The next day, Lu Fei got up early and came to Hailong Building, specially calling Long Yu, the CHO and legal director.
This woman is not only a good person in personnel matters, but also serves as the global chief legal counsel of UTStarcom.
When asked about how to deal with Samsung’s plagiarism, I subconsciously thought I had heard wrong——
Samsung would actually sacrifice its dignity and not let Bilian do this?
Lu Fei had a sullen face and waved his hand, "Bangzi Semiconductor started out by stealing the master's books. It's not surprising."
Long Yu answered truthfully: "Patents are territorial. If the situation is true and the materials are complete, you can apply for patent protection in China first. Based on the results achieved logically, Samsung's allegedly plagiarized MP3 should not be able to enter the country. The sales volume of lmusic1 is at least It won’t be affected too much…”
"What about overseas, like the United States?"
"It is very troublesome to initiate a lawsuit against Samsung. The key lies in the amount of compensation. The "Patent Law" and other relevant laws of the United States stipulate that compensation is generally based on the principle of compensation. For example, we must first determine the appearance of Samsung's plagiarism logic and make the logic How much money was lost.”
"Samsung copied me, but I can't set a price. How the hell does this make sense?"
"Yes, but judges rarely rule like this. What I'm most worried about is that if Samsung can sell a lot of products without plagiarizing the logic, then the focus of the lawsuit will become, 'Samsung can sell more by plagiarizing the logic. How many mp3s have been released, it’s too difficult to prove.”
"Does this mean this lawsuit will take a long time?"
Lu Fei crossed his arms, thoughtfully.
"Yes, the patent lawsuit will definitely become a protracted battle."
Long Yu shrugged and said: "Next step, Samsung will make small moves up and down Logic's supply chain, delaying and consuming at the same time, and even counter-suing lawsuits to force Logic to admit its mistakes. These are Samsung's usual tricks."
"Unless Mr. Lu, you have some countermeasures."
Huawei doesn’t have one, so how can it have logic?
Lu Fei thought about it and shook his head. There were very few counterattack cards in his hand, but then he thought about it. Samsung's first-generation Galaxy copied the iPhone, and even old gangsters like Apple couldn't deal with Samsung.
Logic is in its infancy, and Samsung is the ultimate form!
He thanked Long Yu and watched her leave the office. He knocked on the table in silence and called Sun Hongjun, who was far away in Bangzi.
"What does Samsung say? What is its attitude?"
"You just won't admit it."
Sun Hongjun laughed angrily and said that Samsung, which thought it had the lifeblood of logic, did not give in. Moreover, in the next contract, it also wanted to increase the price of chips.
"How much?" Lu Fei frowned.
"One-third, which is sixty or seventy yuan."
"Samsung thinks they can control us and let them slaughter us?" Lu Fei's face turned pale, "Who mentioned it!"
Sun Hongjun replied: "Lee Jae-yong, the current president of Samsung, Li Jianxi's only son, and future successor."
"I expected an attack, but I didn't expect it to be so soon."
Lu Fei smacked his lips. The current situation of domestic electronic products is undoubtedly that they lack cores and screens. But fortunately, they are not like mobile phones, they are just MP3 music players. Alternative suppliers can be found all over the world.
"Fortunately, that MP3 still has a black and white screen. Fortunately, we have a backup plan."
Sun Hongjun felt like he was surviving a disaster.
Memory chips and panels all have spare tire partners, and lithium batteries also belong to BYD. Otherwise, more than half of the entire supply chain is tied to Samsung, which is equivalent to being strangled and quarreled.
"Samsung's panel supply has been reduced from one supply to three supply, and LG and Sharp's purchasing volume has increased."
Lu Fei opened the safe and took out the preliminary prototype of lmusic2, medium cup, large cup and extra large cup.
The three color screens are made of different materials, each of which is a low-end STFT true color screen.
TFT and STed ic), which are currently the most popular and popular LCD screens, while the OLED screen industry is still in the development stage. Before this, no manufacturer has adopted it.
Logic, the first one to try again!
Moreover, Newark's multi-touch is based on OLED screens, creating Logic's first counterattack card.
"Mr. Lu, do you want to temporarily end cooperation with Samsung?"
Sun Hongjun's tone was filled with anger, and he was obviously irritated.
"Calm down! Samsung is just asking for it. Our priority supply agreement only has one more quarter."
Lu Fei vaguely saw through Samsung's motivation for provocation.
Once the agreement is broken, the monthly production capacity of NADA flash memory chips in the logic supply chain will be sharply reduced by 30,000 to 40,000 pieces. This vacancy will not be filled by Toshiba as the second supplier and Intel as the third supplier alone.
It's like stabbing yourself in the face and asking Samsung if you are afraid.
Sun Hongjun sneered: "Mr. Lu, you haven't seen their faces clearly. They are simply bandits, worse than bandits!"
"Be angry, but don't act on impulse. There are only so many semiconductors in the world. If you lower your head but don't raise your head, you can't move. If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. If he is unkind, I can't be unjust."
Lu Fei touched his neck. Is this what it feels like to be threatened by a stuck neck?
Sun Hongjun asked: "What should we do with the inspection team? Withdraw it?"
Lu Fei said: "What's Huawei's opinion?"
"Mr. Sun also feels that there is no need to stay any longer."
Sun Hongjun gritted his teeth on the phone, "Although we visited the most advanced 8-inch and 12-inch wafer fabs, Samsung moved out of the Wassenaar Agreement and was only willing to jointly jointly with us the 6-inch wafer fab."
Lu Fei licked his lips, "Hu Nonggui! The craftsmanship is two generations behind."
"What's even more outrageous is that it requires more than 10% of the equity of the wafer fab."
"This is globalization. The weak will prey on the strong. If we don't accept it, we must become stronger. If you are weak, you have no right to speak."
Lu Fei asked Sun Hongjun and others to change their route to Neon and visit Toshiba.
"It is necessary to advance the press conference one or two weeks in advance, to early to mid-July. The gimmick of the world's first color screen MP3 must be maintained in order to seize the competitive initiative and seize the commanding heights of the market."
Sun Hongjun agreed with the preemptive strike. lmusic2 carries the hope of logically knocking on the door of high-end products.
The two of them chatted for half an hour despite expensive long-distance calls, planning a new phone launch conference, negotiating the division of labor, and formulating strategies.
He put the receiver back on the phone, picked up a ballpoint pen, and drew a circle on the vertical calendar. The time was after the E3 game show.
I was spinning the pen in my hand, thinking about how to attack a wave of Samsung, when the QQ ringtone of the prelude to "Nocturne" suddenly came from the speaker, and the penguin in the lower right corner of the computer kept beating.
The news comes from Zeng Li.
In two concise and concise words, [thank you].
[No thanks, play well]
When replying, you should also cherish words like gold.
Zeng Li pursed her lips and typed out, "It's so stressful to play opposite Ge You and Liu Dehua." She suddenly realized that it was inappropriate and immediately deleted it.
I wrote it several times and deleted it several times. It took me a long time to send the invitation using QQ on my mobile phone——
[Are you free? I would like to treat you to a meal]
However, after a few minutes, the reply did not come.
Why doesn't he text me back? Something must be wrong!
Zeng Li calmed down, took out the tea cake, pinched off a small piece, and quietly boiled water to make tea.
"Sister Zeng Li, the water is boiling." Xiaoya reminded.
"Whoa whoa."
Zeng Li came back to her senses, and water vapor floated from the mouth of the pot, but the reply didn't come for a long time. She adjusted her mentality and resisted the urge to bombard her with text messages.
Wait, wait!
"Sister Zeng Li, the tea has been made for you." Xiaoya said.
Why haven't you come yet?
Zeng Li was sometimes impatient and sometimes frustrated. Her fingers were hanging on the keys and she suddenly threw her phone aside.
Xiaoya blinked, what happened?
"Just leave it like that!"
Zeng Li drank three cups of chrysanthemum tea to calm down her anger, packed her luggage with Xiaoya, and was about to leave for the set, but from the corner of her eye, she glanced at the phone that was in the cold palace from time to time.
Xiaoya narrowed her eyes. As someone who has been waiting for her boyfriend to reply to text messages, she was so worried about gains and losses...
Didi, didi~
Finally, the long-awaited bell rang.
Zeng Li lifted her hair from her temples and picked it up again.
Lu Fei said: [I'm sorry, senior, I just saw it. Let's try another day. I've been very busy recently and I'm going to the United States in a few days]
Zeng Li said: "Didn't you just come back from the United States? Why are you going again?" 】
Lu Fei said: [I can’t explain a sentence or two clearly, people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can’t help themselves]
"well."
Zeng Li could only agree and stare at the cold screen in a daze.
In the blink of an eye, I held the teapot in my hand, put my mouth to the mouth of the pot, and drank the bitter tea into my throat.
……………
ps: Just in case any readers come across OLED screen.
There are three stages of OLED screen application:
(1) From 1997 to 2001, it was in the trial stage. In 1997, OLED was commercially produced by Pioneer Company and used in car audio for the first time in the world.
(2) From 2002 to 2005, in the growth stage, the main products were learning machines and electronic dictionaries, mainly small panels under 10 inches, and MP3 was completely sufficient.
(3) After 2005, OLED began to mature, and many Nokia N series later used OLED screens.
