Chapter 375 Steve Jobs Travels East
Jobs was dumbfounded!
What situation is this?
How come someone has applied for a patent?
Before that, they specifically searched for relevant patents, but there were none!
It's only been more than half a year, and you told me that the patent has already been applied for?
#B…
Jobs felt as if a basin of cold water was cooling him from head to toe.
"Christie, what's going on?"
"Also, who is the patent registrant?"
Jobs asked.
This matter is too serious.
It is so serious that it may even affect the follow-up of the [Purple] plan.
Christie quickly said: "The relevant patents were registered half a year ago, just after we inquired about the relevant patents, the subject of the patent registration was... Blue Star Electronics!
When Jobs heard the words Blue Star Electronics, he almost lost his breath.
He cursed in his heart.
Why is there Blue Star Electronics everywhere! "547"
Previously, Intel announced that the semiconductor manufacturing process had reached 65 nanometers, but Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. jumped out and said that it had reached 45 nanometers. In the end, the truth was that Semiconductor Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.'s 45-nanometer technology was provided by Blue Star Electronics.
At that time, Jobs even laughed at Intel. He was obviously the leader in the semiconductor field, but he was surpassed by an unknown company that had only been established for two or three years without making any noise.
Even in order to surpass them again, they even pulled a group of semiconductor companies to form the Semiconductor Alliance, which simply made Steve Jobs laugh out loud.
As a result, Jobs can no longer laugh.
Because this similar scene happened to me.
We just made a breakthrough in multi-touch technology, but you told me that Blue Star Electronics has registered the relevant patents.
"Fake!"
Jobs couldn't help but curse.
Christie said cautiously: "Boss, there is also some very bad news."
"Don't tell me it's still related to Blue Star Electronics!" Jobs looked up and said with a glare.
Christie nodded and said: "We also found out that some of the technologies we are conquering have also been patented by Blue Star Electronics. In terms of process design, some of our designs have also been patented by Blue Star Electronics... …”
Jobs was completely stunned by these words.
What?
Not only multi-touch, but also other patents?
Jobs felt a breath of cold air rushing straight to the sky.
He felt a deep chill, the chill coming from Blue Star Electronics.
What is Blue Star Electronics doing?
Although Blue Star Electronics also makes mobile phones, Jobs never thought about smartphones because Blue Star Electronics simply did not have the technical strength.
Even if Blue Star Electronics makes a smartphone, it will never be able to make a smartphone that redefines smartphones like their secretly planned [Purple] project.
However, this is the most impossible thing, but it makes Jobs feel cold.
Because the patents registered by Blue Star Electronics all illustrate one thing: Blue Star Electronics makes smartphones, and it does it like crazy, redefining smartphones as smartphones!
How can it be?
"Meeting! Notify everyone of the meeting!"
Jobs yelled.
This matter is too serious.
If Blue Star Electronics has the same idea as them, it means that in this area, they are already far behind Blue Star Electronics.
It seems that from the moment Blue Star Electronics was established, Lu Yi was aiming for this goal.
And their fruit company is likely to become a loser and a foil in this invisible competition.
And they have invested 150 million meters in this project.
If it fails, all their early investment will be in vain.
Even if the fruit company is not short of the 150 million meters of gold, Jobs still feels heartache.
Blue Star Electronics, which had never taken it seriously or looked at it, turned into an evil dragon without knowing it.
Jobs felt incredible.
This meeting lasted for a full three hours, and the entire senior management of the fruit company involved in the [Purple] project fell silent.
It's a bit hard for them to accept.
For this project, they not only have to solve technical problems, but also work more than 80 hours a week. The biggest pressure is that they cannot disclose their work content to anyone.
When traveling on a business trip, you must disguise yourself as an employee of another company and never let the other party discover that you are from Fruit.
The circuit diagrams and industrial design drawings provided to some suppliers are also fake to prevent the leakage of confidentiality.
The whole job is like being a thief.
result.
Watching each technology being conquered, Ai Kuang continued to improve it, and now he told them that in some technologies, they were blocked by Blue Star Electronics, which was also carrying out a secret similar to the [Purple] Project. plan, and the schedule is ahead of theirs, the Ai Crazy Project is likely to fail as a result.
unacceptable!
However, what if you can't accept it?
People are indeed faster than them.
The patent registrations are the best proof...
In the office.
Jobs frowned.
He suddenly remembered the joint venture between Blue Star Electronics and Corning last year to build a factory.
Looking back now, Blue Star Electronics' ambitions were almost right in front of him.
But he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, thinking it was just an ordinary business cooperation.
Looking back now, Blue Star Electronics is announcing to the outside world that Blue Star Electronics is going to make a smartphone that redefines smartphones.
Of course.
Even now, he should be the only one who sees it.
Because the Love Crazy Project also requires Corning’s Diamond Glass.
"Hey, it seems I have to go to Su City, the Dragon Country!"
Jobs sighed, and then asked his assistant to book a ticket to Sioux City, the Dragon Kingdom.
The investment in the Ai Feng project is so large that we cannot stop it just because of this.
The worst case scenario is to take money from Blue Star Electronics to buy technology patent licenses.
Two days later.
Jobs got off the plane at Sioux City International Airport. He scanned the surroundings except the terminal building and sighed: "I never thought that one day I would set foot on this mysterious country in the East and come here to ask for help to ensure the smooth birth of new products. .....”
After a detailed search of the patent database, Jobs and the others discovered how many patents Blue Star Electronics had applied for and registered in the past few years.
Not much else to say.
Let’s talk about things related to smartphones.
Blue Star Electronics not only holds multi-touch patents, but also has dozens of related patents, all of which are urgently needed by Fruit.
It can even be said that if the fruit company does not get the patent authorization from Blue Star Electronics, Ai Feng 1.9 will basically be difficult to give birth to.
Even if it is possible to find another way, the most perfect technology and industrial design patents are controlled by Blue Star Electronics. If these are abandoned, Jobs believes that Love Crazy will become a failure like Rockr before it.
In fact, Fruit Company entered the mobile phone market in 2005 and cooperated with Motorola to launch an iTunes mobile phone, Motorola-Rockr, which integrated mobile and music.
However, this mobile phone was laughed out of the media after it was launched on the market. It was only launched last year and has been completely ignored this year.
It was precisely because of the failure of the Rockr project that Jobs launched the Crazy Mobile Phone Project code-named [Purple] [with the purpose of creating a smartphone that redefined smartphones.
result.
Now that the way forward is blocked by Blue Star Electronics' patent barriers, it makes Steve Jobs have the urge to go crazy. .
