"How many years older is Hamilton compared to Qin Miao?"

"Hamilton is now 36, Qin Miao is just 20, so that makes Hamilton 16 years older than Qin Miao, more than a full cycle."

"How can he be so much older? I thought their age gap might be within a cycle."

"It's mainly because Qin Miao is so young. He's only twenty and already driving for Mercedes."

"It's hard to imagine that they can get along so well with such a large age difference."

The routine interview ended, and Qin Miao only talked about the problems he encountered on the track. He avoided other topics whenever possible, revealing little useful information post-race.

After the interview, Qin Miao found Barber, and the two returned to the team's paddock to wrap up their work, signifying the end of today's tasks.

However, after finishing his work, Qin Miao did not leave the paddock as usual because there was a small event scheduled today, organized by FOM.

The event involved inviting drivers to participate in some fun Q&A, and then editing their answers to be posted on the official website for fans to watch.

In the past, Qin Miao would typically not attend such events, and neither would Hamilton.

Hamilton doesn't participate because his influence is already significant enough, and he's not interested in small gains. Besides, Hamilton has more important matters to attend to and rarely has time to spare.

Qin Miao wouldn't join as he felt there was no need for him to participate; the benefits offered were unnecessary for him at the time.

But now things are different. He needs enough strength, influence, and fame to avoid continuing as the number 2 driver.

Qin Miao is not lacking in strength, but he's somewhat lacking in the latter two aspects, hence he needs to keep busy to fill this gap.

The organizers were somewhat surprised that Qin Miao accepted the invitation because drivers from Mercedes typically don't participate in such events, and Qin Miao had refused them before, leading them to believe he was following the Mercedes tradition.

Of course, once they knew Qin Miao was preparing to participate, they were happy about it. After all, Qin Miao is a very strong driver, and due to his nationality and connection with Mercedes, FOM understands the potential in Qin Miao.

It's also been heard that just because Qin Miao joined Mercedes, Mercedes sales in China increased by 5%.

That 5% might not sound like much, but given the current climate, the global economic situation is still declining. Amidst a period where all car companies are struggling, only Mercedes saw an increase in sales due to Qin Miao.

This shows how strong Qin Miao's influence is among car enthusiasts in the country.

Anyone who likes Qin Miao and considers buying a car will undoubtedly consider Mercedes first, this is star power.

"Qin, thank you for coming to the interview. Stand at the intersection of those two pieces of tape." The speaker was a woman who looked about thirty years old.

She had chestnut-colored hair, typical European facial features, wore a short-sleeved shirt with the FIA logo, and a FIA official staff vest over it, along with black trousers.

Having spent so much time abroad, Qin Miao now had a basic understanding of the appearance of European and American people. Europeans generally look older in the eyes of Asians, so this FIA staff might look thirty, but her actual age could be around twenty-three or twenty-four.

Wearing his Mercedes team uniform and hat, Qin Miao stood at the designated spot and curiously glanced around.

This was a temporary studio set up next to the paddock, looking like a food stall from the outside, only the canopy was white with FIA and FOM logos on it.

The inside, compared to the simple appearance, seemed quite good.

Professional audio and video equipment, a subtle yet tasteful backdrop, and appropriate lighting offered clear visibility of the driver to the audience during interviews.

"Alright." Qin Miao, having settled in, curiously asked, "When do we start?"

"Actually, we've already started, your reactions entering the frame will be recorded, and since it's your first time at our event, your footage might be more than usual and will probably be included in the upcoming show."

Qin Miao was somewhat surprised but nodded knowingly, saying, "Interesting."

The next part was a rapid-fire Q&A, where the host asked a question, and Qin Miao needed to answer within three seconds or otherwise had the option to skip.

For example:

"Between understeering and oversteering, which do you prefer?"

"Understeering."

"During vacations, do you prefer staying at home or traveling?"

"Stay home."

"Aerobic or anaerobic exercise?"

"Aerobic."

Of course, if faced with questions he couldn't answer, he could choose to skip.

"Between a music concert and an opera, which would you choose to attend?"

"...Pass, I don't want to go to either, I just want to stay home."

Host: ...

I didn't know our questions were linked!
