Hanwang Technology once developed fixed-line products in 2004, launched models such as "e-phone" and "i-phone", and applied to register the "i-phone" trademark. Moreover, the registered trademark categories include mobile phones.
This is the origin of the Apple mobile phone logo it holds.
This year, Apple paid attention to the global market and found that iPhone and i-phone could not be registered because of similar trademarks. This is why Liu Yingjian said, "Apple wants to buy it."
As for why the head of Hanwang came to help at this time, according to what he said in an interview...
"I had never paid attention to Yike's mobile phones before, until I went abroad in December and saw many young people using them. I also bought one myself. It is really good! It is indeed a product that changes the industry!"
"Yike Company is very good. It can go abroad and compete with international manufacturers. This makes me appreciate and admire it very much."
"Although I have never met Mr. Fang, I know that Mr. Fang holds Jin Huaiyu and has a very good character."
When Fang Zhuo saw the complete interview content of Liu Yingjian in the media, he couldn't help but admire it.
It’s easy to talk about products and companies.
It is clear at a glance where the sales volume of Mars is and where the competitiveness of Yike Company is.
Only by truly perceiving character from the smallest details can you see true skill.
He is worthy of being a business veteran.
It was already New Year's Eve, and it was inconvenient for Fang Zhuo to find any media to imitate the public communication at this time, but he also couldn't solve it quietly in private - there was no way for people to make a public statement like this and end it quietly.
Fortunately, Sina Weibo is a more suitable public platform.
"I have used Hanwang's handwriting system for a long time. The pioneering nature of Hanwang Company is admirable. It is a good time to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new in the New Year. It is a good time to visit Mr. Liu and have tea and exchange ideas."
Although they have never interacted with each other before, the other party shows goodwill and this kind of relationship will become familiar quickly after meeting each other.
As for whether this interaction exists...
According to common sense, Apple would have to spend millions of dollars to resolve the trademark that Liu Yingjian was willing to transfer. This was a small trick for Fang Zhuo, but it was definitely worth a lot of money to Hanwang Company.
Fang Zhuo had not planned to restrict himself in this aspect before, but he would not refuse his friend's kindness, which could be used as a bargaining chip to negotiate patents and other issues with Apple.
If Apple wants to enter the Chinese market, it must resolve the trademark issue. Of course, it can simply abandon the iPhone and rename it, but whether it wants to do so depends on future communications.
During the Spring Festival vigil, Fang Zhuo got his wish and heard the sound of "Yike mobile phone greeting Chinese people around the world" at 0:00 o'clock in the Spring Festival Gala. This also symbolized the launch of Yike's domestic company promotion activities.
After receiving daily holiday greetings from various big shots, he received a greeting phone call from Liu Yingjian, the head of Hanwang Technology, on the first day of the new year.
The Chinese New Year is a natural and smooth node for emotional connection. Fang Zhuo said he would visit the other party in Beijing, and Liu Yingjian wanted to come to Shanghai.
Although the current business performance is quite different, Fang Zhuo consciously controls Jin Huaiyu and refuses to let the business veteran come to his place during the Chinese New Year. However, Liu Yingjian used a reason to convince him.
"Mr. Fang, you're welcome. I'm going to Shanghai to visit relatives. If you don't tell me then, I'll go to your place to sit there." Liu Yingjian was very forthright.
Visiting relatives... People are coming to Shanghai to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year. What else is there to recommend?
Fang Zhuo naturally agreed enthusiastically and made an appointment to treat Senior Liu to tea on the morning of the third grade of junior high school.
This phone call made him have a good impression of his new friend.
Two days before the Chinese New Year, in addition to sighing that the children he met last year were growing well, Fang Zhuo was also asked a question by his family. It was time to consider the issue of the child - even if, as Su Wei said, she disliked shares and company control.
, huge assets are troublesome to negotiate, and marriage is just a formality, so when you reach the age of having children, you can’t always be busy with work, right?
This Spring Festival is the same as last year when two families get together.
Fang Zhuo was questioned directly by his parents, and was also politely questioned by Weiwei's parents.
He discussed this issue with Weiwei in the evening of the second year of junior high school.
Su Wei faced Fang Zhuo's careful discussion and expressed her attitude very directly: "We will wait until Tesco is ready."
"What does it mean to be good?" Fang Zhuo asked along the way.
"It just makes Taobao sigh, but Tesco has Mr. Su, this is a good job." Su Wei set the standard.
Fang Zhuo was very dissatisfied with this answer. After taking control of Weiwei, he pretended to be angry and said: "To deal with me, you are just to deal with me."
"So what? What?" Su Wei remained calm in the face of danger.
Fang Zhuo can only choose... to wander around the world, wander around on the bed, wander around on the carpet, and wander around on the sofa.
Overall, this Spring Festival is quite enjoyable for him. Mars will test swordsmanship with heroes from all walks of life right in front of him. The acquisition list is also waiting for Storm to try one by one in the second half of the year. Bingxin will also welcome Liang Mengsong's official appointment in August.
The only frown-inducing news comes from SMIC.
Zhang Rujing did not celebrate the New Year in China. He has been dealing with the entanglement with Taiwanese reporters in the United States.
However, during Fang Zhuo's New Year's call, Zhang Rujing talked about how the Alameda County High Court's handling of the case was not ideal, and that the process was relatively fast. Recently, there was news that Taiwan journalists continued to file complaints with the ITC.
Fang Zhuo asked what the worst outcome would be.
Zhang Rujing faced this question but did not answer it for a long time.
This silence alone is enough to prove that something is indeed not good.
Fang Zhuo could only simply comfort the other party. SMIC was struggling so hard back then, but now it is just another challenge.
After actually hanging up the phone, he thought silently in the study for a long time. After thinking about it, he couldn't find a good solution. He could only hope that Bing Xin could go on solidly.
At 9:30 a.m. on the third day of the Lunar New Year, Fang Zhuo received Liu Yingjian and his party at the hotel.
As soon as they met, Liu Yingjian praised Yike's achievements and incidentally told him the reason why he bought Mars abroad in the first place.
"Mr. Fang, my son is a loyal fan of yours. He can't wait to play your speeches, minority groups, and self-renovations on a loop on his mobile phone." Liu Yingjian introduced his son Liu Qiutong, who came with him.
Fang Zhuo was a little surprised and looked at Mr. Liu's shy son. He was quite handsome and looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old.
"He is studying in the United States now. I told him to wait until he goes to college and then return to China to take over my class. Mr. Fang, what do you think he said?" Liu Yingjian asked with a smile.
Seeing this situation, Fang Zhuo just changed his mind and smiled: "What's the point of taking over? That's what the majority does. Why not come to Yike to be the minority that changes the industry."
Liu Yingjian laughed, this is indeed the correct answer.
A few people sat down and chatted.
"Mr. Fang, Apple came to me twice, but I didn't agree. I happened to be in Shanghai today, so I thought it would be better to hit the right date, so I even brought the trademark transfer agreement." Liu Yingjian worked in a straightforward manner and chatted briefly.
After saying "Children", I took out several stamped documents from my bag.
Fang Zhuo was surprised. This relationship was not even warm. How could it be like this?
He glanced at the document and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, the trademark was applied for by Hanwang. I will tell you the truth. It is indeed useful to Yike. I am very grateful if you are willing to transfer it. I will add another two hundred to whatever price Apple offers."
Ten thousand U.S. dollars."
Liu Yingjian pretended to be displeased and wanted to put the pen into Mr. Fang's hand: "Mr. Fang, what I said is true. You would never think that I was holding this thing for sale, saying it was a free transfer."
It's free of charge. If you mention the word money again today, I can only turn around and leave."
Fang Zhuo pondered, the old man was so refreshing, it was really embarrassing not to pay for the goods in his stomach.
