars, which works out to more than 20 million won, right?"

When Pani heard the price, his eyes widened and he said, "One hour? More than 20 million won. Isn't this too expensive?"

Zhang Ping'an shook his head and said: "It's not expensive, it's really not expensive. For twenty thousand dollars, you can reserve the venue for an hour. It's a professional racing venue. Only the people you reserve the venue can play. This guarantees your absolute safety."

In fact, if you go to the racing track to play, you can only play for an hour at most and you will be tired. After all, racing is a super concentrated project. After a few laps, you will really feel tired.

Zhang Ping'an continued: "Haha, then you can choose to add another 20 million to buy a racing simulator. It's like the toy that the rich people in the TV series use to play racing at home. The effect is almost the same as a real racing car. , and professional drivers use it for training.”
