Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 1006 Only One Talker
Wang Ye's guess was right. The promotion of Dongia's father and sister was really done by Valsili.

Because Tonya received a call that night.

On the phone, a woman who claimed to be a staff member of the governor's office enthusiastically left Tonya her private contact information, saying that she could call her anytime in the future if she had any questions.

He also beat around the bush, Chen Zan, Dongnia's father and sister are serious and responsible in their work, with super abilities, and there will be further promotions in the future.

He also said that Tonya is the pride of Irkutsk region, and she will become a big star after going to Moscow in the future, etc...

Anyway, even the innocent Tonya could tell that the sudden promotions of her father and sister today were definitely due to the efforts of Governor Valsili, just as Misha said.

Obviously, the reason why Valsili did these things was not because of himself, but because of the relationship he had with Misha!

Regarding this point, Dong Niya can be considered to understand...

…………

Wang Ye didn't care about the things that happened in Dongia's house, and it didn't matter if Valsili did those things to please himself, and he wouldn't try to be "selfless" and warn Valsili not to use power for personal gain or anything.

This is not a major principled mistake, besides, the governor Valsili was elected by the people after all!

Strictly speaking, neither the Duma nor the Kremlin can interfere with other people's work under normal circumstances!
He only needs to be responsible to the voters of the Irkutsk region, and Moscow can't control that much...

In the past few days, Wang Ye is also busy with the government's budget plan.

As Tonya saw on TV, the first version of the budget plan submitted by the government has been directly sent back by the Economic Committee on the grounds that it does not conform to the current situation of the country, is unrealistic, and the budget is unreasonable.

These are not what Wang Ye said, but the evaluations given by other members at the special pre-trial meeting held by the Economic Committee.

Obviously, none of the members supported this seemingly "outrageous" budget.

To be able to get a position like a member of the Economic Committee is also a "human genius", and everyone has also seen the meaning behind the budget submitted by the government.

This is not just targeting Director Mikhail alone, but also provoking the entire Economic Council!
Because the debts issued every year, how to distribute the money after getting the money, is also discussed and arranged by the Economic Committee as a whole, and Director Mikhail is not alone.

There are many super large projects led by the economic committee, and there will also be designated committee members to take charge of them full-time.

It means that everyone will have a lot of power in their hands...

Now that the government wants to take this economic power away from the economic committee, how can everyone bear it? So in the first pre-trial meeting, the budget was rejected unanimously and sent back directly.

Some committee members even spoke harshly to the news media. If the government does not take the budget proposal "seriously and prudently" and continues to propose new "outrageous" proposals like this one, then wait for the government to shut down!
The reason why we say "government shutdown" is because if the budget plan fails to pass, the wages of government employees will not be released in the coming new year, which means that the entire government agency will be paralyzed, that is, Stopped.

The pull between the government department and the economic committee immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Even Kremlin was alarmed.

Gobrev immediately called Wang Ye.

"Misha, I heard that your economic committee is having a lot of trouble with the government over budget issues. What's the situation now?"

Gobrev must have known the ins and outs of the matter, and he also knew why the economic committee and the government were in such a stalemate, but he deliberately pretended not to know, and it was obvious that he wanted to come forward to mediate the conflict between the two sides.

Because if the stalemate really continues, not only will the government suffer a lot, but even the Kremlin will lose face.

In the final analysis, all government agencies are only for the implementation of the Kremlin's policy intentions, and they belong to the departments under the Kremlin's jurisdiction!

If it is really suspended, then it is not Medjeff who has a headache, it is estimated that the adoptive father will have even more headaches...

…………

Although Wang Ye also understood what Gobrev meant, he didn't make it clear, he just explained the matter in a concise manner.

Finally, he said in a rather stern tone:

"Government treasury is so amateurish!
The reasons they gave for increasing the budget were not sufficient at all. Looking at the whole plan, it only felt that the increase was for the purpose of increasing the budget.

However, after raising the budget, what role it can play has not been reflected at all.

What's even more outrageous is that the budget they submitted this time has doubled compared to this year, but the GDP growth forecast is not even as good as this year.

My assessment is that the spending budget is unusually bold, even whimsical.

But confidence in economic development is extremely conservative!

Such a budget plan is a joke! "

Wang Ye's remarks are not wronging the government departments, because this is what is reflected in the budget plan.

If you increase the budget, but also increase the GDP growth forecast, it can be justified. After all, if you want to develop the economy faster and better, you must increase investment.

But the problem is that in the budget plan submitted by the government this time, only the expenditure budget for next year has been greatly increased, but the forecast for next year's GDP growth rate is very conservative...

Actually it is understandable.

Because anyone knows how to spend money, no matter how much money is, it can be easily spent.

Therefore, it is easy to increase the expenditure budget plan. Doubling the operating expenses of various departments, increasing staff salaries, and increasing welfare benefits are all easy to achieve.

However, if the GDP growth rate wants to increase again on the basis of this year, it is not generally difficult...

Originally, in 2005, that is, the reason why the GDP growth rate was so high this year was mainly due to the soaring international energy prices. Who can say whether this kind of thing is sustainable or not.

What if international energy prices fall next year...

Even if it does not fall, but only maintains the current price fluctuations, where will the GDP growth rate next year come from!

On this kind of matter, the government can't just make false promises and promises indiscriminately.

Because if they set a GDP growth target at will, but fail to meet it next year, or even have a big difference, then they will be held accountable!

Obviously, no one wants to be responsible for this.

That's why the government came up with such a ridiculous budget plan in Wang Ye's eyes...

…………

Gobrev was speechless, and after a long silence, he smiled awkwardly and said:
"Well, why don't you come over for dinner tonight, it just so happens that he also wants to know about the situation.

In addition, Dmitry Medeff will also come over, so you can communicate with him face to face.

It's all Davarish, so what can't be communicated clearly, okay? "

After he said that, Wang Yena definitely couldn't refuse, because even if he didn't give Gebrev face, he still had to give face to his adoptive father.

For this dinner, it is obvious that the adoptive father wants to call him and Medeff over, let them communicate face to face, it is best to make concessions and reach an agreement, and stop making trouble...

In fact, Wang Ye is not the kind of character who is unreasonable and unforgiving. He just wants to let the government understand that when it comes to financial power, who has the final say!
In the political arena, it is not good to be a good old man, then others will think you are weak and bully, and you will make progress!

On key matters, you must show your attitude, and if you can't make concessions, you will never retreat!

Only in this way will others truly respect you, and your attitude will be considered before doing anything in the future.

"Okay, then I'll go there after get off work at night." Wang Ye said bluntly.

…………

It is very convenient for him to eat in the past now, because the Economic Committee originally worked in the Kremlin, not far from the building where his adoptive father worked and lived.

So when it was past five o'clock, Wang Ye strolled to Gobrev's office, and then he took him to see his adoptive father.

It was still the familiar small restaurant, and Medeff had also arrived, drinking tea and chatting with his adoptive father.

Seeing Gobrev and Wang Ye coming in, the adoptive father smiled and nodded in greeting, while Medjev got up quickly and greeted Wang Ye very politely.

Although he is older than Wang Ye, his position is not lower than Wang Ye.

But there is no way, Wang Ye's "qualifications" are there, no matter from which aspect, he must beat Medeff!
In addition, Medeff can sit in the current position, then Wang Ye has also made great efforts, which can be regarded as a kindness to him.

So every time he met Wang Ye, Medeff was very polite, even respectful...

After the four sat down, the service staff began to deliver rich and delicious meals, and everyone chatted while eating.

All the people present were real people of their own, so the adoptive father didn't go around in circles, and went straight to the point:

"The recent budget plan seems to be full of uproar, didn't the two of you communicate in advance?

How could this happen? "

Wang Ye didn't say a word. The main responsibility for this matter lies with Medeff, and he doesn't want to take the blame for him.

Medeff explained the matter with a wry smile. Of course, he mainly emphasized that the reason for proposing such a budget plan was not his original intention, but was put forward by various agencies and departments. "Public opinion" is like this. He There is no way.

That's a pretty good excuse.

After all, both foster father and Wang Ye knew that the government was not monolithic, there were people from various factions, leaders and even parties, and their interests were intertwined.

It hasn't been long since Medjeff took office, so it's normal that he can't control the situation.

And he, the one in charge, can't pour cold water on his subordinates when they are in high spirits, it will offend many people...

…………

After listening, the adoptive father put on a straight face and severely criticized him:

"That's your problem.

Always remember that you are the person in charge of the government, and they are all your subordinates.

How can he be kidnapped by the opinions of his subordinates?

Well now, proposing such an outrageous plan would not only make a joke, but also make Misha very difficult to do.

As long as the plan you submit is a little more reliable, he won't call you back.

Misha, do you think so? "

With that said, the adoptive father turned his head to look at Wang Ye.

Wang Ye smiled and nodded, following his words and said:
"I also support raising the budget ceiling, but don't forget that for the past two consecutive years, I have taken the initiative to ask the government to increase budgetary expenditures, rather than lowering your budget.

However, this increase must be controllable and reasonable.

To match next year's GDP growth rate.

Because in my philosophy, more money means more work!

If I just take money and don't do anything, or even do bad things, then I can't sit idly by. "

Wang Ye also made his attitude clear again. He is not opposed to raising the budget, but the degree must be grasped.

And you must make a promise, what kind of results you can make next year!
It can be regarded as a little pressure on the government, so that they don't just hang around all day and do nothing!
In addition, from the words of the adoptive father and Gobrev, Wang Ye could also hear that, although on the surface they were reprimanding Medjev and defending Wang Ye.

However, that was only on the surface. The real meaning of the words was to let Wang Ye "raise his hand" and try to give the government a more relaxed budget.

This is also understandable.

After all, Medjeff is completely under the control of the Kremlin, representing the will of the Kremlin, so the adoptive father and the others naturally have to favor him a little bit.

Because helping Dmitry is tantamount to helping Ke Gong himself...

Therefore, Wang Ye also made a slight concession and agreed to increase the upper limit, but the range cannot be too large, and a corresponding promise must be made.

…………

The foster father and Gobrev looked at each other, and the foster father nodded slightly.

Gobrev immediately smiled and said: "Haha, I think Misha's words are very reasonable, taking money without doing anything is not enough!
Medjef, now it is your turn to express your opinion. How much will the GDP growth rate next year be?
The report card you handed over this year is very impressive, and next year will never be lower than this year. "

Medeff smiled wryly, he really didn't dare to guarantee that next year will be stronger than this year...

Because the GDP growth rate obtained by selling energy is always unreliable and easily affected by external factors.

In addition, he does not have much say in the energy industry, even if he once served as the president of Gazprom, it is useless, because everyone knows that there is only one real speaker in the domestic energy industry.

That's Mikhail!
Only he can truly affect industries such as crude oil, natural gas, coal, and even aluminum and gold.

Medeff turned his attention to Wang Ye, wanting to ask for his opinion, or to listen to Wang Ye's talk about how the energy industry will be in the next year.

Should the price continue to skyrocket, or should it stabilize, or will there be a risk of falling.

Each of these possibilities will have a great impact on next year's GDP!
