If repeating is allowed (which I can suppose from the context),

then the answer is 9*10*10*10*10*10*10*9 = 81,000,000.

Of 8 multipliers, two multipliers of 9 correspond to the first and the last positions, where restrictions are imposed;
six multipliers of 10 correspond to six other positions with no restrictions.
