Rebirth of England.

Chapter 688 Patent Litigation
Saddam's visit to the United States was very full, so he was able to squeeze out some time to meet Barron...

So after the two finally reached a tacit understanding, he and his wife Bruni said goodbye to Barron and left the manor.

Of course, Barron also noticed that there was a lot of meaning in the look Bruni gave him when she was leaving.

This woman is so brave, doing this in front of her husband.

Barron didn't come here for fun this time. Although he was with Beatrice, he had many other things to do.

The next day, he left New York for Silicon Valley.

As for Beatrice, Barron left the girl in New York because he was going to meet Ivanta.

Anyway, she wouldn't be bored when she was in New York - Beatrice had a good female classmate who was from New York and would entertain her.

The classmate who could play with Beatrice must have a complicated family background.

And when he left, Barron also left a bodyguard for Beatrice - although Barron didn't like going to nightclubs, he knew that girls of Beatrice's age still liked the hustle and bustle, but this was New York after all, so the necessary protection was still necessary.

After arriving in Silicon Valley, Barron arrived at his and Ivanta's "love nest", which was the villa where they had lived before.

And Ivanta was already waiting here in advance.

"Why, so happy?"

"Of course, because I missed you, honey."

Seeing Ivanta with a sweet smile on her face and throwing herself into his arms after they met, Barron knew that this was probably related to the news of his previous divorce.

Although Barron made it clear to other women, including Ivanta, at that time that he would not enter into marriage again.

But at least after Barron's divorce, they, including Ivanta, were able to step out into the sun.

Because Barron is single again, even if she was photographed with him, it can only be considered a normal relationship.

As for Barron’s relationship, there are a few…

He could only say, is it my fault?
In fact, IC Capital's investments over the years have been very impressive, and can be considered outstanding among American investment companies.

Currently, the only shortcoming of this company is that it is too "new" and does not have a huge network of relationships like companies like Sequoia Capital or even Goldman Sachs.

Therefore, last year, IC Capital participated in the financing of Goldman Sachs Group and became a major shareholder of Goldman Sachs. With the help of Goldman Sachs' relationship, IC Capital was able to have more extensive connections in the upper class of America.

The most important role of IC Capital for Barron is to use it to invest in some industries that are "restricted" in the United States.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that DS Holdings (Cavendish Trust) now holds a controlling stake in Woaw, the company can still develop well.

But if DS Group still directly holds a majority stake in YouTube or even Twitter in the future, try again...

Now he can use Ivanta, who is a native Anglo-American, and IC Capital, to invest in companies including Twitter. In addition, it seems that America is an open market, and even foreigners can freely buy stocks of listed companies through their stock market.

But in fact, you are allowed to buy stocks of Microsoft, Google, and even Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, but if you buy their energy and military stocks... I'm afraid the FBI will come to your door soon to ask you what your intentions are.

Of course, Barron will not directly purchase American energy and military companies - even if he wants to, it would be difficult to achieve his goal - but through "disguises" such as IC Capital, he can still invest in some companies that may face strict scrutiny from relevant American agencies.

As the saying goes, a short separation is better than a new marriage. After Barron met Ivanta, he naturally started to learn knowledge first under her initiative...

Fortunately, Beatrice's fighting ability was not strong in New York, so Barron still had some strength left.

Ivanta is completely different from Beatrice, which can be seen from her figure and body shape. Ivanta's figure is more mature, like a peach, and she has been exercising all the time. In terms of physical strength, she is much better than Beatrice.

If Barron had not been gifted, he would have given up the fight in less than two rounds against Ivanta after studying with Beatrice every day in New York.

But now, Barron was able to support and learn from Ivanta in the process of learning knowledge, and they kept on learning until after dark, when they were about to finish this long period of learning...

Well, if we rank the "learning abilities" of the women Barron has now, Ivanta would be at the top.

"Android bought the GOS-enabled phones from Samsung and Motorola as soon as possible and conducted research on them..."

Ivanta lazily nestled in Barron's arms and talked to him about the mobile phone operating system.

At the beginning of this year, Google launched their GOS system at a press conference, but smartphones equipped with this system were not available for sale until June.

The first batch of GOS phones included two brands, Samsung and Motorola, and Android companies naturally began to study competitors' products as soon as possible.

"In terms of operation, the GOS system has similarities with the Android system and the iOS system, but there are also some differences. It seems that Google has put a lot of thought into bypassing the patent barriers of Android and Apple. However, there are still several places in the GOS system that are suspected of touching our related patents..."

“What is Android going to do?”

"Google is very smart. The areas where they are suspected of infringing patents are not easy to identify. If they were to file a lawsuit, they could afford it with their financial resources. On the contrary, it would increase the popularity of the GOS system..."

Ivanta said unhappily:

"But we can't just sit there and do nothing about this kind of thing. We are going to sue them first."

This kind of thing is normal for such technology companies. After all, if the lawyer fees are enough to cover the time saved and bring benefits, the other party will be very happy to respond to the lawsuit.

"We expected this to happen, didn't we?"

"Yes, Apple is also preparing a strategy similar to ours and filing a lawsuit against Google..."

Ivanta said:
"But the good news is that GOS phones are not yet big enough to pose a threat to us in terms of sales."
