At the same time, only large plots of land in the new district can fetch high prices.

Singapore is such a small place, there's not much room to do if you want to.

The land area of ​​Singapore is about the same as that of Shanghai, and you can see that Shanghai basically does not rely on land revenue.

Because the land has already been developed, there is no vacant land left to rely on.

"I will tell you my specific plan in my subsequent speech to Congress."

Zheng Li naturally knew what Li Xianlong was thinking. With just the control effect of magic, none of the people present could resist him.

Lee Hsien Loong planned to retire, but not completely, by becoming a senior cabinet advisor, a position his father had held, and then continue to control most of the power in Singapore by not having to deal with specific matters.

What are you thinking about?

This deal was already irreversible the moment you made it public.

Zheng Li is merely law-abiding; that doesn't mean he lacks temper or ability.

Lee Hsien-lung was still clinging to a gambler's mentality.

Zheng Li deliberately kept Li Xianlong sober, watching helplessly as his cronies and power were wiped out.

Zheng Lili has one step left to take control of Singapore: the handover of the leadership position.

The handover within the party is now complete; the next step is the handover of leadership.

The world's media are extremely excited about the dramatic changes in Singapore.

A mage from an alien civilization becoming the head of a nation on Earth is a historic event.

The impact on geopolitics, the future, and the global economic trend alone is enough for the academic community to study for many years and produce a large number of related academic papers.

China is the last country that wants to see this happen.

Originally, the main body of the mage's control on Earth was in China, so he had the advantage of being the first to benefit.

The technological advantages of Kechuang Biotechnology have brought numerous benefits to China.

Firstly, Kechuang Bio alone has provided tens of thousands of high-paying jobs, and the number of high-paying jobs created by Kechuang Bio's upstream and downstream companies is even greater.

Meanwhile, China is the biggest beneficiary of this technological dividend surrounding the ecosystem of brain-computer interface VR.

The number of emerging terminal enterprises, supply chain enterprises, and software ecosystem enterprises is countless.

Most importantly, it boosted economic confidence, as China was not short of money before.

Judging from social financing data and various fiscal data, China does not lack money, but rather confidence; most people have lost the confidence to start businesses.

When funds circulate aimlessly in the financial sector and fail to flow into the real economy, they cannot generate substantial returns.

The consequences of funds circulating aimlessly in the financial sector include increased financing costs for the real economy, accumulated credit risks, and the emergence of asset bubbles.

With funding flowing into the brain-computer interface VR industry, hot money is pouring into the VR field.

China's real estate bubble was delayed for many years.

There is even hope for a soft landing.

Now that we're in a prime position, the water is heading to Singapore.

The only consolation is that Zheng Li went to Singapore under the identity of Merlin, and at least Zheng Li himself and Kechuang Biotechnology are still in China.

The benefits haven't completely disappeared yet; you can still reap some rewards.

Both domestic and international media outlets reported on it extensively, almost like a frenzy.

For a time, Singaporean and international media flocked to the city.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am now standing in front of the Parliament House in the heart of Singapore, and I am about to pass a resolution regarding Mr. Lee Hsien Loong's transfer of the Chief Executive position to Grand Master Merlin."

With the DAP remaining strong and the Workers' Party holding only thirteen directly elected opposition seats, observers believe the opposition will be unable to prevent the passage of this bill.

Furthermore, some opposition lawmakers have privately expressed their pleasure at seeing Merlin become the head of Singapore, believing it would bring positive changes to the city.

We will have the results in an hour.

If the bill passes, Merlin will deliver his first public address as Singapore's leader in front of Parliament House.

Currently, we can see that journalists from both China and abroad, including those from the BBC, have all gathered here.

Everyone is anxiously awaiting the final result, wondering if there will be any last-minute changes.

Both Zheng Li and Li Xianlong control a large amount of social resources and have a certain degree of control over Singapore.

Therefore, there is no reason why an agreement that both sides want to reach should fail.

However, after the agreement was reached, the future envisioned by both parties differed greatly.

Li Wanqing took leave and sat in front of the television with his wife at home, watching the latest news reports.

Actually, it wasn't just him who took leave; most Singaporeans took leave today.

The reality of this development feels surreal to everyone in Singapore.

Or rather, it's not just Singaporeans who find it magical; people from other countries find it magical too.

English netizens complained: "How come our country's archmage went to Singapore to become the head of state?"

10 Downing Street needs Merlin!

American netizens are concerned about: "Will magic become widespread in Singapore in the future, and is it still too late to immigrate to Singapore now?"

After Zheng Licheng became the party leader, the immigration channel to Singapore was immediately closed, and all applications will have to wait until after this incident to reopen.

However, the price of immigration will change when the market reopens.

Li Wanqing had some suspicions about Zheng Li's identity, and he thought that Zheng Li and Mei Lin had some kind of connection.

As for Zheng Li being Merlin, he had also speculated about it, but there was no evidence to confirm it.

This time, Li Wanqing wanted to see what Merlin would look like when he gave his speech.

Singapore has only three television stations: Mediacorp, StarHub, and Singtel. The first one is free, while the latter two are paid.
