Chapter 51 Reliable Captain

In two days over the weekend, Yin Jun took care of all his personal matters, mainly buying some furniture and purchasing some personal items. Then, through Keen's introduction, he found a reliable driving school to sign up for. Yin Jun and Lu Qi

Let's sign up together.

Yin Jun was originally planning to go to the second-hand car market to buy a car for transportation, but Keen told Yin Jun that he happened to have a Bentley sedan for sale. Although he had driven it for several years, the car was in good condition and suggested to Yin Jun

Jun will go and have a look. If he is satisfied, he can sell it to him at a cheap price.

Yin Jun likes Roy Keane, the legendary captain of Manchester United, very much. After getting along with him for the past two days, Keane gave him the feeling of being reliable!

Seeing what he said, Yin Jun immediately followed Keen to his home without hesitation, and saw the car Keen mentioned: a Bentley Continental R!

This car made its debut in Geneva in 1991. It was the first Bentley model in the Rolls-Royce era that did not share a body with a Rolls-Royce model. It was also the first two-door hardtop launched after the discontinuation of Rolls-Royce Camargue in 1985.

Car model.

According to Keane, he bought this car not long after joining Manchester United, probably in the winter of 1993. Although it has been almost nine years now, he has always done a good job in maintaining the car.

Since Keane repurchased an Aston Martin DB7 Vantage when Manchester United won the Treble in 1999, he has rarely driven the Bentley.

Keane is not a player who likes to enjoy himself. He basically spends his time on football. Even on vacation, he rarely goes around to play.

Under such circumstances, his car has driven less than 100,000 kilometers so far.

………………

Yin Jun is not a person who pursues enjoyment. After seeing this car, he decided to buy it. Anyway, it is just for transportation, so it is very good.

Keane was also very straightforward. He took a symbolic payment of 10,000 pounds from Yin Jun and sold the luxury car he bought for 150,000 pounds to Yin Jun.

There is a sentence that can be summed up well for Keane: He is as ruthless to his enemies as the autumn wind sweeps away fallen leaves, and he is as warm as spring to his friends. In the eyes of non-Manchester United fans, he is a devil, but in the hearts of Manchester United fans,

His presence is reassuring.

Keane not only makes Manchester United fans feel at ease on the court, he is also very kind to his own people off the court. Of course, if his teammates show no desire to improve, he will also make you bloody.

Last season, when Manchester United was determined to miss four consecutive Premier League titles and then lost to Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League semi-finals, Keane said: "We were addicted to the glory of the Triple Crown in 1999 and enjoyed that kind of success.

The complacency that brought us has caught up with us and taken its toll. Those Rolex watches, garages full of luxury cars, and XX mansions have made us not care about the game, losing the game, and losing the Rolex that won us

, the hunger for luxury cars and mansions. This is where we are, we have become the so-called ‘heroes of the past’.”

What needs to be made clear is that this passage is not what Keane said when he was bursting with adrenaline in the dressing room after the game, but what he wrote in black and white in his autobiography. This was his thoughtful observation and thinking, and then he decided to move towards

A teammate in the locker room and even the coach took offense.

Keane scorned complacency, scorned talent that failed to materialize, scorned giving less than 100% on the training ground. These scorns were real, and they were the reason why he became the player he was.

This spirit was instilled in the team by Ferguson and his insatiable captain, and then created a Manchester United that continued to win.

………………

Keen is indeed reliable. After learning that Yin Jun intended to hire a short-term driver, he helped him get the job done. Even considering that Yin Jun’s agent Lu Qi was a woman, he helped Yin Jun and the others find one.

The driver was also a local Manchester woman in her thirties.

This middle-aged woman is the wife of one of Keane's fan friends in Manchester, named Beatrice. She is also a Manchester United fan. After learning that she was driving for Yin Jun, the team's new aid, the woman even expressed her willingness to drive for a while.

Work for them for free.

Of course, Yin Jun could not agree to such a thing, but signed a three-month driving agreement with the other party for 3,000 pounds.

Yin Junke has learned that it is very difficult to get a driver's license in the UK. Not counting the theoretical test, the passing rate of the road test is only 47%.

Driving in the UK, unlike in China, is far from as simple as "left rudder becomes right rudder, right drive becomes left drive". First of all, there is a stronger awareness of practical combat. New drivers go straight on the road in the first lesson. When Yin Jun learned the news

Finally, he couldn't help but ask his coach. Isn't it dangerous for a novice to just go on the road and still not be able to distinguish between brake and accelerator? The coach replied that what he learned in the real environment is the most practical and the fastest progress.

The second feeling that Yin Jun got from practicing driving in the UK was that he had a strong sense of safety. The coach emphasized to him many times that in the final road test, he should drive for nearly 40 minutes in a normal driving environment, turn, enter and exit roundabouts, start and stop, and reverse.

, side parking, etc. will be tested, and driving habits, consciousness, and level will be exposed during this period of time.

In addition, the examiner does not only look at whether a person can drive, but also looks at how strong his safety awareness is, whether it is safe to drive, and whether he can respond correctly when encountering problems.

In the final road test, candidates can make up to 15 small mistakes, such as adjusting the speed too slowly, driving too close to each other, etc. However, as long as they make one big mistake, such as not looking at the car coming from the right when entering the main road, not checking the blind spot when starting, etc., it can easily lead to

If you make a mistake in the security question, you will fail the exam.

The British road test scoring standards stipulate that as long as it causes other vehicles to stop, turn, or slow down unnecessarily, it is a serious mistake. The roads in Manchester are narrow and there are many roundabouts. When exiting the roundabout, you may accidentally occupy the route of other vehicles, affecting the traffic flow of other vehicles.

Their speed, the coach said, is a big mistake and is the focus of daily practice.

The third feeling is the British awareness of the right of way. From the main road on the auxiliary road, the main road on the small road, and entering and exiting the roundabout, make sure that the party with the right of way has priority. The party with the right of way must pass without hesitation. Coach

Say: "You have the right of way, why should you give up your right? If you hesitate, it will cause confusion to others."

Because I knew how difficult it was to get a driver's license in the UK, and because I had to participate in team training, I could only use my free time to practice driving, which took even longer.

Although Lu Qi can be asked to pick him up after getting his driver's license, as his agent, Lu Qi may leave Manchester at some point to do other things for him. At this time, he will definitely need to drive to pick him up.

.

Yin Jun thinks that three months is a more suitable time, and he should be able to get his driver's license by then.
