    "Since Mr. Xiao has said so, I, Mario, will definitely help you complete this commission." Mario said thoughtfully: "I will pack my things and set off tomorrow. Now let's draft a commission contract and use your patent code name.  An application number at the U.S. Trademark and Patent Office will do.¡±

    "good."

    Xiao Qi appreciates Mario more and more. In addition to knowing his patience, perseverance and kindness, he is also so crisp and meticulous, so it is no wonder that he can defeat that arrogant villain in the future.

    Mario is a very rigorous person. He picked up Xiao Qi¡¯s patent application number and drafted the contract again. After a while, he wrote a simple and clearly defined entrustment contract.

    Xiao Qi took it and took a look, "Hey, Mr. Mello, don't contracts consist of dozens of sheets with a lot of useful and useless things written on them? Why is yours so simple?"

    "Those are all things that I don't have confidence in myself and I have to clear my responsibilities first. I don't need it." Mario shrugged, "I am a lawyer and I am not here to deceive you. Do I need to go to such trouble?  ?¡±

    Being sincere in treating people is a great advantage of Mario. It is precisely for this reason that so many people who have no money to hire a lawyer muster up the courage to come and ask Mario for help.

    Xiao Qi simply looked at the binding force of the contract, signed his name, and then handed over a written check.

    "Two million?" Mario took a look at it and frowned: "Isn't it written in the contract that the total cost is two hundred thousand, plus my travel expenses? Why do you give me so much?"

    "When I walked in just now, I saw a few people moving, so I asked you a question." Xiao Qi said lightly, "Your office is going to be demolished, and you don't have a new address yet, right? You take the money first.  Go and use it. After all, I have to do business in China. There will be many things in the future that are not convenient for me to come to the United States directly, so I want to find a cooperative lawyer and pay a little money in advance. "

    Mario didn¡¯t know what Xiao Qi¡¯s business was, and thought it was just an investment like other Chinese people. After a little thought, he accepted the check, ¡°Okay, let me borrow your money.¡±

    "No need to borrow, it's considered an investment." Xiao Qi smiled, "There will be a lot of things in the future, and you can't do it alone. Why don't you open a small law firm and find a few people to help you, and the money will be mine."  investment law firm.¡±

    "How can I have so many cases?" Although opening his own law firm is the dream of all lawyers, Mario still shook his head repeatedly, "The more people you find, the more salary you have to pay, and you will lose money on this business.  Well, it¡¯s better not to do it.¡±

    "Mr. Melo, look at the more than one hundred patents I have applied for. This is just the first step. There will be more arduous things to deal with in the future." Xiao Qi said without hesitation, "That's it.  I will hold 20% of the shares in your firm, and you can decide the rest by yourself, I won¡¯t interfere.¡±

    When Mario heard that his yet-to-open law firm had been valued at 10 million by Xiao Qi, he immediately rejected it.

    However, Xiao Qi was very insistent. The two argued for a while, but Xiao Qi persuaded Mario with the reason: "By opening a law firm, I can make more money and help the poor. Isn't this good?"  .

    It is fair to say here that Mario is a good person, but it does not mean that he does not want to make more money. Helping others and working hard to make money are two completely different things.

    What Xiao Qi will face in the future will be Qiao Gangzhu, Nokia, Motorola, Samsung and other giants. Without a strong legal team, I am afraid that he will be mentally exhausted by the heavy prosecution and being sued before the business is done.  .

    Mario¡¯s current ability may not be as good as those gold-medal lawyers, but his patience and resilience are absolutely top-notch. With the help of such a good lawyer, Xiao Qi can rest assured about the company¡¯s legal affairs in the future.

    Xiao Qi¡¯s time is very tight. Seeing that the IPHONE is about to be launched and the era of smart phones is coming, the purchase of some patents is definitely a priority without delay.

    Although the total number of patents for smartphones and tablets is tens of thousands, they can be summed up in four aspects: chip patents, underlying protocol-level patents, operating system technology patents and application system patents.

    Except for application system patents, which may be developed by small and medium-sized companies, more than 80% of the remaining three basic and core patents are in the hands of large companies.

    Xiao Qi came to Linus for the third "operating system technology patent". He didn't need to buy patents in this area, so his focus was on the first two.

    Chip patents and underlying protocol levelsThe benefits are different.

    Chip patents are generally specific to a certain manufacturer, such as Texas Instruments, ADI, Qualcomm, Nokia, etc.

    The underlying protocol-level patents involve almost all first-class mobile phone manufacturers, such as Nokia, Motorola, Philips, Siemens, Sony Ericsson, etc.

    Between the two, the patent barrier is the most serious at the underlying protocol level. Especially now that general 2G mobile phones are very popular and profits are the highest, they will definitely not give an unknown guy like Xiao Qi a chance to share the profits.

    From the information provided by William Private Consulting Company, Xiao Qi discovered that Merrill Lynch was behind ADI and Goldman Sachs was behind Texas Instruments. He felt a headache for a while.

    Whether it is Merrill Lynch or Goldman Sachs, they are at the top of the American financial world, especially Goldman Sachs, which is known as the most terrifying and greedy investment bank in the United States, even more powerful than the Morgan system that has long dominated Wall Street.

    If you want to take the cake from Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs, you have to be prepared to lose one of your hands.

    Qualcomm¡¯s background is much simpler. It is jointly held by hundreds of famous engineers and operated independently.

    It¡¯s a pity that they have never been short of money. Many companies have wanted to invest in or purchase their patents, but Qualcomm has not agreed.

    It¡¯s hard to see Qualcomm¡¯s foresight now, but when the 3G smart era comes, Qualcomm will become the electronics industry company with the most patent revenue in the world, with profits so high that everyone will be jealous.

    Even when smartphones started to become popular, Qualcomm was actually like an ant compared to Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch and even Citigroup. As a result, Qualcomm relied on its advantages as an extremely pure technology company and did not need to be controlled by anyone at all.  Several well-known investment banks want to swallow this hen that lays golden eggs, but they have no place to start.  (To be continued.
