Bad news from the racing circle...
Due to the impact of severe weather, the sudden large-scale heavy rainfall has caused massive flash floods and landslides in the Kunwu Plateau.
Many competitors were affected; following Sky City, competitors from Echo, New Origin, Northern Realm, and other three teams have gone missing, and many racers were injured as a result.
The resulting chain reaction caused the stock prices of the sponsoring car companies for the three teams to plummet, hitting the limit down for two consecutive days, leaving many stock analysts scratching their heads, wondering — why the hell would losing one race lead so many investors to flee as if their lives depended on it? What's the point?
Do you love racing that much?
It's not that serious!
Oddly enough, the spokespersons for the three teams have remained silent for several days, with no press conferences and no interviews, unsettling everyone with their silence. When each executive entered and exited the company, their expressions were heavy, so grave it made one feel as if they hadn't lost a racer, but a horse.
At the Longyuan Relay Station, reporters have already interviewed the favorite to win this race — Coastal Automobile's racer Ji Jue.
"Ah, what a pity, just a little bit more... just a little bit more, and I could have saved them..."
In front of the camera, the racer, his voice barely audible, spoke about the matter, his eyes unwittingly welling with tears, crying uncontrollably: "When departing from Kunwu, their smiles and warmth were vivid and clear, never thought that this farewell would be a separation between the living and the dead..."
The amount of tears flowing even wasted a pack of tissues from the reporter.
The mutual sympathy and genuine camaraderie among the racers truly moved everyone who heard, causing tears to be shed and hearts to ache.
Especially since the racer himself had just undergone emergency rescue and examination, his injuries were severe, and the bandages on his arm were still stained with fresh blood.
When the reporter asked if he would give up the race due to his injuries, racer Ji Jue firmly refused!
Absolutely not.
He said, what does this little pain in stormy weather count for...
Any wounds will only heighten one's fighting spirit; even if I die, it will be in the race. In any case, I will carry on everyone's wishes, with the spirits and aspirations of all the departed, we will reach the finish line together!
Their sacrifice will never be in vain!
His voice rang out powerfully and passionately, not only causing An Ning next to him to subconsciously use her toes to dig a three-bedroom apartment, but it also reignited the public outcry online.
Thanks to this wave of attention, the soon-to-complete merger of Coastal Industrial also saw its focus rise dramatically.
Meanwhile, Tianya Investment seized the moment, announcing another explosion — Yunzhou Qingtian Industry, which previously decided to exit the military market, will have all its stripped military operations and assets taken over entirely by the newly formed Coastal Industrial after its restructuring. The two parties have already reached a deep strategic partnership.
Amid this intense attention, all kinds of rumors and gossip flared up, even absurd jokes like 'Coastal Industrial plans to opportunistically acquire Echo's military operations' were absurdly believed by some, leaving people wondering what they were thinking. A reorganized company that currently has only a plot of land for a factory, was it really targeting the four major military coalitions in the southern Federation? Crazy!
The consequences of this disaster also led many organizations and institutions to start calling for a ban on dangerous events like the Desert Sea Rally, urging everyone to cherish life and such, which were all rebutted and ignored by the competition committee.
A wave of attention started and ended within just one or two days, soon everyone moved on from this matter, chasing after new entertainment gossip.
As for the true rally enthusiasts... they were already engaged in endless debates across short video comments or forums and chat groups!
After all, given the current situation, multiple powerful racing teams withdrew or encountered accidents, with injuries, issues, and disappearances occurring. Consequently, the once favorites before the race, eight out of ten likely capsized, and now the highest chance of winning is with Coast, barely formed for a few months, with even the racers being part-time factory managers?
It's truly a bit ridiculous.
From 'Sky City is definitely the strongest,' to 'Chong Hui is also well-deserved,' moving to 'Tiger Honor and Echo are acceptable too,' until finally, everyone was left clueless.
Damn, what is Coastal Automobile Factory?
What does the saying 'In times without heroes, mere fools become famous, when the mountain has no tiger, the monkey reigns as king, New Origin is bound to beat Coast, healthy Northern Realm battles intelligence Chong Hui' even mean...
The combat enthusiasts began listing data and reasoning, the die-hard fans started intense competitions, and the betting crowd looked for the nearest rooftop.
Amidst the tumult and noise, after just a day of rest, the race had begun again — boundless yellow sands, thousand-mile trek, across the Gobi and desert in the S3 stage, spanning the entire Longyuan journey!
In this area where the temperature is constantly above sixty degrees Celsius, with some regions possibly exceeding one hundred degrees at noon, amidst scorching heat waves and extreme cold nights, all the competitors will face the toughest challenges since the start.
Yet for some reason, in the broadcast, viewers more or less saw some...
Incomprehensible ease on the faces of the competitors from the seven remaining teams?
Don't ask, if asked, it's 'brave through adversity, laugh at life! The harsher the environment, the more I enjoy it, if it's not harsh, I'm not happy!'
Thank heavens, thanks to the darn mother and father... these bastards finally stopped, finally we can have a proper race.
