Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

After communicating with Shao Yigu, Koro Koli, and Medeff, Wang Ye temporarily put the matter aside.

Because he has already done all the work that should be done, and arranged all that should be arranged. As for the result...

Wang Ye felt that there should be no problem.

After all, I asked Medjef to convey his attitude to the Kremlin, that is, he would support Korokoli. Perhaps his foster father would be a little unhappy at first, thinking that his hand was too long.

But when he calms down, he will understand and support his thoughts.

If you really can't understand, that's okay, the big deal is to talk to him face to face...

…………

In the past two days, Wang Ye has started to promote the approval of the WTO accession agreement in the Duma. This is the last hurdle. As long as it can be voted through at the Duma meeting, it will represent Da Mao's official accession to the WTO!

Only when various policies can start to be implemented, can foreign investment enter Russia with confidence.

In the communication with various factions and representatives of various industries in the Duma, Wang Ye did encounter a lot of resistance, especially in those industries that were relatively open to the outside world, which Wang Ye had long been mentally prepared for.

In the face of doubts from industry representatives, Wang Yedong explained with emotion and reason why he agreed to open up these industries for foreign investment, and let everyone understand that although he promised to open up many industries, he did not It does not mean that we will face the competition of foreign businessmen directly, because there are steps and time periods for liberalization, and it is a step-by-step process, not a one-step process.

Therefore, for a long period of time, everyone still has room to improve their own strength, and the government will come up with real policies to help everyone...

As the saying goes, touching the interests is more difficult than touching the soul, Wang Ye finally has a deep understanding.

The WTO accession agreement he led the negotiations did touch the interests of many industries, so even though he has such a large influence in the Duma, it is still quite difficult to advance.

This matter cannot be forced, so I can only be patient and explain and communicate one by one.

Fortunately, among the upper echelons of the Duma, Gryzlov and Zhirinov are very supportive of Wang Ye, and they also personally helped Wang Ye with his work, which also reduced Wang Ye's burden a lot. pressure.

If the two of them don't agree, then Wang Ye will not have the confidence to push this matter forward.

After working for more than half a month, it was considered that most of the council members' work was done, and Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief when he had a relatively high confidence in voting.

…………

"It's really hard to do something, I don't understand it, everyone knows that joining the WTO is a good thing, and it's unstoppable, it's just a matter of time, but there are people who want to do something and want to delay joining the WTO What about the time..."

Wang Ye sighed helplessly. Opposite him were two speakers, Gryzlov and Zhirinov.

This is Wang Ye, in order to thank the two for helping him to do the work of the congressmen, he invited them to dinner and chatted by the way.

Speaking of which, it has been a long time since the three of them sat down to eat and chat in private.

The main reason is that Wang Ye is too busy, not that the relationship between the three of them is at odds. To be honest, the recent period of time should be the time when their relationship is the best and the atmosphere in Dumas is the most harmonious.

After all, Gryzlov has already seen it, and he has made plans to retire after finishing this term. Instead of fighting for power or profit, he will willingly "assistant" Wang Ye as the speaker. Can this relationship be good? No wonder.

As for Zhirinov, let alone, he was regarded as Wang Ye's old leader, and he took good care of Wang Ye before.

Later, he was able to make a comeback after being forced to retire. It was entirely dependent on the energy of Wang Ye’s uncle Khovchenko. Now that Hovchenko is not interested in politics, he left this "political legacy" to Wang Ye, so seriously, Riri The faction led by Nove is the "branch" of the Wangye faction.

Simply put, the two of them were originally a team!

After hearing Wang Ye's complaint, Gryzlov and Zhirinov looked at each other and smiled, both of them could understand Wang Ye's mood.

Perhaps when they were young, when they first entered the political arena, they were as enthusiastic as Wang Ye and wanted to do something.

But after bumping into the wall many times, I learned what it means to endure and what it means to give in, and then my enthusiasm slowly cooled down.

In contrast, Wang Ye is much luckier than the two of them!

Although it was difficult, Wang Ye managed to settle the matter, because he had enough power, influence and prestige, and those councilors wanted to bargain at most, asking for more preferential policies, not really Dare to stop Wang Ye from advancing into the WTO.

In addition, there are these two old fellows helping Wang Ye...

With a cigarette in his mouth, Gryzlov laughed while puffing: "It took less than a month to complete such a big event, I don't know how many people are amazed at your influence And work efficiency, that’s all you’re not satisfied with?”

Zhirinov picked up his glass and drank it down, and added: "Yes, I have worked in the Duma for so many years, but I have never seen such a big thing that can be advanced so quickly, you kid! Just have fun. Seriously, you are in charge of this matter, if it were anyone else, even me or Gryzlov, it would be difficult to get it done after half a year or even a year."

Wang Ye smiled wryly and shook his head, he couldn't complain any more, otherwise he would appear to be a bit hypocritical...

He picked up the vodka bottle, poured a big full glass for each of them, and then poured a little for himself, which could only cover the bottom of the glass. He held up the glass and said boldly, "Don't talk about this troublesome thing." , drink and drink, if you don't get drunk today, you won't return!"

Although he has been "stealing and playing tricks", he only poured a little for himself every time he poured wine, and poured a big glass for Gryzlov and Zhirinov, but Wang Ye still failed to carry it to the end after all, he was still the first A "falling"...

Gryzlov still called Nova and Bakova to come over, and the two girls "carried" Wang Ye back with great difficulty.

…………

On October 20, the Duma held a special meeting to vote on Russia's accession to the WTO.

When the voting results came out, 450 Duma deputies were expected to attend, but 448 actually attended the meeting, and only two were absent for some reason.

There were 448 valid votes, including 402 votes in favor, 28 votes against, and 18 abstentions. Russia's accession to the WTO was officially approved!

After the meeting, when interviewed by a TV reporter, Wang Ye said meaningfully: "Entry into the WTO is only the first step for our economy to take off! For the future of the country, everyone must have confidence, let us wait and see!"

This is not Wang Ye's big talk, it is the fact.

Under his management, Russia's economy has indeed shown a tendency to take off. In addition to the soaring international energy prices in the past few years, Da Mao's oil and natural gas sales have been exhilarating, and he has made a lot of money. .

The domestic population is small, so the per capita GDP has started to soar just by selling energy.

At that time, during the WTO accession negotiations, representatives from the US and the EU strongly demanded that Russia be classified as an "economically developed country", because according to the economic data in 2005, Da Mao was already close to the standard of a developed country.

But this "unreasonable request" was resolutely rejected by Wang Ye. He insisted that Russia is a "developing country" with a relatively low per capita income, which cannot meet the requirements of developed countries.

In the end, the business representatives of Laos, the United States and the European Union made concessions. When Da Mao entered the WTO, he still followed the status of a "developing country"...

…………

The matter of entering the WTO has come to an end, and Wang Ye can breathe a sigh of relief for a while, and he is not so busy.

But then, personnel adjustments of several powerful institutions followed.

The Kremlin spokesperson officially announced that Shao Yigu will be transferred to the post of Minister of Defense and promoted to General!

Evrogen was transferred to the Minister of Internal Affairs.

Koro Koli was transferred to the head of the Security Bureau.

...

A series of personnel transfers caught the attention of the entire Moscow political circle and attracted everyone's attention.

Many people are privately speculating about the purpose of Kremlin's sudden big move at this time.

You know, in another three years, the second term of the Kremlin will end. According to the constitution, no matter how high his approval rating is, he must "abdicate to make way for the virtuous", which means that the next Kremlin master will is a newcomer.

Could it be that, in the past three years, is there going to be any major event in the Kremlin?

In addition, except for Shao Yigu's promotion to the Minister of National Defense, this was expected by everyone. After all, in the past few years, Shao Yigu has held the position of the Chief of the Security Bureau, but has been presiding over the military reform. This is obviously doing for him as the Minister of National Defense. bedding.

But the other few personnel transfers were beyond everyone's expectations.

Like Yevrogen, many people have never heard of this guy before, why did he suddenly appear to take such an important position as the Minister of Internal Affairs?

Like Korokoli, didn't everyone say that this guy is about to lose power? He has been marginalized within the Hilavik Group, so why was he suddenly transferred to a core department of the Security Bureau as the chief officer?

No matter how the people discuss it, or think that this transfer is full of fog, everyone at the top, especially at the core, knows it well.

The result of this personnel adjustment is the result of coordination and communication between the Kremlin, the government, and the Duma. Everyone has made concessions and gained something.

Through this adjustment, it basically shows that the check and balance of power at the top has been formed.

It is no longer the situation where Kremlin can act arbitrarily as before.

The actual influence of the Duma has soared, and the government is slowly being able to say something.

Of course, it may just be because the Duma is led by Wang Ye, and the government is dominated by Medjeev...

In addition, in this personnel adjustment, it is generally believed that the biggest winner is Medjeff!

Because his faction took control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, an important institution, and Medjev had already gained a lot of voice and influence not long after he took the post of prime minister. Even the Kremlin and the Duma To sell him some face.

Being able to achieve this step is enough to see Medjeeff's ability and political potential...

So, after three years, will Medjeve have a chance to work hard in that position in the Kremlin?

Many people suddenly discovered that, judging from the current situation, in the general election three years later, Medjeve suddenly became the most powerful contender, not even one of them!

Of course, this premise is that Mikhail of the Duma does not participate in the general election...

…………

Wang Ye didn't care about outside discussions and guesses, anyway, his goal had been achieved.

Koro Koli was also successfully transferred to the Security Bureau, and he was not marginalized. With his own help this time, Koro Koli has a closer relationship with himself.

Flamir also successfully served as the first deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, coupled with the contacts he has built up in the police system for many years, and the Moscow Police Department that is still in his hands, although he is not the official minister, However, the real influence of the Minister of Internal Affairs, who came by air, may not be as good as that of the first deputy minister, Flamere!

The Ministry of the Interior has Flamere, the Security Service has Korokoli, and the Ministry of Defense has Shoyigu!

Although the latter two cannot be regarded as Wang Ye's subordinates, let alone hard-core confidants, but where the personal relationship is, everyone's interests are the same.

It is equivalent to saying that among the four powerful institutions, Wang Ye has quietly influenced three of them!

At the critical moment, this is his trump card for a comeback...

…………

In November, Moscow has entered the severe cold, the sky is gray, and the snow is falling heavily.

Although the weather conditions were bad, Wang Ye still went to work as usual. His motorcade had already set off at 9 o'clock in the morning. Today, he had a sudden whim and temporarily changed his itinerary. He wanted to go to Moscow's central CBD area for a field trip.

This CBD area is also one of the major projects led by Wang Ye.

Basically, those energy giants in Damao have generously contributed, and each "contracted" one or more skyscrapers.

After completion, it will become one of Moscow's new landmarks and the most beautiful cityscape.

Wang Ye was sitting in the back row of a Land Rover in the middle of the convoy, next to his assistant Nova, holding a folder in his hand, reporting the progress of the CBD construction to Wang Ye.

The convoy roared past on the street, and the entire convoy was composed of black Range Rover, especially the one Wang Ye was riding in, which had been specially modified to withstand ordinary armed attacks.

In fact, Wang Ye has rarely made enemies now. At his level, under normal circumstances, he would not have any endless hatred with others. In the political arena, there are more intrigues. receive.

So his personal safety can still be guaranteed.

In particular, Moscow's police system and the Security Bureau are all on their own, and if there is any trouble with Wang Ye, he will be able to receive the news in advance.

Besides, with his identity, if something went wrong, it would be a shocking event!

No matter who it is, before you want to touch him, you must consider whether you can bear the consequences... (End of this chapter)
