Cross the collapsing iron and rebuild Yaliluo

As soon as the statement against the three major groups came out, the entire underground world changed, and the situation suddenly became complicated.

But what no one expected was that in the past two days, the biggest noise was not the Longlun Gang gathering underground masters from various gangs, but the civil strife of the underground gangs supported by the three major groups.

Just one day passed, and the three gangs of Menggui Zhong, Yi Nian Gang and Dajiangmen became six.

The next day, there were eight in the morning and only five in the evening.

On the night of the second day, the five gangs unified into one, calling themselves the Gas Society.

After deciding on the name of the Gas Society, Bach, the newly appointed president of the Gas Society, took his bandaged boys to the Longlun Gang's tavern overnight and asked to see Erica.

What the two parties talked about is unknown to outsiders, but the next morning, Erica personally sent Bach out of the Longlun gang's tavern, with satisfied smiles on both sides' faces.

Two days flew by and it was the weekend.

In City No. 7 on weekends, there are always more people going out to spend money than usual.

But today, very few people are consuming.

We all live in the same city, and we all know more or less about the situation that seems calm these two days, but is actually undercurrent.

Even if I don’t know how far this armed fight will develop, I will instinctively stay at home to avoid getting involved.

According to Erica's plan, the exits of the headquarters building of the three major groups are now blocked by a dense crowd.

People working inside can't get out, and the security forces outside can't get in.

The long street near the headquarters building of the three major groups, no matter how smooth it usually is, is now blocked by gangs in the underground world.

Some migrant workers who had worked overtime in the building all night felt mixed emotions when they saw the crowds of people downstairs.

In the lounge of the scientific research center of the Yudian Tower, several people who had just worked all night overtime were drinking steaming coffee and standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with dark circles under their eyes, talking.

"Hey, why do you think they came to the headquarters building to protest?"

“Normally speaking, if the patent office is going to revise patent term development, shouldn’t they go there?”

"Didn't they go there last time? It still didn't work, so they came to the headquarters building."

"Well, I heard from a former classmate that he worked overtime at the Shencai Tower and his exit was blocked by protesters."

"The Shencai Group's tower is also blocked?"

"Yes, go to your personal terminal and take a look. The buildings of the three major groups are all blocked by protesting crowds."

"Hey! Such a big fight? It seems that this reform of the patent law will not be implemented."

The two people in the middle were discussing non-stop. They had worked overtime all night. Their brains were numb at the moment, and they couldn't leave the company. They might as well chat casually, which would keep them refreshed, and they could go back to work overtime later. .

The person standing on the far left side of the floor-to-ceiling window was just listening to their discussion, but now he couldn't help but refute.

"it's useless."

"This reform of the patent law is imperative. Just those old people can't stop the three major groups."

"Oh? Are you so sure?"

"That's right, I heard from people in the design department that the patent period for the classic mechanical prostheses they designed before is about to expire. However, after more than ten years, those classic mechanical prostheses have become durable and durable, leading to iterations. If the new product cannot be sold, a lot of money will be lost.”

"Ah? What does this have to do with the three major groups' push to reform the patent law?"

Seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, the scientific researcher on the far left couldn't help but straighten his back and said proudly with a smile.

"Of course it matters!"

"After the patent period for classic mechanical prosthetics expires, won't those small gang workshops also be able to produce them?"

"The group's original plan was to stop producing those classic mechanical prostheses, and then do some tricks on the drive, so that stubborn and restless old users can switch to the latest version of mechanical prostheses."

“After the small workshops of those gangs can also produce classic mechanical prostheses, how can the old die-hards switch to the latest version of mechanical prostheses?

“Wouldn’t the group’s plan to implement a new version of mechanical prostheses lead to bankruptcy?”

"This is absolutely impossible."

"If the group's plan goes bankrupt, wouldn't the new things developed by our R&D department be useless?"

"When it becomes useless, there will be layoffs. Let me ask you, who of you wants to be fired from the group?"

When he asked this, the scientific researchers who were standing in a row in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows to watch the show suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure on their shoulders, and they could only change their words and agree.

"Yes, you are right. The three major groups should promote the reform of the patent law."

"I think a few more decades is too short. If you want to change it, let's change it to a hundred years!"

"Yes, I support it too!"

"Yes, we are promoting the latest version of mechanical prosthetics for the benefit of the people. After all, the new version of mechanical prostheses is much better than the old version in terms of comfort and adaptability to the human body. The only drawback is that it’s expensive.”

"But this is an object that can be used for more than ten years to replace limbs. You have to buy expensive ones. The expensive ones are of good quality and make people feel at ease."

"Yes, being expensive is not the shortcoming of the mechanical prostheses we iterated, but their shortcomings."

The scientific researchers who just now said that this reform of the patent law cannot be implemented are now blushing.

"Are you kidding? I don't agree!"

The surrounding scientific researchers all looked at him.

Are you mentally ill?

You don’t agree with things that are good for us?

Who would have expected that his next words would change everyone's impression of him.

"Expensive? Why is it so expensive? It's been this price for so many years. Don't talk nonsense with your eyes open. It's very difficult to iterate mechanical prosthetics... Where is it so expensive?"

"We can't just look for the reasons within ourselves, but also look for them."

"After all, City No. 7 has developed for so many years, but they still look poor. If their wages have not increased after so many years, they must not be working seriously!"

"The reason why they are poor is because they don't work hard enough!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone around them nodded with great satisfaction.

You have a point.

Look at us, we have worked overtime all night, now we take a break and have breakfast, and we plan to go back and continue working overtime. How hard we work!

It was definitely not because the exit was blocked by protestors, making it impossible to go back.

And you actually have time to protest, which is so leisurely.

Not to mention, I went back to work overtime, trying to die suddenly on the job so that my boss could get a better car.
