Reborn multinational giant

Fang Zhe couldn't help being surprised and shocked by this news, because in his previous life, Jobs had never been to China from birth to death!

There are many reasons for this, including Steve Jobs’ personal arrogance and his dislike of Chinese cottages and traditional impressions of backwardness, etc., until the last Apple conference held before his death. Because of the opening of the Jianghai Pudong Apple retail store, Steve Jobs was very interested in China His impression has changed.

However, now, Jobs will not only visit China, but also visit Huizhong. Obviously, Jobs’s life trajectory has changed due to Fang Zhe and Huizhong. As for whether Jobs will be the same as in his previous life at this year’s Apple conference I am afraid that only God knows about his death the next day!

As early as the last century, when Apple's personal computers were popular all over the world, Jobs was already a prominent figure in the global IT industry.

A few years ago Steve Jobs returned to Apple and led Apple to create a series of brilliant achievements such as iPods and iPhones, leading the global smartphone trend and opening the mobile Internet boom, making Apple one of the world’s highest market capitalization and most influential IT technology companies. , Jobs's reputation and status in the global IT industry is even more prosperous!

"It seems that the two previous meetings with Steve Jobs really had a great impact on him, at least it made him a great change in his attitude towards China!"

After listening to Li Wen’s news, Fang Zhe couldn’t help but recall the two previous meetings he met with Jobs and talked to him a lot about China. Perhaps it was because of these reasons and Huizhong’s current global achievements that made Jobs. The attitude towards China has been greatly improved.

Of course, this is not about Fang Zhe’s humility and admiration, but Fang Zhe’s approach and attitude. If there is a person you admire who is unkind to your homeland, you certainly hope to convince him to let his attitude. For the better, as for ignoring him or even disgusting him, that is just an immature performance. One size is one size. Is it because the United States picks China's thorns all day, so China and the United States can not cooperate?

After Fang Zhe listened to Li Wen’s report, he asked him to go down and draft a visit schedule after Jobs’ visit, and then meet to discuss specific details. Before Li Wen went out, Fang Zhe suddenly stopped him and said :

"Does our canteen have a Sichuan-Shu chef, or can cook authentic Sichuan-Shu Mapo Tofu? It depends on the situation. If there is a meal plan, remember to add this dish. If necessary, raw materials can be shipped from Sichuan and Sichuan by air! "

When Li Wen heard Fang Zhe say this, he suddenly remembered. It seems that when President Fang met with Jobs in the United States before, he had said that if Jobs had the opportunity to visit China, he would personally invite him to eat authentic Mapo tofu. For more than a year, President Fang still remembered this trivial matter. It seems that President Fang paid much attention to Jobs' visit!

Jobs wants to visit China, and one of the stops is Huizhong. Fang Zhe naturally has to show his concern and attention. Regardless of Huizhong and Apple, the position gap between Fang Zhe and Jobs in the global IT industry, Apple alone is Huizhong. The shareholders behind it are also one of Huizhong's backstage supporters for global development. Fang Zhe couldn't neglect the arrival of Jobs.

After Li Wen left, Fang Zhe suppressed his thoughts about Steve Jobs’ visit to China, and continued to look at a document on the table. This document was discussed by the executives of Huizhong and many major domestic mobile phone manufacturers. Joint investment plan of Huichuang Company!

Huichuang, a Zhongying Capital under Fang Zhe’s name, invested and founded a mobile phone patent research and development company in mid-2009. Due to the BUG guidance of Fang Zhe’s rebirth, Huizhong has developed and produced many black technologies in the past two years. And various patents.

At the same time, major mobile phone manufacturers, including domestic Xiaomi, Huawei, Meizu, etc., have also become customers of Huichuang, and have cooperation with Huichuang in various aspects such as technical research and development guidance and patent authorization.

With the passage of time, the cooperation with major domestic mobile phone manufacturers has become more and more intimate. At the same time, the research and development of the internal technology patents, technical conditions and R&D difficulty of the company has also become higher and higher.

In the first two years, the one-handed operation, screen size ratio design and other patents developed by Huichuang are not technically difficult, and the requirements for various resources such as capital and hardware are not large. Patent licensing profits are still sufficient to support and balance R&D expenditures.

But now, when the R&D technology turns into fingerprint recognition, face recognition, 5-minute fast charging and other technically difficult black technologies, even if Fang Zhe knows that these are the development directions and trends of future mobile phones, the R&D team led by Li Zhipeng is also a coincidence. It is difficult for women to cook without rice, because the accumulated technology of Huichuang still has a lot of gaps compared with the big manufacturers such as Motorola, Nokia, Ericsson and even domestic Huawei.

For this reason, how to survive and develop is what Fang Zhe, the boss behind, has been thinking about and working hard to solve.

Fortunately, the idea was actually as early as when Huichuang was founded, Fang Zhe had it, and that was to cooperate with major domestic mobile phone manufacturers to establish a mobile phone patent alliance based on Huichuang!

Patent alliance or patent pool is a joint organization that exists in some industries in many countries and regions at home and abroad.

Its manifestation is that each company or organization that has formed a patent alliance puts out a part of the patents they own into the alliance, and authorizes it to other companies in the organization for free or at a certain cost, so as to ensure that every company in the alliance is Can obtain the greatest patent benefit at the least cost.

Under normal circumstances, the role of the patent alliance is most obvious when the industry goes abroad collectively. For example, a certain company in a certain industry wants to go overseas, but a certain patent restricted to the product is not authorized abroad, and The overseas company that owns the patent can take this to rip off or your competitor will not use it for you at all. At this time, if your patent alliance also grabs the patent handle of the other party, you can use this to counter the other party or both parties can To negotiate a compromise.

Since the reform and opening up for more than 30 years, with many domestic companies from all walks of life going overseas, organizations similar to the Patent Alliance are common in China, including the LED industry, home appliance industry and other famous overseas Chinese manufacturing industries, which are basically similar. Patent union organization.

However, in the mobile phone industry, there is almost no decent patent alliance in China. At most, there are patent cross-licensing of several big-name mobile phone manufacturers.

One reason is that various basic patents in the mobile phone industry, such as communications and networks, are basically in the hands of established mobile phone manufacturers such as Motorola, Nokia, and Ericsson.

Another reason is that the strengths of the major domestic mobile phone manufacturers are uneven, fighting each other, and no one accepts each other. The CEOs of the two mobile phone companies don’t ridicule each other even if they are generous, how can they expect them to shake hands and make peace? What patent alliance is formed by some of the interests in China?
