Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1002 - 901: Investments Should Yield Returns

Chapter 1002: Chapter 901: Investments Should Yield Returns

Under Wang Ye’s introduction, Yulia, Yanukovych, Angelina, and Natalia became acquainted with each other.

Although Yulia and Yanukovych had long heard of Angelina’s reputation and knew that the so-called Vice Speaker of Crimea had some sort of relationship with Mikhail,

they didn’t have much of a chance to interact with Angelina before, so naturally, they didn’t recognize her.

As for the appearance of Natalia, it surprised them both a bit.

Especially Natalia’s identity, it made them clearly realize Mikhail’s control capabilities in Crimea!

It looks like Mikhail had already started laying out his plans...

"Such a pity!

The last scandal failed to completely crush Yushchenko, nor did it make him pay a sufficient price.

Sometimes, I find it quite ironic that a person who is actually a Strong J Criminal can still participate in elections and has so many people supporting him!

I really can’t comprehend what’s so special about Yushchenko, apart from being fairly handsome and a smooth talker, that he can deceive so many people into supporting him.

This country is hopeless..."

Just after sitting down and exchanging a few pleasantries, Yulia began to complain.

Wang Ye’s meeting with Yulia and Yanukovych specifically included Angelina and Natalia as well.

Because nominally, Crimea is still considered a "special district" or, more accurately, a Free Trade Zone belonging to Ukraine...

Even though Ukraine can no longer interfere with most of Crimea’s internal affairs in practice, including the appointment and removal of officials, parliamentary elections, local laws, finance, and public matters.

But to the outside world, Crimea still belongs to Ukraine, albeit being more "independent".

If Wang Ye can "put" Yanukovych and Yulia in power this time, it would be even better news for Crimea.

That’s why Wang Ye wanted them to meet and communicate in advance.

These are the people who will form his "foundation" in the future!

Especially the trio of Angelina, Natalia, and Yulia, who are absolutely loyal confidants.

As long as these three remain utterly loyal to Wang Ye, they can also keep Yanukovych in check and prevent him from harboring any other ideas.

......

Listening to Yulia’s complaints, Wang Ye just smiled slightly and said gently,

"That kind of thing can certainly cause significant damage to Yushchenko as a political figure, but you can’t expect it to be lethal.

After all, those scandals happened a long time ago and cannot be verified anymore, nor can Yushchenko be legally charged because of them.

By the way, I’ve seen the latest polls, his support rate has already fallen behind you two, so he shouldn’t be much of a threat, right?"

Wang Ye certainly knew what Yushchenko’s scandal was all about since it was arranged by his own people...

This tactic is the best way to deal with political figures like Yushchenko.

It doesn’t cost much, but the effect is surprisingly good!

Probably most of the supporters Yushchenko lost were women.

However, as Wang Ye said, such events can only severely weaken Yushchenko but are not deadly.

Plus, the people behind Yushchenko are unwilling to give up on him, and with their concerted efforts, his support rate still maintains at a fairly decent level and poses a certain threat to Yanukovych and Yulia.

As for who those forces supporting Yushchenko really are, Wang Ye has a rough idea.

Certainly, some overseas forces are the main support, but inside Ukraine, there are oligarchs, both major and minor, who back Yushchenko.

Without their support, Yushchenko could not have made it this far!

......

After pondering for a moment, Yanukovych also spoke up, "If the election proceeds normally, I’m not worried, for I am confident that the alliance between Yulia and me will triumph over Yushchenko. However, I’m afraid they won’t play by the rules and will cause trouble outside of the election process!"

Wang Ye’s brow furrowed as he recalled certain things.

He pressed, "Trouble outside of the election? Like what? Have you heard some kind of news?"

Yanukovych nodded, speaking cautiously,

"I indeed received some information lately that Yushchenko’s election team is mobilizing everywhere, organizing people.

They say it’s to boost Yushchenko’s campaign, planning to hold several large-scale demonstrations!

Of course, if it’s a normal demonstration, that’s fine; we can organize similar events.

But I have a feeling that there’s more to it than meets the eye..."

Yulia added from the side,

"Also, a while ago, didn’t something happen to Yushchenko’s election team? Several members mysteriously died or disappeared, including foreigners.

It’s said that the embassies of the related countries have put pressure on that old fox, demanding the safety of their nationals to be guaranteed.

Now, near Yushchenko’s election headquarters, there are quite a few policemen, and they also hired their own security team, which is said to be composed of foreign elites."

For Angelina and Natalia, this was the first time hearing of these events.

Honestly, they were quite shocked.

They never imagined that behind the facade of a seemingly "free and democratic" election, there lay so many thrilling and intense confrontations!

Of course, being clever, they were also able to discern some unsaid things from the conversation between the three around Wang Ye...
