After listening to Abu's words, Zhuang Mingge began to search in his mind for some relevant memories of the 1996 Russian election: in the end, Yeltsin undoubtedly won the election, but the process of winning was extremely thrilling, and the Russian presidential election in his memory was also the most fiercely contested.

Abu told him that because in the election of the Russian Duma (that is, Russia's parliament) at the beginning of the year, Yeltsin's party of Prime Minister Chernomyrdin suffered a crushing defeat in the election, while other parties, such as the Russian Communist Party and the Liberal Democratic Party, won broad popular support, so that Yeltsin, who was previously in Russia, was not at all sure whether he could win next year's presidential election.

At this time, for the sake of their own interests, they are trying every means to contact all kinds of contacts and resources available to them to win votes for Yeltsin.

"Roman, what exactly is Mr. Berezovsky looking for me? I'm not a citizen of Russia, and I don't have any industry in Russia, so I can't get votes. Zhuang Mingge asked Abu with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, what Mr. Boris thinks, how can I possibly know." Abu took a soft sip of vodka and said with a smile.

Zhuang Mingge looked at Abu who made an expression of "I don't know anything" in front of him, and sighed with emotion, he didn't expect that Abu now has such a deep city and wisdom, so he resolutely pretended to be stupid and said that he didn't know, anyway, no one else had evidence to prove what he knew......

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the door of the hall, and the guests who had been chatting and laughing in the banquet turned their eyes there.

I saw that under the support of a large group of bodyguards, one of the initiators of this banquet - Boris Berezovsky appeared!

Born in 1946, Boris Berezovsky was the most legendary of the seven oligarchs of Russia during the Yeltsin era. Compared with other financial oligarchs, Berezovsky, who made his debut at the earliest, did not take advantage of the loopholes of the former Soviet Union's reform of the country's economic system in the late 80s to complete the accumulation of primitive capital through opportunism, buying and selling, and encroaching on state-owned assets.

Berezovsky's first pot of gold came in the field of applied mathematics, and his initial identity was a well-known professor in the field of applied mathematics, and even served as a management member of the USSR Academy of Sciences. Later, during the turbulent period of the former Soviet Union, he turned to business, first accumulating hundreds of millions of dollars in assets by reselling cars, and then gradually integrating multiple identities such as car boss, financial tycoon, media tycoon, and political high-level staff.

Berezovsky's appearance attracted the attention of many guests in the hall, not only because of the huge wealth and power he had accumulated in just a few years, but also because Berezovsky himself was one of the most core figures in the campaign team of the current Russian President Boris Yeltsin.

Seeing that Berezovsky had arrived, Abramovich, who was his assistant, could not continue to chat with Zhuang Mingge here, and after saying "I'm sorry, I'll go over first", he sorted out his image and walked quickly towards Berezovsky's location.

Zhuang Mingge saw Abu whispering a few words in Berezovsky's ear. Berezovsky, who received the assistant's report, also nodded slowly, and under the gaze of the attendees, he walked towards Zhuang Mingge's location.

"Hello, President Antonio Corleone, I'm Boris Berezovsky, it's a pleasure for you to come all the way from Italy this time, and I welcome you to Moscow on my own behalf!" Berezovsky still retains the scholarly demeanor of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, a somewhat balding man who looks less like a financial predator and more like a professor who has dedicated himself to the cause of science.

"It's an honor to meet you here, Mr. Berezovsky." Zhuang Mingge stretched out his right hand, shook it with the other party, and said, "For the invitation you sent, I don't think anyone will refuse it ignorantly, right?" ”

"Hehe, you're really good at talking, Chairman Corleone." Berezovsky heard Zhuang Mingge say this, laughed, and said, "I think at the beginning, when I was your age, I didn't have as much money as you, and I was really a hero from ancient times." ”

"Haha, you're wrong."

The two then exchanged a few more polite words, and Berezovsky left.

However, before leaving Zhuang Mingge, Berezovsky gave Abu beside him a vague look, and the shrewd Abramovich immediately understood.

While Berezovsky was giving a passionate speech in the hall, Abu quietly appeared next to Zhuang Mingge and said, "Antonio. ”

Zhuang Mingge, who was listening to the content of the speech, suddenly heard a voice coming from his side, so frightened that he almost spilled the drink in his hand on the ground, and finally calmed down his mood, and said to the elusive Abu with some dissatisfaction: "I said Roman, if you have anything to say generously, how can you deliberately scare me?" ”

"......," Abramovich decisively ignored Zhuang Mingge's displeasure and whispered, "Mr. Berezovsky would like to invite you to a small party in the small hall next to you after your speech. ”

"Oh?" Zhuang Mingge knew that inviting him to another party was obviously the financial predator who wanted to make a deal with him. If I can take this opportunity to befriend that gentleman, then this will be the most important opportunity for me to gain a foothold in Russia, and of course I can't let it go easily, "Please say goodbye to Mr. Lezovsky, it is my honor to be able to attend his private party." ”

"Haode, when Mr. Boris's speech is over, please come with this Miss Karin, I have a pass here." Abu blinked and said, "Otherwise, we will be stopped by the security guards before we can get close to that door." ”

"Uh, Haode." What is this going to do, and it needs to be so mysterious? Zhuang Mingge was a little puzzled, but he was quickly relieved, not to mention that in Russia, where social security is quite poor, even in those Western countries, there will always be various security measures around these important people.
