Chapter 1102 Controversy over dues
Subsequently, Okamoto announced some regulations of the World Gambling Federation, mainly aimed at the professional conduct of these large casinos.

For example, retaliation against major customers is not allowed-although this kind of thing exists to varying degrees in many places.Some unscrupulous casinos have even assassinated customers. The reason is that gamblers have won too much money from the casino, exceeding the psychological bottom line of the casino.

There are also some regulations. For example, full-time registered masters of casinos, such as He Jingxin, are not allowed to play games in other casinos at will, so as to avoid internal chaos in the gambling industry; The bottom line of national and regional government authorities has triggered government authorities to suppress or even eliminate the local gambling industry...and so on.

In the final analysis, these rules are of positive significance, and are also good for the casino's own development.Although it is not uncommon for some casinos to secretly violate some regulations, on the surface everyone abides by the corresponding regulations.

Therefore, the existence of the World Gambling Federation has its practical significance, and has played a good role in coordinating and regulating the development of the entire gambling industry.In this regard, Gao Longzang also expressed his unconditional acceptance, and was willing to sign and approve on the spot.

However, the last point that Okamoto said made Gao Longzang unacceptable.

I saw Okamoto sneered and said: "In addition, every large casino is a member unit of the Gambling Federation, so this 'membership fee' is indispensable, and it is also the basic cost of maintaining the operation of the federation. And your gambling boat And Lisboa Casino, each venue has to pay 500 million US dollars in dues to the federation every year."

500 million, US dollars!

Gambling boats and casinos add up to 1000 million dollars a year!

Although the casino industry is a big profitable business, 1000 million US dollars is not a small amount, which is equivalent to 6000 million Huaxia coins.

Be aware that this is an annual "annual membership fee".And casinos are long-term businesses, how can they go out of business after a year or so?Even in the short term, if Gao Longzang has been in operation for ten years, will he have to pay [-] million Huaxia coins?

This is too cruel!
Regarding this number, Gao Longzang immediately expressed his objection.Because Gao Longzang still knew about the request for membership dues.

It is true that the Oda family members on the Dragon Zang had all left, but many management personnel of the Lisboa Casino have stayed.Those high-level executives, such as the chief financial officer, still know the standards for paying membership dues.

According to the regulations of the World Gambling Federation, the annual dues paid by these large casinos range from 100 million US dollars to 500 million US dollars, mainly for the annual income of the casinos and the size of the main operating area.

Gao Longzang did not resist the payment of membership dues.After all, the federation will also provide a lot of convenience for each casino, maintain the normal operation of each casino, and help you coordinate when something big happens... These are of course the conveniences that membership should enjoy.Since you enjoy the convenience, you have to pay some money, which is normal.

However, Okamoto's price tag is too high!
According to regulations, the Longzang gambling ship fully complies with the standard of a "new casino", so it can only accept the standard of 100 million US dollars in the first three years;
As for the Lisboa Casino, although it has fully reached the strength of an annual fee of 400 million US dollars, it may have operated properly before, so it only pays 200 million US dollars per year.

Adding up the two venues, there should only be a membership fee of 300 million US dollars.However, Okamoto asked Gao Longzang to pay 1000 million US dollars!

Obviously, this is Okamoto using his authority to take personal revenge.

"Sorry, this number is unacceptable. Especially the Longzang gambling ship, which has just opened in my hands, and has just been transferred to the new area of ​​Hong Kong City. It is considered a brand new gambling ship. As far as I know, the federation stipulates such In the past few years, the venue had to pay the membership fee according to the minimum standard, in order to support the development of the new venue.”

Okamoto sneered triumphantly, and said: "The Lisboa Casino and the Ryuzo gambling ship are both operating in Asia, so I naturally have the right to make relevant decisions. You said that the Ryuzo is a new gambling ship? I'm sorry, it was previously The Fujita has been in business for many years, so I would not include it in the list of new casinos."

As he said that, Okamoto stared at Gao Longzang with a provocative gaze.That meaning is too obvious - I just want to play with you, it depends on you!
What if you don't pay the dues?OK, I can't wait!At that time, you will not be a member of the World Gambling Federation, and you will not be protected by the rules of the World Gambling Federation.

Gao Longzang really wanted to use the soles of his shoes to measure the length of Okamoto's face.However, he finally held back, and went outside to call Song Jiannan.

"Uncle Song, the Lisboa Casino can be called the world's top casino, but it only pays a membership fee of 200 million US dollars every year. It seems that it is not a small face."

On the other side of the phone, Song Jiannan laughed and said, "You boy! Why, the representative of the World Gambling Federation is here to blackmail you into paying more dues?"

Yay, the old fox is smart enough to guess it right away.

Gao Longzang didn't hide it either, but admitted it with a smile.

Song Jiannan said with a smile: "Who is here? Is that bastard Okamoto? Leave him alone, the Lisboa Casino still follows the old rules, giving them 200 million a year; as for your Longzang, which is a new venue, 100 million a year It makes sense. Talk to him, if you can't agree, don't bother him, uncle, let me ask for you."

Gao Longzang was immediately overjoyed.Judging from this tone, it seems that Song Jiannan has a lot of face.

And Gao Longzang knew that people like Song Jiannan would not brag.If he dares to agree so easily, it shows that he has confidence.

Therefore, Gao Longzang returned to the room and said, "I'm sorry, the Lisboa Casino is 200 million, and the Longzang Number is 100 million, that's all!"

Okamoto said angrily: "No! Each family has 500 million US dollars, no less than a dollar! Unless you choose not to join the World Gambling Federation and become a member of the Federation!"

This bastard really got into a fight with Gao Longzang.Since he has the power in his hand, this guy always wants to use it.

However, Gao Longzang refused to budge.He didn't even speak, just smoked without saying a word, with a look of disdain and disdain on his face.This made Okamoto very angry.

But at this time, a call came, and Okamoto saw the number and connected immediately.

On the other side of the phone, it turned out to be the chairman of the World Gambling Federation, the number one leader in the entire world of gambling!

"Okamoto, the membership fee of the Lisboa Casino follows the old regulations, and the new gambling ship Ryuzo is set at US$100 million per year, so that's it."

Uh... Okamoto was dumbfounded: "No, the Lisboa Casino and the Longzang are within my Asia range, and I have the right to decide their dues payment standards!"

There was silence on the phone for a few seconds, and then the chairman of the federation said: "Yes, this is indeed your authority."
