Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

After Netac sued, of course, the happiest companies were Sony and Samsung.

Sitting on the mountain to watch the tigers fight, and letting Xiaguo's enterprises have a life-and-death relationship with each other, is the best thing for Western, Oriental, and South Korean companies.

After the reform and opening up, especially after Xia Guo's accession to the WTO, Xia Guo's companies fought with each other from time to time.

And behind most of these incidents, there are shadows of Western technology companies.

The most typical case is the LCD TV.

The technology of LCD TV has always been in the hands of South Korea, and its technical level is far ahead.

The approach taken by South Korean companies Samsung and LG is to sell outdated production lines to different Xiaguo companies.

Let these Xiaguo companies produce LCD TVs with different brands but almost the same quality.

Afterwards, Xia Guo's companies competed fiercely with each other and seized the domestic cheap market. In the end, both parties suffered, which was quite tragic.

South Korean companies, on the other hand, have a firm grasp of high-end brands and high-end technology, and will always gain the greatest benefit.

When Xiaguo A company started technical research, it was about to reach a certain height.

The LCD TV company in South Korea has put higher-level technical products on the market, continued to occupy the high-end market, and transferred the technology production line that Xia Guo A Technology Company had just conquered to Xia Guo’s B and C companies, and continued to let Xia Guo’s technology production line. Several ABC companies are fighting each other, and at the same time, the technology that company A has spent a lot of money to conquer has been wiped out.

Since then, the wiser Xia Guo company is reluctant to invest in research and development of new technologies, but is waiting to take refuge in Western or Oriental or South Korean companies, and is proud of strangling domestic competitors.

Chen Xiao comes from the future, and of course he knows that those smiling Toyo companies are not as kind as they appear on the surface.

After Chen Xiao got the news that Netac told Lingyue, he immediately thought of Sony behind Netac.

He did not panic, but continued to work in the carbon crystal storage laboratory, waiting for more detailed information to be collected before making judgments and decisions.

Chen Xiao also asked Wang Xiang's team to continue negotiating with Motorola.

After all, this is the future of the company.

Where does Wang Xiang have the determination of Chen Xiao?

No matter how strong the psychological quality is, people will also be affected in some ways.

Motorola's team has just submitted an intention to cooperate and is willing to purchase a batch of lithium batteries for use in new mobile phones.

As for what kind of procurement method, the other party has not said.

Taking advantage of this gap, Wang Xiang quickly returned to the company.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Linghua couldn't sit still for a long time, he went to Changtian Technology Chen Xiao's office early to wait for Chen Xiao.

At noon, Chen Xiao also returned to the company.

He smiled and looked at the nervous Wang Xiang and Zhou Linghua, and said, "Everyone should know the news, right?"

Zhou Linghua said speechlessly: "It has been reported by various media, and we have also received a subpoena from the court, asking us to submit relevant information and materials."

The subpoena was placed on Chen Xiao's desk, and under the subpoena was a thick stack of materials.

This is some basic information obtained after the legal department of Changtian Technology contacted local lawyers and Shenzhen courts.

These materials clearly show Netac's intentions.

Zhou Linghua said, "I have never seen such a brazen person!"

"Netac actually made such an unreasonable request! What a shame!"

Chen Xiao looked at the information and understood why Zhou Linghua jumped up in excitement and wanted to scold his mother.

Netac made three demands.

The first requirement is to explain clearly the source of Lingyue MP3 flash memory.

The second requirement is to immediately stop infringing on Netac's rights, that is, immediately stop using flash memory to produce and sell Lingyue MP3.

There is one last request that is even more outrageous.

Netac demanded that Lingyue pay Netac 3 million compensation for patent infringement, and compensate Netac Lingyue for all sales profits of MP3.

Zhou Linghua said very excitedly: "Can we agree to these requirements? We are the same ass! If we really agreed to these requirements, isn't our nearly a year of work in vain?"

How could Zhou Linghua not get angry?

Seeing that you are about to make a lot of money, a robber suddenly appears and asks you to hand over all the money you make.

Is it you, can you agree?

Everyone looked at Chen Xiao and waited for Chen Xiao to come up with an idea.

Chen Xiao is not a lawyer, so he still has to listen to his lawyer's opinion on such a case.

In fact, Wang Xiang felt some guilt at this time. He felt that if he didn't push Netac too hastily, Netac would not have done such extreme behavior.

Chen Xiao saw Wang Xiang's psychology, he said with a smile: "Commercial struggles are the same as technological struggles. If there is a homogeneous product, it is almost a life-and-death situation."

"Even if we didn't launch a replacement event this time, Netac would not let us go."

"If we lose the war against Netac, Lingyue will either disappear or sell at a lower price. The same is true for Netac."

After consulting with a lawyer, everyone will know the troubles of the matter.

The most troublesome place is that Netac's flash memory patent has been applied not only in China, but also in western countries such as the United States.

The crux of the problem is that the flash memory of the Lingyue MP3 was purchased from Toshiba.

It depends on whether there is a relevant agreement between Toshiba and Netac.

If the two companies have a direct agreement, requiring Toshiba not to use flash memory as a raw material for secondary products, then the lawsuit will be unfavorable to Lingyue.

The lawyer said that Netac's request was indeed excessive. In the end, even if Lingyue lost the lawsuit, it would not compensate the amount Netac said.

But if there is no relevant agreement between Toshiba and Netac, then the lawsuit will benefit Lingyue.

After the lawyer finished his statement, everyone looked at Chen Xiao.

Zhou Linghua said very depressed: "When I purchased this batch of flash memory overseas, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com did not think of this problem."

Zhou Linghua was originally an individual businessman who grew up in this era, and their legal awareness of patents was relatively weak.

The only thing that matters is how to make money.

In fact, in this reckless era, there are very few people who really investigate and litigate patents.

After all, a lawsuit like this is too difficult to fight.

Wang Xiang quickly added: "Then let's contact Toshiba quickly and ask whether the other party has such an agreement?"

Chen Xiao didn't answer the question immediately, but said, "Have you ever thought that we can take the third way?"

In fact, Chen Xiao had already thought about such a problem when he asked Toshiba to buy flash memory.

And he already had a plan in his mind.

Wang Xiang couldn't wait to ask: "What is the third way?"
