Chapter 645 Patent Blockade

In the conference hall of the Solar Furnace Research Building.

Scientific researchers from all walks of life brainstormed to find a solution to this difficult problem.

After pondering for a while, Wang Jiuliang said, "If you replace the semiconductor parts with 14mm process, you can actually complete the solar furnace."

When he said this, he paused before continuing: "However, this is the semiconductor process of the previous generation. If it is to be replaced, the design drawings of the miniaturized solar furnace need to be revised, and the volume of the original plan may not be reached. The volume of the solar furnace should be increased by about 30%.”

After Fang Zhenguo listened carefully, he pondered: "The meaning of the headquarters is to try to complete the assembly of the solar furnace of the nuclear fusion power mothership within the planned time.

"The solar furnace is larger, which is acceptable. I have seen the power cabin of the nuclear fusion power mothership, and reserved a larger space than planned.

"Even if the size of the solar furnace is too large, you can try to modify the power cabin of the mothership, and these problems can be overcome.

"Besides semiconductor components, are there any other difficulties in the manufacture of solar furnaces?"

The person in charge of Dongdu Technology said: "Semiconductor components are only a hardware problem, and there may be a software problem that is difficult to solve. The EDA electronic design automation system of the Sun Furnace also has some patents of the White Eagle Country, and it is very difficult to solve. Difficult to bypass.

"If the White Eagle Country must block technology authorization, the EDA system may not be available. In that case, we need to find a substitute for the EDA system."

The hardware can be replaced by products of the previous generation process. The disadvantage is that the manufactured semiconductor components are larger in size and consume more power.

However, the power consumption of semiconductor components is not worth mentioning for a solar furnace, an energy engine that allows humans to fly to the stars.

Therefore, hardware problems can be overcome, but software problems are more troublesome.

Moreover, the solar furnace R&D team has always used the original EDA system. Even if a new replacement can be found, many low-level designs need to be reinvented.

This is very fatal for the research and development of solar furnaces, and it may take several years to start over.

After thinking about it for a while, Fang Zhenguo asked everyone present: "Everyone brainstorms and thinks about how to overcome the difficulties we are facing today. If you have an idea, you can talk about it, and a little idea is fine."

The incident this time was caused by White Eagle's intention to sanction Dongdu Technology.

Therefore, the person in charge of Dongdu Technology knows the difficulties here best, and has thought about various countermeasures.

He stood up, cleared his throat, and said, "At present, there are several solutions to the problem. The first one is to apply to the Planetary Defense Council for mandatory authorization.

"White Eagle wants to prohibit patent licensing and block the use of our company's hardware and software. It is difficult to bypass this blockade under the premise of respecting patent laws.

"The only possibility is to apply to the Planetary Defense Council for compulsory authorization. If the application is approved, the relevant patents can be directly used. But doing so will break the rules of patent laws around the world and may leave hidden dangers."

Da Liu pushed his glasses, and said indignantly, "Has Baiying ever respected the patent law? I heard that you filed a lawsuit with a company called Baiying last year. Is there such a thing? How was the result?"

The person in charge of Dongdu Science and Technology spread his hands helplessly and said: "There is indeed such a thing,

Our company has many patents in communication technology, and a White Eagle company did not pay patent royalties, and it did file a lawsuit. Unfortunately, we lost the case. "

"Cross the Pacific Ocean and go to the White Eagle to file a lawsuit. If you want to win, it will be a miracle." Fang Zhenguo thumped the table, apparently also very indignant.

"Since they don't pay for using our patents, why can't we use their patents? Leave them alone and use them directly." Eve snorted angrily.

"This matter has become a classic debate of whether a dog bites a man or not. It's not easy to handle." Fang Yuan spread his hands and commented.

The person in charge of Dongdu Technology shook his head and said: "This approach will not work. A certain White Eagle company does not pay patent fees. Strictly speaking, it is the problem of that company. We cannot do the same thing to other White Eagle companies. The company with semiconductor-related patents has not owed our company patent fees, so logically speaking, we need to respect the other party's patents."

"Then we can only apply to the Planetary Defense Council for compulsory authorization." Eve thinks this method is feasible.

Fang Zhenguo shook his head and said, "We can try, but the possibility of success is unlikely. Among the six member countries of the Planetary Defense Council, White Eagle plus three follower countries account for four seats. Basically, there is no possibility of passing the application."

The people present are all scientific researchers, who have devoted their entire lives to scientific research, and are not good at politicians.

Therefore, most of them are looking for solutions to problems from the technical side.

In addition to scientific research personnel, the theater headquarters is also actively looking for solutions.

To solve one thing, you can start from many aspects.

Researchers consider technical solutions, but in fact, sometimes this matter is not a technical problem at all.

After thinking for a while, Fang Zhenguo said: "If you can't get around it technically, you can solve the problem through negotiation. You don't have to worry too much, the headquarters will find a way."

"What can the headquarters do?" Wang Jiuliang asked.

"Our representative of the Planetary Defense Council is trying to communicate with the representative of the White Eagle side. If it can be resolved through negotiation, we will bear with it for the time being and get the solar furnace out first." Fang Zhenguo said so, but he was actually very upset in his heart , I really want to push those politicians in Baiying to the ground and step on them a few times.

However, now is not the time to tear up the face. The key is to get the solar furnace out first. As long as the solar furnace is built and assembled on the nuclear fusion power mothership, then the confidence will be enough.

In addition to Fang Zhenguo, another person in charge was sent by the theater headquarters, who took over the topic and said: "The news came from the headquarters just now, and our representatives communicated with the representatives of the White Eagle Fang, and have a preliminary understanding of the White Eagle Fang's situation. Require.

"The White Eagle Party insists on sanctioning Dongdu Technology, but it can independently authorize the research and development projects of the solar furnace, and all hardware and software related to the research and development projects of the solar furnace can be authorized for use."

Wang Jiuliang's eyes lit up when he heard the turn of events.

He spent his whole life researching controllable nuclear fusion technology, and he was about to successfully manufacture a solar furnace and assemble it on a nuclear fusion power mothership.

Naturally, it is hoped that this goal can be accomplished as soon as possible.

"However, White Eagle has made a request." The person in charge sent by the headquarters added.

"What request?" Wang Jiuliang asked hastily.

"White Eagle will take a stake in the solar furnace research and development project on the condition of sharing relevant semiconductor patents."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at each other in blank dismay.
