Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 944 The rain is coming
In the Duma building, every congressman who encountered Wang stopped and said hello to him.

Wang Ye also smiled and nodded, and walked towards his office without stopping.

Behind him, everyone's eyes are a bit complicated...

As soon as she arrived at the office, the assistant Yi Lianna hurried in, stood in front of Wang Ye's desk, and reported:
"Boss, just received the news that Konov had contact with almost all the forces in the first faction yesterday, but no one has disclosed what they talked about.

Of course, he just wanted those people to cast a veto at today's meeting.

The most critical question is, will those members of the Kravico Group really choose to support Luzhkov at this critical moment?
Their faction and the Moscow faction are old enemies!

It stands to reason that after they contacted Konov, they should have sternly refused, and then released the news that they would never meet Pauluzhkov..."

Anyone who cared about Konov's actions yesterday, of course, saw it, and everyone knew what he wanted to do.

After all, the Moscow faction is about to face annihilation. If he, the core figure of the faction, has not made any moves, that is the most abnormal!

Even if the rabbit bites people in a hurry, let alone a veteran force in the political arena like them, the power they burst out in the face of desperation must be amazing.

But the question now is whether he has achieved the expected results and whether he has negotiated terms with those members of the Kravico Group. This is the most important thing!
Normally speaking, if you have a lot of people like him to talk to, the content of the conversation will be revealed more or less.

But the strange thing is that all the faction bosses who met Konov were silent, and no trace of the wind was revealed.

Yi Lianna was much more nervous than Wang Ye these two days.

As Wang Ye's "chief assistant", she is mainly responsible for government affairs. She also understands that the voting results of the Duma Congress this time will have a great impact on her boss, so she is naturally very concerned.

Yelena had been paying attention yesterday when Konov started his activities.

She also collects information through some channels, and wants to know the effect of Konov's activities, so that the boss can know in advance, have a psychological preparation or make a correct response.

But unfortunately, after spending a lot of thought, there was still no useful information.

Because of this, Yi Lianna felt very abnormal and came to report to Wang Ye early in the morning.

…………

Wang Ye nodded, expressing that he knew, motioned for Elena to go out, and then he buried himself in a document again.

This is the planning plan for building a commercial plaza in the central area of ​​the CBD submitted by the Yukos Group.

Of course, it is only a preliminary plan now, and the final plan has not yet been determined.

So much money has been invested, and the positioning of this CBD central area is the world's top business district!
Therefore, Wang Ye has very high requirements for every building to be built!
The architectural style should be distinct, with enough strong features to impress people at a glance, and even the architectural specifications, materials, and facades of the buildings are all benchmarked against world-class standards.

To sum it up in one sentence, the central area of ​​the CBD may not be the largest in the world, and the companies that settle there may not be the world's first-class, but the buildings in the area must definitely compete for the world's first!

This is also no way.

Because the companies brought by Wang Ye are already the top companies in Damao, and foreign companies are not very interested in investing here.

So if you want to make this CBD have enough bright spots, or to be able to sell it, you can only find a way in terms of architecture.

Wang Ye is not only the person who promotes the construction of the CBD central area, he is also the major shareholder or chairman of several large group companies.

Therefore, these large group companies are quite concerned about this matter, and have set up special offices to be responsible for the preparation and construction of buildings in the CBD area.

During this period of time, the government was engaged in demolition, land leveling, and various formalities and permits.

The major group companies have not been idle, and have started to contact world-renowned architectural design companies to come up with architectural plans according to their respective capital contributions and the area of ​​​​the land they "bought".

Yukos Group is the most efficient, and the first version of the architectural plan has been sent to Wang Ye's office.

Wang Ye took a general look, and had to say that this plan highlights a "rich and powerful"!
The biggest feature of the Yukos building is one word, tall!

It is necessary to build the tallest building in Europe, and it can even be ranked in the top two in the world!

Why it is the top two, because the Burj Khalifa in Dubai has already started construction and is expected to be put into use in five years.

This thing is more than 800 meters high, who can compare...

You know, when the construction of the Burj Khalifa started, the tallest building that had been built in the world was less than 450 meters.

This is equivalent to directly doubling the standard of the world's tallest building!

However, the Burj Khalifa's height of more than 800 meters also has "moisture", because its standard height is 828 meters, but the roof height is actually only 585 meters.

This means that more than 200 meters of it is not the actual building height, but just a long spire.

If calculated according to the real height, that is, the height of the roof, the buildings in Shanghai, Jinmen, and Pengcheng in a certain big country in the future will actually be taller than the Burj Khalifa!

Of course, including the building to be built by the Yukos Group, the roof height will be higher than that of the Burj Khalifa, but the standard height is not that high.

…………

Yukos Group plans to build a skyscraper with a height of about 600 meters (roof height). When it is completed, it will be second only to the Burj Khalifa in the world, and it will definitely be the tallest building in Europe.

Even in ten years or more this year, there should be no second building in Europe that can exceed this height.

Of course, it is not ruled out that other companies in the central area of ​​the Moscow CBD will build a taller building. After all, the plans of other group companies have not been submitted at this time.

The reason why Wang Ye was interested in this plan was because a design concept drawing in the plan caught his eyes.

In this design concept drawing, a towering skyscraper is covered with transparent crystal glass from top to bottom, and its shape is very novel.

It is not tower-shaped or rectangular like those tall buildings in the world at that time, and has elegant curves.

The lower part of the building is still quite satisfactory, but the curve starts to tighten from the middle, and then expands outwards at the top, showing a shape with thick ends at both ends and thin at the middle, which is rare.

And when Wang Ye looked at this building, he always felt as if he had seen it somewhere before...

But when he saw the name of this design concept drawing, he suddenly realized why this building looked so familiar.

The designer of this building named it "Moscow Zun"!
And for this name, there is a detailed explanation.

It is said that "Zun" is a kind of wine vessel used in ancient ceremonies in Eastern countries, representing supreme authority and dignity, and there is a saying of "Ninth Five-Year Zun"...

In short, the moral is very good!
Wang Ye checked the design company of this plan, which is Farrell Architects from London, which is also a world-renowned design company.

And the designer leading this project is indeed a Chinese designer.

It is no wonder that it is difficult for ordinary foreigners to integrate the ancient and very Chinese-style utensils such as "zun" into the architecture.

However, the Chinese designer dared to come up with such a design plan, which was bold enough.

After all, Yukos is a purely Russian company, and this building is to be built in the central area of ​​Moscow. The general style should be more European and American, right...

Shaking his head, Wang Ye could only lament that this Chinese-American designer was so lucky that he just happened to meet the real decision maker.

If it was an old man, he might not understand what "Zun" is, and he might not be able to appreciate this design either.

After thinking for a while, he took up a pen and gave instructions on this planning plan, "The design concept is good, and it can be communicated in depth."

With the instructions of his big boss, it is basically a certainty.

As long as there are no major accidents in the follow-up, then this design plan should be able to be implemented smoothly.

Perhaps in another three to five years, the "Moscow Zun" will stand in the center of Moscow...

…………

There was still a while before the meeting started, and Wang Ye was hurrying to approve the official documents when the red landline phone on the table rang.

Picking up the microphone, Gobrev's familiar voice came over.

"Misha, there seems to be something wrong this time. Have you heard about what happened yesterday? Why didn't you see what you did to deal with it? This kind of thing can't be taken lightly, because it will lead to more serious consequences!"

Wang Ye sighed, why does everyone seem to think that the result of today's meeting is bad for him?
But V could tell that Gebrev was also concerned about himself.

He smiled and responded unhurriedly: "I heard that this is not normal. People can't sit still, they still have to resist. But I don't think it's a big problem, your faction and Moscow The faction is an old enemy, can it be said that the MPs of your faction will turn their backs and support Luzhkov today?"

Gobrev seemed to be stopped by Wang Ye's question, and he didn't speak for a long time.

After a long while, he sighed, "Hey, our faction...

You are not an outsider, to tell you the truth, the internal situation is also very complicated, people are not in harmony!

If the benefits given by Luzhkov and the others are large enough, it is really hard for our faction members to say how they will vote.

And you have to know that regarding this vote, there is actually no unified statement within our faction, and the Kremlin has not issued any orders, so it all depends on everyone's self-awareness..."

Herein lies the problem!
Dealing with Luzhkov and the Moscow faction this time is a "personal grievance" between Wang Ye and them, and theoretically has nothing to do with the Kraveko Group.

That is to say, the personal relationship between Wang Ye, the Kremlin and Gryzlov is relatively good, and the Kremlin has long since looked down on Luzhkov, so they gave him tacit support.

But even with this level of support, it is impossible for the Kremlin to stand up and make a public statement.

Of course, it is impossible to call on everyone within the Kravico Group to vote for Wang Ye and stand on the same side as Wang Ye.

However, there are many hills within the Hilavik Group, each with its own interests, and their thinking may not be the same as that of the Kremlin.

Perhaps in their view, Wang Ye and the Moscow faction will lose both sides, and it may be more in the interest of their faction!

After all, everyone can see that in the past few years, the faction led by Wang Ye has developed too rapidly, especially the influence in Duma has surpassed the first faction led by Gryzlov.

According to this development trend, if Wang Ye did not encounter any setbacks, wouldn't he be in the first row in the next Duma general election?

And the number of seats in the Hilavik Group will be further reduced!
From this point of view, perhaps Wang Ye's threat to the Hilavik Group is greater than that of the Moscow faction...

…………

Wang Ye and Gobrev were silent for a few seconds at the same time, everything was kept silent.

Some things don't need to be said clearly, everyone understands, but there is also nothing to do about it.

Even people who can be said to have stood at the pinnacle of power like Wang Ye and Yifu can't really do whatever they want, and there will be a lot of constraints.

Even sometimes it is necessary to make concessions and compromises!
After hanging up Gobrev's phone call, it was almost time for the meeting.

Wang Ye sorted out his mood, stood up, and walked briskly out of the office.

Yi Lianna, who had been waiting outside the door, hurriedly followed behind him, holding folders and notebooks in her arms, and walked to the meeting hall on the first floor.

According to the usual practice, several speakers like Wang Ye and Gryzlov arrived on time, while ordinary members would enter the venue earlier.

Today was no exception. When Wang Ye arrived at the conference hall and walked up to the rostrum from the side door, the more than 400 seats in the audience were almost full, and all the MPs were in place.

On the rostrum, the other three speakers were also seated.

Seeing Wang Ye's arrival, both Zhirinov and Gryzlov nodded to him, while Konov pretended not to see him and didn't look up.

However, the expressions of Zhirinov and Gryzlov were not relaxed. Both of them were worried, and they obviously had something on their minds.

Gryzlov didn't say anything, and after Wang Ye took his seat, he rapped the gavel in his hand, and with a crisp "bang", the meeting was officially started!
Today's meeting has a clear theme and only one agenda.

That is about whether Luzhkov's dismissal can be formally effective through a Duma vote.

According to the procedure, Gryzlov announced that the representative of the joint investigation team, that is, Dania, would speak on stage to explain to all Duma members why the removal of Governor Luzhkov was initiated and what crimes he was suspected of committing.

Under the gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes, Dania, wearing a dark suit, wearing flat leather shoes, and with short hair, walked quickly onto the podium...
