Chapter 120: The Dark Tide in the Country

Rodriguez thought for a moment: "If we have a high probability of winning the lawsuit from a purely technical point of view, with these materials of your company, Apple's infringement lawsuit is simply untenable." But in the United States, it's not just legal factors that determine the outcome of a lawsuit, but also other factors, such as the jury ......"

Lu Yang didn't know about American law, and he didn't think he needed to know about it. Even if he studied these things, he could not be more proficient than a barrister like Rodriguez, and it was better to leave the matter to professionals like them than to bother with it.

Leaving the matter to Su Yan, Lu Yang took Gao Yue and left.

"Gao Yue, what do you say is interesting in San Francisco?"

Lu Yang was bored in the hotel and wanted to go out for a walk.

Gao Yue said: "Does the boss want to go out?" Why don't we go to Chinatown, I've been in the United States for more than a month, and I haven't been there yet. ”

Chinatown? Lu Yang also became interested.

"Okay, let's go to Chinatown."

The driver for Lu Yang was Hoffman, a black man, who was also one of the first Americans recruited by Tianxin Technology. Many people have a bad impression of blacks, but Lu Yang doesn't feel that way, at least in terms of dedication and work attitude, Hoffman's appearance is impeccable.

"Go to Chinatown." Gao Yue said to Hoffman.

Hoffman is a veteran driver with more than 20 years of driving experience, before coming to Tianxin Technology, he was a taxi driver, and by chance, he was hired by Tianxin Technology. Hoffman cherishes the job in front of him, compared to being a taxi driver, the income is more stable, the work is not tiring, and most importantly, the company's Huaxia boss does not discriminate against him.

Hoffman's car drove very smoothly, which reminded Lu Yang of Feng Hai in China, and the two of them were equally skilled in driving.

Half an hour later, Hoffman drove into Chinatown, slowing down to let Lu Yang see clearly.

"This is Chinatown, you see the signboards here are all Chinese characters, and the streets are full of Chinese." Gao Yue was in Chinatown for the first time, and he felt strange to see everything.

"It's true, when I get here, I feel like I'm back in China." Lu Yang smiled, seeing the familiar Chinese characters and skin in a foreign country, he couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart.

Finding a place, the two got out of the car and began to wander around Chinatown. Lu Yang found that although this is a Chinatown, it is not a domestic country after all, and many places are still different. But he didn't care about this, and together with Gao Yue, the two tasted the food on the roadside, enjoyed the different scenery, and had a lot of fun.

"Boss, there's a mahjong player there!" Gao Yue seemed to have discovered something remarkable......

Lu Yang saw that not far away, four people were around a table and the Great Wall was yard, and there were three or five people watching next to him. He couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "Mahjong is really our quintessence, which has gone abroad and carried forward to the United States." This discovery has dispelled much of the strangeness of the two men's Chinatown.

Chinatown isn't always fun, though.

When Lu Yang and Gao Yue were eating at a Chinese restaurant, four Americans in suits and sunglasses walked in. When the owner of this Chinese restaurant saw them come in, he bowed his head and invited them in, and after a while he sent them out.

"Waitress, what are they doing?" Lu Yang was curious, and pulled a young man next to him and asked.

The young man, who was also Chinese, looked back and said unconcernedly, "I'm here to collect money." ”

"Collecting money? They don't look like U.S. government workers, do they? Gao Yue looked skeptical.

The young man glanced at her: "You are from China, no wonder I don't know, I advise you to ask less, those people just now are on the black list here." ”

"Blacklist?" Lu Yang thought about it, that image was really true.

"Since it's a black list, they just came to collect protection money, right?" Gao Yue immediately guessed the truth, and he was not talented, he acted like this in movies and television.

The young man ignored the interests of the two.

"You'd better ask a few questions, just come here to have fun, don't be too curious." The young man didn't want to talk about these things and turned away.

Gao Yue's question was not answered, and his face was regretful, but Lu Yang's heart had an extra layer of haze. Although the young man didn't say it just now, everyone can guess that the Chinese in Chinatown are not as good as others think, and many of their problems here cannot be guaranteed.

After an afternoon of strolling around Chinatown, Lu Yang and Gao Yue returned to the hotel, and Rodriguez also left. Lu Yang turned on the computer and replied to several emails, all of which were from China. Several of them are about the research and development of tablet computers, in terms of design, technical personnel have different opinions, Lu Yang synthesized it, and made the final judgment.

Another letter was from my sister Lu Yuhan, asking how she was doing in the United States.

Chen Jie also wrote an email, saying that the news of Tianxin Technology being sued by Apple has been reported by domestic media. Lu Yang thought about it for a while, and replied to ask Chen Jie to hold a press conference to explain, and also asked the network propaganda department to pay attention to guiding public opinion, so as not to damage the reputation of Tianxin Technology.

After doing this, it was getting dark, Lu Yang walked to the window, looked at the long line of lights on a road not far away, and felt empty in his heart.

"Strange, how do I feel like someone is staring at me?"

Standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, Lu Yang's eyes searched around, as if he was looking for something. After looking for a long time, Lu Yang found nothing, he closed the bed curtain and tried to stay away from the window, so that the feeling of being watched was slightly reduced.

"Is it a hallucination, or is it a sixth sense?"

This feeling is the first time Lu Yang has encountered it, so he himself is not sure. Lu Yang's spirit and body were strengthened by the Heavenly Dao Credit Card, and his senses were more acute than ordinary people. He is a cautious man, and he is willing to believe even in such unwarranted crises. Moreover, now not at home, but in the United States, anything can happen.

"Don't be careless." Lu Yang warned himself that the Tiandao credit card could no longer be taken out casually, if someone really monitored him and discovered this secret, Lu Yang was afraid that he would never recover.

Chen Jie quickly implemented Lu Yang's order, and in the afternoon of the same day, he held a press conference at the headquarters of Tianxin Technology, and at the same time, the ins and outs of the matter were also announced in the Tianxin community. After that, major domestic media reported on Apple's lawsuit against Tianxin Technology.

"Apple sued China's smartphone manufacturer Tianxin Technology for infringement." Report by People's Daily Online.

"Patent trap, the bottleneck for Chinese high-tech enterprises to go abroad!" "Guangming Daily" reported.

"Is 'Starry Sky 1' really infringing?" Tianxin community report.

"Apple wants to prevent Tianxin Technology from entering the U.S. market." Tengxun reported.

In China, the evaluation of Tianxin Technology and "Starry Sky 1" is still very high, and these reports are basically speaking for Tianxin Technology, and at the same time maliciously speculating on Apple's intentions. Many netizens watched it and said that Apple's methods were too despicable, and shouted that Apple would get out of the Chinese market.

Just when Tianxin Technology did not pay attention, a dark tide has risen, many posts suddenly appeared on the Internet, and a lot of news appeared on several major portals, these people's statements seem to be neutral, but in fact, they are implying that Tianxin Technology's infringement has become a fact.

"Apple is a well-known electronics company in the United States, one of the world's top 500 companies, while Tianxin Technology is a Chinese enterprise that has only been established for three years, and the accumulation of patents between the two is very different."

"Steve Jobs is the pioneer of the smartphone, and Lu Yang is just an imitator."

"I've used iPhones, I've used Starry Sky 1, and they're a bit alike."

Under the guidance of these confusing public opinions, the domestic support for Tianxin Technology is no longer one-sided, and netizens who previously supported Tianxin Technology also expressed their disappointment.

In the capital of Yutian Electronics, Dong Ping, who fired Tang Jianming, personally served as the president of Yutian Electronics, and at this time he looked at his computer with a sneer on his face.

"It's so good now, it's so easy to break into the American market!" If Dong Ping's initial goal was to teach Lu Yang a lesson, now that he has tasted the sweetness of smartphone profits, what he wants to do most is to make Yutian Electronics bigger. In order to achieve this goal, Tianxin Technology is still the enemy he has to face.
