Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

After hearing Wang Ye's question, Ruan Xiaozhu's expression was a little unnatural.

She smoothed her hair covertly, even though her hair wasn't long either...

After hesitating for a moment, Ruan Xiaozhu said with a somewhat sad expression:

"actually……

I had a boyfriend before when I was in high school. "

Wang Ye was a little surprised. He really hadn't thought of this. He couldn't help but become curious and asked, "What next?"

Ruan Xiaozhu said with a helpless smile: "We were all stupid at that time, and we just had a slight affection for each other. Then he was admitted to a good university in the college entrance examination, and I failed and went to study abroad.

At that time, no one had mobile phones, and they didn’t even leave any contact information. What else could we do? The relationship was naturally broken off.

Later, the Internet became a little more developed, and everyone played alumni records and QQ. Although we contacted him again, I heard that he already had a new girlfriend in college. "

Wang Ye nodded and said: "That's true, but just because of this, you have psychological shadow?"

This seems a bit unreasonable. After all, I and Ruan Xiaozhu went to the same high school. The school management was very strict. Even if there were a few people who fell in love secretly, they basically just wrote love letters in private and wanted to go out to eat together. Don’t even think about having a meal or watching a movie!

Because there was only one day off per month, and this day was for you to go home to get living expenses and a change of clothes. Parents also knew the holiday time, so there was basically no private time in the three years of high school.

Under such circumstances, how can we develop any feelings...

Therefore, it is impossible for Ruan Xiaozhu to be unwilling to find a boyfriend because of any emotional trauma suffered by that boy. This is a bit unreasonable.

Ruan Xiaozhu smiled guiltily and said: "That's not that serious. I've been busy with studies and work these past few years, so I didn't think about personal relationship issues. Besides, I'm only in my twenties, so I'm still young. Why should I be in a hurry to fall in love and get married? I plan to wait until I am in my thirties and my career and everything are stable before I consider personal issues."

Seeing her say this, Wang Ye couldn't say anything more.

In fact, he only got married in his early thirties in his previous life. He was a standard late-marriage person. The situation in this life was different, so he got married early...

Comparing Ruan Xiaozhu with himself, Wang Ye felt that he should reflect on it...

…………

"By the way, do you still remember Zhang Guangming?" Ruan Xiaozhu changed the subject.

Wang Ye nodded, he was quite impressed by Zhang Guangming.

Back then, this guy was a gambler, and he almost lost his life after losing money at the Kitty Eagle Gambling Center. Fortunately, he met himself and gave him a chance to start a new life.

Zhang Guangming did not let himself down. He paid back the money he owed him as soon as possible after doing business honestly and making money.

It was this move that Wang Ye admired, and later gave him an opportunity to work at the New Sun Group, where he was mainly responsible for the Lyublino market.

Because there are several layers between him and Wang Ye, Wang Ye is not very clear about his recent performance. Now when he heard Ruan Xiaozhu mention it, he asked curiously: "What's wrong with Zhang Guangming? He seemed to be present during the meeting just now. By the way, what is his position now?"

Ruan Xiaozhu smiled and said: "He is now the person in charge of Liublino, so he is also eligible to participate in today's meeting. I plan to promote him again and make him the vice president of the group, specifically responsible for the office business. What do you think?"

Wang Ye was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhang Guangming was quite capable. Ruan Xiaozhu wanted to promote him as soon as he took office as president. It seemed that he also admired Zhang Guangming's work ability.

He nodded and said: "You can make the decision yourself. Except for particularly important matters, I will basically not interfere in the group's affairs. You can just discuss it with the vice presidents.

By the way, isn't the group going to expand this year? If you need financial support, just let me know.

Can……

Got a loan from my uncle's bank. "

Originally, Wang Ye wanted to say, "All of the group's profits this year can be retained for expansion, and no dividends will be paid at the end of the year." But when the words came to his lips, he felt a little inappropriate, so he changed it to a loan.

Because Wang Ye doesn't care about the money the group distributes as dividends at the end of the year, it doesn't matter whether he has it or not.

In a short period of time, he no longer has any projects that require a large amount of capital investment, and even many of the projects he invested in earlier have begun to make profits and have begun to receive dividends.

But the problem is that he is not the only shareholder of New Sun Group, there are other shareholders.

For example, Mr. Kong, Ruan Xiaozhu, and executives who enjoy equity incentives are all eagerly counting on the money they will receive as dividends at the end of the year.

What would everyone think if they were just given equity incentives, but no dividends were paid in the first year?

…………

Wang Yegang had only had a few days of leisure, and something came to his door again.

This time it was the adoptive father who called Wang Ye himself to ask him to go to his office. He was entrusted with an important matter to handle.

Wang Ye was still a little surprised, because there were not many things that could make his adoptive father call him, and they were usually very important and really big things.

But I haven't heard anything big happening recently. Isn't it that I'm not well-informed enough?

When we arrived at the adoptive father's office, in addition to the adoptive father, there was also Gazev.

"Let Gorbrev introduce the situation to you."

As soon as Wang Ye sat down, his adoptive father spoke without hesitation.

Gebrev introduced Wang Ye seriously:

"There was trouble in Pikalevo. A large number of aluminum smelting plant workers went on strike, which not only caused the factory to shut down, but also affected Petersburg's heating system."

Wang Ye looked confused. He had never heard of Pikalevo.

Moreover, workers are on strike here. What does that have to do with Petersburg?

Gazev must have noticed Wang Ye's confusion, so he further explained: "Pikalevo is a small town located on the outskirts of Petersburg, and there is a fairly large aluminum smelting plant there.

In addition to aluminum smelting, it also supplies hot water and heating to Petersburg, so when the aluminum smelting plant shut down, heating problems occurred in most of Petersburg.

Now is the coldest time. If we don't deal with this matter as soon as possible, there will be big problems! "

Wang Ye suddenly realized this.

Indeed, it is January now, and the temperature is almost minus 30 degrees. If the heating and hot water are cut off, then...

I really don’t dare to think about it!

Of course, some institutions or wealthy areas can use electricity for heating, and their lives will not be greatly affected, but ordinary people will suffer.

In addition, Petersburg is the "place of fortune" and hometown of the adoptive father, and it is also the second largest central city in Russia, so the Kremlin is so eager to solve the problem.

But Wang Ye still has a doubt, that is, why doesn't Ke Gong personally come forward in this matter?

Either you can directly send a representative like a presidential envoy there, or you can let the government coordinate it. Why would you let yourself go?

Strictly speaking, he belongs to the Duma system and is generally not suitable to deal with such issues.

Wang Ye did not hide anything and asked directly: "Can't you just send someone to do this? Is there a bigger secret behind it?"

The adoptive father and Gebrev looked at each other. The adoptive father nodded and asked Gebrev to explain to Wang Ye.

Gebrev coughed, apparently taking the opportunity to think about how to explain this matter.

After pondering for a while, he said: "This matter is indeed not that simple. You should know about Drepaska, right?"

Wang Ye laughed when he heard this, nodded and said: "Of course I know, this is our new richest man! A famous aluminum giant, why is this aluminum smelting plant owned by him?"

This so-called "richest man" was selected by Forbes magazine at the end of last year. Drepaska topped the list with a net worth of US$14 billion, becoming the richest man in Russia!

The second is Abramovich, with $12 billion.

As for Wang Ye, he did not appear on the list...

Because his situation is relatively special, he has a political identity and is relatively sensitive.

Secondly, most of the group companies he controls are not listed, and their ownership structures are complex and hidden. Wang Ye also controls the company's shares through various funds, asset management companies, etc.

Although many people know that he is the major shareholder of these group companies, it is indeed difficult to verify on the surface.

At that time, someone from Forbes contacted Wang Ye's assistant and wanted to verify Wang Ye's total assets in person, but it was obvious that Wang Ye refused directly.

Perhaps many businessmen are proud to be on the Forbes list, which can be regarded as advertising for their company.

But why would Wang Ye care about this? He would rather keep a low profile and not want his wealth to be truly exposed to the general public.

Although his wealth was obtained legally, there is nothing you can do about it. When you are too rich, there will always be people who are jealous of you.

As a result, Forbes magazine did not include his name in the list.

This Drepaska and Wang Ye have met several times, but they are not very familiar with him.

Because Wang Ye's industries are mainly involved in crude oil, natural gas, coal, etc., while Drepaska and Abu are both engaged in aluminum and steel. Of course, they have other businesses, but those are not the main businesses.

The Aluminum Group was quite supportive of the Moscow super CBD center that Wang Ye took the lead last time, saying it would provide $4 billion!

However, Derepaska and Abramovich seem to have a close relationship. After all, the Aluminum Group is jointly held by the two of them. It can be regarded as the relationship between the largest shareholder and the second shareholder.

But then, wouldn’t it be that Abramovich was also involved in the Pikalevo incident this time?

Regarding Wang Ye's question, Gebrev explained this.

"You may not have paid much attention to it. Now Abramovich is no longer involved in the operation and management of Rusal Group. He has even cashed out a lot of his shares. So now the real boss of Rusal Group is Drepaska. He is also the largest shareholder of Rusal Group. shareholders, directly and indirectly control about 57% of Rusal Group’s shares!”

Wang Ye was a bit speechless. It seemed that he had been busy with government affairs in the past two years and didn't pay much attention to the business field. This Derepaska was like a "rising star" who suddenly appeared!

His good friend Abu's Aluminum Group was actually "given up" to him. It seemed that this person was not simple, and there must be something inside that he didn't know.

He asked: "Even if he is the new richest man, what does it matter? Just find out why the workers are on strike and solve the problem directly."

Also, Gebrev talked hesitantly for a long time, but still did not explain clearly why it was not the Kremlin or the government that sent people to solve it, but he had to go there himself!

Gebrev had no choice but to tell the truth. Wang Ye was not an outsider anyway, and he had to be expected to solve the matter this time. If the things behind it were not made clear, what if Wang Ye took action at that time? If it is too "cruel", it will not end well...

"Haha, that's it...

As for Drepaska's wife, she is... the granddaughter of the former Kremlin, do you understand?

Of course, she is not a biological granddaughter, but the daughter of his daughter’s second husband, considered a step-granddaughter..."

This explanation almost made Wang Ye dizzy, but he immediately grasped the key point.

It doesn't matter whether she is a biological granddaughter or a step-granddaughter. What matters is the former Kremlin...

Isn’t that the famous Y Liqin!

No wonder the adoptive father and Gorbrev were so cautious, it turned out that a real big shot was involved...

Moreover, that man was kind to his adoptive father. For his family, Na Kegong must give some face. Therefore, after this incident came out, the adoptive father felt so troubled.

It's not easy for him to come forward to do it, and it's not easy for the government to send people to think about it. On the contrary, Wang Ye is the most suitable!

Because Wang Ye has no relationship or dealings with his predecessor, and there is no entanglement of interests. In addition, Wang Ye's current status is high enough, and he has the ability, power and courage to deal with such major events.

Moreover, even if he came forward to punish Drepaska, there would be no complaints there.

Of course, if Wang Ye really hits too hard, his adoptive father will come forward to smooth things over and help ease the situation.

By doing this, not only will you not offend your "old superior", but you will be selling a favor and killing two birds with one stone...

…………

After figuring out the twists and turns behind this, Wang Ye thought for a moment, then nodded and said under the expectant gazes of the two people:

"No problem, I'll take care of this!"

A smile immediately appeared on the adoptive father's face and he praised: "Sure enough, Misha was responsible at the critical moment, haha..."

Gebrev also quickly agreed: "Of course, so every time I encounter a major issue that is difficult to solve, I always think of Misha immediately. In front of him, there is no difficulty that cannot be solved!"

Wang Ye smiled helplessly. In fact, if he had a choice, he wouldn't want to do such bad things all the time.

But there is no way, many times such things really need to be handled by oneself.

After all, if I don't want to come forward, it will be like putting my adoptive father on the fire...

After all, he and Katsumi are also grasshoppers on the same rope, both prosper and lose!

It was such an accident that I asked for leave yesterday... I promise that I will not ask for leave for the rest of this month, so please don't worry!
