Coquettish Rebirth

The lawyer's letter sent by Huaxia Hi-Tech to Apple shocked Apple at the time!When Jobs saw such a lawyer's letter, his complexion changed so quickly!Originally, at the beginning, he still had a complacent smile on his face, very confident.But after reading the specific content of such a lawyer's letter, Jobs' face suddenly changed, from the previous self-confidence and complacency to disbelief!His face turned blue all of a sudden, and finally turned red all of a sudden!The veins on this old Joe's forehead popped up at this time, he was beyond angry!He must be furious, he couldn't believe what he saw!This Huaxia Hi-Tech actually said that in addition to the patent on the touch screen hardware, it is also their patent on the software to operate the phone with your fingers?

What made Jobs even more angry and desperate was that the company's legal staff went to the Patent Office to check the patent numbers written in such a lawyer's letter, and it turned out that these patents were really owned by Huaxia Hi-Tech!This made Jobs feel unacceptable!How could it be possible that these things are all patents owned by Huaxia Hi-Tech?If these patents are really owned by Huaxia Hi-Tech, what kind of mobile phone does Apple still make?The way forward has been blocked by Huaxia Hi-Tech!That's right, it's a bit like the development of ordinary mobile phones, which absolutely cannot avoid the patents of manufacturers such as Nokia, and the development of so-called large-screen touch smart phones, and now it seems that Huaxia Hi-Tech cannot be avoided at all!Oh shit!Originally, Jobs thought that after Sony exchanged patents with Huaxia Hi-Tech, that would have cleared the way forward.It is already possible for Apple to freely develop in such a domain? Ten thousand? Books? Right? .nsb.om domain!After all, this is not developing products in a fully mature industry, developing products in a fully mature industry.That may be due to various considerations of not wanting to pay.Only then will they find ways to bypass patents, and in the end only pay part of the basic patents that cannot be bypassed.In such a field of touch-screen smartphone development, the most important thing is not to bypass patents, but time!The sooner it is developed, the sooner it will be announced.Be more active!If you find a group of people to search for various patents at such a time.Even if such a group of people moves fast enough.But it will also delay the node of software research and development!If you don't want to abolish all the codes and rewrite half of the development, you must retrieve all relevant patents before development!Jobs also knew that there are very few start-up companies in the United States that continuously apply for patents during the product development process.This kind of thing that applies for patents while developing is basically the "patent" of the giants!This is because small and medium-sized companies put efficiency first, and focus on human and intellectual resources to make products first. There are not so many idlers who can cooperate with lawyers to apply for patents.These things are really not something that any company can do. How many more people will be hired?How much does this cost?You must know that applying for a patent is not free, and maintaining a patent is not free either!You have to pay for it every year!Take the United States as an example, if you apply for a patent, it costs 2 U.S. dollars, and if you apply for 200 patents a year, it will be 2000 million U.S. dollars. What if you apply for 3 patents a year?That's $1000 million going out!Then there is the cost of patent maintenance. In the United States, an acquired patent needs 1 US dollars to maintain for about [-] years. The US dollars to apply for a patent are [-] million US dollars!Then after the first year in ten years, you will have to pay millions of dollars to maintain the patent for three years!

The patent application in the first year will cost millions of dollars to maintain for ten years, the patent application in the second year will also cost millions of dollars, and the patent in the third year will be 60 dollars. This is a lot of money!So from this point of view, we know that for a company with insufficient strength, applying for and maintaining patents is really too much and too much expenditure. With such expenditure, they really might as well spend it on product development!At least it is used to develop products, and there will be more income, right?If you want a lot of money, you need to increase income and reduce expenditure. It is not good to live by reducing expenditure alone. The key is to increase income!Relatively speaking, at such a time in Apple's history, the financial situation is quite good, but in such a time and space, because of the existence of Jia Hongjian, the life of such an Apple company is far worse than in history. !

Apple in history held ipds in its hands and made billions of dollars in the world.But what about in this time and space?Apple doesn't have that much money!Their ipds came out several years later than Music Pods, and the market has almost been grabbed by Music Pods. They were only able to grab a little corner of the market in the United States that Huaxia Hi-Tech didn't want.In such a situation, Apple's cash flow is not that impressive!They don't use their limited strength in the most critical research and development areas, but use it in other places. Isn't this cerebral palsy?Although Jobs seemed to have foreseen that he might be stuck in the future, he really didn't expect that Huaxia Hi-Tech would actually do the same thing as various giants, and apply for patents while developing!

Because he originally thought that this Huaxia Hi-Tech might be similar to their Apple. Although Huaxia Hi-Tech has more money, such a company...has no foundation for mobile phones. They have developed such a thing and there are so many engineers who know it directly. Is it suitable to apply for a patent?Therefore, Huaxia Hi-Tech may have applied for several patents, but these patents are not expected to form a patent wall and cannot completely stop Jobs and Apple.So at that time, Jobs always thought that on the iphne, at most, they would be stuck by Nokia, Microsoft, and companies like Ericsson, and it would be fine to pay some money!But who would have thought that Huaxia Hi-Tech had built its own patent wall on this software!It is really possible to completely block such a road, how can this be fixed?

Huaxia Hi-Tech competes fiercely with Apple. At this moment, Jia Hongjian and the others want to fight the lawsuit to the end, so they don't give Apple a chance to issue an iPhone, or what?Or is it possible to allow the iphne to appear on the market, but have to pay Huaxia Hi-Tech?Such a feeling that the lifeblood is in the hands of others really made Jobs quite unhappy!But it's useless for him to be unhappy. Who made Huaxia Hi-Tech enter such a field and start research and development almost ten years earlier?Who made Jia Hongjian, as a reborn person, lay a solid foundation for Huaxia Hi-Tech early on?Who made Jia Hongjian prepare to deal with all kinds of competitors now ten years later?

In such a lawyer's letter from Huaxia Hi-Tech, it didn't say what they want, whether they want money or what they want to do. It just said that Apple's iphne infringed Huaxia Hi-Tech's patent, and Huaxia Hi-Tech asked Apple to stop the infringement immediately. , or see you in court.Such a statement really made Jobs feel agitated!He felt that the lifeblood of a product such as iphne was in the hands of Huaxia Hi-Tech, and now they can only live by watching Huaxia Hi-Tech's face!For Jobs, a man with a strong desire to control, how could this be tolerated?But now the situation is stronger than others. Jia Hongjian and the others are now in the upper hand. No matter whether Jobs likes it or not, they must smile at Jia Hongjian and look at Jia Hongjian's face!

Under such a situation, Jobs and the others hurriedly asked the lawyer to send a lawyer's letter to Huaxia Hi-Tech, asking what Huaxia Hi-Tech wanted to do, and then Jobs also stated in the lawyer's letter that if they had to pay the authorization fee, Apple I am very happy to cooperate with Huaxia Hi-Tech, and said that such a payment model is a good move for both parties, and it is a win-win situation!After such a lawyer's letter was sent to Huaxia Hi-Tech, there was no sound for two weeks!This Jia Hongjian just left the lawyer's letter aside, deliberately leaving Jobs and Apple alone.And Jobs and Apple are really like ants on a hot pot. They still think that no matter whether they are dead or alive, they should at least give an accurate statement!What kind of thing is this delaying?Even if the death penalty is to be imposed, can't we give it a refreshment?This will torture everyone to death!
