740 The Kindness of Capital (4k)(1/2)

On the day Lu Fei returned to China, Logic immediately sued Samsung.

In the United States, where Samsung's mobile phones and tablets are most important, the Chinese market took the lead and filed a lawsuit.

In an instant, one stone stirred up thousands of waves.

Originally, this year, except for Apple's iPhone 4S, Nokia's Megoo, and the second-generation Barong baseband chip, the entire mobile phone industry was in stagnant water. Logic's new phone launch conference could be said to be the most anticipated event in the second half of the year.

But I never imagined that there would be a big drama——

The patent war between Logic and Samsung 0 is online again.

There were many reports in the media, but the popularity was not high. The real outbreak will have to wait until the court officially accepts the case and opens a trial.

Lu Fei handed over the lawsuits in China to Sun Hongjun, and the lawsuits in the United States and later Europe were handed over to Guo Xing.

Everything went according to plan and in an orderly manner.

August 29, Yanjing.

Lu Fei put down the company's affairs and sat in the mansion of Dongshan Villa, watching the beauty change clothes one by one in front of him.

"How about this one?"

Gao Yuanyuan is wearing a white suit, looking smart and capable.

"Obviously ordinary clothes, why do they look so good on you?" Lu Fei raised the corner of his mouth.

"You! Then take this one."

Gao Yuanyuan's smiling eyebrows curved into crescent moons.

"Send Huahua to eldest brother's house later."

Lu Fei stood up and stretched out his arms.

"Well, I've already made an agreement with my sister-in-law."

Gao Yuanyuan hooked his arm and said, "When we get Bill Gates and Buffett to the hotel, we will go to her place for lunch, and then go to the charity dinner together in the evening. I have arranged everything. There are special rooms for Ruoruo and Huahua."

, and there are dedicated personnel to take care of it.”

Lu Fei nodded, "Then let's set off!"

After sending Lu Hua to the Rose Garden Villa, the two of them appeared at the Capital International Airport on time. A plane picked up the boarding stairs and saw Bill Gates and Buffett walking down.

"Hey! Bill! Warren!"

Lu Fei raised his hand, full of enthusiasm.

"land!"

Bill Gates and Buffett shook hands with him one by one, and noticed the noble and dignified woman beside him out of the corner of his eye.

"She is my wife."

Lu Fei introduced Gao Yuanyuan to the two of them.

After exchanging pleasantries, we got in the car heading to our hotel.

"Lu, I heard that you are going to take action against Samsung, right?"

Bill Gates and Buffett look at each other.

"We have already taken action, and now we just have to wait for the court to formally accept it. Although we will not be as exaggerated as Nokia suing us all over the world for infringement, in addition to China and the United States, Britain, France, Germany and Italy, these important markets for Samsung will logically file lawsuits."

Lu Fei's face was full of seriousness.

"Doing this will distract the power and energy." Bill Gates said in surprise: "Why don't you wait until we finish dealing with Nokia? Maybe Microsoft is also willing to join forces with Logic to deal with Samsung?"

"To deal with Samsung, we are also dealing with Nokia."

Lu Fei simply explained that Logic launched not just a legal war against Samsung, but an all-out war on land, sea and air.

Samsung and Logic each have their own advantages, but in terms of smartphone technology and branding, Samsung is far behind. If it wants to compete with Logic in the smartphone market, the only card it can play is price war.

How did Qimonda die?

Otherwise, it will die in the price war between Yangtze Memory, Micron and Samsung.

In the current overseas market, Nokia has to endure logic, Apple's dimensionality reduction blow, and Samsung and HTC's price war.

The domestic market has to suffer from Xiaomi, Shenzhou, Tianyu and other "cost-effective" and "Internet mobile phone" combination packages.

In the world, we must resist the challenge of logic to Nokia, the leader of the old era. Nokia is like Xiang Yu who has been ambushed from all sides. It is surrounded on all sides. How can logic lose?

"If Logic's market share can surpass Nokia's this year and reach the top spot, we will be sure to kill Kallasvuo."

Bill Gates showed a sly smile.

“Who are you going to nominate to replace Kallasvuo?”

Lu Fei narrowed his eyes.

"Stephen Elop, the president of our business unit, has led the development of many office projects. Nokia will be satisfied with his resume and ability." Bill Gates smiled.

"Is he ready to replace Kallasvuo this year? We plan to let Shenzhou go overseas to seize Nokia's market." Lu Fei is full of confidence. Shenzhou, equipped with the second-generation Barong baseband chip, will definitely give Nokia and Samsung

Creating trouble.

"Lu, you have to be gentle."

Bill Gates couldn't help but joke, at least leave something to Nokia. Otherwise, Microsoft would be a big injustice if it spent so much effort and ended up acquiring the mobile phone department that was about to be finished.

"Bill, you should know better."

Lu Fei reminded that if the mobile phone business is not destroyed and Nokia loses hope, how can it be acquired by Microsoft?

"What you said makes sense."

Bill Gates smiled and said, "Leave these worries to Steve. Fortunately, I have retired."

"Yeah, it's a good thing you're retired."

The two made eye contact and smiled at each other.

Once Microsoft acquires Nokia, it will inevitably compete with Logic and Android in order to promote Microsoft's operating system and revitalize its mobile phone business. If Bill Gates is still at Microsoft, it is likely to affect the personal relationship and even interests between the two.

After all, the three of them were tied too deeply.

"Leave Microsoft matters to Ballmer, let's talk about charity." Lu Fei glanced at Buffett and Gao Yuanyuan.

From now on, the two of them could not find a topic to talk about and remained silent.

As soon as she heard "charity", Gao Yuanyuan immediately became energetic. Her foreign language proficiency was still lacking, so she had to rely on Lu Fei to be her translator.

Looks like I still have to learn!

Have a lot of communication and learning with Mr. Lu in bed!

After a while, after sending Bill Gates and Buffett to the hotel, Lu Fei got back in the car and saw Gao Yuanyuan smiling.

"So happy?"

"Of course, they didn't mean to personally give it to the 400 American billionaires on the Forbes list. Almost 40 people agreed to sign the commitment letter. Adding us here, this is a great start!"

"This charity commitment has no legal effect, it is just a 'moral commitment'." Lu Fei raised his head and said with a smile.

"That's enough. With you three world rich people taking the lead, more and more people will join in." Gao Yuanyuan said happily.

"Don't think too highly of us."

Lu Fei showed a playful smile.

"What do you mean?" Gao Yuanyuan asked curiously.

"You don't really think they are really doing charity, do you?"

"Is not it?"

"There is a saying that the charity of capitalists is called hypocrisy. It may be out of kindness, but it must have other motives."

Lu Fei leaned his head over and whispered.

The United States suspended the inheritance tax for one year starting from January 1, 2010, but this provision is likely to be invalidated next year.

Once the estate tax is re-imposed in 2011, the new tax rate will jump to 55%, and the exemption will be reduced from US$3.5 million per person to only US$1 million per person.

If a wealthy person donates a large amount of his inheritance to social welfare, the donated assets can be exempted from inheritance tax.

"Ah, so that's it!"

Gao Yuanyuan suddenly realized, "Then are you..."

"Shh."

Lu Fei sat down and made a silent gesture.

Because they really have a car!

At this moment, the car radio reported the news of the "Babylu" charity dinner. This dinner was probably the most high-profile meal in China in 2010.

To be precise, as early as half a month after it was made public, it has already exploded on the Internet. The media and the public have paid unprecedented attention to charity.

Portals, Weibo, forums and other platforms have opened special topics.
