The Iraqi invasion of Kuwait launched by Saddam is attracting widespread attention in the international community.

On the day of the Iraqi invasion, US President Bush immediately announced that Iraq's military operations "posed a real threat" to the national interests of the United States and immediately frozen all assets of Iraq and Kuwait.

This was so fast that he didn't even need to make a draft. He invaded that day and announced that he "posed a threat" to the national interests of the United States.

Under normal circumstances, at least an investigation team must be formed to analyze the information at hand, and then hold two meetings to discuss and discuss it?

For Bush, he had obviously considered Saddam's invasion of Kuwait.

Of course, Saddam himself has a good idea of ​​killing him, and he really cannot rely on others.

On August 2, the day after Iraq invaded Kuwait, two US aircraft carriers, Eisenhower and Independence, were ready for war and headed to the combat area.

Immediately the same day, the UN Security Council passed Resolution 660, which demanded Iraq's withdrawal of troops with 14 votes in favor and 0 votes against.

On August 3, the United States and the Soviet Union issued a joint statement, requiring Iraq to "withdraw troops from Kuwait unconditionally" and "fully restore Kuwait's sovereignty, legitimate regime and territorial integrity." In the eyes of Gorbachev, the best friend of the United States, it is obvious that "it is time to cooperate with you to perform, and do your best to perform."

Immediately afterwards, the Arab League announced its condemnation of Iraq, and the United Nations Security Council passed resolution 661 to impose economic sanctions on Iraq.

On August 4, Bush signed the "Desert Shield" action plan, and the 82nd Airborne Division of the US 2300 flew to Saudi Arabia...

The Americans were obviously prepared for Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. A series of punches were hit, and at this time, they were already in a dilemma against Saddam.

Advance may face the US military directly, and retreat means losing a big loss. Not only will the US dollar not be gained, but it will also face sanctions from the United Nations.

This is really hard to accept for Saddam, who had not gained neither Mao in the Iran-Iraq War.

He decided to stick with it and bet again!

Just as the war in the Middle East reigned, China on the other side of Asia also attracted the attention of the world.

...

Louis was on an ANA flight landing at the Imperial Capital Airport, and he looked at the strange country in surprise.

He has heard of the name of China many times, such as the cheap shirts purchased worldwide in Wal-Mart supermarkets, the exotic "Wanfeng" cosmetics on his wife's dressing table, and the "madeinhina" rechargeable battery inside.

Most of the time, the word "hina" is too far away for Louis.

He thought that he would never have any real connection with China in this life.

Who would have thought that things in the world are just like this? How could he, a senior manager of an American high-tech company, come to China?

Things have to start from the beginning of 1990.

Well, maybe things have to start from earlier.

In San Diego in 1985, seven people gathered at Dr. Irving Jacobs' home. These people had the vision that ordinary people could not meet and saw a new world that had not been discovered.

The abbreviation of quality-muniations is quality, and it is pronounced in Chinese, which means "Qualcomm".

Qualcomm's first commercial product is the omnitracs system developed for the freight industry, which can use commercial satellites for mobile communications.

On this basis, Qualcomm developed the later third-generation mobile communication technology, cdma.

With the unique technological advantages of CDMA, Qualcomm has become the emperor of the entire mobile communications industry. By binding patents and authorization platforms and other means, it has firmly grasped the upstream of the communications industry.

But this will happen at least twenty years later.

In the late 1980s, the American Telecommunications Industry Association recognized a digital communication technology called time division multiple access (tdma), and just three months later, when the industry was still generally skeptical, Qualcomm had already launched the code division multiple access (cdma) technology for wireless data transmission.

This is undoubtedly a cross-age technology, and the potential of CDMA in digital wireless communications is amazing. In particular, Qualcomm has spent a lot of resources at this time and lobbying for the US radio communication standards to adopt CDMA.

When things were just about to go, Qualcomm suddenly received a fax.

The fax is a summons, a court summons.

China Xinke Group sued Qualcomm in the United States for patent theft.

At the beginning, Qualcomm refused the charge.

What a joke, I, an American high-tech company, will steal the technology of your Chinese companies?

Let’s see if you try to get involved? Who believes that if you sue American companies in the United States for infringing on patents of Chinese companies?

However, when Qualcomm searched for the patents described in detail in the fax, General Manager Swin's white face suddenly turned pale.

This is a scam!

Qualcomm's current patents in the CDMA field are all covered by patents in Xinke Group through a wider range of fields.

As long as Xinke Group is willing, it can apply for a court to declare invalidity of the CDMA patent in Qualcomm.

After more than a month, a closed-door work by a well-known lawyer group in patents, Swin Bai concluded that this patent barrier is almost impeccable. The only possible route is to abandon CDMA technology and turn to other fields.

But the problem is that the reason why CDMA technology can still become the mainstream technology of 3g when it is monopolized by Qualcomm has its own unique advantages. Its code division multiple access feature makes it convenient to expand bandwidth in wireless communications and utilize the very tight frequency resources of wireless communications.

In the process of transmitting information by different users, the cdma technology modulates the signal to be transmitted using a pseudo-random code with a bandwidth much larger than the signal bandwidth.

Simply put, imagine information as a car. Time-division multiple access means that only one car is passed through a certain period of time on a road. When the car reaches its destination, the road will be allocated to another car for use.

Code division multiple access is like a real road. Cars have license plate numbers. Even if many cars run on the road, as long as the license plate numbers are correct, you don’t have to worry about not knowing its destination.

Relatively speaking, it is naturally a path to make code division multiple access more efficiently.

By the same token, when radio resources are limited, of course, code division multiple access can make full use of bandwidth and be more suitable for wireless communication mode.

This is why Qualcomm is confident that he can convince the Radio Commission to accept that CDMA has become the US radio communication standard.

But if we want to invest resources in the development of other technologies again, not to mention the embarrassment of self-defeating, how can Qualcomm have such a lot of capital?

Qualcomm develops cdma, which is also standing on the shoulders of giants, and the American academic community has never stopped developing cdma.

On this basis, Qualcomm invested huge resources to achieve the commercial transformation of CDMA results.

If you do this kind of "bet on national destiny" again, no one dares to say that you will definitely succeed.

Almost, Swind Bai probably understands the feelings of Saddam who faces the US military best in this world.

It is difficult to ride a tiger, and it is difficult to get off the ground.

But Qualcomm is lucky to be better than Saddam. Behind it is the invincible America.

After the subpoena was delivered, while Qualcomm was in despair, Xinke Group suddenly withdrew its lawsuit.

Qualcomm's shareholders couldn't help but celebrate, thankfully escaped.

However, Swin Bai keenly realized that Xinke Group did not want to kill Qualcomm in the act of first prosecution and then withdrawing the lawsuit.

Xinke Group is a Chinese company, which is their biggest weakness.

The US communications industry will never put such a fatal patent standard in the hands of Chinese companies.

It’s like Chinese communication companies have to insert a kick into the CDMA standard anyway, and they have forced to create three standards: tdscdma, cdma2000 and wcdma. Whether it’s to defend the domestic communications industry or fight for power and profit, no one will let foreign companies take the lead in this critical position.

When it was 4g, fortunately, Huawei stood up, so that domestic communications companies would not hold their lives in the hands of others. When it was time to set the 5g standard, Huawei became a member of the dealer, and without Huawei, it would be impossible to play.

Such a company is a great company worthy of admiration!

So with the Chinese background of Xinke Group alone, it has no say in the technology of the communications industry in the United States.

In order to gain benefits from CDMA technology, Xinke Group is indispensable for the cooperation of Qualcomm.

As long as there is value in being exploited, Qualcomm has hope.

As Swinbai's capable subordinate, Louis was unstoppable to get this glorious and arduous task to the front.

Just when the war in the Middle East was covered with clouds, Louis flew from the United States to the Chinese imperial capital. What was placed in front of him was a very difficult task.

The rise and fall of Qualcomm can be said to be entirely entrusted to him.

After studying all the public information of Xinke Group and Hu Wenhai, Swinbai decided to bypass the low-level departments of Xinke Group and try to contact Hu Wenhai directly.

Obviously, as an emerging group, the absolute power of Xinke Group is in the hands of Hu Wenhai.

As for the analysis of Xinke Group's past cases, this time the patent barrier to Qualcomm is really too similar to Hu Wenhai's method.

Finding others is just a waste of time. Only by convinced Hu Wenhai can we solve the Damocles sword hanging above Qualcomm's head.

From the feedback from Xinke's American branch to the China Corporation, and then to Hu Wenhai's table, it doesn't have to be the time.

At this time, Swinbai keenly discovered an opportunity.

At this time, Hu Wenhai will definitely be found in the imperial capital. As long as you seize the opportunity, you may be able to successfully finalize the matter. But this opportunity is not so easy to seize, because Hu Wenhai must be found from more than 10 million people, which is really a matter of finding a needle in a haystack.

What's more, a large number of foreigners poured in at this time in the imperial capital.

After all, the 1990 Imperial Capital Asian Games is about to begin!
Chapter completed!
