"Like a cafeteria meal ticket?" Huang Shi immediately recalled that when he was in college, the meal tickets in those cafeterias, at that time, it was estimated that they were not PVC plastic, but the kind of old-fashioned plastic sheets, and the tickets were about the same size as the tickets at that time, and they were soft in his hand.

However, the printing quality of the ticket is really not complimentary, it feels like it is handwritten, but one thing is that it is very waterproof, no matter how you soak it in the water, it will not fade or break, and it can really be used for several years.

So Huang Shi asked, "What about the printing quality?" ”

Qi Ye replied, "It's very exquisite, the four-color printing almost has a photo effect." ”

"Oh, that's right." Huang Shi thought to himself that maybe his skills had improved, and what he couldn't do back then could be done now.

"However, if you use PVC, you can no longer use conventional offset printing, you have to use screen printing. Because PVC is used as a coating, the surface is smooth and waterproof, but it does not absorb ink, so it cannot be used as paper for regular printing. ”

Silk screen printing, Huangshi is known to the way, because it belongs to the stencil printing, and together with lithographic, embossing, gravure printing is known as the four major printing methods. Stencil printing includes transcription, perforated patterning, spray printing and screen printing.

The principle of its printing is to make the printing plate, that is, the paper film plate or other plates of the plate base to make the holes that can pass through the ink, and when printing, through a certain pressure, the ink is transferred to the substrate through the holes of the plate, which may be paper, or ceramic, etc., and the image or text is formed after the most cowardice.

Huang Shi is not interested in this printing method, he only cares about the cost and effect, "How much worse is the price than the security security paper?" ”

"Of course, it is more expensive, for example, securities anti-counterfeiting paper costs 1,700 yuan, PVC paper costs about 1,900 yuan, and a ton is almost 5,000 yuan."

"Will it be easier to fade when printed on this plastic?" Huang Shi then asked.

"You can rest assured, after the PVC is printed, you will have to go through the UV machine again to strengthen the color fastness of the color with UV light."

Qi Ye saw that Lao Huang didn't seem to understand what a UV machine was, so he went on to explain, "Have you seen the last white machine in our workshop?" ”

Huang Shi thought for a moment, nodded, and replied, "I've seen it, doesn't it look a bit like the MRI machine in the hospital?" ”

"Hehe, like what. The UV machine is an ultraviolet curing machine, which irradiates the surface of the liquid material by ultraviolet light to solidify the liquid material in a short time. In this way, the color solidifies very quickly when the print comes out, and the gloss of the surface is also very good. ”

"Oh, that's fine, then use it to print." Yellowstone finally slapped the board.

Soon, the goat meat that had actually been stewed was served, and the little sister opened the lid of the big iron pot, poured it into it, and then lit the fire, and after a while, the room was filled with a strong fragrance.

Huang Shi took a few deep sips of the strong aroma of stewed mutton, and said to Qi Ye, "Why don't you drink some wine?" ”

"Don't drink it, I'll be drunk when I get home." Qi Ye shook his head.

"Hehehe, you're afraid of going home and being scolded by your wife!" Huang Shi laughed, when he and a few of them came out, he didn't want to drink and was laughed at by a few of them, but now he didn't expect that feng shui would take turns, Lao Qi also had a child, and he turned around and became a new good man.

Feeling that the fragrance in the room was too strong, Huangshi stood up and walked to the window, about to open the window, but he didn't expect that the window ridge with paper pasted on it was actually made of stainless steel, or embedded in it, and it could only be opened sideways to the bottom of the window.

"Lao Huang, let my little sister turn on the air conditioner."

……

"Lao Huang, this 'lamb stewed on the stove' tastes good!"

Huang Shi took another piece of mutton and put it in his mouth, nodded his head, this mutton is made of juicy soup, the meat is soft and tender, and the taste is mellow, so he said, "It's very good, this soup is thick and has the umami of mutton, and it won't feel bad or delicious at all." You say that it is the first mutton in Fuzhou, but it really deserves its name. ”

Qi Ye drank a drink, Lao Huangshi drank a little wine, and after a while, the two of them ate a pot of stewed mutton into their stomachs.

Lao Qi burped, looked at Huang Shi, whose face was a little reddish, and asked, "Old Huang, what kind of business vouchers are they going to have?" ”

Huang Shi put down the wine bottle and thought about it, it seems that in addition to the casino, it is a game hall, otherwise there is really no way to explain why there are 13 forms of tokens from 1 point to 100 yuan. But it's not good to think about the game hall, not to mention that there are very few types of his tokens, even such a large number can't be explained.

So he replied, "Didn't I go to Canada this time, I have a friend who has a casino over there, and he needs a batch of chips." ”

Huang Shi didn't know that there were casinos in Canada, and before going abroad, his idea was still that casinos were only available in Las Vegas, Macau, Atlantic City, and Monte Carlo, and other casinos might be underground black casinos.

When I arrived in Canada, I realized that I was wrong, and it turned out that there are legal casinos in Canada. Strictly speaking, gambling is illegal in Canada, but casinos that operate legally with strict government approval are legal.

In Canada, casinos are commonly known as casinos. The law stipulates that only casinos that are approved and allowed to operate by the government are legal, and all gambling industries in B.C. are planned and managed by BCLC. A portion of the casino's daily revenue must be donated to various non-profit organizations, such as schools or non-profit associations. At the same time, the government also imposes heavy taxes on casinos.

Bai Xiaohei said that a casino controlled by their big circle gang has a total of more than 800 employees, and pays 5 million in taxes to the city government every year, not counting the BCLC.

However, it is not easy to open a casino, because BC's casino is a license management system, and there are strict restrictions on how many tables and how many slot machines can be in any city. So even if the BCLC approves it, it still has to get the approval of the local municipality. It turned out that they wanted to build a new casino project in South Surrey some time ago, and although the casino company had acquired enough table and slot licenses, it was eventually stranded due to lack of government approval.

Huang Shi followed Bai Xiaohei and Shi Wenbo to the casino a few days later, and at first he thought that the casino would be full of smoke and miasma, but he didn't expect that the air quality was okay, and the environment was relatively comfortable and clean. The casino also combines a hotel, dining, a large stage auditorium, leisure shopping and entertainment, making it a great place for a relaxing holiday.

……

From vouchers to chips, Qi Ye felt very strange, "Aren't the chips all plastic coins, why did they think of using vouchers?" ”

Huang Shi glanced at him, "What's so strange about this, isn't doing business now all about asking for new, different, and change?" ”

Asking for new, different, and change, Qi Ye, who is his own boss, naturally knows how to go, but he feels a little unreliable, so he persuades, "Hey, Lao Huang, I think, if you want to make chips, you still have to use plastic coins, especially the kind of small size, otherwise you won't be able to count well." ”

Lao Huang was stunned for a moment, "Plastic coins?!" ”

Of course, he really didn't think about this trick at the beginning, because "money" is a valuable thing, he won't associate it with plastic at all, but now from white paper to anti-counterfeiting paper to PVC paper, it can also be regarded as plastic, this idea is open, so he can be regarded as a light eye, "Yes, plastic coins can also be used." ”

"Lao Qi, do you know anyone who makes this plastic coin? Help introduce one. Huang Shi picked up the wine glass and gestured.

Although it turned out that his own business was going to be yellow, but Lao Qi was not disappointed, he replied with tea instead of wine, "There is no one who specializes in plastic coins, but I have a friend whose factory can open a mold to do this, and I will help you contact it tomorrow." ”

"Okay, you contact him first, I'll talk about the plastic money when I come back, but we still have to do this voucher." Huang Shi gave Lao Qi a reassuring pill.

didn't expect the business to be done, Qi Ye was naturally very happy, and after saying "hehe" twice, he asked, "Then has the design plan for your coupon come out?" ”

"Nope." Huang Shi shook his head, he really didn't have a score in his heart about what to design the first set of "renminbi" in the 16th century. He searched Baidu at the time and found that many records about the design of coins were all information about virtual ancient coins, which did not help him much.

The printing house is generally only responsible for the printing business, so the layout design is designed by the customer himself, and it is taken to the printing house to be printed, but Qi Ye saw that Lao Huang didn't seem to be prepared, so he said.

"Otherwise, I'll help you introduce a few designers first, let them produce a few sketches, give you a look at them first, and then you make a decision, and then we let them produce detailed drawings, how about it?"

"Okay." Huang Shi nodded, Lao Qi is engaged in printing, and the level of designers he introduced should not be wrong.

But then he asked, "By the way, Lao Qi, how is this design fee calculated?" ”

"It's not expensive, you tell them the requirements, and then they come up with a sketch, and after you approve it, they revise it, you see that the design is OK, and then you can give the designer a design fee. In terms of price, the average small thing is 100 to 200 yuan. But if you want to take into account the rigor, it is estimated that it will be 1500 to 2000 yuan, because it will give you a more hidden vector pattern and anti-counterfeiting features, so it will be more expensive. ”

"Okay, there's no problem, just follow this expensive operation, I'll pay 3,000 yuan."
