"How do you prevent this from happening? After all, your current size is much smaller than that company in Germany. This has happened to us several times. Is there any way you can avoid it?"
After finishing a steamed bun, Mr. Xu brought the topic to the core matter.
Ji Donglai secretly thought that what should come will come, especially for things like equipment manufacturing, patents are absolutely unavoidable.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, we have also thought of this matter. First of all, we hired a well-known lawyer at home and abroad to do our legal work. The other party is not in the country these days and is helping a company to litigate a patent case abroad. , his winning rate is 90%.”
"Once a lawsuit occurs, the German company has no branches in our country and can only apply for international matters. We have no international sales, so there is no infringement of its patents. Even if it is a domestic lawsuit, there is a very important There is a big time difference, one year is enough for us to deliver the equipment, so there is no need to worry.”
"As for what happens a year later, we will accompany them in their lawsuit, and you, the buyers, do not need to bear any responsibility. Besides, our equipment has similar functions to theirs, but it has more functions and is more advanced than theirs."
"Watt improved the steam engine. Did he pay the original inventor a patent fee? And there are very core things. Their equipment has not changed in six years. It is expensive. They say the equipment has been upgraded. In fact, it is just a replacement of the shell. . The core technology only has two cutting knives left, and we no longer use them.”
"So Mr. Xu, please rest assured that our equipment is absolutely fine in the professional field. If they want to cause trouble, just let them go. If we dare to sell equipment, we will use our capabilities to provide delivery, after-sales and various maintenance."
It is now 2001, and the WTO has a certain buffer period for China. During this period, Ji Donglai must resolve the patent matter and establish a harbor for the company's core technology capabilities.
For the set of equipment in front of him, Ji Donglai had already asked professional lawyers to start studying the other party's patents registered in Europe. What surprised Ji Donglai was that the other party had not registered any relevant patents in the United States.
Domestically, there is even more blank space. Ji Donglai can be invincible with just these two points.
Besides, Ji Donglai has indeed made comprehensive improvements to these equipments. The Germans will not think highly of Ji Donglai at first. After all, their orders are hundreds of millions every quarter, and Ji Donglai can earn hundreds of millions a year. Even that’s good.
By the time the other party can take Ji Donglai seriously, Ji Donglai is confident that he has upgraded his equipment to more than three generations.
It's all bullshit that China's fuel vehicle engines can never make good engines, and they can't bypass European and American technology patents.
After decades of research, I have long understood this thing.
Twenty years from now, the world's energy landscape will undergo tremendous changes, and China will lead the next generation of energy revolution. Carbon dioxide and various pollution caused by fuel vehicles are big problems that European, American, Japanese and Korean countries cannot solve.
In the context of global warming, new energy vehicles are the way to go. As for the patent issue of engines, it is not a big deal at all.
This reception was a success. Li Ming led Mr. Xu to stay in the factory for an entire afternoon. The excellent performance of the integrated rubber mixing machine equipment successfully attracted the other party's attention.
Until he sent off the other party's inspection team, Li Ming clearly expressed his great intention, and Ji Donglai was relieved. All departments under his command began to make corresponding preparations. Zhao Shuying was constantly planning and preparing funds, and Xue Wancheng also convened the equipment workshop to start gearing up.
"Monitor, do you have time to care about our class's New Year's Day party? Our class is in charge of one of the programs our department produces for the department. Wu Zhen made it so chaotic and annoying."
After seeing off the inspection team, Chen Yiqing paid wages to the Capital Institute of Technology Art Troupe. Lu Yin happened to be among the team. She found Ji Donglai and said helplessly. Ji Donglai was slightly startled.
"What's going on? Didn't the hospital provide funds? Why is there still such a thing as sponsorship?"
After pouring a drink for Lu Yin, Ji Donglai thought about the recent events in the class. It seemed that there was nothing important. As for the New Year's Day party, Ji Donglai only took a glance at it.
I am not good at acting-related things.
"How can a little be enough? When Wu Zhen was the league secretary, he took it upon himself to lend our things to outsiders. When we got them back, the class cadre at the time was responsible for warehousing them. As a result, our major was assigned a program this year and we found out , the equipment inside is broken. So much time has passed, Wu Zhen refuses to admit it."
"The money was not enough to repair the equipment, but it was all because of the money provided by several of our class cadres. Wu Zhen said that he could sponsor it, but his girlfriend must play the leading female role in this show. Who can steal the show? It’s unprofessional. Seeing that the New Year’s Eve party is coming soon, if we don’t do it, we will be completely kicked out.”
"You should go back and take a look when you have time. Wu Zhen is taking advantage of his family's dirty money to act like a slut in the class. If he continues like this, he will make a big joke."
Speaking of Wu Zhen, Lu Yin became angry.
Several people in the class originally wanted to raise funds to sponsor the class, but the other party said that they could sponsor the class on their own, and ridiculed the other people that they were poor people and should not show off if they had no money. The other people simply withdrew.
It turns out that Wu Zhen has many conditions, especially Wu Zhen's girlfriend. She is pretty, but she is just as domineering and selfish as Wu Zhen, which makes other professionals not want to play.
This is a program that can add credits. Many people are still enduring it because of this, but it is so bad and embarrassing.
College students are at a competitive age, so it's strange that they would be willing to be so disturbed by the other party.
"I'll go back tomorrow morning. You notify us professionals to hold a meeting together and tell them that I want to treat them to dinner."
Thinking of Wu Zhen's arrogant look, Ji Donglai felt uncomfortable in his heart. It has been more than a year since the class re-election. Wu Zhen has always thought that it was Ji Donglai who was messing with him. He glared at Ji Donglai every time he saw him.
Faced with such a child who was spoiled by life, Ji Donglai chose to stay away from him.
Let everyone in the company prepare before the order comes. Ji Donglai returned to class the next day and sat with a group of people. Only then did Ji Donglai realize that Wu Zhen had definitely gone too far.
The other party's girlfriend, to be precise, his current girlfriend is from the Management Institute.
When talking about the other person's advantages, there is only one thing to look for in all aspects, and that is a beautiful stunner.
Other than that, she is useless. Some people say she is a school beauty. In fact, only the real college ghosts have time to arrange this for you. Someone would do this unless they wanted to choose concubines for the rich. Today's colleges and universities are not that chaotic. Most of the colleges depicted are actually social animals who have never attended college.
