Chapter 146 The Goal of Zero Crime Rate

The next day.

In Wu Yisu's bar.

"Boss Wu, please give me another drink!"

A sturdy man, whose body was almost half transformed into a mechanical body and wearing a corporate military combat uniform, raised his empty glass and shouted towards the bar.

Wu Yisu nodded: "Wait a minute, I'll be there soon!"

After a while, Wu Yisu held the tray and filled the sturdy man's glass with wine.

Although Wu Yisu's bar has opened more than a dozen branches in Liming City and has even planned to open branches in other cities, and although his net worth has skyrocketed and he no longer needs to do these hard work himself, Wu Yisu still occasionally comes to his original store and serves wine to customers himself.

He still misses this feeling.

Someone asked, "Boss Wu, many people are fleeing Dawn City recently. Are you going to run away too?"

Wu Yisu smiled and said, "All my wealth and business are in Dawn City. Even if I want to run away, where can I go?"

The person who asked nodded and said, "Yeah, everyone is the same. If I want to run away, there is nowhere to run! Oh, this damn God, the snow outside has never stopped since some time ago, and I don't know when it will stop."

The sturdy man who was half transformed into a mechanical body and wearing a corporate military combat uniform took a sip of wine: "Damn it, I would rather be in the wild base than here. I am worried all day long. No one knows when the crazy people of the Space Knights will suddenly jump out and launch a new attack. I would rather go to the wild to fight space creatures!"

The atmosphere in the bar can basically represent the current atmosphere of Dawn City.

In short, it's hard to bear!

The previous series of turmoil has made all citizens completely unable to trust the safety of Dawn City. Although the Space Knights have not caused trouble recently, it is more painful for ordinary people to live.

The time and space activities outside have not ended, and the rich are fleeing one after another. The whole Dawn City has fallen into a half-dead state.

But for these people, there is no way to leave Dawn City, and there is no way to change the status quo, so they can only eat and wait for death every day.

At this time, someone said: "By the way, speaking of which, the assessment period for the latest batch of first-level councilors should be about to begin, right? There should be first-level councilors broadcasting to their jurisdictions in the next few days. It seems that our jurisdiction has been assigned to Mr. Chen of Lishan Technology?"

Others obviously had no interest, and after a while someone talked to him.

"Instead of watching the broadcasts of these councilors, it is better to play Black Super Dream."

Others also echoed.

"That's right. The broadcasts of these councillors are basically the same. They are full of nonsense. I don't know if they are copied from the same template."

"Basically, only those people in the slums will listen to the welfare content. Only the homeless care about the little profit."

"Liming City is already hopeless, and there are still people who want to elect first-level councillors? Those who can be elected as first-level councillors don't run away quickly? Boss Chen is confused!"

"Who knows what they are thinking? Maybe it's just because the situation in Liming City is not optimistic recently, so the position of first-level councillor is easier to pick up?"

Wu Yisu didn't say much, just turned on the display screen in the bar and tuned to a specific channel.

The first-level councillors trusted by Liming City basically have broadcasts, which are nothing more than explaining the new policies and new benefits they have formulated for the jurisdiction after becoming first-level councillors. Generally speaking, they are very templated and there won't be too many tricks.

After all, it doesn't matter if the broadcast speaks nonsense or clichés, but if you say big words and can't do it, then it's more problematic.

Therefore, these councillors are basically cautious and will not mess around, nor will they create too many variables for their step-by-step promotion path.

After becoming a first-level councillor, Chen She chose several nearby blocks as his jurisdiction. In fact, this matter has been known for a long time, and he is just waiting for a broadcast to introduce the rules of governance in the jurisdiction.

Not long after, the screen appeared.

It was still the familiar boss Chen, who was dressed very formally today, in a suit and tie, facing the camera with a serious face. You don’t need to look to know that there must be a prompt board behind the camera, and the content to be said must have been on the prompt board.

There were basically no people watching in the bar, so they continued to drink and talk about their own things.

Soon, the boss Chen on the monitor spoke.

"Hello, voters in the jurisdiction, I am the new district councillor Chen She..."

There was nothing special about the opening remarks. Like other first-level councillors, it was nothing more than a simple self-introduction, and then a brief explanation of the changes he planned to make to the jurisdiction in the future.

These are basically empty words. After all, everyone can say nice things, but how much can be achieved in the end is not certain.

The key lies in two aspects: the first is the key goals to be achieved during this term, and the second is the specific measures taken during the term as a legislator.

The first point is equivalent to a general direction. For example, if some legislators put forward the focus on the economy, then it is certain that there will be a series of major investment promotion policies in the future; while some legislators put forward the focus on people's livelihood, then the next policy will definitely be to provide welfare, improve the bottom security and so on.

Although many specific measures may not be perfectly implemented, this general direction can at least reflect a certain tendency of this councillor. For example, some councillors who shouted slogans to improve the lives of the lower classes, although the lives of the lower classes may not have any fundamental changes, at least they can have a good life in the short term.

The people in the bar listened in a disjointed manner, and even those who listened carefully were waiting for these two points.

Finally, Chen She on the display screen talked about the main topic.

"During my term, the key goal to be achieved is: zero crime rate!"

Chen She said this sentence sonorously and consciously raised the tone, so even in the noisy environment of the bar, many people still heard it clearly.

Then, there was an uproar in the bar!

Many people heard it clearly, but they couldn't believe their ears.

"What? Did I hear you right?"

"Zero crime rate?"

"Is Mr. Chen out of his mind? Didn't you ask someone to read your speech before you spoke?"

"How is it possible to have a zero crime rate! Let alone zero crime, even if it's just to reduce the crime rate, it's very troublesome!"

The bar, which was originally relatively quiet, suddenly became noisy, but then someone shouted a few words, and everyone quieted down again, looking at the display screen.

Obviously, no one present expected Chen She to propose such a goal.

Because this goal is too difficult!

Some goals sound difficult, but they are very simple to do, such as developing the economy of the jurisdiction and improving the lives of the people in the jurisdiction. In fact, you only need to invest money in construction, or give some benefits to the grassroots people, and that can be regarded as achieving the goal.

After all, the congressman didn't say to what extent the improvement would be.

However, reducing the crime rate is much more difficult!

To achieve this, it is nothing more than asking DCPD to increase police force and arrest the gangsters as soon as they are found to have committed illegal and criminal acts.

But there are too many problems with this: where will the additional police force come from? Where will the arrested gangsters be imprisoned? Will DCPD give you this face and cooperate so well?

A council member of the Auburn Prison Group once came up with a brilliant model of prison commercialization, using the arrest of small gangsters as a means of revenue, but in Dawn City, this method is probably not feasible.

Moreover, the most critical point is that the high crime rate in Dawn City is ultimately due to the large number of idle people at the bottom. If their livelihood problems are not solved, no matter how many criminals are arrested, there will be endless criminals.

By then, a lot of money has been spent, but the crime rate has not been significantly reduced, or the voters in the jurisdiction do not feel it clearly, then the problem will be big.

Many first-level council members are just going through the motions in the jurisdiction, but even if it is just a formality, it has to be acceptable. What if it causes widespread dissatisfaction among voters and cuts off the original way of going through the motions?

On the display screen, Chen She continued: "As for how to achieve this, it will not be announced for the time being. However, please rest assured that I will not consume too much police force of DCPD. To be more precise, my goal does not require the cooperation of DPCD."

"Please pay attention to the changes in the jurisdiction patiently!"
