Chapter 280: Chapter 280 Official Debut_1

"Excellent! You performed even better than I expected! It appears that the several months of training have paid off significantly, you can already work independently."

Khodorkovsky praised after listening.

Wang Ye quickly humbled himself, "All thanks to uncle and the elders for your guidance and help, I wouldn’t be able to achieve anything on my own."

Khodorkovsky was quite satisfied with Wang Ye’s attitude.

Because this meant that Wang Ye was not arrogant, he understood who gave him this "stage" and who provided him with the support behind his smooth work.

Indeed, without a group of big shots behind him, Wang Ye would not have been able to achieve this level of success on his own.

Not to mention the official problems, without Gavriil, perhaps any minor police station chief could cause havoc to Wang Ye!

As for Wang Ye purchasing internet companies, hotels and casinos with a large sum of money, it was all provided by Khodorkovsky.

......

After a simple dinner, Khodorkovsky rose and said: "Let’s go, come to my office for a coffee, and then attend the group meeting with me. I will introduce you to the group executives, you will need to engage with them gradually in the future."

Wang Ye nodded, following Khodorkovsky out of the restaurant and into the president’s office on the top floor.

He was slightly excited at this moment.

Because this meeting tonight was his first formal appearance in Yukos Group!

And he was appearing as an executive, not just "Khodorkovsky’s nephew"...

What does this imply?

Obviously, it indicates that Khodorkovsky is starting to let him get involved in the core affairs of the Yukos Group.

You could even say that from today onwards, he is gradually taking over Khodorkovsky’s authority within the Yukos Group!

When they arrived at Khodorkovsky’s office, the two had a chat over coffee for a while, and then the secretary walked in and reported, "Mr. President, the meeting is about to begin, everyone is waiting for you in the main meeting room."

Khodorkovsky nodded, and he and Wang Ye got up and walked out of the office.

......

The headquarters meeting room, is quite large and lavishly decorated.

A dozen or so group executives in suits sat on either side of the gigantic meeting table.

Everyone was having quiet chats as they waited for the president’s arrival.

"Have you heard? The president’s nephew is coming to work in the group, as a special assistant to the president!"

"Hmm, I heard he’s quite impressive. He went to handle the oil field situation a few days ago and resolved it smoothly. He’s very decisive."

"He’s certainly formidable, if he’s so admired by Mr. Khodorkovsky, he’s definitely no ordinary person."

"I have a feeling that this young man will take over as the president in the future, we’d better be careful with our attitude towards him later on."...

Obviously, everyone’s focus was on "Mikhail".

While everyone was whispering, the door to the meeting room was pushed open and Khodorkovsky walked in with brisk strides.

Behind him followed a man and a woman.

The woman was Khodorkovsky’s secretary, whom everyone recognized.

And the young man was a new face to most of the people in the meeting room, all eyes simultaneously converging on him.

No need to guess, this should be Khodorkovsky’s nephew, also the special assistant, Mikhail!

As the occasion was rather formal this evening, Wang Ye was very particular about his dress and appearance.

He wore a dark blue pinstriped Zegna fine cashmere suit that was perfectly tailored and suited his figure.

A dark red tie with subtle patterns was tied around his white collar.

His hair, neither long nor short, was neatly combed back, revealing a smooth and full forehead.

With Wang Ye’s features being relatively prominent, a high nose and big eyes, he looked absolutely stunning!

Wang Ye’s skin was very fair, and if not for his black hair, others would definitely not associate him with an Asian at first glance.

But Russia had many Mongolians and black-haired people, so no one thought much of black hair and Asian features.

Khodorkovsky came to the head of the conference table, with Wang Ye standing behind him.

Looking around, Khodorkovsky said with a smile, "Before we start the meeting, let me introduce a new face. Mikhail, come ..."

Wang Ye stepped forward, standing next to Khodorkovsky, smiling at everyone.

Khodorkovsky, with his arm affectionately around Wang Ye’s shoulder, introduced, "This young man is Mikhail, my newly appointed special assistant. The oil field incident that happened a few days ago was personally resolved by Misha. Many of you may not know this, but our successful acquisition of Siberian Oil Company was largely due to Misha’s efforts! So, there’s no doubt about Misha’s work capabilities."

There was a round of applause in the meeting room.

Everyone sitting here was naturally no fool, they all knew privately about the "uncle-nephew relationship" between Mikhail and Khodorkovsky.

And many of them guessed that the future head of the Yukos Group could very well be this Mikhail!

So, for this occasion, they must show respect.

Once the applause subsided, Khodorkovsky used both hands to quiet everyone down.

He went on to say: "Misha’s work nature is somewhat unique because he also needs to manage other companies, so he won’t be working at the headquarters. However, in the future, the group will hand over some of the more important or challenging matters to him. At that time, Misha can represent me in full authority, I hope everyone will cooperate with him then."

With Khodorkovsky’s words, it was clear to everyone that Mikhail was indeed the closest confidant of Khodorkovsky!

He could even represent Khodorkovsky in full authority...

After briefly introducing Wang Ye, Khodorkovsky began introducing the group’s executives to him.

"Misha, this is the group’s Executive VP XXXX, this is the Senior VP in charge of oil business XXXX, this is the person in charge of oil sales business XXXX........"

As Khodorkovsky introduced him, Wang Ye kept nodding politely, greeting the executives.

As for whether these people were "drivers" or "cowards", Wang Ye didn’t bother remembering...

He estimated that he won’t have to deal with these people for a while.

It won’t be too late to get acquainted with them once he officially takes over.

Wang Ye may not care, but the executives present firmly remembered him!

Because everyone understood that this Mikhail, was very clearly the most likely candidate to become the next group president, without a doubt...
