Chapter 16: The East Window Incident

After Feng Jianxiong said goodbye to Yu Meiqin, he followed the contact information provided by Mr. Qiu and found the office of Professor Liu Yuanming, the most authoritative in the field of intellectual property in the law school.

He straightened his shirt and changed his expression to a modest expression before knocking on the office door.

"Is Professor Liu here?"

"Please come in. A slightly dignified middle-aged male voice replied.

Feng Jianxiong went in without being humble or arrogant, and saw a forty-year-old man with somewhat sunken cheekbones and a bald hairline on his forehead, who was Liu Yuanming.

Feng Jianxiong said hello first, explaining that Qiu Xue recommended him to come. Then he roughly took out a few questions and asked for advice, which was almost a set - as for the means used, it was nothing more than the same trick he had just used to convince Qiu Xue. Take some cases and ask each other for advice, one is to establish oneself as "diligent and studious".

As for the content of the case mentioned by Feng Jianxiong, I will not repeat it - in short, it is more dramatic and more valuable for legal research than the comparison of Sony and Microsoft's counter-sue consumer case. Even if the specific details are written, the officials will not be able to understand them.

Professor Liu was quite disdainful at first, but his expression became solemn when he listened to it, similar to Qiu Xue's reaction just now. Obviously, he realized that behind the questions that Feng Jianxiong casually asked, there was a good blind spot in the paper material.

In this way, Professor Liu became kind to Feng Jianxiong.

Feng Jianxiong saw that the heat was almost over, so he began to ask about today's business side by side.

"Professor Liu, I am always very interested in intellectual property law. In the summer before the start of the semester, I diligently studied the Patent Law, the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Patent Law, and the Patent Examination Guide.

Recently, based on the cases of my predecessors that I found in the SOOPAT database, I practiced writing some documents that do not necessarily have economic value, but can be made up in accordance with the law.

But because I don't have the qualifications and want to verify my heat, there is no suitable channel for me to really pass the audit of the State Intellectual Property Office. I think you're the best at this in our hospital, so I wonder if you can give it a chance?"

Feng Jianxiong's words were quite tactful, but he believed that Professor Liu could understand the meaning behind it.

His main purpose today is to try to see if Professor Liu's intellectual property firm, which is also an outsider, collects "junk patents for mixed titles" in batches. If the other party accepts it, then Feng Jianxiong doesn't mind spending some spare time, earning a little money, and solving the embarrassment of his life first.

Patents are very difficult to do in the eyes of many ordinary people, but in the eyes of professionals who understand the law and can exploit loopholes, it is simply a random arrangement and combination of what is required -

Note that this brush relies on insight to search for loopholes in the permutations and combinations of novelty and inventive step of a certain type of patent in the existing patent pool, and then fill in the gaps.

is not like those writers who are reborn and are copied pigs, and there is an essential difference in IQ between the two.

Only mentally handicapped pigs profit from the lowly skill of "memorization".

Of course, the patents that have been brushed out in this way only take advantage of the loopholes of legal review, and in fact most of them have no market economic value - that is, they cannot really use this theoretically innovative thing to produce and make money.

But it doesn't matter, because Huaxia has the largest and most bureaucratic "job title" evaluation system in the world.

There are tens of millions of engineers who need to be rated with intermediate titles, and millions of people who need to be rated with senior titles, all of whom need to be evaluated by hard indicators such as "X number of utility models" and "X number of inventions" to make up data.

Therefore, those junk patents that fill the national patent database are used as "professional title warehouses". The agent of many patent agencies will have a related account that needs to make up the title, and will come to buy the authorship of this spicy chicken patent together (of course, before filing the application with the State Intellectual Property Office).

Generally, a utility model is a few thousand yuan, and an invention is twenty or thirty thousand, and it is sold regardless of quality.

When Professor Liu first heard what Feng Jianxiong meant, his face was incredulous.

"Isn't this kid a freshman? How can he understand this kind of twists and turns in the industry so well? I really don't have any sense of privacy when talking about cooperation with this kind of person. Professor Liu was slightly unhappy in his head, and subconsciously felt that he was quite uncomfortable even holding the professor's shelf in front of Feng Jianxiong.

And on the other hand, he really doesn't have many redundant resources to ask Feng Jianxiong to help.

So he thought about it for a while and politely refused: "This classmate, I don't know where you asked about the rules of this industry. But there are indeed fewer opportunities for me to do this kind of thing - the situation of our school, as you know, is that the traditional liberal arts are strong, the science and engineering are too weak, and there are very few cooperative scientific research enterprises.

Professors, especially liberal arts professors, only rely on papers to evaluate their titles, not professor-level senior engineers, and they have to make up the number of inventions. So, this little business relationship on my side, they are saturated by themselves, I hope you understand. ”

Professor Liu felt that he had explained so much, which had already given Feng Jianxiong a lot of face. If Qiu Xue hadn't said good things to him, and this student worked really hard and could provide him with essay materials to inspire, he wouldn't have talked so much nonsense with a freshman.

Feng Jianxiong was naturally a little disappointed, but he knew that what the other party said was also the truth.

I didn't think about the difficulties when I did it myself.

When he opened a law firm and an intellectual property agency in his later life, he cooperated with many R&D-oriented corporate clients, and this kind of business was naturally in high demand. But now that a strong liberal arts school is mixed, the new problem of "sluggish market" naturally has to be faced.

"I see...... Thank you. But Professor Liu, I think you may have misunderstood, in fact, I don't plan to write often, I just want to practice my hands to confirm my ability. Although he was disappointed, he still finished the scene calmly.

After all, he came in the name of "asking for advice" at the beginning, even if the other party did not cooperate, Feng Jianxiong would at least hand over one or two "hands-on exercises" to Professor Liu to bring back the lie.

If the other party says that he will not do this business, he will not even hand in the "homework" of "seeking justice", then it will be too embarrassing.

Professor Liu bowed his head slightly when he heard this, and said in his heart that this kid is really safe and does not leak. If the cooperation is not successful, you have to finish the scene.

He felt a little unbearable in his heart, and rarely opened the skylight and said something bright: "Classmate Feng, with all due respect, are you short of money? If that's the case, it's still okay for me to leave you two or three copies of the work for practice every semester." In addition, in your opinion, don't you want to publish more papers and earn some journal manuscript fees?"

Feng Jianxiong knew that Professor Liu was extending an olive branch, as long as he could write and help him "underwrite" two or three patents every semester, at least a few thousand yuan of hard work could still be earned. For Feng Jianxiong, who is currently in financial distress, it is already a comfort.

And what Feng Jianxiong has to pay may only be one or two weeks of spare time.

It's a pity that this amount can't run, and it takes a certain period to collect the money.

"Then thank you, Professor Liu, I really can't write that thing about the paper. I'm interested in practice, but if you have some academic ideas that you would like to ask for, I would like to ask you for advice. ”

Professor Liu's eyes lit up and he smiled kindly: "Of course." ”

Someone provides the perspective and material of the paper, even if it is not ghostwritten and does not share the spoils, that is a good thing.

Some of Professor Liu's subordinates are graduate students, and they can help him do manual work according to his ideas.

"Then I'll take my leave. Feng Jianxiong said, leaving Professor Liu's office and helping him close the door.

He was about to go back to his dormitory, but he didn't expect to meet a few people in the corridor of the office building.

Wang Daoyi, the president of the student union of the college, has Weng Dechen and Yu Meiqin behind him, and several other soy sauce players, including his roommate Xu Ming, who has a drooping head.

When the group saw Feng Jianxiong come out, their eyes immediately lit up, obviously they were looking for him.

Wang Daoyi's face was not very good-looking, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Feng Jianxiong, what have you been doing lately?" I heard Teacher Qiu say, you just found Professor Liu?"

Weng Dechen's expression was a little happy, and Yu Meiqin's expression was complicated.
