Chapter 662 House of Cards
"The Meidong mobile phone launched by Fanhan Mobile Technology uses the six-ear system developed by Rebirth Technology, bringing us a brand new mobile phone experience!"
"Fanhan Mobile has reinvented the phone. Compared with Meidong mobile phones, today's mobile phones are so unsmart. ∑w."
"The compatibility of the six-ear system is amazing, and Reborn Technology has been invited by many mobile phone manufacturers to cooperate."
"Citizens shouted: We want wifi, don't wapi!"
"We must choose the products we like when lifting the ban on Fanhan Group!"
As time goes by, not only some ordinary fans began to protest, but even some large American companies began to exert their own influence in Congress.
Motorola has seen the opportunity to return to the mainstream of the market, network providers have seen the need to increase network bandwidth, and even the entire American semiconductor industry has made its own voice.
Americans have shed too much blood in China in recent years, and Cisco and the Intelligence Committee for Cisco Zhang have become public enemies.
Fanhan Group withdrew from the United States in a complete manner, and even Liuer Fund cleared its shares. Against this backdrop, Fanhan Group no longer had to be afraid of US patents.
There are many cases of playing edge balls and even simply infringing rights.
For example, mechanical hard drives. Great Wall Group wanted to do research on this aspect before, one was because it was because it was costly, and the other was because it had no patented technology.
After cooperating with Fanhan Group, the cost is not a problem. A little leaked from the trillion-dollar plan is enough for Great Wall Group's R&D expenses. Without considering patents, Great Wall Group simply continues to develop new technologies based on hard drive manufacturers such as Seagate and Western Digital.
At worst, you can sue me, and you can sue me at will in China. Great Wall's products are not exported to the United States. If you get on the Panhan Group's pirate ship, you will naturally fight to the end with the Americans.
But American companies are not good. After Chinese patents are registered in the United States, the patent management environment in the United States is much more serious than that in China.
The environment for TI is not easy. Fanhan Group holds the patent for a six-arm spiral antenna. This technology can now be said to have completely unified the RF standard of mobile phones. Once the business of RF modules is gone, it will be a damaging problem for TI. In addition, in terms of industrial CNC chips, the strong rise of China's CNC machine tools in recent years has hit the demand for CNC chips too much.
The business of RF modules and industrial control chips has dropped sharply, and it feels like it cannot be sustained.
Such a two-pronged approach, and Americans have to avoid Chinese patents during the research and development process. However, many companies in the Chinese market are blatantly using American corporate patents.
Almost all American semiconductor companies cannot stand such unfair competition.
In order to maintain Cisco's survival in the US market, American companies face losses of tens of billions of dollars in mainland China every year. Which company does not feel sorry for their hearts?
So taking advantage of this opportunity to play mobile phones, they also started to move in Congress.
"Our next generation of mobile phones must adopt the model of Charming phones."
"This is impossible. We don't have the right to use the six-ear system. Besides, many technologies are patents of Fanhan Group, and even the patents of full-screen mobile phones are theirs."
"Then we might as well infringe on the rights. In short, we must develop our own charming mobile phone."
"The US holders of the relevant patents will take us to court."
"We can hire lawyers from Ouhua Firm. We don't have to be afraid of them when we go to lawsuits in the United States."
"Please be honest, even so, our mobile phones cannot be sold. Unless we abandon the Wapi standard, except for government-related users, there is no manufacturer using Wapi standard. They would rather use Wifi technology privately because the product resources in this area are much richer than Wapi. But the government will not agree, let alone we cannot pass the certification of the Wifi Alliance."
"What should I do? Mr. Edward, tell me what should I do!"
Motorola's president Edward took a deep breath. He looked at Underwood Congressman with a serious look and said seriously: "Reconciliation. We must reconcile with the Panhan Group, and everyone will return to the normal competitive environment. The United States no longer blocks Panhan Group's products, and Panhan Group no longer blocks American companies from the market in mainland China."
Edward lowered his voice in anger and shouted: "Underwood Congressman, do you know the output value of the semiconductor industry in mainland China last year and the benefits the entire Pan-Han Industry Alliance obtained from it? These should have been from American companies, but tm's damn Cisco ruined all this!"
"I know this number."
The person who spoke was the ti CEO Angelber who came over. He and Edward were both prepared today.
"This year is already certain that it will be the year with the largest trade deficit between the United States and China. The United States imported products from China reached US$76.9 billion in the first two quarters, while the United States exported to China only a pitiful US$14.4 billion. Of this US$14.4 billion, the semiconductor industry, which should be an advantageous industry, has only a transaction volume of US$800 million."
He shook his thighs, pulled the zipper of the water gate, and continued: "But do you know the operating performance of China's largest desktop computer assembly company, Fantasy Group, in the first half of the year? HK$11.5 billion, or about US$1.5 billion, this is just the sales of a brand computer company. Among these 1.5 billion, there was originally US$1 billion that should have been our American company. But now, it has all flowed into the hands of Fanhan Group and its industrial alliance companies. Let's look at our domestic-"
"TMD US soybean exports reached US$1.4 billion. Are we the United States an industrial country? **, I have seen the first time exporting agricultural products and large-scale imports of industrial products in industrial countries."
"Underwood Councilman, this situation cannot be changed. You are the Republican Party whip, and it is not a very reasonable thing to check the motivations of those people in the Intelligence Committee to propose proposals?"
"Two gentlemen, thank you for trusting me so much." Underwood MP picked up his briefcase, thought for a while, and said, "I will discuss this with Mr. President."
"Thank you, thank you, Underwood."
The United States is in a state of turmoil, but China, on the other side of the ocean, suddenly became quiet.
The streets are sparsely populated, shopping malls, markets, and squares are silent. Even on Saturdays and Sunday afternoons, there is no sign of the once surging heads.
If Chinese movies have the theme of making doomsday movies, now they can simply set up cameras on the streets to capture the doomsday atmosphere.
All of this comes from a noun that suddenly appears: **.
**The epidemic has swept the whole world, and China has entered a state of martial law at this time. Schools are closed, factories are shut down, markets are closed, and everyone is hiding in the houses in the city and can't go anywhere.
But this is just the surface calmness. Under this calm water, a revolution is sweeping across the land of China.
"Taobao?"
"What is that? Shopping online? Do you meet a scammer if you don't shoot?"
"What else do you do? Do you want to take the risk of going to the market to buy things? Be careful!"
Such conversations are constantly repeating throughout China, and Taobao has become people's first choice for shopping during the epidemic. Online shopping, with the help of the special period of **, suddenly entered the life of Chinese people.
Moreover, it seems that buying things online is not as difficult and unreliable as imagined.
On the contrary, the huge variety of goods and low prices easily conquered all users.
"Taobao's June transaction volume is even higher than last year's transaction volume." Niu Xing waved the documents in his hand and said excitedly: "We will change the lives of Chinese people and change the business methods of the entire China!"
"Okay, I think we did it." Pang Zhou nodded faintly and looked at the data in his hand.
He has encountered similar situations before. Whether in the United States or China, Internet companies always grow very quickly. High growth and unparalleled prospects are exactly what fascinates people.
Not to mention the distant past, two years after Rebirth Technology launched Liuer Search, it launched bidding ranking business nationwide, with its operating income that year only three million yuan. But last year, in 2002, the annual operating income reached 50 million yuan.
Similarly, Taobao's transaction volume in 2002 was only 67 million, which was only 1.2 times the transaction in June 2003.
Taobao is conquering China.
"However, I heard you are preparing to accept investment from Masayoshi Son and Yahoo?" Pang Zhou raised it inadvertently.
A hint of panic flashed across Niu Xing's face and nodded, "SoftBank Group is in contact with me, and they are very interested in investing in Alibaba. Moreover, Masayoshi Son has many relationships, which will be very helpful to Alibaba's future development."
"Very good." Pang Zhou nodded.
"If you need a capital network, Liuer Investment can do it. We may be a little unhappy with Americans now, but there will be a turnaround this year."
Pang Zhou couldn't hear his attitude towards Masayoshi Son's investment in Alibaba, and said calmly: "Masayoshi Son and Panhan Group were also close partners. Alibaba can be the leader in China's e-commerce, but it would be better for Rebirth Technology to do it in the search engine market, right?"
"Don't get involved in Google and Yahoo, it won't do Alibaba."
Others don’t know, but Zhou Shuo still remembers it. After Jack Ma made money on Taobao, he acquired Yahoo China, but he once wanted to enter the search engine market.
It’s not because he is afraid that he will compete for Liuer Search, but because he doesn’t want him to cause trouble for Rebirth Technology at this time. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
