Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1379 - 1089: The Advantage is Significant_2

Chapter 1379: Chapter 1089: The Advantage is Significant_2

Over the years, the entire Moscow State has undergone earth-shattering changes, witnessed by everyone.

Believe me, once I win the General Election, I will make every part of the nation as prosperous and beautiful as Moscow State..."

During the interview, Rossiyana was radiant and eloquent.

It was clear that many of the so-called political achievements she touted should actually be credited to Wang Ye.

However, since Wang Ye isn’t running in the General Election, the achievements made by her husband might as well be considered her own, so she naturally took all the credit...

Anyway, Wang Ye wouldn’t object.

In fact, Wang Ye also saw this interview of Rossiyana and he wasn’t displeased, but just shook his head with a smile, reflecting on how much Rossiyana had grown since becoming the Governor.

Politicians are supposed to be like this; regardless of whether the achievements are theirs or not, as long as there’s a connection, they should unabashedly claim it and let the entire nation know!

Moreover, her bold claim about making remote areas as affluent and beautiful as Moscow was clearly impossible.

Moscow’s status today is not only due to Wang Ye’s tremendous efforts but also because the city itself had a solid foundation!

Long ago, it was an International Metropolis, and all Wang Ye did was help restore its former glory...

But Rossiyana was not wrong in saying so on television because she had to say it!

Especially before the General Election, when everyone is aggressively promoting themselves and competing for the Support rate.

If you remain modest and can’t even utter flattering words, how can you possibly attract the votes of the citizens.

Regardless of whether it can be achieved or not, first make the "big talk," and you’ll have the opportunity to act on it if you win the election. If you don’t win, you won’t even have the opportunity to "not achieve" it!

Watching TV with Wang Ye, Nalan Ya Qi felt a bit sour seeing the radiant Rossiyana on the screen.

However, she also understood that she was not in a position to compete.

Though she is also considered a "Princess," compared to Rossiyana – the Grand Duchess of Romanov – it was rather a joke...

Rossiyana’s ancestors were genuine royalty!

Plus, she was the direct heir who inherited the Family Title!

On the other hand, although called a descendant of Nalan Mingzhu, whether that was true or not, even Nalan Ya Qi herself didn’t know...

Not comparing the background but comparing personal capabilities and status, Nalan Ya Qi couldn’t hold a candle to Rossiyana.

Even though she is also prominent and is addressed as "CEO Nalan" by others, her so-called business achievements were basically granted by Wang Ye and had little to do with her own capabilities...

Rossiyana, on the other hand, is the Governor of Moscow, has established her own Faction, and is even participating in the General Election.

Maybe in a year, her status could surpass Wang Ye’s!

How could she possibly compete with that...

...

Nevertheless, seeing Rossiyana stealing the limelight, Nalan Ya Qi still felt uncomfortable.

She then turned and asked Wang Ye:

"Misha, are you really letting your wife run in the General Election?

Aren’t you afraid, if she actually wins, that her position will be higher than yours, and she will dominate you at home?"

Wang Ye laughed heartily and casually said: "It’s alright if she surpasses me, don’t you often do the same?"

Nalan Ya Qi clearly understood and retorted irritably:

"You... I’m discussing serious matters, stop joking.

I noticed that Moscow has been lively lately, with well-known squares and parks having speakers all day, all major Factions campaigning for voter support.

Also, there are posters of the candidates all over the major streets.

I’ve noticed that your wife’s posters are the most!

Even on TV shows, it’s her appearances that outnumber those of the other two combined.

That must have cost a good amount of money!"

She wasn’t wrong—General Elections are indeed a money-burning game.

For this General Election, Rossiyana has already prepared one billion US dollars in funds, all of which came from the Romanov family, donated to Rossiyana’s Campaign Office through several companies.

Constantin even declared that this money is just initial funding, freely spendable, and additional funds will be provided once it is exhausted!

No way around it, the Rossiyana family’s financial strength is formidable.

Comparatively speaking, aside from Wang Ye and Khodorkovsky, even A Bu might not be as wealthy as their family...

According to what Wang Ye knows, neither Medvedev nor Grezlov are as extravagant.

It’s estimated that even combined, their Election funds wouldn’t surpass that of Rossiyana alone!

However, this doesn’t guarantee Rossiyana’s victory, because Medvedev and Grezlov possess political resources that money can’t buy.

Thus, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, and it’s still hard to predict who will emerge victorious!

Rossiyana is splurging money on publicity everywhere, while Medvedev and Grezlov haven’t been idle either, appearing frequently in high-profile events, and their appearances in the news have surpassed both the Kremlin and Wang Ye...

Medvedev, in particular, uses the advantage of his position, inspecting places all over the country and becoming the "main character" on many state TV stations.

Although it’s only March, and the General Election is still some time away, it’s clear to the discerning eye that the "battlefield" of the election has already seen the smoke of gunfire!

As for the other candidates, honestly speaking, they are far behind, completely overshadowed by these three, with no chance to make an appearance.

In public, Wang Ye keeps silent about the election, to avoid any suspicion.

But in private, chatting casually with Nalan Yaqi, he has fewer reservations.

So he said with a light laugh, "Don’t worry, this is just the beginning; the interesting part is still yet to come. Watch, this year’s election will be more lively than ever before!"

Nalan Yaqi’s eyes twinkled with curiosity as she asked, "Then can you predict who will win?"

Wang Ye smiled and countered, "What do you think?"

This question somewhat stumped Nalan Yaqi; she usually didn’t follow politics much, but she knew these three Big Shots.

Frowning in contemplation, with a confident tone, Nalan Yaqi said, "I think it will be Grezlov!"

"Why?" Wang Ye asked.

Without hesitation, Nalan Yaqi replied,

"It’s simple, Medvedev and Rossiyana are too young, they seem unreliable.

If I were voting, I definitely wouldn’t feel comfortable entrusting such an important position to them.

Whereas Grezlov, with his age and experience, and having held high offices for many years, he’s very experienced.

Oh, it seems he has always had a good reputation, never involved in any scandals.

Choosing such a person seems reliable!"

It must be said, her analysis might really reflect the thoughts of many ordinary citizens.

This is also fundamentally why Grezlov dared to step forward, even risking offending the biggest Faction within his political circle, to participate in this General Election.

Because he feels he has a major advantage!

After all, a General Election ultimately relies on the votes of the masses!

Even if Medvedev is supported by the Kremlin and Rossiyana by powerful Oligarchs, the esteem he has built up over many years is something they lack!

Hearing Nalan Yaqi’s analysis, Wang Ye also nodded in agreement, affirming,

"I didn’t see it coming, but your analysis is very compelling.

Indeed, Grezlov has a significant advantage in this respect, and his partner Rilinov is similar, both are quite capable."

Nalan Yaqi excitedly said, "So does that mean I guessed right? You think Grezlov will ultimately win?"

Wang Ye shook his head,

"I didn’t say that, I only said your analysis was reasonable.

But, you need to know, election results often don’t follow reason..."
