Global Monopoly of Technology

On January 12, 2015, Cote d'Azur published an article on its official website and blog at the same time, "All technical patents of Cote d'Azur pure electric vehicles are open", declaring: In the spirit of the open source movement, we open up our The patented technology aims to attract more outstanding engineers to enter this field and promote the advancement of electric vehicle technology together.

At the same time, the news article stated that as long as anyone wants to use the patented technology related to the pure electric vehicle of the Côte d’Azur in good faith, Côte d’Azur will not initiate a patent infringement lawsuit against it.

When the news came out, the whole industry exploded.

Overnight, Côte d'Azur won the industry and domestic media such evaluations and praise as "subversion", "unprecedented", "creative with great courage and pattern", and "respectable".

However, although overseas international media reported on this matter on a large scale, there were not many positive praises. There is absolutely no reason to be happy.

And various analysis and interpretation articles and industry interview programs have emerged together.

...

Science and Technology Complex Building, afternoon tea time.

Luo Sheng was watching an interpretation program related to him at this time.

Moderator: "According to one of our surveys, Côte d'Azur has accumulated more than 1,700 patented technologies, these patents are mainly concentrated in the fields of electric vehicle battery structure, battery management, generator and open source vehicle operating system. For important and even core technologies in the electric vehicle industry, and even the 'lifeblood' that affects the life and death of electric vehicle manufacturers, manufacturers usually set up the Accord protection mechanism for patents."

"So, why is Cote d'Azur so generous? Is it just to strike down the recent scalpers and speculators to balance the market price and benefit consumers? Or is this Luo Sheng's personal heroism?"

Analysis of industry guests: "Scalpers and futures speculators may have certain factors involved, but they do not have such great energy, and this is not Luo Sheng's impulsive act to reflect his personal heroism. I think this should be Wei Lan. The important strategic decisions made by the Coast's Board of Directors after careful consideration have a deeper strategic vision behind them."

Moderator: "I would like to hear the details."

Guest analysis: "One of the strategies is to leverage the development of the industry through open patents, and then strengthen itself. Although the industry has various views on the open patent incident on the Côte d'Azur, especially doubts whether its open patents can be effectively transplanted and used, but Objectively, this event will definitely be a catalyst for accelerating the development of the global electric vehicle industry. As Yao Jianhong said at the press conference held on the same day: The open source of the patent is to allow more people to participate in the research and development of pure electric vehicle technology through open source, and further promote pure electric vehicle technology. The development of electric vehicles.”

Moderator: "But the problem is that this seemingly 'a long way to go' job is not the responsibility or obligation of the Côte d'Azur as a company, why should it promote the development of the electric vehicle industry?"

Industry guests: "From the perspective of the whole industry, the global sales of fuel vehicles exceeded 80 million last year, while the sales of electric vehicles were only 33,200. It can be seen that the proportion of electric vehicles in the entire automobile industry is It is very low, and it is still in the development stage of the industry. Luo Sheng has a clear understanding of this situation. The scale of electric vehicle projects among large automakers is very small, and some of them have not even developed such businesses at all."

"The premise of precise strategy formulation is to accurately grasp the development stage of the company and the industry. From this point of view, the idea of ​​​​Côte d'Azur to promote the development of the industry by opening up patents is undoubtedly accurate."

"The second strategy is to improve the universality of its technical standards through open patents.

Weilan Electric Vehicle fully embodies the Internet spirit of 'openness, equality, collaboration and sharing' on the issue of open source. "

"People are more willing to believe that Luo Sheng's bold approach is definitely not only for building a 'common and rapid development of technology platform' and embodying the spirit of the Internet, but behind this incident is his attempt to control the pure electric vehicle industry. Great ambition for future development.”

"For the electric vehicle industry, which is generally in its infancy, the biggest problem at present is that the market standards of various manufacturers are not uniform, especially in terms of battery technology and charging technology, there are different standards that are very different. In the war, a piece of loose sand also attacked each other, which led to traditional fuel vehicles sitting on the Diaoyutai to watch the show."

"Luo Sheng wants to change this situation. Objectively speaking, due to the current technological advantages of Côte d'Azur and the established brand awareness, its patented technology is an 'unstoppable temptation' for many manufacturers. Competitors seem to suffer, but in fact, once the opponent adopts its patented technology, it is equivalent to being included in the 'common technology platform' built by the Côte d'Azur, and the final results will improve the universality of Côte d'Azur technical standards."

The host continued: "The final result of this strategy is likely to be the Côte d'Azur being elected to the 'throne' of the industry standard setter."

Industry guests: "Yes, if Côte d'Azur can continue to maintain its existing technological advantages and scale advantages, then there is no doubt that Côte d'Azur will become the master of industry development in the near future. The technical standard of the company is no less than a strategic choice of its own destiny, but neither choice seems to be satisfactory."

Host: "After all, it's still a matter of core technology."

When An Qingxue came to the living room, Luo Sheng hooked her hand. Sister Qingxue, who had been with her for many years, understood in an instant, and immediately came to sit next to him.

Luo Sheng often took advantage of the trend to go on her fair thighs, and Qingxue rubbed her with a massage. She looked at Luo Sheng, who was enjoying the comfort with her eyes closed. She then turned to the talk show. At this time, the industry guest continued. "From an overall analysis, there are at least three things to learn from the Cote d'Azur open patent incident," said Mr.

Host: "Which three points?"

Guest: "First, the act of opening up patents on the Côte d'Azur inspires everyone that the value of knowledge such as patents and technologies owned by enterprises does not lie in itself, but how to make these elements a competitive advantage is the key."

"Second, the idea of ​​Côte d'Azur to achieve self-development by promoting the development of the industry is probably a realm that is difficult for many companies to achieve. Compared with the zero-sum game competition that is staged every day in the business world, we have to admit that Côte d'Azur And Luo Sheng himself already has the ambition and grand pattern to become the leader of this industry. He gave me the feeling that Luo Sheng is not leading an excellent enterprise to forge ahead, but is leading an emerging industry to forge ahead. "

"Third, Cote d'Azur strives to become an industry standard setter by attracting competitors to join a common technology platform, which tells us that in the Internet age, the elements of organization, technology, knowledge and other elements in the industry will be in a borderless state, and important It is no longer a matter of which company is larger, but which company can build an effective and viable strategic platform that allows the entire industry and its elements to operate reasonably on this platform, then the company has become a The organizers and leaders of the entire industry have been proven in the Azure business platform, and the idea of ​​​​the Cote d'Azur will undoubtedly fully reflect the business thinking of the Internet era."

The host smiled and said, "We can't ignore that Luo Sheng started out on the Internet."

An Qingxue watched the show while rubbing and said, "Brother Luo, this person is not simple."

Luo Sheng, who was enjoying himself with his eyes closed, said calmly, "Is there? Why didn't I see that he was not easy."

An Qingxue smiled lightly, nodded lightly and said, "Yes, this is the company's strategy."

Luo Sheng opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling, and said, "But what he said is quite reasonable. I open technology patents, which is a dilemma for friends and businessmen. If I join, it will help me become an industry development. masters, and people are characterized by an unwillingness to be handicapped."

Qingxue Meizhi looked down at Luo Sheng, and said with a smile, "Brother Luo must have expected this, so there must be a way for them to join in obediently."

Luo Sheng smiled and said nothing, closed his eyes and continued to enjoy the massage service brought by Qingxue sister paper.

That's right, this is just the first punch of the whole set of punches.

the next day.

Côte d'Azur once again announced the big news. The company announced that all the open technology patents are free and open for free, that is to say, the epic series is free.

As soon as the news came out, it set off huge waves in the whole industry.

Aren't those manufacturers now hesitant? It is not that I am afraid that the technical standards of the Côte d'Azur will become universal and eventually become the leader and controller of the industry.

Well, Luo Sheng's move is really a bloodbath. If you don't have to, then I will support the rise of new car-making forces. They can rise rapidly by joining this platform with the help of the free technology opened by the Cote d'Azur.

If you don't join, someone will join in. The stupid bird will fly first. If you don't join, you won't even be able to drink soup.

In a sense, when the big killer move of free is released, it is said that it allows existing competitors to choose. In fact, they have no choice. This kind of conspiracy is the most desperate.
