Chapter 1520 Change the world
After Chen Chu finished speaking, Schumacher, who was originally going to join in the fun, and Alonso, the two F1 driver representatives, couldn't help but jump up.
Even Schumacher, who is regarded as a genius of the racing industry and is more beautiful than a century-old racer, couldn't help but breathe a little harder behind the screen at this time!
Unlike other international events, although F1 has been around for a hundred years and has been professional for nearly seventy years, it has not established a Hall of Fame, Hall of Honor, or the like. No one knows what Bernie thinks. Although F1 also has many drivers with the title of "King of Cars", Schumacher is full of honors, but the highest honor of these drivers is the F1 champion who is a career-heavy F1 champion. As for the honor after retirement, there is basically no record of their legends that will shine throughout their lives.
When Bernie Extone saw the meeting room that suddenly became quiet, he could even vaguely hear Schumacher's heavy breathing behind the screen, he felt something was wrong...
Establishing the F1 Hall of Fame may be a huge honor for drivers, F1 Team Club, and F1 Team Management, but for Bernie, he has no experience at all and costs a lot of money. In addition, he has a bad relationship with the FIA. If the FIA does not agree, then the F1 Hall of Fame he established will not be recognized by many people, but unexpectedly, it will become his weakness at this time.
What people pursue is fame and fortune. Although it is a bit vulgar, this is a secular society. Schumacher may not be short of profit. He has long realized his financial freedom by paying tens of millions of dollars a year. However, Schumacher, who is about to retire this year, needs fame. What he wants is not his current reputation, but his reputation after his retirement!
Ten years later, eight years later, the outside world will mention F1 again and comment on who is the greatest driver in F1 history. Those who are of the same era as Schumacher may say it is Schumacher, but those new generations who have never seen Schumacher can only learn about him from some video clips, and the rest will never be left because there is nothing that will let the world know him.
With the F1 Hall of Fame, as long as you are inducted into the Hall of Fame, Schumacher's unprecedented five consecutive championships are displayed, and he is also recorded in countless inhuman speed records. All kinds of famous scenes will be recorded. Whether it is the media or the car fans, he must not be ignored!
"After the joint acquisition group reorganized the board of directors, the board of directors will independently contribute to jointly establish the F1 Hall of Fame Committee with the FIA, and spend no less than 45 million US dollars to build a F1 celebrity hall, which will include statues of selected F1 celebrities lying, champion trophy, career texts and video records!"
"Not only drivers, but those who have contributed to F1, such as Jean Lagardale, the former president of F1 Lotus Team, who created the Ferrari team and made great contributions to Formula racing, will be inducted into the Hall of Fame!"
"F1 drivers, team presidents, and F1 engineers who designed the fastest racing car in the world will all enter the Hall of Fame and will be remembered by car fans all over the world!"
At this time, the attitudes of the F1 team presidents, drivers, and track leaders at the resolution meeting were significantly changed.
Several media reporters who came to witness the voting meeting felt the strongest, and at the same time they also felt that Libra had begun to lean towards the joint acquisition group.
Chen Chu's move was a conspiracy, and it was aimed at Bernie Extone, but he couldn't say anything. Chen Chu said just now that the F1 Hall of Fame was independently funded by the new board of directors, and the Fame Hall was also jointly established by the F1 Board of Directors and the FIA.
This is equivalent to controlling the F1 Hall of Fame qualification and evaluation standards in Chen Chu's hands. Although it cannot be said that whoever enters the Hall of Fame can enter, whoever does not enter will definitely not be able to enter!
Several reporters at the scene just wanted to use the camera lens to hit Bernie's face at the moment. He claimed to be the godfather of F1 and has been promoting how much effort he has put into F1. If he can't even enter the F1 Hall of Fame after retirement, what will he think of him in the future?
I know that it is the F1 Hall of Fame Committee, and there is no need to deal with Bernie, but when the outside world mentions this matter, it will question why Bernie was not selected into the F1 Hall of Fame. Is he doing something wrong? History is a girl dressed in a victor. It cannot be said that she tampers with wantonly, but some things can still be changed.
"In addition to passing the F1 Hall of Fame, the new F1 board of directors in the future will also give some retired drivers specializing in the F1 championship trophy for the season. In addition, the F1 team that won the championship will not only win the F1 championship trophy for that year, F1 will also award all members of its entire team club the F1 championship ring!"
When Chen Chu said this, his eyes seemed to accidentally look in the direction where Schumacher's video footage was, which almost caused Schumacher to shout out directly, supporting the new board of directors.
Like the Champions League and other events, the F1 championship trophy is the same as the Champions League and other events. The team that won the championship only keeps the championship trophy for a year, and then re-issues it to the newly won team the next year. If the championship trophy of the season is retired for life with a driver, then for this driver, this is destined to be a bit higher than being inducted into the F1 Hall of Fame, just like announcing the end of an era!
As for giving the championship ring to the entire F1 club that won the championship, it is just an icing on the cake and also gives all members of the team club a sense of honor.
Since he wanted to give the name, Chen Chu was naturally a big sale. Bernie was too stingy and couldn't bear to spend the million-dollar production fee of the championship ring. But if he could use millions of dollars, he could win over the entire F1 racers and club staff, which would be a huge profit!
In addition to passing the F1 Hall of Fame, the F1 Championship Ring, and the F1 Championship trophy that some drivers retired in the season, Chen Chu also sold a lot of honors and awards like Dabaicai, setting up the F1 Best Driver of the Season, the F1 Best Progressive Driver of the Season, the F1 Best Professional Manager of the Season, the F1 Best Racing Car Designer of the Season, and many other awards were released like they don't have money.
These honors are all false names and seem useless, but sometimes they are essential for a professional event. Professional drivers, club management, and ordinary racing practitioners may prove that their career is not mediocre after retirement, or that gilded trophys and rings represent their life.
"In addition to establishing a Hall of Fame and other honors for F1, in the future, F1 will establish a formal driver transfer system. In addition, F1 will establish a basic salary and insurance system for the entire event, team clubs, and purchase pension insurance for all practitioners of F1. Drivers of F1 leagues will receive minimum standards or above salary!"
This time Chen Chu's words made the F1 team club and drivers become louder. The emergence of F1 driver transfer trading rules, officially representing driver transfers, will become the most important part of F1. Trading drivers and sky-high transfer fees will also become the norm for F1.
The owners of F1 small team clubs looked a little ugly at this time. The emergence of F1 driver transfer transactions may make the small team a driver training base for Ferrari F1, Mercedes F1, Red Bull F1 and other team clubs. The drivers who have finally been trained through hardships were bought directly!
However, the management of the small team club is not that pessimistic. Instead, it seems that it has discovered a way of wealth. If several top drivers can be discovered and trained, the transfer transactions may make a big profit for the team club. After all, the small team is too difficult and there is no sponsorship at all.
Bernie sneered at this time. He believed that in this way, the entire F1 would be completely unbalanced. Ferrari, Mercedes, Red Bull and other teams would dominate the entire F1 championship for many years. It would be difficult for other teams to make it difficult for other teams to make it stand out. However, Chen Chu's words immediately made Bernie completely stunned.
"The new F1 board of directors will readjust the bonus, advertising sponsorship, and dividend reward system. In addition to the three F1 teams ranked in the top three points, F1 will also establish a team club protection system. For team clubs with poor revenue, there will be more subsidies and help. In addition, F1 will also cooperate with Formula 2, Formula Renault, and GP2 events to establish a complete F1 event promotion and relegation system!"
This is amazing. The meaning of establishing an F1 relegation system means self-evident. That is, if the teams in the future perform for many years, they will be relegated and participate in Formula 2, GP2, Formula Renault and other competitions. The vacant team positions will be filled by the champion team of Formula 2 below!
Bernie Extone looked at Chen Chu in a daze. This almost completely subverted the entire F1 race system. The competition he was worried about was not fierce and would not happen at all. On the contrary, it would probably be more intense and the team would be lazy again. If you accidentally relegated and go to Formula 2 league.
This is a complete subversion of the entire F1 event, team club, and drivers. No one can guess how much implementation is. Maybe F1 will be able to get on track for a few years before it can get on track, but maybe it will become a sporting event that countless people around the world are crazyly pursuing, just like the Champions League!
The media reporters who came to participate desperately recorded these things, and they felt that the entire F1 would experience a shock.
Before those team clubs could speak, Chen Chu started to set a third fire, and this time it was the F1 track and site!
"From next year, all F1 sites and tracks will no longer have to implement the 5% annual fee increase clause for the track organizer!"
A stone caused a thousand storm. The organizers of major tracks that were originally pretending to be dead could no longer help it. Derek Grant, president of the British Silverstone Circuit, could not help but use LinkedIn's video conference call system and said, "Chen, are you really sure that the new F1 board of directors is willing to cancel this clause?"
Not only Derek Grant, but other track leaders, also looked at Chen Chu. The trick of Bernie Extone was that he was too smart and too stingy. The agreement he signed for major F1 tracks has a provision that all track organizers pay the F1 company every year, and the fees must increase at 5%!
