Here are all of the answers from the good folks at FASA regarding Fuchi.
Hope this helps.

Fuchi Industries
Q1: Can say 4 Statics go to Fuchi and then Hatchetman, Scorpio and Skidz go
on a shadowrun on the same turn. The card says that "one or more deckers may
visit Fuchi instead of going on a shadowrun"
A1: The phrasing on the card is bad. A visit to Fuchi takes the place of a
shadowrun. The card makes it sound as though Deckers are the only ones who
can miss the shadowrun, but the intent is that a visit to Fuchi is done
instead of a shadowrun.

Q2: Can you send more than one group of deckers to Fuchi in the same turn,
example send 4 Statics, them 4 Ice Queens in another group, 4 The Moles in a
final group. I think this should be possible because more than 1 runner can
visit other locations like The Iron Lung, Hermetic Library etc….
A2: Because Fuchi takes the place of a shadowrun, you can only go once per
turn.

Q3: When do runners visit Fuchi Industries (during their legwork phase or
shadowrun phase)?
A3: During the shadowrun phase. BUT! this is not actually a shadowrun so
cards that effect shadowruns cannot be played as normal.

Q4: The way Fuchi Industries reads it sounds like 4 Statics can go to Fuchi
together and add all of their Decking together, thus automatically getting
the biggest prize. Is this correct?
A4: Yes. At least until Tempest or something else "waks" those Statics.

These and all of your other questions/answers are available in the SRTCG
Q&A: SRCard's Official Unofficial SRTCG FAQ. Available at my web site,
address in my sig file. (Yes, I am too lazy to type it up right now. :) )
