In Huayu, the career reward is spy

Chapter 231 Forced to Create a God!

Inside the quiet car, Ji Yu looked at Liu Qianqian's longing gaze and hesitated, wondering whether he should let her give it a try.

The GTR is too different from the training car, and it can't help with control.

However, Liu Qianqian had been withdrawn for so long, and it was only recently that she developed a strong desire for something. Ji Yu was worried that refusing her would worsen her condition.

After hesitating for a long time, he looked at Liu Qianqian and said, "You can try. But you have to listen to me. You absolutely cannot try it before I agree."

Liu Xiaoli quickly said, "Ji Yu, no, it's too dangerous! Qianqian, listen to your mother, let's not try it."

Shu Chang was also conflicted, unsure whether to support him or not. She was also worried about the danger, but considering that Ji Yu had agreed, she gritted her teeth and said, "Qianqian, I support you! With Brother Ji Yu around, you'll definitely be safe!"

Liu Qianqian didn't say anything, she just quietly looked at Liu Xiaoli.

Liu Xiaoli was silent for a moment, then finally nodded in agreement: "You must listen to Ji Yu and not suddenly accelerate like you did just now!"

Liu Qianqian nodded gently.

Ji Yu comforted Liu Xiaoli for a few words, then led Liu Qianqian to his GTR.

Liu Qianqian got into the driver's seat, her eyes regaining their sparkle.

"Remember, you can only do what I tell you to do. Fasten your seatbelt, warm up the car after starting it, and carefully feel the engine's breathing."

Following Ji Yu's instructions, she fastened her seatbelt, started the engine, and the car trembled slightly under the roar of the engine.

Seeing that she could understand, Ji Yu began to teach her more skills and knowledge.

A few minutes later, Ji Yu agreed to let her start the car, but the speed had to be kept below 30 mph.

A glint flashed in Liu Qianqian's eyes, and then she slowly pressed the accelerator, and the car moved forward steadily at a low speed.

Ji Yu sat in the passenger seat and patiently taught her how to get familiar with the car, starting from the basic performance and then moving on to specific driving techniques.

Liu Qianqian listened very attentively, her eyes fixed on the front, her expression becoming more and more focused, and her gaze becoming more and more vivid.

After Ji Yu finished speaking, he gently patted the dashboard and encouraged her, "Let's go, Qianqian. Go through a bend, don't drift, take it slow, and do it the way I taught you."

Liu Qianqian obediently followed the instructions and took the corner at a low speed, trying her best to suppress her desire.

After she passed the bend, Ji Yu said, "A professional driver needs to have a good mindset. Anyone can step on the gas, but it's difficult to control one's impulses."

Ida just can't control his emotions and desires... Many people are like that, not just when it comes to driving, so you first need to learn patience and self-control.

Liu Qianqian's eyes flickered, and she nodded blankly, as if she had thought of something and understood its meaning.

Half an hour later, Ji Yu took the initiative to stop the car and asked Liu Qianqian to turn off the engine and get out.

Liu Qianqian was a little reluctant to leave, but she still obediently got out of the car.

Liu Xiaoli immediately ran over and asked, "Qianqian, how is it?"

Liu Qianqian's eyes were bright, and she looked much better than before.

After Ji Yu got out of the car, she suddenly said softly, "I want to learn to drive."

Ji Yu was too far away to hear clearly: "What did you say?"

Shu Chang was about to help her repeat it when Ji Yu glared at her and stopped her.

Liu Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, then sighed and looked at Liu Qianqian encouragingly.

Liu Qianqian bit her lip, a hint of expectation in her eyes, and said firmly, "I want to learn racing."

Ji Yu smiled and said, "That's great, but you're too young to learn go-karting. I'll find you a professional go-karting instructor."

Upon hearing that it was a go-kart, Liu Xiaoli felt much more at ease, knowing that go-karts were safe.

Liu Qianqian seemed somewhat disappointed.

"Don't rush, remember what I taught you, first learn to restrain yourself and be patient."

Liu Qianqian nodded gently, no longer showing any resistance or disappointment.

The group then quietly returned to their hotel to rest.

The next morning, Liu Weiqiang rushed over to find Ji Yu.

"Something's happened!" Liu Weiqiang said anxiously. "The local government refused to let us continue filming, citing the crew's alleged dangerous driving."

Ji Yu hadn't expected this turn of events and asked, "What exactly did they say? Did they need money?"

"They just said that Jingda was a crew member, and the crew bore some responsibility for the accident. They were worried that if the crew continued filming, similar accidents would continue to occur."

"Gone?"

"Gone."

"It shouldn't be a big problem. I'll have someone call and ask."

"Okay, hurry up, we can't delay any longer."

Ji Yu gave an OK sign, then took out his phone and dialed Maki's number, asking her to call and inquire first to gauge their attitude.

Maki called back very quickly.

After hearing what she said, Ji Yu felt a bit screwed up.

The real reason for not allowing the film crew to enter for filming is concern about public opinion, as local residents have complained.

They worry that once this place becomes famous, street racers will come here to race.

Damn it, it could actually happen! There are plenty of street racers in Japan, they might actually do something like that.

Liu Weiqiang was speechless. What kind of bullshit reason was that? Why didn't they refuse in the first place?
Ji Yu smiled wryly: "We weren't that famous at first. The car accident actually brought more attention to this place. I heard that a lot of passionate racers are rushing here."

Liu Weiqiang was stunned: "What are you doing here? To challenge you to a match?"

Ji Yu shrugged helplessly. What else could they do? These people were just incredibly bored.

Liu Weiqiang felt disgusted, as if he had swallowed a fly. He had finally gotten the lead actor, but before filming even started, he was forced to go to a competition by a lunatic.

The mentally ill person got into a car accident, which prevented them from continuing filming!

Ji Yu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I've already asked someone to help persuade them. Spending some money should solve the problem."

Liu Weiqiang couldn't help but sigh and say, "I will never make movies abroad again!"

Ji Yu couldn't help but laugh: "If all else fails, see if you have any backup options."

Liu Weiqiang had walked through many mountains when he was scouting locations, and after thinking about it, he felt that this method might work.

"I'll go check the location scouting data from back then," Liu Weiqiang said, walking away. A few seconds later, he circled back. "You should also hurry up and find someone to smooth things over. Make preparations on both sides!"

"Don't worry!" Ji Yu assured him.

The smell of disinfectant mixed with the morning light seeped into the ward. Yuji Ida, wearing a ventilator, stared blankly at the ceiling.

The monitor beside the bed was ticking away, and more than a dozen reporters were quietly filming, not daring to turn on the flash, for fear that the family would kick him out.

"Mr. Ida, what are your thoughts on last night's mountain road accident?"

"Is it true that you deliberately provoked Ji Yu, which ultimately led to the car accident?"

"After investigation, it was determined that your GTR was speeding when entering the corner, and the loss of control was due to technical error."

"Some people say that you were subjected to despicable tactics during the competition, which led to your mistakes. This incident is a malicious publicity stunt by Ji Yu." Although the voice was soft, these questions were very heavy.

Jing Tian's throat was dry. He hadn't expected to face such questioning so soon after waking up.

A reporter showed him a photo of the wreckage of his GTR.

Outside the ward, a television broadcast van had blocked the emergency room access.

NHK's morning news program interrupted with footage of the accident, the anchor excitedly announcing: "Mr. Ida has regained consciousness and is currently being interviewed. We will soon learn the true details of the accident, whether the facts match Ji Yu's description, that he is completely innocent, and..."

Ji Yu's incident has attracted a lot of attention; with all these factors combined, it's hard for it not to go viral.

However, there is considerable controversy now, with many people doubting that the facts are as Ji Yu described.

Everyone knows that Ji Yu has excellent drifting skills. After all, he was last year's D1 champion, so his strength is beyond doubt.

The key issue is that the mountain roads here are wide and more complicated, and this is Ji Yu's first time here, having only traveled this route once before, and there are two other people in the car.

Ida is no ordinary person, so how could he have lost so badly? Therefore, many people suspect that there are other issues involved.

There's a lot of discussion about this on Japanese online forums, and the comments are basically polarized.

"Ida has disgraced Japan! Ji Yu's skills are completely professional-level!"

"Ji Yu definitely used despicable means, most likely to deliberately create hype! How could he possibly win when he only traveled the route once and the car was heavier!"

In the ward, Jing Tian mustered some strength, looked at the cameras pointed at him, and said with difficulty, "I lost. Ji Yu's skills are much better than mine. I admit defeat wholeheartedly."

Upon hearing this, the reporters could no longer resist and began frantically pressing their shutters.

The ward instantly became noisy, and the nurses quickly began to shoo them away to prevent them from disturbing the patient's rest.

Soon, related news reports appeared, and Jing Tian Su Xing admitted that he had lost, and there was no so-called conspiracy, nor was it a publicity stunt.

Ida's frankness instantly broke the defenses of many car enthusiasts.

How is that possible! How could Ji Yu's skills be so amazing!

On those mountain roads, how could you dare to drive at top speed if you didn't know the road conditions?
If you misjudge the road conditions after a bend, it could very well result in a fatal accident!

And he brought people with him! It's not like he brought a navigator; the passengers in the car would only be a burden and a nuisance!
After Ida's remarks were made public, many people praised Ji Yu, calling him the new generation's drifting god.

However, many people also criticized Ida, saying that he disgraced Japanese drivers.

In a formal competition, everyone is on equal footing, so it's understandable if someone loses.

How could you lose when you had such a huge advantage? You even publicly admitted that you were inferior in skill; you trampled on the dignity of Japanese drivers!
Public opinion, fueled by the media, quickly turned into a storm, with many passionate young drivers wanting to challenge Ji Yu to a race, hoping to restore the dignity of Japanese drivers.

This situation has made the local government more cautious, and they dare not open the mountain roads at will.

Maki was almost able to smooth things over, but now she's in trouble again.

Ji Yu laughed. What a load of crap!

Okay, okay, let’s play like this, right?
He originally didn't intend to capitalize on this wave of attention, but since the local government wouldn't allow them to film, he had no choice but to exert pressure in return!
Ji Yu immediately called Huo Wenxi and asked her to contact several investors to start creating public opinion throughout East and Southeast Asia.

Huo Wenxi really wanted to yell at him, but she held back!

"What's wrong? You seem upset." Ji Yu sensed something was wrong and asked cautiously.

Huo Wenxi said with a headache, "There are too many things to do at the company. We just finished checking the accounts of the branch offices, and now we are preparing for the press conference. We need to contact and communicate with dozens of artists about their activities, and we also have to guard against those branch office bosses doing something wrong. The expansion of the security company is not going smoothly. I really don't have the energy to help you with publicity."

After listening, Ji Yu immediately said, "I'm sorry, I didn't think it through and relied on you too much. I'll find someone else to do it. You focus on your own work, and I'll help you with it when I get back."

"Also, arrange a trip to Japan for the disobedient branch managers. I'll treat them to hot springs and make room for you. If they don't come, just say I'll have someone personally invite them."

That's all Ji Yu can do.

After hearing this, Huo Wenxi felt much better and relaxed slightly, saying:

“Go ask Jiang Zhiqiang to help you. I just signed a contract with him the day before yesterday. He should be in Hong Kong signing a contract with Sister Cai right now.”

"Okay, then I'll go find him."

Ji Yu paused for a moment, then changed the subject, asking, "Have you been getting enough rest lately? Have you been eating on time?"

"I don't get much sleep, but I eat on time, and someone cooks for me every day."

"Who?"

"It's Xiao Ran. She's also having dinner with Bingbing tonight."

"No...is something wrong with you?"

Ji Yu was a little confused. He had only been gone for a few days!
Isn't this all a bit surreal?
Huo Wenxi laughed and said, "I arranged to meet them after you left, so what's so surprising? Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. If you're angry, you can call them now."

"Then you go ahead with your work. I'll contact Jiang Zhiqiang. Tell those troublemakers at the branch office to come over right now. Damn it, if they dare not come when I'm treating, I'll kick them all off the table!"

Huo Wenxi's face turned cold after hearing this: "Ji Yu, stop being sarcastic and just say what you want to say!"

Ji Yu immediately smiled and said, "I'm done talking, I'm hanging up now, Muah~ Love you!"

Huo Wenxi couldn't help but roll her eyes at his joking voice.

After throwing a tantrum with sarcastic remarks, give them a sweet treat.

Do you really think she's a three-year-old girl?
If Ji Yu dares to kick her off the table, he'll turn around and steal all his other women away, leaving him to eat air on the table!

Meanwhile, Ji Yu had already dialed Jiang Zhiqiang's number and explained everything.

"While conducting marketing and promotion, we must pay attention to exerting pressure from public opinion. I will cooperate with you in Japan, and the filming of the production cannot be delayed."

Jiang Zhiqiang, who was far away in Hong Kong, laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'll start making arrangements right away."

"Okay, I'll wait for your message."

Jiang Zhiqiang had long realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime publicity opportunity.

Now that Ji Yu is calling him personally, he instantly goes into battle mode.

They quickly located Lao Cai and then notified Yinghuang and Shanghai Film Group, thus launching a publicity campaign to promote the film and Ji Yu.

Mainstream media outlets in many Southeast Asian countries received materials related to Initial D almost simultaneously.

Many posts about Ji Yu and Initial D have also appeared on the internet in various countries.

Under Jiang Zhiqiang's meticulous planning, several companies worked together and mobilized all available resources to stir up trouble throughout Southeast Asia!
Who says Initial D has no chance to become the next hero?

Even more potential than heroes!
Racing is not like martial arts history; it has a wider audience and greater potential!
Jiang Zhiqiang's preparations went beyond just public opinion coverage; he also had a small plan.

"Is this Maxim quite famous in the racing world?" Jiang Zhiqiang asked his assistant.

"Very famous, but was banned from competition in multiple locations last year."

Jiang Zhiqiang laughed and said, "It's him. Go contact him."

Was it a fixed match or a real one?

"Of course it's a real race."

"What if Ji Yu loses?" the assistant asked worriedly.

Jiang Zhiqiang slammed his fist on the table. "You know about match-fixing, but Ji Yu doesn't?"
