I was born again with 100 million

Chapter 193

Lin Xiao turned off the chat with Xiao Ma, at this moment, Yang Guanbin said:
"Mr. Lin, after our patent application was published, it was questioned."

"Huh?" Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback.

"Just received a notice from the Patent Center, because some people are currently questioning the novelty and creativity of our patent applications related to Eternal Technology, the substantive examination that was originally scheduled to be carried out on the first day after the National Holiday may have to be postponed a little bit."

Lin Xiao frowned immediately after hearing this, the novelty and creativity of the USB flash drive, is this still questionable?
Before this, no one else has ever mentioned it, and everyone thinks this idea is very good.

Moreover, the previous Netac started to develop USB flash drives in 1999, and finally obtained the invention right. Now I am a year ahead of schedule, how could anyone else be earlier than me?
After thinking about it, Lin Xiao still thinks there is no problem with these two. Even if someone raises doubts, the probability of the application being withdrawn is very small.

Therefore, Lin Xiao asked Yang Guanbin, "Did you say when the substantive review will be carried out?"

"I didn't say a very specific time." Yang Guanbin shook his head, "But they also said that they will send a formal letter immediately to ask the questioner to provide relevant evidence. If the other party does not provide it, they will enter the substantive review stage as soon as possible. It is initially estimated that the delay will not exceed a week."

"And if the challenger does provide valid evidence, they will conduct a substantive review based on the evidence. In this case, the time may be delayed."

After hearing this, Lin Xiao nodded and pondered for a while. He still called Tang Xingchang to ask if there was any infringement in the patent application.

"It's impossible!" Tang Xingchang said immediately after hearing what Lin Xiao said:
"There is absolutely no problem with the novelty and creativity of the USB flash drive. Based on my knowledge of this industry, there is no other similar technological invention."

"At the beginning, I specially invited an old friend to search the world's technologies. The invention of the USB flash drive is absolutely unique." Tang Xingchang said very resolutely.

"Okay, Mr. Tang." Lin Xiao, who was already very confident, felt more at ease now.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiao said to Yang Guanbin, "Whether it's me or Mr. Tang, we both have enough confidence in the novelty and creativity of this technology, so we're not afraid of being questioned."

Speaking of this, Lin Xiao thought for a while, and said to Yang Guanbin: "Senior Brother Yang, come and analyze this matter carefully, is this an abnormal behavior?"

"Boss Lin means that someone is malicious?" Yang Guanbin reacted.

Lin Xiao nodded. It was all too coincidental. As soon as his patent application was announced, someone immediately questioned it. It seemed that someone was waiting for his patent application to be announced.

Yang Guanbin continued at this time: "This kind of situation is not ruled out. If you think in this direction, the most likely person is someone with a conflict of interest."

After pondering for a while, Lin Xiao said, "We still need to find someone to find out more accurate information before we can make a judgment."

As he said that, Lin Xiao asked Yang Guanbin: "Brother, how about I call Director Xu to find out what's going on?"

"I think it's okay. That day, Minister Li told Director Xu to be responsible for tracking and coordinating. Now that this situation has arisen, it shouldn't be too abrupt to give him feedback." Yang Guanbin nodded.

Hearing that Yang Guanbin also agreed to contact him, Lin Xiao immediately took out his phone and called Director Xu.

"Student Lin Xiao, why call me when you have time?" Director Xu was very enthusiastic after answering the phone.

Lin Xiao immediately said with a smile: "The main thing is to thank Director Xu for his concern for our company. At present, this patent application has been published..."

After saying some words of thanks, Lin Xiaoshun talked about the current situation where some people raised doubts.

"Oh? Someone questioned, your technology should be completely new and original."

Director Xu was a little surprised. At that time, because the leaders were going to investigate, they did a lot of homework on purpose, and naturally they also had a certain understanding of the technology of Eternal Technology.

Hearing what the other party said, Lin Xiao also followed up and said: "That's right, and in terms of technology, Academician Tang Xingchang participated in the whole process. He even searched and compared the global technologies in the industry."

"Okay, I understand the matter, you wait, I'll find out the situation right away." Director Xu said immediately at the other end.

With that said, the two hung up the phone.

Because Director Xu said that he would understand the situation immediately, Lin Xiao and the two didn't go anywhere. Yang Guanbin sat in Lin Xiao's office and waited.

Director Xu was very efficient. About 10 minutes later, he called again.

"Okay... OK, I'll make a note, thank you Director Xu."

Yang Guanbin has been listening to Lin Xiao answering the phone, waiting for Lin Xiao to hang up the phone, and immediately asked: "How is it?"

"Someone must have escaped maliciously." Lin Xiao said, frowning.

"Director Xu inquired with the Patent Center, and the person who raised the question only provided a very rough explanation, and did not complete the relevant supporting materials, and the other party was unwilling to explain which company or person it was."

After hearing this, Yang Guanbin said immediately: "Mr. Lin, I think the biggest possibility is that some people also want to enter the USB flash drive market, so they are worried that we will get the patent early."

Lin Xiao nodded and said, "You and I want to go together, Brother Yang, let's go to Pengcheng."

"Pengcheng?" Yang Guanbin read, and then asked Lin Xiao: "Did the Patent Center provide the information?"

"Yes, Director Xu told me the contact information left by the questioner. This number belongs to Pengcheng. What he means is that we can also go to find out what's going on in private." Lin Xiao replied.

But both of them knew that if Minister Li didn't attach so much importance to this matter, it would be impossible for them to disclose such information to themselves.

Moreover, Director Xu specifically explained on the phone that because this question itself is not particularly tenable, the Patent Center will ask the other party to provide relevant evidence immediately, and will arrange substantive examination soon.

In general, it gave Lin Xiao a reassurance that the matter of patent authorization did not have much impact.

But for Lin Xiao, he still wanted to see what went wrong. In Pengcheng, where his two current OEMs are located, it is necessary to understand the situation clearly.

"With only one number, it's not so easy for us to go to Pengcheng." Yang Guanbin said at this time, "Mr. Lin, do I need to find someone I know first, and see if I can find out where this number is?"

"No need." Lin Xiao smiled, "I'll figure out a way about this."

Since it is Pengcheng's number, the people from Pengcheng Telecom should be able to find out where it is, and two of Xiao Ma's several entrepreneurial partners seem to work in Pengcheng Telecom.

Sometimes, troubling others appropriately is actually very beneficial for closer relationships.

Originally, I also wanted to have a relationship with Xiao Ma, and there was a reason.

As soon as he boarded the plane to Pengcheng, Lin Xiao received a call from Wang Mingjiang.

The matter of the patent application of Eternal Science and Technology being questioned also reached Wang Mingjiang. It should be Tang Xingchang who said that Wang Mingjiang called to ask about the specific situation and asked Lin Xiao if he wanted to help.

Lin Xiao then told Wang Mingjiang about Director Xu's help in coordinating. Of course, he didn't talk about the Pengcheng phone call. Just because some words caught his ears didn't mean he was about to say them out.

After Wang Mingjiang finished listening, he immediately said: "With the support of Director Xu and the others, it shouldn't be a big problem. As for the originality of technology, Professor Tang also came to me to talk about it just now, and he assured me that there is no problem. "

After a pause, he then said: "By the way, about your bank loan, I have already communicated with the Bank of China. The 3000 million amount is not a big problem. You may go to the Zhongguancun branch recently to find the branch manager." , called Xue..."

As he spoke, Wang Mingjiang paused, as if he couldn't remember his name.

Lin Xiao immediately took over and said, "Xue Jiahui."

"Oh, yes, President Xue Jiahui." Wang Mingjiang said, and then asked in surprise:

"Hey, do you know him?"

Lin Xiao responded with a smile, "I have dealt with you before."

After hearing this, Wang Mingjiang immediately said: "That would be even better. You can go to her in the next two days, and then submit the relevant application materials, and she will be approved for you."

"Okay, thank you principal."

Wang Mingjiang nodded, and then said to Lin Xiao earnestly and earnestly: "Running the business well and doing things well is considered my thanks."

"I saw that your company's public welfare group has been launched in the past two days, and it is doing very well. I hope that you can maintain such a pure heart when you start a business and become an entrepreneur in the future."

Lin Xiao immediately said seriously after hearing this: "I will remember the principal's teachings, morality is based on reason, and Yenching Institute of Technology puts morality at the top of the school motto. As a student, I must always remember it."

"That's good!" Wang Mingjiang smiled gratifiedly.

"Hello, sir, the plane is about to take off, please put your phone in flight mode."

The stewardess came over to remind her at this time, Lin Xiao greeted Wang Mingjiang and hung up the phone.

"Principal Wang's phone number?" Yang Guanbin, who was sitting on the side, asked.

Lin Xiao nodded, "Mr. Tang told the principal about our patent being questioned."

"The teacher still cares about us very much." Yang Guanbin said with emotion.

"Yes, we can only be worthy of their concern if we run the business well." Lin Xiao said with emotion and added another sentence.

"Especially the matter of patents needs to be resolved. This is the hard work of Mr. Tang."

"I hope this trip to Pengcheng will yield better results."

Just as the two were talking, the plane taxied and began to take off.
