Cross the collapsing iron and rebuild Yaliluo

"Yes."

Erica nodded, her expression indignant.

"The patent laws in City No. 7 are very detailed, much more detailed than those in several other cities."

"But enforcement has been unfair."

"Other cities have government departments or public institutions, unified organizations based on private taxation."

"So although the patent laws of several other cities are not as detailed as those of City No. 7, their enforcement is much better than those of City No. 7."

"The construction and maintenance of public facilities in City No. 7 are maintained by the Peacekeeping Committee jointly established by various companies. Patent law is also within the scope of the Peacekeeping Committee's work."

"For small companies and small merchants, the Peacekeepers will be particularly strict about patents. If there is even the slightest infringement, the fine will be ruined and it will be impossible for generations to recover."

"But when the big companies behind the Peacekeeping Conference infringe the rights, they remain silent and pretend they don't see it."

"This kind of thing has happened many times, and everyone turned a blind eye."

"After all, as long as you don't break the law, you won't be caught."

“This time the reform of the exclusive patent time of the patent law was held to extend the patentee’s monopoly time.”

"Although ordinary commercial patents in the past had special circumstances, they generally only lasted for about ten or twenty years, while drug patents generally lasted for less than ten years, and cultural and image copyright patents all lasted for about fifty years. .”

"Now, they want to set the general commercial patent period at 20 years, drug patents not be shared, and cultural copyright patents at 100 years."

"Hmph! It took them a hundred years to figure out how to release the patent after everyone was cremated. It's too much."

She rambled on for a long time before she remembered that Xia Zhihui was listening nearby.

Xia Zhihui didn't care that she kept talking. Instead, he went into the room and poured her a glass of water.

"Does your Longlun Gang have many patents?"

Erica shook her head.

"Not much. Although our industry is not small, we still focus on fighting, and production is not too strict."

Xia Zhihui took a disposable paper cup and poured himself a cup.

After walking to the balcony, he asked casually.

"How big is your industry?"

"Then what kind of industry are you in?"

After asking, he raised his head to drink water.

Erica next to her answered with her hands covering the water glass.

"The nutritional supplement industry in City No. 7 is all owned by our Longlun Gang."

puff--

The water Xia Zhihui just drank spurted out.

No wonder Old Beard said before that any new measures the peacekeeping committee wants to promote outside the fifth ring road, or even outside the fourth ring road, will not be effectively promoted.

The Longlun Gang actually monopolized the production of nutritional supplements in City No. 7?

The nutrient supply system ensures that every resident of City No. 7 has adequate nutrition every day.

Even the No. 3 garbage treatment plant outside City No. 7 can steadily receive boxes of nutrients.

And it was also because of the nutrient rationing system that Carl was able to grow up stably after his grandfather passed away.

This is the largest and most basic welfare system in the cyber city No. 7!

And the Longlun Gang, who was approached by several of them last time, was actually the implementer of this system?

It's a bit incredible.

It's like bullying a random guy in the lower class who looks easy to bully, but turns out he is the president of the children's commune.

Xia Zhihui coughed, concealed his embarrassment, and continued to ask.

"Then you don't have many patents, so why do you want to participate in this battle?"

"Because our Longlun Gang needs the support of other people at the bottom, just like we distribute nutrients."

"Why don't those companies compete with you for the nutritional supplement business? The production of nutritional supplements is not difficult, right?"

"It's not high, but they can't do what we can do. The most basic nutritional supplements from the Longlun Gang have been distributed for free for a long time, while the mid-to-high-end nutritional supplements are charged. Use the profits from the mid-to-high-end nutritional supplements to subsidize the basics Regarding nutritional supplements and the entire nutritional supplement industry, our Longlun Gang can’t make much money.”

"Although the high-end nutritional supplements of those big companies are high-end, compared to the nutritional supplements that everyone has been drinking since childhood, our nutritional supplements are ultimately more popular."

Having said this, Erica was a little proud.

"After all, they don't have the guts to join us in distributing basic nutritional supplements for free to seize the market."

Xia Zhihui nodded.

In this case, those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. The company puts on shoes for profit, so naturally it cannot compare with Longlun Bang.

"So back to my original question, you don't have many patents, so why are you participating in this battle?"

"It's not just about winning people's hearts, right?"

"No, it's that simple."

"alright."

After a moment of silence, Xia Zhihui asked again.

"I just saw the scarface from your gang down there, the one whose arms and calves have been replaced with mechanical prostheses. He was sitting on a big black box."

"Oh, Brother Baru, he is here today to control the scale of the battlefield."

"Controlling the scale of the battlefield?"

"Yeah, although gangs have to fight with various companies from time to time, they always control the scale of the fight and try not to destroy buildings on a large scale. It doesn't matter between people. They can fight to the death and see who can. Stand till the end.”

"But the damage to the building is generally limited to breaking the glass and smashing the wall with other people's heads. If the load-bearing wall is penetrated, it will not be good for the people on the first floor."

"And the fight is for better production. If the production areas are broken, what else can be produced."

"As for the black box under his butt..."

"It is equipped with an automatic multi-barreled rotary machine gun with a high rate of fire and high power. It can directly level the entire building and help with demolition."

"The black box is usually filled with bullets, but it only takes a minute to fire."

Xia Zhihui nodded with respect.

Got it, the City No. 7 version of Gatlin.

Namo Gatling Bodhisattva, six pure depleted uranium bullets.

One breath lasts 3,600 revolutions, saving the world with great mercy!

The super high rate of fire and continuous power are the natural enemies of his seven-layered circle. You need to pay attention.

"Is it because I was afraid that the other party would not follow the rules, so I brought it with me?"

"Yeah, it's best if you don't use it. If you want to use it, you can't do it without it, right?"

"really."

After another moment of silence, Erica took the initiative and spoke.

"Today's battle is almost over."

"You coming from other worlds may think that there are very few such battles, but in City No. 7, our Longlun Gang often brings different people and companies to fight."

"Please don't think that we like violence, just because the company is too pushy. If today's patent law reform is successfully implemented, I don't know how many small companies and merchants will go bankrupt, and there will be a group of people outside the Fifth Ring Road who can only drink basic nutritional supplements. people."

"I hope you can understand. I'm really sorry about what happened that day."

Xia Zhihui waved his hand.

"The events of that day are over."

"You just want a situation where both parties can live in peace without being pressed. Why do you think I am on the side of the company?"

He smiled, as if the old fox had seen the rabbit.

“I have a message from my hometown that I can give you.”

“If you seek peace through struggle, you will survive in peace; if you seek peace through compromise, you will perish in peace.”
