Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

The Importance of Chapter 638 Patents

The sales of mobile phones are even hotter than Wang Weidong expected.

In just two days, [-] mobile phones were sold out, and some customers who came late and failed to grab them called the sales department of Lanhua Automobile Factory to ask when the next batch of mobile phones would be released.

This made Wang Weidong have to lament that there are still rich people in this era.

But thinking about it, the capital is one of the largest cities in the country, the wages are far higher than other regions, and the number of senior workers, professors and scholars is countless.

Take the seventh-level workers as an example, they can get a salary of nearly 85 yuan a month.

There is no need to buy a house in this day and age, even if expenses are removed, nearly 500 yuan can be saved every year.

The salaries of professors are even higher, and they can get more than 100 yuan a month.

500 yuan is nothing to them.

The [-] mobile phones distributed to the telephone company were also snapped up by various agencies. Director Zhang of the telephone company went to the Lanhua Automobile Factory in person and asked the Lanhua Automobile Factory to put the production plan of the second batch of mobile phones on schedule.

Although the telephone company did not get any money from the sales of mobile phones, Director Zhang was still delighted to see the increasing telephone bills every day.

If the number of mobile phones in Beijing can increase to [-] by the end of the year, their telephone bureau will have a good year.

Wang Weidong handed over the production task to Zhang Zhang, who was in charge of daily work, and then devoted himself to the new work.

The large conference room of the laboratory of the Lanhua Automobile Factory.

Realizing that a new project might be launched, Fang Mu and a team of researchers came to the meeting room early in the morning.

It's just that as soon as they entered the door, they realized that something was wrong. In the meeting room, there were still a few strangers sitting.

They all wore gray tunic suits, their hair was carefully combed, and some of them wore glass bottles and glasses, making them look like pedants.

"What's going on here? Isn't it going to announce a new project?"

"I don't know, depending on the situation, there are no new projects for the time being."

The researchers talked a lot, and Fang Mu's brows were frowned.

He hasn't done a new project for a long time
At this moment, Wang Weidong opened the door and walked in.

He held a stack of materials in his hand.

Looking around with sharp eyes, Wang Weidong said with a smile: "Everyone, we have called here today to complete a major event, and that is to apply for a patent for mobile phones."

As a time traveler, Wang Weidong is aware of the importance of patents. There are countless domestic mobile phone manufacturers in the future. They need to pay a large amount of patent fees to domestic research institutions or other mobile phone brands every year, because the other party is the first to go in the process of researching mobile phones. One step ahead, the first to apply for a patent.

Patents can protect the interests of innovators and allow people to get material rewards for their research and innovation. Wang Weidong has no objection to this.

But some patents are just ridiculous.

Just like, the first person to drink water with a straw can apply for a patent for this operation.

In the future, anyone who uses a straw to drink will have to pay a patent fee.

And in the field of mobile phones, the same is true.

Those manufacturers who were the first to research mobile phones registered a large number of basic patents. No mobile phone manufacturer can avoid those patents and can only obediently pay the other party.

It can be said that later generations of domestic mobile phone manufacturers seem to have the largest consumer market in the world and make a lot of money. In fact, most of the profits are used to pay patent fees.

From this point of view, patents have virtually prevented the development of technology.

of course.

As a pioneer, Wang Weidong raised his hand to welcome the patent system.

He has decided to register all patents on mobile phones worldwide.

After the introduction, Lanhua Automobile Factory can lie down and collect money.

However, in this era, the domestic patent system is not perfect, and there is also a lack of relevant talents.

It took Wang Weidong a lot of effort to invite these professors and scholars of law.

When they heard about the patent application, the researchers represented by Fang Mu suddenly lost interest.

Fang Mu raised his hand: "Director, patents are indeed very important, but it is enough to have those legal professionals. We still have to spend precious time on research."

"I can understand your eagerness to start a new project, but patents are more important than you think."

Wang Weidong explained in a slow voice: "If the results we have spent so much energy on research are easily plagiarized by others, or even the plagiarists are still blatantly applying for patents internationally to restrict our production and sales, then we will lose more than we gain. .”

Wang Weidong is not alarmist.

Due to the weak concept of patents in the Mainland, many factories have never thought about registering their technologies as patents.

After the spring breeze came, some foreign companies sent people to the mainland to obtain domestic technologies by various means, and then registered patents abroad.

When domestic factories developed and wanted to enter the international market, I realized that I had to pay patent money for my own technology.

"Also, applying for a patent requires professional knowledge and requires the cooperation of you researchers. Don't worry, everyone, the new project has already taken shape, and I will announce it to the public after the patent application is completed."

Facing a group of scientific research madmen, Wang Weidong had to draw a big pie.

After eating the sweet pancakes, Fang Mu nodded in satisfaction.

Wang Weidong then introduced those law professors to Fang Mu.

"Professor Zhou, Professor Wang, and Professor Liu, I will trouble you this time."

"You're welcome. This is what we should do. The Lanhua Automobile Factory is our pride. We cannot tolerate those robbers stealing things that belong to the Lanhua Automobile Factory."

After chatting a few words, Wang Weidong drove back to the courtyard in the car.

Guan Tingting is a considerate woman.

Every time he completes a major project, Wang Weidong will go back to the small courtyard to rest for a few days, which is a habit he has developed for a long time.

Guan Tingting was watering the flowers in the small courtyard. When she heard the sound of a car, she knew that Wang Weidong was back, so she quickly put down the water bottle and ran back.

Since the two are cousins ​​to the outside world, Guan Tingting could only suppress her excitement when she saw someone passing by on the side of the road.

She bit her red lips lightly, and said with a smile, "Brother Hong Chang, you are back."

"Yeah, the mobile phone project is almost complete, and it can be handed over to the professionals in the factory."

"Really? I saw you selling mobile phones on TV. Don't say it, it really looks like that!" Guan Tingting used to be a reporter and is now a graduate student majoring in media. She is no stranger to Wang Weidong's methods.It's just that she didn't think it was necessary. After all, it was a national TV station, and as long as she showed her face on it, she could become a celebrity.

No, several passers-by had already stopped in their tracks, fixed their eyes on Wang Weidong, and whispered in their mouths.

"Do you think that person is Liu Hongchang on the TV, or the one who researched Hongchang's mobile phone?"

"Hey, don't tell me they look alike, they all have one nose, one mouth, and one pair of eyes."

"...Look at that car again."

"Good guy, and the car, it must be him, that's right."

"Should we go up and ask him if the mobile phone can be cheaper, that thing is really interesting, but it's too expensive."

"What are you thinking! I've heard that on the first day of the sale, they were all sold out. If you still want to be cheap, why don't you go to heaven!"

"."

Realizing that he had become the focus of passers-by, Wang Weidong took out a woven bag from the trunk and said with a smile, "Come on, let's go inside."

"Mmmmm~"

Entering the house, Wang Weidong opened the woven bag and took out a piece of bright red beef from it.

"I'm happy today, you make this into a dish, let's have a good drink."

"It's about ten catties!" Seeing the beef, Guan Tingting's eyes widened.

In this era, although the beef in the capital is not as fat and expensive, and does not require meat tickets, but the quantity is very small, and every time it appears on the market, it is snatched up.

Guan Tingting once went to the Chaoyang Vegetable Market to buy beef at five o'clock in the morning, but she found nothing.

Guan Tingting grew up in Ningzhou. She liked to drink beef soup since she was a child. After coming to the capital, she had to give up this hobby.

"Well, the logistics department of our automobile factory specially purchased it from Ningzhou. From now on, the leaders of each factory will distribute [-] catties of beef every month. I know you like it, so I brought it here for you."

Hearing this, Guan Tingting felt warm in her heart, and her little face blushed immediately.

"Okay, okay, let's cook together."

Wang Weidong gave a light hug, and took Guan Tingting's hand into the kitchen.

There is happiness in the air.

In this world, people's sorrows and joys are not connected, some people are happy, while others are sad.

For example, Qin Huairu from the Jia family was walking up and down the room in melancholy at this moment.

And next to him, the stick with gauze wrapped around his face looked unlovable.

The last time Banggen was injured by the gangster Pan Ge's men, he was sent to the hospital. Although Qin Huairu borrowed medical expenses from Yan Bugui, in order to save money, he let Banggen leave the hospital early.

Anyway, there is no serious problem, and it is the same to change the dressing at home.

At this time, Bang Geng didn't bother to blame Qin Huairu for this, because he had more important things to worry about.

Just yesterday, Pan Ge sent people to the courtyard to tell Banggen that although he had been beaten, he still hadn't paid off the debt. If he left the courtyard in the future, they would attack him again.

Although it is safe in the courtyard because of Wang Weidong, the stick can't hide in the courtyard for the rest of his life.

He still needs to work, live, and talk to someone.

Thinking of the person to talk to, Bang Geng thought of Huang Yanling. I hadn't seen Huang Yanling for several months, and I really missed Huang Yanling very much.

"Mother, think of a way, if this continues, I will be driven crazy by them."

Seeing BangGong's sad face, Qin Huairu felt distressed for a while, but there was nothing she could do at this moment.

"Panger, I've inquired about him, and he's always said what he says, and he's ruthless. Those recalcitrants are afraid of offending him."

Qin Huairu also wanted to ask someone to make peace, but when she just said Pan Ge's name, the stubborn master who had just patted his chest to ensure that there was no problem, ran away in fright.

"Then let's return the money to him. It was originally 200 yuan, but the man said that I was beaten up, and it can be worth ten yuan. We only need to return them 190 yuan." expectations.

"190 yuan, where does my mother have so much money? You know, my mother only earns that little salary every month."

Qin Huairu seemed to have thought of something while talking, and turned her head and stared at Bang Geng: "Bang Geng, why don't you let them beat you a few more times, if you get beaten more than a dozen times, we won't pay back Pange's money .”

Hearing this, Stickgun's face darkened.

That one time almost killed him, and if he was beaten a few more times, he would definitely die.

"Mother, how about you borrow some from the people in the compound."

"Hey, if it was in the past, maybe my mother would really be able to borrow it for you." Qin Huairu said with a long sigh: "But, you also know that now Sha Zhu has become Yi Zhonghai's own son, and Yi Zhonghai takes him very seriously. It's tight, I have no chance to contact Shazhu at all. Yi Zhonghai will definitely not be able to borrow money. Liu Hongchang's little bastard does have money, but he won't lend it to us. The other residents are living on wages. My family will have 190 yuan, even if I have it, I will not lend it to our family."

Wasn't it because you never paid back money when you borrowed money? You suddenly raised your head and said excitedly: "Mother, didn't Yan Bugui lend money to our family last time? You can ask him to borrow money again this time! "

"That's right, why did I forget Yan Bugui!"

Qin Huairu slapped her hands suddenly.

Yan Bugui looked inconspicuous, always showing off as a stingy man, but Qin Huairu knew that this old man had saved a lot of money.

Now Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, and Yan Jiedi are all at work, and they have to pay Yan Pugui's living expenses and rent every month.

Otherwise, Yan Pugui would not be able to afford radios and televisions.

This is a hidden rich man!
As for whether he could borrow money from Yan Bugui, Qin Huairu was not worried.

In the hospital, she can borrow medical expenses, so she can also borrow this time.

This is Qin Huairu's unique self-confidence.

After Qin Huairu made up her mind, she changed into a clean dress, checked herself in the mirror, and came to Yan's house writhing her buttocks.

Yan Bugui was making fish soup for Huang Xiaocui in the kitchen.

Looking at the small crucian carp in the stainless steel pot, Yan Bugui felt very distressed. These fish can be sold at the pigeon market for at least [-] cents.

But he can't help it. The doctor in the Sixth Hospital said that Huang Xiaocui's body is weak, and if she doesn't take supplements every day, she may give birth prematurely.

The child in Huang Xiaocui's womb is the eldest son and grandson of the Yan family. Before liberation, he would be the real heir.

Even if Yan Bugui felt distressed, there was nothing he could do.

As for Xu Damao's claim that Huang Xiaocui's child might not be Yan Jiecheng's, Yan Bugui also investigated it later, and there was no trace of it at all.

The doctor said that the child in Huang Xiaocui's stomach was born by Yan Jiecheng according to the date.

Can the doctor's words be false?

"It must be that Xu Damao couldn't have a baby and was jealous of our Yan family."

Yan Bugui muttered softly, took the fish soup out of the stainless steel pot, put it into a porcelain bowl, and prepared to serve it to Huang Xiaocui.
