Chapter 461: Chapter 461: Head of State Level Treatment_1

On March 2nd, at Moscow Sheremetyevo Airport, a business jet was preparing to take off.

A convoy of Mercedes-Benz vehicles wound their way in, parking beneath the plane’s gangway.

Wang Ye, accompanied by a large entourage including Nova, Kaja, and Anton Xie Liaosha, disembarked from the vehicles and proceeded to board the plane.

This was a plane from A Bu’s airline company, which Wang Ye was simply renting for the day. Today, he was to meet with Mikhail in Crimea and Meshkov to sign a formal investment contract.

It was a pity that Wang Ye’s ordered Gulfstream business jet hadn’t arrived yet - otherwise he would’ve been traveling on his own private aircraft.

In fact, now as the chairman of the United Aviation Group, he could directly order the aircraft manufacturers beneath him to build a private jet. However, everyone knows about Russian planes: while they’re durable and reliable with good technology, they can’t compete with those from companies in Europe and the United States in the field of civil aircraft.

In addition, his plane was already in the manufacturing stage, and if everything went smoothly, it should be delivered around May or June. It would be a breach of trust to cancel the order now...

So Wang Ye still intended to receive the Gulfstream G550 and use it for a while, only then would United Aviation Group custom design a larger private jet for him!

This would ensure enough space for him to bring dozens of people when traveling, and even carry several cars.

After all, although the Gulfstream G550 had a long range and was indeed luxurious and comfortable, it was still a bit small, providing seating for a bit more than a dozen people.

As for the plane they are currently taking, it seemed like some sort of Bombardier. The space was also not large, and their group of more than ten people barely fit.

......

Flying by private jet is much more convenient than flying commercially.

Wang Ye only confirmed his plans to go to Simferopol last night and by this morning, the plane and flight path were already prepared. Moreover, his convoy could drive directly into the airport; procedures such as security checks were significantly simplified and convenient.

Upon boarding the plane, everyone took their seats, and with warm greetings from the flight attendants, they were ready to take off.

For Wang Ye and his team, this was quite normal—they weren’t surprised by the relative opulence of the plane’s decorations. After all, they frequently fly first-class and chartered flights.

When he visited Chukotka at the beginning of the year, A Bu had sent a similar plane to pick up Wang Ye.

However, for Nova, it was like she had entered a whole new world, everything felt very new...

All her life, she had only flown two or three times, all of which were in the economy class of budget airlines.

These flights didn’t offer business or first class, and even if they did, Nova and her family’s financial conditions wouldn’t enable them to afford the fares.

The budget airlines had a limited number of seats due to the small size of the planes, thus they could only accommodate one or two hundred seats.

The space was very cramped, seats tightly packed together, and smoking was allowed on the plane.

Amidst a variety of smells—body odor, cigarette smoke, alcohol—and the roar of the airplane engine, these flights didn’t leave a pleasant impression on Nova...

Compared to that, today’s private jet ride was exponentially better!

Even though the space wasn’t large, the problem was the small number of passengers. With only a dozen or so passengers, the inside of the plane felt incredibly spacious.

Eeach seat was even more large and comfortable than those in the first class of regular airplanes.

Everything within reach was made of soft calf leather and smooth, precious wood. Underfoot lay plush, thick wool carpets!

The air was infused with a "sweet" scent—not due to "freedom and democracy", but rather due to its air filtering and fragrance systems...

In short, everything Nova was experiencing right now was far beyond her imagination.

Before coming to Moscow, she could never have imagined the life of the super-rich to be like this...

Of course, Nova wasn’t naïve, she understood that individuals like Wang Ye—even in Russia—were extremely rare!

As for what the life of someone with more power and wealth than Wang Ye would look like, that was inconceivable to Nova—it was impossible to even fantasize about...

......

After a flight of over two hours, the plane smoothly landed at Simferopol Airport.

Even before they descended from the aircraft, Wang Ye looked through the window to see a long motorcade already waiting for them on the tarmac not far away.

This time the motorcade was different from the one Wang Ye had been received with during his previous visits.

In the past, Wang Ye only came with the title of "wealthy businessman". Even though Meshkov held him in high regard and treated him very warmly, there were protocol boundaries that could not be crossed.

But now, Wang Ye had acquired new titles.

"Russian Duma Members" "Member of the Economic Committee" "Director of the United Aviation Group"!

Just these three titles alone carry extraordinary significance...

If one were to really consider administrative rank, Meshkov wasn’t as senior as Wang Ye!

Don’t be fooled by his title of "President"—the Crimea Peninsula is merely a region, not a true country!

Therefore, in the past when Wang Ye came over, Meshkov would only send his confidante to pick up Wang Ye, while he waited at his private mansion.

But this time, upon receiving the news of Wang Ye’s arrival, Meshkov came out himself to lead the welcoming party!

Not only did Meshkov personally come to pick up Wang Ye, but the Speaker of the Parliament, as well as several high-ranking individuals, also arrived at the airport.

Of course, there were also quite a few local media and TV station reporters!

They even rolled out the red carpet on the ground—it was a reception befitting a head of state...

Although it was slightly over the top, no one said a word. After all, Wang Ye didn’t just possess an official status. More importantly, he had presented a ten-year one hundred billion investment plan!

......

The cabin door of the airplane opened, with Wang Ye being the first to appear.

He waved at the crowd below with a smile, and in response, a round of enthusiastic applause ensued.

Looking at the arrangement made, Wang Ye took it in stride.

It was a pity that it wasn’t the highest standard welcome ceremony—for instance, there wasn’t an honor guard or musical performance...

Of course, he himself wasn’t yet entitled to such a ceremony, but he wondered if there might be an opportunity for such a reception in the future!

Descending the gangway briskly, Meshkov had already come forward to greet him, the two men’s hands enclasping firmly.

Reporters crowded around them and camera flashes popped repeatedly, while video cameras captured everything.

"Welcome, Congressman Mikhail, to Simferopol. On behalf of all the people, we welcome your arrival. This is the Speaker of Parliament..." Meshkov warmly welcomed Wang Ye and introduced the high-ranking individuals present.

Many of the people present were seeing Mikhail in person for the first time.

Although everyone knew he was quite young and had been gaining lots of public attention recently in Russia, seeing him in person was still quite a shock.

That’s because he was just so young!

It was hard to imagine that someone in their twenties could have achieved such heights!
