Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

He said more than a few words, and watched the atmosphere become more and more tense. This was not in line with the purpose of inviting two people to dinner today.

Therefore, despite being retorted by Gryzlov, the adoptive father still smiled and relaxed the atmosphere.

He said: "That's true. In fact, not only you and Meddev are very happy to work with Misha, but also me. This guy has helped me solve a lot of difficult problems. I really want to say Get up, how do I feel that it doesn’t matter who is sitting in my position, as long as Misha is here..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, as if he had some realization.

Meddev and Gryzlov also looked at each other, picked up the knife and fork at the same time in a tacit understanding, and started eating.

Because after the three people discussed for a long time, they suddenly discovered that it didn't seem to matter who was sitting in the Kremlin Palace, because the most critical person in Moscow's political arena has now become Mikhail!

As long as Mikhail is here, no matter who wins this election, it will not have much impact on the development of the country...

It's quite ironic when you look at it this way.

The most important person did not participate in the general election, and those who fought hard to the death could not affect the overall situation at all...

Of course, although they are aware of this fact, Meddev and Grezlov have not given up the idea of ​​​​election. After all, they have already been unable to help themselves until now. The election is not only related to their political future, but also It is also related to the future of the large number of people behind them who support them!

If they suddenly say that they want to give up now, it will basically be equivalent to completely ruining their political career, and they may even be retaliated by those who originally supported them...

…………

After finishing the meal without any taste, Gryzlov stood up and left, but Meddev stayed. He still wanted to talk about something with his adoptive father and Gazev.

It was obvious that the three of them were standing together, while Gryzlov was standing on the opposite side of them.

Watching Gryzlov leaving, Meddev had a gloomy face and said angrily:

"unacceptable!

Gryzlov doesn't even listen to you now. Does he really think that after being the Speaker of the Duma for a few years, he can really be equal to you in the faction?

Looking at the seats in the Duma this term, our faction originally had all the advantages in the Duma, but in the end he lost them all.

If such a mediocre person really wins the general election, then I am really worried about the future development of the country..."

Although these remarks are complaints, they also truthfully reflect the views of Meddev, the Kremlin and some people in the Shilavik Group. Otherwise, even with the support of the Kremlin, Meddev would not be qualified to compete with Gray. Zlov competes.

After all, their qualifications, connections, and status within the faction are very different!

Gryzlov is one of the giants in Moscow politics, and has been one of the top people for more than ten years. As for Meddev, who knew him a few years ago...

It is because Gryzlov lost too many seats in the last Duma election, which resulted in this Duma being firmly controlled by Wang Ye, so some people within the Shilavik Group were quite vocal about this, thinking that It's Grezlov who is too incompetent.

Therefore, when the Kremlin introduced Meddev as a candidate to represent the faction during the general election, there was not much opposition.

Even Grezlov also participated in the general election and had been working together in private for so long, so he was evenly matched with Meddev. Even within the faction, his number of supporters was not as high as Meddev's.

Otherwise, his poll support rate would not be tied with Meddev. Don't forget, there is also Zhirinov's faction on Gryzlov's side who is joining forces with him to run for office. Their influence is Not too small either.

In other words, Meddev has the support of most of the members of the Shilavik Group and the support of the Kremlin, while Gryzlov has the support of a small half of the members of the Shilavik Group and the full support of the Zhirinov faction. In this way, the two sides ended up in a tie.

As for Rosiana, she has her own royalists, old and new Moscow factions, family influence, and some members of the Wangye faction. It can be said that the factions supporting her are relatively complicated. Together, these are currently able to compete with Medje. The husband and Gryzlov fought against each other.

After listening to Meddev's complaint, the adoptive father smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying anything.

Gebrev sighed and responded: "What can be done? Our faction was originally a merger of several parties. It was originally to win the election, so we could unite as one. Now we are in power. In the past ten years, everyone is no longer what they were before, and each has its own interests and demands, so it is difficult to unite everyone again."

In fact, to put it simply, "it is easier to conquer a country than to defend it"!

When several factions jointly formed the Shilawik Group at the beginning, everyone was "poor and ignorant", and their biggest desire was naturally to win the election and become the ruling party.

This is why we can eliminate some internal discordant voices, unite and twist into one, and speak to the outside world in unison.

But now, each faction within the faction "occupies" some important positions, each with its own ideas. Some vested interests will firmly follow the Kremlin and support the candidates proposed by the Kremlin.

Another group of people who are not satisfied with the status quo choose to support Gryzlov, because they understand that choosing to support Meddev is just the icing on the cake, while supporting Gryzlov is giving timely help!

Anyway, you support whoever you support, so why not choose a candidate who can benefit you even more if he wins the election...

Meddev patted the dining table and gritted his teeth and said: "It's a mess! I think it's time for our faction to clean up and integrate. Those who only care about their own interests and ignore the interests of the faction should no longer be retained!"

The adoptive father felt the same way and nodded slightly, but he had no time to do this.

Although he was re-elected for two terms, due to his weak foundation and the country's internal and external difficulties in the past few years, all aspects were in chaos. Therefore, he had no energy to sort out the faction's internal affairs. Of course, he did not dare to easily disturb the faction's internal affairs. After all, he had to rely on They use the support of factions to deal with "foreign enemies".

In the past few years, the situation has been eased. The economy has developed very well, and a new world has been opened in diplomacy. It is supposed to be the time when he can flex his muscles to rectify the faction, but unfortunately his term has expired...

The reason why he chose to push out his "junior brother" Meddev was to prepare himself to run again in a few years, because he felt that there were still many things he had not had time to do!

Meddev is considered a transitional person, so he does not allow anyone to disrupt his plan, not even Grezlov!

…………

While Meddev and the three of them were still discussing how to rectify the faction, Gryzlov's car had already left the Kremlin Palace and was driving along the long street in the direction of his home.

Since he was coming to the Kremlin Palace for a banquet tonight, he did not bring any security personnel with him. Only a driver and an assistant were in the car.

It was already getting late, and it was snowing heavily today and it was cold, so there were not many vehicles on the road, and almost no pedestrians could be seen.

The dim street lights illuminated the heavy snowflakes flying in the sky. There was a vast expanse of white everywhere, and a thick layer of snow had already accumulated on the road.

Because the road surface was a bit slippery, the driver didn't drive very fast.

Gryzlov leaned back on the backrest of the rear seat and closed his eyes to rest. The scene during the meal was still swirling in his mind. He knew very well that he would not be able to get any help from the Kremlin.

Including today's dinner, the purpose is to persuade myself to give up the election and support Meddev instead.

But why!

I have been in politics for decades, and it can be said that it has been a smooth journey. I even had the opportunity to aspire for the highest position. Unfortunately, the person did not choose me at that time, but chose the unknown current Kremlin.

For the sake of the overall interests of the faction, I also endured the humiliation and tried my best to cooperate with his work, and have been conscientiously safeguarding the interests of the faction.

Now that he is about to retire, he actually wants to promote another "little kid" whose qualifications are completely inferior to his own. This makes Gryzlov unbearable.

He didn't participate in the general election at first, just because Gryzlov also understood that his influence in the faction has been declining in recent years. On his own, even if he participated in the general election, he would not be able to win over enough people to support him. .

However, Zhirinov's joining changed everything. He finally had the confidence to stand up and convinced many members of the faction that he did have hope of hitting that position, so they chose to support him.

Now that the general election is about to officially begin, his support rate is on par with Meddev and Rosiana, but Gryzlov believes that as long as this situation can be maintained, he will be the ultimate winner!

You must know that there is still a silent majority in society. They may not make much noise in normal times and just immerse themselves in work and live a down-to-earth life. But when it comes to voting in elections, they will be more inclined to choose themselves who have sufficient qualifications and high reputation!

After all, I didn’t serve as Speaker for so many years for nothing...

Moreover, Zhirinov also promised himself that Hovchenko would also provide him with strong financial support!

Maybe he still can't compare to Rosiana in terms of campaign funds. After all, she comes from a wealthy family and has a good husband...

But there is absolutely no problem in overpowering Meddev.

…………

Gryzlov, who was full of random thoughts, suddenly heard a dull sound of "boom boom boom...", and then the car suddenly jumped forward, throwing his whole body onto the backrest, almost reaching his neck.

Before he could react and ask what happened, he heard the assistant in the front row exclaim.

"Speaker, there are gunmen..."

Just as he exclaimed, there was another violent sound from the rear window of the car, as if many small stones were hitting the rear window glass at high speed.

Gryzlov turned around and saw through the rear window a Lada chasing his car. Two men with black hoods leaned out of the car window, each holding a child. He fired an AK rifle at his car.

But why wasn’t my car window glass shot through?

Gryzlov suddenly remembered that he had just replaced a bulletproof car some time ago, and this was given to him by Mikhail.

Fortunately, I changed to this car. If I was still driving the ordinary Range Rover before, wouldn't I have to explain myself here today...

The power of the big Land Rover is still very strong, and the driver almost stepped on the accelerator into the engine, so the black Range Rover galloped forward on the empty street like a giant beast. The car behind must have poor power, and was A distance away.

Coupled with this burst of gunshots, the noise was very loud. It must have attracted the attention of the police patrolling not far away. Sirens were already sounding and heading this way.

So the car the gunman was riding in couldn't do anything about it, made a decisive turn, gave up the pursuit, and got into a small alley.

Seeing that he was safe, Gryzlov was frightened for a moment, and there were dense beads of sweat on his forehead.

Who is this!

I want my own life...

…………

The news that Grezlov was shot spread throughout Moscow in an instant, as if he had wings!

Wang Ye received the news immediately. It was a phone call from Gryzlov himself. When the call was made, Gryzlov was still in the car.

"Misha, I just met a gunman when I was preparing to go home on the road. Fortunately, you gave me this bulletproof car. Otherwise, I might not have the chance to make this call to you..."

As he said this, Gryzlov felt scared again.

Wang Ye was quite shocked when he heard this. Although he had encountered more dangerous things than this on more than one occasion, Gryzlov was different from him.

This is a well-known "good old guy" in the political arena. He usually doesn't have any hatred against others. How could he suddenly be shot...

He quickly asked: "Is the Speaker injured? How is the situation now?"

"It's okay. This car is really strong. The glass is not broken, haha. I have asked my assistant to call the police. Now I am going to go directly to the city bureau to call the police. Many police cars nearby are rushing here. There should be nothing wrong next. But I still haven’t figured out who wants my life!” As he spoke, Gryzlov gritted his teeth.

Wang Ye frowned and thought for a while, then said simply: "In this case, you go to the city bureau first, and I will go there later, and we will meet and chat. The most important thing is to ensure your safety, and then to catch the gunman. As long as we can catch When someone gets there, the whole thing will come to light.”

…………

After putting down the phone, Wang Ye put on his clothes and ordered his motorcade to prepare immediately and set off for the city bureau!

Because of the assassination of Gryzlov, Wang Ye became more cautious and brought two more security vehicles. There were more than a dozen large Land Rovers, and there were more than forty security personnel alone...

With this lineup, no one would dare to challenge him at all!
