Chapter 134 Patents

Author: Hell Cat God

The assassination of Lin Huaile by a gunman had a great impact.

Everyone knows that it was not long before he took the seat with Lian Sheng, and as soon as he took office, he started a war with the prince of Hongxing and captured Tsim Sha Tsui.

Regardless of whether the prince intended to retaliate, he has become the police's biggest suspect.

Not only that, but Liansheng Zhongle's subordinates were also staring at the prince, looking like he was avenging his former boss.

Of course, the police department is keeping a close eye on things now, and no one dares to cause trouble at the cusp of the storm.

However, Deng Fei still convened a meeting with many senior executives of Lian Sheng to discuss the next step. In an emergency, they had to choose an agent to sit in the hall.

No matter how reluctant Du Yu was, he still attended the meeting. For him, the time was not yet ripe for establishing a new alliance or withdrawing from the association, and he would have to wait for some time.

"Everyone is very sad about what happened to Ah Le this time, but He Liansheng still needs a new leader to lead everyone, but no matter who takes the position, he must find out the matter and avenge Ah Le." Deng Feiyan expressed his attitude concisely and comprehensively.

.

"I choose Big D. I have said before that when choosing a seat, you must choose the strongest one. Choose someone who is neither good nor bad but will be killed as soon as he makes some achievements." Kuan Bao said.

"How about I choose you? I've already told you that I'm too busy and have no interest in the seat." Du Yu said quickly, fearing that Liansheng's gang would really push him up.

"Since Big D is not interested, let's re-recommend candidates." Deng Fei said quickly.

In fact, his words were false. Others thought he was the prince, but he thought it was indeed Big D. He and A Le had previously conspired to send people to the factory building to cause trouble, preparing to bring Big D along with them. Unexpectedly, nothing happened at the construction site in the past few days, but A Le

Shot to death.

Deng Fei was worried that Big D was behind it, and he didn't want him to get the dragon's head stick this time.

"Then I choose to brag." Da Buhei said.

"I also choose to play chicken." Long Gen said.

"I choose Gao Lao." Old Guihu said.

"……."

Deng Fei saw that the candidates were mainly focused on Chuiji and Gao Lao, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Let's vote by a show of hands. I choose Chuiji."

Except for a few people, the vast majority of those who had the right to vote raised their hands and voted for the braggadocio.

"Then let's choose to brag." Du Yu said, and then he raised his hand to vote.

The remaining few who had a good relationship with Mr. Gao saw that the situation was over and no longer insisted on raising their hands in agreement.

In this way, just like in the movie, he still took the seat of this generation, but the original successor, Le Shao, became his predecessor.

"I'm sorry, I have too many things on my hands. Let me know next time when I choose to sit in a restaurant." Du Yu stood up and left before Chuiji could say anything.

Deng Fei looked embarrassed but didn't want to say anything more. Big D had such a good behavior last time, and now he is the most powerful in Le Shao Yi's death and Lian Sheng. It's hard for him to bear it when he breaks his skin with everyone in person.

After Du Yu left, the atmosphere with Liansheng became more relaxed.

Chuji came to the top and got the seat of the agent, but Deng Fei had said it first. He could only get the leading stick after avenging A Le.

Despite this, he was still very happy. With Deng Fei and others presiding over Le Shao, most of Le Shao's team was given over to him. This made his strength skyrocket and he became the most powerful person besides Lian Sheng Big D.

Du Yu didn't know how he wanted to avenge Le Shao. After leaving He Liansheng's door, he returned to Tsuen Wan to meet his guests.

The visitors this time are quite special. It can be said that they are another wave of people who were cheated by Du Yu. They are none other than Nintendo's president Hiroshi Yamauchi.

Nintendo invested in the electronic game industry in the late 1970s and concentrated on research and development for several years. It was preparing to develop and withdraw from the new product of Famicom. Unexpectedly, when they entered the advanced stage of research and were preparing to apply for a patent, they were told that Famicom-type game consoles had already been sold.

A company registered on Hong Kong Island has nearly a hundred related patents, which has formed a patent barrier.

When Hiroshi Yamauchi heard the news, his eyes darkened and he became furious on the spot. He cursed everyone under his command and asked people to investigate carefully to see if there were any leaks.

The result of all the hard work was naturally in vain, and the people under my command were horrified to discover that this company on Hong Kong Island called Xinghai Science and Technology had not only launched the red and white consoles for public sale, but also operated a novel electronic game called arcade.

.

Hiroshi Yamauchi wanted to know about this sudden competitor, so they asked someone to buy back the Famicom and game cartridges from Hong Kong Island.

After connecting to the TV and inserting the cassette, they came to the game interface. Nintendo's R&D department suddenly discovered that there were three games in it, "Chinese Rubik's Cube" and "Racing". There was also a name that made them feel like they were struck by lightning after seeing it. It turned out to be "Super Mario"

profound".

"Who can tell me what's going on? Forgetting the idea of ​​the Famicom, even the content of the cassette has to be sold by us? Is there any commercial espionage inside the company?" Hiroshi Yamauchi was furious again.

The social workers in the R&D department looked at each other and didn't know what to say. It was too much of a coincidence to say it was a coincidence, but it was impossible to say that someone had leaked the secret. The confidentiality agreement they all signed before joining the development team meant there was absolutely no problem of leaking the secret.

, not to mention that even if the secrets were leaked, they would be leaked to people like Hayao Nakayama of Sega. Who would give such trade secrets to an unknown company in Hong Kong Island?

Hiroshi Yamauchi investigated again, but still found nothing, so he began to study ways to bypass the other party's patent wall.

However, there must be a reason why the design of the Famicom is called a classic. It is simply impossible to surpass it at today's technological level, let alone the way Du Yu adopted it when registering the patent.

The way other people's roads are blocked leaves no room for them to exploit.

After research, Hiroshi Yamauchi could only do nothing. It seemed that if he wanted to release Nintendo's own red and white console, he would either have to pay patent fees to the company in Hong Kong or give up on this popular product.

Of course, he still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, that is, since the other party has never seen the world, he can buy all the patents with money. Although it will cost a lot of money, he can slowly make up for the losses from subsequent products once and for all.

Originally, Hiroshi Yamauchi wanted to send his managers to negotiate, but after getting to know Xinghai Science and Technology in depth, he changed his mind. The fact that the founder of Xinghai Science and Technology had a corporate background was quite tricky, so he decided to negotiate in person.

Before coming to Hong Kong Island, he collected information about Big D. The most common comments mentioned above were that he was impulsive, irritable, and acted based on personal emotions.

A sense of luck suddenly arose in Hiroshi Yamauchi's heart, and he felt that maybe he could really buy the patents and copyrights for the Famicom and even "Chinese Rubik's Cube" and "Super Mario".

After flying to Hong Kong Island with several assistants and making an appointment to meet Du Yu, the group couldn't wait to rush to the Xinghai Science and Technology Xinghai Science and Technology Innovation Product Experience Store in Tsuen Wan.

It's not that Du Yu was stingy and didn't build a company headquarters, but the factory building was still under construction and could only be used as a place to receive guests.

There are many benefits. Businessmen who come and go can go directly downstairs to experience the charm of arcade machines and red and white machines. Moreover, there is a queue of hundreds of meters of customers outside the store, which can also intuitively show the popularity of the products.

Hiroshi Yamauchi felt pain in his heart when he saw this. He felt that such a scene should have appeared in Akihabara, not in Tsuen Wan on Hong Kong Island.

When they came to the living room, a beautiful lady in a suit and skirt brought them tea and asked them to wait for a while.

At this time, Du Yu, dressed in formal attire, came to the living room to meet them.

"This is Mr. Hiroshi Yamauchi, the president of Nintendo," the translator said.

"Welcome to Xinghai Science and Technology." Du Yu was very polite. He knew very well that he was here to give him money on this small day, and for the sake of money, he would give him face.

"This is Mr. Liang, the president of Xinghai Science and Technology." The translator introduced.

"Hello." Yamauchi Putong was also very polite.

After the two shook hands and exchanged a few pleasantries, they got down to business. Of course, their conversation was translated for them by professional simultaneous interpreters.

"Mr. Liang, I came to Xinghai Science and Technology this time to talk to you about patents," said Hiroshi Yamauchi.

"Mr. Yamauchi, please speak." Du Yu said.

"Mr. Liang, I wonder if you are interested in selling the patent for the Famicom?" Hiroshi Yamauchi asked.

Du Yu smiled slightly and said: "Who would sell hens that lay eggs? If Mr. Yamauchi had reported this idea, I'm afraid he would be disappointed."

"Isn't it a bit arbitrary for Mr. Liang to refuse before he even heard the price I offered?" said Hiroshi Yamauchi.

"Oh, how much does Mr. Yamauchi plan to pay?" Du Yu asked.

"20 million Dao Le, is this price sincere enough?" Hiroshi Yamauchi asked. In fact, he originally planned to pay 10 million, but after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and offered this sky-high price. Since he wanted to shock the other party, he had to pay.

A shocking price.
