Automotive Black Technology Chapter 721: : The acquisition failed?

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of automotive black technology!

Li Fanyu never expected that Zhengxin’s proposal to acquire the German Audi lamp factory would be rejected! I had just used a Land Rover to give Rickon and other car companies a trick, and it was actually being used back on me!

It’s **** good that things are changing!

"How did they reply?" Li Fanyu pinched his waist and asked Chen Huan with a painful look on his face.

Chen Huan was also helpless, spreading his hands and saying: "They said they have no plans to sell their shares for the time being, and..."

"And what?" Seeing Chen Huan hesitate, Li Fanyu asked hurriedly.

"And said that even if it is a transfer, they will not sell the company to a company that has infringed on their rights and interests. Regarding the car light patent, they will use legal means to defend their rights to the end. At the same time, they warned us to stop using A6 Their patented styling continues above."

"Go to hell!" Li Fanyu slapped the table hard.

According to the information obtained from the investigation by the Ministry of Justice, the A6's headlights have indeed caused the essence of infringement. But to be honest, it is not difficult to resolve this type of patent disputes. It's nothing more than spending some money to buy the patent rights from the other party and paying a certain amount of compensation and that's it.

Normally, the infringed company will agree. After all, judging from the current situation, the sales volume of Zhengxin A6 is very large. Using the patent of the Audi lamp factory will bring them a stable income.

But now the other party is unwilling to give in. They even rejected Li Fanyu's acquisition proposal that was 15% higher than the lamp factory's valuation. It seems that he wants to make things bigger.

Li Fanyu calmed down and asked Chen Huan beside him: "Which car company is behind this company?"

Chen Huan hesitated for a moment, "It's probably Oulian. This company has cooperative relations with both Mercedes-Benz and Oulian. However, given that Mercedes-Benz now has its own LED matrix first-class technology and has turned to self-production, Oulian's It's more likely."

European League?

Ha!

In this time and space, due to changes in the historical process, the top three German companies that Li Fanyu was familiar with have all changed except for the fact that Mercedes-Benz is still alive. BMW and Audi ceased to exist and were replaced by two local German brands, Euroleague and Weissmann.

This Euroleague is a bit similar to the BMW in the previous time and space. It is a brand among German cars that can directly compete with Mercedes-Benz.

As a German luxury model, it naturally cannot lack seats in the Chinese market. The BETone owned by Euroleague is a competitor at the same level as Range Rover.

The Range Rover has attracted too much hatred. The European Union must be behind this incident at the lamp factory.

Thinking about it this way, Li Fanyu understood why the Audi lamp factory rejected Zhengxin's acquisition - it was backed by a big tree, so it was easy to enjoy the shade!

After calming down, Li Fanyu thought for a moment and then asked: "If reconciliation cannot be reached and we follow normal legal procedures, what will be the result?"

Chen Huan pondered for a moment, "Actually, according to legal procedures, even if we lose the lawsuit in the end, we will just compensate for the previous infringement and stop using their patent. In fact, this is an easy solution. I checked, and the A6 The headlight is a registered technology patent.

We have no technical infringement, just appearance patent infringement. Even if we lose the lawsuit, we will not lose much.

It's just that...it has some impact on the reputation of the group. Director Li, otherwise... send someone to Germany to negotiate with them? The worst case scenario is to pay them double the compensation and ask them to withdraw the lawsuit. ”

Li Fanyu shook his head, "You think too simplistically. They are well-targeted and have finally caught the sore foot of our Zhengxin. They will not withdraw the lawsuit easily. You should have also seen that the other party is not at all It’s for money. It’s just to use this patent to disgust us and stink us. The lighting factory is behind this, and there is no possibility of reaching a settlement with the other party because of this.”

"What are you going to do?"

"Easy to handle!" Li Fanyu smiled slightly, "You go back first. Since the other party has gone through the legal process, then you can have fun with them. Leave the rest to me."

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Li Fanyu’s guess was correct. The Audi lamp factory was indeed supported by EUNEA. In fact, Zhengxin’s models have never entered Europe. If the European Union had not studied for a long time and found an Audi product shape patent in the patent database that overlapped with Zhengxin A6’s headlights, this car manufacturer would not have known that it would have another product. Such a foreign fortune.

The reason why Zhengxin cannot acquire the Audi lamp factory is also very simple. The largest shareholder of this company is an executive director of Oulian Company.

Only the fifth day after sending the lawyer's letter to Zhengxin, audi issued a statement through a media;

As a lighting manufacturer with a century-old history, Audi has actively invested in product research and development and design in recent years, and has a total of 34 technology patents and 55 appearance design patents. Among them, there are 6 items involving the first-class appearance of automobiles. Among them, GM201220538193.2 is one of them.

Today, our company discovered that Zhengxin Group (China) ignored our company’s product rights and interests, ignored international patent laws and regulations, and without any written consent and authorization from our company, privately adopted counterfeiting and infringement methods to produce and sell products containing our products. The product produced by the company with the above-mentioned appearance patent is: Zhengxin Audi A6.

His behavior is conclusive and has seriously infringed the patent rights of our company's products, seriously damaged our company's economic interests, seriously disrupted the normal international market order, and trampled on the dignity of relevant international patent laws and regulations.

Our company now makes a solemn statement to Zhengxin Group, please immediately stop producing products suspected of infringing patent rights, immediately terminate infringement, and stop using them. At the same time, we also kindly ask relevant units and individuals to pay attention not to purchase and use products that infringe on intellectual property rights, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble and loss of reputation to you.

Otherwise, our company will request the patent management department to handle the infringement in accordance with the provisions of the international "Patent Law", or directly file a lawsuit with the People's Court. At that time, the infringing unit will bear such losses as goodwill and losses caused by the infringement. All adverse legal consequences such as damages and other expenses incurred in handling patent infringement matters.

Since Li Fanyu angrily criticized foreign car companies at a press conference, Zhengxin Group and Land Rover Branch have been at the forefront of public opinion, and the society has not yet recovered from Zhengxin’s mouthful of chicken soup.

Under such circumstances, as soon as this statement was released, it immediately caused an uproar!
