"Xiaoyuan plans to enter the field of high-end medical equipment?" Tang Wan keenly grasped the unfinished meaning of Liang Yuan's words.

There was no need to hide it from Tang Wan, Liang Yuan nodded.

"This matter depends on the situation of my mother, under the premise that magnesium diboride can be used, once GM dies to the end, I plan to cooperate with Siemens in Germany to enter the medical field in advance. ”

"Yuanjia has an accumulation in this area, how come Uncle Ning has never heard of it. Ning Lei asked curiously.

"Yuanjia doesn't, but Dongda does, and the parents of my junior class are mainly engaged in this business, but they are limited to the limited domestic computer processing capacity, and the system they are developing is built on the basis of foreign advanced hardware."

"In the past two years, Hong Kong base power collector from scratch, in the processor has made great progress, now the next generation of processor C3 has entered the fast lane, as long as C3 is successfully offline, there is no technical difficulty in transplanting the system to C3. ”

"Can Dongda open an MRI? Why has Aunt Ning never heard of it?"

"Some time ago, the old man at home did a routine physical examination in the 3O1 hospital, and sighed that foreign equipment is advanced, and I don't know how many years it will take our country to catch up. Tang Wan's tone was half a step higher.

The 3O1 Hospital of the Republic is a local name, that is, the General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army, which is very familiar to the people of the whole country, and is responsible for the medical care of the Party Central Committee of the Republic, the Central Military Commission, the senior commanders and fighters of the People's Liberation Army, and the revolutionaries of the older generation.

"The project under research at the University of Tokyo is cT, but there are many similarities between cT equipment and nuclear magnetic resonance equipment, and I don't hide it from Uncle Ning and Aunt Ning, if the premise we set up is true, as far as my personal wishes are concerned, I tend to cooperate with Siemens and use the new guide technology to exchange for other core technologies of cT and NMR equipment in the hands of Siemens. ”

"After the technology exchange with Siemens, Yuanjia and Siemens can fully establish a patent association in the nuclear magnetic resonance industry after Yuanjia enters the threshold of high-end medical equipment. The current Philips of the Netherlands, GE of the United States, Toshiba of Japan, and Shimadzu have all become peripheral workers. ”

Liang Yuan came up with a large number of explanations of terms that were quite novel in the republic.

Patent pools, also known as patent pools in the West, have a very wide range of applications in capitalist society, and are also a legal weapon for large Western industrial groups to escape anti-monopoly charges. In order to maximize economic returns, patent associations are often combined with technical standards, and the half-bottled media of the Republic of the New Century and the vaunted first-class enterprises to make standards are simply taken out of context. Bullshit.

To be precise, it should be a new business model for first-class enterprises to do standards, and the specific process should be technology patenting, patent standardization, and standard internationalization, and in the promotion of standardization, standards are often operated in the form of patent associations.

Taking the MPEG-2 compression standard, which has just been born in the computer field as an example, the MPEG-2 patent joint venture brings together the technology of many universities or enterprises, including the University of California, Philips, Toshiba, Sony, France Telecomm, Fujitsu, Canon, etc.

Procedurally. First, the above-mentioned right holders will license the patents related to the implementation of the mpeg-2 standard to mpegLa, that is, the patent consortium that implements the authorization of the mpeg-2 standard, and it will exclusively provide non-discriminatory, one-stop licensing of the core patents of mpeg-2 to users around the world, and be responsible for distributing the patent licensing revenue.

In the MPEG-2 patent pool, the patents are divided into "essential patents" and "related patents". Essential patents refer to technologies that constitute the basic complementarity of MPEG-2, while "related patents" refer to improved patents based on existing essential patents.

In general, patents that are easier to replace are classified as ordinary patents, usually free of charge, and the contributor to the patent does not receive royalty income.

Essential patents, on the other hand, are completely different. Even if they are members of the Consortium, they must pay the contributors of the essential patents in return for the royalties agreed in advance.

In patent pooling, the competition between essential patents and ordinary patents is quite fierce, and the simple technical superiority and inferiority do not occupy a monopoly position in this game, and the real research strength of the enterprise occupies a decisive position in this kind of hand-to-hand combat.

If one company has the ability to circumvent another company's very advanced technology with technology that is not so advanced, and the other company cannot do this, then the company that cannot circumvent it no matter how advanced the technology is. can only be relegated to the position of ordinary patents.

Taking Liang Yuan's plan as an example, if the communication with GE fails, Yuanjia will take advantage of the time advantage of the first magnesium diboride producer to register garbage patents around the related processing technology of magnesium diboride, such as the registration of a certain element patent for mixed quantitative ingredients, micropowder processing technology, etc., to block the innovation path of other companies from the process flow and consolidate its position as an essential patent in the patent alliance.

After the establishment of a patent alliance with Siemens. The complete patent chain of nuclear magnetic resonance has been established, and other companies can only choose to join if they do not want to be eliminated by market competition, so Yuanjia, which has essential patents in hand, whether it is producing nuclear magnetic resonance equipment by itself or focusing on improving the conductivity of magnesium diboride, is all in progress. At the very least, when money is tight, Yuanjia can find a reason to increase the authorization fee for essential patents.

This kind of full-set, dynamic real-time game never stops, which is the whole step of first-class enterprises to do standards.

Liang Yuan made a long speech, and Ning Lei and Tang Wan listened to it dizzily.

"Does Xiaoyuan do MRI or cT, and what device is the conduction applied to?" Tang Wan asked a little confused.

In the field of high-end medical equipment, cT and nuclear magnetic resonance technology have great versatility, although the working principles of the two are very different, but the collation of the number of data collected by the detection system is in the same vein.

The core of cT technology can be divided into two major systems: hardware and software, the hardware is represented by X-ray raw tube, detector, slip ring technology, and high-performance computer workstation, and the software system is the algorithm of cT scanning and reconstruction technology.

The core technology of NMR is the lead coil, high-efficiency cooling system, magnetic field compensation system, high-performance computer workstation, and image number reconstruction algorithm.

Image reconstruction occupies an extremely important position in both cT equipment and nuclear magnetic resonance equipment, and the number detected by the machine must be reconstructed before it can be transformed into something that can be understood by humans or doctors.

An excellent image reconstruction algorithm that can improve the clarity of cT or MRI images by up to 2o%. This is undoubtedly the greatest help for the diagnostician.

The reason why Liang Yuan's Neusoft was able to break through the barriers of foreign cT equipment without providing any qualified hardware equipment in the local industry of the Republic of China was to rely on the world's unique image reconstruction algorithm.

At that time, Neusoft's breakthrough in the field of cT was quite beautiful, although Neusoft made global purchases of hardware equipment, but due to various reasons, the hardware subsystems that could be obtained in their hands were not the most advanced in the world at that time.

1998 year. When Neusoft's first cT came out, it took 58 seconds to reconstruct the image, while the contemporaneous GE cT only took 14 seconds.

At that time, the manager of Philips Medical China said meaningfully that Neusoft's products were born ten years late, and the implication was self-evident.

It only took Neusoft more than a year to change the image reconstruction time from 58 seconds to 4 seconds through guò optimization algorithms and computer performance. Then it changed hands and started a counteroffensive, and the share of foreign cT equipment in the medical market of the Republic fell from 1oo% to 4o% like a cliff, and the price of equipment also plunged in an all-round way, simply falling by two-thirds.

With Neusoft's large-scale conquest of the city, the price of cT scans in Republic Hospital has also dropped from thousands of yuan per time to several hundred yuan. It can be said that without the success of Neusoft, the people of the Republic can only pinch their noses and endure 3ooo yuan once in the 21st century and thousands of yuan once in the netbsp; In later generations, some technocratic idiots with smooth cerebral cortex scolded the republic's health care system, and then turned around and worshiped the large Western companies, so that the republican market was regarded by large foreign companies as a model country with a lot of money, stupid people, and a come.

Liang Yuan and Liang Pan both studied at the University of Tokyo, and they are familiar with the hardships and enthusiasm of Neusoft when they started their business, so it can be said that Liang Yuan was at the beginning of the establishment of Yuanjia. It is intended to expand the glory that Neusoft is destined to get, the layout of industrial processors, discrete devices, and the insistence on focusing on the guidance technology under all objections, all of which are greatly related to the future of Neusoft.

It's just that the battle of Ninglei Nansha disrupted Liang Yuan's step-by-step strategic concept, and Liang Yuan rushed into the unfamiliar aviation field with Yuanjia in this year, so that the entire group's funds were tilted towards aviation-related aspects, and Liang Yuan could only instruct the Shangri-La Foundation to slow down the pace of forming a joint venture with Dongda.

Liang Yuan gave Tang Wan and Ning Lei a detailed science popularization of cT and nuclear magnetic resonance. Then he said lazily: "Aunt Ning, McKinsey, who consulted United Airlines, submitted a report on the exhibition of high-end medical equipment in the next ten years for Yuanjia. ”

In the exhibition report, McKinsey predicts that with the rapid development of the semiconductor industry, the world's high-end medical equipment is about to enter a blowout period. In the next decade, the global market for cT and NMR alone will be close to 100 billion US dollars. ”

At present, there will be no more than ten companies in the world capable of producing two products, so it can be said that as long as Yuanjia is not at the bottom of the garbage, there is no doubt about grabbing one-tenth of this cake. ”

Liang Yuan straightened his back, stared at Ning Lei and said, "Uncle Ning, you said that Yuanjia gave up the vast market of at least one billion dollars a year, and it was not a very disadvantageous thing to exchange for that aviation-powered monocrystalline metal." ”

Liang Yuan wasted a lot of tongues and put up righteousness, in the final analysis, it is a sentence, don't look at magnesium diboride This thing can't be played without the organization, it is limited to changing single crystal alloys, and it does not guarantee the interests of Yuanjia, the young master will not play with you, it is to be able to maintain secrecy for half a year, even if it is made public, it is enough for Yuanjia to establish an advantageous technical monopoly in the high-end medical field.

When the time comes, the party and the state will go wherever they want to find a single crystal.

Tang Wan pondered for a while, and finally tasted Liang Yuan's voice, took out the sand cushion behind her and threw it directly on Liang Yuan's head, and said with a laugh: "You little bastard is really welcome, Aunt Ning was still thinking about the secrecy just now, and it is really difficult to deal with too many departments involved in this matter, and now listening to Xiaoyuan say this, it seems that it should be you Uncle Ning and them who have a headache." ”

In Tang Wan's words, if it is an exchange of monocrystalline metal, it can be said that there is no room for Yuanjia to speak, and a private enterprise is considered to be the oldest, even if Liang Yuan works and contributes to the successful exchange with GE, a pair of pennants and a certificate of merit are enough to hit someone.

But things are different when they have a choice, if Yuanjia is not satisfied, it is possible to take the initiative to spread the news, and when the time comes, which single crystal alloy will be changed, with Liang Yuan's current achievements accumulated at the top level, even if Yuanjia releases the news, it is not a big problem, after all, everything is Liang Yuanxian.
