Naturally, Fruit didn’t want to disrupt its global sales plan because of this incident, so amidst the uproar, Fruit’s products were finally released.
Haoyu Technology's European branch immediately issued a statement that a total of 17 of the wireless remote charging technologies used by the fruit infringed on Haoyu Technology's related technology patents.
In the next step, Haoyu Technology will organize technical patent and legal consultants and lawyers to discuss the matter, and then organize a team of lawyers to file a lawsuit.
Fruit, on the other hand, issued a mild statement about this, and then sold its products normally. It seemed that it was deliberately ignoring this matter, and it was obvious that it wanted to cold-treat it.
Because Wu Hao’s smart AR glasses and related AR glasses from other manufacturers were released earlier, Guoguo’s IOSAR glasses did not seem to arouse much interest from consumers. Except for some die-hard fans of fruit brands, other consumers don't seem too interested.
In the past, fruit products were popular because they were really good. For example, mobile phones and tablets have the best processors, the best mobile systems, and genius designs, which bring everyone a different experience.
But now the fruit, like an old man in his twilight years, seems to have used up all his talents and is going downhill.
The IOSAR glasses they released this time don't seem to have much advantages compared to other manufacturers' products, and the price is very high. Coupled with the impact of this incident, the previous scene of queuing up after the release of new products has disappeared.
On the day when the new product went on sale, there were only short queues outside fruit direct-sale stores in several first-tier cities in China, and there was not much movement at other stores in other places.
Overseas, the same is true for the markets in most countries and regions. Sales in the United States and several hardcore countries are relatively hot. This is because they only sell products of our domestic brands, so this hot situation occurs.
This scene also made many media lament that the United States and the products it is proud of are gradually losing their international influence.
Of course, it also made more people aware of this domestic company. Many media couldn't help but lament that a new fruit was rising strongly under the leadership of the new leader Qiao. He will take over Fruit and lead the advancement of digital technology in the world.
Faced with such an unfavorable situation, Guoguo, on the one hand, stepped up its research efforts and even adopted the United States' consistent rhetoric of "anti-Japanese threat theory."
This argument is very popular in the United States or the Western world. No matter what you are doing, whether it is running for the top job, running a business, or lobbying in parliament, as long as you put forward the "anti-Japanese threat theory", it is very useful.
Even Emperor Okawa relied on this card to overcome obstacles and sit directly on the throne of the leader.
Sure enough, as soon as this argument came out, it immediately aroused resonance from all walks of life. The US government responded quickly and will conduct further investigations and restrictions on Haoyu Technology. It also stated that there is evidence that Haoyu Technology is using its technological advantages to attack companies in the United States and even the entire West, which is detrimental to the interests of the United States and undermines the free market order.
Such a shameless statement also allowed the world to once again see how low the rank of the world's biggest gangster is and how shameless he is.
Who has been relying on technological superiority to suppress other dissidents for a long time, and who is undermining the free market order? Now it is really eye-opening to be so shameless and falsely accuse others.
Even the media in European countries couldn't stand it anymore and wrote ridiculing articles one after another.
The domestic CCTV also issued a news editorial titled "Who is destroying the free market order again?"
In this editorial, the numerous crimes committed by the United States in the past were listed, and the facts of how the United States suppressed other countries and companies from other countries were written.
And relying on its paving the way in new media over the years, especially its coverage in the Internet, virtual world, and AR glasses platform, this article quickly became popular overseas and was forwarded by many media.
Another domestic official media was much tougher. It directly criticized the technology blockade and suppression policies that the United States has implemented in recent years with the title "Playing with fire and self-immolation, and you will suffer the consequences."
The article stated that Haoyu Technology’s relevant prosecution statement is reasonable, legal and reasonable, and it is entirely to safeguard its legitimate interests and should be supported by countries and people around the world.
At the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the spokesperson further reiterated our consistent positions and policies. It also stated that it will fully support domestic enterprises in safeguarding their legitimate interests through legal channels and means from being infringed. The spokesperson also said that this is a normal case of technology patent disputes between enterprises, which should be left to the enterprises to resolve themselves. Politics should not get involved, let alone complicate it, etc.
The spokesperson's answer, which was neither humble nor overbearing, also won praise from around the world. This is the attitude of a truly responsible big country, which is much better than that of a rogue country.
As for Wu Hao and the others, they did not take any further action immediately. Now that they have basically achieved what they wanted, further actions may be too much.
All they want is to increase the visibility of their products and companies and to combat the launch of fruit products. From this aspect, this series of actions can be considered to have achieved the results they wanted. If the quarrel continues, it may be somewhat detrimental to them and may even have a negative impact.
So Wu Hao decided to control the situation within this scope and not to expand it any further. If it continues to expand, it will inevitably attract more forces to intervene, and it will also cause them to completely break up with the fruit. This is not what they want.
However, the fruit products are already on sale, and so many have been produced. It is impossible to ban the sale of their products, and the other party will not agree to it anyway.
Both parties know this, so they are now discussing other solutions, one of which is to compensate for losses and pay royalties for technology patents.
In this regard, Wu Hao and the others were naturally rude and directly shouted out a patent licensing fee of one billion U.S. dollars and two billion U.S. dollars in patent infringement losses.
To be honest, the sky-high price of three billion U.S. dollars seems very high, and it is a bit asking for a high price, but it is really not high. Judging from the amount of compensation paid in past patent infringement cases between Fruit, G Tong and S Star, Wu Hao and others are much more merciful.
For example, in April 1999, Fruit and G Tong ended five or six years of litigation and legal proceedings and finally reached a settlement. For this reason, Fruit paid a settlement fee of US$4.5 billion.
So Wu Hao and the others only asked for three billion US dollars, which was definitely a conscientious price.
