Chapter 108: Chinese Drivers Dominate Renault (Double-Length)_4
No wonder it has millions of views; this really highlights the importance of a good headline.
"European journalists have truly mastered the essence of news writing; their headlines really have something to them."
Chen Xiangbei admired briefly, didn't open the video content, and casually prepared to return the phone to Lu Xiaoman.
"Even if you don't watch the content, at least look at the comments; there are thousands of them."
Lu Xiaoman didn't take the phone back, but indicated for Chen Xiangbei to take a closer look.
"It's headline hype plus a Chinese driver; even without looking, I know what the comments will say. I'd better not make myself uncomfortable."
Chen Xiangbei laughed and replied, having been through the online environment after over ten years, doesn't he already have some idea what might be said?
"It's not that exaggerated; actually, there's quite a lot of encouragement, and many fellow countrymen cheering for you. Just take a look."
Hearing this, Chen Xiangbei swiped the screen, scrolling down to the comment section.
[The first Chinese Renault Formula champion, go Chen Xiangbei!]
[Driver Bei, don't care about foreign criticisms, we support you!]
[Wuwu, finally seeing a Chinese driver win a championship, it's just like a dream.]
[Chen Xiangbei, I hope to see you create history again.]
[Bei, your performance on the track has won me over, Chinese drivers can be geniuses too!]
Looking at these encouraging comments one by one, Chen Xiangbei suddenly felt a mix of emotions inside.
The foundation of "hype," the result of championship; he's no longer an obscure fringe player, at least now he has some fame in online circles.
"How's that, I wasn't lying to you, actually there are quite a lot of supporters."
"Maybe at the next race at Donington Park Circuit, you can see your fans in the audience."
Lu Xiaoman teased with a smile, the value and influence of being a champion is enormous, even if it's just a Renault Formula champion.
Also, one must admit that Odetto and Sky Sports accidentally made a perfect combination, otherwise the popularity of Chen Xiangbei couldn't have reached such heights.
"Not bad."
Chen Xiangbei smiled and handed the phone back.
Just then, from the direction of the bar, a whistle sounded, and a stocky white man with a beard winked towards Chen Xiangbei and Lu Xiaoman.
"Xiaoman, seems like your fans are no less than mine."
Chen Xiangbei joked, today in this bar, there were dozens of people from the Super Dream racing team.
If anyone with bad intentions dared to come over and cause trouble, they'd surely learn why flowers are so red!
"Not necessarily."
Lu Xiaoman's face revealed a playful smile at this moment.
It was as though this smile encouraged the white stocky man, who then raised his glass and walked towards their booth.
Ayong, being younger and having never been to a bar, was sitting next to Chen Xiangbei, witnessing the whole scene.
Seeing the foreigner's bold move, he immediately asked Chen Xiangbei, "Bei, do you want me to take care of him?"
Ayong, over 1.8 meters tall, always fixing cars and exercising, was as strong as an ox, the kind Chen Xiangbei would "surrender" to, and could knock out this foreigner with one punch.
"Ayong, don't be too impulsive, we need to be rational in a law-abiding society."
Chen Xiangbei advised, considering their half a bar full of their own people, not thinking of punishment, but afraid of losing control if things got physical.
"Okay, Bei."
Ayong nodded, yet his hand somehow found its way to a beer bottle.
The stranger with a drink came to their booth, but his target for striking a conversation wasn't Lu Xiaoman, instead, he said to Ayong, "BOY, can I get to know you?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was petrified, staring wide-eyed at the scene.
Chen Xiangbei felt as if he was struck by lightning, utterly dumbfounded.
He thought the man was trying to bother Lu Xiaoman, never expecting he'd target Ayong sitting beside him!
Having only joked about terms like "the land of Brit," "Engayland" online, who would think they'd encounter it in reality?
"Haha~~~!"
At this moment, Lu Xiaoman sprayed out her drink, laughing heartily.
Especially seeing Ayong's face turning bright red, holding a beer bottle not knowing what to do, she clutched her stomach, almost breathless.
Indeed, being too well-built not only attracts the opposite gender's attention but also draws the same gender's notice.
Today, the "young fellow" really gained some knowledge…
