Vol 5 Chapter 653: Relax the relationship "seeking a monthly pass"

Forbes translated as Forbes in Taiwan, which means rich and enemy country. It is in line with the purpose of rbes, and it is the best translation plan for the combination of sound and meaning. It is translated as Forbes in mainland China. "Forbes" magazine has always been known for its bold predictions. In its recent 21st Century City Assessment Report, it predicted the world's top ten super cities in 2015, including Shanghai, China, Tokyo, Japan, and Mumbai, India. The report also predicts that in two years, the imbalance of population growth, natural disasters, climate warming and urbanization will cause famous cities such as San Francisco in the United States and Venice in Italy to become dead.

The forward-looking reports of "Forbes" magazine guide the investment direction of high-level decision makers and provide business opportunities. It is known as a barometer of the American economy. Each of its periodicals publishes commentary articles on companies and company managers in concise language. The content is original. Focus on describing the way of thinking of corporate elites, instead of staying at the reporting of news facts, focus on understanding news background, grasping dynamic information and industry trends, and in-depth discussion and research on the economic environment of business operations.

In the course of more than 80 years since its establishment, "Forbes" has gradually established its own unique style in the continuous search in the business field, and has gradually developed and grown into a prestigious international mainstream financial media group, which has created a ranking of rich people. It attracts global attention every year, and the group's total assets have exceeded one billion U.S. dollars. Three generations of the Forbes family have created a miracle of relying on a magazine to dominate the world, and celebrities from all walks of life are also proud of the "Forbes" rankings.

Fan Wubing asked Fan Ting smoothly, "How much does it cost to enter the top 50 of Forbes?"

"Is the first fifty a bit stingy? Why is it also the top ten?" Fan Ting replied with a smile.

"Ha--" Fan Wubing patted his head and said, "It seems that I won't give my future nephew an eight billion dollars as a meeting ceremony. This second uncle is not enough."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Fan Wuyi drove straight to the agreed place, and then, accompanied by the staff of the chief's office, changed to the car in the office, passed through the guard area, and came to the chief to meet the guests. office.

Generally speaking, if it is a more formal interview, they will choose someone to accompany and meet in a small meeting room. However, apparently the chief has arranged to his office in order to show his friendliness to Fan Wuyi, which looks more cordial. , Everyone will not feel constrained.

Fan Wuyao sat in the office for five minutes, and the chief, accompanied by the chief of the general office, came over. There were three people in total, and there was no guard accompanying him.

But think about it, if Fan Wubing wants to do something. It’s useless to have 20 or 30 more guards, but on the other hand, if something unexpected happens here, as long as there is Fan Wubing. Being present can also resolve the crisis to a minimum. After all, the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, and the name of the first grandmaster are not called out for nothing, and the strength of killing two little devils with one punch is not blown out.

Because of the precious time, the chief decided to go straight ahead, and Fan Wuyi didn't. Thinking about going around more and more, after a few polite words, the chief asked his own question, "Listening to you on the phone, probably discovered the US conspiracy? "

"On the phone, no. It's very convenient." Fan Wubing explained what he knew, and then analyzed, "According to the current data, it can be inferred that BSA is actually an organization created by Microsoft itself. I came to China to cheat under the banner of the International Business Software Alliance, so my deceptive power is still very strong. As far as I know, when domestic scholars talk about piracy, many places in the materials quote the BSA. The data is a big problem."

When he heard what Fan Wubing said, he immediately understood. He was also very experienced in economics at the beginning. He knew how bad the statistical data would have on the entire analysis and policy judgment and research, so he asked. , "Are there big discrepancies in data?"

"That's quite large--" Fan Wubing took out the actual data that Jiang Tong had provided by the foreign authoritative organization, and then took out the data provided by the BSA for the chief's reference.

After he got his hands, and compared the two, he found that the gap between the data was as high as tens of times. Obviously, there was a big problem with the BSA data, and he also looked at the composition of the BSA. There are a few.

"It seems that this BSA is really Microsoft's thug." The chief nodded, and then turned to ask the director of the general office, "I have to talk to Wuyi, you should check, during the negotiation, whether these data are all quoted from BSA What?"

The chief of the general office agreed, and immediately took the two documents and left.

Then the chief said to another escort, "Go and get something to eat. You didn't have enough food at the banquet just now. After thinking about the problem these days, I feel hungry."

"Okay, some snacks, or rice?" the accompanying staff member asked.

"Rice, the dishes are the same, make it lighter, um, you can make another fish-flavored pork shredded, let President Fan eat some by the way." The chief said after thinking for a while.

"Yes." The staff member took note, and then left.

There were only two people left in the room, the chief and Fan Wubing. At this time, the chief smiled and said to Fan Wubing, "This news is more important. The current intellectual property negotiations are very tight. If you say that the other party is in the data It would be too much if there are tricks on it."

Since the mid-1980s, Sino-US economic and trade relations have developed rapidly, but at the same time, Sino-US intellectual property disputes have intensified. Before the establishment of the WTO, the legal basis for Sino-US intellectual property disputes was Article 301 of the US Trade Act, commonly known as "Section 301", and there were three disputes involving "Section 301".

In the most recent dispute, three years ago, the U.S. Trade Representative again identified China as the only key country that year. The reason was that China did not earnestly implement the 1995 Sino-US Intellectual Property Agreement. There are problems with access.

However, just before the U.S. trade sanctions took effect, China and the United States reached a third intellectual property agreement. At the same time, the U.S. Trade Representative announced that it would follow China’s measures and plans to implement the 1995 Sino-U.S. Intellectual Property Agreement. The measures taken removed China from the list of key countries and ended trade sanctions against China.

"Since the 1970s, the new technological revolution guided by information and biotechnology has made production links no longer confined to one country or region, but distributed on a global scale. This has provided economic development for many developing countries. This has created good opportunities and has gradually weakened the dominant position of the United States in the global economy and trade. As a result, domestic industries in the United States have felt tremendous competitive pressure, and the US government has gradually realized that technology and technology are the biggest competitive advantages of US companies. And began to set up and implement new trade barriers, such as anti-dumping, technical trade barriers, intellectual property rights, etc., and made intellectual property strategy part of its national strategy." The protection of property rights is unfair. In China, innovation is preceded by protection and competition is superior to monopoly. However, internationally, it unilaterally emphasizes intellectual property protection, neglects international public interests, unilaterally emphasizes the identity of the intellectual property protection system, and neglects it. Each country’s own interests."

Fan Wubing nodded and said that in this Sino-US intellectual property dispute, the United States ignored China’s great progress in intellectual property protection and accused China of serious piracy and counterfeiting, which reminded people of the fact that the United States was also a global piracy. One of the worst countries.

Ten years ago, the United States refused to sign the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works. This was not because the United States had a weak awareness of protecting intellectual property rights, but because the publishing industry at that time was far behind the development of European countries such as Britain and France. It joined the Berne Convention. "It is not conducive to protecting one's own economic interests.

At that time, in order to compete with the "Bern Convention" and protect the interests of domestic publishers, the United States even concluded the "Inter-American Copyright Convention" with some American countries. The level of protection in the Convention is relatively low, in particular, it stipulates that works must meet certain conditions in order to be protected. The above-mentioned practice of the United States has made domestic piracy even more rampant. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com At that time, Dickens's "A Christmas Carol" was sold for 2.5 US dollars in the UK, while in the US, due to a large number of piracy, the price was only 6 cents.

Chang went on to say, “The purpose of protecting intellectual property rights is to promote and protect technological progress and socio-economic and cultural development. This means that when a country or region establishes its intellectual property system, it needs to consider how to protect the exclusive rights of right holders and benefit knowledge. To achieve the best balance between the dissemination and application of the Internet, and not to lose sight of the other, to be partial. Excessive protection of intellectual property rights is not only detrimental to economic development, but also worsens the conditions for innovation, forcing innovators to use their energy to avoid stepping on infringement. "Landmines" rather than innovation. At present, some American entrepreneurs have also pointed out that the US Patent Office’s policy of issuing patent licenses is too loose, and even "idiots" can obtain patents for things that cannot be called patents at all. This has caused many domestic companies in the United States to flee because of constant patent disputes."

Fan Wubing nodded and replied, "It is true."

But when he heard that the head was so clear about the issue of intellectual property rights, Fan Wuyi felt a little surprised. He usually thought it was easy to be a leader, but now it does not seem to be an easy task.

The two chatted for a while, and both felt very speculative. Naturally, no one would be so stupid to mention things about Shanghai. There are some things that everyone knows well, and there is no need to say it, otherwise it would be very embarrassing.

After a while, the food was also delivered. The chief enthusiastically invited Fan Wubing to have lunch, and Fan Wubing also happily expressed his gratitude. Everyone was very happy to eat. This move to ease the relationship has achieved the goal.
