Fu Guangzheng had only left for a few days, and he came back to Beijing to look for Feng Yu.
"Why are you here again?" Feng Yu asked angrily.
Fu Guangzheng was puzzled. How did I offend you? You wanted me to set up a sales team, and I had already set it up. I had also started market research. I was also in charge of the market research in China.
You wanted me to acquire the movie and music copyrights. I had not only started in Hong Kong, but I had also contacted companies in China and Europe. It had only been a few days, and I was so efficient. Why are you still giving me this cold shoulder?
"Are you in a bad mood or what?"
Fu Guangzheng did not know that today was the weekend, and Feng Yu had an appointment with Li Na. Li Na's period would be coming next week, and there was nothing much they could do even if they asked each other out. In the end, Li Na had agreed because Fu Guangzheng was here, and Feng Yu had no choice but to reject the appointment. How could he be in a good mood?
Feng Yu waved his hand: "I'm just in a bad mood. It must not be good news for you to be here."
Feng Yu pushed the blame to Fu Guangzheng. He would never admit that it was his fault.
Fu Guangzheng smiled bitterly: "It is not good news for me to be here!"
F * ck, the good news never came, but the bad news did. Damn, it was really bad news.
All the businesses that Feng Yu had worked with Fu Guangzheng were his most profitable businesses. Feng Yu does not want any problems to happen to any of them.
"What bad news?" Feng Yu asked.
"Our company is being sued. Hmmm, Tai Hua Trading might also be sued!"
Huh? Tai Hua Trading will be sued? Also, Fu Guangzheng's sales company in Hong Kong. That means there was a problem with the humidifiers or bladeless fans?
"Is it the humidifiers or bladeless fans? Is there a problem with the quality?" Feng Yu frowned. These two products had been used for more than 20 years in his previous life, and there were no problems. How come there was a problem so quickly when it came to him? The R&D staff of the Aviation Factory must be negligent. He must go back and look for them!
"It is not the quality. They are suing us for monopolizing the market!"
F * ck, monopoly?!
Feng Yu was depressed. He had applied for a patent to prevent others from imitating it and monopolizing the profits. However, he had forgotten that in the West, monopoly was against the law.
"Will we lose? How much is the fine? "Feng Yu asked listlessly.
Fu Guangzheng was curious. In Hua Xia, there was no such thing as monopoly, and there were no laws against it. How did Feng Yu accept it? How did he know that the western countries would punish monopolies with fines?
"Who said we would lose? Not only we will not lose, we will also make use of this opportunity to become famous! "Fu Guangzheng said proudly.
Feng Yu's popularity was always up and down. How could he win a monopoly lawsuit?
In Feng Yu's previous life, Microsoft had lost an antitrust lawsuit, and many international companies and Fortune 500 companies were fined heavily. Usually, when someone files a lawsuit, there must be substantial evidence. He had never heard of anyone winning a monopoly lawsuit.
"We can win? Are they stupid? Why are they suing us? "Feng Yu was elated.
Fu Guangzheng almost choked on his tea. Feng Yu's attitude had changed too fast.
"The antitrust statute provides for several circumstances constituting a monopoly: the purchase and control of the stock of other firms under circumstances that would result in the weakening of competition; the establishment of interlocking boards of directors among competing firms, the act of several firms engaged in interstate commerce serving as directors of each other; the act of tying contracts, the act of a firm insisting that buyers also buy the tying goods when they supply a primary good; the act of price discrimination, the act of selling the same good to different buyers at different prices so as to exclude competitors; business activities that may substantially weaken competition or tend to establish a monopoly..."
Feng Yu listened carefully. It seems that Wind and Rain's patent protection had allowed their products to have no competitors in the world, and this will form a monopoly.
But I'm still in the patent protection period ~ ~ patent protection, isn't it the same as a monopoly?
Feng Yu finally understood why many companies in his previous life had to exchange patents with other companies. This was to prevent themselves from being sued for monopolizing the market.
You claim that I have monopolized the technologies, but I had sold the technologies to others, and they are not producing them. Could it be that I have to sell the humidifier and bladeless fan technologies to others?
"It seems that we are included in this. Why do you say that we will win?" Feng Yu said with a bitter face. He was listless again.
"They are suing us for monopolizing the market because of the high prices of our technologies. But we did not push out competitors, manipulate the prices, and there are no tying sales contracts. In essence, we have only weakened the competitiveness of our opponents. We just need to authorize the patents to another company and let them sell their products to the European and US markets. This way, there will be no more problems. Also, they are suing us for monopolizing the market. This lawsuit will take at least a year and a half. We just need to introduce our new company's products to the European and US markets within this period, and we will win! "Fu Guangzheng explained.
Damn. What the hell is this? You want us to nurture a competitor for ourselves? Who was the one who set up this monopoly law? This is too much!
Feng Yu did not expect that his Wind and rain humidifiers had already swept the European and US markets. All the other companies that tried to enter this market had failed!
Luckily, he did not develop industrial humidifiers. If not, he would have been sued!
"Is there no other way?" Feng Yu still does not want to give up these profits. The overseas sales of the humidifiers and bladeless fans had brought him almost 30 million USD profits this year. As the market expands, the profits will increase. Even if the patent expires, with the brand's advantage, he will still be able to occupy the main market share and bring in high profits every year. Why should he give it to others?
I manufacture ultrasonic humidifiers, and you can sell electric humidifiers, or electrode humidifiers, cold mist humidifiers, evaporative humidifiers, etc. I did not monopolize the market.
I am selling bladeless fans, and you can sell normal electric fans or air conditioners. Why are you accusing me of monopolizing the market?
"Yes. Of course, there are other ways. We can let others pirate our products, and we will sue them for patent infringement to divert attention. For example, we can reveal some of our patents to our competitors and let them manufacture our products. After that, we will sue them for patent infringement. "
Feng Yu: "… …" What kind of stupid idea was this? He might as well nurture a competitor himself.
Feng Yu suddenly remembered YADU. In his previous life, Hua Xia was the biggest humidifier manufacturer. In this life, Feng Yu had snatched away the domestic humidifier market. Why can't YADU develop new products? The current leader of China's industrial humidifiers was still YADU.
Furthermore, the biggest humidifier manufacturer in Feng Yu's previous life was from the US. Did they not introduce any new products?
Since you all want to sue me for monopolizing the market, then I will really let you monopolize the market.
"Go and contact YADU. Tell them that we can cooperate with them!"
