Reborn Tokyo Golden Age.

Chapter 271 Unexpected Profits

The bright sky light gradually climbed into Bai Chuanfeng's closed eyes through the gaps in the curtains.

Feeling the light, he opened his eyes slightly, but the room was still a bit dim.

He turned his head and glanced at the clock by the bed, it was almost eight o'clock.

Alas, the winter is short, and the sun has not fully risen at this point.

After getting used to it for a while, he turned his head and looked at the sleeping person beside him.

Her white and tender thighs hung around her waist, and her soft arms pressed against her cheeks.

Tsk, he looked like a little wild cat last night, but now he's turned into a little white sheep again.

Thinking about that pair of little tiger teeth, Bai Chuanfeng still wants to take a breath.

He didn't expect Seiko Matsuda to master the heat to the point of perfection.

Slightly numb, slightly itchy, but not hurtful.

Unexpectedly, she was quite good at serving people, so Bai Chuanfeng gently moved her away without disturbing her lucid dream.

Tired all night, still need a good rest.

He quietly got out of bed barefoot and walked to the French window of the bedroom.

Fingers lifted a corner of the curtain, and the bustling Tokyo in the morning appeared impressively underfoot.

People in thick winter coats hurriedly walked on the streets, and there was an endless stream of passing cars.

Facing the belated morning sun, Bai Chuanfeng looked at his naked self.

A trace of absurdity and unspeakable pleasure lingered in his chest.

He doesn't know how other people's lives are, but at this moment he feels happy.

Indeed, it must be nice when you can ravage your life.

This is a high-end apartment in the port area. He is located on a high floor and can see most of the street scenes in the port area by slightly moving his eyelids from top to bottom.

Sure enough, it is necessary to enjoy life once in a while.

"Bai Chuan-kun~" A soft and waxy voice sounded from behind, and a pair of white and tender arms also came around from his waist.

"Wake up." Bai Chuanfeng didn't turn his head, still looking out of the window.

"Hmm~" There was a coquettish hum from the back, and her cheeks were pressed tightly against his back.

"Do you want to rest for a while?" The two bamboo shoots behind him made Bai Chuanfeng's blood surge.

"No~" Jiaoheng became more and more clear.

"Alright then." Bai Chuanfeng opened the curtain in front of him.

Brush, the dazzling sunlight instantly sprinkled into the house.

"Hey!" Matsuda Seiko exclaimed, subconsciously clinging to her.

"Ha ha"

She, who was also naked, was startled by the sudden intrusion of the sun.

"It's really annoying~"

"Don't worry, I'm blocking it in front."

"That won't work either." Seiko Matsuda hurriedly found pajamas and put them on indiscriminately.

"By the way, I didn't go back at night. It doesn't matter where your parents are."

Bai Chuanfeng knew that recently, she brought her parents to live in Tokyo.

Her father happened to be retiring this year, and her mother was studying hard, so she decided to live here for a while.

Seiko Matsuda paused for a while while putting on his clothes, and then returned to normal.

"It's okay, my mother said that I have reached the age of free love."

After listening to her explanation, Bai Chuanfeng didn't say anything more.

Seeing that she was still looking for clothes, Bai Chuanfeng stepped forward and carried her directly to the bathroom.

"Eh?"

"Okay, stop barking. I haven't finished my homework in the morning, so I'm in a hurry to get dressed."

"But the Holy Son is very tired."

"Persistence is victory."

"Has Bic camera also started making money?"

"Hayi, according to the current operating situation, Shirakawa Holdings is expected to have a profit dividend of about 4000 million yen by the end of the year."

In the office, Bai Chuanfeng and Arai Yu are sitting together, checking the business situation of this year.

As the end of the year approaches, companies are doing the same thing.

Although the financial settlement is at the end of March, the business situation for the year can be summarized in advance.

The overall accounting is in charge of Baichuan Holdings, and there are more than a dozen people in the financial team alone.

Even in order to improve the efficiency of group management and capital use, Bai Chuanfeng is considering hiring a third-party financial company to provide more professional services.

The stalls are getting bigger and bigger, and more and more people need to supervise the finances.

It seems uneconomical to specially recruit a large number of financial talents just for the purpose of annual settlement.

At this time, a third-party financial company may well be an option.

But let's save these things for next year, let's make do with it today.

To Bai Chuanfeng's surprise, the profit of Bic camera, which has the weakest presence, turned out to be very good this year.

You must know that Shirakawa Holdings only owns 25% of its shares, and the profit dividend can be 4000 million yen.

That shows that its overall profit is at least 2 million yen, and it is growing very fast.

Bic camera is now basically maintaining the expansion rate of 10 stores per year, which is not bad in the retail industry, but not the most powerful.

With such an expansion rate, last year it was able to maintain a balance of payments, and this year it will be able to make so much profit.

This shows that the economy is going up and people have a strong desire to consume.

Undoubtedly, this is good news for Baichuan Electric.

Whether it is a Walkman, a handheld, or the planned CD player, they are all consumer electronics products.

The public's desire to buy is strong, and their market is getting wider.

"Notify the Walkman and Handheld Business Department that the New Year's stocking at the end of the year will increase by 30% on the basis of the same period last year."

Assistant Komatsu, who was waiting sternly for "Hayi", immediately picked up a brush and wrote it down.

Based on the feedback from the retail industry, Bai Chuanfeng predicted that the market would be more optimistic.

So immediately adjust your marketing strategy to deal with the possible buying wave in the new year.

Market intelligence is often hidden in these inconspicuous information. It seems that it is necessary to summarize the news from various channels.

Bai Chuanfeng has already pondered in his heart whether it is possible to set up a special market intelligence department within Bai Chuan Holdings.

This department collects all market information, whether it is useful or useless, and is screened and sorted by a special person.

After summarizing, it is handed over to the corresponding department for operational reference.

"In addition to Bic camera, Anke Electric is expected to have [-] to [-] million yen in revenue."

"Not bad" Bai Chuanfeng is quite satisfied with Anke Electric.

The profit of two to three hundred million yuan does not include the cost of OEM for Baichuan Electric, but the profit of Anke's own OEM for other brands.

Since the merger with Oda Production, the original Kimura Production has transformed into the current Anke Electric.

Last year, while regaining its vitality, it assumed the role of Shirakawa Electric's OEM factory.

After more than half a year of development, it is now also looking for OEM services for other manufacturers.

After all, as the scale expands, if the excess production capacity cannot be utilized, it will be a waste of resources.

Neon's export of electronic products is in full swing, and there is no need to worry about orders.

Coupled with the endorsement of a well-known manufacturer such as Shirakawa Electric, Anke Electric, which has undergone a makeover, is now considered a little famous.

I believe this year's [-]-[-] million revenue is just the beginning, and it will create more profits for Shirakawa Holdings next year.

However, Anke Electric's current factories are concentrated in Arakawa District, and PCB board processing involves a part of chemical industry, which has a certain burden on the environment.

Therefore, Bai Chuanfeng predicts that if the Tokyo Metropolitan Government mobilizes factories to relocate next time, Encore Electric is likely to be in the first echelon.

It seems that it should be considered in advance about its location.

Kawasaki may not be able to do this kind of chemical enterprise.

Because this is against the Kanagawa government's planning principles for the transition to high-precision industries.

But no matter how it involves chemical industry, it is basically inseparable from water.If the Tama River doesn’t work, then find another city near the water.

It is best to be near Tokyo, which is conducive to the rapid integration of resources.

In this way, the circuit boards produced by it can be directly sent to Kawasaki for assembly of Shirakawa Electric products, saving time, effort and freight.

"In addition to the handheld business at the HAL Research Institute, the newly established computer game department this year has also begun to make profits."

Arai Yu took the report and reported one by one, as long as it was under Shirakawa Holdings, it was within his responsibility.

"You made a profit so soon?" Hearing the news, Bai Chuanfeng was honestly a little surprised.

HAL's computer game department has only been established for a long time. If I remember correctly, it should be officially established in the middle of the year.

Even if it is calculated until the end of the year, it will only be half a year. This profit rate is too fast.

Seeing Bai Chuanfeng was a little surprised, Arai Yuya explained HAL's computer game department in detail.

"In the past six months, the computer game department has only produced one game."

"What game?" Bai Chuanfeng frowned.

Arai Yu looked at the report in his hand and gave the answer, "Pac-Man".

It turned out to be it, Bai Chuanfeng suddenly realized.

What is the hottest game this year?That must be "Pac-Man" without a doubt.

Although it came out last year, it only ushered in a big explosion in sales this year.

The arcade machines at Namco have shipped 10,000+ units in Neon’s homeland this year alone, and the number will double several times including North America.

The copyright of the home game console was taken by Atari, and more than 400 million copies of the game cassette were sold.

More than 400 million copies, seeing this news, Bai Chuanfeng couldn't wait to develop his own game console.

Don't forget, the game copyright of Neon Native is in the hands of Baichuan Electric.

In addition, according to Bai Chuanfeng's own understanding, Namco's "Pac-Man" brought nearly 2.3 million US dollars in revenue this year alone.

2.3 million U.S. dollars, nearly 570 billion yen. This figure is higher than the annual profit of Shirakawa Electric Neon.

Bai Chuanfeng wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth viciously. It is a world-class game with terrifying ability to attract money.

Now it seems that, as guessed at the beginning, "Pac-Man" has become a hen that can lay golden eggs.

Fortunately, Baichuan Electric also got on a free ride smoothly.It can be foreseen that in the next year, it will also get a share.

Swallowing his throat, Bai Chuanfeng returned to reality. "How many copies of our computer game did you sell?"

"A total of 20 copies in half a year, each priced at 3260 yen." Arai Yu immediately gave the answer.

20 copies, 3260 yen, that is more than 6 million yen in sales.

Bai Chuanfeng regained his energy in an instant. What is the cost of computer games?It's just labor and time.

It just so happens that in this era, these two things do not account for much of the cost of game production.

That is to say, out of the more than 6 million yen, excluding the platform commission, most of it will be pure profit.

Wonderful, as expected of "Pac-Man", there is so much money in every corner.

"Komatsu, remember to make a note. Let HAL develop another version of "Pac-Man" for NEC's PC-8801 computer."

"Hay," Assistant Xiaosong responded crisply.

Hey, why do computer games need to be developed separately for different brands?
