"As we all know, the security situation in Kaya City is not very good,"

The host looked at the manuscript in his hand,

“When our dear Mayor Geno was elected, he vowed to reduce the crime rate in Kaya City, but what is the result now?

I went out that day and walked three kilometers. I met five homeless people who wanted to rob me. I took a 100 federal dollar bill and let them divide it among themselves. Guess what happened? They tore the one hundred dollars into five pieces and each took one piece away. "

There was canned laughter in the studio.

This paragraph contains two backgrounds.

First, homeless people in Kaya City usually only grab twenty federal coins when they grab banknotes. Twenty federal coins have a low denomination and are the most widely circulated. They have the most holders among the banknotes in circulation, so they are easier to grab. Twenty federal coins are not worth it. Many people who have been robbed are willing to spend money to ward off the disaster and are not likely to call the police.

Second, the homeless people who robbed are generally not very educated, and the host used the exaggerated joke of "physically dividing money" to mock them as "stupid".

However, in the federation where electronic payments are highly developed, there are very few people using cash, and electronic money is easy to track, so now homeless people usually grab some more valuable, but not so expensive clothing or accessories.

"These homeless and stupid homeless people have become the biggest danger in our city. They are greedy and despicable. They don't even know the capital letters. They hide in every corner of the city, threatening our lives and livelihoods. But our mayor has his head under the table, only his fat ass is exposed, and there is nothing he can do about it..."

The host in the studio is still telling jokes and narrating.

He Ao didn't laugh when he heard these jokes, but looked at Danny beside him, "How many homeless people are there in Kaya City now?"

"There are no statistics, but there may be hundreds of thousands, close to one million."

Danny answered slowly.

The entire city of Kaya has a population of only about 16 million.

"What is the approximate housing area per capita in Kaya City now?"

He Ao asked immediately.

"There is currently no city-wide data," Danny shook his head. "The group has probably developed 40% of the city's housing and apartments. By analogy, if we make approximations, the per capita housing area is about 40 to 45 square meters."

A single apartment in Kaya City is about 35 square meters, but the actual figure is even lower because there are many couples or couples crowded into a single apartment, while a two-bedroom apartment that can accommodate three people is about 60 to 70 square meters.

With a housing area of ​​40 per capita, theoretically everyone can have a house to live in, but there are still so many people homeless.

This means that a large number of houses are occupied by wealthier people, or are simply vacant.

"What is the occupancy rate of the rental apartments under the group?"

He Ao thought for a while and continued to ask.

Rental apartments refer to apartment buildings specifically designed for rent. In the Commonwealth, these apartment buildings are generally developed by large consortiums. Most of the time, they are not sold to the public and are only used for rent.

"There's about 5% to 7% vacant,"

Danny replied softly, he almost opened his mouth about these data,

"This number is very reasonable, because if we further lower the rent to attract tenants, the number of tenants that will increase with the price reduction will not be very large, and the price reduction will cause our fixed cost ratio to increase. In order to maintain profits, we have to Cutting service and marketing costs, and cutting these soft costs will result in a decline in our tenant numbers and ultimately lower overall profits."

The old housekeeper paused, "Now this price has been calculated by computer. It is the price that can achieve the maximum profit in our current environment. Vacant houses cannot be reduced in price alone, which will cause the original tenants to become dissatisfied and even check out and rent again." Reducing the price of housing to 'take advantage', in practice, the current method is the most profitable method."

Maximum profit.

He Ao did not go further into this question, but immediately asked, "Those homeless people lost their jobs, and the group can't hire more workers now?"

"The market has been sluggish recently," the old housekeeper nodded lightly. "Our products can't be sold, and other companies' products can't be sold either. The products are backlogged in the warehouse and there is no need for production for the time being, so everyone has plans to cut production. Except for some employees.”

"After these employees lost their jobs, they still had to repay consumer loans and home loans. They couldn't find new jobs and had to declare bankruptcy, so the bank repossessed their homes, causing them to become homeless?"

He Ao thought for a moment and said softly.

"Yes."

Danny nodded slightly.

He Ao fell into a brief silence.

Danny didn't say anything either, and the sun shone on their cheeks.

Kaya City is the Kaya City of Noranka Group. As the controlling shareholder of Noranka Group, Wei An is the real king of this city in a sense.

What constitutes his throne is a huge interest group that, together with the Nolanka Group, forms the internal and external structure of the Nolanka Group.

"Danny, go and see how many people on the group's board of directors are willing to sell their shares,"

He Ao looked at the huge advertising screen below and said slowly.

"Okay, Master Wei An."

The old housekeeper nodded slowly and was about to leave the office

He Ao suddenly stopped him, "Change the management staff of Nolanka Orphanage."

"OK."

The old housekeeper stopped, nodded slowly, and then walked out of the office.

Only He Ao was left in the empty office, staring at the huge advertising screen in the distance.

The screen itself actually has no sound, but the old housekeeper just used the computer in the office to connect to the live broadcast and play the sound.

At this moment, the host has finished his joke. He looks at the camera and says,

"I believe everyone is as curious as me about why there are so many criminals in Kaya City, why the crime rate is so high, and why we encounter seven or eight robbers when we go out to buy a pack of cigarettes. I believe everyone is tired of hearing the mayor's spiel. "

He paused and then said, "So we invited a special 'guest' today, a big bad guy who believes in the God of Chaos. He said that he does all kinds of evil. Today, let's take a look at Kaya City from his perspective. There’s the problem of high crime rates.”

I have to say that although inviting the God of Chaos is a bad move, this show actually does a good job in terms of attracting attention.

He Ao raised his bracelet and glanced at the comments on the show. Many people thought that the show was a deliberate show, asking people to pretend to be followers of the God of Chaos to attract attention.

But no matter what, the purpose of attracting traffic for this program has been achieved, and the number of people watching the live broadcast is still rising sharply.

With the bizarre theme and the high-priced advertising space, even though many people felt that this was a deliberate show, they couldn't help but click on the live broadcast to see what happened.

He Ao stared at the huge screen, and he was also curious about what kind of 'believer of the God of Chaos' the other party would invite.

The screen flickered and the scene changed, but it was not in the studio, but on an empty street.

White clouds float in the sky.

A man holding a bunch of balloons stands in the center of the frame.

He handed a balloon in his hand to a little girl, and then seemed to notice the camera. He slowly walked towards the camera with the balloon in his hand.

Balloons built up one after another covered his cheeks, making his appearance unclear.

When the balloon was about to hit the camera, he slowly took it away.

A huge laughing fat doll mask instantly filled half of the screen, and a terrifying and depressing feeling came from the screen.

There is an opening in the mouth part of this mask. Under this opening, a closed man's mouth and a small half of his cheek can be faintly seen.

The cheek near the mouth seemed to have been cut. Starting from the corner of the mouth, there were two terrible scars that continued to the ears.

The figure behind the mask seemed to realize that everyone was looking at the scar on his mouth at this moment. The two scars suddenly twitched, pulling apart like two earthworms.

Snow-white teeth and bright red gums were slowly revealed, and in the gaps between the gums, there were strips of bright red flesh.

He gave a 'smile'.

The hoarse voice echoed throughout the space,

"Good morning, cuties."
