Chapter 676 I’m very angry (two in one)

After dusk, the sky changes drastically.

The strong wind blew the grass, and the banana trees were hit by heavy rain.

"Well, senior, I was wrong..."

Wearing a blindfold, Yang Mi felt the rope on her hand being untied, but the person untying the rope was not there. She heard the sound of rain mixed with the ringing of a cell phone, and then heard the sound of the window and door opening.

"Whoa whoa whoa whoa."

Lu Fei stood on the balcony, the cold wind blowing on his heated head. Guo Xing, who was far away in the United States, brought unexpected bad news. Nokia had just delivered the news——

Accusing Logic of infringing on his own patent, he demanded to pay a patent fee of up to 200 million U.S. dollars, and it was a one-time payment!

That’s not true!

The light of lightning shone on Lu Fei's face. His face was gloomy and his brows were furrowed. Although he had collected the patents of Nortel Networks and expanded the Android camp's arsenal, some patents could not be circumvented no matter how hard they were circumvented.

Nokia.

But the problem is that Logic has been cross-licensing patents with Nokia. If it can't be authorized, it still has to pay by the nose.

What is Nokia causing trouble this time?

Guo Xing said: "Mr. Lu, Kallasvuo said that there are 21 patents involving software, antennas, chipsets and video encoding. The logic is not authorized by Nokia and is used privately. There are also 8 items where the charging standard has been changed and the licensing fee is full.

Up……"

"Nokia is so poor, isn't it! Dare you raise prices indiscriminately?"

Lu Fei put his hands on his hips, "It looks like he wants to make a lot of money from patent licensing. Have you found out the reason?"

"It's been checked!"

Guo Xing reported in detail.

Nokia's second quarter financial report is ugly, especially the sales in the Chinese market, which have been beaten by Xiaomi and Shenzhou. The stock price has continued to be sluggish for several months. The third quarter financial report will be out soon, and there is no way to improve it.

Profitable, Nokia's stock is about to fall below $10.

In addition to layoffs, the company is also levying patent licensing fees.

There is nothing wrong with paying a patent licensing fee, but when the contract expires, the price is raised and the price is raised rashly. This is purely a hooligan act!

Moreover, the charging standards are quite unreasonable.

Even Qualcomm would have to call him "hooligan" when he saw it!

"Are you just asking us for money?"

Lu Fei looked at the flowers and plants that were ravaged in the heavy rain.

"Except for Apple, HTC, Xiaomi, Shenzhou, and Tianyu are all our domestic brands." Guo Xing said in a low tone.

"Klasvuo Kallasvuo finally did not lose his mind and attacked everywhere, including Samsung, Sony, LG and other Japanese and Korean companies."

"It's only a matter of time. This time it's our turn, next time it's their turn. Nokia will bite whoever it catches."

"I don't care what happens to the apples, they are here..."

Lu Fei had only one tough answer for Nokia's lion's open mouth, No, qnmd!

"Mr. Lu, Kallasvuo probably also expected that we would refuse, saying that this is Nokia's reasonable patent claim. If not, they would go to court to sue us and double the US$200 million."

Guo Xing was afraid that Lu Fei would make him angry, so he told Kang Peikai's exact words verbatim, but what surprised him was——

Instead of being angry, Lu Fei was very calm: "Nokia is patent blackmail. The more they push their limits, the less we can follow their wishes. No need to talk, let's just go to court."

What is the equivalent of $200 million?

It's equivalent to buying an entire Leica and still having some leftover.

Equivalent to three quarters of Mentor International.

It is equivalent to tearing off a piece of fat from the logical capital chain, especially since Logic has entered a furious mode. After the subprime mortgage crisis, it has swept away global assets. The development speed can no longer be described as high speed, but super high speed. It was originally loose.

Liquidity is also tight, severely restricting the smooth operation of logic.

What's more, the procurement, production, and promotion of logicX3...

More importantly, after acquiring Nortel Networks patents, the entire Android camp became more powerful.

Could it be that Nokia threatened to give money before the acquisition?

After the acquisition, Nokia intensified its threats to raise prices? Then the acquisition of Nortel Networks wasn't for nothing!

How can you be the big brother?

How to lead the Android camp well?

"We will fight the lawsuit with Nokia to the end, no matter how high the cost. We will fight in the United States, Germany, and China. In short, we will fight as long as Nokia wants to fight!"

Lu Fei slapped the railing heavily.

"Yes, Mr. Lu!"

Guo Xing fully supports it. Anyway, this is not the first time that he has gone to court with Nokia, and he has long been used to it.

"Even if you are fined more royalties in the end, it doesn't matter. The logic in the future will be stronger than the logic today. It is completely affordable and can be delayed in time."

Lu Fei said with a straight face: "On the contrary, the longer it is delayed, the better it will be for us, and Nokia will be completely dragged to death in the lawsuit."

"Mr. Lu, would you like to ask about the progress of Motorola's acquisition?" Guo Xing strongly agreed to fight a protracted war with Nokia.

Nokia has lagged behind in smartphones.

Just for these three melons and two dates, wasting the final opportunity for transformation is equivalent to picking up sesame seeds and losing the world.

"I'll be in touch with Carl Icahn."

Lu Fei understood the underlying meaning of his words.

Guo Xing immediately felt more confident. If during the lawsuit, Google could acquire Motorola's mobile division and have Motorola's patented body protection, even if the licensing fee cannot be completely waived, it would still be able to save a lot and stabilize the entire Android camp.

heart of.

It's equivalent to leveling up from level 5 to level 6, so prepare some ultimate moves.

"By the way, you just said that Apple, HTC, and Xiaomi were all sued. How did they react?"

Lu Fei sat on the rocking chair, swaying.

"Xiaomi, Shenzhou, and HTC are certainly looking at our intentions, but there is no news from Apple for the time being."

Guo Xing promised to send someone to investigate immediately.

"Hmph, we thought Nokia was too simple. Originally, the October press conference was only for Apple, but now, since Nokia wants to get involved so much, we don't have to be polite and add Nokia to the press conference.

"

Lu Fei said: "This time we are going to hit someone with two fists!"

Guo Xing took the order and left. He planned to organize HTC, Xiaomi, Shenzhou and other domestic manufacturers to jointly counter-sue Nokia.

"Didi didi..."

The rain gradually became lighter and the rain fell slowly.

Lu Fei called Carl Icahn and didn't ask how long it would take or a specific number. I just wanted Motorola!

After hanging up the phone, he frowned angrily in the cold rainy night, and his mind was filled with thoughts on how to deal with Nokia and Apple.

At this moment, a figure came to him.

"Hiss~"

Lu Fei took a breath and looked down.

Yang Mi is obviously a qualified fire extinguisher. The strong wind and heavy rain cannot extinguish Mr. Lu's fire, but she is working hard to put out the fire.

At the same time, when Xiaomi’s Lei Jun, Shenzhou’s Wu Haijun, HTC’s Wang Xuehong and others were anxiously waiting for the news of Logic, they all got the same answer as Master Lu——

No, go to hell Nokia!

Moreover, it was publicly announced directly on the official website, as well as official accounts such as Weibo, Twitter, and Facebook:

"Nokia's mobile phone business is in decline, and it has transferred patents to third-party patent enforcement companies, allowing these companies to act as its thugs, charging high patent fees and making huge profits. This approach seriously undermines the FRAND principle, that is, fair, reasonable and unfair.

Discriminatory terms.”

"Logic doesn't admit it! Don't accept it! Don't agree to it!"

The younger brothers from HTC, Xiaomi, Shenzhou and others saw how tough the leader was, so they immediately found the backbone and leaned on him.

If we don’t agree on logic, neither will we.

After all, so much money has been paid to buy the road, and now Nokia directly robbed it, and no one would agree to it.

Same goes for apples!

When Jobs heard the logical reply, he was not surprised, but took it for granted, because he and Lu Fei were from the same group.

I didn’t want to pay it in the first place!
