Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 896: Toasting, not eating, drinking and punishing

Like most energy companies, Siberia Coal Group's headquarters are located in Moscow.

On a street southwest of the city center, there is a small red building that doesn't look very eye-catching from the outside.

It is only seven stories high, made of red bricks, and surrounded by iron fences, which is very low-key.

But there is a bronze plaque next to the gate, which says "Siberian Coal".

There is a row of identical BMW [-] Series parked in the open space in the yard, which should be the official vehicles provided by the group company to the senior managers.

Through this small detail, it can still be seen that this company is quite rich.

On the top floor of the small red building, which is the seventh floor, there is a huge office.

Menichenko was frowning tightly, looking at an old man with gray hair in front of him.

"Mr. Konstantin, once again, the Siberian Coal Company is not for sale!
Not for sale now and never for sale!
Moreover, this meeting is out of respect for you, but I don't want to hear any more words from you that hurt our mutual feelings. "

Obviously, this gray-haired old man is Constantine.

He just asked his assistant to contact Menichenko yesterday, saying that he was in Moscow and wanted to visit Menichenko, but he didn't mention anything about the acquisition on the phone.

Today, Menichenko would have welcomed him with a smile.

As a result, as soon as he sat down, Konstantin said bluntly that he wanted to acquire the Siberian Coal Group, which made Menichenko stunned for a long time before he could react.

But he didn't want to tear himself apart, so he had to politely decline, saying that he is not short of money now, and he has just integrated the domestic coal industry, and he still wants to make a big splash, so it is impossible to sell the group company.

But Konstantin didn't seem to understand, and he said again that he still wanted to acquire the Siberia Coal Group.

This made Menichenko a little annoyed, and said the above words.

…………

Constantine sat there with a smile on his face, not at all angry at being rejected.

He looked at Menichenko with a smile and said:
"Mr. Menichenko, I still suggest that you think about it carefully, and don't easily reject the kindness from a friend.

Maybe I can remind you that today's Russia is not ten years ago, and not everyone is qualified to run an energy business.

There are too many examples in front of us, just look at what the energy oligarchs who were once prosperous for a while are doing now.

Some committed suicide in fear of crime, some went into exile, and some went to jail.

The smarter ones, like Abramovich and Khovchenko, have accurate judgments on the situation.

Either they retired, or they transferred out their equity, so they are living comfortably now and have no worries at all. "

Hearing these words, Menichenko's heart trembled.

It's not that he doesn't pay attention to what happened in China in the past few years, but he cares very much!
It's just that he won Kasyanov's "friendship" a few years ago, and he was very low-key in his work, so it went smoothly, and no one paid him any attention.

However, Kasyanov stepped down!
Now he is trying desperately to seek refuge in the Silavik Group.

Menichenko is very smart. He knows that the largest force in the country is the Silavik Group represented by the Kremlin. As long as he can get the approval of the Kremlin, he will be truly safe and secure.

Besides, I am just a businessman and have no political ambitions at all.

So he didn't think he was in any danger.

Those oligarchs who were "rectified" were not all punished for political reasons...

But he never expected that when he was at his weakest, someone would take advantage of the fire and offer to buy his own Siberia Coal Group!
Hearing the threatening meaning in Konstantin's words, Menichenko narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at him a few times.

Of course, Constantine kept his face and heart beating, and his heart was not empty at all, and he looked at him with a smile on his face.

Menichenko grinned with a hint of sarcasm, and asked:
"If I just don't agree, what are you going to do?

I am a law-abiding citizen and have British nationality. If I dare to mess around, I will sue the international court! "

In fact, he was just trying to hold on and refused to accept his softness. Although he had never dealt with Constantine, an old fox, he had heard some news about Constantine to some extent.

A few years ago, Constantine was relatively low-key and had been developing in Petersburg.

He is mainly engaged in the business of telecommunications and communication, and he has a lot of shares in the two major domestic communication groups.

But it has not entered the energy field, and it cannot even be called an oligarch.

But in the past two years, a Romanov family suddenly appeared, which surprised many people.

Although Rosiana, not Constantine, inherited the Grand Duke of Romanov, it also means that Constantine is also the heir of the Romanov family, a descendant of the Tsar!
But so what if it is the queen of the tsar, can this thing be worth billions of dollars worth of assets of the Siberia Coal Group!

As for the relationship between the Romanov family and the Kremlin...

Menichenko isn't so sure yet.

Perhaps this relationship is the reason why Constantine came to talk to himself about the acquisition today!

But relying on this alone to make Menichenko bow his head and obediently sell the Siberian Coal Group at a low price is not realistic.

After all, this is a giant company worth billions or even tens of billions of dollars!
At the very least, he should resist.

If in the end Ke Gong really shot at him because of this matter, and he really couldn't bear it anymore, then it's not too late to bow his head...

But now, I can't "kneel down" so quickly!
…………

Konstantin was not in a hurry to answer when he heard Menichenko's question, but just picked up the coffee cup on the table and took a small sip.

Complimented: "The coffee is good."

Menichenko was not in the mood to discuss the quality of coffee with him. He lay back on the back of the sofa, crossed his arms across his chest, and remained silent.

Putting down the coffee cup, Konstantin took out a folder with a lambskin cover from the briefcase he brought with him, and pushed it in front of Menichenko.

Said: "This is a purchase offer, you can take a look first and think about it."

Menichenko stood up abruptly, and was about to utter abusive words with his eyes wide open, but Konstantin also stood up.

He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take my leave first, and wait for good news from your side.

However, as a person who is a few years older than you, I can barely be called a senior in the business world, and I will give you a word of advice.

That is, do not do things impulsively, and keep rational no matter what the situation is.

Don't let anger get to your head.

Maybe there was a good result originally, but once impulsive, it couldn't end.

Don't toast, don't eat, eat fine wine..."

After finishing speaking, Constantine laughed, turned around and walked out of the office.

Behind Menichenko, he pursed his lips hard and swallowed the swear words he was about to say.

He bent down to pick up the folder, opened it and took a look, and the eye-catching quotation came into view.

"30 billion dollars"!
Whole-owned acquisition of Siberia Coal Group, all shares!
How to say this price, it is higher than what Menichenko imagined, but it is a bit far from the real value of the Siberian Coal Group...

Although the Siberian Coal Group can develop to the scale it is today, Menichenko has indeed taken advantage of the loopholes that are not policies, and played many empty-handed and white-wolf tricks.

But his investment in real money is a full two to three billion dollars!
It can be said that almost all legal income and gray income have been invested in banking and foreign exchange exchange for so many years!

If it is sold at this price, the time, energy, and favor he spent on Siberia Coal Group for almost these years will be wasted!
Just barely get back the principal invested...

This coal group is the core asset of Menichenko now and in the future!

Even if there is a slight possibility, he is unwilling to sell it, let alone sell it at a price of 30 billion US dollars.

"Suka is not listed!"

Menichenko cursed angrily, grabbed the document and planned to throw it out.

However, the arm had already been raised, but it stopped abruptly.

With his arms raised in the air for a long time, Menichenko seemed to have no strength, and sat down on the sofa dejectedly, as if he had no bones.

Because he remembered what Constantine said just before he left.

Don't let anger get to your head...

He wanted to see what tricks the other party could pull off, how he could force himself to bow his head and give in!
At this time, Menichenko still had the illusion that if he could get through the relationship as soon as possible, he would embrace a new "thigh".

Then Constantine should not dare to force it!

………………

On Constantine's side, as soon as he went downstairs and got in the car, he dialed Wang Ye's number.

"Misha, I have already met and talked with Menichenko and made an offer, but he seems unwilling.

Next, it's up to you. "

Wang Ye's response was very brief, he just said: "I see."

Just hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Ye shook his head. If the old fox, Constantine, pulled him in, he would definitely not let himself enjoy the benefits.

But I have already prepared myself!
He picked up the red landline on the table and made a call...

…………

The next day, Wang Ye invited the remaining speakers and held an interim meeting.

In the past, only the speaker had the power to call an interim meeting, but now the first deputy speaker can also...

At the meeting, Wang Ye said solemnly:
"Shocking, comrades!

I just got a piece of information yesterday about some illegal financial departments in China laundering money through regulatory loopholes!

In this material, it is estimated that up to hundreds of billions of dollars are flowed abroad through illegal channels on the black market every year.

This is completely stealing the wealth of the country and the people! "

Several speakers looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing why Wang Ye suddenly brought up this matter.

It's not that they haven't heard of it at all, but that everyone knows it well, but because of the importance of it, no one dares to take the initiative to touch these things.

Just kidding, it is true that a huge amount of money has been lost, but the question is, who has so much money?
This question is worth pondering!
what's going on?

Now Speaker Mikhail plans to "declare war" against those people? !
No need!

To put it bluntly, even the uncle of Speaker Mikhail, the bank under him has done such business.

There is also his "good friend" Abu, how can he get so much money to buy luxury houses, clubs, yachts and private jets in London, which can easily cost hundreds of millions of dollars!

How did the money get out...

…………

Gryzlov was also a little uncertain about what Wang Ye meant. He coughed and asked, "Deputy Speaker Mikhail, what do you mean..."

Wang Ye patted the conference table with a "slap", and said righteously:

"Perhaps this happened in the past due to some special reasons.

We don't need to hold individuals accountable, but the banking institutions involved must take responsibility for knowingly breaking the law!
I propose to carry out an investigation of the relevant domestic financial institutions, especially those that are relatively rampant, and we must rectify them, and kill them to warn others! "

Gryzlov immediately understood that Misha must be planning to trouble a certain bank!
I don't know who offended him by not opening his eyes...

But this has nothing to do with me!

He immediately said briskly:

"Deputy Speaker Mikhail's proposal is very good!
I also think that the domestic banks are too messy, especially some private banks, their currency exchange outlets are all over the street, and the exchange rate can change several times a day!
It made everyone panic, thinking that our ruble has been depreciating.

I raise my hands to support! "

It has nothing to do with him, so let Mikhail make troubles, and it will not harm his own interests anyway.

Now that I sell him a favor, I don't know when in the future, this favor will be returned.

Not to mention Zhirinov, he also knew very well that Wang Ye could not have gone to Khovchenko's bank, it must be some other bank.

Then I must support myself.

As for Kolov...

It doesn't matter whether he supports it or not.

Because of the four speakers, all three agreed...

…………

There is no need for such a thing to go to the Duma Congress.

After the several speakers reached an agreement, Wang Ye directly drafted the paper in the name of the Duma and sent it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, asking the other party to send someone to assist.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs was in charge of Koro Koli, and it was an old friend of Wang Ye. In addition, when the budget was passed this year, Wang Ye sold a big favor and added a large amount of budget funds to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

This greatly increased Koro Koli's prestige in the Ministry of Internal Affairs!

Such a great favor, do you think Koro Koli can't keep it in his heart.

Now that Wang Ye needs his help, Korokoli can't wait to lead the team himself!

He immediately dispatched elite troops and let his cronies lead the team, and told his cronies to follow the instructions of Speaker Mikhail in everything.

As long as it doesn't involve an armed coup d'état, there's no need to ask yourself for instructions, just execute the order directly!
