THE GAME

In Hong Kong Hustle, you are the Tai Pan of the largest international trading house in Hong Kong. It is June 30, 1997, and China is due to take over the Colony on July 1. You have just learned that the Chinese intend to confiscate much of the property of the major trading houses. Your objective is to collect 15 bags of gold and jewels, which you have stored around the city, get them to your boat before midnight, and escape.

You disguise yourself as a factory worker and set out from Repulse Bay, using only public transportation, to visit the locations in your notebook. Here are some hints to help you in your quest to remain the wealthiest trader in Southeast Asia:

Hong Kong Hustle is, perhaps, the most challenging game in this book. Completing the assignment, therefore, is especially rewarding. And as you ride the transit system you can be planning how to spend all that gold—if you succeed. Good joss!

THE STORY

Hong Kong Island was a small uninhabited rocky island at the mouth of the Pearl River until the 1830s when, during the days of the tea and opium trade, British sea captains discovered its magnificent protected harbor. Its name derives from two Chinese characters "Heung Kong" meaning fragrant harbor. Some historians suggest that the name might have been inspired by the scent of opium-laden ships in the harbor. Others think the name may have been a reference to the incense and joss stick industries on the south and west coasts of the island. The origin of the name, however, was unimportant to the British who settled on the island and made it an important port for all Far East trade.

Hong Kong, Kowloon, and the New Territories are connected by nearly 100 transit routes

During the Nineteenth Century, Britain concluded three treaties with China relating to Hong Kong: the Treaty of Nanking, signed in 1842 and ratified in 1843 under which Hong Kong Island was ceded in perpetuity; the Convention of Peking in 1860 under which the southern part of the Kowloon Peninsula and Stonecutters Island were ceded in perpetuity; and the Convention of 1898, under which the New Territories and outlying islands (comprising 92% of the total land area of the colony) were leased to Britain for 99 years from July 1, 1898.

Hong Kong and the Kowloon Peninsula are relatively small—35 square miles—while the New Territories and outlying islands (235 of them) comprise a much larger land area—377 square miles. Although the British settled Hong Kong, today they represent just 2% of the population, with most of the remaining 5.3 million residents being Chinese.

It was the fact that the New Territories are subject to a lease that caused the current British Government to enter into negotiations on the future of Hong Kong with the People's Republic of China in the late 1970s. The Chinese Government has consistently taken the view that the whole of Hong Kong is Chinese territory. Its position for many years was that the question of Hong Kong fell into the category of unequal treaties of the past; that it should be settled peacefully when conditions were right; and that pending a settlement, the status quo should be maintained.

Of course, subtle hints were dropped from time to time. All of Hong Kong's water and a substantial amount of its food come from China and the New Territories, and it would be difficult for the residents of the island to exist without them. But, officially, the position was that the matter should be settled through diplomatic channels.

In the late 1970s, as the duration of the New Territories lease decreased, concern about the future of Hong Kong began to be expressed both in the colony itself and among foreign investors. In particular, there was increasing concern about individual land leases granted in the New Territories, all of which were set to expire three days before the expiration of the New Territories lease in 1997. It was clear that the short duration of these leases and the inability of the Hong Kong Government to grant new ones extending beyond 1997 would deter future investment and undermine confidence.

The British Government determined that the situation would become untenable by the mid-1980s if nothing was done. Thus, the Governor of Hong Kong visited Peking in March 1979 and attempted to solve the specific question of leases in the New Territories. He was not successful and not much happened for another two years. Then, finally, in 1982 Chinese officials indicated to a visiting British delegation that they were prepared to enter into negotiations over Hong Kong. Accordingly, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher met with Chairman Deng Xiaoping on September 24, 1982, and jointly they "agreed to enter into talks through diplomatic channels with the common aim of maintaining the stability and prosperity of Hong Kong." During these negotiations, Hong Kong and British delegates explained in detail the legal and commercial systems which prevail in Hong Kong and the importance to these systems of the British role and link. Following extensive discussion, however, it became clear that the continuation of British administration in any form after 1997 would be unacceptable to the Chinese.

The British then agreed to explore the possibility of a bilateral arrangement coupled with a high degree of autonomy under Chinese sovereignty to ensure lasting stability and prosperity for Hong Kong. Discussions intensified after April 1984, resulting in a Joint Declaration issued on September 26, 1984.

The declaration formally states that China will resume the exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories as of July 1, 1997. Hong Kong will be established as a "Special Administrative Region" called Hong Kong, China, which will be under the direct authority of the Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region will be vested with executive, legislative, and independent judicial power, and laws currently in force in Hong Kong will remain basically unchanged.

The government of Hong Kong will consist of officials nominated by the Central People's Government. Local Hong Kong inhabitants, British, and other foreign nationals may be employed as advisors and even hold certain (unspecified) posts in various government departments.

Because free trade has made Hong Kong what it is today, it will retain its status as a free port and a separate customs territory. Nor will it be taxed by China. In the interim, the British will continue to govern Hong Kong with the important provision that land leases can be written through the year 2047.

Reaction to the pact is mixed. Most people in Hong Kong have no other place to go and, even if they did, would have difficulty getting a permanent visa. Hence, they tend to think that Hong Kong should accept the agreement and try to make the most of it. Some British managers and administrators in Hong Kong are quietly making contingency plans, but many intend to stay and give it a try. Hong Kong-born Chinese in Britain and other parts of the world have been quick to condemn Britain's negotiations as a "giveaway" and a "farce." As one said, "Hong Kong people are trying to convince themselves that the agreement will bind China, but it's just not true. China will do what she likes as she always has in the past." Another expressed concern that "there is nothing to prevent Hong Kong from being ruled by the mainland."

Chinese officials, of course, declare that the people of Hong Kong have nothing to fear. On October 3, 1984, Deng Xiaoping told a group of visiting Hong Kong delegates, "The Chinese Government will not change its policy, nor can anyone else change it." He went on, "We have kept our word in external affairs even during periods of chaos. It is the tradition of the Chinese nation to honor its commitments."

All of which sounds good, critics say, except that when July 2, 1997, rolls around, Hong Kong will no longer be considered an "external affair" by China. As for China honoring its commitments, skeptics urge the people of Hong Kong to ask scores of American wheat farmers what happened to their three-year contracts with that country when its harvests improved in 1985. Or to ask the managers of the Ameripex International Philatelic Exposition about China's withdrawal from the exposition on opening day to protest the participation of Taiwan.

Today, Hong Kong is still a thriving, cosmopolitan city of many contrasts—elegant shops and crowded street markets, first-class restaurants and outdoor food stalls, luxury hotels and teeming tenements, bustling factories and peaceful duck farms, noisy discos and ancient temples. After Tokyo, it i the main commercial hub of the Far East, and, as the Tourist Association brochure proclaims, it is "one of life's great adventures."

THE PROGRAM

The Hong Kong Hustle program is built upon the same basic framework as Subway Scavenger. It has one important addition, namely, allowing for variable-length journey segments. In Subway Scavenger, each trip on a train was assumed to last only two or three minutes.

However, it was not feasible to use such a narrow time range for journeys in the Hong Kong simulation, because some trips could be as short as two minutes (tram, MTR), while others could be as long as 20 minutes (ferry, bus over the mountains).

Another less important change was incorporated in Hong Kong Hustle, specifically the option to allow the player to walk from one transit stop to another (assuming, of course, that the stops are within walking distance).

The length of time between transit stops is contained in the data statements for each transit line. Note that the first data statement for each transit line is the same as the data for the trains in the subway program: the name of the transit line, the number of stations, and the identification number of each station. A second data statement contains the frequency of service (which is not currently used in the program) followed by the time (in minutes) between stations on the line.

These data are used in the travel routine (Lines 690–740), specifically, Line 720. Note that if the vehicle is traveling in a "forward" direction (from the beginning of the line to the end), the time (TRT(t, s)) associated with the previous stop is used. However, if the vehicle is traveling "backwards" (from the end of the line to the beginning), then the time associated with the next stop is used.

The following example should make it easier to understand this concept:

Index Bus Stop No. Time to next stop
1 1 5
2 2 4
3 3 8
4 4 7
5 5

If a bus is traveling from Stop 2 to Stop 4, for example, the elapsed time between Stop 2 to Stop 3 (four minutes) is stored as Time 2, and the time between Stop 3 to Stop 4 (eight minutes) is stored as Time 3.

Thus, the total time for the bus to go from Stop 2 to Stop 4 is Time 2 plus Time 3, or 12 minutes. On the other hand, if the bus is going from Stop 4 to Stop 2, it still takes 12 minutes, so we would not want to add Time 4 to Time 3 (15 minutes), but rather, Time 3 to Time 2.

The routine that allows walking from one transit stop to another (Lines 1130–1220) works like the one that lets you walk from a pickup location to two or more transit stops in Subway Scavenger. It, of course, also requires more data than that program requires. These data, STAWLK(s) and STAWK(s, x), are tagged onto the end of the data statement about each station, specifying station name and transit lines that stop at that station.

Hong Kong Hustle is a rather difficult game to complete successfully. There are several ways to make it easier. The easiest way is to lower the number of bags of gold and jewels to be collected.

This variable, BG, is currently set equal to 15 in Line 190. Try setting BG equal to 11 or 12, and see how you make out. Of course, if you become very proficient at the game, you can raise BG to 17 or 18 for a real challenge.

Another way to make the game easier is to extend the time deadline past midnight, say to 4:00 A.M. or 5:00 A.M. For each hour you want to extend it, add 60 to the constant 899 in Line 4630:

4630 IF MIN > 899 THEN 4650

Unfortunately, times after 12 midnight will not be displayed correctly, but if you feel ambitious, you can modify the routine to print the time (Lines 4680–4720) to allow for times later than 12 midnight.

A third way to make the game easier is to deal with packages in only Hong Kong Island (locations 1 to 9) or only Kowloon and the New Territories (locations 10–23). This is not an easy modification to make (you must both decrease the number of bags to be collected and change the limits of the FOR…NEXT loop in Line 4910 which shuffles the list of locations). In fact, it is probably easier to keep practicing with the current game than to try to modify it in this way, but the option is there for those who are especially ambitious and/or frustrated.
