Chapter 1136 Made up My Mind

Wang Ye thought for a moment and did not persuade Hovchenko anymore. He just smiled and said:

"It seems that uncle, you want to enjoy life like Abu, but he is more high-profile, and you are much more low-key.

That's fine, life is only a few decades, why do you have to make yourself so tired?

Besides, you don’t have to worry about money.

Hey, I wonder when I can completely retire and enjoy life like you. "

He must be thinking this!

But if he was really asked to retire now, Wang Ye would be reluctant to part with it...

After all, he has sacrificed so much over the years for his current position!

Maybe after ten or twenty years, when he really fulfills his wish and gets tired of government affairs, he will make a quick retreat and retire like Abramovich and Kovchenko, but it is definitely not now.

Kovchenko said with a hearty smile: "Actually, I didn't understand Abramovich's approach at first. I thought he was too timid! But after so many years, I realized that his choice was correct. He and I belong to the same type of people. He is a genius when it comes to making money in business, but he is really no match for you people when it comes to playing politics.”

Wang Ye showed a shy smile that he had not seen for a long time and said modestly: "I can't be said to be a political genius. I learned slowly after entering the Duma. Even now, I still have a lot to learn."

While they were chatting, Nova walked over quietly, leaned over and whispered: "Dinner is ready."

Wang Ye looked at Hovchenko, stood up and said, "Let's go, uncle, let's talk while eating."

"Haha, I have long heard that there is a secret living room in this office, but I have never been here. Please show me around later to satisfy my curiosity." Hovchenko joked.

Of course there is no problem. The living room inside was simply renovated before Wang Ye took office, and all the original furniture and appliances were replaced with new ones.

After having dinner together, Wang Ye personally sent Hovchenko out of the office, and the two hugged goodbye.

Although they didn't say it explicitly, both of them knew in their hearts that after this separation, they might not see each other again for some time.

If there is nothing important, Hovchenko will probably not return to Moscow again...

…………

After seeing off Hovchenko, Wang Ye did not go home. He then made an appointment to meet with someone.

The next guest is Agelina. She will return to Simferopol tomorrow, so Wang Ye must arrange time to get together with her. Otherwise, he has just taken office, and it will be very difficult for him to decide where he wants to go in the future. If it's inconvenient, then I don't know how long it will take to meet.

According to the agreed time, around nine o'clock in the evening, Ajielina was picked up by Nova herself.

After sending her sister to Wang Ye's office, Nova wisely did not follow her in, but stayed outside in her office to prevent anyone from disturbing her.

Of course, as long as it is not officially included in Wang Ye's schedule, it is impossible for anyone to come over at this time. That would be asking for trouble.

Seeing Ajielina, Wang Ye was still the same as before, with a happy smile on his face. The two hugged each other tightly and did not separate for a long time.

Wang Ye will not go back to the manor tonight, but will stay here.

What she told Rosiana was that she needed to take care of some official business and wouldn't go back until it was too late. Of course, Rosiana also knew very well why Wang Ye didn't go back today. Wasn't it because the woman from the Crimean Peninsula was here...

Although she felt a little unhappy, she didn't say anything. After all, she had known about Wang Ye and Ajielina for a long time. Even if she seriously calculated it, she was still the "third party"!

When she met Wang Ye, Ajielina was already Wang Ye's girlfriend. It was she who fought for love and snatched Wang Ye away from Ajielina.

So she actually felt guilty towards Ajielina and felt a little guilty...

…………

Ajielina happily told Wang Ye interesting stories about her daughter, and also turned on her mobile phone to show Wang Ye the various photos she took of her daughter.

The two cuddled together and smiled heartily from time to time while looking at the photos.

For the two of them, such warm moments are very rare. When dawn tomorrow, the two of them will return to their respective "roles".

However, the two of them still chatted about work without realizing it.

"Now Crimea is developing very well. International funds have also poured in in the past two years. Simferopol has almost become the financial center of Eastern Europe. Even Moscow has been robbed of its limelight." Wang Ye joked said.

Agelina nodded proudly, "Yes, compared to a few years ago, the entire Crimea has really undergone earth-shaking changes! Simferopol is positioned as a financial and trade center, and Yalta is a tourism and cultural center. Both cities have grown several times larger than before.

Especially in Yalta, during the peak tourist season, countless tourist groups come for sightseeing every day. All walks of life are prosperous in tourism, shopping, hotels, gambling, etc.

The old family home where my parents lived, the same one we had when we went back together, was acquired by a large real estate developer from Xiangjiang, and planned to be built into a large five-star hotel and shopping mall.

Originally, my parents were a little reluctant to move, but the compensation provided by the developer was indeed very generous. Not only did they build a residential building in the new city, but they also provided a large amount of cash, so they happily moved there. Over there at the new house..."

Speaking of the development of Crimea, Ajielina's eyes lit up.

That is her hometown, and it is because of her efforts that it has become prosperous today!

Although the work has been hard these years, watching her hometown get better day by day with her efforts is the best reward for Ajielina.

Wang Ye smiled and listened to Ajielina carefully.

Perhaps when he first invested in the Crimean Peninsula, his purpose was not so pure. In addition to helping Ajielina change her hometown, he also wanted to run it as his "base camp" to make a lot of political capital for himself!

Of course, you can also make a huge fortune by the way...

In fact, these goals have been achieved. Crimea Investment Company has long become the largest "landlord" in Crimea. It can be said that most of the land property rights in prime locations, including Simferopol and Yalta, are in the hands of Crimea Investment Company.

Most of the office buildings, hotels, shopping centers, resorts, etc. there were also invested and built by Crimea Investment Company. Of course, some of them were jointly invested with external funds. If you want to attract foreign investment, you can't eat alone.

Now, no one can tell how much Crimea Investment Company is worth!

Because many things are immeasurable and are still appreciating...

Wang Ye can't sell Crimea Investment Company's shares to others, so how much it is worth doesn't matter to him.

Early the next morning, Wang Ye and Ajielina got up and had breakfast together.

Then they left here before most of the Kremlin staff went to work. Wang Ye was not convenient to see her off in person, so he asked Nova to replace him.

The two sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, and they probably have something to say.

Next, it will be another busy day for Wang Ye...

Most of the guests who came to attend the inauguration ceremony have left. Everyone is very busy and can't stay here for too long.

But there is still an old acquaintance of Wang Ye who hasn't left, that is, Lee Boo-jin!

This time, she came to Moscow to attend Wang Ye's inauguration ceremony, and then stayed for two more days under the pretext of investigating Moscow's investment environment, in order to meet Wang Ye in private.

Don't get me wrong, she wanted to meet Wang Ye not for personal reasons, but because she really had something important to discuss.

"My father is in poor health, and it is estimated that they will soon start to determine the official successor to take charge of the group company. Currently, there are more people supporting my brother, and I can only get about 15% of the shares."

When they met, Li Fuzhen didn't bother to beat around the bush and said directly.

Wang Ye frowned slightly. He didn't know much about Samsung's affairs. Even in his previous life, he didn't have much interest in understanding the details of this company, so he didn't know in which year Samsung changed its leader.

Perhaps, because of his existence in this life, many things have changed differently.

Since Li Fuzhen said that her father's health is not good, it must be true. It seems that things over there need to be done as soon as possible.

So he asked in a deep voice: "What kind of help do you need from me?"

It is not difficult for Wang Ye to help Lee Boo-jin. If he can control Samsung Group through this woman, it will also be beneficial to Wang Ye's future layout.

Lee Boo-jin was also a little hesitant. When she encountered difficulties, her first reaction was to come to Wang Ye for help.

But she knew what to do and what kind of help Wang Ye needed. She could only say that she couldn't make up her mind for the time being...

If you want to defeat your competitors, the most direct and effective way is to eliminate him at the "physical level"!

But, he is her brother with the same father and mother, and Lee Boo-jin can't do this for a while...

Seeing her reaction, Wang Ye roughly guessed her thoughts and said with a smile:

"What is the current market value of Samsung Group?"

"One hundred and ten billion US dollars." Lee Boo-jin blurted out.

This market value is really not low!

In 2009, a company with a market value of over one hundred billion US dollars was definitely a giant in the world!

But it is also normal. Samsung has long been a giant. It is said that it accounts for about a quarter of South Korea's GDP. It is really outrageous.

Wang Ye thought about it and asked again: "Who are the top shareholders of your company? Oh, I mean the actual shareholders, not those on the public financial statements."

Because according to the financial statements, the Lee family actually only holds less than 3% of the shares of Samsung Group!

This is obviously unreasonable and unrealistic.

Wang Ye also knows that most of the shares of Samsung Group should be in the hands of Wall Street capital, but the Lee family definitely cannot have less than that pitiful 3%.

Of course, through the so-called AB structure and other settings, the Lee family has always firmly controlled the actual control of Samsung Group.

What Wang Ye wants to know now is how many shares are really in the hands of the Lee family.

Lee Boo-jin thought for a while, and then answered carefully: "It should be about 30%, including those held directly or indirectly by holding companies, and the rest are held by large foreign investment companies."

Wang Ye nodded, this is reasonable, it is normal for the Lee family to hold 30% of the shares of Samsung Group.

But this is a bit difficult.

Originally, Wang Ye planned to support Lee Boo-jin by directly acquiring Samsung Group shares held by some Wall Street investors.

But since the Lee family actually holds quite a few shares, this trick should not be very useful.

Even if he can get close to or even more than 50% of the shares, he may not be able to control the situation in the Samsung board of directors. After all, the equity structure is different, and with the same shares, people have more say!

Wang Ye spread his hands and said helplessly: "I am not a god, and I can't do everything. Since you feel embarrassed and don't want to use some methods, I can't think of a better way for the time being. Otherwise, you can work hard in front of your father and try to get his trust. That is the simplest and feasible way."

Yes, even if he sits in this position now, Wang Ye can't do whatever he wants, not to mention that Samsung is not in the territory of Russia. It is a bit difficult for Wang Ye to reach there...

Lee Boo-jin's face is very gloomy. She gritted her teeth and her chest rose and fell a little. It is obvious that she is making some kind of determination.

Without letting Wang Ye wait too long, Lee Boo-jin seemed to have made a decision. She looked up at Wang Ye and said in a low voice: "Then... use the most direct means!"

Before Wang Ye responded, Lee Boo-jin quickly added: "It would be best if he could be saved. Just make him lose the ability to take over."

It seems that she is not too heartless. She still remembers to save her brother's life. I wonder if her brother will be grateful to her after learning about this...

Wang Ye smiled faintly and said casually: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, let's do it. I will arrange someone to connect with you later. Someone will naturally do the rest. You just wait."

To be honest, this kind of thing is the simplest for Wang Ye.

Even if Lee Boo-jin's brother is the successor of a wealthy family, he has a large group of bodyguards when he goes in and out, but it is really useless. Wang Ye does not need to send out real "experts". He can just let the professionals from Wagner do it.

And Wagner himself is quite "good" at doing this kind of thing...

Li Fu left Moscow with great satisfaction. He thought that he would not have to wait too long for good news from there.

However, Wang Ye was too lazy to worry about such trivial matters, because the next two major events were the Duma election and the formation of a new cabinet.

Only when these two major events were implemented step by step according to the established plan, the whole situation could be truly stabilized...
