Chapter 91: Apple's Prosecution
Apple's stock price has risen, not without reason, in addition to the fact that Dream Technology wants to buy Apple, which has caused a large number of Mi shareholders to scramble to buy Apple shares.
If someone has a careful investigation, you will find that behind the skyrocketing stock price of Apple, there are many unknown funds, and the shadow of the Li Fund will be found among them.
If it weren't for the behind-the-scenes promotion of the Lee Foundation, there would not have been so many overseas banks that publicly stated that they would provide funds to Dream Technology.
After all, the Lee Fund has a variety of businesses around the world, and for the sake of financial security, the Lee Fund will not put its eggs in the same basket.
Because that will only artificially increase the capital risk of the Lee Fund, the best way to avoid the risk is to put the funds in multiple banks for effective custody.
Of course, this method is not the best way to avoid capital risks, and the best way is to have a bank that belongs to the Lee Fund Holdings, so as to hold the huge cash flow of the Lee Fund.
Li Xuan also understands this question that if a family or clan wants to pass on well, it is the best guarantee for the family to have a bank that belongs to the family or clan.
However, a bank is not so easy to establish, the banking system is not like an ordinary company, and Li Xuan does not want to only need a savings bank.
Because in Li Xuan's heart, there is only one bank, the owner of which integrates the issuance and printing of currency, it can be called a bank, otherwise it can only be called a bank-style financial service company.
That's why the current Li Foundation is fully capable of setting up a bank, and Li Xuan did not let Sophia set up, because if he wants to have the right to issue currency and print it. That can only be done by the central bank of a country.
The banks set up by the Lee Fund can only save money, that is, they want the public to absorb deposits, and do not have the ability to print and issue banknotes, unless the Lee Foundation can build a country.
It's not that Li Xuan hasn't thought about establishing a country, but it's like a castle in the air, without any guarantee, there are too many business families in this world that are more powerful than Li Xuan and have not become a country.
Li Xuan felt that he was not capable now, so Li Xuan gave up this idea that was not marginal at the moment......
"Bang"
"He's delusional that the apple is mine, it's my Jobs's, and there's no way he's going to split the apple," Jobs, who got the news, dropped the newspaper in his hand on the ground and looked at Cook.
"Cook told shareholders that I was going to explain to them the future of Apple, which is worth more than just $60 billion. They will regret selling their shares."
For the first time, Jobs expressed chagrin and regret that he was not able to control the absolute shares of Apple, which also led to the fact that Jobs would buy back Apple's shares whenever he had the opportunity in the future.
"Jobs. I've contacted all of Apple's shareholders and they all say they won't sell their shares. After pacifying Jobs, Cook continued: ,.
"What we're trying to solve now is, about the patent issue for Apple's latest product? How can you get a patent and get the product out of the lab. Otherwise, he would only be a test subject. Unable to bring to market to bring profits to the company. ”
After listening to Cook's words, Jobs's angry mood instantly became weak and sat on the sofa, Cook was right, if Apple can't get the patent.
Apple's next product to succeed the MP3 can only stay in the laboratory, becoming an experimental product, and it will not be able to make a profit for Apple just for appreciation.
At this time, Jobs knew that the patents held by Dream Technology were simply like establishing a patent barrier for this type of product that belonged to Dream Technology, and no one was allowed to enter this field.
In the face of the patent barriers of Dream Technology, Jobs didn't know how to speak, and at this time, Jobs regretted letting Cook go to China to buy the company.
It is also necessary to announce this news in a high-profile manner like Volkswagen at the time of acquisition, which undoubtedly puts Apple in a dilemma, and there is no possibility of advancing or retreating.
"Cook summoned all the people in the company's legal department and gave me a look at the patents of Dream Technology and Apple's patents for any suspicious loopholes."
Jobs, who thought about it for a while, became firm in his eyes, flashing with a divine light like a wolf.
Jobs was not a man who would easily throw in the towel, and since Dream Technology Group did not agree to Apple's acquisition, there is no way to get a patent now.
So for Apple's new products, we can only find a way to bring Dream Technology Group back to the negotiating table between the two sides, so that the two sides can return to negotiations.
And the difference and loopholes between the company's legal department and Dream Technology's patents are the opportunities for Jobs to turn around.
Since there is no way for the opponent to do so for the time being, then find the opponent's small mistake, and then amplify this small mistake wirelessly, so that it can threaten the opponent.
If Li Xuan was on the scene at this time, he would definitely be vigilant, because in addition to Jobs's brilliant honor, he also had a bad record.
"Okay, I'll go and tell me to go down."
"Cook asked them to come to my office with their materials, and I'm going to look for loopholes in those patents myself." ……
At the same time, without getting a response from Apple's invitation to Dream Technology Group to acquire Apple, Huang Zhang, who had nothing to do, except for holding some meetings in the hotel, was to take his employees around to enjoy the scenery, as if the acquisition of Apple had nothing to do with them.
Of course, Huang Zhang can't really be in front of this acquisition, as a dream technology group speculation, Huang Zhang has also made some efforts in private, and when his subordinates traveled, he also secretly visited Apple's shareholders with a few assistants.
But without exception, all of them rejected Huang Zhang. Do not agree to sell your shares.
This made Huang Zhang very frustrated. Without a response from Apple, Huang Zhang took his subordinates to enjoy the scenery of the United States like a tour guide with a group......
After several days of research, Jobs and the lawyers in Apple's legal department found out where the patents in the hands of Dream Technology conflicted with those in the hands of Apple.
Since Apple's experimental research is recorded in time, Apple has several patents that are obviously earlier than the patents in the hands of Dream Technology.
The same Apple's patent application was earlier than the patent application in the hands of Dream Technology, but it was the patent application in the hands of Dream Technology that was successful.
This made Jobs, who had studied it carefully for several days, very happy, although this little bit of a loophole was nothing for the whole patent case.
But now Apple desperately needs such an opportunity, a reason to take Dream Technology to court, because Jobs believes that the laws of the United States will help Apple win.
The smiling Steve Jobs asked the legal department to appeal to the U.S. court on this basis, and the court ruled that some of the patent applications in the hands of Dream Technology were invalid.
For this reason, Jobs specially approved a large amount of money for the legal department to lobby for the necessary prosecution.
