Chapter 629: Chapter 629 Domestic Attitude_1
"Congratulations to Mr. Mikhail on his election as Deputy Speaker and Chairman of the Economic Committee. I hope China-Russia relations will continue to prosper under Mr. Mikhail’s leadership."
The ambassador sincerely said.
In the whole embassy, he was the only one who knew about Wang Ye’s real identity.
When he was told about this secret, he was repeatedly emphasized to ensure confidentiality and not to reveal Wang Ye’s identity under any circumstances.
In addition, he must provide all possible assistance when Wang Ye needs help from his home country.
Truth be told, upon hearing about Wang Ye’s rise to success, the ambassador felt like he was hearing a story.
This is too excessive, isn’t it...
At that time, Wang Ye was just a Duma Member, a member of the Economic Committee, making his mark in the political arena.
However, given his young age of not even twenty, it was indeed hard to believe.
As for Wang Ye’s experiences, the ambassador had always been skeptical, he believed that things couldn’t be that simple.
If it was really like what was written in the documents, an ordinary eighteen-year-old student had just come to Moscow to study abroad in early 2001.
And in less than two years, he had become a billionaire and a rising star in politics?
There must be some unknown stories behind it all, otherwise, even if he was extremely lucky, Wang Ye wouldn’t have reached the level he has now.
However, just the other day, the ambassador discovered that Wang Ye had once again undergone a transformation, and had incredibly become the party leader of the Third Faction, Deputy Speaker of Duma, and had also taken the position of Chairman of the Economic Committee.
In other words, he climbed up the ranks dramatically!
If you were talking about Wang Ye a month ago, he was a rising star in politics with considerable influence, but he didn’t possess much substantial power.
But now, Wang Ye has become a politician of the highest level...
No, it would be more accurate to say he is at the apex!
One of the most powerful individuals in Moscow!
......
Wang Ye slightly smiled, calmly saying: "China and Russia are friendly nations, both are major world powers and have a history of close collaboration. I too hope that with our joint efforts, we could achieve mutual benefits and win-win situations."
Given his current status, he can only afford to make such a diplomatic statement.
It would be impossible to be too blunt.
Moreover, the person in front of him is merely an ambassador. In the eyes of ordinary people, he may hold a significant position, but in front of Wang Ye, quite frankly, he doesn’t have the credentials to discuss substantial matters...
A month ago, maybe he did, but now, if there were any important matters that domestic leaders wished to discuss with Wang Ye,
They would have to send someone of sufficient "weight"!
Of course, while that may be true, at critical moments, Wang Ye would of course not hesitate to lend a hand and improve the relationship between the two countries.
However, it should be noted that during this time, the overall attitude towards the West in Russia was a positive one, they were indifferent towards the "East", not to say antagonistic, but also not overly attentive.
After all, the specific country in mind at that time was just considered a major power, far from being a "superpower".
If the two countries were to improve their relationship and even join forces to confront certain forces, then Wang Ye would need to continue working quietly behind the scenes.
Moreover, he would need to elevate his status even higher.
The position of Deputy Speaker is not enough, it doesn’t hold enough weight in crucial national diplomatic affairs!
......
The Ambassador was accustomed to Wang Ye’s diplomatic talking, but he didn’t mind since today was only about making contact and establishing closer relations. There were no substantial matters to discuss.
After Wang Ye ascended to the position of Deputy Speaker and Chairman of the Economic Committee a few days ago, it drew reactions from the domestic front.
However, considering we were in Moscow, it wasn’t suitable for the domestic side to make too noticeable a response, they couldn’t just send a high-ranking official over to congratulate Wang Ye on his promotion.
So they took this opportunity of the New Year celebration and invited Wang Ye over to the embassy to express their congratulations.
Additionally, there was another matter from the home front that they wanted to ask Wang Ye via the Ambassador.
The ambassador sincerely said:
"I heard that you are interested in investing in China and have even registered an asset management company.
I wonder which industry Mr. Mikhail is interested in, and whether you need assistance from the relevant domestic departments?
As you may know, our country is currently undergoing the Reform and Opening Up, welcoming capitals from all over the world.
Needless to say, we would certainly warmly welcome investments from a friendly figure such as you."
The ambassador didn’t need to make his words too explicit. If he mentioned "asset management company", Wang Ye would understand.
It was clear that the reason he could acquire the Prince’s Mansion, with such a good location and such a large compound, was not because Zhang Xiaoxi was lucky,
But because the relevant domestic department knew that Zhang Xiaoxi was acting on my behalf, that I wanted to buy a compound in the capital.
Therefore, that led to the Prince’s Mansion being up for sale...
The asset management company I own, although it went around in a big circle, leaving ordinary people clueless about who the owner behind the company was,
But certainly, it could not fool the nation. The ambassador’s words just affirmed it.
Wang Ye nodded, there was nothing to hide. He was indeed investing his own capital in China.
For China, this was absolutely a great boon.
"Yes, I have such intentions. With the economic development in recent years, there are a lot of opportunities in various sectors in China.
However, one cannot be greedy and bite off more than one can chew. My energy and capital are limited, I can’t possibly involve myself in every industry.
Therefore, at the moment, I am more inclined to invest in internet and commercial real estate.
Investments in the internet are made through the Polar Bear Investment Company, an investment company I co-own with my uncle, which doesn’t have a small scale.
Furthermore, this company invests globally. Any high-quality internet enterprises, no matter which country they are from, would be considered.
I have now invested in several internet companies in China and America.
My personal asset management company focuses on investing in domestic commercial real estate..."
Wang Ye briefly explained his investment strategy. After all, when investing in China, particularly in the field of commercial real estate, it was crucial to sustain a good relationship with the domestic side.
Because the location of commercial real estate was a crucial factor, the closer to the city center and bustling areas, the better!
But these premium locations were not just available to anyone. Without some connections, don’t even think about it.
Since the Ambassador asked explicitly, it was clear that as long as Wang Ye agreed, the asset management company would receive some special considerations.
Perhaps Wang Ye might not be able to help the domestic front in normal circumstances, but once he steps in, he would be of great help!
On the contrary, on the matters concerning him, the domestic side could not offer much assistance.
The most they could do was to provide greater convenience and benefits when he invested in China.
But was Wang Ye really concerned about these benefits?
