Five?

I heard the editor-in-chief around me say that after this cold winter, no more than 5 mobile phone brands will remain.

However, some people have different ideas and understandings.

"I think the editor-in-chief's guess is not rigorous enough." He questioned the editor-in-chief's words in public, which made a group of colleagues around him look askance.

Even the editor-in-chief looked puzzled. Could it be that he had a different opinion?

“Strictly speaking, there are only a few suppliers for these mobile phone brands on the market now.

If this minion company starts to supply external products, the mobile phone brand will not be affected at that time.

The only worry now is that it seems that Minion Technology Company alone has mastered too many core technologies.

If they choose not to sell, or if they selectively sell to specific companies.

For example, if we only sell them to domestic brands, does that mean that our domestic mobile phones will go overseas?

Become the only choice for consumers around the world!" As soon as these words came out, even the editor-in-chief put away the confusion on his face.

This could really turn out to be like this.

In the field of consumer electronics, foreign brands have dominated the domestic market for too long.

Relying on their technical advantages, they have done all kinds of things.

Differential treatment, double standards, and arbitrary pricing.

This is not a malicious smear, but something that every one of these foreign brands has done.

Now is also the time for consumers in their countries to experience what it feels like to be treated differently.

"This matter is not as simple as you think. As long as you don't supply these foreign brands, believe it or not, any of your patents will not be approved in the local country.

Recently, our country has been arguing with the other side of the ocean over patent issues.

Today's WiFi technology has become the default configuration of many electronic products.

However, because this is an emerging technology, there are still certain flaws.

There have also been cases where wifi vulnerabilities caused the loss of administrative rights.

For this reason, our country maintains a relatively conservative attitude towards WiFi technology.

To this end, we have launched our own patents and standards, which is to use the wapi standard to replace wifi!

In my opinion, it is understandable that we want to use self-developed technology to protect our own security.

However, the other party's WiFi alliance has already formed an actual interest group. How can this be a bone that can be broken overnight?

According to reliable information, the Ministry of Information Industry has issued an order that all electronic equipment, whether imported or self-produced, are not allowed to use wifi modules, and it is mandatory to install our wapi.

We can ban the other party’s wifi, but won’t the other party take action on our products?” The reporter’s words removed the last fig leaf of international patents.

“For patents, to put it bluntly, if someone abides by them, you are the legal patent owner.

If no one follows it, you are nothing.

I heard that our neighbor, Third Brother, has many patents from big-name foreign pharmaceutical companies.

Everything is not recognized in Third Brother’s house, so there are a lot of counterfeit drugs there.” Someone added a very real case.

I heard someone talking about wifi, and someone silently interjected.

“ For me, wifi is the best way to save money.

Today's Internet tariffs are too expensive. 1k of traffic actually costs 3 cents, which is equivalent to 30 yuan for 1 megabyte of traffic.

How can we, as ordinary consumers, afford such expensive Internet access fees?

And what’s even more outrageous is that it’s only been two days since I installed a router in my home, and they’ve already called me twice.

They say network cables can only be used for one line and one machine, and using a router will cost extra." Someone complained helplessly.

"I hope that the cost of Internet access can be reduced in the future..." Talking about the current tariff, even high-income people cannot afford it.

In this case, having a mobile phone connected to WiFi is naturally the most worry-free and cost-effective way.

At this time, Su An was not far in front of these people.

Su An did not appear in public today, but put on makeup to become a camera boy and filmed the entire testing process of Ni Guangnan.

The content presented on the big screen was all shot by Su An.

Although these people did not speak loudly, a few words reached Su An's ears.

Of course, Su An is very supportive of WAPI technical standards.

It was not until 2013 that such a technology patent was granted an international patent.

The reason why the patent was only obtained in 2013 is because a guy named Xi Nuodeng exposed a series of scandals.

When these scandals were announced, the dominance of WiFi was obviously subject to huge challenges and doubts.

Even allies who once strongly supported the decision-making on the other side of the ocean have chosen to support WAPI technology in obtaining international patents for global promotion.

To the uninitiated, these seem to be two completely different technologies.

But from the underlying logic, the only difference between the two technologies is the encryption method.

"According to what you said, even if we master the core technology, we must sell it to them!

If you don't sell it to them, even if you apply for a patent, they will produce it themselves and won't pay you a dime in patent fees.

Then this is too nonsense...

It's just business! I can sell to whomever I want. Anyway, it's mine and I have the final say." Someone said very simply.

Hearing the man speak, the reporter and the editor glanced at the man.

It was discovered that the other party did not wear a press card, indicating that the other party was not a reporter.

But even if you are a reporter, maybe a reporter from the entertainment industry.

"If you are doing a small business, of course you can sell to whomever you want.

For example, if you open a restaurant, you can entertain whoever you want.

If you see that he is unhappy, it is okay not to sell him food.

But in large-scale international transactions, this method is not feasible.

Do you know that the acquisitions and mergers of large foreign companies have nothing to do with us?

They are two completely different countries with completely different business practices. They also have to wait for approval from our Ministry of Commerce before they can carry out such acquisitions and mergers.

If people do business in their own homes, they must obtain approval from our Ministry of Commerce.

Otherwise, no matter it is an acquisition worth tens of billions, as long as we don't approve it, it won't be possible.

Doesn’t it sound very fantasy, and does it feel like you’ve learned a lot?” the reporter said to the other party in a joking tone.

"What don't you understand about this? The reason why they need approval from our Ministry of Commerce is because they have huge interests in us.

If they are determined to give up this huge market of ours.

People don't care whether you want to approve it or not, it still needs to be acquired, merged and merged.

In the final analysis, I am afraid that you will use the name of monopoly to attack him.

If he was fined more than a billion dollars every three days, he would have no choice but to exit the market obediently.

In order to avoid such a sky-high fine, we naturally need our permission." Listening to the other party's teasing tone, this man was actually able to say something.

"Since you understand the rules of the big business game, you should also understand them.

As long as you want to enter the other party's market, to put it bluntly, you want to make money on the other party's territory, then you have to obey the other party's rules of the game.

Just like we ban wifi modules now, Intel, Apple, IBM, Nokia, and Motorola still do not obediently comply.

Unless they don't want to do business with us anymore.

In the same way, if the Minion Company refuses to sell related accessories to these companies, these companies will definitely not allow your products to be sold on their territory.

If it really comes to this point, then any product launched by the Minion Company will only be able to circulate in our domestic market." Although the truth is not so pleasant, the reality is so cruel.

Even if you are doing ordinary business, you must follow the underlying rules of the game.

After hearing this, Su An looked back at these people.

For Su An, selling electronic accessories is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is some patents that I will touch in the future.

For example, Intel CPU’s x86 patent!

For example, I have used the ARM architecture patent on my Minions mobile phone.

Because the version he was using was more than ten years ahead of its time, Su An directly changed the name and packaged it to apply for a patent.

Strictly speaking, the arm architecture I use is not the same species as the arm architecture of the current time and space.

Moreover, even if it is exactly the same thing, it may not be able to obtain an international patent.

In the final analysis, as long as there is sufficient exchange of benefits.
