Bai Zirui then took Ichiro Koizumi to visit the company's game development department. It can be said that Bai Zirui hired Shigeru Miyamoto, Yuji Horii and others from Nintendo. There are now nearly 20 people in the game development department.

When Ichiro Koizumi saw the "Tank Battle" that was under development, he became even more uneasy. After trying out a few levels of the developed game, he vowed to authorize the Japanese production and sales of this game to SNK, and

Indicates that the price can be increased appropriately.

Ichiro Koizumi said excitedly: "Bai Jun, the "Tank Battle" game developed by your company is completely different from Namco Dream's "Tank Battalion", both in terms of tank modeling and level modeling.

After extensive beautification, the level of detail is simply not the same level, and the explosion effect is even more gorgeous.

This game was simply developed for our Japanese market. We must fully roll it out after our cooperation. I look forward to our win-win cooperation."

Early the next morning, Bai Zirui had just arrived at the company, and Ichiro Koizumi rushed to the company with five people. Under Bai Zirui's guidance, the anti-cracking test began quickly, and five designers from SNK Game Company were conquered during the test.

Already.

Everyone was very satisfied with the test results. Lu Guotian, who came from Wanwan, was surprised to see the Japanese designer asking questions in front of Bai Zirui like a primary school student.

After he and the staff he brought with him tried out the Great Wall Cube arcade game, they immediately judged that it was a classic game that would explode in popularity. The most important thing was that Ichiro Koizumi, the director of SNK Game Company, was negotiating to obtain the game.

This game is authorized to be the production and sales agent in Japan.

He knew that the SNK game company represented by Ichiro Koizumi ranked tenth among the entire Japanese game companies, and even a famous game company like theirs valued this game very much.

Lu Guotian resolutely won the agency rights of Wanwan, and ordered 5,000 units in the first batch at a price of 2,500 US dollars per unit. According to Bai Zirui's estimate, the Great Wall cube arcade game will compete with the tank battle that will be launched in half a month.

Arcade machines should have sales of 8,000-12,000 units in the Bayan market.

In order to complete all orders for Wanwan's arcade machines before April 1983, Bai Zirui had checked the arcade game market in Wanwan before. Wanwan was about to issue a ban on video games, which would last for five years.

In March 1982, the administrative agency passed a resolution to ban unlicensed video game stores and thoroughly investigate arcades containing gambling and pornographic elements. In July, the video game ban was further upgraded. The Bayan authorities stipulated that from April 1983, all owners

Licensed video game stores must also cease operations (there were 591 legal stores in Wanwan at the time), and the government would purchase their arcade machines as financial compensation.

During the video game ban, Wanwan only announced a ban on arcades, and the control of home consoles and other game products was not strict. For example, in 1986, the Nintendo Famicom entered the Wanwan market under the auspices of electronics businessman Zeng Aiyu and was sold on Christmas Day.

A good start.

When lawyer He Yaodi received the notice from Bai Zirui and came to the company to help draft the contract, he couldn't believe that Bai Zirui had achieved such achievements in just three months after coming to Xiangjiang.

Ichiro Koizumi ordered 10,000 copies of the Great Wall Cube game on behalf of SNK Game Company. Bai Zirui authorized SNK Game Company to use anti-cracking encryption software on the copies. A copy of anti-cracking encryption software costs US$100. In other words, SNK Game Company ordered 10,000 copies.

A copy of the Great Wall Cube game costs US$700 per copy.

SNK Game Company also signed a priority agency right for the "Tank Battle" game. The price of each copy is US$800, and the first batch of 15,000 copies will be ordered. The contract period is three years, and there is a priority right to renew after three years.

The total amount of the contract reached 19 million U.S. dollars. In order to reasonably avoid taxes, Bai Zirui signed the contract in the name of an offshore company that had been registered for a long time, Huiding Industrial Holding Investment Company. Finally, Huiding Industrial Holding Investment Company and Dingtian Game Company

Sign a contract to commission arcade machine production.

The signed price is a 20% increase in the actual production cost of the arcade machine. In this way, most of the profits from the sales of the arcade machine will be retained in the account of the offshore company, Huiding Industrial Holdings Investment Company, so there is no need to file a tax return with the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Bureau.

.

After the contract was signed, SNA Game Company transferred the advance payment of US$5 million for the Great Wall Block Game order to the account of Huiding Industrial Holdings Investment Company. The remaining money will be settled after the order is completed.

Bai Zirui knew about Wanwan's future power ban, so he signed a one-year contract with Lu Guotian. Lu Guotian did not have his own arcade factory in Wanwan, and all orders were produced at Dingtian Game Company's factory.

The five thousand Great Wall cube arcade machines totaled US$12.5 million. Lu Guotian also paid an advance payment of US$5 million for the order, and will pay US$5 million after receiving the first batch of arcade machines. The final payment of US$2.5 million will be paid after the arcade contract is completed.

.

Bai Zirui has now completed Great Wall Cube's market layout for Japan and Wanwan. Bai Zirui's next plan is to participate in next year's Western Electronics Show in San Francisco, USA, and bring the two games Great Wall Cube and Tank Battle to the American market.

When the staff of Standard Chartered Bank were counting the day's bank transactions, they thought they were dazzled. When checking out today, they found that there was 10 million US dollars more than usual. However, after careful inspection, they found that it was the account fluctuation of a Huiding Industrial Holding Company.

The staff repeatedly checked and found that well-known companies in Japan and Wanwan were remitting money to this company.

The staff immediately reported it to the manager. After the manager called the remitter bank to inquire about the incident, he reported it to John Sanderson, the chief executive. John Sanderson had been working at Standard Chartered Bank for many years and had always been the chief executive (director).

The right-hand man of the president, he can be said to be the default candidate for the next CEO of Standard Chartered Bank.

The person who reported the report was Zhang Yuhao from the Deposit Department. He is an employee who has worked for Standard Chartered Bank for many years and is currently the director of the commercial client department. Zhang Yuhao reported to John: "General Manager, today our commercial client department is checking the flow.

At that time, we discovered that a company called Huiding Industrial Holdings Investment Company had a large amount of U.S. dollars remitted to the account opened in our bank. Two well-known companies from Japan and Wanwan jointly remitted 10 million U.S. dollars to the account of this company."

John said curiously: "Oh? Is there anything special about this company? Or is there any illegal operation?"

Zhang Yuhao said: "General Manager, there is no illegal operation. We have verified it in detail. It is SNK Game Company in Japan and a game arcade chain company in Wanwan, purchasing an advance payment for an arcade game from Huiding Industrial Holdings Investment Company.

"

John pondered for a moment and said: "The advance payment alone is 10 million US dollars. There is such a game company in Hong Kong. What kind of games does this company produce that are so profitable?"
