Chapter 1263: Chapter 1031: Uninvited Guests_2

"Nova’s performance over the past two years has been quite commendable. In fact, I plan to have her focus on diplomatic affairs in the future so she can develop in that area,"

Wang Ye, who currently chairs the Foreign Affairs Committee, thus found it quite straightforward to secure a position for someone within the diplomatic institutions.

If Nova were truly interested in diplomatic work, Wang Ye could first have her gain experience at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for two years, then transition to working at the Foreign Affairs Committee!

After "gilding" at the Foreign Affairs Committee for a few years and then moving outward, her level would definitely be higher...

That could also be considered a "shortcut"!

It was essentially a career path that Wang Ye had paved for Nova, made possible only by his presence; otherwise, such opportunities were generally beyond the imaginations of ordinary people.

Upon hearing this, Angelina quickly nodded in agreement. She too thought it was a good plan as diplomatic work was both prestigious and promising in terms of career prospects, and very suitable for Nova.

Unfortunately, Nova herself did not see it that way.

She hesitantly said, "But... I’m not very interested in diplomatic work..."

Angelina glared at her, about to scold her, when Natalia interjected with a smile, "Alright, alright, Nova is still young, and there’s no rush. Let’s discuss this after she graduates from her master’s program. If it doesn’t work out, she can always come work in Kiev. It’s somewhat boring here by myself, and Nova would be good company. The opportunities for development here are not less than in Moscow, and since it’s all amongst our own people, whatever job is arranged won’t cause any controversy."

This was another way out.

In Moscow, although Wang Ye held a high and powerful position, he didn’t quite have absolute control...

Therefore, whatever he did, he had to consider the impact and take into account the views of other factions.

But in Kiev, those concerns were absent. It wasn’t exactly acting recklessly, but it was close...

The trio in power in Kiev were all Wang Ye’s "own people", even practically his remotely-controlled "chess pieces". After their concerted efforts to consolidate power, Kiev had nearly no more "dissonances" left, making the political atmosphere quite harmonious!

If Nova really came over, not only would it be easy to arrange a position for her, but it would also further strengthen Wang Ye’s control over this side, making him believe this idea wasn’t bad...

Nova moved her lips, wanting to say something, but she held back and simply grinned instead.

...

After concluding the discussion about Nova, Wang Ye shifted the topic and began discussing the future developments of Crimea with Angelina.

With Angelina officially assuming the position of Chairman of the Crimea Council, and Meshkov becoming the "Honorary President", Crimea was completely within Wang Ye’s grasp, which was indeed his intended "home base"!

Though the changing circumstances meant that Crimea was no longer the ultimate card for Wang Ye to settle and establish roots, it still remained a very important trump card in his hand!

The location of the place held great strategic importance to both Russia and Ukraine.

Moreover, with the rapid economic development of Crimea, its importance would only become more pronounced, not only bringing Wang Ye massive monetary profits but also potential other benefits...

"Recently, quite a few European and American hotel management groups have been flocking here to scout, evidently believing that Crimea has good tourism prospects in the future, so they want to establish their presence early. Our Investment company’s newly constructed high-rise buildings or imitation palace-style buildings are very popular, not just among those hotel management groups but also some large commercial chains..."

Speaking of these developments, Angelina’s eyes sparkled, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

Honestly, seeing one’s hometown prosper under one’s own "management" to the extent of exceeding one’s dreams was indeed quite intoxicating...

Natalia, however, was not interested in these aspects. She scoffed and said, "What good does it do to let that capital in? The foundational investments in Crimea have already been completed, and it’s almost time to reap the benefits. Are they rushing over here now hoping to pluck the fruits? In my opinion, all the business here in Crimea should be directly monopolized by us. After all, Misha still has the Xiao Ying Group under him, not only with a gambling center but also hotels, shopping, tourism, etc. Let’s keep the benefits within our own fields; we might as well handover all these business aspects to Xiao Ying Group."

To Natalia’s remark, Angelina did not object. She quite agreed, for both Crimea Investment Company and Xiao Ying Group were Wang Ye’s enterprises, and naturally, it was best to consider "our own brothers" first when it came to good opportunities.

Wang Ye pondered for a moment, but eventually rejected the rather attractive proposal.

He said with a smile, "Let’s not do that. It’s not very appropriate because our ultimate goal is to turn Crimea into the Pearl of Eastern Europe!

It is to be a worldwide Free Trade Port, a place of freedom, openness, vitality, and business opportunities!

Thus, we must be inclusive and welcoming, allowing global capital to participate, so that this place can truly prosper.

Money is inexhaustible, and our own strength is always limited.

Relaying solely on Xiao Ying Group to develop the business in Crimea would be too slow and inefficient, definitely unable to keep up with Crimea’s development pace, thus becoming a burden and a weak point, which is not good.

Now, we should look at problems from a long-term perspective and think bigger, not be confined to a small immediate benefit..."

Angelina listened intently to Wang Ye’s lengthy exposition, nodding frequently.

Natalia was different, though; she rolled her eyes secretly, but when she saw Wang Ye’s gaze turn toward her, she immediately sat up straight, making a serious face.

After Wang Ye finished speaking, she hurriedly said, "Oh, I don’t understand these things, and you know Misha, I’ve always been involved in the judiciary, I know nothing about the economy or foreign affairs. Whatever you think is best, we’ll do it that way, after all, this... home, you are the head of the household after all, we will just follow your lead..."

Her words somewhat exposed her relationship with Wang Ye, but fortunately, Nova was engrossed in dealing with the steak on her plate and did not pay attention to what Natalia had said.

Wang Ye smiled helplessly. Natalia was just like that, straightforward, clear in love and hate, and never concealed it.

However, that wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, since her personality was quite suitable for her job in the judiciary.

After dinner, everyone returned to their bedrooms to wash up and prepare to rest.

The residence was large enough, with many rooms, so Angelina, Natalia, and Nova each had their own bedroom.

Of course, Wang Ye didn’t need a separate bedroom.

He slept in Angelina’s room...

......

Before leaving Simferopol, Wang Ye paid another visit to Meshkov.

The two had a closed-door meeting all morning, then had lunch together, with Meshkov’s face beaming with a brilliant smile, suggesting he had had a good chat with Wang Ye...

Upon returning to Moscow on a private jet, there was an unexpected visitor for Wang Ye.

According to the visitor himself, he was the head of the Samsung Group Russian branch, a South Korean, named Park Chang Sung.

"Chairman Mikhail, our group’s vice chairman, Mr. Li Zairong, will soon be coming to Moscow, and he hopes to meet and discuss with you. I wonder if you have time available," Park Chang Sung said, bowing deeply.

Wang Ye frowned slightly—had Li Zairong not yet officially taken over as Samsung’s president?

Wang Ye had, of course, heard of the Samsung chaebol, and Li Zairong’s name had also frequently appeared in major financial news in his past life, so it would be false to say he was unfamiliar.

However, Wang Ye was not quite sure when exactly he had taken control of Samsung.

But what was this guy doing coming to Moscow to see him, considering they had never had any interaction before...
