Vol 3 Chapter 2846: Commercial patents, joint enforcement
【Lord of Arcane】【】
"By the way, Green Tower used to imitate our first-generation communication magic weapon. Now the third-generation communication magic weapon is so profitable, don't let them take advantage of it again!"
What Xia Duo mentioned was a past incident. This incident caused the Tower of Time to lose a lot of revenue at the time. Not only did it affect sales, but also because of the imitation of the Green Tower, the price of the first-generation communication magic weapon continued to rise. Pull low.
If the selling price is low, the profit will be low. In addition, sales volume will be affected, and it will be difficult to maintain low income.
The final result of this matter was that the Austrian-French Federation passed a brand new patent law. The previous patent law of the Austrian-French Federation did not protect commercial exploitation.
For example, if the Tower of Time develops a new spell and registers a patent, it will indeed obtain mandatory patent income from other mage tower organizations in Netheril, but accordingly other mage towers will also have the right to use the new spell in the Tower of Time. Develop commercial utilization on the basis of spells.
If the other party is better at business, maybe Tower of Time has developed a new spell, and the ultimate benefit will be worse than others!
In this way, without patent protection, who would be willing to register a patent? In the long run, the development of new techniques and new theories will inevitably be affected.
The new patent law only adds a commercial patent, which makes the number of patent registrations of the Austrian-French Federation in the past one or two years far more than in the decades before the implementation of the new patent law!
But even after the new patent law is implemented, it is not that no one is imitating the Tower of Time's second-generation communication instrument, but the quality is not as good as the original product, and the price is not as low as the original product. There are not many imitation products on the market.
Most of them are just imitations of the appearance of the Tower of Time communication instrument, but the inside is still the original thing. If it's just the appearance, Xia Duo doesn't care. This will also help promote genuine products and form a trend!
However, in the future, appearance patents will also have to keep up.
The third generation communication magic weapon is more profitable and will of course attract more people to imitate it. However, the products of this generation are completely different from the previous two generations. In essence, it is just a mystery lock node. The real core is actually the communication mystery lock.
So Xia Duo is not worried about imitators encroaching on his own market, but he is worried that imitators are completely inappropriate and will make a bunch of fake and shoddy products to defraud money and ruin the reputation of Tower of Time products. This is very hateful!
Especially those with criminal records like Green Tower need to be vigilant.
…
Cecily also knew about the past of the Green Tower preventing the Tower of Time's communication weapon. At this moment, hearing Sha Duo's reminder, she also subconsciously became alert.
However, the Tower of Time has risen too fast in recent years, and it is far from extending its tentacles to the territory of the Green Tower Alliance. Cecily thought for a moment and replied to Shado:
"This kind of thing is not only related to the interests of our Tower of Time, but also has a major impact on the interests of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. It is difficult for us to directly intervene in the Green Tower Alliance, but it may not be the case for the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. I will go and discuss with Mingshui Chamber of Commerce later. Contact the Water Merchants Association, we still have to rely on them for this matter.”
"Yes, but fighting against counterfeit and shoddy products also requires costs. We can't let others work for us for free. As long as they provide specific action arrangements, all expenses will be paid by our Tower of Time, and it is not limited to the Green Tower Alliance. , wherever there is infringement on Tower of Time products within the scope of Netheril, we need to attack them together."

No one can criticize you for safeguarding your own reasonable and legitimate interests. Moreover, the impression given by Tower of Past Time may be too gentle and too comfortable, so it will inevitably be looked down upon. It is not a bad thing to have a sense of presence from time to time.
If he wasn't too worried, Shado could even consider letting the floating city continuously patrol over Netheril.
"By the way, although we asked the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to do this, we have to send people to participate. Otherwise, we won't be able to tell where the money from the Tower of Time will be used. For the time being, we will send two people. Come on, participate as a recorder of the action.”
"Okay, then I'll go negotiate with the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce."
"Well, go ahead and negotiate as soon as possible."
...After Cecily left, Chateau asked the four secretaries to leave. He sat behind his desk and thought for a moment, then sent a message to Jenna, mentioning the plan to combat counterfeiting. Jenna did not refuse.
In fact, Shado's idea didn't just come up suddenly today, but had been around for some time. His follower Ava has been traveling around Netheril for nearly a year, recording the local customs and customs for him.
Among them, it is inevitable to mention the situation of Tower of Time products in various places, such as word-of-mouth, sales, usage experience, etc.
Even though Xia Duo now has two members in a family, others still have to imitate it, and no one can resist money. According to Ava's visit, the imitation of the Tower of Time in various places is mainly focused on the appearance.
Even if they are not similar products at all, we still have to find a way to make them more attractive and buyers will be more willing to buy Tower of Time style products.
Yes, the original words of Ava's regular report mentioned "style", and the biggest feature of the Tower of Time style is simplicity and that any product will fully consider ergonomics.
Even the most picky user would find it difficult to say anything bad about Tower of Time products in terms of the sense of use.
It can be said that the current Tower of Time products are already leading the trend in Netheril magic item design and even other product design fields.
Again, Xia Duo doesn't mind just imitating the appearance. At least now he has no grudges about this situation at all.
Of course, based on this, he has no response from time to time. Improving the product line is his response, and not only magic items, but also other product areas are gradually getting involved, but this takes time.
…
Let’s not talk about imitation of appearance for now, but there are still people who directly imitate the mass production design of Tower of Time, and even commit fraud in the name of Tower of Time products (counterfeiting is fraud), which is really intolerable.
The mass production design of the Tower of Time has been patented, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com, and has been encrypted during the actual production process. It cannot be said that it is an accident, and it is definitely malicious.
Not to mention counterfeiting, it will only ruin the reputation of the Tower of Time.
In addition to these, there is also the problem of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. It is impossible for such a large chamber of commerce to be completely unselfish from top to bottom. Even the president of the Grand Arcanist cannot resist the greed of the people below.
During his travels, Ava discovered many times that some stores in the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce would increase prices and tie-in sales when selling Tower of Time products.
Normally, the former is not a problem, because the price given by the Tower of Time to the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce is only the settlement price, and the specific selling price is still decided by the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce.

If you think you can sell at a higher price, then sell at a higher price, or you can choose small profits but quick turnover. The specific choice depends on the actual local market conditions and the actual local decision-makers of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce.
This can maximize benefits.
But too much of a price increase won't work. Ava found that the prices of Tower of Time products in many stores were significantly higher than the price limit agreed upon by the Tower of Time and Mingshui Chamber of Commerce.
If maximizing profits is barely understandable, then there is no lower limit for bundling non-Tower of Time products.
This will inevitably affect the normal sales of Tower of Time products. In the past, Xia Duo did not name these things considering his relationship with Jenna, but he believed that this was definitely not what Jenna meant.
Therefore, he hopes that through this "joint law enforcement", the evil atmosphere in the market can be swept away, whether it is external or internal.
