Chapter 305 What! He Sued Apple for Copyright Infringement? (The Third Update Is Here!)

After Avery Zaxi finished talking with Bi Feiyu, he left in a hurry.

His position in this session of the [Cannes International Film Festival] was second only to President Leon. Lying in the hospital for three days meant that the [Cannes International Film Festival] was stagnant for three days.

Bi Feiyu excitedly sent Avery Zaxi to the door. After watching Avery Zaxi leave, his mind was full of visions for the future and excitement for the present.

Then...

He continued to be busy.

During these three days, the popularity of "7 Days to Die" in AlloCiné, France, became stronger day by day. There was also a rumor that "7 Days to Die" was very likely to be shortlisted for the [Cannes International Film Festival]. Therefore, many French theaters saw the business opportunity and came to talk to him about the film copyright issue.

As the director of "7 Days to Die" and the copyright manager of the film department of [NC Entertainment], he naturally had to be busy with these things.

By the window.

Zhang Sheng continued to drink a sip of coffee and looked at this city full of artistic atmosphere.

The faint aroma after the bitterness of coffee made him immersed in it. He enjoyed this carefree and leisurely feeling.

Below, the fans were in high spirits. More and more people came to watch the movie, and the streets next to [Serlu Cinema] were blocked for a time.

Whether it was "Midnight Ring" in the original world or "7 Days to Die" in this world, they were actually playing the trick of "curiosity kills the cat"...

Everyone knows this simple truth, but human nature is like this. Even though you know it, you can't control it.

Thinking of human hearts...

Zhang Sheng thought of Zheng Chengwu's phone call again.

Zheng Chengwu's appearance appeared in his mind.

This is a man with a strong utilitarianism, who wants to do something in the film industry and bring [Starlight Future] back to glory and become a great contributor to the entire [Starlight Future].

People with a strong utilitarianism often do whatever it takes and are often conceited.

"7 Days to Die" was shortlisted in Cannes, what an amazing thing!

If he could have something to do with this movie, or even win an award at Cannes, he would be a "hero" praised by the entire Chinese film industry after returning to China. Few people could resist such temptation.

This world...

is still a world of interests.

Just like that, after looking into the distance for about ten minutes, the coffee was finished.

He stood up from the chair.

He glanced at his phone, which had many missed calls, from Li Yanhong, from Lin Xia, from Xu Shengnan...

But, there was no one from Ke Zhanchi.

Zhang Sheng walked down from the upstairs of [Sailu Cinema], passed by the crowded hall, passed by the door where there was still a long queue, and reporters were carrying cameras to shoot things...

He called back the missed calls on his phone one by one.

Lin Xia called to tell him that her new book had been on sale and was selling very well, and that her mother Gu Jiangyan was getting better and better recently, and could go to the toilet alone and would not fall down. The doctor said this was a miracle, and she continued to create some miracles.

After talking about her recent situation, she also asked about her recent situation in France...

Li Yanhong called to congratulate "7 Days to Die" for making a name for Chinese films in France, and asked when she would return to China and meet with her.

Xu Shengnan told her on the phone that she was negotiating with Zheng Chengwu, and the matter had been reported to the chairman...

When Zhang Sheng finished answering all the calls, he had come to the riverside on the east side of Sailu.

On the riverside, many singers were singing melodious and relaxing songs, and at the same time, painters were painting the scenery on the other side.

After watching for a while, Zhang Sheng lowered his head and continued to look at his phone.

He still didn't wait for Ke Zhanchi's call...

After a long time, Zhang Sheng took out his phone, hung up the international roaming, and called Shen Xiaoxi.

"Mr. Zhang..."

"Mr. Shen, has our company's legal department been established?"

"It's almost established."

"Well, OK, go to my office computer and find an encrypted file named [Evidence], and give the contents of the encrypted file to the legal department... If [Starlight Future] wants to hype the [Cannes International Film Festival], you can ask the legal department to directly send a lawyer's letter to the other party..."

"Oh, OK, but your computer? This, Mr. Zhang, is it convenient?"

"It's convenient. I have a backup. By the way, I have a recording here. Although the recording is not evidence, some things don't need any evidence."

"Oh, OK, Mr. Zhang..."

"By the way, there is one more thing. Is there any news in the technology circle recently?"

"Technology circle, well, it seems that Apple 4 seems to be about to release its first promotional advertisement..."

"Oh, very good."

A gust of wind blew.

Zhang Sheng hung up the phone.

He looked at the pedestrians on the riverside in the distance.

Then, he lay on a stone, looked at the blue sky in the distance, and closed his eyes.

……………………………

May 1st.

United States.

IPO company.

"Mr. Jos, the facts prove that you are right. China is indeed a huge market. In the past month, our iPad tablets have sold more than 120,000 units in China's regular channels..."

"These 120,000 units are the total shipment volume we have given to Chinese dealers. The market is still in a hungry state. Yesterday, iPad pre-orders from China exceeded 200,000 units!"

"The rush on our official website is still going on. Our iPads were sold out as soon as they were put on the shelves. According to my current investigation, some users even used some auxiliary software in order to grab our iPads..."

"..."

In a spacious and bright office.

Weis held the iPad and calmly reported to her boss Joes about iPad sales in China, as well as some recent market conditions.

Jos listened silently and smoked a cigar. China's shipments of 120,000 units in the first month did not surprise Jos.

Then, he waved his hand and asked Weiss to report on the situation of China's science and technology circle.

"Nokia's sales in China declined slightly in April, accounting for 34% of the market. Samsung's sales increased to 20% from 16% last month, but LG's sales declined, accounting for only 100%. Nine out of ten..."

"After Google's Android system is open sourced, Chinese local mobile phone brands have a tendency to take the lead. In March, it was 16%, and in April, it was close to 17%!"

"According to a series of data analysis, the strongest opponent of our Apple system in the future should be Android..."

"Except Nokia, which insists on using its own Symbian system, Samsung, LG, Sharp and other mobile phones all use Android systems and have launched their own models..."

"..."

Weisi meticulously reported the sales volume of China Mobile Phones.

After the report, she sat quietly aside, waiting for Joss to speak.

Joes put the cigar aside and crossed his hands to support his chin, thinking about the IPO company's next plan for the Chinese market.

"What are China's expectations for Apple 4?"

After about a few minutes, he put down his arms and looked at Joss seriously.

"Crazy! When we announced that we were about to release Apple 4, the entire IPO store in China was very crazy. We have already received nearly 200,000 orders for Apple 4 mobile phones. Moreover, this was before we had officially released Apple 4. The heat of the film..."

"How are the sales of Huaxing mobile phones from [Yaohua]?" After listening to Weisi's words, Jos suddenly asked an unrelated question.

"China's domestic mobile phones accounted for 16% of the total sales in March and 17% in April. Among these 17%, 7% were Huaxing mobile phone sales..."

"I remember that the sales volume of Huaxing mobile phones in March only accounted for 2%, right? It increased by 5% in one month. This data is amazing!" When Joss heard this, his originally calm expression suddenly became serious. got up.

"Mr. Joes, this is a [Huaxing] mobile phone that has just been dismantled. Its sales price is very cheap and its memory is very small. Because it is low-end and cheap but has good functions, the sales volume is very good..."

"What about the [Huaxing] phone?" After controlling the [Huaxing] phone for a while, Joss threw the phone aside.

This kind of phone poses no threat to the iPhone 4 at all.

"The [Hua X1] mobile phone is a customized mobile phone. I can't get a prototype. However, I learned about the internal channels of [Hua X1] through some channels. Although their configuration is better than our iPhone 3 on the surface, in fact, the chip It is still the lowest-end "patchwork" mobile phone, and its production capacity is extremely limited, which poses no threat to us at all! "

"Um……"

Joss took the parameters of [Hua X1] and the components inside that Weisi brought over seriously. After looking at them briefly, he stopped looking at them.

"Our opponents are still mobile phones based on Android..." Weiss added.

"Publish the trailer for the iPhone 4..." Joss did not respond to this sentence, but looked at Weis with a smile and nodded to her.

"good!"

Weiss nodded and left the office.

Joss pushed up his glasses and narrowed his eyes after thinking about a series of operations on Google's Android system.

opponent?

Android is no match for him.

When something transcends an era, it will only be massacred in the market, and everyone will become its prey.

Jos has that confidence.

Of course, he is confident, but he is not complacent.

He sat back in his chair and continued to look at a series of Chinese data seriously.

Only by always maintaining a kind of business vigilance and not despising every opponent that may rise can he be better able to ride in the new era.

afternoon!

Jos took a nap in the office.

When he woke up, he heard a knock on the door.

Then...

"Mr. Joes..."

"Weiss, what's wrong?"

“After our iPhone 4 promotional video was released, a Chinese company wanted to file a lawsuit with us and claimed that our iPhone 4 infringed on their appearance patent!”

"???"

(The third update is here! Sorry, it’s a little late...)
