Chapter 721 Patent authorization, this thing is terrible [fourth update]

After losing Huang Xiaomei for a week at home, and then losing Zhu Su'e for a week, Guo Yongren thought that he should go out. After all, he is going to have a meeting with David next month, and go to London to see Arthur Lina. Guo Yongren has made a decision.

Let Emilia book a ticket and charter a direct flight to London. My big plane is still under construction day and night. This also involves an internal balance problem. It is not so easy to solve now, but once it is solved, then Boeing With this patent, you can earn money.

According to Omar'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 a global tour in the future. Guo Yongren didn't spend a penny, and Boeing worked hard. Bigger than Guo Yongren.

Two days later, when we arrived in London, Aserina went to the airport to pick up the plane. Guo Yongren walked out of the aisle and got into the car, heading straight to Victory Manor. It was already dark, and White had already arranged food at home.

After arriving at home, Guo Yongren drank some tea and went directly to eat. He endured a meal on the plane, and now he can have a good meal. Wen Sen and the others have another place to eat, so Guo Yongren does not need to worry.

After dinner, Guo Yongren took a shower and went to rest directly. Of course, our duchess would not let Guo Yongren rest easily. After tossing twice, he went to rest contentedly.

The sky is slowly getting brighter. Guo Yongren didn't get up early to exercise today. He really has no energy. Arthur Linna got up early to exercise. Arthur Linna is very concerned about maintaining her figure, and she goes to exercise when she has nothing to do Body, to maintain his devil figure.

Guo Yongren didn't wake up until almost ten o'clock. He looked at the time and smiled wryly. He got up 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, I went downstairs and came to the living room. Aserina and Emilia were discussing fashion. Guo Yongren didn't care. He knew that he went to the kitchen to eat two pieces of bread, then drank some milk, and finally went directly to the garden for a walk. How much activity is good for yourself.

White went to the garden and found Guo Yongren, "Sir, lawyer Benjamin is here." White reported, Guo Yongren was taken aback, this speed is fast enough, is there something, according to usual 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 rest area in the garden." Guo Yongren said directly, and White nodded and left.

Guo Yongren walked to the rest area, where the tables, chairs and benches were very complete. Soon, White came over with a pot of tea and brought 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, and Benjamin nodded. It's not urgent, and Benjamin won't be 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 is very clear about what patents mean to us, so why would he talk to us about this matter at this time?" Guo Yongren asked.

"As far as I know, Burton was sent by the higher authorities to test it out. After all, the patent law is here. Once we file a lawsuit, the British communication companies basically need to pay us a large amount of compensation. This is something that the British government is unwilling to do. I saw it," Benjamin said seriously, and Guo Yongren nodded.

"I have considered this matter. The anti-monopoly law is not a decoration. We will definitely need to let it go. But, isn't it now that the competition among domestic communication companies in the UK has already been decided?" Guo Yongren asked.

"Not yet, but it's coming soon. In the end, there are only three companies left. These three companies are companies with a strong background and strong capital." Benjamin said seriously, and Guo Yongren nodded, understanding Benjamin's point of view mean.

"What I mean is to authorize two of them. If there are too many, we will not give any more. The remaining one needs to be fully acquired by us. In this way, we will gain a foothold in the British communication market, and the rest is competition. Capital, my umbrella is never afraid of war," Guo Yongren looked at Benjamin and said seriously.

Benjamin smiled, the umbrella is rich, quite rich, the company will soon be integrated, and each branch will basically become a multinational company. Eleven multinational groups, this strength is really not in the UK. Those capitals can compete.

"Boss, judging from what Burton told me, he didn't say everything. He should have some things to talk to you." Benjamin said seriously, Benjamin had already understood what Burton meant, and the rest was up to Guo Yongren's decision up.

Guo Yongren thought for a while, "Ben, make arrangements, I invite him to dinner at Victory Manor." Guo Yongren said directly, talking here is quite safe, and many things can be talked about openly, without hiding.

"Okay, I'll contact him." Benjamin said with a smile, this matter is not a big deal, Guo Yongren nodded.

"Boss, this year not only the British communication companies are fighting fiercely, but the communication companies in France, Germany, and other countries are also fighting fiercely. I guess, many people are thinking of having a good talk with you. After all, playing communication now You can't get around our umbrella," Benjamin said seriously.

"Ben, I won't hide it from you. I have considered this aspect. The original plan was to enter the European market in a big way tomorrow. First, we will conduct a comprehensive prosecution and use the name of our umbrella, and then slowly authorize each country. It is impossible to give two authorizations at the most. At that time, our umbrella can enter the European communication market in a fair manner. After all, we are far ahead of them in technology, and we will establish our umbrella in the global communication market in one fell swoop. Now it seems that we need It's ahead of time," Guo Yongren said with a long sigh.

After listening to Benjamin, he 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 time to decide the winner. After almost a year of shopping, Xiao The companies basically can't continue to operate, and the rest are well-capitalized.

Now these companies are facing a fatal problem, patent licensing, this thing is too terrible, contacted the umbrella, the umbrella clearly replied that they have not considered licensing now, and hope that they will stop the infringement.

How is this possible? Everyone has already invested so much. However, once the umbrella sues them, they will definitely lose the case. There is no doubt about this. People who come and go will start looking for the government, hoping that the government can solve this problem. The government is also a headache, because the government does not want to open the communication market to the umbrella at all.

In later generations, we all know that it is difficult for American communication companies to gain a foothold in Europe, and it is difficult for European companies to gain a foothold in America. Every country has its own communication companies. The reason for this is that the profits here are too large, and the second is that the country Security issues, there are too many operable things here.

Another thing is that Umbrella is also a complex enterprise, quite complicated. It is undeniable that Umbrella has strength, but the composition of Umbrella makes people very worried. It is involved with the United States and the mainland. Similarly, it is also involved with some European countries. Involvement, such a complex enterprise, no country can rest assured of him.

It's a pity, now that you develop communications, you can't get around the umbrella, because the umbrella holds patents in its hands, and there are patents signed and approved by their own countries. Back then, there was nothing wrong with it. Now, you can't wait to chop your hands, because you don't know This patent cannot be bypassed, not one, but hundreds of patents, and it is difficult to avoid infringement at all.

If you want to use tough administrative means to take it back, it won’t work. The umbrella has investment from all countries, and it has something to do with the political forces of each country. Once you dare to use tough measures, those who oppose it will definitely not mind making things big. They don't care about the shit of your ruling party. They only care about one thing, that is, that nothing happens to the benefactor behind them.

Margaret Thatcher in the United Kingdom is a strong man. It’s not that she doesn’t want to be tough on the umbrella, but the opposition Labor Party clearly opposes it. Now there are more than a dozen MPs in the Labor Party who are rising well. They all support the umbrella, and the umbrella has also entered the protection of the Labor Party. In the list, since the umbrella supports our Labor Party, it must be protected. This is not negotiable.

The other is the issue of patent law. Once a fallout occurs and the umbrella is really not authorized, then the UK must shut down the communication company that appears. This is a matter of national credibility and must be done. A regime that violates its own national laws, It will definitely worry all countries, and the ruling party understands this very well.

It is also for this reason that Burton wanted to talk to Guo Yongren. Although the two parties have not reached a compromise on this matter for the time being, it is not a matter of delaying it. The big bosses in the Labor Party have found Burton. Talk about letting the umbrella authorize British companies. Of course, the umbrella can also enter the British communication market.

Burton knew in his heart that the current plan adopted by the umbrella was what he told Guo Yongren, and now he really needs to talk about it. There is a lot of room for manipulation, and there are also many benefits for him. At least for now, he has become After the mayor of London, the approval rate has skyrocketed. This is not unrelated to the good relationship between him and the umbrella. Burton is quite satisfied with the cooperation of the umbrella. Therefore, 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 fully rented out, and the rent is the highest in London. The commercial street has already started renovations. It will take next year to start the rental operation." Benjamin said directly, Guo Yongren nodded.
