New York City's Upper East Side is on the right side of Central Park, and Madison Avenue is home to famous luxury boutiques and women's clothing stores, designer brands, and shopping malls.

However, Su Jingzhen and the others are not going to a place as busy as Madison Avenue now, but on the side of First Avenue, away from Central Park, near the East River.

It's nowhere near as bustling as Fifth Avenue or Wall Street in Downtown, but it's cheaper than some small companies renting offices here.

"Welcome, Ms. Yuan, and welcome, handsome gentleman." Walking out of the elevator on the sixteenth floor, the receptionist at the front desk immediately stood up with a smile and welcomed the guests.

Since Joanna had visited, the lady at the front desk remembered her name, and as for Su Jingzhen, it was not wrong to call her a handsome gentleman.

"Hello Jenny, I've come to Mr. Wellington." Joanna also smiled professionally and greeted the ordinary-looking front desk lady.

"Mr. Wellington is already waiting for you in the conference room, please come with me.

Jenny, the front desk lady, walked out of her office and led two guests to the small company's conference room.

"See you again, Mr. Wellington." Pushing the door in, Joanna was the first to say hello to the tall bearded man.

"Oh, dear Joanna, you're getting prettier, uh, this is ......" The bearded Wellington was about to tease Joanna a few words, when he suddenly noticed that there was a stranger behind her, and immediately stopped what he said, waiting for Joanna's introduction.

"This is the patron of this investigation, Stephen Sue, you can call him Sue according to the custom of the East." Joanna took two steps to the side, gave up her seat, and then introduced Su Jingzhen to the Mr. Wellington.

"Hello, Mr. Su, it seems that you and Joanna are of the same race? When I wasn't familiar with her before, I always called her Miss Yuan. Wellington is very good at talking, and he has already expressed a variety of meanings in one sentence, which not only explains that he and Joanna are very familiar with each other, so the ridicule just now is only a joke between acquaintances, but also shows his understanding of oriental culture.

"You're so polite, just call me Su, my friends call me that." Su Jingzhen just responded politely, and was not particularly enthusiastic.

"We're in a hurry this time, so I won't say more kind words, what about the information?" Joanna gestured to Su Jingzhen, sat at the round table in the conference room, and immediately entered the working state.

"Wait a minute." Wellington also sensed the customer's anxious and anxious mood, and immediately came to the door of the conference room, and directly pulled his throat: "Lance, bring the information I just said, and ask Jenny to make coffee by the way." ”

"Uh, you two wait a minute, and then, coffee, okay?" Wellington shouted and sat back in his seat, unbuttoning his suit jacket.

Su Jingzhen shrugged her shoulders and motioned to Wellington to ask Joanna, Joanna is here to work, and she can drink it instantly, of course, there is no problem, after raising her hand, she said: "Mr. Wellington, can you give a brief introduction to the investigation of this mobile air conditioner now?" ”

"Of course, this is no problem, according to our data, the only company in the world that has mobile air conditioners is the Italian company De'Longhi.

This is a company specializing in the production of small household appliances, the main production is the coffee machine we usually use, fully automatic, pump pressure, drip filtration, steam, the whole series can be produced, and the scale is quite large.

In addition, they also produced ovens, heating equipment, and other small appliances, and in '86, they developed a portable ready-to-use air conditioner, which is what you call a mobile air conditioner.

We checked the archives of the patent office and found their patent application projects, mainly focusing on shape design and structural design, but because the market for this thing is not large, and because the technology cannot solve the problem of noise, there are not too many manufacturers to imitate, so other companies apply for related patents is relatively small. ”

As Wellington spoke, there was a knock on the door, and a young man walked in, holding two folders.

"Hello everyone, my name is Lance, the person in charge of this investigation, and I have brought you some information." The young man named Lance began to speak as soon as he entered, not paying much attention to whether he interrupted the conversation.

Wellington smiled stiffly at Joanna, then motioned for Lance to hand out the information he was holding.

Flipping through the documents handed over by Lance, Su Jingzhen looked at them page by page, which mainly introduced the Delong company that Wellington had just said, and then the patent catalog in the patent office.

After handing out the materials, Lance handed one of the folders to Wellington and sat down next to him.

Wellington took a deep breath and continued to explain the situation to Joanna and Su Jingzhen.

"After we got the patent catalog, we found some engineers who were familiar with the area, as well as some lawyers in patent cases.

After research, everyone said that the patent applied by Delong did not create a patent trap, but directly registered the patent for this portable installation and ready-to-use air conditioner, and then left it alone.

We judge that this should be related to the very popular wall-mounted air conditioner, after all, everyone can predict that the future air conditioner will definitely be wall-mounted and centrally controlled air conditioner-based.

And this trend is becoming more and more obvious, window air conditioning has declined, belongs to the backward technology, there is no value worth investing in. ”

Wellington looked at the folder and talked at length about the results of the company's investigation, and warned customers that the investment was not wise.

Joanna glanced at Su Jingzhen, saw that he was looking at the documents with his head down, and did not say anything, so he could only stand up by himself at this time, so he asked: "Then if we want to produce this product, can we bypass Delonghi's patent?" I hope that your investigation team will give me some advice. ”

"It should be no problem, when we checked the patents, we have found that there are other companies doing this, but they are all manufacturers, and they are not good at setting patent traps, and they have not built protection around their core technologies.

If the customer has such a need, we can cooperate to tackle this patent of De'Longhi, and I think we will soon be able to come up with a set of ways to bypass this patent. Of course, Wellington would not say that his company was not good at this time, and directly boasted about Haikou, saying that all this was not a problem.

At this time, Su Jingzhen suddenly raised his head and asked, "Then, what about the cost?" ”
