Chapter 766 Complaints
"What did you say, Mr. Brian, why did you suddenly think of canceling the order?" The next morning, when He Ming learned from the translator that Brian was going to cancel the $50 order he ordered from their factory, The whole person almost jumped up.

"The products in your factory do not have patent certificates, so I can't buy them from you." Brian said to He Ming through a translator with a blank expression.

"What is a patent certificate?" He Ming was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Mr. Brian, if you think the price of our factory's products is a bit high, we can still talk..."

He Ming has no idea about patents, so he thinks that Brian canceled the order this time because he was a little dissatisfied with the price.

"It's not a question of price, but your factory's products are infringing and use someone else's patented technology design, so it is impossible for us to buy your factory's products." Brian said.

"Patent shit!" Even in front of foreign businessmen, He Ming couldn't help but swear, and he continued: "Mr. Bryan, it's wrong for you to do this, didn't we talk about it before? How can you say that if you don’t buy it, you don’t buy it? What is a patent? It’s useless, so just leave it alone..."

"You actually said that the patent is useless?" Hearing this, Brian was stunned.

You should know that in foreign countries, especially in Europe and the United States, patents are very important, and patent infringement is also a serious crime. In addition to facing huge fines, there may be jail time.

In addition, the fines imposed on infringing manufacturers in foreign countries are also very heavy, which may lead to the direct bankruptcy of the factory. This kind of thing has happened before, so European and American manufacturers like Brian are absolutely afraid to buy and sell products that infringe other people's patents. product.

So when he saw that He Ming had no idea about patent infringement, or even didn't take it seriously, Brian was a little shocked by this attitude.

"Mr. Bryan, do you have some misunderstanding? Didn't you say before that this kind of subwoofer product is considered a new product abroad. Could it be that foreigners have produced this kind of speaker for a long time?" He Ming was a little anxious asked.

"It is true that there is no such subwoofer speaker in foreign countries, but someone found me yesterday and showed the patent certificate of this subwoofer product, so I cannot buy your things..."

"Patent certificate? Whose patent certificate?" He Ming asked repeatedly.

"He said he was the manager of Tianyin Electronics Factory, and his name was Duan Yun..."

"Duan Yun!?" Upon hearing these two words, a look of anger flashed across He Ming's face, and then he said to Brian: "Mr. What kind of patents are used for our products, even if there are patents, they are shared by the whole of China! So there is no need for you to cancel the order..."

"Shared by the whole of China?" Brian shook his head when he heard this, and said after a while: "In short, we, Marks and Spencer, can't take such a risk. We will buy whoever has a patent certificate, so I can only cancel this order. I'll tell your officials about it later."

After Brian finished speaking, he turned and left Beihe Electronics Factory's booth.

"Hey, Mr. Brian, wait a minute... this bastard Duan Yun, I have to go to the leader to complain about him!" Seeing that Brian had left quickly, He Ming was about to explode, and immediately Leaving the exhibition hall, I walked quickly to the office of the organizing committee.

At the same time, several other electronic manufacturers that sell subwoofer audio have also been canceled by foreign companies. For a while, the entire household appliance exhibition hall suddenly exploded. Representatives of these manufacturers also went to the organizing committee to complain to Duan Yun. .

"Do you have anything to do?" Seeing seven or eight factory representatives suddenly pouring into the office, Director Wang of the Canton Fair Secretariat, who was working, glanced at these people and asked suspiciously.

"Director Wang, that Duan Yun is really outrageous. He met with foreign businessmen privately last night to promote their Tianyin subwoofer products, which resulted in the cancellation of our order. This is a serious violation of the Canton Fair discipline. You must deal with it seriously. !" He Ming was the first to say to Director Wang angrily.

"What? There is such a thing!?" Hearing this, Director Wang of the Secretariat suddenly showed anger.

"Yeah, Duan Yun is disorganized and undisciplined. He said that he has a patent certificate for subwoofer audio, and threatened those foreign businessmen that if they don't buy the products of their factory, they will sue them abroad, causing our orders to be rejected. cancelled……"

"Director Wang, our factory finally got an order of 16 US dollars, but Duan Yun messed it up just like that..."

"This Duan Yun is simply lawless! Director Wang, you must deal with it seriously!"

All of a sudden, these seven or eight factory representatives formed a circle around Director Wang and began to criticize Duan Yun.

"Bang!" Director Wang became more and more annoyed the more he listened, he slammed the table, stood up, and said to everyone: "Okay, I already know about this matter, you go back first, I will deal with this paragraph cloud!"

"Then trouble Director Wang."

"To a black sheep like Duan Yun, you must not be soft!"

"It's outrageous. It's great to have a patent application with a chicken feather as an arrow? What..."

After the representatives of these manufacturers said a few words angrily, they turned and left Director Wang's office.

Seeing the manufacturer's representative leave, Director Wang immediately put down the work at hand and hurried to the machinery hall...

And when the representatives of these manufacturers and Director Wang were complaining, Duan Yun had just signed an order of 60 US dollars.

In fact, at the final stage of the Canton Fair, which is still a few days away, Duan Yun no longer has any pressure on him.

So far, he has signed a total of nearly 920 million US dollars in orders. Compared with the Canton Fair last time, the total amount of orders was nearly 4 times. This is already in addition to China Minmetals Group and China Textile Group. Get the highest orders from the manufacturers.

In fact, Duan Yun can achieve such results, in addition to the excellent quality of Longteng gearbox, there is also a huge subsidy from the state, which makes Duan Yun's Longteng gearbox already have a certain degree of competitiveness in the world.

The orders from the Canton Fair this time are already enough to fill the production capacity of the labor service company this year, and even Duan Yun needs to find more companies to cooperate with in order to deliver these orders on time.

And if Duan Yun's machining factory in Shenzhen opens, it can solve the production of key components of Longteng's gearbox. At that time, Duan Yun's machinery factory and labor service company will both be profitable. This is a win-win deal.

"Duan Yun!!"

Just as Duan Yun was thinking about the plan to set up a factory in Shenzhen, Director Wang had already appeared at the door of the Machinery Hall and shouted at Duan Yun.
