While Wang Ye was meeting with employee representatives and Rusal headquarters representatives, Drepaska was still on the passenger plane from Siberia to Petersburg.

He only received the news this morning that Mikhail, the deputy speaker of the Duma, had come as a special representative to handle this matter. Only then did Drepaska take it seriously and came over. However, he had not yet arrived in Pikalevo. After all, he

I haven’t bought a private jet yet.

Sitting in the first class cabin, Drepaska discussed the royal business with his deputy.

"This Mikhail is said to have a good way of doing things. How do you think he will handle this aluminum factory incident?"

The assistant adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and thought for a moment before answering confidently:

"Based on his past work style and your background, boss, I estimate that he will ask the Petersburg City Hall to come forward to talk to the aluminum factory employees, which will transfer the conflict.

As for the internal affairs of our group, of course they are left to us to handle."

Derepaska raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Why do you say that? As far as I know, Mikhail is not as friendly as he appears, and sometimes he can be very harsh. Look at what happened to the former governor of Moscow

You know it, he sent him directly into the iron cage!"

The assistant explained calmly:

"That's a different situation.

The former governor of Moscow was the first to take action against Mikhail, and Mikhail was counterattacking.

Of course he is ruthless when dealing with his enemies, but he is much more tactful towards his friends or people with whom he can have some connections.

If you really think about it, boss you and he belong to the same faction, and you both have an unusual relationship with the Kremlin.

Even if he doesn't look at your face, he still has to look at the face of your wife and grandfather, right?

just in case!

I mean, if he doesn’t even give face to his predecessor, the former Kremlin, can the current Kremlin allow him to do whatever he wants?”

Drepaska smiled reservedly. Of course he knew these things, but now that he said them through his assistant's mouth, it strengthened his confidence!

He has almost monopolized the domestic aluminum market, completed the accumulation of wealth, and plans to enter the political arena next.

This time, he wanted to use strong methods to deal with the matter, let some people know his style of doing things, and also leave a preliminary impression on everyone.

In this way, when I enter the political arena in the future, I will have a lot less trouble...

Because when most people want to provoke themselves, they will first consider their own revenge!

…………

Of course Wang Ye didn't know what Derepaska was thinking on the plane, and he didn't care either.

At this moment, he was speaking in front of reporters' cameras in the conference room.

After representatives from both sides expressed their demands, it was obvious that it was impossible to solve the problem immediately today.

Because no one was present at Rusal to tell the real story.

Wang Ye did not talk nonsense with them anymore, but directly made the final speech.

Looking at the camera, Wang Ye said seriously: "I won't say anything more. Now, on behalf of the Kremlin and the Duma, I promise one thing to the citizens of Petersburg, and that is to completely resolve this matter tomorrow at the latest!"

Tomorrow, I will hold final talks with aluminum plant employee representatives and the chairman of RUSAL Group, and there will be a live TV broadcast, and everyone is welcome to watch it on TV in real time."

His words were so powerful that many people in the conference room were shocked.

Because this is not about big words or harsh words, but an ultimatum!

Everything you say in front of reporters’ cameras must be honored!

If the problem cannot be solved tomorrow, how will others view Wang Ye?

To put it more seriously, it means that its reputation has been ruined!

The mayor of Petersburg is sweating on his nose. Maybe the electric heater in the conference room is turned on a little too high, a little too hot...

…………

At the end of the meeting, the employee representatives, Rusal representatives, reporters and media all dispersed. Only Wang Ye, Assistant Nova, two members of the Economic Committee, the Mayor of Petersburg and several members of the Petersburg City Hall were left in the conference room.

staff member.

Now we are all on our own, and when everyone talks behind closed doors, they naturally say what they have to say.

The mayor of Petersburg said with some worry: "Speaker Mikhail, what you just said...are you leaving no room for retreat? Will tomorrow's talks really be broadcast live on TV? What if it happens live?

What should I do if there is a stalemate?”

He was indeed worried about this.

Because the Rusal Group headquarters has a very firm attitude, he has also been on the phone with Drepaska in the past few days, and it can be heard that Drepaska is definitely not willing to give in.

What will Mikhail do tomorrow?

Wang Ye smiled slightly and said confidently: "It doesn't matter. Any conflict can be solved, as long as the right method can be found. I believe that tomorrow's talks will go smoothly. It is not a complicated problem to begin with."

The mayor of Petersburg looked at Wang Ye blankly. He didn't know why Wang Ye was so confident.

Is there really some clever way that I didn't think of?

The main point of contradiction now is...

The wages owed to employees are money!

Thinking of this, an idea flashed in his mind. If it hadn't been in front of Wang Ye, he would have slapped his thigh...

Because he remembered that the Mikhail in front of him was not just the deputy speaker of the Duma!

He is still the famous "God of Wealth"!

It is said... No, this is not a rumor, it is absolutely true. The God of Wealth now holds more than 100 billion US dollars in his hands!

cash!

That industrial fund office has been the hottest topic in the political arena recently.

Although he is far away from the center of Moscow's political arena, he is still the mayor of Petersburg, and his position is not low. Of course, he will also pay attention to the trends in Moscow.

Therefore, Mikhail's statement just now can be explained.

The worst result is that Rusal headquarters refuses to give in and pay the wages owed to the workers. Then Mikhail can find any reason and have the Industrial Fund Office allocate a sum of money to advance the wages of the workers.

.

Then the problem will be solved!

…………

That night, Wang Ye did not go back to downtown Petersburg, but stayed directly.

Although the accommodation conditions here are relatively poor and incomparable to those in Petersburg, Wang Ye doesn't care.

In the evening, an unexpected guest came over, it was Rosiana's grandfather Constantine.

Wang Ye hasn't seen this old man for a while, but it seems that Constantine is still in good health and in good spirits.

Seeing Wang Ye, Constantine's face was full of smiles and he gave Wang Ye a big hug.

"Haha, Misha, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your and Rosiana's careers are developing very well now. I'm very happy for you."

Of course he was happy.

My own granddaughter now holds the important position of governor of Moscow Region!

She has also established her own faction, which is already quite large...

After a few more years of accumulation, Rosiana may even hope to reach the highest position!

If Wang Ye is there to help, then if the two of them join forces, there will be almost no opponent in the entire Moscow political arena!

There is hope for the re-emergence of my family!

…………

After asking Constantine to sit down, Wang Ye asked: "Grandpa, why are you here so late?"

He was already engaged to Rosiana, so naturally he followed Rosiana in calling Constantine "Grandpa".

Constantine smiled heartily and said: "Didn't I hear that you came to Petersburg? I originally thought that you would stay in the city at night, so I didn't come over in advance. It turned out that you stayed here directly tonight, for fear of you

I will leave directly after I finish handling the matter tomorrow, so I will rush over to meet you and have a casual chat."

They said it was just a casual chat, but it was obvious that something was going on, but Wang Ye didn't clarify.

Sure enough, after chatting for a while, Constantine changed the topic to the main topic and asked: "I heard that your industry fund office is working on a big project, with an investment of billions or even tens of billions of dollars!"

Wang Ye thought for a while and said blankly: "Ah? Is there any? I didn't pay much attention to it. After all, there are quite a lot of projects in the Industrial Fund Office. Maybe I didn't pay attention to it."

Constantine sighed, "Hey, now tens of billions of projects are no longer attractive to you?"

He was really feeling emotional, because maybe what Wang Ye said just now might be true, and he really didn't pay attention to this kind of multi-billion dollar project...

Wang Ye quickly waved his hands and said with a smile: "That's not the case, it's just that I haven't paid much attention to the work in the fund office these days. Maybe they have sent the report, and I haven't bothered to read it yet. Grandpa, just tell me directly,

What kind of project is it? What are your ideas? Do we still need to talk about it?"

Constantine stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly:
To be continued...
