Chapter 976: Chapter 888 Things Have Escalated

Wang Ye came today specifically to teach Rossiyana a lesson.

He wanted her to understand how to truly control a faction and what it means to be a real "top brass".

With Rossiyana’s intelligence and talent, as long as she was given a little guidance, she would be able to grasp it.

Of course, if she wanted to apply it skillfully, that would require a lot more practice.

Fortunately, Rossiyana’s trust in Wang Ye was virtually unconditional, and she never doubted what he said to her.

After a lengthy discussion, Rossiyana already had a plan in mind.

For the following period, what she needed to do was not to blindly expand the size of the faction but to unify the thinking within.

She had to impose certain restrictions on Du Jin and others, preventing them from continuing to spout nonsense outside...

Because Wang Ye had already directly informed Rossiyana that the Kremlin was also paying close attention to Du Jin’s exclusive interview.

What does this mean?

It was obviously not a compliment but dissatisfaction!

And the very fact that Wang Ye made a special trip to tell her this was, in itself, indicative of his stance.

Wang Ye was also dissatisfied with Du Jin.

It was fine for Du Jin to say those things within the faction, but to air them on the National TV station was overstepping the bounds!

To put it bluntly, such matters of national strategy were not up to Du Jin to call the shots!

Of course, Du Jin had the right to express his thoughts.

But the premise was that it should not affect the national image or diplomatic relations, which it evidently did have a negative impact.

That’s why the Kremlin subtly expressed its dissatisfaction.

If it were someone else instead of Rossiyana, the Kremlin’s response would likely not be limited to mere expressions of dissatisfaction...

Having finished the official discussion, it was then time for their private affairs.

The two hadn’t seen each other for several days, and the commotion was quite intense, to the point where Tsova, working outside, heard them...

She quickly got up and shut the door of the outer office as well and specifically instructed a young assistant to stand by the door so that no one could enter.

If anyone came looking for Rossiyana, they were to be told she was dealing with important public affairs and was currently unavailable!

......

On November 1, the Kremlin officially announced its nomination of Medvedev for the new Prime Minister.

Following the announcement of the nomination, the process moved on to the Duma Congress for a full voting decision.

As long as he received more than 50% of the votes, Medvedev would then be the new Prime Minister.

This candidate caused a stir in the Moscow political arena. Not to mention other factions, even within the first faction to which Medvedev belonged, many people expressed their inability to understand the choice.

Because his experience was too limited!

Before the nomination, he was only the general manager of the Russian Gas Industry Group.

Oh, and he also held the title of Deputy Director of the National Economic Commission.

But this was still quite a stretch from Prime Minister...

Even Grezlov expressed his dissatisfaction with Wang Ye in his office.

In Wang Ye’s office, Grezlov was a bit agitated, flailing his arms as he complained:

"I really don’t understand what the Kremlin is thinking!

Why would they let Medvedev, this greenhorn, take on such an important role when there are so many more seasoned, experienced, and capable candidates in the faction waiting for their chance.

Misha, not to hide anything from you, but since the nomination was announced, quite a few people from our faction have come to me with complaints!

Ah, there are already quite a few senior Congressmen in the faction who have explicitly stated they would not support Medvedev during the vote.

So, Misha, will you support Medvedev when it comes to the vote?"

This last question must be the real reason he came to see Wang Ye!

Wang Ye smiled and said nonchalantly, "Personally, I don’t oppose this nomination... However, how the other members of my faction choose, well, that’s beyond my control, after all, Medvedev has no relation to our faction."

Grezlov probably didn’t know that the suggestion to nominate Medvedev initially came from Wang Ye...

The Kremlin, after several days of consideration, indeed found no more suitable candidate than Medvedev, which is why they put forward this nomination.

Medvedev’s abilities were not in question; what was more crucial was that he belonged to the Petersburg Faction and was a favored protégé of a particular individual!

In terms of loyalty, he was certainly incomparable to Kasianov.

After promoting Medvedev to this position, the Kremlin wouldn’t have to worry about the government being uncooperative in the future.

With this nomination out, the Kremlin had clearly made a comprehensive consideration and deliberate deliberation, understanding that this nomination could face opposition in the Duma, or even result in a failed vote!

But they would also take action, lobbying different factions. If one nomination didn’t pass, then they’d try a second time, and if that didn’t work, a third time!

Until it passed...

After all, the initiative was in the Kremlin’s hands!

Of course, if the nomination was rejected by the Duma repeatedly, the Kremlin would also lose face.

Therefore, they still hoped it would pass the first time.

......

Hearing Wang Ye’s stance, Grezlov narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to fathom what Wang Ye was truly thinking.

Grezlov was very dissatisfied with the Kremlin’s nomination.

After Kasianov was suddenly "dismissed," the position of Prime Minister became vacant, and Grezlov had thoughts of his own.

He wanted to push one of his old comrades into the role—a comrade who was currently serving as Vice Minister. Whether in terms of seniority, reputation, or capabilities, he was the best replacement after Kasianov’s departure!
