Chapter 130: Chapter 130: The New President Takes Office_1

Inside the Little Red Building of New Sun Management, Big Head Kong’s expression kept changing.

Initially, he felt overjoyed when he received the news in the morning that the old market was being sealed off.

He understood that Khodorkovsky must have made up his mind to confront the ACT Group, showing no mercy!

The reason for not doing this before was that Khodorkovsky was still giving face to the boss of ACT Group, adhering to the principle of not interfering with each other’s businesses.

But for whatever happened yesterday, whether it was done by the ACT Group or not, they were saddled with the blame!

Khodorkovsky had every reason to hit them hard!

Since the old market was being sealed off, no matter for how many days, it would seriously shake many bosses’ confidence in the old market.

Because the safety of the old market could not be guaranteed, everyone would definitely hesitate to place all their "bets" there. In this case, the New Sun emerged as a good alternative!

He could foresee that starting from today, the shops in New Sun’s territory would become highly sought after!

But not long after, Big Head Kong received a phone call from the Group Headquarters. The call was made by Ivan, Khodorkovsky’s capable assistant.

Over the phone, Ivan informed Big Head Kong about a decision made by the group, which might not be good news for Big Head Kong...

Because a president was assigned from the group’s headquarters!

His name is Mikhail...

Big Head Kong had never heard of this person. Of course, he was also not very familiar with the boss’s Yukos Group side. Perhaps this person was transferred from the Yukos Group.

Moreover, Big Head Kong was somewhat confused.

Wasn’t it just yesterday that Khodorkovsky invited Wang Ye to work for the New Sun Group before the incident occurred?

At that time, he even promised to let him be the president.

The matter didn’t get further discussed since an incident occurred.

How come Khodorkovsky appointed a Russian named "Mikhail" to be the president today? What about Wang Ye?

Of course, Big Head Kong thought that Mr. Khodorkovsky might have just said it casually yesterday and later forgot about it.

Thinking about when he met Wang Ye yesterday, when Wang Ye told him that they would be colleagues in the future, Big Head Kong found it a bit funny.

Did he really think it would be that easy to become the president of the New Sun Group?!

How naive...

.........

Originally at New Sun, Khodorkovsky personally held the nominal president position.

Big Head Kong held the position of Executive Vice President, responsible for the daily business management of the big market, enjoying great power.

Everyone knew that Khodorkovsky only held the title, and Big Head Kong was indeed the man who held the real power in the market.

But now, after the new president had parachuted in, Big Head Kong had to give up a large part of his power!

Of course, he was not happy about it.

However, in such matters, Big Head Kong dared not say anything. After all, it was Khodorkovsky who funded and established the New Sun Group through numerous connections.

The reason for making Big Head Kong the Executive Vice President was also due to his influence among Chinese businessmen.

In the end, the success of the New Sun Market had to rely on Chinese businessmen...

.........

"President Kong, the new president will arrive soon. Would you like to go down and meet him?"

Inside the office, Big Head Kong’s assistant reported to him.

Although Big Head Kong was not too pleased internally, he was a clever man. He put on a smile, stood up briskly and said, "Of course, I should go down to meet him!"

He and his assistant went straight downstairs, standing at the main entrance waiting for the arrival of the new president.

Soon, two off-road vehicles, one black and one white, zoomed in. Accompanied by the sound of braking, the cars stopped in the parking lot in front of the Little Red Building.

The black one was a Mercedes-Benz G55!

It was identical to the three driven by Khodorkovsky yesterday, except this one was brand new!

The white one was a Land Cruiser, another impressive car.

Big Head Kong was taken aback when he saw the white car because it seemed familiar...

The door of the black Mercedes-Benz "bang bang" opened and closed again, and two people got out of the car. Big Head Kong gasped when he saw who they were, his face full of shock.

Because he knew both!

One was Ivan, Khodorkovsky’s assistant, who had just visited yesterday.

The other was...

That guy called Wang Ye!

Where was Mikhail?

He turned to look at the white car beside him. However, the four big guys who came out of the white car, all holding real guns, looked like security personnel. None of them looked like the new president...

Caught in confusion, Wang Ye and Ivan had already approached.

"President Kong, this is the new president appointed by the group company, Mr. Mikhail." Ivan introduced solemnly.

"Just call me Misha. President Kong, from now on, we will be colleagues. I hope we can work together to promote New Sun Market." Wang Ye said with a full smile.

Only then did Big Head Kong react.

Feeling flustered, he stretched out both hands, tried to squeeze out a smile, and cautiously asked, "Mr. Miha...il?"

Wang Ye nodded, "Yes, I am Mikhail; President Kong, you can call me Misha from now on. Don’t get it wrong, haha..."

There was subtext in his words!

Big Head Kong nodded in a daze.

The three of them went into the president’s office together. It was the largest office in the Little Red Building, originally reserved for Khodorkovsky.

Although he only comes occasionally, as the boss, he naturally deserves the best office.

Now that Wang Ye has taken over as president, the office has been given to him.

However, the conditions here at the market were relatively crude, which naturally could not compare with the luxury of Yukos Building.

Wang Ye didn’t mind that.

In the room, with only Wang Ye, Big Head Kong, and Ivan, Big Head Kong came back to his senses. He hesitated and asked, "What’s going on? Wang...no, Misha, are you Russian? But that’s not right either... when we signed the shop contract..."

As he had encountered Wang Ye a few times before and handled the contract for Wang Ye to purchase his shop, he was quite familiar with him.

Wang Ye shook his head and said meaningfully, "Wang Ye is Wang Ye, and Mikhail is Mikhail! Now that the group has appointed me, Mikhail, as the president of the New Sun Group, and I also own 20% of the shares of the New Sun Group! President Kong is a smart man. You should know what you should say and what you should not say, right?"

Indeed, Big Head Kong was a smart man, otherwise he wouldn’t have gotten where he was today.

When Wang Ye explained this, he nodded like a pecking chicken and hastily said, "I understand, I understand! President Mikhail, rest assured that I will definitely cooperate with you in the future. Just tell me if you have any instructions!"

......

It’s said that a new official must light three fires when taking office. As the new president, Wang Ye, naturally, has his own ideas for the New Sun Market.

So, he immediately convened a meeting with the upper-middle management of the group company.

Firstly, to give everyone a chance to meet the new president.

And secondly, to make some adjustments to the business strategy of the New Sun Market...
