Reborn Tokyo Golden Age

"So, does such a patent exist?"

"Hay" Osone Kozo nodded a little ashamedly.

As the developer of the Walkman, he didn't even know that there were similar patents abroad before the Walkman.

Not to mention him, even Dahe Dianxiong was a little confused when he saw the patent authorization letter in front of him.

As the vice president, the actual manager of Sony at this time, he would not pay attention to such trivial matters at all.

As far as Neon is concerned, the first Walkman was invented and manufactured by Sony.

There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but if it is placed in the world, a question mark needs to be added after it.

I don't know that Sony's research and development capabilities have been unrivaled in the world in the past few years, making them think that no one else can have this kind of creativity.

Or is it really ignoring this matter, causing the current high-level executives to know nothing about the patent situation of the Walkman.

"How's the patent situation in Japan?" Norio Ohga asked after a little contemplation.

"Here we are." Osone Yukio replied knowingly.

No matter how careless Sony is, it will not forget the local patent registration.

Hearing Osone Kozo's answer, Norio Oga subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

If the local patents are all squatted by the other party, then Sony will really become a joke.

Norio Ohga took off his glasses, took out the glasses cloth from the glasses case on the desk, wiped them carefully, and put them on again.

"Is it troublesome?" He folded the glasses cloth according to the previous shape, put it into the glasses case meticulously, and then raised his head.

Osone Kozo, who kept his body half bowed, hesitated for a few seconds before answering.

"At home we're winning."

Norio Oga nodded slightly, which was expected by him.

However, he also heard another meaning in the words, which is only in terms of the local area.

But unfortunately, Sony is a multinational company, not a small club that only focuses on the local area.

And with the development of the past few years, the proportion of foreign business has become more and more important in the entire Sony financial report.

Trade is mutual, and both parties need to abide by the laws and regulations of the other party.

Unless Sony ignores the British market, Europe is naturally integrated because of its geographical location.

Abandoning Britain is basically equivalent to giving up the European market.

Sony's business scope is very large, and the Walkman is only a small part of its products.

It is obviously impossible to give up all business in Europe because of this.

"Is there a possibility to evade it?" Norio Ohe asked in a deep voice as he tapped his fingers on the table.

If you can avoid patent risks without paying any price, that would be the best.

"It's very difficult. After this Shirakawa Electric took over, it made supplements to the original patents in European countries and even the United States, basically plugging all the loopholes.

And because the patent has existed for a long time, it is also in full compliance with local regulations legally. "

This trick really caught Sony's sore feet.

Andre's original patent is actually quite rough and imperfect, and many concepts are vague.

But now that Bai Chuanfeng got it, how could he leave a loophole and ignore it.

Not only in Britain, but also in European countries and even the United States, he re-added all the original patents.

If there is a country that has not registered, that is just right, so I simply registered together.

Because it is an upgrade of the original patent, after a friendly communication with Andre, the name of Baichuan Electric was added to the column of the patent applicant.

What patent license? Am I using my own patent?

When it comes to whoring for nothing, Bai Chuanfeng will never be late.

"Let's find a way to try to buy it."

Since the outside recruiting is no longer available, let's take down Baichuan Electric.

Dahe Dianxiong with a square face picked up the information on the table and looked at it in detail again, and a smile appeared on his face.

Now he is more and more interested in this Meiji student.

He even wanted to meet this young man who forced Sony to spend money to solve the problem.

"Acquisition?" Osone Kozo was stunned, originally he thought that he would directly ignore the existence of the other party.

Or exert pressure from the channel, forcing the other party to make concessions.

Norio Oga, who combed his hair meticulously, knew what Osone Kozo was thinking.

However, he was born in an art school, perhaps because of his experience of studying abroad.

His personality is much more cheerful than most Japanese, and even from the perspective of a musician, his personality is a bit naive.

But being able to become a member of the board of directors and serve as the vice president of a behemoth like Sony at the age of fifty has his own merits.

Toughness may be a means, but sometimes it also depends on the target.

Norio Oga put down the materials in his hands, no matter what, since he wants to try, let him try.

"Anyway, let's settle this matter as soon as possible.

The board of directors has decided that Walkman will enter overseas this year. Before that, the issue of patents must be resolved. "

"Hay!" Osone Kozo nodded understandingly.

Acquisition is an acquisition, but it is the means after no other way.

Before that, we still have to weigh the weight of this Baichuan Electric.

But since the lawyers' letters have already been sent to each other, it's not a bad idea to run into this Baichuan Electric first.

It is best for the other party to be knowledgeable, if not. Sony's powerful legal department has long been ready to go.

After leaving Norio Oga's office, Osone Kozo had just returned to his minister's office when an assistant came to report.

"Osone-san, Mibe Yusuke-san is asking for a visit outside."

"Yusuke Mibe? Why is this guy here again?" Osone Kozo waved his hand irritably, "No see!"

Yusuke Osone knew the intention of Yusuke Mibe's visit.

As the current president of Aihua, the other party just hopes that Sony can authorize it to use the Walkman patent and then produce its own Walkman brand.

Osone Kozo was having a headache about Shirakawa Electric's patents, so he didn't care about licensing.

Even when the matter of patents was mentioned, he became very angry, and Yusuke Mibe hit his gun at this time.

It's strange to have a good temper.

Besides, Walkman has just been launched for less than a year, and now is the period of maximizing dividends, so how can it be easy to let go of this piece of fat.

Even if Sony owns the shares of Aihua Company, it doesn't work. Being a son and being a son are completely different things.

Yusuke Mibe, who did not know how many times he visited outside, received a disappointing answer from his assistant again.

He glanced at the Sony logo on the wall of the reception room, and suddenly felt a little depressed.

The first few times were okay, even if I didn't agree, but at least I had a polite chat with myself.

These days, I don't even bother to do superficial work.

It is not an exaggeration to say that I visited the thatched cottage three times with sincerity.

Moreover, Sony is Aihua’s largest shareholder, and Aihua’s profit is Sony’s profit.

He's not greedy either, he just wants the low end of the market. Basically will not affect the sales of walkman.

But... Mibe Yusuke glanced at the logo on the wall again, thinking maliciously in his heart, if it was placed in the reckless era more than ten years ago.

Who cares about your patent issues, what to do for money. Miguo's father copied everything, not to mention Neon's own.

Aggrieved in disappointment, Yusuke Mibe sighed deeply. This time he did not look at the logo on the wall, but left the reception room without looking back.
