Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

It’s factionalism again!

Wang Ye came to a conclusion on this matter.

Obviously, in recent times, his third faction has been in the limelight, which has aroused the vigilance of the first and second factions.

As for the first faction, it’s easier to say that.

He has a good relationship with Kremlin and Gryzlov. Even if they will guard against him, at least they will not be cruel to him until the relationship does not deteriorate.

But the second faction is different.

Originally, the position of the second faction was very awkward, neither up nor down.

There is a huge mountain like the first faction pressing down on them, and there is a third faction chasing after them.

In next year's election, they may even lose to the third faction led by Wang Ye. The two parties will change positions, and the original second place will become third...

In addition, the relationship between the two parties has never been very good.

Although there was no overt confrontation, they had fought many times secretly!

Like the assassination of Wang Ye and the subsequent dispute over the oil pipeline, there were actually figures from the second faction or some of their big bosses behind them.

It's just that Wang Ye pretended not to know, and only dealt with those characters who were pushed to the surface, without going into details.

However, Wang Ye did not get to the bottom of it, so the relationship between the two parties has not deteriorated to a bad level, at least on the surface it is still polite.

Even Koloff, the leader of the second faction and also the deputy speaker of the Duma, smiled every time he met Wang Ye. Those who didn't know better thought that the relationship between the two of them was so good.

But all this began to intensify as the campaign situation became tense.

Wang Ye's third faction and the new faction established by Kovchenko are both very wealthy, so they took the initiative in the election. Both parties spent huge sums of money, bought out many media prime time slots, and started giving their own factions more than half a year in advance. Build publicity.

This forced other factions to follow suit and advance their propaganda plans.

As competition becomes increasingly fierce, the advantage of having deep pockets becomes apparent. Recently, an organization conducted a poll.

That is to calculate the support rate of various major factions among the people.

The results show that the first faction still has a strong foundation, and the faction’s support rate still ranks first!

However, the support rate has dropped slightly compared to the last election, only 45%.

Most people will not be surprised by this result, because everyone knows that it is no longer a few years ago. There are more and more competitive factions, and the first faction will naturally not be able to gain an overwhelming advantage!

What is really surprising is that the faction led by Wang Ye has a support rate of 20%, ranking second!

You know, in the last Duma election, the support rate of the third faction led by Zhirinov was only 9%!

After Wang Ye took over, the support rate has more than doubled, which is an exaggeration.

Wang Ye's faction rose to second place, so of course the original second faction's ranking slipped, with a support rate of only 16%, ranking third.

You must know that in the last Duma election, the support rate of the second faction was 20%!

The support rate of the new faction led by Kovchenko has reached 6%!

This data may not seem high, but don't forget that this is a newly established faction, and it is not easy to achieve such a support rate.

If this support rate can be maintained in next year's election, then Kovchenko's faction will become the fourth largest faction in the Duma!

The top four factions accounted for a total of 87%, and the remaining small factions accounted for a total of 13%...

Although this is only a preliminary poll and does not represent the real support rate in next year's election, some things can be seen from it.

Still have to sigh, money can make the world go round!

The reason why the Wang Ye faction and the Kovchenko faction were able to achieve higher-than-expected support rates was obviously inseparable from their large investment.

Speaking of which, in fact, the ideas between the various factions are quite different. It is nothing more than who shouts louder slogans, who has more opportunities to appear on TV media, who can expose more voters to his faction's ideas, etc...

Wang Ye and Hovchenko spent a lot of money, but the effect was still very significant!

…………

"It seems that Koloff and the others are anxious. Their support rate has been left behind by us, and they can't catch up with their own efforts alone. So they started to attack our faction to create vicious competition?" Wang Ye figured it out. After the session, he said with a smile.

Rosiana also understood everything. When Wang Ye said this, she immediately understood.

Biting his lips, he frowned and said, "They are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. They don't dare to go to the first faction to cause trouble. Are they going to attack us?"

Wang Ye shook his head and said meaningfully: "It's not that they don't dare to cause trouble for the first faction, it's just that it's not time yet, but their intention to attack us is indeed obvious. Do you really think that our faction is easy to bully? "

"Then what kind of reaction are we going to make? Let the faction members fight back against them in the media?" Rosiana immediately asked, looking a little excited.

Fighting with others is endless fun.

She has been with Wang Ye during this period and has been in the Duma for so long. She always feels that this place is like a backwater. The members are all a bunch of "smiling tigers" without any passion and are very boring.

Well now, the two major factions are about to go to war, it's finally "lively"...

"No, no, in that case we have fallen into their trap! The second faction's campaign funds are not as abundant as ours. I suspect that they are deliberately trying to create a topic by attacking us this time. If we fight back, Doesn't it mean that we are also promoting them, which in turn increases their popularity?" Wang Ye waved his hand and said with a smile.

This kind of "touching porcelain" marketing method is not new.

Especially in the business world, it is frequently used.

When a new brand or product appears, because its popularity is too low, or no one pays attention at all, and there is not enough money for all-round publicity and promotion, what should we do?

It's very simple, go and "touch porcelain" the leading brands and products in the industry!

For example, a newly established mobile phone brand directly compared Apple mobile phones at its new product launch conference.

List the data item by item to “defeat” Apple!

Although there is no need to delve into whether the data listed here is watered down, or how many prerequisites are restricted.

Anyway, on PPT, you can step on your iPhone and rub it under your feet!

What is the result of such publicity?

It’s obvious, that’s why online discussions have soared!

Whether they are loyal fruit fans, spectators, or so-called "trolls" or "anti-fans", everyone has a few words to discuss.

Some people will take the opportunity to ridicule Apple for being an IQ tax, which can’t even compare to a new brand of mobile phone, and the price is so expensive that people who buy Apple are confused...

That fruit fan must refute, otherwise they will be labeled as having a bad brain.

If you come and go, the purpose of the new brand will be achieved!

Black and red are also red. As long as you gain popularity and everyone knows your brand, sales will naturally increase.

Wang Ye now doubts whether the second faction is trying to trick him!

Because everyone can see that the third faction has the strongest upward momentum and is very likely to surpass the second faction in the next Duma.

That itself has become a rival between the two factions.

The risk of going to the No. 1 faction of Pengci is relatively high, so the faction of Pengci Wangye is the best choice!

…………

"Then let's just watch each other smear us without any response?" Rosiana said angrily, a little unwillingly.

Wang Ye is certainly not the kind of person who can be bullied, especially after embarking on his current path. To describe him as "cruel and ruthless" is not an exaggeration at all.

He smiled faintly and said: "Don't worry, let's watch them perform first. By the way, you haven't seen your adoptive father for a while. This is wrong. As a junior, we are not far away, so you have to do it from time to time." I met my adoptive father. No matter how close the relationship is, if we don’t interact with each other for a long time, it will gradually fade away. "

Rosiana was a little unsure and hesitated before asking Wang Yedao: "I don't have anything to do to find him, especially since he is so busy now and can't find any reason..."

It has to be said that since her adoptive father entered the Kremlin, Rosiana has indeed seen less of him.

I can’t tell you what it feels like, but I feel a little alienated, or a little in awe...

Wang Ye laughed and said: "You are his adopted daughter and a junior. Do you need any more reason to go see him and have a meal together? Just give him a call. Even if he is really busy and can't spare time, When the time comes, I can also greet you on the phone."

Rosiana thought so and looked at the time. It was already past four in the afternoon.

He took out his cell phone and stared at the number in the address book for a long time. Then under Wang Ye's encouraging eyes, he dialed the number.

She doesn't have to worry about disturbing her adoptive father's work, because when there is really important work, the adoptive father's phone will be given to the secretary for safekeeping.

The call was quickly answered, and the deep and rich voice of the adoptive father came from inside.

"Rosiana, why did you remember to call your adoptive father? It's so rare! I heard that you have been very busy recently and have become Misha's inseparable butler."

It sounded like Pu Ding was in a good mood and even made a little joke.

Rosiana quickly responded: "I was just busy, doing whatever I could to help Misha. In fact, there is nothing important to do with you, adoptive father. The main thing is that I haven't seen you for a long time, so I just gave you a call to say hello. .”

She didn't even dare to take the initiative to say that she was going to the Kremlin Palace...

"Haha, where are you now?" Pu Ding smiled heartily.

Rosiana rolled her eyes and looked at Wang Ye.

The two people's eyes met, Wang Ye nodded slightly, and Rosiana spoke to the phone knowingly: "I just went to the airport to pick up Misha, and I'm still in the car right now. I mentioned you while chatting with Misha, so I gave you a call to say hello.”

"Oh? Where is Misha? Aren't the Duma people busy with early elections during this period? He, the party leader, actually still has the mind to run around. Well, I haven't seen him for a while. I’ve passed you two, come directly over, and we’ll have dinner and chat together in the evening.”

Wang Ye heard clearly from the side and nodded to indicate Rosiana's consent.

Rosiana would not refuse at first, so she quickly agreed and said she would go with Wang Ye.

Without much chatting, the person on the other end hung up the phone.

Of course, Puding didn't have that much time to chat with Rosiana, and he didn't ask Wang Ye to pick up the phone and say a few words, because Wang Ye and the two of them would be there soon. If something really happened, it wouldn't be too late to chat over dinner together. .

…………

After hanging up the phone, Rosiana asked Wang Yedao a little uneasily: "Would it be bad for us to go over and disturb our adoptive father like this?"

Wang Ye waved his hand nonchalantly, "Actually, do you really think he wants to see you? You don't need to talk when the time comes to eat. He has something to talk to me about!"

Although she didn't understand why Wang Ye was so sure, Rosiana still chose to believe him.

Because she understands very well that whether it is her adoptive father or Wang Ye, they are both the "human essence" among "human essences"!

What the two of them are thinking about all day long is beyond the understanding of ordinary people like me...

In the past, when she was not involved in politics and was just a young reporter, Rosiana looked down on the so-called political elites.

I think these "old guys" are all fat-bellied, greasy-faced, and seem to have poor speaking skills.

The reason why you can reach such a high position is definitely not based on ability!

It is only through luck or hard work that one reaches a high position by luck.

But when she became Wang Ye's assistant and began to understand politics in depth, she realized that many things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

Even when Wang Ye, Gryzlov, and even his adoptive father are in control of the power, many things cannot be done according to their wishes. Instead, they must go through multi-party consultations and even compromises before they can be successfully completed. !

That's why Rosiana began to admire and even worship Wang Ye!

Also, a young man who is about the same age as himself, or even two years younger, can thrive among such a group of old foxes, which is definitely not what he can do.

In addition to luck and background, it depends more on Wang Ye's own ability, skill and emotional intelligence!

…………

Still coming to this place, this is not the first time for Wang Ye and Rosiana.

In the small restaurant in the secret apartment behind the office, Wang Ye, Rosiana, Gebrev and Puding were still sitting together to eat.

"Misha, I heard that you went to China a few days ago?" Gebrev asked casually.

Wang Ye nodded and replied: "Well, it's a matter for Yukos Group. It needs to set up a branch there and build two large refining bases. It will be the world's largest energy demand market in the future. We must enter in advance and occupy it. First-mover advantage. Otherwise, you will miss perhaps the biggest development opportunity!”

In front of the two of them, Wang Ye never concealed his optimism about the future prospects of a certain country.
