Chapter 391: New York City cracks down on crime

Anthony is a special kind of New York mayor: before this, New York had never had a truly working-class mayor.

A little closer is the mayor of New York during World War II. Before entering politics, he was a translator, but his wife was an out-and-out garment worker. The two met during protests.

Anthony's path to politics is also a bit unexpected: he was pulled into the boat by Lear to fight against the evil forces, and then he pushed the boat step by step, and was pushed to this position by Lear.

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know how to answer that dude."

After the speech, the two got into an extended commercial vehicle.

A car like this is not cheap either. It has a bulletproof body and windows, and a weight-increasing chassis.

There is also a unique electric drive system.

Yes, this is a first-generation pure electric vehicle developed by Atlas Group.

Although the energy density is not ridiculously high, the strength of stacked graphene solid-state batteries is comparable to that of medium-level bulletproof steel plates, and can completely replace a large number of structural parts to a certain extent.

Using Dr. Toombs's design, these cells, combined with components, can exhibit astonishing strength properties that are even better than those of original ultra-high-strength steel.

After all, this is the designated battery for the octopus arm, so it is natural that it can withstand strong impacts.

This is one of the reasons why Lille chose this thing as an energy currency: the density is not high, so it can be deceived in Night City, and some trading habits can be cultivated at the bottom first.

Lear's current requirements for these batteries are to take into account safety and durability, and the energy density is sufficient.

Part of the reason is that in the Marvel world, he may replace traditional fuel equipment with a large number of electric equipment.

As for the energy density issue, Dr. Otto can only find a way to improve it.

The car itself is quite stable;

"Read more books." Lear suggested. "Now that you are the mayor, to do this position well, you cannot solve the problem by traveling around.

Knowing your citizens and the history of the city and country will make your job a lot easier. "

"You're right." Anthony nodded sincerely, "Sometimes I really think it would be nice if there were 48 hours in a day, so that I could spend a whole day alone reading."

Compared to Anthony's oratory talent, Lear was more satisfied with his humility and sincerity.

Satisfied with work and cherishing life, this middle-aged man who is over 40 years old insists on learning without making excuses, even if his brain is a bit old.

A positive life inspires him and will also inspire other citizens.

hope so.

New York outside the window is more orderly than a year ago. Although the economy is still in a difficult period, the growth of unemployment among workers has basically been controlled.

Financial professionals continue to be unlucky, which is a good thing for Lille.

The assets they release will be absorbed by Martin's financial company and finally integrated into the entire interest group.

From the political level to the economic level to the bottom workers, New York City has been highly unified, and it is difficult for any politician to find loopholes to interfere.

but

Lille suddenly thought of a question, and he asked: "How is the current situation of United Construction Company?"

The boss of the United Construction Company is Kingpin, and since driving him out of his own street, Lear has not paid much attention to the underworld boss.

"This company is about to go bankrupt, and their directors seem to be thinking of ways to transfer their business to other cities."

There was a reason why Leal suddenly asked about Kingpin.

Anthony only knew that United Construction Company was involved in crime, but how.

It can only be said that although some people have seen pigs running, they have just seen pigs running.

Anthony was a simple low-level worker before this. The most exciting time in his life was when he and Lille were hunting down a small group in the community.

But even so, he was just running for his life that time. He had never hurt anyone in his life, and he had never taken the initiative to hurt anyone.

Now that he is the mayor, he must learn how to kill pigs.

His expression was a little cold when talking about this company - his current driver, also a driver in Lille, and his former neighbor John had a close friendship with him.

The two were attacked by Bullseye in the van. Anthony was luckier, but John was almost killed by a steel skewer piercing his throat.

This is a very good sentiment, Lear nodded secretly.

It just so happened that Night City had upgraded its firepower, and it was also needed here.

“Atlas Group will soon develop a new batch of police combat exoskeletons, and I hope to increase the deployment rate within the NYPD to 20% in the future.

Then let the NYPD organize an organized anti-gang and anti-evil campaign, and you will be in charge of the entire process. "

"me"

"Yes, you participated in the whole process to let New York citizens see your deep hatred for the evil forces, and you seized every clue, read out their charges, and brought them to court——

If anyone resists, let the NYPD shoot them on the spot.

The underworld's interference with society is no longer an ordinary crime, and must be dealt with harshly.

Finally, remember that you are not only a mayor, but also an ordinary person. United Construction Company once sent a killer to threaten you. In the political arena, some people look down on you.

If you have a grudge, you must avenge yourself. If you are looked down upon, you must learn to fight for it. As a mayor, you must be sharp but not disrespectful in dealing with it, and be fierce without making people think you are a mad dog——

At least he didn't become a mad dog because of a small gang leader. "

Anthony was silent for a moment and nodded: "I understand, is there anything else?"

"Also, in the future, the old official cars of the city hall will be replaced with Atlas pure electric cars.

In addition, the municipal power grid needs to be upgraded to reduce power loss and improve power supply stability.

Large-scale infrastructure helps workers get jobs. After employment, it is necessary to increase investment in worker protection and implement the minimum wage amount -

The amount will be analyzed and adjusted through big data of Bloom's ctOS system to achieve the best level."

"I actually have a question. Some members of parliament have told me that the current enterprises are too difficult. If labor costs continue to rise, they may lose their competitiveness. If enterprises Bankruptcy"

"Then let them lose their competitiveness, and the ctOS system will quickly reassign jobs to the unemployed."

"The finances of the city hall may not be optimistic."

"Then issue bonds and let Martin handle it. It won't be long before New York City will be completely renewed, and those who have problems with the policy will shut up."

"I understand. Are there any risks?"

"Yes." Lil did not intend to hide it from Anthony, "If the new president in the future intends to launch a large-scale war and causes losses to the Atlas Group, New York City's debts may not be repaid, or even go bankrupt."

Although Lil is his benefactor and huge financial backer, Anthony still hopes to find out the risks in a responsible attitude towards New York.

But he didn't expect Lil to be so straightforward: the risk is that New York City may go bankrupt.

He didn't know how this conclusion was reached, and he couldn't imagine how the most prosperous city in the world would go bankrupt.

But Lil's honesty only means one thing: at least Lil didn't treat him as a puppet and a fool.

The subtext is: You can choose for yourself whether to continue to stand with me as the mayor of New York.

Anthony suddenly had some feelings.

Because he found that whether it was out of his responsibility as mayor, his personal feelings or the reality of the situation.

He had no reason to refuse Lille.

He had read a lot of books, and he knew that many politicians used deception as a means of survival, and in the political arena, this did not seem to be something despicable, but more like a work skill.

But truly great politicians may have flaws, despicable black spots, and even be despised by future generations because of some things in the future.

But in the most glorious years of their careers, at the most important node for voters and even the whole world, none of them achieved the greatest achievements of their lives by pure deception.

Maybe in front of this young man, he, the mayor of New York, was still quite young.

So Anthony replied: "I understand."

"Then prepare for the first big move during your term."

Lille said in an encouraging tone, and patted him on the shoulder again.

He suddenly thought of a question: the Marvel world is obviously also in a period of change.

Anthony Flor is just a character who is so small that he can't even appear in the works of the Marvel world, let alone become the mayor.

Then, based on the information he has, it seems that the mayor who should have become the mayor during this period is King Byung who is about to be beaten up?
