Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 499 Beauty Reporter

This time the delegation is divided into two parts, one part is government department personnel, and the other part is business representatives, that is, the bosses of major group companies.

Kasyanov personally led the team, and the leaders of the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Energy will naturally not be absent.

As for the major groups, basically all the big companies that can be sold in Russia are present...

It can be seen that the standard of this visit is quite high.

At the meeting, Kasyanov repeatedly emphasized several times that everyone should take advantage of this opportunity to reach a long-term friendly cooperation with China as much as possible.

It's best to sign some big orders, of course, for export, the kind that can make money...

After all, Russia's economy has been really difficult these years, so it relies on selling energy and arms to make some money to subsidize "household".

In 2002, China's economy had begun to develop. Although it was far from the astonishing level 20 years later, it was also noticed by many countries.

Kasyanov led the team to visit this time because he saw clearly the potential of China's development.

…………

After the meeting, there will be a press conference.

This level of visits and exchanges will naturally have accompanying interviews from national TV stations and reporters from major media.

At the press conference, Kasyanov spoke eloquently, promoting the historical origin of Sino-Russian friendship and his vision for future cooperation between the two countries.

Of course, he did not forget to tout a little bit about the achievements of this administration in economic work.

For example, since he became president, the growth rate of the country's GDP has soared in the past two years, how much better the lives of ordinary people are compared with two years ago, etc...

Wang Ye, who was also sitting on the rostrum and was about to be interviewed by reporters, just smiled and said nothing.

When it was Wang Ye's turn to speak, it was obvious that the reporters were very interested in him.

Many reporters in the audience raised their hands in unison. Wang Ye casually clicked on a beautiful reporter in the first row. He didn't even notice which media it belonged to.

"Mr. Mikhail, I heard that you are a Chinese-Russian, so do you have different emotions for that country? Can you balance the national interests? Will there be a problem of benefit transmission?"

This question is somewhat specific.

Wang Ye thought for a while and said with a smile: "Yes, I am indeed Chinese, but this will not have any impact. If you want to cooperate for a long time, you must achieve a win-win situation, instead of hurting the interests of one party to cater to the other party. In addition, all cooperation plans will be reviewed by the board of directors of the group, so your worries, miss, are a bit unfounded."

As a result, the beautiful reporter continued to ask aggressively: "Excuse me, Mr. Mikhail, you are only 19 years old this year, and you have just entered the first year of college. You have already served as a member of the Duma, a member of the Economic Committee, and the chairman of the United Airlines Group. Director of Yukos Group and many other positions. Do you think you are qualified for these positions with your ability?"

This question was deliberately finding fault, and Wang Ye looked at the reporter quite unexpectedly.

A pretty girl, with blond hair, blue eyes, fair skin and delicate skin, wearing a well-fitting light-colored dress. She is only in her 20s.

She seems to be asking for trouble for these two consecutive questions. She doesn't know when she offended this reporter or the media...

But Wang Ye didn't need to give her face, so he waved his hand and said impatiently: "Voters and shareholders will naturally judge whether I am competent. from!"

Before the reporter could open his mouth to refute, Wang Ye said bluntly, "Next!"

After finishing speaking, he casually ordered another reporter, and the beautiful reporter gave Wang Ye a bitter look before sitting down unwillingly...

………………

At noon, Kasyanov specially sent his secretary to invite Wang Ye over to have dinner with him.

In fact, everyone is in the grand banquet hall, but Kasyanov's table is located in the middle of the hall. It is a long oak table that can seat eight people.

To be able to sit here, obviously the identity is not simple.

In addition to Kasyanov, there are a few ministers who will also accompany him on a visit, and the other is Wang Ye and the chairman of Gazprom.

When they followed the secretary to Kasyanov, all the people present turned their heads to look at him in unison.

It was also the first time for them to deal with Wang Ye, and they were also a little curious about Wang Ye.

Standing by the table, Wang Ye nodded to everyone without being humble, and then looked at Kasyanov who sat at the end of the table, who was the first.

"Haha, Mikhail, please sit down. I wanted to chat with you a long time ago, but I have been too busy for a while, so I didn't take the time. This time we are visiting China, we need to find a time to talk alone Let’s talk. I heard that you are very talented in business, and I happen to be good at it, so I can discuss domestic economic issues.”

Kasyanov greeted with a smile.

Then ask Wang Ye to sit on his left hand side.

…………

At the dinner table, everyone didn't talk too much about work.

Kasyanov seemed more interested in Wang Ye's acquisition of Siberia Petroleum Company on behalf of Yukos Group, and asked some detailed questions.

But Wang Ye didn't dare to say more about the things behind that incident.

He dealt with it vaguely.

Fortunately, time was tight, and Kasyanov's secretary kept coming to him with his mobile phone.

It seems that Kasyanov is really busy. After all, he is at the helm of the government, so it is understandable.

Sitting next to Wang Ye is Alexei, the president of Gazprom.

This is also a powerful person, and Gazprom is actually a state-owned company that almost monopolizes the entire Russian natural gas industry.

When Kasyanov was busy on the phone, Alexei reached out and said a few words to Wang Ye.

"Mikhail, I heard that you proposed a super cooperation plan in the board of directors. Do you really think they have such a large demand and enough funds to pay?"

Apparently, what he was talking about was the super big order proposed by Wang Ye on the Yukos board of directors.

In the Yukos Group, Gazprom also holds a certain share and has a seat on the board of directors.

So what happened over there, Alexei soon knew.

Of course, the Yukos Group also owns part of the shares in Gazprom, and the two companies can be regarded as cross-shareholdings...

Wang Ye smiled, and responded in a low voice: "China is also a superpower. Now it is undergoing industrial transformation, which will inevitably require a huge amount of energy. Give it a try, maybe they have this demand."

Alexei nodded thoughtfully, and said after a while: "It seems that I am a little conservative, and I need to adjust my cooperation expectations..."
