Unlike the previous few days, today, after Chen Guang finished his race, he went straight to the stage of locking the car and taking the money. At the same time, he had to determine the method of tomorrow's car protection battle.
There had never been a car race like today, where there were six car kings and a car king's son in the fourth round.
Ryoichi Takahashi and Watan Junyao had long been determined to participate in the first round of the car protection battle, but it was not clear how the five people who arrived later would participate.
At present, in addition to Ryoichi Takahashi and Watan Junyao, there were two other ordinary drivers who had signed up for the first round of the car protection battle.
But it was obvious that there were seven car king level players, and there were not enough seats. The two people who had signed up before were basically out of the picture.
The world's top ten car kings were generally about the same level.
There were three people who were recognized as slightly better than the others.
One was the new top car king, Tommy Diesel. When he won the championship in Hong Kong four years ago, he had defeated Ferdinand, the car king of The Rising Sun City, and Felix, the diamond car king of Africa.
The other was the eternal car king of New York, Schroeder. So far, he had never tasted defeat, but he had not fought with Diesel, so it was hard to say who was stronger and who was weaker.
The last person was somewhat similar to Chen Guang, who had been wearing a V-shaped special agent mask these days. He was also a player who always hid behind a mask.
Six years ago, he won the championship in Los Angeles with an unstoppable momentum and participated in three consecutive car protection battles in the same year. Not only did he suppress several talented newcomers who emerged this year, but he also defeated the rainforest car king, Speed, the Japanese car king, Ryoichi Takahashi, and another ice car king.
It was not a simple defeat, but a big gap.
Unlike Chen Guang's V-shaped special agent mask, the man was wearing a very typical Chinese dragon mask, so some people speculated that he was Chinese, but it could not be confirmed.
So far, only Diesel had come, and it was said that Schroeder was on the way. The last dragon-patterned car king's whereabouts were unknown.
Diesel discussed with the crowd and quickly came up with a decision.
There were currently four places in the first round of the car protection battle. In addition to Ryoichi Takahashi and Watan Junyao, it was confirmed that Ferdinand and Frant would participate for the time being.
Diesel, Spade, and Felix were prepared to participate in the second round of battle, which might or might not happen.
If this matte GTR couldn't even pass the first round, then it would be impossible for him to defeat Diesel. Hence, with Diesel's identity, it was reasonable for him to stay until the second round.
As for the others, their method of deciding the order was simple as well. They just had to draw cards to see who had the most cards.
The winner would go first, and the loser would wait for the second round.
After all, it was rare for them to move, and seeing that everyone had arrived in such an orderly manner, it was very likely that there wouldn't be a second round after the first round. Naturally, they didn't want to come here for nothing.
If Chen Guang, who was rushing back, knew that these car kings were actually worried about not having a second round, he would probably just chuckle and say that they were too naive.
Lu Fei got into the car and drove to the parking lot of the finish line. Chen Guang returned to the finish line from the other end.
As usual, Chen Guang sat in the off-road vehicle, while Lu Fei chose a car and collected money not far away.
In other people's eyes, this was an exceptionally noble and life-like car race, but for Chen Guang, it was only the prize money and the car that was locked in the garage.
When Chen Guang and Lu Fei had met just now, they had decided that since there weren't any particularly valuable high-end cars in the last four places, they might as well lock up the brand new Renault Alpine that Renault had sent to show off.
The reason was very simple. This car hadn't been released yet, and if it was on the market, it would have a serious negative impact on the company's upcoming promotion and release of their new car.
In addition to the loss of reputation, many innovative technologies that they didn't want to be exposed in advance would also be leaked.
Renault definitely wouldn't be willing.
That was exactly what Chen Guang wanted to take advantage of.
Since they had sent their car to participate in this race, no matter what company or how rich they were, they had to abide by the rules of the race.
Therefore, they would first lock up their new car.
Next, they would have to wait for them to come knocking on their door and redeem the car with money that was far higher than its actual value.
"No! You can't lock this car! "
In the crowd, a tall, blond Frenchman shouted angrily, waving his hands as if trying to raise his momentum.
Another blond, blue-eyed driver in a racing suit stood behind this man with an awkward expression, his eyes flashing.
He felt a little embarrassed. He was the best driver in France, and he had just won the world rally championship in the first half of the year. He had been invited by Renault to participate in the underground racing, and he had originally planned to win in one fell swoop. He didn't expect the rules of the underground racing to be so cruel, the competition to be so fierce, and the opponents to be so strong that it was beyond comprehension.
He won the first three rounds very easily, but he didn't expect to lose in the last round, and in such a tragic way. He didn't even get into the top four, so much so that his car had to be locked up.
For a conceited racer, this was simply trampling on his self-confidence and self-esteem. He had no face left.
But this was still not the most embarrassing thing for him. Before coming here, he knew the cruel rules of the car race. He himself didn't care about it. He felt that since he had chosen to participate in the race, of course, he had to accept the rules, or else he shouldn't have come.
Even if it was just to protect his reputation, he shouldn't try to act shamelessly after losing.
But the manager of Renault didn't think so. He felt that this new car contained too much of the company's new technology, so he was determined not to let the car be locked up.
This manager was a senior executive of a dignified multinational company, so he decided to act shamelessly in front of everyone.
Luffy only held his hand and watched coldly as the Frenchman jumped up and down, not saying a word.
No one could act shamelessly in a car race, whether you were a British prince or the prince of an Arab sheikh. It was all the same.
There was no need for Luffy to say any more nonsense, the organizer of the car race would naturally deal with this matter.
"Mr. Basile, I'm sorry, we can't satisfy your request. Since the winner has already designated your car, then you must hand over the key. This is the rule of our car race. If you want to violate our rules, then not only will you be going against my Hong Kong car race, but even Count Lafontaine, who presides over the Paris car race, will become your company's enemy. You have to understand the seriousness of this matter. "
A middle-aged Chinese man stood in front of the angry Frenchman and spoke calmly.
This man was able to organize a race of such a scale, and was also able to subdue the rebellious underground drivers. Needless to say, his status was extraordinary, and his bearing was even more extraordinary.
