Chapter 498: Want to annex 1 Bridge Group? (2 (1/2)
Tokyo is located on the east coast of the island country. The climate is a typical subtropical maritime monsoon climate. November and February are when there is a lot of precipitation.
Yesterday, the sky in Tokyo was still blue, but today it was overcast with heavy rain, and the atmosphere of the whole city was a little depressed. Pedestrians on the street hurriedly walked to their homes.
The outside world is overcast, and the Aiga family hall is not different.
At this time, Aiga Yasuhei, Aiga Ichiro, and Aiga Suzutaro knelt down on the tatami and looked at the subpoena with the red seal of the Tokyo court on the table. They all looked gloomy, and the room was filled with solemn gloom. breath.
For a long time, as the head of the family, Kangping Aiga broke the repressive silence: ”Jiuding Animation really appealed and there is no way out. You said, what should I do?”
Aiga Suzutaro, who originally disagreed with the strong suppression, moved his lips slightly, but finally saw nothing but sighed slightly, turning his attention to Aiga Ichiro, who had previously strongly suppressed Jiuding Animation.
Although they are all a family, the responsibilities still need to be distinguished. The main responsibility for this matter is not in him, and he has no other way. So don't take the initiative and let the ”more capable” people take the lead!
Aiga Ichiro's slightly lost gaze withdrew from the summons, and subconsciously looked at the two Aiga Kanghei, only to find that both of them were looking straight at him. He suddenly felt that there was a mountain on his back and he could not breathe well.
”Oh...”
Aiga Ichiro took a deep breath, gritted his teeth tightly, making a terrifying sound of grinding his teeth, and his temples on both sides bulged up. Obviously, he was very angry at this time.
But no matter how irritated he was, he was still hiding the panic in his heart.
Step by step and wrong step, until it evolves to the point where it is impossible to end, if I knew it, Ichiro Aiga would never have copied it so obviously. He spent a lot of thought on research and copied the essence of comics instead of making it. Similar outlines and settings, etc.
But the matter is now, no amount of regret is useless.
Faced with a dilemma, smart people will only find ways to solve the problem as soon as possible.
Aiga Ichiro is naturally a wise man, so he immediately cleared up his regrets and contemplated.
As time passed by, Aiga Ichiro stretched his brows slightly, and said to the two Aiga Yasuhiro: ”Now the only way is to use patents. As long as the patent is filed, the black ones can become white. It's useless!”
Aiga Kangping took a deep breath and could only agree. He thought for a while and asked: ”Which stage is the patent application? Does Nakahartsov have any reply? When can the application approval process be completed at the earliest?”
Ichiro Aiga immediately replied: ”I asked him when I came, and now there are only the final approval procedures. If you speed up the progress, as long as there is no accident in the middle, the patent can be applied for at most five days!”
As soon as this remark came out, Aiga Kangping's heart tightened. Five days were too rushed. Of course, Aiga Kangping was irritated by the enthusiasm of the Tokyo court, which made them so passive.
During normal work before, the Tokyo Tribunal was not so active.
According to the laws of the island country, under normal circumstances, after the court (ie the court, the island country is called the tribunal) accepts the case, the defendant must be served a summons within one week.
But what made Aiga Kanghei feel disgusting is that it should have been influenced by public opinion. This time the Tokyo Court was so fast that the case was accepted during the day, and the summons was served to them on the same day.
After they learned that Jiuding Animation went to lawsuit, only a few hours later, the summons was sent. They didn't have the time to prepare, and they were caught off guard.
According to the law of the island country, the time limit for the trial of a case is that the summons shall be issued within the trial period. The longest period is three months for simple procedures and six months for ordinary procedures.
However, the Tokyo referee directly wrote on the subpoena, using an ultra-short time limit, and the court will be held in five days!
This time is too tight!
It's just the time to get the patent, or five days if there is no accident. What if there is an accident?
Aiga Kangping was very nervous. He thought for a while and told Aiga Ichiro: ”Ichiro, the court will be held in five days. The time is too tight. You must hurry up to urge Chunsuo to approve it within three days. We will give it all at any price!”
”Yes!”
Aiga Ichiro nodded heavily, his expression very serious.
At this moment, Aiga Kanghei saw Aiga Suzutaro, who had been silent, and found that his brows were frowned and he was lost in thought, as if he was troubled by the problem.
Aiga Kanghei asked concerned: ”Suzutaro, what's the matter with you?”
Aiga Suzutaro raised his head, looked at Aiga Kanghei, then at Aiga Ichiro, and said quietly, ”I can't figure it out a little bit, I always feel something is wrong.”
”What's wrong?”
Aiga Ichiro asked quickly, and Aiga Yasuhiro also looked at him scorchingly.
Aiga Suzutaro shook his head in distress and said, ”After our press conference, Jiuding Animation should know that our patent is being applied for. Why are they indifferent? Isn't it strange?”
Hearing this question, Aiga Ichiro and Aiga Kangping were awakened immediately. The two looked at each other, and both couldn't help swallowing, with an unknown premonition in their hearts.
Aiga Ichiro seemed to be a firm conviction for himself. He frowned and said to himself: ”It's definitely okay. I asked Nakaharu Tsuo. Jiuding Animation has not filed any patent applications. It is impossible for them to take out the patent of the island country, absolutely impossible!”
”sure?”
Aiga Kangping said with some worry.
Aiga Ichiro nodded without hesitation and said, ”I'm pretty sure. I have asked Nakaharu Tsao again and again. He asked him to check all the publications and comics-related patents this year, and none of them match!”
”That's why we thought about it, Suzutaro, don't worry.”
Seeing Aiga Ichiro's confirmation, Aiga Yasuhei let out a sigh and said to Aiga Suzutaro with a smile.
However, Aiga Suzutaro remained unmoved, still frowned, still feeling confused.
”No, right? Since Jiuding Animation dared to continue opening stores and dared to take the initiative to file a lawsuit with the Tokyo Tribunal, they absolutely have the belief in victory, so they must have sufficient evidence to prove their copyright and believe that they can win the lawsuit.”
”Thinking about it in another way, if I am Ma Tengdong, and if we apply for an island country patent, then what hole cards are more useful than an island country patent?”
Thinking of this, Aga Suzutaro's alarm clock flashed a flash of lightning, and he blurted out: ”International patents?!”
”What international patent?”
Hearing Aiga Suzutaro's words blurted out, Aiga Ichiro was startled by his startled movements, and he subconsciously chanted again before he could react.
But immediately, he reacted, his face changed suddenly, and he said in disbelief: ”International patents registered in the United States?”
”Probably not, the people of Xiangjiang have very weak patent awareness, especially in the comics industry, which belong to cultural copyrights. It would be good if they would register Xiangjiang's patents. Why would they spend so much effort and energy to register international patents?”
Aiga Ichiro said questioningly, but it was more useful to cheer himself up, and he didn't have the confidence to speak.
”It's hard to tell!”
”If Jiuding Animation really has an international patent, then we will be invalidated even if we have an island patent.”
Aiga Suzutaro said solemnly and stabbed Aiga Ichiro again.
”But it's not right. If Jiuding Animation has an international patent, the Island State Patent Office will definitely not pass our patent application. It is impossible for Nakahartsov to remind us that no matter how much money is given to him, he will not have the courage to do this! ”
Aiga Ichiro retorted, subconsciously not wanting this to happen.
”This……”
Aiga Suzutaro was speechless for a while.
