Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

  It’s a pity that Wang Ye’s “private visit on private server” plan did not go well. It was almost sabotaged before it even started...

Take the elevator to the lobby on the first floor. The lobby looks deserted, with few people except the service staff.

Because the Sixth WTO Ministerial Conference is to be held, this hotel is a designated unit, so from today onwards, the hotel will no longer receive ordinary customers, and will only be occupied by delegation members from various WTO member states.

Just as Wang Ye was about to walk out of the lobby, a girl who was sitting on the sofa in the lounge area of ​​the hotel lobby stood up and walked straight towards him.

At this moment, there were several sharp eyes in the lobby looking at the girl at the same time. They must have evaluated and found that the girl was not "dangerous", so those people did not do anything.

Only the two plainclothes security guards behind Wang Ye took two quick steps quietly and approached Wang Ye's side in case there was any emergency.

The girl stopped when she was about three steps away from Wang Ye, and looked at Wang Ye with a slight hesitation, but when she saw Wang Ye's appearance clearly, her eyes lit up.

 In proficient Russian, he asked tentatively: "Director Mikhail?"

Wang Ye was a little surprised. He also looked at the girl who was standing in front of him. She seemed to be in her twenties, with a standard Asian appearance, fair skin, a slim and strong figure, a ponytail, and Full of youthful vitality.

Those **** and white eyes stared at me watery. From the eyes, we could see surprise, surprise and excitement, maybe a little eager to try?

Since he was recognized, Wang Ye nodded with a smile and responded: "Hello, what do you want from me?"

 In fact, he had already seen a sign hanging on the girl's chest, which was a media interview pass.

 Only reporters with this interview pass can enter the conference venue for interviews during this meeting, so this girl must be a reporter from some media.

Sure enough, the girl quickly responded: "Hello, Director Mikhail, I am Yu Xin, a reporter from Oriental Daily. I wonder if I have the honor to conduct a brief interview with you."

 She still said this sentence in proficient Russian.

Wang Ye asked her curiously: "You speak Russian well. Have you ever studied in Russia?"

Yu Xin immediately nodded and said: "Speaking of which, Director Mikhail and I are still alumni, in the same class. I graduated from the School of Communication of Moscow State University, so I am very familiar with you, but you probably don't know me. ."

As she spoke, she smiled a little shyly.

Wang Ye was stunned for a moment. He really didn’t expect to meet his “alumni” in Xiangjiang!

If what this girl said is true, then things are normal. No wonder she recognized him at a glance even if he "disguised himself".

After all, she is definitely the most famous alumnus of Moscow State University, and Yu Xin is in the same class as herself, so she must be very familiar with him. After all, her big photo has been hanging on the school's official website, and In the lobby of the school's main building...

With the addition of alumni, Yu Xin, who is a reporter, naturally pays special attention to herself.

However, as a young reporter who just graduated, she was able to get the qualification to cover this conference. It was obviously because of her relationship with her as an alumnus. Otherwise, the newspaper would definitely not be willing to give her such a precious spot. For young reporters who are just starting out in the industry.

 And Yu Xin will not stay in the hotel lobby at night waiting for the interview opportunity...

 Speaking of which, it’s not easy for this girl. It’s very difficult to stand out in such a competitive society like Xiangjiang.

Thinking of this, Wang Ye felt a little soft-hearted. If Yu Xin was not an alumnus, he might simply refuse the interview.

 But now, he thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Well, I can accept your interview, but..."

Before Wang Ye could finish speaking, Yu Xin clenched her fists and cheered. Apparently she was so happy that she lost her composure.

But she quickly controlled herself, bowed to Wang Ye quickly, and apologized profusely.

Wang Ye waved his hand carelessly and said with a smile: "I haven't finished speaking yet. In return for the interview, you will act as my tour guide and take me around the night view of Xiangjiang. We will chat while walking. Is this fair? "

Of course there is no problem. Originally, Yu Xin only thought of interviewing Wang Ye for a few minutes, but she never thought that she could also act as Wang Ye's tour guide and take him to see the night view of Xiangjiang, which would take a long time...

  What a surprise!

 So her head nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and she immediately followed Wang Ye and walked out of the hotel together.

 …

The Mandarin Oriental Hotel where Wang Ye is staying is located in the most prosperous area in Central, surrounded by many shopping malls such as Landmark Plaza and Prince's Building.

It’s now past eight o’clock in the evening, which is the busiest time, and the sidewalks are bustling with people.

And Xiangjiang deserves to be an international metropolis. People on the road are not just locals in Xiangjiang, but people from all over the world. People of all colors and languages ​​can be seen and heard.

Following Wang Ye, Yu Xin asked cautiously: "Director Mikhail, where should we go first?"

She has been talking to Wang Ye in Russian, but Wang Ye said to her in Chinese: "Let's talk in Chinese, as the Romans do. My Chinese is pretty good, no worse than your Russian, haha."

Yu Xin naturally knows that Wang Ye can speak fluent Chinese. After all, she has been paying attention to this "outstanding alumnus" when she was in college.

The reason why he keeps talking to Wang Ye in Russian is also out of etiquette. After all, "Mikhail" is a senior Russian official. As a reporter, if he wants to interview him, he must use the other person's native language to make it easier to get the other person's attention. recognition.

Now that Wang Ye said this, she naturally would not object, and immediately said in Chinese: "Okay, what should I call you outside? Or call you Director Mikhail..."

Wang Ye joked: "I heard that people here in Xiangjiang like to call people boss, so you can call me boss."

"Yes, boss! Where should we go next? There are many large shopping malls nearby. Do you want to take a stroll? Or should we go to the port and take a look at the night view of Victoria Harbor?" Yu Xin said mischievously.

Wang Ye thought for a while, shook his head and said, "We won't go to the port. Let's just walk along the overpass and sidewalks to see the smell of fireworks in the Xiangjiang River. It's best to also see the lives of ordinary people."

Wang Ye didn’t really want to inspect Xiangjiang when he came out this time. He really just wanted to hang out, like an ordinary person...

If he really wanted to conduct an investigation, there was no need for him to go out personally. He could directly send a professional investigation team to come and "station" for a month. Then he could submit an extremely detailed investigation report to him when he returned. The contents contained in it were absolutely necessary. Much more detailed than what he saw for himself...

Yu Xin rolled her eyes, moved closer, and asked in a low voice: "Boss, do you want to see the lives of ordinary people? How about... go to my house and have a look. My family is the most ordinary Xiangjiang family, and it should be somewhat representative." .”

Wang Ye was stunned for a moment and hesitated: "Is it convenient? Your family..."

 In fact, he wanted to ask whether Yu Xin lived alone or with his family. If he lived with a family, it would be easier to tell, and he could actually go and have a look.

 But if Yu Xin lives alone and she invites herself as a guest, then it may be "with bad intentions"...

 As a boy who is single outside, he must pay attention to safety and protect himself!

Probably sensing Wang Ye's thoughts, Yu Xin quickly explained: "I live with my parents. The house at home is not big and the space is a bit small. However, Xiangjiang is also famous for its expensive housing prices. The houses are all so small.”

Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, okay...

He smiled and said: "That's good, but it won't disturb your parents' rest, it's so late."

Yu Xin shook her head and said: "It doesn't matter, we all go to bed very late. At this time, my mother must be watching soap operas again, and my father should be on the phone with clients. Oh, my mother is a full-time housewife, and my father is I am a real estate agent who sells luxury homes. I have dealt with many luxury homes, but unfortunately I cannot afford them."

From her description, the family is indeed an ordinary Xiangjiang family. Maybe the economic conditions are a little better than ordinary people, but not much better.

Wang Ye pondered for a moment and then said: "Let's find a quieter cafe to have a cup of coffee first and let you finish the interview. Then we will send you home and pay a visit to your home."

This arrangement is quite reasonable. After all, it is inconvenient to conduct interviews after arriving at Yuxin’s home.

Wang Ye couldn't talk in front of Yu Xin's parents, "What positive changes will Russia's accession to the WTO bring to the world economy?" "What are the differences between the United States and Russia on the issue of WTO accession?" How about the meeting”…

The occasion seemed so inappropriate.

 …

The two of them found a relatively quiet cafe on the roadside, went in, ordered a cup of coffee each, and started a less formal interview. After all, there was still work to be done.

 During the interview, Wang Ye was mainly talking, while Yu Xin held a voice recorder and asked questions from time to time.

What Wang Ye said was relatively formal and official, focusing on the necessity and importance of Russia's accession to the WTO, and what benefits it would bring to WTO member states after joining.

As for the issue of differences with Europe and the United States, he said less. He only expressed confidence that he would sign formal bilateral agreements with Europe and the United States before this formal WTO meeting and complete the WTO accession process that has been delayed for more than ten years...

 It only took less than twenty minutes for the interview to end. The two of them walked out of the cafe and prepared to visit Yu Xin's home.

Standing on the roadside, Wang Yexiao asked: "Is your home far from here? Is it more convenient to ask the hotel to send a car or take a taxi or take the subway? By the way, before I go, I want to buy a gift. This is the first time I go to someone else's house. It’s not polite to visit empty-handed.”

Yu Xin pursed her lips, but did not stop her. She just said: "You can come to my house as a guest. This has already made my house shine. If you want a gift, just buy a bunch of flowers."

Wang Ye didn't deliberately "show" his financial resources on this kind of thing. He just bought a bottle of red wine and a bouquet of flowers. The red wine was not very expensive. It cost more than 2,000 Hong Kong dollars. It could only be regarded as ordinary. Bar.

Then he and Yu Xin stopped at the roadside and hailed a taxi and went straight to the community where Yu Xin's home was located.

 …

Yu Xin’s home is not far from Central. It takes about twenty minutes by taxi to get there.

This is an ordinary community, with Xiangjiang's iconic densely packed high-rise residential buildings standing in the community. According to Yu Xin, in this community, the house price has reached as high as 80,000 Hong Kong dollars!

According to the exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars against US dollars at that time, the housing prices in this community were as high as US$10,000 per square meter!

 It’s quite outrageous…

You must know that at the same time, housing prices in major capitals and international metropolises such as Moscow only reached US$3,000 to US$4,000 per square meter, which is much lower than here in Xiangjiang.

Moreover, the high-end apartments in Moscow are much better than this ordinary community in terms of environment and building quality.

Of course, Wang Ye also knows that even such a high price is actually at a historically low level for Xiangjiang.

 After the 2008 financial crisis is over, there will be a real surge in housing prices in Xiangjiang!

The price of a community in an area like Yu Xin's home can easily reach HKD 200,000 to 300,000 per square meter in the future...

 Hong Kong is no joke that every inch of land is valuable!

 …

Take the small elevator to the twenty-sixth floor.

 “This is my home.”

With that said, Yu Xin pressed the doorbell, and the door quickly opened, revealing the face of a middle-aged woman who looked somewhat similar to Yu Xin. She should be Yu Xin's mother.

After taking a look at Wang Ye, a smile appeared on the middle-aged woman's face.

I have to say that Wang Ye's image is still very "handsome". The young man is tall, handsome, gentle and elegant, and the temperament developed by living in a high position for a long time makes him look so prominent and dazzling no matter where he appears!

“Yuxin, this is your... friend, come in.” Yuxin’s mother said with a smile on her face.

Wang Ye also called "Auntie" politely and sent flowers and red wine in his hand, which made the smile on Yu Xin's mother's face even brighter.

After entering the room, Wang Ye looked around and found that it was indeed very small. The living room was only about ten square meters, with barely enough room for a small double sofa and a small coffee table, and next to it was a small dining table.

If you are a bit fatter, you have to be very careful when turning around in this living room. No wonder people in Xiangjiang are generally thin...

 “Where’s dad?” Yu Xin asked her mother.

"He was on the phone in the room. He made endless calls all day long, and I didn't see him selling a few houses!" Yu Xin's mother said dissatisfied.

 I just discovered that Chapter 1044 has been blocked. It seems that the things I have written recently are a bit sensitive. Hey, I don’t dare to write anything anymore. I still can’t avoid being blocked and it gives me a headache...
