Chapter 994 Theater Encounter

Valsili was overjoyed, and quickly said with a smile:

"That's great!

Although it is winter, it is not the most beautiful time of the year on Lake Baikal, but the scenery of Lake Baikal after snow is also unique.

The weather is relatively cold this year, so the lake also froze in advance. You can set up tents and camp on the lake, and you can also barbecue. Speaker Mikhail, you probably haven't experienced it, haha

The winter temperature in Siberia is lower than that in Moscow, often around minus 40 degrees, so the surface of Lake Baikal can freeze more than one meter, so there is no pressure to drive, camp, and barbecue on it.

And because the lake is clear and transparent, the ice it freezes is also very beautiful. It is said that you can even see fish swimming underwater through the ice...

Wang Ye nodded slightly, but didn't say anything more.

The convoy has also driven into the urban area of Irkutsk. There is almost no snow on the main road.

Because in Russia, it snows heavily every three days in winter. It would be a waste of manpower and material resources to clean up as soon as it snows.

Even in Moscow, most of the roads are sprinkled with snowmelt salt on the roads, just to keep the roads from freezing. As for making the roads dirty, no one cares.

Only on the main street, or when the snow is too heavy on certain days, and it is impossible to drive without cleaning, will the snow plow be dispatched to clean it.

In a city with a small population like Irkutsk, under normal circumstances, there should be no "budget" for "clearing snow"...

The population is only about 500,000, so the city is not too big. A straight street runs through the entire city.

Not long after, the convoy arrived under the state capital building.

It is still a common open-plan office building, a bit like a reduced version of the Duma Building. In front of the door is a small square with high steps and standard European-style buildings.

Surrounded by a large group of people, Wang Ye quickly walked up the steps and walked into the state capital building.

He will first lead a meeting to listen to the local state government's report on the preparations for the pipeline opening ceremony the day after tomorrow, as well as the preparations for the reception of the Chinese delegation.

The Chinese delegation will arrive in Irkutsk tomorrow.

Among all the people here, Wang Ye has the highest position, so of course he is responsible for the reception.

There will also be a meeting with the Chinese delegation to discuss the follow-up energy cooperation issues...

"For this pipeline opening ceremony, our state attaches great importance to it. Together with Yukos Group, Gazprom Group, and the Pipeline Group, we set up a preparatory working group.

I myself will be the team leader, and I will mobilize a lot of elite soldiers to make the ceremony as perfect as possible!

To this end, we have made the following preparations..."

At the meeting, Valsili reported the relevant preparations to Wang Ye in an orderly manner.

Wang Ye nodded as he listened, and he could tell that they had indeed done a lot.

Even in order to better receive the Chinese delegation, a ballet performance was specially prepared, and many excellent dancers were selected from several art universities in the state to participate in this performance.

Speaking of ballet, although it did not originate in Russia, it can be said that Da Mao has carried it forward. Domestic ballet dancers have emerged in large numbers and are world-renowned!

The performance this time is a very classic show, "Swan Lake".

Wang Ye had seen the performance of the Royal Ballet in Moscow. Although he didn't know much about dance, seeing the graceful postures and the magnificent stage effects on the stage, each ballerina was more beautiful than the other.

He said that he was indeed influenced by art...

Ballet is definitely considered "elegant art", so it is very handy and suitable for welcoming important foreign guests.

This arrangement is really good, Wang Ye expressed his approval.

After reporting on the preparatory work, Valsili also took the opportunity to cry a wave of poverty, what a rare opportunity, the "God of Wealth" came to Irkutsk region for the first time, and he seemed to be in a good mood, so why don't he take the opportunity to pull Pull "sponsorship"?

"Hey, the state's finances are really tight, otherwise, this ceremony would have been more perfectly prepared.

I'm not afraid that you, the Speaker, will make fun of you. The money for the ceremony was given by Yukos and Gazprom. We really can't afford it.

In fact, Irkutsk's industrial foundation is very complete. It used to be a famous industrial city with a sound industrial system. The largest aircraft factory in Russia is here.

It is the lack of capital investment these years, so life is getting more and more difficult..."

Valsili stated with a heavy face.

He said that the aircraft factory Wang Ye knew, because the SU-27 and SU-30, as well as various large bomber transport aircraft were indeed produced in the factory here.

Of course, this aircraft factory is also a subsidiary of the United Airlines Group, and it can be regarded as one of Wang Ye's assets.

After Valsili finished speaking, Wang Ye responded with a smile:

"Yes, this problem is not limited to the Irkutsk region, but is very common throughout the country.

Everyone has worked hard these years.

However, with the gradual improvement of the national economy, we can also have more money to invest in the reconstruction of the industrial system.

Why do I want to engage in large-scale infrastructure construction, and why I set up an industrial fund office, the purpose is to reactivate the country's industrial system.

As long as some large heavy industrial factories with international competitiveness can be reactivated, a large number of high-paying jobs can be provided for the society!

can change the economic landscape of many cities and bring more economic income to the states.

So, everything will be fine..."

Wang Ye is not a "rookie". It is impossible to soften his heart just because Valsili cried poor, and then allocate funds to Irkutsk...

He generalized the plight of Irkutsk to every state in the country, and considering the problem from his position, it is natural to consider the overall situation, and it is impossible to only look at a certain place.

This blocked Valsily's mouth, because not only Irkutsk Region is in economic difficulties, but everyone is in difficulties.

But resources are limited and can only be allocated according to priorities...

So, after hearing Wang Ye's words, Valsili's face became a bit exciting.

But he didn't think that once he was crying poor, Speaker Mikhail would give him money. Anyway, he still had some back-up preparations, and Speaker Mikhail would stay here for at least three days. Well, I will find opportunities to work hard later!

The welcome banquet at noon did not last long, because most of the people were busy preparing for the ceremony after eating.

After everyone dispersed, Valsili approached Wang Ye and asked attentively:

"Speaker, are you planning to go to the hotel to take a rest, or..."

Wang Ye is not tired. Besides, everyone is busy with work, so it is not very decent to go to the hotel to rest.

smiled and said: "What are you resting now, why don't you, Mr. Governor, take me to the place where the Chinese delegation is received and the ceremony site?"

Valsili said hastily: "Of course it's no problem. How about it? There just happened to be a rehearsal for the ballet for the Chinese guests in the afternoon. Let's go and have a look?

Speaker, you have a higher vision. You can also see if there are any problems with their performances and correct them. "

Wang Ye didn't think much, just nodded in agreement.

Anyway, it doesn't take much time to go to the rehearsal.

So, the two of them drove lightly, and only took the security personnel with them, and went to the Grand Theater, because the rehearsal was there.

After arriving at the place, Valsili wanted to call the person in charge, but was stopped by Wang Ye.

"We came here just to have a look, don't make it too exciting.

In this way, just the two of us went in, looked around for a while and then left. "

Valsili rolled his eyes and immediately said with a smile: "Okay, just do as you said, Speaker. In this way, I will take you directly to the VIP room, which is closest to the stage, and you can watch the performance on the stage when you sit inside. , and will not disturb the rehearsal staff."

The Grand Theater was not open to the public today, and there were security guards at the gate, but they all knew Valsili, so they entered without any hindrance.

Valsili was familiar with the road, and walked directly to the stage after entering the gate. Because it was closed today, the theater was very deserted, so he didn't meet anyone along the way.

After passing through a long corridor, Valsili stopped and said with a smile:

"Speaker, there are still more than ten minutes before the rehearsal starts. Let's wait in the lounge for a while and have a cup of coffee."

Wang Ye naturally had no objection, so he nodded and agreed.

The security personnel advanced to the lounge and checked it with instruments. After finding no problems, they came out and signaled to Wang Ye that he could go in.

Wang Ye followed Valsili into the VIP lounge, and the security personnel dispersed to find a suitable location to do security work.

Valsili should often come here to watch performances, so he is very familiar with this place.

Because the museum is closed today, there is no service staff in the VIP lounge, but all kinds of facilities are complete. Valsili opened the refrigerator skillfully, looking for some drinks or pastries.

It's a pity that it is empty inside, there is nothing...

He turned his head and smiled awkwardly: "It is estimated that no one has used this lounge for a while, and there is nothing there. Speaker, please sit down first, and I will go next door to get some drinks."

Wang Ye didn't care, but seeing Valsili's enthusiasm, it was not easy to refute him, so he nodded.

Valsili walked out of the lounge quickly, leaving Wang Ye alone in the room.

Sitting bored, Wang Ye took out his cigarette case, took out a cigarette, and began to puff.

As a result, as soon as he took two puffs, he heard a burst of brisk footsteps outside, accompanied by the voice of a chattering girl.

Then the door of the lounge was pushed open.

Wang Ye looked up and was taken aback.

The two girls who pushed the door and came in also froze at the door when they saw Wang Ye sitting in the lounge.

Wang Ye reacted the fastest, smiled and nodded at the two girls at the door, and said "good afternoon" casually.

Since none of the security personnel stopped the two girls, obviously their identities should be fine,

These two girls are both slender and good-looking, but because they are standing in the dark at the door, they can't see clearly.

It's not hard to guess, they should be ballet dancers who will be rehearsing and dancing later.

The two girls came back to their senses, greeted Wang Ye with a smile, and walked in together.

One of the girls asked Wang Ye curiously: "Are you also here for the rehearsal?"

Obviously, they thought that Wang Ye was also dancing or performing other shows, because Wang Ye looked very young, about the same age as them.

Also, the light in the lounge was a bit dim, and Wang Ye was sitting in the backlight, and it didn't look clear, only a rough outline could be seen.

As for letting them recognize Wang Ye at a glance, it is obviously impossible, even though Wang Ye often appears on TV news and media newspapers.

After all, these two girls are not very old, so they usually don't pay much attention to the news. Even if they occasionally go online, they have seen pictures of Wang Ye on the Internet or in newspapers, but they will not compare real people with those in the news. Big names linked together

Even when they participated in the performance this time, the notice they received was only to welcome the Chinese delegation and the leaders from Moscow. No one told them that Speaker Mikhail was coming.

Maybe their team leader knows, but these low-level dancers only need to dance their own dance well, and don't need to worry too much about other things.

Hearing the girl's question, Wang Ye responded vaguely.

If they directly recognize their identity, then Wang Ye can deal with it better. The problem is that if they don't recognize who he is, then he can't take the initiative to tell them that he is a big shot...

The two girls sat across from Wang Ye and looked over in unison.

Wang Ye finally saw the faces of the two girls clearly.

The appearance of one of the girls made Wang Ye, who was used to seeing beautiful women, feel a little surprised!

In other words, the girl's appearance is particularly in line with Wang Ye's aesthetics...

Brown blonde hair with wavy hair, a delicate face not much bigger than Wang Ye's palm, facial features are like the most perfect works of art, without a single flaw.

Especially her skin, fair or fine is not enough to describe it, it is like white porcelain, shining with luster, dazzlingly white!

Wang Ye couldn't help admiring in his heart.

He is usually surrounded by beauties, such as Katya, Ajielina, Natalia, Nova, etc., are all big beauties.

But without emotional factors, if you only talk about appearance, one counts as one, and they are all a little worse than the girl in front of you...

Of course, there is no absolute standard for aesthetics, and everyone's aesthetics are different.

It can only be said that this girl perfectly fits Wang Ye's aesthetics. Perhaps in the eyes of others, Katya and Nova are even more beautiful than this girl.

Similarly, in the eyes of the two girls, Wang Ye is also a very handsome man, with decent clothes and elegant conversation.

Especially his temperament, there is an indescribable feeling, which makes people unforgettable at a glance...

After eating last night, I felt a little sleepy, so I wanted to take a nap and then get up to type. When I woke up, it was already today...
