Eastern Time, Tuesday, October 9th.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Xiao Qi sat in a coffee shop, drinking milk, eating hot dogs, and reading the fax that Mario brought.

Half a year ago, Xiao Qi applied for a total of 120 patents. Now that the results of the first phase have come out, the ones that can enter the second round, which means that more than half of the patents that no one has applied for before, are actually more than half.

The 32 approved invention patents and 52 design patents were displayed in front of Xiao Qi through fax paper one by one.

Xiao Qi laughed as he looked at it.

Mario was a little nervous at first, but seeing the little boss smiling so happily, he suddenly felt half calm.

"How's it going? Are we sure we can reconcile with Apple?" he said hopefully.

"Reconciliation?" Xiao Qi smiled slightly again, "Apple underestimated us too much. I didn't expect that they couldn't even apply for... these patents... Hahaha, God help me!"

No wonder he was excited.

To give a very simple example, the four design patents for Apple's iPhone are very classic and representative. Xiao Qi originally had the attitude of giving it a try and applied for it. In fact, he did not overdo it.

, but I didn’t expect that it had actually passed the “no similar application” review.

Heaven testifies that in the previous life, Apple only relied on four design patents such as front, back, rectangular and rounded shapes, and display main screen. I don’t know how many mobile phones were killed.

Samsung, Nokia, Motorola and HTC, etc., are tortured by this set of four patents and almost want to cry!

Several high-selling mobile phones in later generations have never been sold in the mainland United States for this reason. You can imagine how classic and unique the design of this first-ever smartphone is.

It’s easy to set up obstacles for people!!

There is also a double-click zoom function. This logical design is originally a function created by Apple to compensate for the pinch gesture. When browsing pictures, web thumbnails, etc., a double-click can switch between zooming in and out. I believe Xiao Qi doesn’t need to explain this great weapon.

, people who are accustomed to using smartphones will know how commonly used it is, and it is almost a level that cannot be bypassed by the touch function!

In addition, there are functions that include many important patents for iPhone and iPad. Gang leader Qiao didn’t even apply in advance, so he got Xiao Qi, a super thief, at an advantage!!

Thinking about the rumors of later generations, Gang Leader Qiao should have started to apply for patents one after another half a year before the release of iPhone. iPhone was released in January 2007. It is estimated that the time when Gang Leader Qiao started to apply for large-scale applications. It should be in

Around June.

Even though there are many patents that have been applied for since they are related to iPod and iMac, many of the essential iPhone and iPad patents have still fallen into Xiao Qi’s hands.

As a latecomer, Xiao Qi knows how much the iPhone means to the Apple empire and Gang Leader Qiao.

If the iPhone cannot be released and sold smoothly because of the patents in its hands, I am afraid that the entire Apple may collapse.

With such results, Xiao Qi now let go of his only worry and started eating breakfast.

Three hours later, Apple headquarters in California, USA.

Although it is already autumn, the sunshine in California is still very bright. Just walking on the street will give people the joy of bathing in the sunshine.

Looking back now, Xiao Qi's spirit was so weak in his previous life that he didn't collapse in the end. I'm afraid half of the credit must be attributed to the sunshine that shines brightly all year round.

Whether it is the dormitory, the laboratory, or the school garden, the bright sunshine is everywhere, which will naturally give Xiao Qi positive energy and help him dispel the accumulated haze in his heart.

Jobs was sitting in his spacious office, closing his eyes and thinking about things.

He is a devout Buddhist who once traveled all over India alone. He has a deep understanding of Buddhist philosophy. In fact, whether it is an iPod, iPhone or iPad, there is some Buddhist flavor in it.

"Bang bang!"

Tim, the most trusted CEO of Gang Leader Qiao, knocked on the door and said loudly into the intercom: "Stephen, there are guests coming to visit."

Jobs opened his eyes, with a flash of displeasure in his eyes, but he also understood that according to Tim's cautious character, if he dared to disturb him at this time, there must be something important.

In other words, Tim felt that this person had a lot of background and he should go and meet him.

Picking up the remote control and pressing the button to open the door, Tim, who likes to wear plaid shirts like Steve Jobs, walked in.

He knew that Jobs didn't like people talking nonsense, so he said directly: "Stephen, Xiao Qi, the chairman of Fairy Company, is here and wants to see you."

"Fairy Company?" Jobs smiled coldly, "What makes you think I would meet such a person?"

"He said he had something very important to discuss with you..."

"Let him go back!" Jobs interrupted Tim, "I will only meet him under one circumstance, and that is in the ITC debate court!"

Tim didn't walk away, he looked at Jobs and sighed.

In the blink of an eye, he handed over an envelope he was holding in his other hand, "That young man knew you would say this and expected every word. So he asked me to hand over the envelope when you said this.

for you."

For the first time, Jobs was a little surprised.

After hesitating for a moment, Jobs took the envelope and pulled out a piece of paper.

After just one glance, Jobs suddenly stood up, his face instantly turning livid.

"Where is he? Where is this bastard!?" Jobs growled at Tim.

His expression was so ferocious that it frightened people who were often around him like Tim and couldn't help but shudder.

"Mr. Xiao is in the company's reception room..."

"We'll go there right away... No, I'll wait for him here... Let's go to the president's living room... No, no, the more secretly the better..."

Jobs kept denying his decision. Tim had not seen this hesitant, angry but horrified expression on him for many years.

With his face uncertain for a long time, Jobs finally made a decision, "Tim, let's ask him to come to my office...except for you, don't let anyone know about it for the time being."

"OK."

After Tim agreed, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he looked at Jobs with concern: "Stephen, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"

Jobs had an operation a few years ago and lost weight after that. People around him were a little worried about his health.

After shaking his hand, Jobs said tiredly: "It doesn't matter to me. You can go do your work. Remember what I said, don't let too many people know!"

"Know!"

Anticipating that things would not be simple, Tim became more curious about the mysterious Chinese boy. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support.
