Chapter 1221 - 460: Joy in the Family
The most crucial part is the care and diet for the pregnant woman, which Qin Miao doesn’t understand either, so at this time, excessive concern could indeed cause trouble.
Moreover, since Qimeng is pregnant, even if her parents know about it, Qin Miao, as the son-in-law, definitely has to visit Qimeng’s parents to meet the two elders.
So, in the afternoon, Qin Miao went to Qimeng’s parents’ house.
The elderly couple was naturally very enthusiastic, welcoming Qin Miao’s arrival.
As soon as Qimeng’s mom saw Qin Miao, she started arranging food for him.
Qimeng’s dad, on the other hand, sat with Qin Miao, drinking tea and occasionally chatting about Qin Miao’s affairs on the racetrack and the details of the races.
Qin Miao stayed at Qimeng’s home until after dinner in the evening before returning home.
At this point, Qin Miao had basically handled and settled family matters.
The season wasn’t over yet, and Qin Miao wanted to stay home with Qimeng, but Qin Miao’s profession made it inevitable that he couldn’t settle down at home to accompany his wife.
So, the next day, Qin Miao went out again.
First, he went to Changsha to meet with Boss Zhou, had a meal, and then boarded a plane to Shanghai.
This time coming to Shanghai, Qin Miao mainly came to shoot an advertisement.
F1 drivers generally don’t need acting skills, but drivers like Qin Miao and Hamilton, who often need to appear in front of audiences and in interview footage, have to learn to hide their emotions to some extent.
So Qin Miao has a bit of acting skills, which made the shooting process fairly smooth, completing everything in an afternoon.
Subsequently, Qin Miao hurried to the set of "The Wandering Earth 2" where Guo Fan was.
Before coming, Qin Miao really thought he was just coming to shoot a still, record some promotional material, and at most, finish all work in a day.
However, what Qin Miao didn’t expect was that after he arrived, Guo Fan directly pulled him for a few more shots, then there were promotional posters and recording promotional videos, and finally, with Qin Miao’s consent, a photo was taken. It seemed to be paparazzi-style, but in reality, it was taken by the crew staff in a hidden corner, showing Qin Miao chatting with Wu Jing and Guo Fan.
Qin Miao was there for a cameo, and although Guo Fan used his wits to significantly increase Qin Miao’s scenes, it still couldn’t change this fact.
Guo Fan couldn’t use Qin Miao as the main promotional material for the movie, but Guo Fan didn’t want to give up on the huge traffic Qin Miao was currently attracting in the country.
But what if it’s not "official" promotion?
Just take a paparazzi-style photo and buy a trending topic; wouldn’t it go viral then?
And Qin Miao didn’t mind, right?
However, this photo won’t be released soon.
On one hand, no one knows how long post-production of the film will take.
On the other hand, Qin Miao was still competing last week. Although after the Japan Grand Prix, Qin Miao has a short break, using this break to film might affect his image among fans and his team if the news spreads.
In total, Qin Miao stayed with Guo Fan for a day and a half, busied himself for half a day, and was also slightly pressured by Guo Fan to invest 10 million, claiming it was for a director’s cut or something.
Qin Miao didn’t really understand but indeed didn’t lack this 10 million investment, so he simply gave it.
Qin Miao returned home to accompany his mother and Qimeng for half a day, and only then did he leave the country on Friday, directly flying to the next location of the American Grand Prix, Texas.
After landing, Qin Miao indeed received an email from Keanu Reeves, inquiring when Qin Miao would arrive in the USA and whether he needed any reception.
Without thinking, Qin Miao directly refused.
These days, due to various matters domestically, Qin Miao didn’t have any time to touch the racing simulator.
Moreover, ever since the Japan Grand Prix ended, Qin Miao knew that his Rain Combat Ability began to decline.
As of today, for the period without racing practice, Qin Miao’s Rain Combat Ability had directly declined from 90 to 89.
Qin Miao truly felt heartache, as the attribute points he painstakingly built up were wasted just like that.
So, during this time in the United States, Qin Miao didn’t plan to engage in any commercial activities or social interactions. He had only one goal: to resume daily training and increase the training volume.
However, due to Qin Miao’s unique physique, typical F1 drivers usually spend an entire morning training their fitness, but with the system’s help, Qin Miao doesn’t need much time to maintain his physical fitness in this regard.
Hence, Qin Miao shortened his morning fitness training to two hours, with about fifteen minutes afterward to restore physical function loss.
For instance, entering a sub-zero cold room to cool down and relax the muscles that had been warmed up by intense exercise, by massaging them.
After completing these, Qin Miao used the remaining time in the morning to practice the American track in rainy conditions.
Under normal circumstances, Qin Miao would practice the track for the upcoming race in rainy conditions every day, but knowing that his rain talent had an 80-point limit, Qin Miao generally didn’t focus on rainy practice, usually spending only half an hour a day.
