Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

Mid-September.

The new factory of Galaxy Games has been completed. The next thing the engineering team will build is a small office building, as well as laying cement floors, building walls, etc. without affecting the operation of the workshop.

In the early stage, the workshop was built in order to rush the work, and many parts were not done well. The later completion will also increase the cost, but it is worth it. The sooner the workshop is built, the sooner it can be run, and the more money will be earned.

After the workshop was built, Lin Baicheng installed the six production lines that he had bought a long time ago.

Arcade production lines are actually not expensive. The cheapest ones only cost a few hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars. Lin Baicheng couldn't afford the best production line at first, but Phil Smith's unexpected order gave him a lot of money, so he changed the original production line to The best production line, when there are discounts for purchasing six production lines at one time, one production line costs 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars, and it cost Lin Baicheng 9 million Hong Kong dollars.

But these costs are worth it. When a production line is fully staffed with thirty workers, working all day, 100 complete machines can be made in one day. Six production lines equal 600 units. Plus the original two old production lines, every day More than 600 machines can be made.

Based on an average of 600 machines per day, an order for 10,000 machines can be delivered in just over half a month, greatly increasing efficiency.

After this period of time, Taitung Co., Ltd. has delivered part of the motherboard, but Taitung Co., Ltd. has to assemble it into a complete machine after taking it back. Therefore, "Xiangjiang Cube" is not actually on the market for sale in RB, but it should be soon. .

The new factory was built and the production lines were installed. Liu Yihui, who had already recruited employees, arranged for the manpower to start work, with the old people leading the new people to maximize efficiency.

Because the two old production lines were specially designed to make motherboards for Taidong Co., Ltd., only more than 500 complete machines were produced every day. The reason why there are not as many as 600 units is not only that the employees are not skilled enough, but also because some time is inevitably wasted due to bumps and bumps in the process, which is unavoidable.

This time, Lin Baicheng still arranged for employees to work in three shifts, with each person working eight hours a day. Only in this way can the production line's production capacity be maximized.

However, this is not without cost. The factory has more than 600 employees on the production line alone. Including employees in other positions such as security guards and porters, the entire factory has more than 800 employees.

Fortunately, the wages of employees at the bottom of the factory are not very high, and they only work eight hours a day. Therefore, on average, the average salary of more than 800 people is just over HK$500 per person.

In other words, Lin Baicheng's monthly salary is more than 400,000 Hong Kong dollars.

As for Lin Baicheng's arcade machines, even if they are sold in the cheapest places such as Xiangjiangwan Island, he can still earn 2,500 Hong Kong dollars per machine. He can earn back the workers' wages without selling 200 machines every month.

Of course, the premise of all this is that the company is making money, otherwise the monthly salary of more than 400,000 Hong Kong dollars is still a lot of pressure for a company, which is 5 million Hong Kong dollars a year.

Liu Yihui was managing the factory, his sister Lin Shufang was overseeing the finances, and the stock purchases from Yum Securities were in good order. Lin Baicheng could be said to have ignored everything and spent almost the entire day leading Miyamoto Soo and others to develop games.

The game "Pac-Man" is already in Lin Baicheng's mind, so Lin Baicheng and the others don't have to make any detours at all. With Lin Baicheng as a master, the development speed of the game is very fast, and almost half of it is already developed.

If nothing else happens, the game will be developed before the Los Angeles trade show, and then we can take the two games to Los Angeles to participate in the trade show.

Time flies to late September, and it is about to enter October. Taitung Co., Ltd. begins to send the game "Xiangjiang Cube" to the game arcade.

Lin Baicheng found that the price of Taidong Co., Ltd. was much higher than the US$1,500 he paid for takeout, and the external price was US$2,000 per unit.

Not counting the exclusive agent fee, the purchase price of a motherboard from Taitung Co., Ltd. is US$1,200. Even if it costs more to assemble it because the accessories are better, it will only cost an additional three to four hundred US dollars at most. In other words, Taitung Co., Ltd. can earn four to five hundred dollars from one arcade machine.

Not counting the cost of purchasing the goods, since the arcade machine can be sold, the cost of purchasing the goods is not counted as a cost. As a result, Taito Co., Ltd.’s cost is actually only the exclusive agency fee of US$2.5 million.

Based on the profit of 400 US dollars per machine, Taitung Co., Ltd. only needs to sell 6,000 machines to almost earn back the cost of the exclusive agency fee.

After Lin Baicheng discovered the selling price of Taitung Co., Ltd., he felt that his exclusive agency fee was too little, and doubling it was not much.

At the same time, Lin Baicheng also thought that the exclusive agency fee in the United States was too small. After all, the economy of the United States was more developed than RB, not to mention that Phil Smith had obtained the exclusive agency rights for the entire North America.

"Fortunately, I can earn 700 US dollars for a motherboard and 800 US dollars for a complete computer. I earn a lot."

Lin Baicheng could only comfort himself in this way. Only if he earned more could he feel relieved.

In fact, if you switch to another game company, the research and development costs will usually be very high. Unlike Lin Baicheng, who can almost do it all by himself and will not waste money due to research and development mistakes. His research and development funds are very small, so his arcade machines can be so profitable.

Like other game companies, after allocating costs, they can only make money by selling a few thousand machines, and they will lose money if they don't sell that many machines.

Although he felt that Taito Co., Ltd. made a lot of money, Lin Baicheng still paid close attention to the game after it was put on sale by RB and listened to Yamada Hideyoshi's report every day. Yamada Hideyoshi consults Taitung Co., Ltd. on sales every day, and then summarizes and reports to Lin Baicheng.

Taito Co., Ltd. is indeed the largest game company in RB now. The first thousand machines were sold through its channels on the same day. But this is a one-time deal. If the game cannot make the arcade owner make money, then forget about subsequent sales.

But within two days, orders started flying to Taitung Co., Ltd., and the sales volume of the orders increased every day, so that Taitung Co., Ltd. could no longer sell it after a week.

There was no other way. The five thousand motherboards shipped by Galaxy Games were all assembled into arcade machines and sold. Now Taitung Co., Ltd. has begun to urge Galaxy Games to speed up shipments.

This was a good thing. Lin Baicheng immediately converted the two new production lines to specialize in the production of motherboards. In this way, four to five hundred arcade motherboards can be made every day, and all deliveries can be completed in less than half a month.

Of course, what makes Lin Baicheng most happy is that Taidong Co., Ltd. transferred the remaining 50% of the payment, which is US$6 million, to Galaxy Games' account in advance.

Lin Baicheng made another profit.
