Chapter 1473 Domineering · Proud · Frustrated

"Patent is competitiveness!" This sentence is vividly reflected in Qualcomm.

Can you imagine that common technologies on mobile phones, including WiFi, mobile positioning, Bluetooth, flight mode, fast charging, automatic screen lock, etc., are patented by Qualcomm?

No one can ignore the close to 3,000 US patents and patent applications for CDMA and related technologies on Qualcomm's patent list.

As one of the largest mobile phone chip manufacturers in the world, Qualcomm has also mastered a large number of patents related to 3G and 4G mobile communications under development. The 4G technology is much higher than the four-star company that started to catch up with Qualcomm. One can imagine the future Qualcomm can obtain huge economic benefits through patent licensing and other methods.

Qualcomm started out as a small technology company, but now Qualcomm is a company with great potential to overwhelm the Intel giant.

Qualcomm's fortune is due to the CDMA patent. With the patent of CDMA, it acts as a patent troll and collects a lot of patent fees. Especially after the popularization of 3G, CDMA technology allows Qualcomm to collect 3G patent fees, which is also a cash cow for Qualcomm.

Even in the 4G era, Qualcomm will still charge CDMA technology patent fees. That is to say, in the mobile phone industry, all mobile phones compatible with CDMA technology must pay patent fees to Qualcomm.

Andy knows better than anyone else the penetration rate of smartphones in the world in the future and the size of the market. To put it bluntly, it's all money!

The term patent hooliganism was first proposed by Intel Corporation, which suffered patent claims in 2001. Patents were originally a means for companies to protect innovations, but sometimes they have indeed become lethal weapons for some rogue companies.

"Qualcomm's patents, in my opinion, are both wealth and power, and can control the power of an era!"

Andy said in a deep tone, while lifting the quilt, bent down to pick up the shirt from the carpet and began to wear it.

The red-faced Amanda hugged Andy's waist from behind, put her cheek on his back, and said with a charming smile: "Men, wealth and power are your favorites!"

"Hehe, wealth and power are not the most irresistible pussies for you women!" Andy laughed lightly, stretched out his hand and patted Amanda's little hand, then put on his pants and stood up, stretching out his hand to pinch the charming Amanda Da's chin smiled and said: "These powers must be in my hands. I don't care about being scolded by the patent trolls all over the world. The harder they scold, the more they will never leave me!"

"Don't be too happy. The anti-monopoly laws of various countries are not just a display. If they are really too ruthless, those companies are not lambs to be slaughtered. They will unite. I have read the information. In 2005, Qualcomm was defeated by Nokia, Ericsson, etc. , Texas Instruments and other six companies sued the EU on the grounds of high patent licensing fees and bundling sales to form a monopoly.

This lawsuit has not yet been resolved, and this may become the first problem you have to solve after you enter Qualcomm. "

Amanda, who had recovered, also reached out to pick up her dress, and began to put it on directly, without seeming to think about whether she was missing something.

"Help me pull..."

Andy reached out to help Amanda pull up the zipper on the back of the dress, and said nonchalantly: "Patents are a threshold they can't get around, and they can only compromise in the end. First-rate companies sell patents, second-rate companies make products, and third-rate companies sell patents." coolie.

Look at it, after I take over Qualcomm, several "patent walls" will be erected at Qualcomm's headquarters. Hang every patent certificate you have on the wall.

Let everyone see it as soon as they enter the door, and let the whole world know that every patent on the "patent wall" is Qualcomm's core asset and source of profit! "

Amanda wrapped her arms around Andy's neck with smiling eyes like crescent moons, stood on tiptoe and kissed Andy's chun, and said with a coquettish smile, "I like this kind of domineering!"

"Hehe, well, I've fed you, and I should go back to serve the other one." Andy said gently stroking her long hair.

"Humph!"

Amanda snorted in displeasure,

Just when he was about to complain, his complexion suddenly changed slightly, he punched Andy a little annoyed, then turned around and walked into the bathroom quickly, just now he felt a little life force quietly liu. . . . . .

Andy shrugged in confusion, thinking he had knocked over the vinegar pot again, checked the time, walked to the bathroom door and said, "I'm going back to the office first."

"Understood! I'll come right away..."

Hearing Amanda's impatient answer, Andy blinked, shook his head and muttered, walked out of the lounge, closed the door behind him, walked through the corridor, saw the little assistant standing up to greet him when he saw him coming, Push open the office door for him.

"Tori, you don't have to follow me when you return to Los Angeles this time. Stay here and help me collect information and report back at any time."

"what?!"

"Ah what!" Andy looked angrily at the reluctant little assistant, who looked so cute and pitiful, and laughed angrily: "I will leave this time for a little long, so I will leave you In order to help me keep an eye on this side, not to make you idle around!"

"Oh~" Hearing that his long-awaited long-term vacation with the big devil was in vain, Tori's expression collapsed, and after a grudging oh, he turned and left, even though he ran into Amanda head-on, They didn't bother.

"Huh? What's wrong with her? A bankrupt face..." Amanda frowned slightly with a rosy complexion. She didn't feel much ill at this heartless little assistant. After all, the little assistant was completely to her. It is non-threatening and harmless.

"It's nothing, just tell her to stay in New York." Andy didn't hide anything, but took off the coat from the hanger, unfolded it, and then took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Amanda.

"Let Christina Hendricks play the leading role, and you can arrange the rest."

Amanda, who was flipping through the folder, looked up at Andy jokingly, and said sarcastically, "You fucking despise me for being too young! When did you get out with that big bull?"

Andy rolled his eyes wildly. Women are really unreasonable creatures. Before he got it, he said he would introduce himself to try something new. Now it's better to turn his face and deny it.

"Isn't it cool?" Amanda sneered, reached out and grabbed Andy's tie, and asked viciously.

Andy curled his lips and shrugged, "It's okay, the main thing is that if conditions permit, I can try some more fun games. After all, I am blessed by nature, and I can't waste such good resources."

"You're such a bastard!" Amanda slapped Andy angrily, but she still heard something, so she didn't pester Christina any more. What kind of piss is that bastard Andy, and so is she. Xin knew it well, and wanted him not to cheat unless he was caught. Fortunately, his taste had been cultivated, and he wouldn't mess around with anything.

She knew that the men in the upper class liked the high-class women who could get whatever they wanted with money.

"Okay, let's not talk about it, I'll go back first, and I'll go back to Los Angeles the day after tomorrow. You should pay more attention to the things here. After the crew is formed, let them start filming immediately. Don't mess up the golden three episodes. Don't be stingy with the funds. " Andy bowed his head and kissed Amanda, and asked again.

"Understood, I've said it a hundred times, don't worry, I'll be the producer, and I'll keep an eye on it myself!" Amanda said after helping him straighten the crooked tie again, raising her eyebrows and giving him a reassuring expression .
