Cultivating trainees, aiming for international competitions, and finally expanding influence to create profits.
The risks are high, but the benefits are substantial, so it's worth a try.
After listening to Lin Yan's words, Lin Guoxiong nodded in agreement.
Not many are needed; as long as a few drivers like Ren Fei can be cultivated, the endorsement income alone would be considerable within a year.
Under the vast operations of the Lin Group, Ren Fei brought in billions in profit for the Lin Group annually. As for Lin Yan, it goes without saying; any merchandise or collaboration item he creates can generate a substantial income.
The traffic generated by drivers, while perhaps not comparable to some celebrities, is still quite formidable within their own circles.
Moreover, with dozens of drivers of all levels in a club, the potential profits are imaginable.
If the club were to develop to a global level and attract fans from other countries, the profits would be even more staggering.
As for what comes after that, Lin Guoxiong doesn't think about it for now, as it's too distant and requires the accumulation of many generations.
The reason Lin Guoxiong built the racetrack for Lin Yan was precisely because of his son's influence and the racetrack's high profitability.
Now that there's a new approach, it might be worth trying. The cost of a racetrack is high, and the charging standards are naturally very high; otherwise, why would they say that ordinary people can't afford to race?
According to the charging standards of the Kyoto International Circuit, the total cost for renting a 250cc racing car for a session is around four hundred yuan, with each session lasting thirty minutes. This is definitely a high-profit venture.
With his son's influence, this project is basically a guaranteed profit. However, Lin Guoxiong never expected his son to not plan for large-scale public operation.
"Oh my goodness, Mr. Lin, I truly didn't expect the girl you introduced to have such amazing talent!"
After the father and son chatted for a while, Blanche from outside pushed the door open. Judging by her voice, she was very satisfied with Su Mojin's talent.
"Mr. Lin, is this your daughter-in-law?"
"How about it, Ms. Locke, am I right? Isn't her talent exceptional?"
Seeing Blanche's satisfaction with his daughter-in-law, Lin Guoxiong's face also showed a hint of a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Lin, your daughter-in-law's talent is definitely top-notch among those I've met. With proper cultivation, she will surely achieve great things in the future. It seems my trip has been quite fruitful."
From the smile on the face of this financial master, it was evident that she was very happy. Her trip to China had allowed her to take on a gifted disciple.
However, being called daughter-in-law made Su Mojin a bit shy, and she lowered her head slightly.
"I've decided to stay in China for a while, but Mr. Lin, you'll have to reimburse my food and accommodation."
"Don't worry, Ms. Blanche, I'll arrange for someone to take care of that for you. Little Yan, don't you have a spare villa? You can stay there."
Sitting on the sofa, Blanche said to Lin Guoxiong with a smile. Lin Guoxiong did not refuse and turned to look at his son.
Staying at Lin Yan's manor would be convenient and would also allow her to guide his son, a win-win situation.
Lin Yan understood his "cheap" father's intentions and nodded slightly, saying to Blanche.
"Ms. Blanche, you can follow me later."
Lin Yan's manor not only had beautiful scenery and environment but also high air quality, making it very suitable for elders like Blanche to reside in.
Blanche nodded slightly, looking at Lin Yan with admiration. She had also heard about Mr. Lin's son's achievements and was quite impressed that he could win championships in top-tier competitions at such a young age.
"When the racetrack is completed and ready to open, remember to do a good job with the marketing. It doesn't have to be open on a large scale, but its reputation must be established."
Before they left, Lin Guoxiong reminded his son in his ear. He did not intend to interfere with the racetrack matters, leaving them entirely to Lin Yan and Zhang Qin to handle, as he had other business to attend to.
Lin Yan nodded in agreement.
In the afternoon, Lin Yan brought Blanche back to his manor. Indeed, even before reaching the mountain, Blanche was amazed by the scenery.
The mountain where Lin Yan's manor was located was beautifully manicured, with precious trees and flowers planted, which, coupled with the clear blue sky, was no less impressive than some scenic spots.
Moreover, the racetrack was also completed that morning, complementing each other. The sheer scale of the racetrack was quite awe-inspiring.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Lin Yan vaguely saw relevant departments conducting inspections.
"Young Master Lin, is this entire mountain yours?"
As the car passed through the checkpoint at the foot of the mountain and ascended, Blanche, sitting in the back, said with a hint of surprise.
She had seen many estates abroad, but one of this scale was extremely rare.
"Yes, Ms. Blanche."
Lin Yan replied calmly. Blanche was very pleasantly surprised by this answer, as living here was truly a pleasure. However, she didn't yet know that not only this mountain but also the parking lot at its base belonged to Lin Yan.
After settling Blanche into the villa halfway up the mountain, Blanche was filled with interest. As an environmentalist, she detested heavily polluted air, and the air quality here was perfect for her; she liked it very much.
While Su Mojin was learning from Blanche, Lin Yan took another road from the mountain, passing through a grove of poplar trees used for sound insulation, and arrived at the private access road to the racetrack.
This private access road was specially arranged by Zhang Qin during the construction of the racetrack, directly connecting to the mountain through the sound-insulating forest, exclusively for Lin Yan, making it very convenient for him.
The security at the racetrack was very robust. Because it directly led to the mountain, this private access road was guarded by a team of twenty bodyguards, led by a recently promoted squad leader.
This was the formidable individual who had slapped Wei Shaoting at the Jialin Hotel before. This young man had matured considerably, no longer the impulsive youngster from a few months ago.
A few days prior, Xu Guoqiang, seeing the young man's potential, had promoted him to squad leader. When the racetrack was first established, security personnel had not yet been fully recruited, so most of the security personnel here were currently seconded from other industries of the Lin Group.
The entire racetrack had hundreds of security personnel, and the logistics, maintenance, and medical staff were even more numerous.
Upon entering the racetrack, the first thing that met the eye was the boundless track. Even with Lin Yan's height of 183 cm, it was difficult to see the end at a glance.
This track, which occupied a larger area than the Kyoto International Circuit, was extremely impressive. Even Lin Yan felt a ripple of emotion.
It wasn't because of the size or grandeur of the track, but because it was a track that truly belonged to him.
