Game Guys, Inc

True/False

Game Guys, Inc. needed a special silicon substrate. The company executives knew that a new start-up in India, Silicon Sisters, Inc., was the best in the world at efficiently mass-producing the product. The Indian company needed MSG (metallurgical grade silicon) in order to make the substrate, which it knew it could get from a Chinese firm. The Chinese firm (mostly owned by the Chinese government) agreed to supply the silicon to Silicon Sisters if it could get a certain quantity of gaming hardware from Game Guys. This beneficial exchange is described as countertrading.
