Chapter 557: Cuomo's Strategy

"Mayor, what kind of place is this!"

Another reporter asked, pointing to the Kingdom Building.

"It's called Kingdom Tower. Cuomo replied, smiling and continuing when he saw that it was an NBC reporter who asked the question. "If you're still working at NBC for the next few years, this will be your new office, and NBC has already rented the top 30 floors, the 889-metre-high Kingdom Tower, and you may only see those of us living on the surface when the weather is nice. โ€

"Ahh

The NBC reporter was shocked, she had never heard about it inside the company.

The rest of the reporters looked at the NBC reporters with envy when they heard Cuomo's words, this Kingdom Building is definitely one of the landmarks of the Staten District, and it can increase the face of working in it.

"This one is called Gherkin...... It's called The Shard...... This is the Feather Wing Building...... This is the museum ...... Staten District!" Cuomo answered the reporters' questions, explaining in detail each of the Staten buildings and the occupancy.

"Mayor, what's this place?"

A reporter asked, pointing to several buildings that looked like flying saucers.

"This is Stan's computer industry area, and these very sci-fi buildings are the headquarters of IBM, and there are also the digital industry headquarters of Qualcomm, Cisco, EMC Corporation, Nvidia Corporation, and General Electric...... At the same time, we are actively introducing famous IT companies to settle in, but also vigorously cultivating IT companies, the business park and low-rent housing for college students here are built to retain talents and incubate enterprises, I believe that so many outstanding college students will definitely turn the computer industry area into another Silicon Valley. โ€

The reporters at the scene were shocked again after listening to Cuomo's words, not to mention other companies, the entry of a single IBM can bring great influence to Staunton, a Fortune 500 manufacturing company brings at least hundreds of offline industries, providing hundreds of jobs.

"Mayor, what kind of place is this?"

A USA Today reporter pointed to the outermost buildings.

"This is the heavy industry area of Staunton, here is the General Motors Group bus production and unmanned technology and design center, here is the United States Steel special steel production and research and development center, here is the production and development center of high-speed trains and subways, here is the Otis headquarters, here is the unmanned aircraft production and development center of Grumman aircraft, next to this area is the research and development area, in addition to the research and development centers of these companies, there are also GM and Rolls ยท The Royce Joint Engine Development Center, as well as our R&D centers in Germany, France, the United Kingdom and Russia, are also located in this area. In the future, these two areas will drive the development of Staten's heavy industry. โ€

The reporter picked up his camera and took a picture of this heavy industrial area when he heard Cuomo's words, and today Cuomo revealed a very large amount of information and provided them with a lot of reporting material. Just a dozen of the world's top 500 companies settled in, can cause a huge sensation, you must know that this is a piece of land that is still under development, not the kind of city that has developed maturely, and various infrastructure facilities are perfect.

"Mayor, how much will the housing price in Staten be controlled?"

NBC reporter asked, from Cuomo's introduction to learn that her company is going to move to Staten, she has always wanted to ask this question, she already has a headache to drive through half of the district every day, if the company moves to Staten Kingdom Tower, then she has to pass through two districts every day, New York is so congested, passing through two districts is a disaster, so the best way is to move to live in Staten. But she cares about Staten's house prices, and renting a room in Manhattan for $1,000 a month is a money grab.

"Our government's mission is to have a home for everybody who works hard in Staten, so the house price is not very high, and for the sake of quality and other issues, we don't stipulate how much each grade of housing should be sold, we only stipulate how much money the real estate company can only make? In Manhattan, the profit of the real estate company is 37 percent, in Brooklyn in Queens is 23 percent, and in the Staten District our requirement is not to exceed 5 to 15 percent. That is, general residences are not allowed to have a profit of more than 50,000 US dollars, mid-range residences are not allowed to have a profit of more than 10%, high-end residences are not allowed to have a profit of more than 15%, luxury residences have no control, and people who can afford to live in luxury houses do not need the government to control housing prices for them! We only guarantee that the general public has a house to live in. โ€

"Haha!"

The reporter laughed when he heard Cuomo's words, indeed, where can the rich worry about whether the government has a house to live in, whether they can afford to buy a house!

It is ordinary people like them who can't afford to buy a house, and a mid-range home in Queens costs $600,000, and Manhattan costs more than 11 million, which is simply desperate for people who have a monthly salary of only $6,500 and save up to $2,000 a month excluding living and paying taxes.

"But will this control of housing prices make real estate developers reluctant to come to Staten to invest and develop, and will it affect the speed of Staten's development?"

"Don't worry about this, they don't want to earn these few dollars, some people want to earn, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs Group has signed a joint development contract with Monday Real Estate Group, and every year to invest $20 billion in the construction of low, medium and high-end residential areas, and Stateton Special Zone will establish a sound social security and medical insurance, and the money collected will also be invested in Monday Real Estate Group, when earning a part of the money, to solve the people's housing problem, to provide the people with high-quality and low-cost housing. In addition, there are already ten real estate companies on the Staunton side, so the development of Staten will not be affected.

We welcome real estate companies when they come, and we don't force them to come if they don't, because the current development is enough for Staunton to complete the development in 20 years. โ€

Cuomo really wants to let the real estate companies come to Staten to develop, so as to reduce the development time, but he said that it doesn't matter, and temporarily close the land for sale This is his strategy, people are sometimes very cheap, begging grandpa to sue grandma when the open sale is not cared for, once the limit is limited, one by one and fart to buy, and a suite to earn a thirty or forty thousand dollars is a lot, the development of a real estate is three or four million dollars! Cuomo doesn't believe that no one will want to make this money, if it really doesn't matter, the government is willing to earn, every year the people pay social security and medical insurance must be invested, otherwise what money will be made at that time, so he is very willing to invest in Staten's real estate, although the income is small, but safe, the government's investment is not to get rich overnight, but to be safe.
