Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 25 Taidong's visit
1977 8 Month 15 Day.

Hong Kong Kai Tak International Airport.

Lin Baicheng waited at the airport exit with Liu Yihui, Wu Jianjun and Lei Dashi. They came to pick up the plane this time.

Lin Baicheng and his group did not wait too long, because they had calculated the arrival time of the plane and arrived at the airport ten minutes earlier.

"Mr. Lin, it's Yamada and Xiao Li who are here."

Yamada is Yamada Hideyoshi, and Xiao Li is one of the two employees sent by Xiangjiang to RB. Together with them are three RB people, two men and one woman.

"President!"

Although Hideyoshi Yamada had never met Lin Baicheng, he knew that Lin Baicheng would come to pick him up today, he knew Liu Yihui, and Wu Jianjun and Lei Dashi were standing behind. If he didn't know which one was Lin Baicheng, then he would be too blind.

"Very good, you did a good job this time, please introduce me to the three members of Taito Co., Ltd."

Lin Baicheng patted Yamada Hideyoshi on the shoulder and looked at the other three RBs.

"Yes, President!"

Hideyoshi Yamada can speak some Cantonese, otherwise he would not have been able to do a part-time job at the beginning, and the former factory could not have hired another translator just for him.In the same way, it is the same in the United States, the employee can also speak Cantonese.

"President, this is Akio Nakanishi, the executive of Taito Co., Ltd., next to him is the manager of the sales department, Sato Ishihara, and the last one is Ms. Maunami Nohara, who is in charge of translation."

"Hello, Mr. Nakanishi."

After hearing this, Lin Baicheng stretched out his hand to Akio Nakanishi. He knew that the other party was the person in charge of this negotiation.

Yamada Hideyoshi translated Lin Baicheng's words aloud.

"Hello, Lin Sang!"

Akio Nakanishi reached out his hand and shook Lin Baicheng. He spoke Japanese, which was translated simultaneously by Mauna Nohara.

Lin Baicheng said aloud: "Mr. Zhongxi, I have already booked a hotel for you to stay in. I think you are also tired. Please go to the hotel to have a rest first. I will treat Mr. Zhongxi to have a few drinks in the evening, and we will talk about business tomorrow." how?"

Hideyoshi Yamada translated, Nakanishi Akio did not refuse, and nodded in response.

When the group left the airport, Lin Baicheng and others sent Nakanishi Akio and the others to the hotel before returning to the factory.Yamada Hideyoshi was also left in the hotel by Lin Baicheng to rest, and at the same time he was responsible for acting as a middleman to contact Akio Nakanishi and the others to convey their needs.

The reason why Akio Nakanishi from Taito Corporation and his team came to Xiangjiang this time was to discuss with Xinghe Games the agency rights of Xiangjiang Cube in RB. Hideyoshi Yamada did not have the authority to make decisions, so Akio Nakanishi and the others came to Xiangjiang.

Lin Baicheng was a little surprised when he learned about this, because there was no news from RB for several days, he thought that those companies either didn't like the Xiangjiang Cube game, or they just wanted to buy this game.

Unexpectedly, there was a turnaround. At present, RB's largest game company Taito Co., Ltd. wanted the agency rights of the entire RB, and was willing to come to negotiate. This shows that there is something going on, and there may be another big order.

Therefore, Lin Baicheng warmly received Akio Nakanishi and his party, hoping to negotiate a cooperation that is satisfactory to both parties.

That night, Lin Baicheng and the others served as hosts for Nakanishi Akio and his party. They had dinner first, and then visited the night view of the Xiangjiang River. They didn't go to places like saunas. Lin Baicheng himself didn't like that kind of place very much.

the next day.

Galaxy Game Factory, in the boss's office, began formal negotiations between the two parties.

On Galaxy Games' side are Lin Baicheng, Liu Yihui, and Yamada Hideyoshi, and Taito Co., Ltd. is on Nakanishi Akio, Sato Ishihara, and Nohara Maunami.

After a few words of politeness from both sides, they got to the point.

"Lin Sang, the Xiangjiang Cube developed by your company is indeed a good arcade game. Taito Co., Ltd. is willing to pay a high price to buy the copyright of this game in RB, and then re-produce it."

Akio Nakanishi spoke, and Maunami Nohara translated.

"Mr. Nakanishi, it is indeed possible for your company to buy the permanent arcade rights of Xiangjiang Cube in RB, but I don't think you will be able to accept the price, Mr. Nakanishi."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but smile after hearing the translation. Of course he didn't want to sell the copyright of the entire RB at once, but as he said, if the other party is willing to accept his price, he doesn't mind selling it at all, and he can get a big one at a time. sum of money.

"Lin Sang, how much do you want to sell?"

After listening to Yamada Hideyoshi's translation, Nakanishi Akio hurriedly asked.

"7500 million US dollars, the same price!"

The price Lin Baicheng offered was based on calculations. The price of an arcade machine abroad is 1500 US dollars. After deducting the cost and tariffs, he can earn about half of it. Let it be 750 US dollars, and the price he offered is [-] arcade machines. profits.

According to Lin Baicheng's investigation, after three to five years of sales in RB, a popular arcade game can sell about 30 million units, which is a market worth [-] to [-] million dollars.

At first glance, it seems that Lin Baicheng's bid is not very high, but the premise is that the popular arcade game, Xiangjiang Cube will become popular in RB, it is impossible to predict now, there is an element of gambling.

"$7500 million? That's impossible! The price is too high!"

After hearing the offer, Akio Nakanishi immediately shook his head and rejected it without even thinking about it.

This price is not low, but in Lin Baicheng's view, it is not without sincerity. After all, what is sold is the permanent copyright of the arcade. Taito Co., Ltd. can sell it for more than ten years. With the long-lasting characteristics of Xiangjiang Cube, there is no problem at all. .

Of course, it's just the permanent copyright of the arcade machine, otherwise Lin Baicheng would definitely not have only paid the price of 7500 million US dollars.

"Mr. Nakanishi, as I said, you may not be able to accept the price I offer."

Lin Baicheng smiled and didn't make a big deal. After all, he had no idea of ​​selling the permanent copyright, so he changed the subject: "Mr. Zhongxi, let's talk about agency cooperation. I think your company should have Can't buy out the second set of copyrights?"

"Of course, let's talk about agency cooperation."

Nakanishi Akio nodded, and he stopped talking about buying out the copyright, because the price Lin Baicheng offered was too different from their company's base price.Lin Baicheng's price was 7500 million U.S. dollars, while Taidong Co., Ltd.'s base price was 2000 million U.S. dollars. The former was almost four times the latter. Obviously, the psychological expectations of the two parties were much different, so there was no need to talk.

"As for the agency of Xiangjiang Cube in RB, we are willing to give a three-year authorization, which can be produced by your company. The price cannot be lower than 1500 US dollars. After the contract expires, you have the priority to renew the contract under the same conditions. right."

"We have one more requirement, that is, the game motherboard must be copied in our factory in Xiangjiang. If there are no problems with these, we can talk about the price."

Lin Baicheng first mentioned the conditions on his side, which were the main conditions after he discussed with Liu Yihui.
