Wang Ye had considered the choice of faction whip for a long time.
He had once thought of giving the position to Oleg, who had come over to his side. After all, Oleg was a veteran, knew all the Duma deputies well, and had a decent level of prestige.
He could be considered quite a suitable candidate.
But in the end, Wang Ye rejected the idea himself, because what he needed was someone completely loyal to him—someone who could even be called his "loyal hound"!
The faction whip was meant to help him better control the entire faction, not to cultivate a "number two" within it...
When Danya had recently sought to join him and successfully passed his test, Wang Ye had already made up his mind.
This young lawyer was exactly the faction whip he wanted!
Because Danya perfectly met every requirement he had for the position.
She was capable, had no tangled relationships with other factions or deputies, derived all her authority from him and could only rely on him. Ideally, she also needed a certain degree of prestige. Even if she could not make every member of the faction respect her, they at least had to fear her, and so on...
Danya, who had brought down even Luzhkov, possessed all these qualities.
That was why Wang Ye formally proposed appointing her as the faction whip.
Strictly speaking, faction whip was not an official position, merely an internal title within a faction.
In a faction where the party leader exercised strong control, the leader directly appointed the whip to help manage faction members, monitor everyone's conduct, and step forward to punish members who made mistakes or betrayed the faction.
If the party leader's control over the faction was weak, then the whip would generally be elected by all,
