Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

 In fact, Wang Ye’s plan is not that simple.

There was something else that he did not say even in front of Zhirinov.

In this election, whether Rosiana can win is actually not important to Wang Ye.

 He has done so much behind the scenes, and his real purpose is just to prevent someone from wanting to play "two-person games"...

Because in that case, the balance in the political arena will be broken in a few years, and the Duma's living space will be severely squeezed. This is unacceptable to Wang Ye.

Hilavik Group cannot be the only one company!

Wang Ye wants to maintain his relatively aloof status, so he must balance the balance of power in the political arena.

For him, after he serves as the speaker of the Duma in the next term, his role in the Kremlin should be as weak as possible, so that he can continue to expand the power of the Duma until it is like the old American Congress.

Rosiana fits this role, and so does Meddev in the past. Either one of them can win.

However, Meddev, who has the full support and recognition of the Kremlin, has united the entire Shilavik Group, and may even become the "stand-in" for the Kremlin, does not meet the requirements of the royal family.

 So, Wang Ye must take action to snipe him.

After discussing the details with Zhirinov, Wang Ye stood up and left. The next thing was up to Zhirinov.

Wang Ye was not worried that Zhirinov would mess up the matter. He also had considerations in choosing Zhirinov to handle this matter.

 First of all, Zhirinov will not betray himself!

Zhirinov was able to return to the Duma and become the powerful deputy speaker only because of the strong financial support of Kovchenko, Wang Ye’s “uncle”!

  Without the support of Kovchenko, Zhirinov alone would definitely not be able to support the entire faction.

And they are about to face the Duma general election. Whether their faction can keep its current seats, or even go further, will still rely on Kovchenko's financial support, and perhaps Wang Ye's "care" in the media channels .

 So, it can be said that Zhirinov's power and status are supported by Hovchenko and Wang Ye, and everyone's interests are tied together.

Secondly, Zhirinov is dissatisfied with the Shilavik Group and wishes to see the other party's strength reduced. Now that he has the opportunity to engage in the Shilavik Group, he will naturally not miss it.

 …

Zhirinov acted quickly.

 He found an opportunity and strolled to Grezlov's office.

It's not unexpected. The two of them often visit each other to chat about work and so on.

Seeing Zhirinov knocking on the door and coming in, Gryzlov, who had a straight face, also smiled, warmly invited Zhirinov to sit down, and personally brought him steaming black tea and cakes.

Zhirinov did not beat around the bush and said straight to the point: "Old man, I have been thinking about a big thing recently. I came here today just to discuss it with you and see if it can be done."

Gryzlov smiled and said: "Big things? What other big things can the two of us do? Now any big things in the Duma must be discussed with Misha first. Without his nod, no one can do anything big. As for external matters If it’s a big deal, then it has nothing to do with the two of us.”

 It can be heard that Grezlov is emotional...

Zhirinov sighed and said with emphasis: "Yes... But because of this, we must cheer up and not sit still! According to my observation, now we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It depends on whether you dare to Give it a try!”

Hearing him speak so seriously, Grezlov also became serious.

He frowned and asked: "Good opportunity? Give it a try? Please explain it clearly, I don't quite understand what you mean."

"Have you not noticed that in this election, the two most competitive people are actually Meddev and Rosiana. If...I mean if, the two of us join forces and bring together our two factions If we declare our participation in the general election, what will happen?”

Zhirinov leaned forward and looked into Gryzlov's eyes and said.

 After hearing these words, Gryzlov really took a breath...

 He and Zhirinov join forces to participate in the general election!

 This is really a path he has never imagined...

Don’t tell me, if they really do this, the competitiveness of the two of them seems to be ridiculously high!

 At least there is no problem in overpowering Meddev and Rosiana.

However, why does this old guy Zhirinov suddenly want to support himself...

Thinking of this, Gryzlov looked at Zhirinov suspiciously and asked: "Why are you suddenly interested in the election? Also, how could you think of asking me to run for the election? Why don't you go and participate yourself?" better?"

Zhirinov smiled cheerfully and responded frankly: "Because I have no chance of winning if I participate by myself! In fact, even if you were to participate in the election alone, do you think your winning rate would be high? So, after careful consideration, I I think that only if we join forces can we have a big enough advantage to make it worth our while!"

Grezlov had to admit that Zhirinov was right.

 Indeed, although he and Zhirinov have better qualifications and prestige than Meddev and Rosiana, the problem is that they both have strong support behind them.

As for myself and Zhirinov, we can’t rely on others and can only rely on ourselves...

 But once two people join forces, the situation is completely different!

I have been in politics for so many years and have always been in high positions, so my background cannot be underestimated.

　　Although Mikhail has been so sharp in the past two years that he has directly covered himself up in the past. Many people think that he is about to retire, so they slowly no longer take himself seriously.

 However, as long as you can show the hope of making a comeback, those who have alienated yourself will soon come back and unite around you!

 Hence, he was able to recruit a group of people from within the Duma and the Shilawik Group who were headed by him and supported him.

Of course, it’s definitely not possible to rely on yourself alone.

 Because his two opponents cannot be underestimated, there are people behind them...

 In this case, Zhirinov’s cooperation is particularly important.

Even though Zhirinov is usually inconspicuous and does not have a strong sense of presence, Gryzlov knows him well.

Not to mention that the faction led by Zhirinov ranks third in the Duma, has a lot of seats, and also has a high support rate among the people.

In addition, don’t forget who was the former leader of Wang Ye’s faction...

This time Wang Ye has stated that he will not participate in the general election, so some members of his faction will choose to support Zhirinov.    That is also quite a force.

 …

Grezlov looked at Zhirinov with bright eyes, his eyes were shining, and his waist straightened up unconsciously.

"You really want to try joining forces with me? And if...I mean if, we win the election together, then..."

Zhirinov simply nodded and said: "Of course! If you win the election, you will go to the Kremlin palace and I will go to the government. You will be the main one and I will be the assistant. Anyway, we are both of this age. If we don't take this opportunity to give it a try, , there will really be no chance in the future. Anyway, even if we lose, we won’t lose anything, so why not just go ahead and do it.”

These words seemed to have reached the heart of Gryzlov, and he was very moved by Zhirinov's willingness to help him.

 Yeah, give it a try, there is still hope.

 If you don’t try, there is no hope at all. You are already like this, so what else do you have to lose?

 The worst outcome is to lose the election.

Then you can retire with all your heart...

He stretched out his hands. Zhirinov understood and stretched out his hands at the same time, clasping his hands tightly together.

Gryzlov said with a loud voice: "Okay, let's give it a try! I will immediately communicate with people in the faction to get as much support as possible, and you will also take action. Then the two of us will Let’s announce together to the outside world and participate in the competition in the general election at the end of the year!”

 …

 After the two people reached an agreement, they immediately took action in a hurry.

Grazlov began to contact privately with the key members of their faction, and even visited many people in private.

When he first said he would run for the election, others thought he was joking. But when Gryzlov said Zhirinov would join forces with him to run, everyone realized he was not joking, but serious. And it really has enough strength to impact the general election!

In the several general elections after the disintegration of the former Soviet Union, there was no precedent for two senior political figures to join forces to participate in the general election. However, such a situation occurred in the last general election in Uzbekistan, and the final result was also well known. Those who joined forces won the final victory!

Now that Grezlov and Zhirinov have joined forces to stand up, there will be great changes in the general election that will begin at the end of that year.

 I don’t know if they really have any hope of winning the election...

 In this case, I can really consider betting on Grezlov.

 After all, everyone knows that providing help in times of need is far more welcome than adding icing on the cake!

When Gryzlov is in urgent need of support, if you give him a certain amount of support, he will naturally keep it in mind and give himself adequate rewards after he wins the election.

If he really wants to remain so-called neutral now, or even support his opponent, then how can he expect any good rewards after he wins the election...

Hence, after some private contacts, Gryzlov really attracted a large group of people who clearly expressed their willingness to support him, and they were all senior faction backbones!

On the other side, Zhirinov was not idle either. He first summoned the people of his own faction and announced that he would join forces with Gryzlov to participate in the general election, hoping to get everyone's full support.

It doesn't matter to the people in their faction. After all, if Zhirinov can go to the government, it will be a step up. After all, everyone knows that in the Duma, Zhirinov is at most the deputy speaker, no. Maybe one step further.

 So everyone expressed their full support for him and Grezlov.

In addition to members of his own faction, Zhirinov also "privately" contacted some senior members of the Wangye faction, who were also his subordinates before.

 While Wang Ye did not encourage, object or express any opinions, some members of the Wang Ye faction were also persuaded by Zhirinov and planned to support the combination of him and Gryzlov.

Of course, these actions they carried out in private could not be hidden from outsiders. The Kremlin soon got the news and was shocked by it.

It was difficult for the adoptive father to come forward directly, so he still sent Gazev to come to Duma to inquire about the news.

The first person that Gebrev visited was not Gryzlov or Zhirinov, but Wang Ye!

 Because he knew very well that Gryzlov and Zhirinov made such a big fuss, not only with the support of Wang Ye, but at least it was possible if Wang Ye did not object.

If Wang Ye doesn't allow it, they won't be able to make any waves at all...

 …

“Misha, let’s stop beating around the bush and tell me the truth what your attitude is.

Because now we can’t understand what you are thinking. Ordinarily, you should support Rosiana. Even Meddev has a good relationship with you. Why are Gryzlov and Zhirino showing up now? What about the husband's combination? "

Gablev sat on the sofa with a bitter look on his face, scratching his head and said.

Wang Ye smiled slightly, spread his hands, and said helplessly:

 “Then what can I do?

Gryzlov and Zhirinov want to give it a try. In fact, they are not too old. They are still in the prime time of their political careers. They have qualifications, experience and prestige. To be honest, as an onlooker, I think they Two more competitive than Meddev and Rosiana!

 Besides, of the two of them, one is my immediate boss and the other is my old boss. How could I dare to stop them? "

Gablev was at a loss for words. What Wang Ye said was reasonable, but he also knew in his heart that things were definitely not that simple!

 So he paused and continued to ask: "Now that the three parties are competing, which side are you going to support? Misha, you understand, your attitude is crucial!"

Wang Ye smiled shyly and said, "You see, Meddev is a good friend of mine. I strongly recommended him when he was the General Secretary. I even said to the Kremlin that he was very suitable to take over the position of the Kremlin.

 But on the other hand, Rosiana is my fiancée, and everyone knows this relationship.

 Also, Grezlov and Zhirinov have both worked with me for several years and have always taken good care of me...

 That’s why I have more headaches than anyone else right now. Supporting any party will offend the other two parties, which is not good.

 So I decided…

 No one supports it!

 Let the three parties compete based on their true strength. Anyway, no matter who wins, I will only congratulate them and will not have any objections. "

Gablev was dumbfounded. Does Wang Ye mean that he wants to stand aside and watch the show?
