In February 1997, Henry's company moved largely to the Williams Center.

Williams Center and the surrounding area began to flourish and form a small city - Williams City!

The administrative division of the United States is completely different from that of China, the president cannot control the governor, and the governor cannot control the mayor, they are all elected by the people in their respective constituencies, and they are only responsible to their voters, and do not have to be responsible to any other bureaucrats. However, the city is different, as long as there is a place on the land of the state where the people vote to establish a city, they can be independent from the jurisdiction of the state, elect their own mayor, and establish their own municipal government, but there is a premise, the federal government and the state taxes still have to pay, the federal government has a joint IRS, and the state also has the state local tax office, the two have nothing to do with each other, and they belong to the federation and the state.

The federal government is only responsible for the military, foreign affairs, homeland security, immigration, etc., while the states are responsible for police, fire and other things.

Charles Toney, the head of the think tank, suggested that Henry set up a city government to train his own political talent. Although Henry has been in the United States for so long, he doesn't pay attention to these, but he didn't expect that the American people could decide to establish a city and establish their own city government!

Damn, there's such a cool thing, I must do it!

Since most of the people in the Williams Center are Henry's employees, Henry gave an order to establish a city!!

As a result, everyone voted in favor, and the U.S. federal and California governments could only say yes. Williams City became Williams City, encompassing the Williams Center and the surrounding area.

Immediately afterwards, everyone elected Henry as mayor.

Large cities, such as New York, Los Angeles, etc., require full-time mayors. However, for some small and medium-sized cities, the mayor of the United States is not full-time, and he does not have to "sit on duty" every day, just come every other day. The working hours are about a dozen hours a week, and a large part of that time is spent responding to citizens' feedback. It can be said that the mayor of the United States is a super idle official position, more idle than Chinese civil servants!

Henry thought about it, and he should be the first to learn how to manage a city.

In the same way, if a city can't be managed, how can it manage the universe, right? Anyway, it only takes a dozen hours a week, which is actually the same as a management company......

On February 15, Henry officially assumed the post of mayor of Williams.

As soon as the news came out, it was explosive news again, and it immediately made the front page headlines of major newspapers.

The New York Times: "The richest mayor in the world!"

Los Angeles: "Williams City is going to be the richest city in the world!"

USA Today: "After Henry Williams became mayor of Williams, nearly 80 percent of Americans wanted to live in Williams, according to a survey!"

ABC TV news channel: "Since its establishment, the Williams Center has become a symbolic building complex in the United States! There is the world's tallest building, the Williams Experimental Tower, and the world's most sci-fi building, the Candle Building, etc., and most of the companies working here are Fortune 500 companies, and it has become the second 'Manhattan' in the United States." No, he will replace Manhattan as the economic and cultural center of the whole of America!!"

After the news spread around the world, for a while, the number of residents in Williams City skyrocketed. However, housing prices are super high, especially in the Williams Center, which is comparable to downtown Manhattan, and most of the people who can come to live here are wealthy. Global Land has built 500 villas and more than 150 large apartments in the surrounding area of Williams Center, all of which are now making a profit. Don't look at the more than 500 villas, Henry's employees alone have bought more than 300 villas, and they have money and are willful, and they can spend it casually.

In this new city, there are Williams supermarkets, Williams department stores, Williams hotels, Galaxy Paradise and many other industries. However, Henry can't do it all, he eats meat himself, and he has to leave some leftover soup for others...... Therefore, thousands of well-known companies have also settled in. Venture capital firms, in particular, have opened offices in Williams Center!

Land developers are making a lot of money, and the return on income is at least ten times more!

After Henry was elected mayor, he was personally forming a complete city government, including the city council, the secretary of the city government, the fire department, the police station, the library, the municipal planning bureau, the leisure and entertainment department, the public works department and several other departments.

Urban safety is what Henry values the most, therefore, Henry puts the most energy into the fire department, the police department, and the best equipment, from helicopters and police cars to weapons, body armor, etc., all the best. Henry also plans to install surveillance cameras throughout the city, so that anyone who commits a crime will not want to escape!

In addition to the safety of the city, education is also very important to Henry. He had previously built a university not far from Williams Center. Originally, Henry was going to name this university Williams College, but who knows, there is already a university in the United States called "Williams College", and it is also the first of the liberal arts colleges in American universities!

Williams College represents the essence of the most proud education in the United States – small, high-quality, focused on undergraduate, liberal arts and humanities. Its reputation in the United States is no less than that of Yale, Harvard and other famous schools, and it is more favored by American upper-class families.

The purpose of the College of Arts and Sciences is liberal education, which does not cultivate specific talents, but cultivates high-quality talents, pays attention to comprehensive education, emphasizes the exploration of students' thinking potential, and realizes the development of the whole person in the true sense. Only about 3 percent of college students in the United States graduate from liberal arts colleges, but 19 percent of U.S. presidents are produced. Eight percent of the richest CEOs in the nation by Forbes magazine graduated from liberal arts colleges.

The College of Arts and Sciences still seems to be very good, and Lian Am College is still the first of the College of Arts and Sciences, Henry can't help but rise up the idea of acquiring it, it just so happens that Williams College belongs to private colleges!
