Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

While Wang Ye was meeting with employee representatives and Rusal headquarters representatives, Drepaska was still on the passenger plane from Siberia to Petersburg.

He only received the news this morning that Mikhail, deputy speaker of the Duma, had come as a special representative to handle this matter. Only then did Drepaska pay attention to it and came over. However, he had not yet arrived in Pikalevo. After all, he I haven’t bought a private jet yet.

Sitting in the first class cabin, Drepaska discussed the royal business with his deputy.

"This Mikhail is said to have a good way of doing things. How do you think he will handle this aluminum factory incident?"

The assistant adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and thought for a moment before answering confidently:

"Based on his past work style and your background, boss, I estimate that he will ask the Peterborough City Hall to come forward to talk to the aluminum factory employees. This will transfer the conflict.

As for the internal affairs of our group, of course they are left to us to handle. "

Derepaska raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Why do you say that? As far as I know, Mikhail is not as friendly as he appears, and sometimes he is very harsh. Look at what happened to the former governor of Moscow You know it, he sent him directly into the iron cage!"

The assistant explained calmly:

“That’s a different situation.

The former governor of Moscow was the first to deal with Mikhail, and Mikhail was fighting back.

Of course he is ruthless when dealing with his enemies, but he is much more tactful towards his friends or those with whom he can have some connections.

If you really think about it, boss you and he belong to the same faction, and you both have an unusual relationship with the Kremlin.

Even if he doesn't look at your face, it still depends on your wife's and grandfather's face, right?

just in case!

I mean, if he doesn't even give face to his predecessor, the Kremlin, then can the current Kremlin allow him to mess around? "

Drepaska smiled reservedly. Of course he knew these things, but now that he said them through his assistant's mouth, it strengthened his confidence!

He has almost monopolized the domestic aluminum market, completed the accumulation of wealth, and plans to enter the political arena next.

This time, he wanted to use strong means to deal with the matter, let some people know his style of doing things, and also leave a preliminary impression on everyone.

In this way, when I enter the political arena in the future, I will have a lot less trouble...

Because when most people want to provoke themselves, they will first consider their own revenge!

…………

Wang Ye naturally didn't know what Drepaska was thinking on the plane, and he didn't care.

At this moment, he was speaking in front of reporters' cameras in the conference room.

After representatives from both sides stated their demands, it was obvious that it was impossible to solve the problem immediately today.

Because no one was present at Rusal’s side to tell the truth.

Wang Ye did not talk nonsense with them anymore, but directly made the final speech.

Looking at the camera, Wang Ye said seriously: "I won't say any more. Now, on behalf of the Kremlin and the Duma, I promise one thing to the citizens of Petersburg, and that is to completely resolve this matter tomorrow at the latest! Tomorrow, I will hold final talks with representatives of the aluminum plant employees and the chairman of RUSAL Group, and there will be a live TV broadcast, and everyone is welcome to watch it on TV in real time."

His words were so powerful that many people in the conference room were shocked.

Because this is not about big words or harsh words, but an ultimatum!

Everything you say in front of reporters’ cameras must be fulfilled!

If the problem cannot be solved tomorrow, how will others view Wang Ye?

To put it more seriously, it means that the reputation has been ruined!

The mayor of Petersburg was sweating on his nose. Maybe the electric heater in the conference room was turned on a little too high, a little too hot...

…………

At the end of the meeting, the employee representatives, Rusal representatives, reporters and media all dispersed. Only Wang Ye, Assistant Nova, two members of the Economic Committee, the Mayor of Petersburg, and several members of the Petersburg City Hall were left in the meeting room. staff member.

Now we are all on our own, and everyone talks behind closed doors, so naturally they will say what they have to say.

The mayor of Petersburg said with a little worry: "Speaker Mikhail, what you just said...isn't it a bit leaving no room for retreat? Is tomorrow's talk really going to be broadcast live on TV? What if it happens in person? What should we do if we are at a stalemate?”

He was really worried about that.

Because the attitude of Rusal Group headquarters is very firm, he has also been on the phone with Drepaska in the past few days, and it can be heard that Drepaska is definitely not willing to give in.

What will Mikhail do tomorrow?

Wang Ye smiled slightly and said confidently: "It doesn't matter, any conflict can be solved, as long as the right method can be found. I believe that tomorrow's talks will go smoothly. It is not a complicated problem to begin with."

The mayor of Petersburg looked at Wang Ye blankly. He didn't know why Wang Ye was so confident.

Is there really some clever way that I didn't think of?

The main point of contradiction now is...

The wages owed to employees are money!

Thinking of this, an idea flashed in his mind. If it hadn't been in front of Wang Ye, he would have slapped his thigh...

Because he remembered that the Mikhail in front of him was not just the deputy speaker of the Duma!

He is still the famous "God of Wealth"!

It is said... No, this is not a rumor, it is absolutely true. The God of Wealth now holds more than 100 billion US dollars in his hands!

cash!

That industrial fund office has been the hottest topic in the political arena recently.

Although he is far away from the center of Moscow's political arena, he is still the mayor of Petersburg, and his position is not low. Of course, he will also pay attention to the developments in Moscow.

Therefore, Mikhail's statement just now can be explained.

The worst outcome is that the Rusal headquarters refuses to give in and pay the wages owed to the workers. Then Mikhail can find any reason and have the Industrial Fund Office allocate a sum of money to advance the wages of the workers. .

Then the problem will be solved!

…………

That night, Wang Ye did not go back to downtown Petersburg, but stayed directly.

Although the accommodation conditions here are relatively poor and incomparable to Petersburg, Wang Ye doesn't care.

In the evening, an unexpected guest came over, it was Rosiana's grandfather Constantine.

Wang Ye hasn't seen this old man for a while, but it seems that Constantine is still in good health and in good spirits.

Seeing Wang Ye, Constantine's face was full of smiles and he gave Wang Ye a big hug.

"Haha, Misha, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your and Rosiana's careers are developing very well now. I'm very happy for you."

Of course he was happy.

My own granddaughter now holds the important position of governor of Moscow Region!

She has also established her own faction, which is already quite large...

After a few more years of accumulation, Rosiana may even hope to reach the highest position!

If Wang Ye can help, then the two of them will join forces, and in the entire Moscow political arena, there will be almost no opponents!

There is hope for the re-emergence of my family!

…………

After asking Constantine to sit down, Wang Ye asked: "Grandpa, why are you here so late?"

He was already engaged to Rosiana, so naturally he followed Rosiana in calling Constantine "Grandpa".

Constantine smiled heartily and said: "Didn't I hear that you came to Petersburg? I originally thought that you would stay in the city at night, so I didn't come over in advance. But it turned out that you stayed here tonight. I was afraid that you I’ll leave directly after I finish handling the matter tomorrow, so I’ll rush over to meet you and have a casual chat.”

They said it was just a casual chat, but it was obvious that something was going on, but Wang Ye didn't clarify.

Sure enough, after chatting for a while, Constantine changed the topic to the main topic and asked: "I heard that your industry fund office is working on a big project, with an investment of billions or even tens of billions of dollars!"

Wang Ye thought for a while and said blankly: "Ah? Is there any? I didn't pay much attention to it. After all, there are quite a lot of projects in the Industrial Fund Office. Maybe I didn't pay attention to it."

Constantine let out a long sigh, "Hey, are projects worth tens of billions of dollars no longer attractive to you?"

He was really feeling emotional, because maybe what Wang Ye said just now might be true, and he really didn't pay attention to this kind of multi-billion dollar project...

Wang Ye quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's not the case, it's just that I haven't paid much attention to the work in the fund office these days. Maybe they have sent the report, and I haven't bothered to read it yet. Grandpa, just tell me directly, What kind of project is it? What are your ideas? Do we still need to talk about it?"

Constantine stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly:

"It is said that the Industrial Fund Office is taking the lead in building wafer and chip factories. I am more interested in this industry, and there are also channels to acquire equipment and talents.

I wanted to start this project a few years ago, but it required too much money, so I never made up my mind.

Now that the Industrial Fund Office is taking the lead and can solve the funding problem, I want to work with the Industrial Fund Office to do this. "

Wang Ye nodded and said: "This is a good thing, but wafer and chip processing is very troublesome. The investment is slow and the results are slow, and the future income is not guaranteed. Grandpa, have you really thought about it clearly?"

Many people tend to confuse wafers and chips. In fact, they are two different things and belong to different processes.

Simply put, wafers are more basic and refer to the production process of processing semiconductor devices on single-crystal silicon wafers. Each silicon wafer has thousands of the same integrated circuits and other devices.

The chip is a product after wafer processing.

But the two are inseparable. Basically, those who make wafers also do chip foundry.

Because Wang Ye has experience in his previous life, he clearly knows how important this thing will be in the future!

Therefore, he took advantage of the current time window, that is, when global relations are relatively harmonious, and there will be almost no resistance to purchasing wafer production equipment, and he quickly established a wafer factory.

With his strong financial resources, he continues to spend money regardless of the cost. In more than ten years, the world's number one wafer fab will no longer be a factory on a certain island, but his own wafer fab!

At that time, I can sell to whomever I want, and I don’t need to look at the face of the old beauty at all!

Being able to master the most advanced wafer process technology is basically equivalent to "crippling" one of the legs of the United States, while oneself has the initiative...

Wang Ye mentioned in the Kremlin that chips in the future will be strategic resources like crude oil and natural gas!

Therefore, even if the investment is large and no money is made, it must be started!

His main purpose in establishing the Industrial Fund Office is to support the chip industry.

Elena has also been preparing for this goal.

Now that Constantine suddenly expressed interest in this project and wanted to participate, Wang Ye certainly would not refuse.

He also knows Constantine's energy. Since he dares to speak "big words" in front of him, he is probably relatively reliable and can really get the most advanced equipment and talents.

With these two things, plus the financial support from my own side, the chip industry is really not difficult.

So he nodded and said cheerfully: "I support this matter in principle. Then grandpa, you may send someone to talk to the Industrial Fund Office. I will also talk to Elena after I return to Moscow. of this matter.

By the way, will the wafer fab be built here in Petersburg in the future? "

The reason why Wang Ye asked this was because the headquarters of the Constantine family was here in Petersburg.

Constantine shook his head and said: "No, it must be placed in Moscow. First, there are more high-end talents there and the city is larger. It is more suitable for such technology-intensive enterprises to be placed there. Secondly, Moscow is now The governor is Rosiana. If such a big project is not placed in her territory but in Petersburg, she will probably pull my beard when she comes back, haha..."

At this point, Constantine burst out laughing.

Wang Ye also smiled heartily, he understood what Constantine meant.

Although Constantine said it as a joke, he was actually supporting Rosiana's work and building her reputation and qualifications!

Therefore, in order to support his granddaughter’s career development, Constantine is willing to go all out...

…………

After talking about business, the two started chatting.

Konstantin mentioned one thing with a smile, "Misha, I heard that you are going to build a super estate in the center of Moscow, which will be your home for you and Rosiana to get married in the future. Rosiana said you are going to spend forty It’s a bit too extravagant to build this manor!”

Wang Ye shook his head and said: "It's not a luxury. The main reason is that I have taken a fancy to that manor, but if I want to make it more decent, I really have to spend so much money. It just so happens that I have received so many dividends this year, so I might as well just They were all used to build a manor.”

Hearing Wang Ye casually spend 4 billion US dollars to build a manor, Constantine sighed in his heart.

Forbes rankings, established families, and European royal families are all incomparable to Misha!

How much money has this guy made in the past few years?

Through this manor, you can see how wealthy he is...
