The next day.

After a night shrouded in gloom and despair, and with the international race looming just ahead, Chi Mingkun clenched his teeth and stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray, standing up, “I’m going to talk to the manager of the Hummer Team and Zhang Ziyi again.”
“With Zhang Ziyi?” Qi Yuan and the others were shocked, unsure what Chi Mingkun was planning to do.
Without further explanation, Ming Kun drove straight to the Hummer Team.
At that moment.
Inside the team’s office, the manager of the Hummer Team was pouring tea for Ziyi, who sat at the head of the table, with an ingratiating smile, “Mr. Zhang, you could have just called me. There was no need to trouble yourself by coming all the way here.”
Ziyi was holding his teacup, about to speak with a smile, when an assistant knocked, came in, and, after a respectful greeting to Ziyi, leaned close to the manager’s ear and whispered something.
The manager’s expression darkened instantly, waving his hand in impatience, “Don’t let him in, tell him we have no possibility of cooperation, it’s a waste of time no matter how many times he comes.”
The assistant nodded and turned to leave, but Ziyi suddenly spoke up, “Who’s coming?”
“Chi Mingkun.” Facing Ziyi, the manager forced a fawning smile, “He’s been coming around a lot recently, but rest assured, I’ve rejected him outright, I haven’t even met with him!”
Ziyi raised his eyebrows, amused, “Let him in, I’m quite curious to hear what he has to say!”
The manager really didn’t want Chi Mingkun to come over, but since Ziyi had spoken, he could only say to the assistant, “Let him in!”
The assistant turned and left.
In no time at all, Chi Mingkun walked in.
He looked haggard from a sleepless night, with red eyes, and his normally meticulous hair somewhat disheveled.
It contrasted sharply with Ziyi, who sat in the prime seat, looking sleek and polished.
Ming Kun, upon seeing Ziyi, stiffened momentarily, his fist clenching involuntarily.
But soon, he relaxed his grip and bowed his head, speaking sincerely to the manager and Mr. Zhang, “I’ve come this time to ask… Mr. Zhang, for the broadcasting rights of the team member with the least popularity to be given to me…”
With a bite of his teeth, he continued, “Whatever the cost or conditions, name your price!”
Chi Mingkun had barely spoken when Ziyi let out a scornful laugh, “Chi Mingkun, who do you think you are? What makes you think you’re in any position for me to name conditions?”
The manager too shook his head with a smile, “Just a kid, Mr. Zhang, don’t take him too seriously.”
He turned to Ming Kun and sighed, “You should just leave. Not just you, even the entire Chi Family added together couldn’t compare to even a hair of the Zhang Family.”
Chi Mingkun stood rooted to the spot, his usually haughty face flushed with anger.
He had never been ridiculed so mercilessly before.
If it were just about him, he would never have subjected himself to this humiliation!
If he couldn’t broadcast this year and lost money, so what? He could always start over next year.
But for Qi Yuan and the others… their families were not particularly wealthy to begin with, all because they believed in him, they were willing to follow him into the racing industry.
There were two team members whose families were even waiting for them to bring money back home…
Ming Kun clenched his fists tight, asking in a cold tone, “What will it take for you to step back?”
After he was done speaking, Ziyi laughed again.
Shaking his head, the manager thought to himself, what a naive kid.
It was clear that Ziyi had signed with their team to run Ming Kun into the ground, so why would he possibly back down?
And Ziyi had already signed Lucine, a star with global popularity ranked in the top thirty, ensuring that their livestream viewership would at least be number one in the country, if not within the top five.
Why would he offend Zhang Ziyi for the sake of Chi Mingkun’s small guild that couldn’t even rank?
After enough laughter, Ziyi spoke sarcastically, “Don’t you have an amazing, all-capable sister? Go find her! Or what, does your sister’s influence only extend within the country, and she’s nothing internationally?”
Before his words had concluded, Qi Yuan suddenly stumbled through the doorway.
Without even glancing at Zhang Ziyi or the manager, he fixed his eyes on Chi Mingkun, his face a mix of terror and excitement, bizarre to the extreme.
“Ming Kun, bro… it’s, it’s terrible… the manager from the ‘world’ Team is really here to sign with us!!”
