Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 993: For whom

"Usually the pressure of work is so great, the health problems can't be ignored." The richest man shook his head with regret. "President Karma Chin is also plagued by heart disease."

Tang Huan’s saying this is too euphemistic—Russian men’s habit of drinking two sips when they’re fine is well known, but karma is no longer in the realm of "drinking two sips without a problem", but is too alcoholic to become dependent on alcohol. At this point, even diplomatic occasions are ignored.

For example, the gaffe of Bill Clinton at the inauguration of the US President in 1993, the Irish Prime Minister Albert Reynolds waiting humiliatingly outside the plane in 1994 without getting a meeting, etc., were all drunk. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a "diplomatic accident".

Anatoly Alexandrovich Sobchak’s eating habits are not much better than Yeltsin’s.

Speaking of this, the richest man mused and suggested: "Or, you can take advantage of the time when you are in the wild and go to Western European countries with more developed medical conditions to take a good rest."

Tang Huan’s words are also very euphemistic. The real meaning inside is to let Sobchak go abroad to avoid the limelight, and Gein’s political liquidation against him has already become an irresistible posture.

"My passport, there may be a problem." Sobchak's answer with a wry smile also reflects the somewhat embarrassment of his current situation.

However, a political veteran like Sobchak is certainly not going to stand still, and he must have a plan to deal with it.

He turned to ask: "Tang, do you think President Karma Chin can successfully win the second round of voting and be re-elected?"

The richest man immediately understood that the other party was hoping that Karma Chin would continue to stay on stage in order to suppress signs of political liquidation in Russia.

I have to say that reformers like Sobchak are quite upright in their style of action.

Tang Huan replied confidently: "Perhaps, the process was a bit thrilling, but the result is definitely satisfactory."

In addition to being severely constrained by his own heart disease, Karmaqin's political career was also spurned by public opinion-the phenomenon that the approval rate at the beginning of this year was close to zero illustrates this problem.

The reason is very simple. In the past few years, Karma Chin has been the president of Russia. It can be said that people's livelihood has withered. On the contrary, the people's life is not as good as that of the Soviet Union. How can they still be willing to support him!

However, the social reality is very cruel—Russia’s right to speak is not in the hands of the poor, but is held by the minority who made a lot of money from the privatization process.

This type of wealthy people who were originally called "oligarchs" a few years later found that once Karma Chin stepped down, there would be no people with sufficient political power to protect their vested interests on the stage, so they squatted. Karma Chin, who is in poor health, participated in this year's presidential election and provided various support.

To put it bluntly, these people are determined not to let the Russian Communist Party come to power. Although compared with the previous version, this faction has undergone drastic changes in its political and governance program, but their **** is not on their side.

As a result, the first round of voting held on June 16 was extremely fierce. Karma Chin, who fought as an independent candidate, received more than 26.66 million votes, representing a ratio of 35.8%; and the representatives elected by the Russian Communist Party —— Gennady Zyuganov, got more than 24.21 million votes, the ratio was 32.5%.

This shows how close the "support" of the two sides is.

It is worth noting that the proportion of "protest votes" in the election process cannot be ignored.

The so-called "protest votes" refer to those votes that deliberately vote for candidates who have a low chance of winning, or candidates that have been controversial in society, to express dissatisfaction with major political or party candidates.

Under normal circumstances, those who cast "protest votes" account for only a small part of the electorate, which has little effect on the results of the election.

But in the first round of the Russian presidential election, more than 1.16 million people voted for "protest votes", the proportion reached 1.6%, which exceeded the votes of several escorts.

Judging from the current chaos, in the upcoming second round of voting on July 3, it is really confusing whether Karma Chin and Gennady Zyuganov will eventually win.

However, Tang Huan knew how the small group of people who now occupy the most resources in Russia could be restless and desperate.

"I hope so." Sobchak nodded, and then changed the conversation: "Although my travel is restricted now, I want my daughter Ksenia to go abroad to receive more advanced higher education—— I wonder if Tang can help?"

It seems that Sobchak is also preparing for the back road. After all, the latest opinion poll result is that Gennady Zyuganov has steadily exceeded 25%, while karma has been reluctantly maintained at around 10%.

The richest man laughed blankly and said: "With a little effort, you can rest assured."

...

Compared with Sobchak's busy self-protection, Pu Jing must move around-in this turbulent and unpredictable changing situation, it is a good opportunity to bet.

Tang Huan took Pu Jing and mainly contacted two circles.

At the beginning of this year, Boris Abramovich Berezovsky, President of United Bank, and Vladimir Gusinski, President of Bridge Bank, took the lead and joined forces with Mikhail, President of Menatep Bank. Khodorkovsky, Alexander Smolensky, President of Capital Savings Bank, Vladimir Vinogradov, President of International Commercial Bank, Mikhail Friedman, President of Alfa Bank, The president of the Russian Credit Commercial Bank Markin and others formed an alliance to support Karma Chin's re-election to prevent Gennady Zyuganov from being elected.

To describe it in a more well-known sentence, this is the "seven oligarchs" with Russian characteristics.

The Karma Qin poll is so low that it is not easy to maintain a double-digit 10%, but in the first round of elections, they still won by more than 3 percentage points. The secret lies in the money.

Russia’s electoral law restricts the upper limit of each presidential candidate’s campaign spending to 3 million U.S. dollars. Even if Gennady Zyuganov of the Russian Communist Party wants to overspend, he may not have the financial resources; and Yelinchin’s side. When it comes to funding, it ranges from 700 million US dollars to 2 billion US dollars-the specific figures are secretive, and it is estimated that no one can say for sure.

Where does so much money come from? Of course it is these oligarchs.

In addition, international forces are exerting influence overtly or secretly. For example, under the urging of the United States, the International Monetary Fund promised Russia's 10.2 billion US dollars loan, which arrived this year. This is tantamount to a timely rain, making the Karma government sufficient to pay the wages and pensions of millions of Russians in arrears.

The money is over, and the next is naturally a big media war.

These oligarchs not only own banks and control oil and other profiteering industries, but also control newspapers and television stations-Boris Abramovich Berezovsky and Vladimir Gusinsky. Another identity of the media tycoon.

The richest man took Lisboa, who was not in the ranking at this time, to attend the event, which was the banquet held by Boris Abramovich Berezovsky.

These oligarchs want to use public occasions such as this to create an atmosphere where no one can replace karma and political status.

At the banquet, they screamed that once Gennady Zyuganov and the Russian Communist Party came to power, Russia would fall back to the Stalin era under high-pressure rule, and many people present could not escape being sent to the Gulag labor camp. Tragic fate.

I have to say that the trick to instigate such a panic is very effective, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it hit Gennady Zyuganov's death.

Tang Huan took a sip of the wine glass, and then glanced at Lisboa, who was carefully observing the dynamics of the banquet. He wondered-Sobchak’s many political ideas would harm the interests of the oligarchs in front of him, and make St. Petersburg. After he was liquidated, he did not receive strong support in Russia.

With the support of these oligarchs, after Yeltsin has been re-elected without risk, it is estimated that he will become more dependent on the interest group, and in the end he will not be able to do Sobchak's life-saving straw.

At this time, the impassioned Boris Abramovich Berezovsky approached and said, "Don, do business with you."

The richest man smiled: "That must be a big deal."

"It's not that big, it depends on whether you are willing to raise your hand on the price." Boris Abramovich Berezovsky said in a low voice: "I need the level to be able to withstand the eyes of everyone in Russia. Inspection of computer image processing services."

Hearing the sound of the piano, Tang Huan put down his wine glass and asked casually: "Why, is Karma to check the health of the President, is he not allowed to participate in the next public campaign?"

"Tang really is a smart man with a well-deserved reputation-no matter what, you can't hide it from your eyes." Boris Abramovich Berezovsky complimented him, and asked the waiter to bring the top of his collection. Volga, "Karma Chin President’s heart disease was very serious at the beginning of the year, and the work pressure in the past few months has been so heavy, and now I am overwhelmed."

Boris Abramovich Berezovsky personally poured wine on the richest man, "I think, with the combination of Tang’s computer technology and Hollywood special effects, we can make some karma that President Chin is still working with illness. Photos shouldn’t be a problem.”

Tang Huan did not answer right away. Instead, he took the bottle and filled Lisboa next to him with a glass. Then he introduced: "This is Vladimir Vladimirovich Lisboa, the property of the current president. The deputy director of the administration office was formerly the deputy mayor of St. Petersburg."

Boris Abramovich Berezovsky smiled meaningfully and said: "The St. Petersburg side is very lively now."

The richest man raised his glass and said: "No matter how lively there is in St. Petersburg, it has nothing to do with Vladimir-he intends to develop his own business in Moscow."

Boris Abramovich Berezovsky nodded clearly, and after a few conversations with Lisboa, he turned back to the previous topic, "Tang, how about the business I just mentioned? "

"What kind of business is not business." Tang Huan smiled faintly, "Although the Internet on the Russian side is not as powerful as the US, it can be regarded as thriving, and I am worried about not being able to find the professional talents you requested. ?"

"What Don said is." Boris Abramović Berezovsky smiled comprehensibly.

...

After coming out of this lively and even frenetic banquet, the richest man who walked to the car said with emotion, "Today's Russia, the fate is determined by these people."

After speaking, Tang Huan smiled at Lisboa: "Go back and have a good rest. Tomorrow we will visit President Yeltsin."

"Isn't President Yeltsin being inadequate for health reasons now?" Lisboa asked somewhat unexpectedly-he has been working in Moscow for a few days, but at best, he took a look at Karma from a distance.

The richest man asked playfully: "If one day I visit you in the Kremlin and feel unwell, will you be turned away?"

Lisboa waved his hand boldly, "Am I the kind of person who doesn't cherish friendship!"

...

Yeltsin does need to rest ~www.NovelMTL.com~ but Tang Huan has a lot of contacts available. For example, the line maintained by Nelkin and Karma Chin’s youngest daughter Tatyana.

The current situation of the gymnastics Olympic champion Nelkin is not comparable to those of his former colleagues who are currently struggling in life. She holds important positions in sports organizations such as the International Gymnastics Federation and the Russian Olympic Committee. She is also an important director of the Down's global sports industry, and her social status is extraordinary.

Moreover, through deeds such as relieving former athletes who have had a hard time, they have gained a lot of prestige.

With these capitals, Nelikin is enough to make friends with Russia's first daughter on an equal footing.

Tatyana's current position in the presidential palace is very special. She is always with her father who is troubled by heart disease. She is the manager of Karma's presidential election team this year. The special power of her hand is self-evident.

After the meeting, the richest man asked with concern, "What is the effect of the Chinese medicine health care I recommend."

"Very good." Tatyana replied gratefully: "Some of my father's symptoms have been significantly relieved."

"That's good." Tang Huan nodded and introduced Lisboa beside him casually.

Next, the richest man and Karma Chin, who was still recuperating, had a brief meeting for 10 minutes and talked about some good news from their own perspective, which made the other party a lot easier.

...

Tang Huan spent a few days in Russia, and the second round of presidential elections came as scheduled on July 3.

The independent candidate Karma Chin, who was obviously at a disadvantage in the previous polls, won 54.4% of the votes and defeated the Russian Communist candidate Gennady Zyuganov and was re-elected as Russian President as he wished.

However, his inauguration will not be held until August 9.
