In Shanghai, Wu Hao landed smoothly on a civil airliner, and then boarded the long-awaited motorcade to the hotel. The company's business jet was in Europe and was used by Tong Juan and the others, so Wu Hao chose to call it a civil airliner this time.
In fact, if he needs it, he can borrow a business jet or rent one. The former only requires a word from him, and the cost of the latter is a drop in the bucket for him.
However, in Wu Hao's opinion, taking a passenger plane is also very good, just for traveling. Anyway, it is a first-class cabin, and the riding environment is still very comfortable.
Of course, there was one thing that made him a little dissatisfied. That was when he encountered a first-class passenger who struck up a conversation during the ride. Although the flight attendant promptly stopped him, it still affected his riding experience.
Wu Hao came to Shanghai this time to attend the press conference of a new domestic EUV extreme ultraviolet lithography machine project, a public investment project of eight of their companies and Shanghai Microelectronics Research Institute.
In fact, the development progress of this project has lagged behind for a long time. According to the plan, it should have been released last year, but it was delayed until this summer to hold this press conference.
This is enough to illustrate the difficulty of this project, especially how to break through these technical blockades under heavy overseas blockades and develop its own high-performance domestic new EUV extreme ultraviolet lithography machine.
Compared to Wu Hao's low profile, the others who came were relatively high profile. Whether they were in a convoy of special planes or reporters accompanying him for interviews, they were all diverse and each showed their special abilities.
In comparison, Wu Hao seemed a bit too low-key and unremarkable. But the more so, the more attention Wu Hao received during his trip.
Especially the large-scale patent rights litigation ongoing in Europe, as well as the news that Wu Hao and others are about to hold a summer new product & technology launch conference, made these reporters swarm in like sharks smelling blood.
If it weren't for the hotel's strong security, these reporters might have touched his room long ago.
According to the plan, the press conference will be held at ten o'clock in the morning the next day, and the first night will be a private party. Lao Ma will treat the guests, and the party venue will be in a high-end club on the bank of the Huangpu River.
Tonight, the entire club is closed, which means that the entire club has been booked by Lao Ma. Standing by the windows of the club, you can see the scenery on both sides of the Huangpu River very clearly. It can be said that the scenery on both sides of the river is the best.
The best place.
To be able to open such a high-end club in such a place, its background and ability are average. Of course, no matter how powerful they are, they can't compare to these people who come to the party.
When Wu Hao walked into the club, Lao Ma was chatting with Brother Xiao Ma and others who had already arrived. Seeing Wu Hao come in, these people greeted him with smiles.
Seeing this, Wu Hao quickly apologized with a smile: "Sorry, sorry, I'm late, I'm late."
Seeing this, Lao Ma smiled and shook his head and said: "It's not too late, it's not too late, it's still early, and there are still people who haven't arrived yet."
Oh, Wu Hao looked around and then nodded, it must be those few people.
While Wu Hao was looking at the environment, Lao Ma smiled and said: "Let's go over and sit down and chat while waiting for them. What do you want to drink?"
Let’s have a glass of juice. Wu Hao made a sound and the tree fell down.
Hahahaha, forget about the juice, let’s have a glass of white wine first. Let’s wait until everyone is here and we’ll start the whole thing. Lao Ma smiled at Wu Hao and asked the waiter to bring him a glass of white wine, and then gave him and Xiao Ma a glass of white wine.
Tao Zhengyang, who is brother and H, said.
Let me tell you, this time I have prepared two cans of good rice wine, truly aged for thirty-five years, which is very rare.
Hearing Lao Ma's introduction, Brother Ma couldn't help but ask: "Is it suitable to drink rice wine on such a hot day?"
Haha, Lao Ma smiled and showed off (introduction): "This rice wine is not only better for drinking warm, but also suitable for cold drinking. Put the clay pot containing the rice wine into ice cubes to refrigerate, so that the temperature of the wine can be
When it reaches about one degree, it tastes best when you drink it.
Of course, for a young man like you, you can just add ice cubes to the wine and drink it." Lao Ma looked at Wu Hao and said.
Haha, Wu Hao smiled and waved his hand and said: "I don't have much research on drinking. Anyway, there is only one thing: don't get drunk, it will affect tomorrow's press conference."
"That's for sure. Our main purpose tonight is to reminisce about old times, so we won't delay things." Lao Ma gave Wu Hao a reassuring look, then changed the subject and started teasing him.
"Haha, you guys are very popular these days. Now not only us, but also the world's technology, Internet circles, and the media are paying attention to you.
I heard that many media directly surrounded the hotel where you were staying."
Yes, flesh and blood cannot escape. Wu Hao smiled bitterly in his heart, then nodded helplessly at Lao Ma and the other two people and said: "If the hotel security hadn't been okay, I guess I wouldn't have been able to get out if I was stuck in the hotel right now.
coming."
Hahahaha, several people chuckled when they heard his words, and Brother Ma immediately asked: "Why is there such a big fuss, and 1,439 patent infringement cases involving 1,439 patent infringement cases were filed against seven companies in 27 countries at the same time?
Isn’t it a little too risky?”
After hearing Brother Xiao Ma's question, Lao Ma and Tao Zhengyang immediately looked at him, waiting for his answer.
Wu Hao smiled bitterly when he heard this and said: "We have no choice. We are forced into a corner. We can't just sit back and wait for death. So we thought that our tone was submissive and we were allowed to be slaughtered. We might as well concentrate our efforts and fight back."
No one will be slaughtered by others, and none of us can accept this. Lao Ma nodded and said: "But it is a bit unwise to litigate 1,439 patent infringement cases against seven companies in 27 countries at the same time.
You should work separately and concentrate your efforts on one family first. Then each family will do it one by one. This will be safer and more likely to win than now."
Of course, we originally planned to do it this way, but time waits for no one. Wu Hao sighed and said: "Our overseas market has been jointly blocked by several giants. They are no longer limited to the European and American markets, but
We have turned our targets to Southeast Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, West Asia and other countries. And we have begun to encroach on our consumer markets in various places. Faced with this situation, if we don’t take action, once these companies open the gap
, is expanding rapidly, then it will be even more impossible for us to restrict and organize the other party’s expansion and growth.”
After hearing Wu Hao's words, the three of them nodded. They should have thought that this matter was far from being as simple as it seemed on the surface, and there should be other reasons. Now they know the answer from Wu Hao's mouth. Although Wu Hao
In this regard, they just introduced the situation without saying much. But based on the rich experience of the three people present, they can imagine that Wu Hao and the others must have a bigger plan.
