Reborn Millennial Gamer

Taking advantage of the National Day, Lu Fei rarely enjoys family happiness.

However, he was not given a chance to relax.

When in the confinement center, accompany the daughter-in-law, hold the child,

On the website of the Telecommunications Equipment Certification Center, Apple's first and second mobile phones have passed the approval successively. The models are named A1324 and A1325, as can be seen from the pictures of the test——

iphone3GS and iphone4!

When you move back to the villa, accompany your wife, hold your child,
iphone4 began to go on sale officially, menacing.

When the tail of the National Day holiday, accompany the wife, hold the child,
Nokia became angry because of logic and Apple's tough attitude, and formally submitted a complaint to the International Trade Commission.

Give me a serious investigation!
Now, there is no way to keep the wife and children on the kang.

Lu Fei suppressed his anger, packed his bags, packed lightly, and flew to the United States. Guo Xing and others had long been waiting.

"Mr. Lu, this is iPhone 4."

In the car, Guo Xing handed over the mobile phone he got.

"How's the sales?"

Lu Fei looked over it over and over again.

"So far, in four days, sales have exceeded 4 million units, but it has not broken the record of 170 units created by our logicX2." Guo Xing reported the data truthfully.

"How is the public opinion on the Internet now?"

Lu Fei touched the antenna position of iphone4.

Guo Xing said with a smile: "It has been on the trending list of Twitter and Facebook. At first, I thought it was an isolated phenomenon. Later, more and more people reported the design defect of the frame antenna, but Apple ignored it. It didn't matter at all. Take it seriously."

"Very consistent with my impression of Apple."

Lu Fei said with a smile: "Apple committed the crime of arrogance, and it should pay for this arrogance. Later, you will connect with Penguin, Facebook and Twitter, and then add fire to Apple."

Guo Xing nodded, "Speaking of adding fire, Mr. Lu, let me show you something." He took out a mobile phone case, "This is called 'Bumper', which was launched at the same time as the iPhone 4, as long as you wear this , the signal attenuation problem will be greatly improved, do you think we are on this..."

"Ha~"

The corner of Lu Fei's mouth raised, and he quickly pulled it off, saying with a serious face: "It is likely that Apple knew about the antenna problem in advance, and deliberately did not solve the problem in order to sell more mobile phone cases."

"That's right, Mr. Lu!"

Guo Xing and the others nodded with a suppressed smile.

"There is even reason to suspect that Jobs made this dumpling out of jealousy and deliberately designed the antenna defect just for the phone case. This is simply crazy!"

"frenzied!"

"Let those YouTubers and self-media add these to the review video." Lu Fei looked righteous and awe-inspiring.

The pants seller tells you, do you still sell pants?

Who has such a good heart like me?
"The copywriting is ready, and I'll arrange it right away. Not surprisingly, after our first wave of video offensive, it will be uploaded to YouTube soon." Guo Xing showed a smirk.

"Remember to add Lucian's video and pictures, so that everyone can see what 'Made in America' is?"

Lu Fei handed back the iphone4 to Guo Xing.

"Okay, Mr. Lu!"

"Let the public opinion be violent again. At the press conference, we will completely ignite it. As for now, let's solve the trouble at hand first. What do the International Trade Commission and the Unfair Import Investigation Office say about our dispute with Nokia?"

"The committee said that the current case is under the jurisdiction of the Unfair Import Investigation Office. The director is called Cruz. He said that Kallasvuo's attitude is very tough. He hopes to arrange a meeting and mediation immediately. If we refuse, we will demand an investigation into the logic immediately. The ruling judgment."

"Is Cruz's immediate boss still Mondale?"

"Yes, he is still the top person in charge of the committee."

"That would be much easier."

Lu Fei turned his mobile phone, "Of course I want to meet, but not with Kallasvuo. I have to meet some old friends first. I haven't fished with them for a long time. You can arrange it for me."

It is suitable for changing from business to leisure, besides golf, it is fishing, and the United States is known as "the paradise of fishing".

The water is clear and the fish are fat, and the fish are plentiful and stupid.

In Prospect Park in Brooklyn, New York, Lu Fei is fishing by the lake with Mondale and other old friends these days.

They may not be good at fishing, but they are good at stock trading.

All of them are the investment gods of the country!
Whether it's stocks or bonds, I used to rely on "luck" more or less, but since I followed Master Lu, it's like God's help.

Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers...

Even short selling Nokia, they have a share.

Today it was Cruz's turn. Besides him, there was also John Paulson who was called to accompany him. He swung the pole, kept stirring the reel, and skillfully used the "lure" technique:

"Lu, what kind of fishing method are you doing?"

"I'm making a nest."

The corner of Lu Fei's mouth curled up, and he threw the bait into the lake.

Looking at the old and the young, talking and laughing, Cruz took a deep breath, being able to fish on the same boat with them——

It's time to decide your own destiny!
"Fishing like this is boring. How about this? I'll add $1000 to the fun." Lu Fei threw out the fishing line, "How about whoever catches the biggest fish in the end will get the prize?"

"Hehe, no problem."

John Paulson squinted at Cruz.

"I, I'm fine."

Cruz was taken aback, why is it only $1000?

You use this to test the cadres?
You are the richest man in the world!
"We Chinese people like fishing very much. There is a saying, 'It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him how to fish'. It means that it is more important to teach people how to fish than to give them food."

Lu Fei showed a mysterious smile.

Cruz was taken aback, half understanding.

Seeing this, John Paulson cooperated and said: "Lu, the world economic situation is becoming increasingly uncertain. The subprime mortgage crisis is still affecting the global financial market. Even institutions like Goldman Sachs are being cautious and cautious now. Where can there be fish?" Fishing.”

"Coincidentally, we Huaxia still have something to say..."

Lu Fei chuckled, "It's called 'the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish', the more cautious the situation is, the more it reflects the value of gold, don't you think?"

gold? !
Are you, are you going to test me with this?

Cruz seems to have heard some incredible information.

Lu Fei pretended to be confused, "Ah, I'm sorry, we have an occupational disease, and we couldn't help talking about finance and investment. I almost forgot that you can't..."

"Haha, Lu, it's okay."

John Paulson waved his hand as a person who has experienced it: "It is clearly stipulated that investment in individual stocks below 1.5 dollars, or mutual funds below 5 dollars is allowed, and there is no restriction on investing in diversified funds and bonds, right, Cruz ?”

"That's right! You don't have to worry about me, just say it!"

Cruz's heart was pounding, and he pricked up his ears seriously.

Say it!Say it!What's under the gold!
"look."

The corner of John Paulson's mouth curled up, "Lu, now that gold has risen to $996.5 per ounce, do you think gold will continue to rise? Is this possible?"

"Yes! Very much!"

Lu Fei threw the news to Cruz like throwing bait, "Don't forget that the U.S. dollar and gold are enemies. As long as the U.S. dollar depreciates, gold will strengthen. As the former Treasury Secretary, you should know that the United States will definitely be in the future." If the quantitative easing policy continues, the money printing machine will continue to print money, how can gold not go up! Not only will it go up, but it will go up!"

"Ahem, how much do you think you will break through in the end?"

Hearing this, Cruz couldn't help interjecting.

"..."

Lu Fei and John Paulson looked at him with smiles.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just out of curiosity."

Cruz lacked confidence and dared not look directly.

"As far as the current global economic recession is concerned, I think gold will usher in a period of strength that is rare in ten years, and it will last at least until 11 years. If the current upward trend is followed, it may double."

Lu Fei said: "It has risen to $1900 an ounce."

"Oh my God."

As soon as this remark came out, Cruz was stunned for a moment.

"Of course, I'm just making an estimate."

Lu Fei suddenly reminded, "You have caught a fish."

"what!"

As if waking up from a dream, Cruz stirred the reel, but it was too late, the fish was unhooked, and then lost his way:
"The stock market is risky, and the futures market is even more dangerous."

"Haha, you're right."

John Paulson said with a smile: "But if you follow Lu, you don't have to worry about anything. Some time ago we shorted Nokia and made $1000 million. It's really a good time."

"It was too late for you to invest at that time, and it only increased by a few percent. It could have doubled. Of course, there is still time to continue shorting, and Nokia's stock will continue to fall."

Lu Fei seemed to mention it casually.

Cruz couldn't help being moved, and I also think Nokia's stock price will fall!Sure enough, the same stock gods see the same thing!

"If you want stability, invest in Penguin. Our company's stock will definitely rise, but we must also pay attention to diversification of investments, such as Motorola." The corner of Lu Fei's mouth rose slightly.

"Haha, Lu, you really deserve to be a trustworthy good friend." John Paulson winked at Cruz, "He's just like that, he's never stingy with his friends."

I can talk too!
I also want to make friends with Master Lu!

Cruz's eyes are hot, but his heart is even hotter, and he can do whatever he wants!
"I like to make friends, but I only make friends worth making." Lu Fei saw that the heat was almost ready, and suddenly said, "Our case with Nokia will be hard for you."

"Ah, no problem!"

Cruz immediately understood, go through fire and water, Mr. Lu!

"You also know that we have similar disputes with Apple and Nokia." Lu Fei asked, "I want to know what will happen to the logic case? Doesn't this violate the principle?"

in principle?

Cruz immediately said, "Who is following the other? Don't talk about principles between friends, only friendship. Talking about principles will hurt feelings."

Looking far and wide, it seems that Apple is not the same as logic. Logic is protected by patents such as Nortel Networks. Even if it makes a mistake, it is not a big mistake, but Apple is not so optimistic.

"Apple will be investigated, right?"

Lu Fei couldn't help showing a gloating smile.

Cruz is also a good person. He guessed that he wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, "It is very likely that as for the logic, it has not yet reached the point of filing an investigation. You can sit down and talk about it. Our Unfair Import Investigation Office will definitely With an objective and fair standpoint, try our best to mediate and strive for fairness!"

"But the problem now is that Nokia is blackmailing, and the patent licensing fee they are asking for is very unreasonable and unfair. I don't think there is any result even if we sit down and negotiate, otherwise we will not meet in court."

There was a trace of anger in Lu Fei's tone.

"Indeed, I also think that Nokia is a little too much, 4.2 million US dollars in patent fees, why don't you round it up and wipe it off?"

When Cruz moved his mouth, he was cut 3.8 million dollars.

"How long will it take?"

Lu Fei threw bait to make a nest again.

Cruz patted his chest and assured that Nokia was already eager to mediate and get the money, and was unwilling to fall into a protracted battle. When the time comes, everyone will take a step back, and it may be completely resolved in ten days and a half months.

"Don't worry, it doesn't matter if you fight for two or three years."

Lu Fei waved his hand.

Cruz was stunned, coauthoring you want to fight a protracted war!
"What I want to know is how long can I play the longest?"

Lu Fei and John Paulson looked at each other.

"This depends on the committee's initiative to act as the judge, who will set the timetable, but in any case, it will take three years from filing the case to investigation, then to evidence collection, then hearing, and final ruling. It can be four years, of course. years, or five years."

Cruz lifted his chin.

Pursuant to Section 1930 of the Tariff Act of 337, the Office of Unfair Import Investigations is required to complete a Section 337 investigation and issue a determination "as soon as practicable."

But in practice, investigations are generally concluded within 12 to 15 months, and complex cases may extend to 18 months.

Note, this is just a survey!

Cases like Logic and Nokia must be treated with caution, no less than a year and a half!
"Then go ahead and fight for as long as you can."

"Lu, can I ask you why?"

"Of course it's for the sake of logic, but it's not just for logic, it's also for your own good, and for the good of your subordinates."

The corner of Lu Fei's mouth curled up. Nokia wants to win. Besides lawyers, it is absolutely necessary to honor you through lobbying companies.

There are also three shifts of yamen servants!
Don't you have to get some scattered silver flowers?

"!!!"

Cruz's fearful eyes were mixed with admiration.

No wonder you are the world’s richest people!

Black, my heart is so black!
But I like to make friends like you!

"Then I just have one last question."

Lu Fei smiled, I have 4000 million US dollars, but I want to delay the time, and I don't want to give the money to Nokia, what should I do?

Cruz is quite proficient in business. When asked about logic, he also authorized a lot of patents to Nokia, and immediately came up with a solution——

With his way, he will also be used to his body!
Since Nokia raised the price after the contract expired, it simply delayed the logic. When the contract expired, the patent licensing fee also increased.

Cancel each other out, and it's over!
"Haha, it really is a good idea, can it work?"

Lu Fei narrowed his eyes into a slit, what a talent!

"Unless Lucian disagrees, our final ruling will always be valid, and I have the right to interpret the law."

Cruz smiled.

"That must be fair, just, objective and meticulous. As a friend, I absolutely believe that you will be impartial and uphold justice!"

Lu Fei showed a satisfied smile.

It really deserves to be the person introduced by Mundell, the person is really accurate!

"Of course, our Office of Unfair Import Investigations specializes in dealing with unfairness!"

Cruz was thrilled to hear about "friends."

"I'm busy with work, and I need to rest when I should. Our fishing friends come out to fish together occasionally." Lu Fei smiled.

This office is small, but it matters!

Now it is Nokia, and it may be Samsung and Apple in the future. In short, there is no problem with the insurance.

"sure."

Cruz's face was flushed, and his whole body floated up.

"Oops, the fish bit the hook."

Lu Fei competed with the fish and caught it: "Hey, it's still a big fish."

The three fished until dusk before returning to the shore.

Although Cruz returned empty-handed and did not receive $1000, he gained a lot of valuable investment advice.

The key harvest is the friendship of these two friends, Master Lu and John Paulson.

Which cadre can stand such a test! (end of this chapter)
