Chapter 1023

Wang Ye put down the knife and fork in his hand, looked directly at Gobrev, and said sincerely:

"Uncle, he had a deep talk with me two days ago, and he told me his thoughts and plans for the future.

He is no longer interested in politics, but has found a new career worth investing in, which is helping the poor and helping people in remote areas improve their living environment and quality of life.

For this reason, he needs a lot of funds, so he has to cash out all the properties in his hands.

Of course, I plan to take over those industries, which will not have any impact on the normal operations of several companies.

By the way, in addition to part of my uncle Hovchenko's property, part of Abramovich's property is also planned to be transferred to me.

They feel tired and are getting older, so they don't have any interest in making trouble anymore. "

The last sentence is very meaningful...

But Gobrev naturally understood it in seconds!

A smile appeared on his face immediately. It would be great if Hovchenko really thought about it like Abramovich. Originally, the older generation of oligarchs should learn from Abramovich!

No one stops you when it's time for you to make money, but when it's time for you to retreat bravely, don't hold back anymore.

Besides, just do your own business honestly, don't stretch your hands too far, you want to get involved in everything...

The reason why Khovchenko is so valued is not only his own strong financial resources, but also the relationship between him and Wang Ye's "nephew and uncle" has become more important in the past two years.

Even the Kremlin felt quite tricky, wondering what Wang Ye would do when he really dealt with Khovchenko!

Now it's all right, all worries are gone, and Hovchenko finally figured it out, politics is not what people like him should play.

It's not good to take money to support the elderly. Of course, if you still want to live a more meaningful life and do some charity, that's even better!

To be honest, Gobrev wanted to go back and discuss whether to award Khovchenko a medal or something...

After a while, Gebrev said with emotion: "Yes, their era has passed! The era to come belongs to you...young people like you."

Wang Ye showed a shy smile on his face, waved his hands and said modestly: "I'm still early, and I don't have enough experience. I still need to learn more from my adoptive father and Speaker Gryzlov."

If we really want to divide it, Wang Ye should belong to the "third generation" in the political arena.

Needless to say, the first generation was the same group of people when the former Soviet Union just disintegrated. Influence is almost zero.

The second generation, of course, is the ruling faction represented by the Kremlin and dominated by the Hilavik Group.

High-ranking figures like foster father, Gobrev, Gryzlov, Medev, Shao Yigu, etc. all belong to this generation.

Ordinarily, now is their era, and if there are no accidents, they can continue their glory for many years.

But it cannot be ignored that the third generation is also growing rapidly.

The most prominent representative of the third generation is of course the current Deputy Speaker of the Duma, Director of the Economic and Foreign Affairs Committee Mikhail!

Oh, and maybe add Rosiana, the current governor of Moscow...

The husband and wife undoubtedly belong to the "third generation rising"!

In addition, Wang Ye's performance in recent years has been too good, but everyone has an impression that even the second generation is a bit old, and it's time to step down and give up the position to a more outstanding young man!

As for oligarchs such as Hovchenko and Abramovich, they spanned the first and second generations. Out of step with the times...

At this time, it is the most correct choice to retreat bravely.

Abramovich was the first to see the situation clearly and chose this path, and now Hovchenko can be regarded as seeing it clearly, gratifying.

After finding the bottom line from Wang Ye, Kremlin finally let go of his vigilance against Khovchenko.

The adoptive father actually discussed with Gobrev about whether to award Khovchenko the highest honor medal after his public welfare undertakings start...

Of course, maybe Hovchenko doesn't care about these honors anymore.

In early March 2006, YANDEX&MAIL.RU joint technology company conducted the last round of financing before going public.

Several investment institutions from Damao, Europe and the United States jointly took 25% of the shares from Wang Ye, at a price of 5 billion U.S. dollars!

This is the price based on the company's market value of US$20 billion.

Although the price is not considered favorable, it will be very difficult to acquire such a large share of shares after Y&M United Technology Corporation goes public.

However, there was no publicity for such a high amount of financing, but it was carried out in a low-key manner.

In the same month, Facebook Russia also conducted the last round of financing before going public. Wang Ye also transferred 30% of his shares and got 4.5 billion US dollars in cash!

Facebook Russia's valuation is only US$15 billion, which is slightly lower than that of Y&M United Technologies.

But this is also normal, because this company is not the "full body" of Facebook, but one of the three companies that were spun off, and it is also the one with the "worst" future prospects...

Wang Ye had no choice but to rush to cash out before the company went public.

He also knows that if he waits for one or two years after the company's listing and the potential is fully reflected in the stock price before cashing out, he may get more cash.

But there is no way, he is in urgent need of money now.

And if the company is really listed, it will not be easy for him, the major shareholder, to cash out a large amount of money, and he will be subject to too many restrictions.

It is better to transfer the original shares to those capitals who want to enter the market at a relatively fair price before the company goes public.

Although I suffered a little "small loss", I was able to get a large sum of money very smoothly, and at the same time it can be regarded as making friends!

Cash out the shares of the two companies to get 9 billion US dollars, plus the 4 billion US dollars to build a super manor, now Wang Ye holds 13 billion US dollars in his hands!

However, one billion U.S. dollars will soon be paid to Moscow State to acquire the manor, so the total funds that can be used are 12 billion, but this is enough.

In April, Abramovich returned to Moscow and invited Wang Ye to his suburban estate for a gathering, along with Khovchenko.

The three reached a preliminary agreement, and Wang Ye invested in the acquisition of several major assets under the two.

Including Abramovich's aluminum group shares and media group shares.

and the shares of Yukos Group and First United Bank in Hovchenko's hands!

Wang Ye needs to pay Abramovich $6 billion and Khovchenko $10 billion!

Of course, it can be paid in installments over three years. Abramovich and Khovchenko are not worried that Wang Ye will renege on the debt...

The actual value of the assets of Abramovich and Khovchenko must be higher than US$16 billion. If they were not transferred to Wang Ye, the estimated price would be at least 20% higher!

Now it's a friendly price.

Wang Ye did not play any tricks, and frankly told the two that he had prepared 12 billion U.S. dollars in funds.

They can immediately pay Abramovich 4 billion dollars and Khovchenko 8 billion dollars, which means that they each owe 2 billion dollars, and they will basically be able to pay off next year.

Wang Ye is not short of money, so he doesn't plan to really pay it in three years. That would be taking advantage of Abramovich and Hovchenko.

After initialing the agreement, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time stretched out their right hands, holding each other tightly.

Abu sighed: "This time I really quit. I may settle in London for a long time in the future, and I won't come back many times. My governorship will expire next year, so I don't plan to run for election again. But that site can't be lost. Misha, if you have a suitable candidate, you can recommend it to me, so that he can be successfully elected."

It can be heard that Abu really wants to quit, and he doesn't intend to "play" anymore.

Holding a $10-20 billion dollar knife in his hand, he is only in his forties, and he still has a lot of time to be free and easy, so why worry about messing around in Damao.

He has already earned enough money, and it doesn't make much sense to earn more. Of course, the most important thing is that the risk is too great, and he feels that he can't handle it!

Hovchenko said with a smile: "I don't plan to emigrate yet, there are still a lot of things waiting for me to do, but it is no longer those things that are intriguing and intriguing. It is Misha, you may be under a lot of pressure in the future Quite a few, neither Abu nor I can help you much, and you will have to go the rest of the way by yourself."

Wang Ye nodded solemnly, and said confidently: "Don't worry, uncle, I will never let these companies decline if you entrust these industries to me. Moreover, the money earned by these companies will also be used for necessary In places where we live, our goals are actually the same, we all want to make life better for our loved ones around us, and at the same time make this society and this country better..."

He was making a promise to the two of them in a disguised form.

As long as he has not "fallen", whether it is Abramovich or Hovchenko, don't worry about basic safety issues, just rest assured to live the life you want!

In the past, it was the two "big brothers" who helped him and pushed him to the current high position. Now that both of them have retired, it is Wang Ye's turn to provide them with the necessary protection.

Abu nodded with a smile and said, "It's hard to imagine how much Misha's net worth will reach in the future. Maybe in a few years, our country will have a real richest man in the world!"

This is not a joke. After the two resold their high-quality assets to Wang Ye, although Wang Ye paid a lot of money, the assets he got were actually more valuable.

Especially Yukos Group, Gazprom, and Polar Bear Investment Company, the three giants!

Only relying on the shares of these three companies, especially after the Internet companies invested by Polar Bear Investment Company in the early stage are all listed, Wang Ye's net worth can easily exceed 100 billion dollars...

And these are just assets floating on the "water surface". Wangye also has some unknown enterprises with great potential in the future.

For example, Crimea Investment Company and the security company that has dominated Africa...

No one of these two companies knows how much they are really worth, nor do they know how far these two companies can grow in the future.

But obviously, with the prosperity of the Crimea Peninsula, when it truly becomes the "Pearl of Eastern Europe", the assets held by the Crimea Investment Company will be an astonishing number!

As for the security company, it cannot be measured by money...

As for other "messy" companies, don't bother to forget!

Time entered May, and Facebook Russia took the lead in landing on the NASDAQ stock market in the United States. As an imaginative Internet social platform and a company with a monopoly advantage on the Russian Internet, it has been sought after by investors.

The stock price has been rising since the opening of the market, with an increase of 36% that day!

The market value has reached more than 21 billion US dollars!

After the news was transmitted back to Moscow, it caused a great sensation in the Internet industry, and made many small and medium Internet companies full of confidence in the future.

In the past two years, with Wang Ye's continuous investment and a large amount of financial support, a large number of Internet start-up companies have sprung up here in Moscow, most of which are established by top students who graduated from IT majors in major universities and received venture capital.

Although there are no "unicorn companies" yet, everything is full of hope. Who knows that in a while, there will be no new "Google" or "Facebook"...

The sensation of Facebook's listing has not yet passed, and then, YANDEX&MAIL.RU United Technology Corporation followed, and also landed on the NASDAQ stock market.

This company's imagination is not as high as Facebook's, but it has a solid foundation, a wide range of business operations, and a high number of user registrations. Almost every Russian-speaking Internet user is their loyal user, because everyone wants to read the news use email...

In addition, their business scope has also begun to expand to e-commerce, online games, online videos, etc., so the future prospects are still very optimistic.

As a result, YANDEX&MAIL.RU United Technology Co., Ltd. was valued at US$20 billion when it went public, and its stock price soared by 25% on the opening day!

The market value of the company has reached an astonishing $25 billion...

Of course, whether it is Facebook Russia or YANDEX & MAIL.RU United Technology, after the dilution of shares and the reintegration of the equity structure of these two companies before listing, it is not clear from the financial reports of the listed companies that the real major shareholder is who.

Wang Ye secretly controlled the shares of these two companies through several seemingly unrelated offshore companies. Of course, after cashing out before listing, he could no longer control the shares absolutely.

But Wang Ye didn't care, after all, these two companies were not that important to him.

It is enough to be able to cash out so much money, and to slowly cash out huge amounts of money in the future... (End of this chapter)
