Chapter 129: I Want All New York

"Space city? Khan, can your cosmic elevator really work? ”

As president, Ellis naturally knows that rebuilding a city cannot rely entirely on government actions, besides, the U.S. government doesn't have that much power, and there is a deficit in the budget every year.

If you want to rebuild a city, the government can only play a leading role, and the key is to attract private capital to enter.

But there is a prerequisite, that is, what do you use to attract private capital to enter?

In reality, why can many poor places never develop, is it because the policy does not support it? No!

Is it because the local people are too lazy to work? Of course not.

The biggest reason is that the environment there is too unfavorable for development, to use the simplest analogy, the same is to build a national highway, the poor mountains and bad mountains will not only pay several times, or even dozens of times the time and money, but also encounter landslides, earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters.

After a lot of work, people have finished repairing ten roads, and one of them has not been repaired on your side, even if it is repaired, there will be natural disasters from time to time, and it will have to be repaired again, and the cost is too high.

New York has the geographical advantage of becoming the economic center of the United States, and if you look at this alone, there is actually no shortage of private capital.

But this time the war, as well as the previous Scourge Beast incident, New York can be said to be full of disasters.

Many big capitalists have even taken their lives into it, so what qualifications does a city that can't even guarantee their lives have to attract private capital to settle in?

"Mr. President, you should have seen my Justice Mecha, right?"

"Of course, that's really a savior invention!"

When it comes to the Gundam, Ellis is also very interested, after all, who doesn't have a mecha dream.

Especially large mechas, I believe that a man will like them, otherwise, there would be no fire in robot movies and TV series such as Transformers.

"In addition to the use of a magnetic bearing system, which greatly alleviates the joint burden caused by the excessive size of the mecha, my righteous mecha also has a huge breakthrough in materials. Tony is an expert in this regard, and he should have seen it a long time ago. ”

Ellis turned his head to look at Tony, although Tony was very unconvinced, he also had to admit that he was really compared to Wang Khan at this stage.

"Hmph, you guy does have some skills, the materials used in that mecha should be stronger than the best aviation materials today, right?"

"That's right, the materials used by justice can adapt to ultra-low temperatures of minus 180 degrees Celsius, and ultra-high temperatures of minus 3000 degrees, and only such super materials can make it have that kind of mobility and combat effectiveness, otherwise, the moment it breaks through the sound barrier, the mecha will disintegrate."

Banner interjected: "Khan, you mean to say that you have made a major breakthrough in materials science, so the most important steel cable of the cosmic elevator is no longer a problem?" ”

Although Ellis didn't understand this, he also understood what Banner meant, and looked at Wang Khan excitedly.

Wang Khan nodded slightly.

"Although there are still a few minor problems, I am confident that the tightrope problem will be solved within a year!"

"A year?! In other words, the space elevator can be built in a year? ”

Ellis was very excited, as early as when the umbrella announced that it was going to build a space elevator, he consulted experts about relevant knowledge.

The answer is that the elevator cable is the top priority, and if the problem of the steel cable is solved, it is not impossible to build such an elevator with the current aerospace level of the United States.

Seeing Wang Khan's affirmative answer, Ellis's brain began to spin rapidly.

"Mr. President, you must have thought of it, right? Once the cosmic elevator is built, there will be a large number of related enterprises in the surrounding area, including major technology companies, tourism companies, film and television companies, etc. ”

"After all, you can take an elevator to space, which means that the cost of space travel is greatly reduced, and it can even be reduced to a level that ordinary people can afford, and then New York will be more attractive than before, and become the most popular city in the United States, if not the world."

Ellis waved his hand.

"What do you want?"

Wang Khan smiled, this is good for talking to politicians, you don't need to play false, just talk about interests.

"I want the right to use New York for 10 years, and in these 10 years, all the planning and construction of New York City is under our umbrella, and we can use all the land here for free. Of course, we will also submit the relevant planning plan to the state government and the White House, and we will not do anything too out of the ordinary. ”

"After ten years, we will return the right to use the land, and as for the buildings on it, whether you use it yourself or take it out for auction, we don't care, what?"

Such a bold proposal, whether it is Tony or the people of S.H.I.E.L.D., are stupid.

Tony considers himself a bold man, and in order to promote his new energy projects, he will build buildings in major cities across the United States, becoming landmarks in major cities.

However, even he never thought of building a city by himself.

Wang Khan is good, building a building can no longer satisfy him, and he wants to build a city directly? Is this crazy?

But Tony thought about it and felt that this plan actually had a certain degree of feasibility.

First of all, New York is now in ruins, and many of the owners of the land have even been killed, which means that large tracts of land have become terra nullius.

Even if it is not dead, it is only an empty land, and if you want to rebuild it in the ruins, the cost is ......

Secondly, Wang Khan did not directly take all the land in New York, but rented it, and the year was not long, only 10 years.

After 10 years, not only the land will be returned, but it will also be returned along with the buildings on it.

If the Space Elevator is really successfully completed, it is possible that the land price in New York will even increase tenfold in 10 years.

It is equivalent to saying that you only need to sacrifice 10 years of use rights to get ten times or more returns, such a huge return on investment, even Tony himself is a little excited.

And in the whole plan, the most critical is the cosmic elevator, as long as it can be successfully built, then this plan is really possible!

Tony looked at Ellis, who was also frantically calculating the feasibility of this plan, and at the same time he realized that once he agreed to Wang Khan's suggestion, it would be equivalent to making a big gamble in his life!

If he succeeds, his president will go down in history, and his prestige can reach the height of a few presidents such as Founding Father Washington and Lincoln, and his portrait may even be engraved on President Hill.

But once he fails, he will definitely be scolded as a pig's head, but so far, Wang Khan has never disappointed, plus he is now the savior of the United States, a superhero, even if the cosmic elevator really fails, his term of office will be over by then, and he doesn't care about no matter how big the infamy is.

When you think about it this way, you can't lose money!!

"Wang Khan, your plan is very bold, I still need to discuss it with relevant people, if I only express my opinion from my personal point of view, I am quite supportive."

"Thank you, Mr. President, for your support, and I am confident that under your leadership, New York will be able to regain its glory."

The rebuilding of New York was almost over, and then Ellis finally looked at S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Maria Hill, and the trial conference was about to begin.
