Text Chapter 1154 Georgina's Request

The core of this ointment prepared by Xiao Peng is not the big puddle of cow dung, but his body-strengthening medicinal bath medicinal materials, his medicinal bath materials have been studied by scientific research institutions in the whole country for so long and have not come up with a reason why he applied for a fart patent?

Georgina is the standard Western mode of thinking: "Xiao, this medicinal material still has to apply for a patent, otherwise it will be too troublesome to be controlled." You Chinese people just don't pay attention to intellectual property rights!"

After hearing this, Yang Meng became anxious: "What do you mean that we Huaxia people do not attach importance to intellectual property rights? Don't you see that Qualcomm and Apple have to come to Huaxia to sue for the property rights war? Who dares to say that our country does not protect intellectual property rights?"

Xiao Peng corrected him: "Dude, Qualcomm is suing Apple in six countries, even in China, Qualcomm has also filed lawsuits in the imperial capital, Qindao, Nanjing, Guangzhou and other cities, but Fuzhou has pronounced the verdict first." ”

Yang Meng was puzzled and asked: "What are they trying to do? The two companies from the Stars and Stripes came to Huaxia to fight an intellectual property lawsuit, what is this picture?" ”

Xiao Peng said succinctly: "Hooligans fight." Qualcomm, this old rascal, catches who bites whom. ”

Speaking of which, there is a company in the communications industry now, almost no one has ever seen its products, but almost everyone wants to give it a shallow appearance, and it is definitely the most hated company in the communications industry. Almost all companies hate him and grit his teeth, and three hundred and sixty-five days a year, this company does one thing: a lawsuit.

Either to say goodbye to others, or to be sued by others, is definitely a hooligan among hooligans. That company is Qualcomm. It has been jokingly called the only tech company in the world with more lawyers than engineers.

Qualcomm makes money very simply, one is to sell mobile phone chips, and the other is to license patents. For example, if those mobile phone manufacturers use Qualcomm chips, they not only have to pay for the chips, but also have to pay patent fees; and if equipment manufacturers use Qualcomm's patents when building base stations, they also have to pay patent fees; mobile phone operators have to purchase customized machines from mobile phone manufacturers on the one hand, and on the other hand, they also need to purchase equipment produced by equipment manufacturers, which is equivalent to indirectly paying two patent license fees.

Qualcomm has 130,000 patents in the field of communications, including chips, mobile communications and other necessary technologies. Because of these patented technologies, every smartphone manufacturer now has to pay Qualcomm, and 5% of the price of each 4G smartphone must be handed over to Qualcomm as a patent fee.

Of course, what he did naturally also caused a lot of trouble, which was a serious suspicion of monopoly and attracted many fines: Huaxia once fined him 6.088 billion, plastic surgery country also fined it 853 million US dollars, and the European Union fined it 1.229 billion yuan, all for its abuse of its dominant market position.

Because the Snapdragon chip has choked the throats of too many people, many large mobile phone manufacturers are looking for their own solutions. For example, Apple has been using Intel baseband chips since IP7, and IP8 is also using Qualcomm and Intel chips, and when it comes to models such as IPXS and IPXR, Qualcomm's baseband chips have been completely abandoned. And Huawei, Samsung and other companies are doing the same。。。。。。

This also led to a significant decline in Qualcomm's performance, so Qualcomm launched 50 patent lawsuits against Apple in six countries around the world. But they seem to be more inclined to use lawsuits to force Apple to comply.

Just last month, Qualcomm CEO also told the media that he believed that Apple and Qualcomm would eventually reconcile, but they did not expect that when they had not yet negotiated a settlement or not, Huaxia had already made a judgment: several Apple mobile phones have been banned in Huaxia.

And Huaxia did this for a big reason, which is to prepare for the future.

In the 1G era, the stars and stripes were dominant; in the 2G era, it was a European monopoly; in the 3G era, it was completely different, several 3G mobile phone standards in the world were all related to CDMA, and Qualcomm made a fortune by relying on CDMA technology, and mastered countless core patents, so it made a lot of money and became the industry leader, and then increased technology investment and monopolized the 4G industry.

Originally, all this was like this, but suddenly there was a '-stirring stick', that is, Huaxia. Although Huaxia is not ahead of Western countries in the field of scientific research such as communication technology and semiconductor materials, Huaxia is undoubtedly at the forefront of the world in the application of 5G technology. If Huaxia develops 5G like this, today's Qualcomm will be tomorrow's Huawei. Today, Huaxia attaches great importance to property rights disputes, in order to prepare Huawei for the same problems in the future.

Now Western countries are fighting hard to limit China's 5G standards. The 'Five Eyes Alliance', which was established during World War II, stood up for the first time to contain China, but after all, 5G is the world's development trend, and their technology is too backward, so they can only think of some bad moves, such as controlling Huawei's CFO------, etc.

(PS, tips: The Five Eyes Alliance, an intelligence cooperation structure established during World War II, was first established by the Stars and Stripes and the United Kingdom, and then expanded to the Maple Leaf Country, the Kangaroo Country and the New Lanci, and now it has been secretly or openly conducting global surveillance for more than 70 years, the Eagle State is spying on Europe and the western side of the Bear Country, the Middle East and Hong Kong Island; the Star and Stripes Country is monitoring Africa, the Caribbean, China, the Bear Country and the Middle East; the Kangaroo Country is responsible for South Asia and East Asia; the New Lancy is responsible for the South Pacific and Southeast Asia; the Maple Leaf Country is responsible for the Bear Country, China and parts of Latin America. It was not until 1973 that the prime minister of Kangaroo knew for the first time that the country was a member of the alliance, and in 2010, the Eagle State and the Stars and Stripes officially recognized the intelligence cooperation alliance. The Five Eyes countries occupy a huge share of the world's basic scientific research, and 43 of the world's top 50 universities belong to the Five Eyes countries, so it is natural to see Huaxia's leading position in 5G. οΌ‰

Yang Meng asked curiously: "Then those mobile phones are banned now?"

Xiao Peng nodded: "Yes, but don't delay you in buying an Apple mobile phone, you must know that judgment and enforcement are two different things, you just look at those old cheaters, the court has also decided, but people just don't pay back the money, what can you do? You can only apply for enforcement! This is also the case, Qualcomm does not apply for enforcement, Apple should be sold or sold, and Qualcomm is unlikely to apply for enforcement, after all, it still wants to reconcile with Apple." Besides, even if it is really banned, the apples that should be bought will still be bought. You have to think about who the customers of the iPhone are, right?"

Yang Meng was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xiao Peng explained: "You go to the nightclub to see, those little Taiwanese girls, nine out of ten use Apple, our country has a third-party data service agency MobDate, they did a market research and found a very interesting thing." ”

"What's interesting?" Yang Meng asked curiously.

Xiao Peng gave the answer: "According to their survey, first of all, female users of Apple mobile phones are much higher than male users, and they are the most popular among students, no houses and no cars, unmarried users with low education, and monthly income of less than 3,000, and they are the main consumers of Apple mobile phones." In the most direct words: young women and students love Apple, married women and women with higher incomes love OPPO and VIVO, low-income men love Xiaomi more, and high-income men love Huawei and Xiaomi far more than Apple. It's not that the higher the income, the more expensive the phone is. ”

Georgina was also curious: "What is this for?"

Xiao Peng smiled: "It's not that having money means that it is wasted, because of high income, so it is more rational, they will consider performance, practicality and other issues when choosing a mobile phone, their life is good enough, and they will not feel faceless with any mobile phone------ the most expensive Apple can't catch up with their own car is worth it, isn't it? So many people say that Apple is just a tool for the poor to show off their wealth in many cases. ”

Georgina interrupted Xiao Peng's words: "Xiao, it's not right for you to say that. ”

Xiao Peng looked at Georgina puzzled.

Georgina walked back to the bedroom and took out a delicate small handbag from it, Xiao Peng knew this bag, it was Lana Marx's 'Cleopatra' handbag, this bag is handmade in crocodile leather, inlaid with 1,500 small diamonds, it is a limited edition in a limited edition, Lana Marcus company only allows one star to walk the red carpet with this bag every year. To be able to buy this bag, you must not only have money, but also have a high enough status.

Georgina took out a mobile phone from her bag, it was the latest Apple XS MAX, but it was not the same as the Apple XS MAX seen on the market, the golden shell was inlaid with diamonds, and the HOME button was a huge pink diamond, surrounded by a circle of small diamonds, which looked very dazzling.

Georgina said triumphantly: "This is a special model that I specially asked the famous designer Stuart Hughes to make for me, it must be more expensive than a car, right?"

Xiao Peng looked disgusted: "It's worth it if you put some diamonds?"

Georgina suddenly seemed to remember something: "Yes, I just remembered that your craftsmanship is first-class! Xiao, can you do me a favor?"

"What?" Xiao Peng looked at Georgina.

Georgina took out another mobile phone from her bag: "Can you help me decorate this phone?"

"HUAWEI MATE20 PRO?" Xiao Peng recognized Georgina's phone.

"Yes, this phone is so good that it is not sold in the Stars and Stripes, and many of my friends have to go to Mexico to buy this phone. Yang and I went shopping that day, and we bought a lot of them to give them away. Now in the Stars and Stripes, this phone is more face-saving than Apple!" Georgina said.

Xiao Pengle said: "I have such a vision for you, I'll help you with this matter!"
