Chapter 741 Patent authorization, this thing is too terrible
After spending a week at home to compensate Huang Xiaomei, and then to compensate Zhu Su'e for a week, Guo Yongren thought that he should go out. After all, he would have a meeting with David next month and go to London to see Aselina. Guo Yongren made a decision.
Let Amelia book a ticket and charter a direct flight to London. Her large aircraft is still under construction day and night. This also involves an internal balance problem. It is not so easy to solve now. However, once it is solved, then Boeing
You can make money with this patent.
According to Erma's estimate, it will take at least a few months. Guo Yongren can only wait patiently. After all, this aircraft is a prototype and will need to be toured around the world in the future. Guo Yongren did not spend a penny. Boeing's efforts
Bigger than Guo Yongren.
Two days later, after arriving in London, Aselina went to the airport to pick up the plane. Guo Yongren walked out of the passage and got in the car directly, and went straight to Victory Manor. It was already dark, and White had already arranged food at home.
After arriving home, Guo Yongren drank some tea and went directly to eat. He endured the meal on the plane and now he could have a good meal. Vincent and the others had other places to eat, so Guo Yongren didn't need to worry.
After dinner, Guo Yongren took a bath and went directly to rest. Of course, our duchess would not let Guo Yongren rest easily. After struggling twice, he went to rest with satisfaction.
The sky is slowly getting brighter. Guo Yongren didn't get up early to exercise today. He really has no energy. However, Aselina got up early and exercised. Aselina is very concerned about maintaining her figure. She goes to exercise when she has nothing to do.
Body to maintain your devilish figure.
Guo Yongren didn't wake up until almost ten o'clock. He looked at the time and smiled bitterly. He got up and went to wash up. He has recovered a lot after sleeping. Since he started practicing Tai Chi, Guo Yongren's physical recovery ability has been greatly improved.
improvement.
After washing, he went downstairs and came to the living room. Aselina and Amelia were discussing fashion. Guo Yongren didn't pay attention. He went to the kitchen and ate two pieces of bread, then drank some milk, and finally went straight to the garden for a walk.
How much activity is good for you.
White went to the garden and found Guo Yongren. "Sir, lawyer Benjamin is here," White reported. Guo Yongren was stunned. This speed is fast enough. Could there be something wrong? According to normal habits, Benjamin should come to him tomorrow.
"Bring him here, and bring us a pot of tea by the way. I'll wait for him at the resting place in the garden," Guo Yongren said directly, and White nodded and left.
Guo Yongren walked to the rest area, which was very complete with tables, chairs and benches. Soon, White came over with a pot of tea and Benjamin. Guo Yongren shook hands with Benjamin, the two sat down, and White left.
Guo Yongren poured two cups of tea, "Ben, what happened?" Guo Yongren asked. Benjamin nodded. It was not an urgent matter, and Benjamin would not come here today.
"Boss, Burton wants to meet with you. The main discussion is about wireless phone patent licensing." Benjamin said directly, and Guo Yongren frowned.
"Burton knows very well what patents mean to us, so why would he talk to us about it at this time?" Guo Yongren asked.
"As far as I know, Burton was sent to test it out from above. After all, the patent law is here. Once we file a lawsuit, the British communications companies will basically need to pay us large amounts of compensation. This is something the British government is unwilling to do."
"I saw it," Benjamin said seriously, and Guo Yongren nodded.
"I have thought about this matter. Antitrust laws are not a decoration. We will definitely need to relax them by then. But, isn't it now? The competition among domestic communication companies in the UK has already decided the winner?" Guo Yongren asked.
"Not yet, but it's coming soon. In the end, there are only three companies left. These three companies are all companies with deep backgrounds and strong funds." Benjamin said seriously. Guo Yongren nodded, understanding Benjamin's
mean.
"What I mean is to grant licenses to two, and no more if there are more. The remaining one needs to be fully acquired by us. In this way, we will be based on the British communications market, and the rest is competition and hard work.
Capital, my umbrella is never afraid of fighting." Guo Yongren looked at Benjamin and said seriously.
Benjamin smiled. The umbrella is rich, quite rich. The company will be integrated soon. Each branch will basically become a multinational company. There are eleven multinational groups. This kind of strength is really not what the UK has to offer.
Those capitals can compete.
"Boss, judging from what Burton said to me, he didn't tell everything. There are some things he should talk to you about." Benjamin said seriously. Benjamin had already understood what Burton meant. The rest depends on Guo Yongren's decision.
.
Guo Yongren thought for a while, "Ben, please make arrangements and I invite him to come to Victory Manor for dinner." Guo Yongren said directly. It is quite safe to talk here. Many things can be discussed openly without any need to be secretive.
"Okay, I'll contact him," Benjamin said with a smile. This matter was not a big deal, and Guo Yongren nodded.
"Boss, not only are British communications companies fighting fiercely this year, but communications companies from France, Germany, and other countries are also fighting fiercely. I estimate that many people are thinking of having a good talk with you. After all, communications are now a big deal.
There is no way around our protective umbrella," Benjamin said seriously.
"Ben, I won't hide from you. I have considered this. The original plan was to enter the European market in a big way tomorrow. We would first carry out comprehensive prosecutions and use the name of our umbrella, and then slowly authorize each country
A maximum of two authorizations are given, and no more is impossible. By then, our umbrella can also openly intervene in the European communications market. After all, we are far ahead of them in terms of technology, which has established our umbrella's position in the global communications market in one fell swoop. Now it seems that we need
It's ahead of schedule." Guo Yongren said with a long sigh.
After hearing this, Benjamin also let out a long sigh. The plan is very good, but the communication companies in various European countries are not fools, especially now that it is almost time to decide the winner. After almost a year of hard work, the small
Basically none of the companies can continue to operate, and the remaining ones are all well-capitalized.
Now these companies are facing a fatal problem, patent authorization. This thing is too critical. I contacted Umbrella, and Umbrella gave a clear reply. I have not considered authorization now, and I hope they will stop infringement.
How is this possible? Everyone has invested so much, but once the umbrella sues them, they will definitely lose the case. There is no doubt about this. They have started to look for the government, hoping that the government can solve this problem.
The government also has a headache, because the government simply does not want to open the communications market to umbrellas.
In later generations, we all know that it is difficult for American communication companies to establish a foothold in Europe, and it is difficult for European communication companies to establish a foothold in the Americas. Each country has its own communication company. The reason for this is, firstly, because the profits are too great, and secondly, the country
As for security issues, there are too many things that can be done here.
Furthermore, Umbrella is also a complex enterprise, quite complex. It is undeniable that Umbrella has strength, but the ingredients of Umbrella make people very uneasy. It is involved with the United States, with the mainland, and also with some European countries.
It involves such a complex enterprise, and no country can trust it.
It's a pity that when you develop communications now, you can't get around the protection umbrella, because the protection umbrella holds patents, and there are also patents signed and approved by their own country. At that time, they couldn't see anything wrong, but now, you can't wait to chop them off, because you can't do anything.
There is no way around this patent. There are not one but hundreds of patents. It is impossible to avoid infringement.
If you want to use tough administrative measures to take it back, it won't work. The protective umbrella has investments in all countries and is related to the political forces of each country. Once you dare to use tough measures, the opponents will definitely not mind making the matter bigger. Those politicians are just
They don't care about your ruling party's shit. They only care about one thing, and that is that nothing happens to the financial backers behind them.
Margaret Thatcher in the UK was a strong-armed figure. It was not that she did not want to be tough on Umbrella, but the opposition Labor Party was clearly opposed to it. Now there are more than a dozen rising members of the Labor Party who are supported by Umbrella, and Umbrella has also entered the protection of the Labor Party.
In the list, since the protective umbrella supports our Labor Party, it must be protected, and this is non-negotiable.
Another issue is the patent law. Once there is a falling out, the umbrella really does not grant authorization, then the UK must shut down the communication company that appeared. This matter is related to the country’s credibility and must be done. A regime that violates the laws of its own country.
It will definitely worry all countries, and the ruling party knows this very well.
Burton wanted to talk to Guo Yongren for this reason. Although the two parties have not reached a compromise on this matter for the time being, it is not a problem to keep delaying it. Big bosses within the Labor Party have found Burton, hoping that Burton and the umbrella
Let’s talk about allowing Umbrella to authorize British companies. Of course, Umbrella can also enter the British communications market.
Burton knew in his heart that the current plan adopted by Protective Umbrella was what he had told Guo Yongren, and it was indeed necessary to talk about it now. There was a lot of room for maneuver, and it also had many benefits for himself. At least for now, he became
After becoming the Mayor of London, his support rate skyrocketed, which was not unrelated to the good relationship he maintained with Umbrella. Burton was quite satisfied with Umbrella's cooperation, so Burton contacted Benjamin.
"By the way, how is our London bubble and commercial street going?" Guo Yongren asked
"Everything is very good. The London Bubble has been rented out. The rent is the highest in London. The commercial street has started to be renovated. It will take until next year to start leasing operations." Benjamin said directly, Guo Yongren
