First you see wow 9 for 2! amazing! But then of course your mind dose the math.

2 to play, then to deal with the tag that's another and another 2 a click begin worth roughly 1.5 It's really not all that, it's only a net of 2 not even counting the nonsense they might put infront of HQ.

But wait... CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES!!... Qianju PT it's all so much cooler. Then you've essentially got a Lucky Find that you can optionally use as tag evasion, if you've not got one in hand.

The other obvious synergy is Jesminder Sareen: Girl Behind the Curtain But that takes your ID slot, and she doesn't ride motorbikes (Both refer only to the "first tag")

Jesminder doesn't work tho. You get a tag after the run and she avoids one during the run. —
I have to disagree with you there, Sheildwall... the successful run is declared at step 5.4 of the run. —
The other synergy is with Citadel Sanctuary, and/or, Thunder Art Gallery in this pack which gives you back the click to install a card that you lost with Qianju - or, if you are also running adjusted chronotype, then you get a free install. —
Add tag evasion and stick it into Gabriel Santiago deck for maximum efficiency. Ken might enjoy some of this, too. —
It's also worth noting its not a replacement effect, so you still get the accesses. —

I'm sure folks have figured this out already, but the above analysis doesn't quite add up. The click you spend on this card to run replaces a run you would make otherwise. Even if you remove the tag the hard way, that's the only click you'd want to consider for the income ratio, so it's really a conditional click for 5 credits. You lose the latitude to run any server of Dirty Laundry for a potentially greater payout, especially if you have a better way to deal with the tag.
