Chapter 433 Trade Secrets
After the battle between Xiehe and 301, Yang Ping began to seize the time to study the external fixator for scoliosis.

Yang Ping has now mastered the skills of writing patent applications. At that time, Yang Ping hired several agencies to write the equipment for children's cruciate ligament reconstruction.

However, these engineers don't understand Yang Ping's equipment well, and when they write and write, they always fail to grasp the key points. If they fail to grasp the key points, they cannot protect intellectual property rights well, and they are easily bypassed by others.

No way, Yang Ping had to do it himself, write the patent application by himself, and then hand it over to the agency company to help apply.

Since that time, Yang Ping also knew the importance of patent application writing, and spent time studying the writing of patent applications.

He also taught Song Zimo, Xu Zhiliang, Zhang Lin, and Xiao Wu to write patent applications, making this a basic skill for everyone to master.

After the patent application for the external fixator of the spine was written, Yang Ping asked the agency company to apply for the patent, and he applied for an international patent. With such an application, the intellectual property rights can be protected in several major countries.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and now he is going to trial production of the new external fixator, which is a difficult task.

This external fixator has very high requirements on materials. The metal rods use high-strength shape memory alloys, and the gears and steel cables must also be very strong to withstand continuous tension without deformation and relaxation.

When designing, the dispersion of orthopedic force is also very particular. If the force is too concentrated, it is easy to cause fractures around the screw; if the force is too chaotic, it is impossible to reverse the deformity. , The combination of material science, the technical content is extremely high.

Yang Ping found several factories, and the other party said that trial production is very difficult, and it cannot be produced by a single factory.

Just a few rods of the memory alloy, to meet the requirements, no one seems to be able to do it at present. This is the only way to accurately grasp the effective deformation parameters of the memory alloy.

Unexpectedly, it is so difficult to turn drawings into reality.

In the system space, it is just a matter of integration, but in reality, there are so many difficulties to be encountered.

Professor Qin also used his own resources to help inquire. At first, he thought it was very simple, just an external fixator, but when he saw the specific drawings and principles, he shook his head and couldn't realize it at all.

Once this external fixator is produced, its advantages are very obvious. Compared with osteotomy correction, its correction is a minimally invasive and gradual process, and it reverses scoliosis. After successful correction, the normal spine sequence and stability can be completely obtained. Sex and activity, most in line with the natural shape of the human body.

However, the disadvantages are also obvious. Compared with osteotomy and correction, it takes a long time. It takes several months to install a metal frame on the back. You can’t sleep on your back. It’s inconvenient to go to school. The percutaneous pedicle screw is exposed. Outside, there is a risk of infection.

Relatively long-term benefits, the disadvantages are completely acceptable.

External fixators for the treatment of limb deformities also need to be kept on the limbs for several months, or even more than a year. The risk of pinhole infection, such as pinhole infection, is completely within the controllable safety limit.

But now trial production, producing samples for animal experiments, is actually so difficult.

Yang Ping will not be discouraged, the blueprints and cases are available, and the monkeys for animal experiments are also ready, and now it is time to produce them.

Huang Jiacai also began to rack his brains for Yang Ping's external fixator, and contacted the manufacturer for trial production.

Other equipment manufacturers did not respond to this matter. Gan Fengyi did not know where to get the news, and also approached Yang Ping, saying that Johnson & Johnson could help with the production, and could spend money to buy patents in the future.

Huang Jiacai and Gan Fengyi have been fighting for the market, and now they are fighting for the production of external fixation of the spine in Yangping.

It is also interesting that other companies have no interest in this set of external fixators, and think that it is a completely immature technology. If they open a mold for production, at least tens of millions of funds will be wasted.

However, Yang Ping offered only one cooperation condition, that is, whoever helped to produce it would be given priority to the patent authorization.

Many manufacturers shook their heads, and the promise of spending tens of millions to buy an immature device is meaningless.

Moreover, there are many difficulties in opening the mold and trial production, which is far from being solved by 1000 million.

But Gan Fengyi's cognition is different from other people's. After getting the news of Yang Ping's equipment, she immediately reported to Johnson & Johnson's China headquarters, and won the trial production qualification of this equipment at all costs.

The headquarters of Johnson & Johnson believed in Gan Fengyi's judgment very much, and immediately notified Gan Fengyi to go all out to win it.

However, Huang Jiacai's situation at this time is not very good. Ruixing Company is already in crisis. As he feared, the major giants have mercilessly smashed down the patent stick, and the lawyer's letter has been sent to Ruixing Company like snowflakes. Then came the court summons.

Ruixing Company, which was planning to go public in full swing, suddenly encountered a patent dispute, and all deployments were disrupted. All energy was used to respond to the lawsuit and deal with the crisis of patent disputes, because once the lawsuit was lost, there was only one result - huge compensation and the company went bankrupt.

Huang Jiacai has lost confidence in Ruixing's various actions, but for the sake of Mr. Wang, he has persisted and worked hard.

The morale of the troops in the other regions of Ruixing was shaken and personnel were lost. Only the South China region was as strong as before. Not only did there not appear to be chaos, but it was actively expanding its territory.

But recently, Gan Fengyi's offensive seems to have weakened, and her steps are even messy. This is not Gan Fengyi's style at all. This is a good thing, but Huang Jiacai is not used to it.

For a long time, in order to compete for the market, especially for the newly reshuffled People's Hospital, the two Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing their special abilities, and the battle was hard to tell.

It's like two masters, fighting vigorously, the opponent suddenly loses.

Huang Jiacai waited for Yang Ping in the consultation room of the General Orthopedics Department, and made an appointment to discuss the difficulties in trial production of the spinal external fixator.

But Gan Fengyi didn't show up, she just sent one of her subordinates over, a young girl, carrying a leather bag, hurried over.

Wouldn't Gan Fengyi come to such an important meeting in person?Send a subordinate over?
Huang Jiacai felt more and more that something was wrong. Johnson's recent actions were completely out of line with Gan Fengyi's style.

Huang Jiacai took out his mobile phone and wanted to send a text message to ask questions. There was Gan Fengyi's phone number on the mobile phone. He ran into her on the road and helped her change a tire. To express her gratitude, Gan Fengyi invited Huang Jiacai's brother and sister to dinner.

I've only eaten once, and I'm not very familiar with it, so why send a text message.

Huang Jiacai put away his phone, and couldn't help being curious: "What's the name of this beauty? You, Manager Gan, haven't seen much recently?"

The beauty representative of Johnson & Johnson got up immediately and nodded: "Xiaoma, you can call me Xiaoma. Manager Gan is on vacation during this time."

Xiao Ma has often heard Huang Jiacai's name from President Gan. Huang Jiacai from Ruixing is registered in their Johnson & Johnson South China District and is often mentioned in meetings.

This Mr. Huang is Mr. Gan's biggest opponent. As Mr. Gan's subordinate, there is no one who doesn't know.

Xiao Ma stood up and bowed just now, he really admired this senior.

This workaholic actually takes a vacation, and the sun comes out from the west. Could it be that he has switched jobs?
Huang Jiacai suddenly felt a little lost, and felt a little flustered, and he didn't know why he felt this way.

"Which company did you Mr. Gan go to? Do you know?" Huang Jiacai asked.

Xiao Ma said respectfully: "No, our President Gan didn't change jobs. Is she really on vacation?"

"Have you gotten married for your honeymoon?" Huang Jiacai said angrily.

Xiao Ma shook his head: "Mr. Gan is single, it seems that she has returned to her hometown. I don't know the details. I only heard from our deputy manager that she cried secretly in the office after receiving a call from home, and then hurried back to her hometown .”

Back home suddenly?Could it be that something happened at home and she cried, that is a big deal.

This woman, if it wasn't some serious matter, would definitely not cry in the office. Huang Jiacai was in a panic. Hearing that this woman was crying, Huang Jiacai actually felt an inexplicable love in his heart.

People have something to do, why are you panicking? Huang Jiacai pretended to be calm, but he didn't know him very well.

The girl Qiangsheng is quite honest, she may have been in the industry not long ago, but she actually told Huang Jiacai everything. During the period when the struggle with Ruixing was so fierce, any changes of people at Gan Fengyi's level should be kept secret.

He is still young, if he meets someone who is ruthless, he may take advantage of this opportunity to launch a fierce offensive and break the market balance between the two companies.

But Huang Jia was unwilling to do this, taking advantage of others' danger was meaningless.

"Mr. Huang, Mr. Gan said that this document is for you." Xiao Ma took out a thick document from his bag and handed it to Huang Jiacai.

Huang Jiacai hesitated for a moment, took it over and saw that it was a commercial secret.

"Give it to me? You must be mistaken."

Huang Jia only turned over a dozen pages before returning it to Xiao Ma.

Xiao Ma was very sure: "Yes, Mr. Gan has repeatedly told you that this document must be handed over to you, and no one else can read it. I put it under my pillow at night when I sleep."

Huang Jiacai opened another thick book, which was the trial production plan of Dr. Yang's spinal external fixator, a complete plan from mold opening, materials, technology, and cooperation in the industrial chain of upstream and downstream enterprises.

The production of this set of equipment involves several key technologies. These technologies are mastered by foreign-funded enterprises. It lists the weaknesses of these enterprises in detail, how to use negotiations, exchange conditions for conditions, disintegrate their technical alliances, and obtain cooperation.

It even lists in detail, some key processes, which manufacturer and person to look for, and even the phone address.

Huang Jia only got goosebumps when he saw half of it. This woman is too powerful, and he thought that Huang Jia was the only one in this world who could do this level.

Unexpectedly, this woman is even worse than Huang Jia.

"Are you sure Gan always gave it to me?"

Huang Jiacai was still skeptical, thinking that there must be a misunderstanding.

This is a commercial secret. To make this information, I don't know how much effort it took.

"Yes, President Gan handed this document to me before leaving. She said that she would give it to you when she attended Dr. Yang's meeting, and that it could not be passed on to anyone else. She also said that in order to complete Dr. Yang's business, except her, Only you can do it, no one else can." Xiao Ma was very serious.

Huang Jiacai took a deep breath and put away the materials.

"I see, where is Mr. Gan's hometown, do you know?" Huang Jiacai couldn't help asking.

Xiao Ma thought for a while and said, "I don't know either."
