What Wei Chuyang wanted to do was to form his own patent barrier so that he would not be controlled by others in the future competition. He wanted to steal the features, interaction design, and appearance design of smart handhelds and computers in the future. He wanted to use the beautiful appearance? Humanized interaction design? Come, come, use it. Use your other technology patents to license each other.
With this support and his own system, Wei Chuyang had the confidence to make phones, tablets, and PCs. Otherwise, if he had to pay all the patent fees and face unlimited opponents, he might be ripped off when he saw that he had gained weight.
If Wei Chuyang could spare some time, he would. Even if he couldn't spare some time, he had to spare some time. Other than typing a certain number of words, Wei Chuyang opened the drawing software and drew the various appearance patents of the mobile phone and tablet computer that he could think of. He drew the overall picture first, then the details. Then, he used various side, front, anatomical drawings, and so on to set a certain appearance feature into a patent application format.
Wei Chuyang even drew out some simple and special technology patents that didn't need to be accumulated. He described them into words and used software to give them a unified format. Then, he brought them to the US patent and trademark office to apply for them.
Wei Chuyang also knew that many of these 800 plus patents were either applied for or not applied for by the giants like Microsoft.apple.nokia.ericsson. If his application was found to be in conflict with someone else's application, it would definitely be rejected.
But if they didn't try, no one would know. What if they got lucky? There were many cases of patent registration.
With a nervous and excited mood, Wei Chuyang boarded the flight to Washington.
Wei Chuyang had planned for more than two months for this trip to America.
Traveling expenses, food, hotels, and patent applications cost money. Where did this money come from? Of course, he earned it from plagiarizing the books " Hello, Old Times " and " Those Things About the Ming Dynasty ".
Ever since the two books were uploaded, the results were amazing. As of the day before yesterday, the total number of readers for the two books had reached 150,000, and the total number of readers was more than 5 million.
In the middle of April, Wei Chuyang signed a publishing contract with Origin Network. For this trip to America, Wei Chuyang had argued with Origin Network's deputy editor, Niu Delun. The other party only gave 8% royalties. Wei Chuyang was an outsider, so he naturally did not know what the price was. He insisted on a 20% royalty share and did not give in at all.
The two sides talked for more than four hours before reaching an agreement. Niu Delun was also wiping his sweat. Ignorance was really scary. The final result was that Wei Chuyang had originally agreed to take 14% of the royalties, but he had to give up another 4% in exchange for 200,000 USD. This meant that he could only get 10% of the royalties. He would also participate in two signing events. The first one was expected to be held during the summer break, and the exact time would depend on Origin Network's arrangements.
As Wei Chuyang's guardian, Mother Wei signed the contract on behalf of Wei Chuyang, and the contract officially took effect. At this point, it could be considered perfect. The book had earned money, and he would not have to worry about money for the time being.
There were many places that required money, and the things that did not require money were also cumbersome. They had to apply for a passport and apply for foreign exchange. Wei Chuyang's county didn't have an Exit-Entry Administration yet. He took a four-hour bus ride alone and it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived. After eating, he walked to the lobby and saw a long line of about twenty people.
Wei Chuyang was also stunned. When did this place become so rich? Under Wei Chuyang's influence, his hometown was still very poor. Of course, how could the inland compare to the coastal areas? Fortunately, the Foreign Exchange Bureau was not far from the Exit-Entry Administration Bureau, so it was finally done before the end of work.
He was so busy that everything was ready. The last obstacle was his parents. In the end, Wei Chuyang nagged at his parents for a week. Fortunately, during this period of time, Wei Chuyang's parents also saw their son running around and agreed to let him go.
。。。。。。
Two hours later. After leaving the Washington airport, he took a taxi all the way to the headquarters of the US patent and trademark office.
As a country that valued intellectual property rights, the US's patent and trademark office was full of people coming and going, and cars were coming and going non-stop. This undoubtedly showed that intellectual property rights had penetrated deep into everyone's hearts.
On the way here, he heard the black driver boast about how luxurious the building was. After getting out of the car, he saw that it was indeed so. The headquarters of the patent and trademark office was luxurious and magnificent!
Wei Chuyang asked around and walked into a spacious and bright building. After receiving his number plate in the lobby on the first floor, he followed the instructions to the lobby on the third floor. After waiting for about 30 minutes, his number was finally called.
The person serving Wei Chuyang was a Caucasian woman. She looked to be around 25 or 26 years old. She looked very beautiful from afar, and her breasts were also very big and bulging. When she walked closer, she saw that there were still quite a few sparkles on her face. This was probably a characteristic of Caucasians. Speaking of which, Brazilian women were the most beautiful. It was probably because they were of mixed blood.
"Hey, sir, what business do you have?”，the staff asked habitually.
"Hello, I'm from **. I'm here to apply for a patent. This is the information I prepared. There are a total of 862 applications.”Wei Chuyang casually took out the folder that he had prepared.
" Wow, my god." The staff looked at Wei Chuyang in surprise. It was rare for a young man to come from a faraway country to apply for a patent."Are you from ** to apply for these patents?”。
The staff took the information and looked at it before asking,"Is there a classification?"
" Yes, there are 650 invention patents in the brown folder. There are 212 design patents in the red folder. The categories are all indicated on the folder," Wei Chuyang had already sorted it out in advance and answered casually.
" Oh, let me see. It's related to consumer electronics. The appearance of a mobile phone, the appearance of a tablet…Tsk tsk, Mr. Wei, you're really amazing. I'm shocked to see these appearance patterns. You're really a genius." Although the staff member was not a patent examiner, he knew a little after interacting with them for a long time. After looking at a few more patent blueprints, he found that these blueprints were very well-made. They were the ones he saw on a daily basis, and the descriptions were very detailed. It was obvious that he had spent a lot of effort on them.
"It's just something that I've been thinking about on a daily basis. I don't know if it's useful or not.”Wei Chuyang scratched his head and said.
The electronics industry was prone to producing young geniuses, such as Gang Leader Qiao, Bill Gates, Dell, etc. However, it was the first time she had seen a 15-year-old young man with more than 800 patent applications coming to the United States to apply.
The patent application was very interesting. Other than your blueprint, the description of the function and appearance was also an important indicator of the patent.
As long as one's patent application was approved, not only the blueprint, but even the description and explanation beside the blueprint would be considered as patent content. One could directly apply for their own rights and claims, thereby restricting others from using and creating it.
"Okay, I've finished reviewing it for you. There's no problem. The documents are in accordance with the application format. This is the form that you need to pay.”，An hour later, the staff member heaved a sigh of relief.
"Oh, swipe my card."
Then, Wei Chuyang swiped his card to pay 100,000 USD. It was really expensive.
" Sir, the business that needs to be handled here has been completed. All that's left is the patent examination. You can go back and wait for the news. Usually, the results will take about half a year. Leave your contact information and email. Write it here and sign it." The staff handed the receipt to Wei Chuyang.
After everything was done, Wei Chuyang thanked the staff and walked out of the hall. He instantly felt relieved. As long as he accepted the patent application, he would immediately enter the patent protection period. Other people could not apply for the same patent again unless his patent application was rejected.
The rest could only be decided by the heavens. Wei Chuyang turned around and looked at the office building again. He would have to deal with them in the future.
When he returned to the hotel, he asked the hotel agent to buy a return ticket for the next day. He lay on the bed and felt relieved.
He hoped that everything would go smoothly. He did not expect to achieve a patent monopoly. He only hoped that he could restrict each other with the major companies and that no one would cheat him.
