Waiting for Your Call

After everyone got to know each other, Qin He walked to the front, looked at the crowd, and cleared his throat.

"Everyone, as you probably know, the main purpose of today's party is to welcome the five new senior members joining our club."

"That is, these five," Qin He said, pointing at Su Yang and the others.

"Since you've all met, I won't introduce them one by one. Besides welcoming our five new members today, there's another important matter, and that is livestreaming."

"Do you see the livestreaming equipment set up in front of the cars? Later, I'll go live using our club's Douyin account for some promotion."

"After all, it's rare to gather over a dozen top-tier supercars today, so we should let our fans and netizens enjoy the view. Our account already has a base of seventy to eighty thousand followers, so we can take this opportunity to see if we can gain a few more."

"Absolutely!" Xiao Du laughed. "Not to mention anything else, just these dozen cars alone will definitely add tens of thousands of followers to our account."

Qin He turned to look at Xiao Du. "Don't speak too soon. If we end up not even gaining a couple of thousand followers, that would be a slap in the face."

"Haha, impossible!"

Qin He smiled and continued, "Besides me livestreaming, I've also invited a few streamer friends. They are practically massive influencers on Douyin; any one of them has millions of followers."

"Having professionals come over to help with the livestream promotion is definitely better than my efforts alone. However, they won't arrive for a little while, so let's wait a bit. We can chat and have some drinks first."

"One last thing before I stop rambling: today's party officially starts at 5:30. The main agenda is eating, drinking, and having fun, with the livestream promotion on the side."

"When I go live later, I'll introduce all dozen or so of these cars. After all, this is a supercar party, so the cars should be the main focus."

"After dinner, a very popular beautiful girl dance troupe will come over to perform. That's about it. Alright, I'm done speaking."

As Qin He finished, Liu Bo stepped forward and smiled. "Brother Qin, what beautiful girl dance troupe?"

"Haha, Brother Bo, you sure know how to catch the main point!"

"Hehe, besides cars, my biggest hobby is watching little dances," Liu Bo grinned.

"Haha, then Brother Bo is in for a treat later. Anyway, they are all very eye-catching beauties; you'll see later."

"Alright."

After Qin He's brief introduction, everyone scattered. Some went to look at the cars, while others went to the long table to drink and chat.

Zhang Ziming, Ji Bo, and Chu Qiunan walked towards Su Yang and Meng Wenzhou.

They took out cigarettes and lit them. Meng Wenzhou looked at Su Yang and asked, "Old Su, do you have plans tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?"

"Yeah, I plan to go check out the racing circuit tomorrow."

"Tomorrow probably won't work. I have to go to Pan Pan's house for dinner."

"Oh? You're going there so soon?"

"Yeah, it's making me a little nervous."

"Haha, what's there to be nervous about? Just act normal. I'm rooting for you."

"Since you're going to Pan Pan's house tomorrow, how about we move the racing circuit visit to the day after tomorrow?"

"The day after tomorrow should be fine," Su Yang said after taking a drag from his cigarette.

"Alright, the day after tomorrow it is. We'll go look at the track and then chat with the owner of the racing circuit."

"OK."

"Are you guys going?" Meng Wenzhou turned to look at Zhang Ziming and the others.

"Of course we're going. We're partners too; how could we miss such a big event?"

"Sure, then we'll all go together. Xiao Ji, although you're not investing in this project for now, it's best if you come along to take a look too."

"Alright!"

Chu Qiunan then asked, "Old Meng, is the racing circuit you mentioned far from where we are now?"

"It shouldn't be too far, maybe five or six kilometers."

Chu Qiunan nodded. "Is its track still usable right now?"

"It should be. It's just that the circuit is basically sitting idle right now, so some of the buffer zones inside are full of weeds, and the track itself might be quite dirty. But if you just want to take a lap, it shouldn't be a problem."

"Then let's take a lap for fun when we get there?"

"Sure."

"OK, it's been a while since I've been on a track anyway. We'll have a good run the day after tomorrow."

"No problem. Shall we compare lap times then?" Meng Wenzhou suggested.

"Sure! Hehe, I like the sound of that. We can finally race openly and legally."

As they were chatting, Qin He, who was not far away holding a cigar, walked over with a curious look on his face. "What lap times and racing are you guys talking about? Tell me about it too."

Seeing Qin He approaching, Meng Wenzhou and Su Yang exchanged a glance and gave a slight nod.

Then, Meng Wenzhou briefly told Qin He about their plans to acquire the Qinglianshan Racing Circuit.

After hearing this, Qin He asked with great interest, "How come I've never heard of the Qinglianshan Racing Circuit?"

"It's not very famous to begin with. Few people outside of Haicheng know about it."

"Oh, I see. So you guys are planning to partner up and acquire this racing circuit together?"

"Yes," Old Meng smiled, exhaling a puff of smoke.

Qin He rolled his eyes thoughtfully. "You're going to check out the venue the day after tomorrow?"

"Yeah. Why, Lao Qin, are you interested?"

"Honestly, Old Meng, do you think a car lover like me wouldn't be interested in a racing circuit?"

"To tell you the truth, after hearing what you guys said, I kind of want to buy some shares too. Even though I don't know the current situation of this racing circuit you mentioned, as long as it's related to racing, I want in on the fun."

Meng Wenzhou and Su Yang exchanged another glance, and both nodded and smiled.

Su Yang took over the conversation and looked at Qin He. "Lao Qin, since you're also interested, how about this: come with us to the racing circuit the day after tomorrow to take a look."

"None of us except Old Meng have been there before. If we all think it looks good after seeing it, and you're still interested, then how about we take it over together?"

Hearing this, Qin He looked at Su Yang. "Really? You're willing to let me join?"

"Of course. We're all car lovers. Since we share the same passion, let's do it together."

"Great! As expected of Old Su, you've got a broad perspective."

Meng Wenzhou then added, "Actually, our desire to take over this racing circuit is partly because we love racing, but also because we want to turn it into a renowned international venue like the Haicheng International Racing Circuit. Having you join can provide us with more resources. After all, you definitely know more people in the car community than we do."

Qin He nodded, looking somewhat excited. "Sure thing, absolutely no problem!"

"Actually, when I was in Hangcheng last year, I had the urge to secure a piece of land and build a racing circuit myself."

"But why didn't I ever get around to doing it? The reasons are simple. Building a large-scale racing circuit from scratch requires a massive amount of capital, acquiring the land is extremely troublesome, and the construction process takes way too much time. So, I dropped the idea."

"But now that there's a ready-made racing circuit right in front of me, I have to brazenly ask to get a piece of the action."

"Hahaha, great! Since that's the case, let's go check it out together the day after tomorrow and have a chat with the boss there. If we all feel good about it and the price is right, we'll go in on it together!" Meng Wenzhou said.

"Alright, I'll wait for your call then."

"No problem."

The group chatted for a long time, and before they knew it, it was already 5:30 PM.

By this time, the seven or eight streamer friends Qin He had invited had all arrived.

The group consisted of both guys and girls, all of whom were relatively well-known influencers on TikTok.

Even the one with the lowest follower count had over 1.5 million fans, while the most popular among them, a guy who specialized in car content, boasted over 7 million followers.

Once everyone was accounted for, they made their way inside the hotel for dinner.
