Chapter 246 - 246 Can He Hire Me?
246 Can He Hire Me?
Speaking of which, this was also a characteristic of the people of Thailand. In terms of car-building, the people of Thailand disdained people from any country and thought that their cars were trash. However, in terms of supercars, they were more superstitious about supercars of Western descent, especially brands from several countries in Western Europe.
In fact, weren’t the car companies in Thailand strong enough? Couldn’t they create supercars? Of course not, but no one bought their cars.
However, from Lu Jun’s words, this brand should be a brand from Thailand. Unfortunately, Chen Yun had never heard of it.
Coincidentally, not far from Chen Yun stood a girl in a school uniform. She looked to be at most 14 or 15 years old and had a ponytail. She looked gentle and quiet, but to be able to appear here, she was probably not very quiet. However, she was really good-looking. One look and one could tell that she was a beauty.
Chen Yun looked at Lin Yuhan and Zou Runbei, who had gotten out of the car, and asked, “Do you know this car?”
He wasn’t interested in participating in the conflict between Lu Jun and Sha Jinghai. He didn’t show off either. He just quietly watched Lu Jun show off.
Lin Yuhan and the others also shook their heads. In the next moment, a young lady came over and looked at Chen Yun. She observed him before curling her lips and saying, “Brother, aren’t you the driver who came with Young Master Lu? You don’t even recognize this car. You’re so unprofessional.”
Clearly, when this young lady saw that Chen Yun had gotten out of the driver’s seat, she thought that he was Lu Jun’s driver.
“Driver…” For a moment, Lin Yuhan and the others held back their laughter. Chen Yun waved his hand indifferently and looked at the girl.
“It looks like you know this car. Why don’t you tell me?” Of course, Chen Yun would not argue with a young lady.
“You’re an ignorant bumpkin. This is Heaven’s Thorn, a very niche supercar brand from Thailand. However, you shouldn’t think that its niche technology is bad. It’s said that its speed can reach a limit of about 410 kilometers per hour, and it takes about 2.8 seconds to accelerate to 100 kilometers per hour,” explained the little girl immediately.
Chen Yun nodded. He had really never heard of this brand, but this young lady spoke logically. Clearly, she knew about it.
“However, I’m still optimistic about the Thunder Dragon F11! Oh my god, I haven’t seen the Thunder Dragon F11 with my own eyes. The real car is much more charming than videos and photos.” The female companion beside the ponytailed girl immediately interrupted in a low voice.
“The limit of the Thunder Dragon F11’s acceleration to 100 kilometers per hour is only 2.6 seconds. It’s only an improvement of 0.2 seconds. Its limit is only 450 kilometers per hour. Although it’s said that it can still explode with greater power, the officials have restricted it. How big do you think the difference between these two statistics is? Moreover, if it’s a bend, the Thunder Dragon F11 can still rely on its powerful ground grabbing ability, stability, and bending performance to widen the gap. Coupled with Young Master Lu’s skills, he should be able to win,” said the ponytailed girl confidently.
Chen Yun and the others beside her could not help but be amused. Damn, they did not expect this young lady to be a technical person.
“Cut the crap. Do you want to compete or not? It’s fine as long as the niche car can beat you. Isn’t it just a Thunder Dragon F11? So what? I’ll teach you a lesson today. However, your car isn’t expensive enough. You have to make up for it.” Sha Jinghai sneered. After saying that, Sha Jinghai opened the car door. The driver walked out and Sha Jinghai got in.
Meanwhile, the Thunder Dragon F11 was finally placed safely on the ground.
“If we compete, there’s no problem with the money.” Lu Jun sneered.
“Aiyo, are you going to do it yourself? Don’t blame me for bullying you. Why don’t I give you a chance? Let your driver do it. At least he’s more professional.” Sha Jinghai looked at Chen Yun in the car and looked at Lu Jun mockingly.
“Driver?” Lu Jun glanced at Chen Yun and smiled. However, he did not explain and simply said, “I can do it myself.”
With that, Lu Jun quickly walked over and got into the Thunder Dragon F11. Then, he started the car. The low engine sound quickly began to roar. Lu Jun asked the people at the side, “Do you mind if I take a spin around to warm up the tires first? It was just towed back from the plane. I haven’t even driven it yet.”
“Alright, I’ll give you a chance to get familiar with it. If you don’t think it’s enough, we can compete tomorrow.” The disdain in Sha Jinghai’s tone could be heard.
Lu Jun didn’t mind either. Did he expect his enemy to treat him well? If he was angry from this, he would have been angered to death long ago.
Lu Jun immediately started the car and darted out. The red rear lights quickly disappeared into the night.
“What do you think? Who will win and who will lose?” Chen Yun was bored from waiting and could not help but ask Lin Yuhan and Zou Runbei.
Lin Yuhan and Zou Runbei didn’t know anything about cars either. They happened to look at the two girls beside them. “We don’t understand. What do you think?”
The best friend beside the ponytailed girl looked at Chen Yun and said, “I think Sha Jinghai will win.”
“Why? I think Young Master Lu will win.” The delinquent girl who had spoken to Chen Yun previously was a loyal fan of Lu Jun. She kept calling him by his nickname.
“It’s very simple. Extreme acceleration isn’t something ordinary people can make use of. It’s something a racer uses. If the two of them race, it’s already not bad for them to accelerate to 100 kilometers per hour in four seconds. Don’t forget that Sha Jinghai’s brother defeated Young Master Lu back then. I heard that Sha Jinghai isn’t inferior to his brother.” Her best friend looked at the girl with a ponytail and shrugged.
Chen Yun was a little surprised. It seemed that these girls really knew about cars. Usually, when everyone saw the so-called limit of accelerating to 100 kilometers per hour in 2.8 seconds, they thought that everyone could drive at this speed, but that was not the case.
Just as the girl had said, it depended on the launch. The so-called launch was to step on the accelerator and brakes together before starting. The tires would spin crazily on the spot, and when the speed increased, the brakes would be released. Only then could they accelerate.
“Why don’t you drive for Young Master Wang?” The girl beside the ponytail suddenly thought of something and asked Chen Yun.
“Why should I drive for him?” Chen Yun was a little confused.
“Aren’t you his driver? Since Young Master Lu can use you as his driver, it means that you’re definitely better at driving than him.” This girl was quite honest.
“I’m not his driver.” Chen Yun was a little speechless. He just didn’t explain. Who told her that he was Lu Jun’s driver? What a joke. Could Lu Jun afford to hire him?
“Aiya, we don’t despise you. Don’t worry,” explained the girl very considerately.
Chen Yun was speechless. What did this have to do with them despising him.
It was mainly because in Chen Yun’s eyes, Lu Jun and Sha Jinghai were too lousy. Chen Yun had obtained the title of the God of Racing a long time ago. The title of the God of Racing was not casually said. In Chen Yun’s opinion, the Nine Dragons Bend was simply like a straight road. On the way up the mountain just now, Chen Yun had already figured out the path of the Nine Dragons Bend.
