Chapter 1407: Chapter 1103: Attack and Denigration_2

Under his direction, his Group companies joined forces to set up an Olympic Special Fund, offering substantial rewards to athletes who can win medals in the Olympics!

Gold medalists will receive a luxury apartment in Moscow, a Land Rover Range Rover, and one million US dollars!

Silver medalists will receive a standard apartment in Moscow, a Jaguar sedan, and five hundred thousand US dollars!

Bronze medalists will receive a Volvo sedan, and five hundred thousand US dollars!

Moreover, these rewards can be received repeatedly; as long as you have the ability, you can grab five or six gold medals in one go, and the rewards obtained will be astonishing!

In the past few years, Russia’s economy was not very good, so even the living conditions of the athletes were quite difficult, but now they finally have the chance to turn around and become Wealthy, so of course they would fight with all their might.

As they say, a generous reward brings out valiant warriors. It’s unknown if it was influenced by these rewards, but in this Olympics, Russia’s athletes really fought fiercely, and joyful news came one after another...

In strong events like synchronized swimming, rhythmic gymnastics, and figure skating, they continually won medals!

On the Medal Table, China firmly held the first place, while Russia and the United States were in a contest for the second place, and in the last moments, they finally overtook their opponent, narrowly winning by the advantage of one gold medal and took the second place on the Medal Table.

The United States could only take third place on the Medal Table, something that hasn’t happened in decades...

The summer of 2008 passed by in such a lively manner.

...

When October arrived, Moscow also began to see heavy snowfall, entering the severe winter season.

The new General Election officially kicked off!

The three most hopeful Election Candidates, Rossiyana, Medvedev, and Grezlov, were all fully engaged in the Election, and the competition began to intensify.

Indeed, just as Wang Ye predicted, at this point, there were no courtesies to speak of, and while Medvedev and Grezlov were embroiled in an "internal struggle," they also each aimed their spears at Rossiyana.

They weren’t fools; of course, they wouldn’t let themselves fight to mutual defeat, allowing Rossiyana to pick up the spoils.

If they were to break off relations, then everyone would be dragged down—no one could escape!

"This is absurd!

A twenty-something candidate, who has joined the workforce for less than five years, has risen to a high position through family connections.

And now, she’s even thinking of moving into the Kremlin!

Do we really feel secure entrusting our country to her management?

Aren’t we afraid that once she’s in power, she’ll act recklessly and ruin the great progress our country has made!

Even though her husband Deputy Speaker Mikhail is very capable, this doesn’t mean her abilities are similarly exceptional, and I strongly urge all voters to be extra cautious before casting your votes!

You must treat every ballot you hold with seriousness and responsibility because your single vote may determine the future of this country..."

This was Chairman Grezlov’s statement during a TV interview, directly commencing his "attack" on Rossiyana.

The angles of the attack were also as Wang Ye analyzed before—"age," "work experience," "nepotism"...

But these things are indeed facts, plainly evident, and Rossiyana couldn’t accuse Grezlov of slandering her.

However, Rossiyana had to respond and counterattack regardless, or else if Grezlov set the "tone," it would significantly affect her Support rate.

Therefore, Rossiyana promptly launched a strong counterattack on the same day, speaking about Grezlov during an NTV interview with a mocking tone.

"Grezlov?

Of course, I know him very well; after all, I have worked in the Duma for a while and had several dealings with him.

What do I think of him?

To be honest, there isn’t much to say; after all, everyone has seen his performance. He has been the Duma Speaker for nearly a decade, but he has done nothing notable and hasn’t achieved anything eye-catching.

The reason why the Duma has played an increasingly significant role these past few years has nothing to do with him!

It’s simply because Mikhail became the Vice Speaker and began to have a say in the Duma, making it progressively better..."

"I may indeed be young and not have worked for long, but I’ve heard a Chinese proverb.

Ambition knows no age; a hundred years is but vain without aspiration!

This saying couldn’t be more fitting to describe Chairman Grezlov and me.

What does the proverb mean?

Oh, just its literal meaning – it means that a person who has ambition and talent doesn’t need to be judged by their age. Just give them a big enough stage, and they’ll put on a dazzling performance.

In this regard, Chairman Mikhail is the best example!

And, if I may say so without humility, perhaps I’ll be the next.

As for living a hundred years without ambition, that is simply the best description of Chairman Grezlov..."

It has to be said, Rossiyana’s rhetoric skills polished during her time as a journalist really found their place. In this kind of TV "shouting match," she certainly had the upper hand.

After this interview was broadcast, it’s said that Grezlov’s household’s dishes were all smashed...

...

Grezlov himself jumped out to attack Rossiyana, and Medvedev was not to be outdone.

However, since he is not very old either, he didn’t feel comfortable attacking Rossiyana over her age, so he chose to target her background instead.

"Rossiyana?

She performed very well as a journalist, and later as an assistant to Deputy Speaker Mikhail, she was fairly competent.

But after becoming the Governor, perhaps without someone hand-holding her through, she is still in an adjustment phase.

And doesn’t everyone find it strange? Sure, Deputy Speaker Mikhail is very capable and powerful, but that doesn’t mean his assistant is equally outstanding.

So it was quite surprising for her to directly become the Moscow Governor.

In my view, as a direct descendant of the Romanov family, the contemporary Grand Duke of Romanov, she’s not quite fit for politics, let alone holding too high a position.

Also, the faction she’s running is far too radical!

It’s completely unsuited for the development of modern society. If she were to take office, our country might be isolated by the international community, facing domestic and foreign troubles.

After all, everyone understands, no one wants to go back to the Tsarist Russia period, haha..."

This guy is quite insidious, directly insinuating that Rossiyana and her Royalist Party want to bring about a ’restoration’!

As he said, indeed nobody wants to go back to the Tsarist Russia period, oh, except for the Royalist Party...

Also, he subtly implied that Rossiyana’s position as the Moscow Governor is "dubious," and that she shouldn’t even think about aiming for the position in the Kremlin—she’s not worthy!

Faced with such provocation, Rossiyana, of course, would not tolerate it.

She didn’t even bother going on TV programs, but directly "counterattacked" on her Facebook.

"Let me think, when I was the special assistant to Deputy Speaker Mikhail, what was someone doing...

Oh, I remember now, it seems he was the general manager of the Russian Gas Industry Group.

Before that?

He was an ordinary office personnel in the Kremlin Office.

Since he graduated from Petersburg University, he got fast-tracked, jumping from an ordinary office worker to the general manager of the Russian Gas Industry Group, and then...

No need for me to say more, with this triple jump ability, if he had competed in the Olympics, our country would surely have one more gold medal!

Furthermore, about my performance as the Governor of Moscow State, I believe every resident of Moscow State sees it clearly.

In the past three years, the entire Moscow State has undergone tremendous changes; countless skyscrapers have risen, and factories are operating in full swing. Employment, tax revenue, public welfare, compared to before I took office, every single figure has achieved a great breakthrough..."

While striking back at Medvedev, Rossiyana of course didn’t forget to flaunt her own achievements, taking the opportunity to pull some votes...
