Chapter 975: Chapter 887: Taught a Lesson_2

He had also called Rossiyana beforehand.

So as soon as he entered the lobby on the first floor, he saw his "former assistant" Tsova hurriedly approaching him.

"Speaker, the Boss is waiting for you in the office, please follow me."

Tsova approached with a smile and greeted Wang Ye.

Wang Ye nodded and followed Tsova into the elevator.

The two arrived at the top floor, the seventh floor, which was entirely Rossiyana’s office area.

Perhaps having learned from Wang Ye, Rossiyana had also set up an assistant’s office, meeting room, reception room, and pantry in her office area, all quite impressive!

As he pushed open the door to Rossiyana’s office, she was looking at a document. Hearing footsteps, she looked up and saw Wang Ye, and a smile appeared on her face.

She stood up, walked around the large desk, and came to Wang Ye, where they embraced each other.

Tsova, of course, had tactfully left, closing the office door behind her.

After their affectionate greeting, Rossiyana still had her arms around Wang Ye’s neck and said happily, "What do you think of our Faction’s headquarters?"

Wang Ye nodded and said with a smile, "It’s very good, this location is highly valuable, the rent mustn’t be cheap, right?"

Rossiyana giggled like a child who had sneaked some sweets and whispered into Wang Ye’s ear, "No rent needed, I extorted it from my grandfather, this building was originally our family property. Now it has been transferred to my name, well, you can consider it one of my dowries, you’re getting a bargain."

If his hands weren’t wrapped around Rossiyana’s waist, Wang Ye would have wanted to rub his nose.

This "bargain," he didn’t really want to take advantage of it...

No matter how expensive the properties on this street were, to the current Wang Ye, that meant little.

A mere slip through his fingers would probably be enough to buy a few buildings like this!

But now it equaled owing Constantin, that old fox, a favor.

And this little building was still registered in Rossiyana’s name.

Probably when Rossiyana asked Constantin for this building, Constantin was secretly pleased...

...

The two sat down on the sofa, with Rossiyana clinging tightly to Wang Ye, holding onto his arm without letting go.

Patting the back of Rossiyana’s hand, Wang Ye asked with concern, "How’s work been recently, is it going smoothly?"

Rossiyana nodded vigorously, smiling, "It’s pretty smooth, after all, I’m quite familiar with Faction affairs now, and the two years spent by your side weren’t in vain. Besides, don’t underestimate our New Faction, it’s full of talents, with many intellectuals!"

It seemed she had found a career truly her own; the smile on her face was genuinely heartfelt.

Wang Ye silently nodded, and tactfully said, "Since you are a New Faction, although publicity is important, you also have to pay attention to the way it’s done. You don’t want to end up isolated by the existing major Factions. That would be bad, facing invisible suppressions from all sides."

Rossiyana frowned, sensing the implication in Wang Ye’s words.

"Is it because of Du Jin’s interview the other day that some unfavorable opinions have arisen?" she asked.

Wang Ye replied frankly, "Yes, it’s related to that. The things he’s been promoting are too radical and don’t fit the current national situation."

Rossiyana seemed a bit agitated. She stood up and walked around the office twice, her pace a bit fast.

Then she stopped, turned to face Wang Ye, and said angrily, "Are you saying that you think we’re causing trouble? Or is it that, because of our relationship, your reputation as the great Speaker has been affected?"

Wang Ye’s face remained smiling, not angered by Rossiyana’s questioning.

He responded calmly, "I’m not commenting on your Faction’s ideals; as long as you don’t engage in illegal activities, I will support you. But you have to understand, I am reminding you because I want to help you, not harm you."

After locking eyes with Wang Ye’s firm gaze for a moment, Rossiyana turned her head away, slightly ashamed.

She murmured, "But... our Faction is inherently radical, that is our characteristic."

Indeed, the Tsarist faction, if they weren’t a bit radical, they wouldn’t carry the "Tsar" in their name!

Wang Ye gestured, indicating Rossiyana to come over and sit down.

Once she sat down, Wang Ye turned his head to stare into her eyes and said solemnly, "You must always remember that you are the Faction Party Leader!

This faction needs to develop in an orderly manner and must be firmly controlled by you.

Not someone else giving you a sweet talk, making you dizzy, and in the end, others gain fame and followers, while you get left holding the bag for them!

It is said that you use the capable without doubts, and you shouldn’t employ the doubted, but the premise is that these people must truly serve you.

They should assist you under your command and control to realize your ideals.

Of course, in doing so, they could also achieve their own dreams.

If their ideals and beliefs do not align with yours or even conflict.

Then it’s simple, ask them to leave!"

Wang Ye’s words clearly had a big impact on Rossiyana.

This was a lesson in employing staff from someone of higher status, something she had never encountered before.

Rossiyana hesitated before asking, "But at this stage, Mr. Du Jin’s popularity is much larger than mine and he has more influence; his viewpoints have also been unanimously approved by the committee within the faction. If I were to object, wouldn’t that... cause chaos within our faction?"

Wang Ye smiled slightly and said seriously, "Then let me ask you, why didn’t they establish a faction before and why did they invite you, the so-called Grand Duke of Romanov, to step in? If Du Jin were so much more famous than you, why doesn’t he become the Party leader?"

Rossiyana was stunned for a moment and then replied with uncertainty, "Is it because of... my Grand Duke title? Or is it... because they needed my sponsorship?"

Wang Ye laughed and tapped his finger on her forehead:

"It seems you’ve learned something over these two years with me; your brain hasn’t gone dull.

You are right!

Without the legitimate name of the Romanov family, this faction would not have the influence it has today!

Without the billions of US dollars your family has poured in, where would the faction get the money for building headquarters and for publicity.

Of course, there’s something you’ve omitted, and that element is crucial.

That is, you have political resources that they could never reach!"

Rossiyana seemed to realize something, her lips parted in surprise, "You mean..."

Wang Ye nodded, "Yes, because you have me behind you! And... that person."

Saying this, he pointed upwards with his hand, implying volumes without speaking further.

At this point, if Rossiyana still didn’t understand, she would indeed be too slow-witted.

She suddenly came to a realization; indeed, she was the real core of the faction!

Without her, there would be no foundation for this faction to exist, let alone a future!

As the sole legitimate offspring of the Romanov family, crowned with the title of Grand Duke, her appeal amongst the public was undeniably significant.

Moreover, all the operational funds of the faction were her own contributions. Du Jin and Stekhov were broke; the little salary they managed to earn was probably just enough to sustain themselves. Thus, before she joined, despite their grand aspirations, they lacked the means to act.

Why hadn’t so many TV stations invited Du Jin for interviews before? It was only now, because her faction had doled out quite the sum in "sponsorship fees" to the media!

Let alone the fact that her fiancée and father-in-law, two true "Buddhas", were standing behind her!

Perhaps that was the political capital Stekhov and Du Jin had always dreamed of...

Just because of her connections, neither the Kremlin nor the Duma would truly suppress the New Faction; at most, they would issue a few warnings when they disapproved.

But without her standing here, this New Faction might very well be at risk of being suppressed or even disbanded at any time!
