I’ve always wanted to be a professional test driver. First of all, I’m a huge fan of cars. When it comes to cars, I’m like an expert. I enjoy the feeling of driving, I mean, I get a lot of excitement out of the interaction with mechanical stuff, and I think I would be really lucky to make money on my hobby. Plus, I heard, the payment is pretty good.
What attracts me the most is that I can drive all kinds of fancy cars right after they come on the market for free. And I would have the chance to travel around the world to test the performance of cars under different conditions, like on the desert, on the icy ground, on mountainous areas and things like that.
Another cool thing I could do is post videos on the Internet about my comments on certain cars. I will share my experience and the performance of cars after I test drive them. Just like the guy I followed on Weibo, you know, the Chinese version of Twitter. He has millions of followers and he has made a fortune by doing this. People think that he’s trustworthy, and would go to him for advice before they buy a car. I think I can do the same.
So that’s the interesting job I wanna do in the future.
