When Jordan wells of Maryland is excited and happy to receive this big surprise, realize his dream, and feel proud and grateful for his idol, Andy, a good man, has no time to pay too much attention to this matter.

It's not that he doesn't want to see his fans, it's mainly this small wish to raise his hand. It's really a small thing for him.

Of course, he can also imagine how excited and happy the girl will be for this. Seriously, his wealth accumulation has become a pure digital game, giving benefits to fans. Although there is a bit of his own evil interest in it, I hope that the fate of some people can be changed or reversed due to some of his small kindness.

He never thought about getting other people's gratitude, not to earn a good reputation among fans, to be hyped by the media and so on, but more of all, he hoped that his small philanthropy could make people happy, share his happiness, and make himself happy.

San Diego, California.

“。。。 Nokia, Ericsson and other six companies that complained to the European Union made some concessions in the negotiation, but still hope we can reduce the patent fees.

Bonzi officials still insist that we treat customers differently, charge some of them higher fees, and refuse to terminate the anti-monopoly investigation

In the conference room of Qualcomm headquarters, Andy listened to the report of Qualcomm's legal department. As the only technology company in the world with more lawyers than engineers, Qualcomm's legal department is definitely the most equipped and busy department.

Well, basically, Qualcomm's legal department is not idle.

Of course, these two antitrust investigations are just two of the most influential in a series of Qualcomm lawsuits. Qualcomm faces various lawsuits, including losing and winning. For example, it lost nearly $900 million to Broadcom in the first two years.

To be honest, if the general it company doesn't do anything else all day, just fight a lawsuit and lose hundreds of millions of dollars, it will pay compensation to the outside world. TM has already changed its business thinking, but Qualcomm just hired a large number of professional lawyers to do these things.

"It's the 3G era!"

Andy's mouth turned up, and after scanning the faces of Qualcomm executives in the conference room for a week, he said with deep meaning.

Yes, it's the 3G era. Before the 2G era, it was the world of GSM. At that time, Qualcomm had no monopoly right to speak.

But now, it's totally different. No matter what WCDMA, CDMA2000... All these 3G standards are closely related to CDMA.

So, any manufacturer involved in 3G technology in any country can't bypass their Qualcomm patented technology. The six mobile phone manufacturers who complained to the European Union were a little tough on the tone of Andy Smith, the new chairman of the board, but delivered a letter willing to sit down and talk, and they agreed without hesitation.

As for Bonzi, Andy was very clear about Bonzi's government's little thoughts, so he quickly made a decision, "since they don't want to face it, let them investigate it, even if they lose as expected, they don't want to get a fine, and always appeal!"!

By the way, the public relations department can increase its lobbying to Washington, contact the mainstream media, and give Bonzi some lessons. This is trade protectionism. Last week, at the meeting of finance ministers and central bank governors of the group of seven countries, all countries emphasized their opposition to trade protectionism. Combined with the whole semiconductor industry of the four-star company, this is obviously local protection! "

"OK, chairman."

Andy takes a look at the director of the public relations department who responds in a hurry, nods his head with satisfaction and teaches Bonzi a lesson, which is imperative.

Although Qualcomm's high taxes are really rogue, many countries and manufacturers hate it.

You should know that one of the top three terms of Qualcomm tax is that patent fees are charged based on the overall base.

That is to say, a $100 mobile phone needs to pay Qualcomm five dollars, even if it is worth one billion dollars to build a plane. If it uses Qualcomm's chip, it needs to pay Qualcomm 50 million dollars......

It's black and tough!

Andy is very clear about these situations, but he will never change them. It's a wise decision made by Qualcomm in the early days, and it's a very valuable legacy for Andy who has become the chairman of the board. Isn't that what he bought Qualcomm for?

Now, Bonzi noodles are going to challenge Qualcomm's "standards" and don't chop off their outstretched paws. In the future, more countries will be envious of Qualcomm tax and conduct antitrust investigations and "fines" against Qualcomm.

In particular, the local protection of Bangzi has always been regarded as one of the "characteristics of Bangzi". Of course, it can also be regarded as a kind of patriotic psychology of Bangzi, formed by the protection of their own culture and economy.

However, in the high-tech fields such as mobile phones, they still face a serious risk of invasion despite having the first and second tier mobile phone manufacturers such as four-star and LG.

Not to mention that Qualcomm was targeted by the government of Bangzi with anti-monopoly weapons, even apple was also treated like this, even more seriously than Qualcomm.Due to the global popularity of crazy cell phones, Apple's Bonzi division is under investigation by antitrust agencies. Bonzi government claims that Apple has the suspicion of forcing operators to sign unequal treaties.

Because Apple's contracts forced operators to sign in Bangzi country contain various "minimum sales" figures. This is also the reason Apple was investigated by the French anti-monopoly agency earlier. In fact, it is the carrier agreement that affects the sales of local mobile phones in essence.

Is there a very familiar feeling about the exclusive sale of operators and channels?

After the two-hour meeting, Andy went back to the chairman's office, took out another hour, interviewed ten assistants, leaving five of them to form his assistant team in Qualcomm, so that he could command remotely at any time in his absence.

Of course, the assistant with professional ability is definitely selected. After all, a close-up assistant is enough.

Towards noon, Andy finished his work, took his bodyguards to the tarmac on the top of the building, sat in a helicopter, and flew to his free City mansion.

Dada -

Ivana stands on the viewing platform made of steel and glass. Her long blonde hair and sky blue floral skirt are floating with the sea wind. The helicopter slowly lands in the air. When it stops, Andy steps down from the helicopter and waves to Ivana with a smile.

"Didi --"

as Andy walked quickly to the mansion, he changed the mobile phone mode and soon heard the WhatsApp prompt.

“。。。。。。 ‘ Oh, my god。。。 Oh, my God, God, this is... Wuwu. "

Watching the video of the girl excited and happy beyond his control, Andy's face showed the same happy smile.

Give someone a rose and have a fragrance in your hand!

"Honey, what makes you so happy?"

At this time, Ivana just stepped down the stairs and saw Andy smiling at his cell phone very happily, with a sunny smile.

"The girl in Maryland was surprised by the surprise we gave her. This video is a picture taken by her family..." Andy hands Ivana his cell phone.

Ivana's sweet smile, watching the video from Jordan wells to take over the letter after all the process, the smile on her face more gentle and sweet.

"Giving happiness to others is the best way to harvest happiness. Those who sow happiness are the most likely to get happiness themselves.

Dear, you are a nice guy! "

Andy shakes his head and laughs. He reaches for Ivana's waist and kisses her on the red Chun.

"Treading --"

at this time, Martin came in from the outside and said to Andy who looked at him: "boss, here are the two pickup trucks you want, and the flatbed trailer."

Ivana raises her eyebrows and looks at Andy. Andy laughs and shakes his head and explains, "I can't really use super to carry all the time. There are still six or seven hundred luggage bags. Seriously, I'm crazy. I can use a trailer. Why do I carry them with my hands..."

"Pooh -"

"ha ha..." Ivana couldn't help laughing, her smile was full of twists and turns.
