270 Not only did the enemy refuse to negotiate, but they also dared to fight back at me.(1/2)
"According to Bloomberg, Logic was countered by Samsung. Samsung said that Logic's MP3 devices used Samsung's protected technology without authorization, and yesterday it sued Logic to a court in London..."
"Recently, the long-awaited Logic-Samsung patent lawsuit finally came to an end. The Seattle District Court in the United States made a first-instance judgment, saying that Samsung Electronics had infringed on several Logic patents and must publicly apologize to the other party, pay $50 million in compensation, and recall all problematic MP3 players.
.”
"Won the first patent case! The logical victory is the first overseas patent litigation case that a Chinese enterprise has won since China's accession to the WTO, and it has been recorded in the history of Chinese enterprises..."
"Samsung issued a statement stating that it is not satisfied with the verdict and has filed an appeal with the High Court. The case will be..."
"Beep!"
Lu Fei sat in the backstage lounge of the Moscone Convention Center, turned off the TV, and turned his attention to Goodman, Guo Xing and others who were also in the room.
"Saul, is England's case safe?"
"Theoretically, our winning rate is greater."
Goodman adjusted his glasses and explained concisely.
"For example, Intel has obtained patent authorization from Samsung. According to the FRAND principle, companies holding basic standard patents must authorize others to use them. There is no problem with the logic.
But we can’t rule out that it will use this as an excuse to do something.”
Guo Xing curled his lips: "Li Fuzhen's peace talks now seem to be a delaying strategy."
"It's not our delaying strategy."
Lu Fei took advantage of the expiration of the "priority supply" agreement to increase orders for Samsung flash memory. The current inventory is enough to support two months of production capacity.
"When will Toshiba's production capacity be increased?"
"They promised to do it within two to three months, and they are quite willing to jointly develop a flash memory production line with us and Huawei."
Guo Xing smiled and said, "But President Nishiro hopes to meet Mr. Lu in person. He will retire soon."
Lu Fei happily agreed. This was to let him know his successor, "Don't decide the time yet, wait until we solve the Samsung problem."
"President Nishimuro understands very well and is happy to see us go to war with Samsung."
"Nonsense! Toshiba and Samsung are mortal enemies, let alone the neon stick."
"Ha ha!"
Guo Xing gave a thumbs up, "Mr. Lu used Samsung to deceive, no, to motivate Toshiba to cooperate with us. This is a great trick!"
"Hmph, isn't Samsung's flash memory also authorized by Toshiba? Do you really think that logic can't be used without Samsung?"
Lu Fei smiled coldly, "But we are putting on a show to create an illusion. We have to beg for a contract renewal urgently, but at the same time, we are embarrassed by Samsung's harsh conditions..."
"Show the enemy weakness."
Guo Xing couldn't help but sigh, one word, absolutely (yin)!
Lu Fei looked at each other, and the two went on to talk about the pricing of lmusic2, the latest version of Spotify, and promotion and marketing strategies...
Guo Xing pondered for a while, "Mr. Lu, do we still need to invite Samsung?"
"It's necessary, it's very necessary."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "I need to remind them specially."
………
That night, hotel in Boston.
At this time, there was an additional man in Li Fuzhen's bedroom.
Ren Youzai bit the penholder, watched his wife umming and umming, hung up the phone, and said curiously:
"Who called?"
"Logical Mr. Lu, he asked us to attend the press conference."
"it's him?"
Ren Youzai picked up the book that his wife read the most on weekdays and poked the "Lu" in the author column.
Li Fuzhen nodded, "I think we should go."
"We? And me?"
Ren Youzai threw the book aside, "Didn't you say that my eldest brother doesn't agree to the peace talks? Since we are enemies, there is still a need to go!"
"There is a saying in China, 'Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles'. The more you want to defeat your opponent, the more you must understand your opponent..."
Li Fuzhen kept talking, and Ren Youzai's expression changed drastically.
The more he listened, the more he felt inferior, nervous, and uneasy. A lot of pressure swept over him, and he felt uncomfortable as a macho man.
"enough!"
"Eh?"
Li Fuzhen noticed it keenly and decisively shut up.
The atmosphere fell into awkward silence for a while. In order to ease it, she changed the topic to her homework, picked up the book and read it, her expression stiffened.
After scribbling and correcting, the writing was incomprehensible and confusing.
Even the English letters are crooked and words are spelled wrongly.
"Dear, you studied at MIT..."
"Of course it's not good!"
Ren Youzai said in the tone of a villain who complains first: "I'm just a security guard. I only have a high school degree. I didn't even learn English well, so you just threw me into this place. This is hell!"
"Dad is also doing it for your own good." Li Fuzhen said softly.
"Good intentions can turn into bad intentions! It's not like you don't understand me. Why didn't you persuade me? Why did you push me into hell?"
Ren Youzai slapped him down and said sternly: "We have been separated in different places for two years. Two years, do you know how I have spent these two years! I have been thinking about you, how can I have the time to study!"
Li Fuzhen opened his mouth, feeling moved and guilty.
While the couple was chatting at night, there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by a "Onie", and she hurriedly ran to open the door.
Li Yinxin stood at the door, not noticing anything strange. Her attention was entirely on the logic conference, and she asked tangledly:
"Are we going or not?"
"go!"
…………
Although Ren Youzai made various excuses, saying that he was either busy with studies or not interested, he could not resist Li Fuzhen. Sister Li Yinxin persuaded him, so he had to follow him to San Francisco.
Just arrived yesterday, today, July 11, a group of people entered the Moscone Convention Center. At this time, there was a sea of people.
Fans who took the initiative to apply for qualifications on the official website have already been looking forward to it and can’t wait to enter.
Hundreds of media invited by Logic also flocked to the event.
Especially the "New York Times" and "Wired" are all focused on lmusic2 and the dispute with Samsung.
In addition, friendly companies such as Philips, Apple, Sony, and Samsung also sent people to spy on the enemy.
The exhibition hall, which can accommodate a full 2,000 people, was packed with seats.
Such a scene is no less than the press conference held by Steve Jobs.
Li Yinxin looked around, looking at the crowd of people, looking towards the stage illuminated by spotlights. An alarm clock was projected on the screen, slowly approaching 6:30.
"5,4,3,2..."
"1!"
Lu Fei stepped on the stage and went on stage empty-handed.
As always, pure white short sleeves and dark blue jeans redefine the fashion of trendy IT men and make Li Yinxin look like a deer.
"Snapped."
"Bah bang bang."
There was a little applause at first, then a round of applause, and then a round of applause.
Li Yinxin couldn't calm down for a long time while listening to the thunderous applause. She looked left and right and saw Li Fuzhen clapping appreciatively and Ren Youzai absent-mindedly running away.
Then I looked at the stage. I saw a hot man with a slight beard. He was a million times different from when we met at the E3 exhibition.
"Hi! Guys."
Lu Fei is like Dong Jianguo, pointing his finger at the audience.
In China, this is a particularly rude provocation, but in America, it rules the world and is absolutely confident.
He pressed his hands and made his opening remarks.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time. I wanted to host it since lmusic1 got the first user, and soon there will be the 10th, 100th, 1000th...
The millionth one, now, there are 2 million in the world.
What does it represent? lmusic1 is the most popular mp3 player in the world, no one else."
