Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth

Chapter 650: Chapter 650: Another Kind of Emotion_1

Last time he went to Moscow, Wang Ye told her a lot of things.

Although some of the business investment projects were quite astonishing, after all, the names of the companies Wang Ye mentioned were not as astonishing as Yukos Group!

Zhang Xiaoxi’s first reaction was, Wang Ye’s net worth...

Could it have surpassed ten billion US dollars?!

It’s not surprising to have this suspicion. After all, an energy behemoth like Yukos Group must be worth several hundred billion US dollars.

As a major shareholder of this company, Wang Ye’s shares can easily exceed ten billion US dollars.

And that does not even include the many other companies that Wang Ye controls!

Although Wang Ye is very wealthy in Zhang Xiaoxi’s memory, it was limited to a net worth of ten or twenty billion US dollars.

The distance from the ten billion US dollars that could enter the global rich list is still huge.

But now, only half a year has passed, and Wang Ye suddenly told her that he has become a billionaire, and perhaps even more, how could Zhang Xiaoxi not be startled?

The second thing is even more outrageous.

Party Leader? Director? Vice Speaker?!

Zhang Xiaoxi doesn’t quite understand the concept of being a party leader and director, but she does know what level a Deputy Speaker of the Duma is.

If compared to the United States, wouldn’t it be the equivalent of a Deputy Chairman of the Senate there?

Compared to the domestic situation... nevermind, the concepts are not the same, so they can’t be compared.

One thing is certain, this is undoubtedly a high-ranking big shot!

How did Wang Ye achieve this? Can he reach this level just by virtue of the so-called identity of Khodorkovsky’s nephew?

...

"Hello? Xiao Xi, are you still there?"

After a while, without hearing Zhang Xiaoxi’s voice, Wang Ye thought there might be a problem with the signal.

"I’m... I’m here. The next time I go to Moscow, will I have a police escort?"

Regaining her senses, Zhang Xiaoxi jokingly said, trying to appear casual.

"Haha, maybe not in Moscow, it would be too ostentatious. But it would work in any other city," Wang Ye laughed.

Understandably, his Vice-Speaker status would not be suitable for being too ostentatious in Moscow, the capital.

Of course, if Wang Ye really doesn’t care, it wouldn’t be a problem to have a police escort for a few turns, and there probably wouldn’t be anyone to criticize him.

As for going to other cities, or to Crimea, local officials in charge of reception must arrange for a police escort without Wang Ye having to say anything.

With Wang Ye’s current status, he can enjoy this privilege!

So, if Zhang Xiaoxi really wanted to experience the feeling of having a police escort, Wang Ye wouldn’t disappoint her...

"Then I must find an opportunity to go there again. Our high school class isn’t all that far removed. Who would have thought the gap would be so big? I’m one of the top students in our class, I wonder how our classmates would feel if they knew your current status..."

In the end, Zhang Xiaoxi sighed.

This was absolutely the truth, she thought and spoke it honestly, without any concealment from Wang Ye.

When the college entrance examination results came out, Zhang Xiaoxi was the only one in her class, and the entire school, who got into Tsinghua!

For them as students, the college entrance examination was definitely a watershed in their lives.

Before the college entrance examination, everyone was classmates and interacted on equal footing.

But after the college entrance examination, their lives changed.

Some people, like Zhang Xiaoxi and the other students who had been admitted to prestigious schools, had effectively completed a class leap and would never return to their small hometowns to develop their careers.

They are likely to stay in the capital, at least working, living, marrying and having children in first-tier cities.

They become true city residents, settling in first-tier cities, and will no longer have any intersection with most of their old classmates.

Students who got into second or third-tier schools, or didn’t get into college at all, faced a different destiny...

At that time, Zhang Xiaoxi viewed Wang Ye with pity.

Originally, she had a good impression of the boy, who was average in academics, a bit bad even, but who was a bit handsome, and popular among the girls.

If Wang Ye could have gotten into a first or even second-tier school in the capital, she might have tried to interact more with him, and who knows, perhaps they might have even had a connection.

Unfortunately, Wang Ye’s college entrance examination results were even worse than usual, he didn’t even pass the undergraduate line.

But later, when she heard that Wang Ye was going to study abroad, Zhang Xiaoxi had a bit of hope. During the first year when she went home for the Spring Festival, she went to Wang Ye’s house to invite him to the class reunion, but unfortunately, he wasn’t there.

Then, during the second Spring Festival, Wang Ye finally returned to China and participated in the class reunion.

It was at this reunion that Zhang Xiaoxi discovered the tremendous change in Wang Ye!

It wasn’t just a regular change, it was too astonishing....

Driving a Mercedes-Benz G worth millions, he donated a million U.S. dollars to the school at the drop of a hat!

How rich must one be to "splurge" like that?!

But even then, Zhang Xiaoxi thought that Wang Ye had made a fortune doing business, with a net worth of tens of millions at most?

Thinking bigger, maybe a net worth of thirty to fifty million US dollars!

Although these were staggering figures for Zhang Xiaoxi, she didn’t find it too surprising since she was a high-performing student at Tsinghua, with rather elevated tastes.

But after going to Moscow last summer and understanding Wang Ye’s true "strength", Zhang Xiaoxi understood what "astonishing" really meant!

She was taken by Wang Ye on a tour of deep Russia.

Of course, she also experienced firsthand what it feels like to be a super-rich and top-ranking powerful figure!

Zhang Xiaoxi gained Wang Ye’s trust and is now managing Wang Ye’s "piggy bank", an asset management company in China.

Now, her feelings for Wang Ye have changed from the emotions between young men and women, to a different kind of emotion.

That is, sincere admiration, even reverence!

This feeling became even more evident today after hearing the two things Wang Ye said...

In terms of financial strength, Wang Ye could now make it into the global rich list and his ranking would not be too low!

As for his position, if going by the type of ranking used in CCTV news, Wang Ye’s name could probably appear within the top ten in Russia!

How could Zhang Xiaoxi not revere him...
