Chapter 450: Activating the Persuasion Mode
Even an average team would have second thoughts about accepting a boy like him, who had never competed in an actual competition and was unknown in the racing industry. Furthermore, Fire was a rising team that had been climbing up the rankings in the country.
Have you competed in a race before?
Lin Yan probed softly as she peered at the boy.
Errr..
The boy nodded bashfully. I took part in some friendly races We were just fellow racing fans who learned together
Lin Yan was speechless
Those werent proper competitions.
Are you here to apply for a job?
The boy surveyed Lin Yan curiously. She hadnt answered when hed asked her the first time.
Im not. Lin Yan smiled warmly at him. Im here to recruit racers.
Huh?
The boy widened his eyes in surprise as he gawked at Lin Yan.
Are you one of the staff members of Fire who is in charge of recruitment? asked the boy.
I have nothing to do with Fire. Im from another team, answered Lin Yan.
Another team Which team is that? The boy looked interested.
Err
Lin Yan had no idea how she should bring up the name of the He family team.
Can I take a look at your rsum? She cut across curtly as she avoided the question.
Sure. The boy opened his bag and took out some documents before passing them to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan perused his rsum to get to know him better.
His name was Yun Xuan and he had just graduated. He loved racing and had joined a team as a part-time racer out of interest.
However, he was a student, so he didnt have good equipment. He had mostly rented or borrowed equipment. The competitions he had participated in were friendly competitions with amateur teams.
As for Yun Xuans results, he had finished first in all 16 competitions.
In his rsum, he had included his own understanding of racing. He had also written about navigators and the knowledge and techniques required.
However, using this to be accepted by Fire was a long shot. In fact, it was nearly impossible.
Any average team these days would only accept racers who had amassed a certain level of achievements.
Lin Yan spoke after she mulled this over quietly. If you want to be accepted by a prestigious team, you have to prove yourself first.
This rule applied to international teams as well.
Then what should I do? Yun Xuan glanced at Lin Yan.
Lin Yan replied in a heartbeat, Join a small team first. Build your reputation and train well. If you really have the capability, good teams will come to poach you.
A small team
Yun Xuan looked slightly hesitant. But I dont really want to join a small team. Its not about the money. Its just that they are usually too weak and I wont be able to learn anything
Lin Yan sized up Yun Xuan with curiosity.
So this boy wanted to join a prominent team with the intention to learn?
Top teams paid their racers well and recruited racers who could help them win competitions. They didnt spend money on racers so that they could learn and improve, unless someone displayed astonishing potential, which was a rare occurrence.
