Chapter 727: Welcome to Apple City

Apple City, Canada.

It has been a year and seven months since the Canadian government's world-wide 'land separation' behavior, and the time has come to January 2014.

Some people once used Huaxia speed to describe the incredible development speed of a city, but today, there is no adjective that can describe the development speed of Apple City.

Strictly speaking, the construction of Apple City began nearly four years ago, when Wenming's Apple company was just rising, and in order to find a suitable location to build its headquarters, Wenming chose the shores of Lake Ontario, Canada.

Later, Wen Ming joined the SHSD organization, which was still affiliated with the U.S. government at the time, and through 'persuasion', the SHSD organization also determined the construction site of the new headquarters as the vicinity of Apple's headquarters, also on the shores of Lake Ontario.

Construction of these two new headquarters began, which was recognized as the beginning of the development of Apple City.

But a year and seven months ago, within the scope of Apple City, only Wenming and Wenming-related industries gathered, although there were other service industries that extended out because of the gathering of people, but before many people were unsure of the future of Apple City, there were not too many 'outsiders' gathered to live in Apple City.

When the Canadian government announced that the administrative jurisdiction and security jurisdiction of Apple City belonged to Wenming, even if there was an uproar in the world, many people rushed to Apple City at the first time, their sense of smell was very keen, and they knew that the development of a new city was full of business opportunities.

Even people who don't have the capital to do business know that Apple City has a lot of opportunities.

Today, Apple City has a resident population of more than 3 million.

Compared with well-known cities in the world, such as New York in the United States, several first-tier cities in China, etc., the number of resident residents in Apple City is very small. However, what is clear to everyone is that this is only because Apple's infrastructure has not kept up, causing the Appletown government to limit the increase in the number of residents.

How much infrastructure is needed for three million people to eat, drink, and Lazar?

It is a miracle that Apple City has been able to complete all the infrastructure needed to meet the needs of three million residents in such a short period of time.

Of course, it's not all Wen Ming's efforts, but also those speculators who see business opportunities, no, the help of investors.

"According to the report of the Wall Street Financial Times, we have reason to believe that the most profitable industry of the superhero Mr. Wen Ming is not his Apple company, nor his Tesla company, nor Nokia, which has released three series of a total of 6 mobile phones in a year and a half, returning to the top of the global mobile phone manufacturer's sales list."

A tour group on a double-decker electric sightseeing bus while watching the rather modern architecture of Apple City while listening to their guide's explanation.

"Yes, Wall Street financial industry experts believe that one of the most profitable industries for the superhero Mr. Wen Ming is his Apple City. Because all of Appletown's output is attributable to the Apple City government, the Canadian government has confirmed that they have signed a 10-year tax exemption clause. In other words, within ten years, Apple City will not have to pay a penny to the Canadian government. ”

The tour guide didn't look at the lines at all, and she had already memorized these contents.

"But at the same time, Mr. Wen Ming's most expensive industry is also Apple City." The tour guide said: "Many people know that the construction of a city requires a lot of capital investment, and this kind of capital investment has always been borne by the country where the city is located. Although Mr. Wen Ming's Apple City does not need to pay taxes to the Canadian government, the Canadian government will not give Apple City even a Canadian dollar allocation, and a large amount of funds for the early construction of Apple City need to be borne by Mr. Wen Ming himself. ”

"Looking at it this way, Mr. Wen Ming will definitely suffer a loss from the ten-year tax exemption clause, because he can't move out of Apple City, and one day it will be taken back by the Canadian government."

The last sentence of the tour guide summarized, sparked a discussion among tourists, some people think that the tour guide is right, and some people think that the Canadian government cannot take back Apple City, the so-called ten years of tax exemption, is only temporary, and when the ten-year period arrives, the Canadian government will inevitably find a new tax exemption period.

As the discussion arose, they passed by Nokia's headquarters.

"This Nokia building was built by a well-known Chinese architectural team, and it only took them half a year to build this 33-storey twin tower." The tour guide said: "At that time, many people were worried about the quality of the twin buildings, but it turned out that the quality of Huaxia's construction was directly proportional to their speed. ”

(ps: I know there will be people who will complain, but I still want to say that this kind of thing must be Huaxia, not patriotic, but fast and of good quality.) Premise: Construction abroad! )

"After Nokia was acquired by Mr. Wen Ming, it was immersed in it for nearly a year, and a year and a half ago successfully released their new generation of flagship models 'Gaigoo' series, based on the openness of the Android system, Gaishi 1 even threatened iPhone sales for a time."

"In addition to the flagship models, they also released two models aimed at the low-end market, and after combining Apple's design team, in just a year and a half, the total sales of six mobile phones released by Nokia have allowed Nokia to regain the top spot in sales this year."

"Apple, which should have felt the pressure of competition, did not have any pressure, because they still accounted for 90% of the hardware profits in the global mobile phone market, while Nokia accounted for the remaining 8%, and most importantly, these two companies belong to Mr. Wen Ming."

During the introduction, the double-decker sightseeing bus arrived at Apple's headquarters, and then took the 'high-speed rail' to the shores of Lake Ontario, where S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters are located.

There is no subway in Apple City, because the construction time of the subway is too long, so Apple City has opted for 'high-speed rail', a high-speed short-distance train that runs on a viaduct.

This kind of 'high-speed rail' generally appears in film and television works, and it is a film and television work with a science fiction nature, because compared with the subway, although the construction time of this kind of 'high-speed rail' will be shortened, the cost will rise significantly, and the safety is not as good as the subway.

Therefore, when tourists take the 'high-speed rail', they can feel that Apple City is different from other cities.

Modernization is no longer enough to describe, it should be described as a science fiction city.

Not only the 'high-speed rail', there is not a single fuel car in the whole Apple City, and all the means of transportation are electric, which can be called new energy in the current environment.

Unlike some places that use extremely polluting 'thermal power generation' and then claim new energy reform, Apple City generates electricity in the form of 'photovoltaic' power generation installations on the facades of all major buildings in Apple City, as well as the soon-to-be-completed nuclear power plant.

A city has built a nuclear power plant just to supply electricity to the city, and you can imagine the future of the city.

Visitors arrived outside S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters and were not authorized to enter, and they were only able to take pictures outside.

The 'sheriffs' of Apple City, who wore the uniforms of S.H.I.E.L.D., very politely signaled to visitors where they could and where they could not take pictures.

Someone among the tourists said: "Some people say that Apple City is not democratic, but which country's intelligence services, secret services, will let tourists visit and take pictures?" ”

Although his companion agreed with him, he retorted: "S.H.I.E.L.D. is not an intelligence department or a secret service department, they are the guardians of the earth. Moreover, S.H.I.E.L.D. is affiliated with the United Nations, not to any country. ”

Amid the discussion, today's tour is coming to an end, and this group of tourists, as well as several other waves of tourists, are preparing to return.

Then there was a sudden exclamation, followed by cheers.

There were also some dazed tourists, following the sight of other cheering tourists and looking at the sky.

They cheered, too.

One silver and one white, one pure black, two sets of 'Mingguang' armor in the sky from far to near, and when passing them, the two sets of 'Mingguang' armor suddenly stood still in the air.

"Welcome to Apple City!"

A voice that was very familiar to all rang out, and no one doubted that it was coming from the silver-white 'Mingguang' armor.

Because it was the voice of Wen Ming, the voice of Mr. Wen Ming, the richest man in the world, the greatest scientist of all time, the savior, the superhero, and the king of Apple City.

City Lord?

No, it's the king!
