Plagiarism? It’s just a joke. I have asked the legal department to investigate this matter. Apple will never accept any form of slander!”

Faced with Gang Leader Qiao's defense, the reporter was completely unmoved.

“I heard that the new product IPOD that Apple is developing has copied a lot of ideas and technology from Tianyin MP3. Is this true?”

Jobs' face suddenly became very ugly, and he immediately retorted: "How can we say that product development is plagiarism? This is at most a reference!"

As a latecomer, Apple's technology accumulation is insufficient, and infringement is normal. Many large companies' products actually infringe each other, and finally reached a settlement. The key is MP3, the technology is there, for a company like Apple

There is no technical difficulty at all. The key is that Tianyin released it early. Doesn’t your later release become an infringement?

What Gang Leader Qiao didn't expect was that Lu Yiming would actually use this thing to make a fuss, directly putting Apple in the position of a plagiarist.

In front of the TV, Lu Yiming and Li Yiwen were watching video clips of Gang Leader Qiao being interviewed.

Seeing Gang Leader Qiao furious, Li Yiwen laughed and said, "Did you go too far with this move? You see, it made Gang Leader Qiao angry."

Lu Yiming smiled and said: "It's just business slander. What does that count? Didn't you just say that someone in the newspaper said that I was a thief from the East who robbed the wealth of countless Americans? What? They can only slander me, that's all.

Can’t I hack them?”

The matter of Tianyin Company suing Apple for plagiarism was quickly reported back to Xia Guo through three major portal websites, and became a hot topic on the Internet.

In the 1990s, Xiaguo's companies were basically accused of infringement for making copycats. Now there is actually a local company going to the United States to file an infringement lawsuit against foreign investors?

For a time, the reputation of the company Mingyuan Technology has been greatly improved. After all, it dares to file a lawsuit with an American company. If nothing else, it has become so powerful all at once.

On the American side, there are also many people who look at Mingyuan Technology with admiration. At least after this lawsuit, many people subconsciously compared Mingyuan Technology with a technology company like Apple.

It's very simple. In people's subconscious mind, only equally matched opponents will compete with each other. How can one in the sky and the other on the ground become rivals? Therefore, Mingyuan Technology will naturally be attracted by Apple's ability to show off its tricks.

It has reached the same height as Apple.

This is the reason why many companies like to try their luck at famous companies. If they don’t succeed, everyone will treat them as a joke. Once they succeed, they don’t know how much benefit they can bring.

Bill Gates called out of curiosity and asked: "Why did you have a quarrel with Gang Leader Qiao?"

Although Microsoft and Apple are competitors, the relationship between Bill Gates and Gang Leader Qiao is actually very good. Although they fell out due to business matters, they still keep in touch with each other frequently on weekdays. Therefore, after getting married,

After knowing that Lu Yiming had a quarrel with Gang Leader Qiao, he called immediately.

Lu Yiming smiled and said: "You can't blame me, he was the one who made the move first."

Bill Gates already knew the whole story, and of course he would not believe Lu Yiming's words: "You were obviously the first to report Apple's infringement."

Lu Yiming said: "Didn't he infringe the rights first? How could I sue him if he didn't infringe the rights? Do you think so?"

Bill Gates said: "In any case, the Joe Gang is playing the patriotic card. To the United States, you are an outsider and public opinion is not on your side."

Lu Yiming raised his eyebrows and said, "So?"

Bill Gates said: "Do you want to change public opinion through charity?"

The so-called "through charity" means donating money. Many wealthy people in the United States like to flaunt themselves as big philanthropists.

In January this year, Bill Gates just stepped down as president of Microsoft. Now he holds 1.3% of Microsoft's shares. He and his wife co-operate the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Since 1994

, Bill Gates has donated more than 10 billion US dollars to the foundation.

American law stipulates that only 5% of the money donated to charity is spent each year, and the remaining 95% can be used for business activities. As long as it is not less than this ratio, this money does not need to pay taxes.

In other words, one million U.S. dollars originally required a tax of 300,000 U.S. dollars, but as long as you use 5%, or 50,000 U.S. dollars, for charity, the one million dollars will be tax-free.

This is equivalent to paying a tax of 5% - even this 5% is still transferred from the left hand to the right hand, from your own account to the foundation's account.

However, these wealthy people's tax avoidance method, which is called charity, was carefully packaged and immediately won various praises for "charity", "distribution of wealth", and "helping the poor". Especially in Xia State, people like Bill Gates

The rich man who claims that he "donates naked" is short of the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva with a halo above his head.

Facing Bill Gates' proposal, although Lu Yiming didn't agree with it, he didn't refuse it directly. Instead, he said: "I will seriously consider your suggestion."

Bill Gates said: "If you are interested, Linda and I will hold a charity dinner over the weekend. If you have time then, come and have a look."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming said to Li Yiwen: "Bill Gates called me and wanted me to make a charitable donation."

Li Yiwen had never been exposed to this, so he was full of doubts: "He is the richest man in the world, you donate money to him?"

"That's not true. There are quite a lot of twists and turns here. He has a charity dinner on Saturday, and I plan to go there and have a look."

Li Yiwen felt even more surprised: "You don't really plan to donate, do you?"

In Li Yiwen's impression, Lu Yiming was stingy, even buying an ice pack for only 10 cents. Asking him to donate? How is that possible?

Lu Yiming nodded slightly and said, "I plan to show some interest, and then I'll see if I can get 100 million US dollars."

"What the hell? You want to donate 100 million to Bill Gates?"

Li Yiwen felt a little broken.

My lungs are almost coughing up
