When Eliza Moon returned to his villa in Palo Alto with fatigue, Ye Qiu was taking a shower and sitting outside the balcony of the living room. Facing the cool breeze blowing from the forest, his feet were directly raised to the balcony fence, without any image.

On the table beside him was a bottle of drunk red wine and two goblets.

"You are so leisurely." Eliza walked out of the living room with a smile and came to the balcony. She immediately felt a fresh air coming to her face, which made her feel as if she had lost all her worries.

Ye Qiutou didn't even look back, but stared at the dark forest in the distance in a daze.

This is one of the luxurious residential areas in Palo Alto. All the people living here are rich people in Palo Alto, and everyone knows that the most popular ones here are high-tech companies.

Silicon Valley is actually not just a place, but a region. The headquarters of many famous companies including Palo Alto, Google, etc. are here, and Yezi Technology's new headquarters is also here.

Ye Qiu has been staying at the headquarters these days. He discussed the development of Zeus' second-generation mobile phones with Jonathan Ivey, Andy Rubin and others. This mobile phone will add some light sensors and gyroscopes. Ye Zi Technology's gaming department will also launch several games in a targeted manner, many of which are inspired by Ye Qiu.

"I am called having fun in hardship," Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Eliza was so angry that she threw her hygienic eyes at him, but poured herself a glass of wine.

Ye Qiu bought this villa for her. Ye Zi Technology moved its new headquarters into Palo Alto, and Ye Qiu bought a luxury house here for Eliza, and she accepted it without hesitation. However, many times, Ye Qiu also lived here when he came to Silicon Valley. The two seemed to have returned to the same life as they rented in Amsterdam in the past.

"By the way, how is the patent restructuring going?" Ye Qiu broke the silence.

Eliza sat down beside him, with a table with red wine between them, "Do you think it's that fast?" There was a somewhat ambiguous and coquettish atmosphere in her tone.

Ye Qiu smiled at this and couldn't say anything more.

With more than 7,000 patent ownership and nearly 1,000 patent usage rights, it is quite difficult to combine these patents alone.

The main reason why Nortel Networks did not think of using patents to gain benefits is that their patents were too loose, but these patents were very high-quality patents, covering wireless networks, telecommunications exchanges, Internet routers, modems, personal computers, searches, social networks and semiconductors.

Such a large number of high-quality and diverse patents are a strange thing in itself. After Ye Qiu's previous life, these patents from Nortel Networks were later released, almost shocked the whole world. But now, they regard these outstanding ones as patents that can only be found in Bell Laboratories and IHN. It is wasted. One of the important reasons is that the structure of these patents is too loose.

Therefore, after Ye Qiu bought these patents, the first thing he needed to do was to integrate these patents and turn them into some patent combinations in a category, forming his own powerful patent weapon. In this way, whether it is for defense, authorization, or even attacking competitors, it is very powerful.

But the entire integration requires some process and also some means.

For example, when Shirley Sandberg convinced the government, he promised that the core purpose of Yezi Technology to buy these patents was to protect themselves, and at the same time promised to authorize patents to manufacturers in need as much as possible. Of course, this kind of authorization would be charged high fees.

However, Eliza Moon was considering the company's future. After all, no one could guarantee whether Yezi Technology would need to use these patents to combat some opponents who infringe on their patents in the future, so he decided to set up a new company to be responsible for operating the company's patents and the subsequent litigation.

Don't underestimate these patent lawsuits. Not long ago, Lucent sued Microsoft for infringing their NP3 patents and claiming $1.5 billion. Later, those patent lawsuits also cost hundreds of millions of dollars, which is very amazing.

Ye Qiu once saw some news that in 20 years, Qualcomm paid as much as $4 billion in patent fees each year, while IHN, the world's largest patent holder, charged more than one billion in patent fees per year.

As for the Android phones produced by Google in their previous life, Google itself actually failed to make much money. Instead, Microsoft earned much more money from its series of patent licenses than Google, which worked hard to develop the Android system.

It can be seen that patent wars are bound to become the biggest barrier for high-tech enterprises in the next few years.

Yezi Technology currently owns nearly 9,000 patents, which also allows Yezi Technology to successfully enter the ranks of industrial giants.

"We are currently hiring more than a dozen reverse engineers," Eliza said casually.

"Reverse Engineer?" Ye Qiu had never heard of this term.

Eliza smiled sweetly and glanced at him. Her talking eyes seemed to be saying, "You don't understand, too?"

"The job of a reverse engineer is to check the products and equipment such as routers, mobile phones, etc. on the market, and conduct reverse tracking and research from the finished products, inquire about whether there is any evidence of infringing our patents in these products, and collect them, and then negotiate with the company where the product is located. If the negotiations cannot be reached, a lawsuit will be filed."

Ye Qiu didn't know this detail, so he was wondering in his previous life how could those big companies know whether others infringed their patents? Especially thousands of patents

It turns out that they have special so-called reverse engineers studying this, and they really didn't expect it.

"Of course, we are still adopting a defensive strategy and taking the authorization route. For our competitors, we also hope to carry out the situation in a cooperative manner and share each other's patents with conditions." Eliza said confidently.

At least, whether it is in wireless communication technology, or in semiconductors, voice, the Internet, etc., Nortel Networks' series of patents are very core technologies. If you really want to fight a patent war, no one of them can escape, whether it is Microsoft, Intel, Apple or Google.

The more deeply you understand these patents, the huge market they represent, and the nearly monopoly power, the more deeply Eliza Moon discovered that Ye Qiu's acquisition was definitely a big profit.

"Next, we will negotiate with Google on patents for search and other businesses, and will also maintain the patent licensing business of Nortel Networks and some companies before, and further tap the potential."

Ye Qiu nodded. He didn't want Yezi Technology to become a patented monster, but there was a saying that was very good. If people don't offend me, I won't offend others. Everyone will be kind and make money, but if you offend me, I don't mind to kill you.

With these patents, more and more mobile phones and hardware manufacturers will be forced to tie up the Yezi Technology chariot, because even now, Apple's mobile phones have not been developed. Because Yezi Technology's previous R&D has set up layers of patent barriers for them, and losing Jonathan Ivey's hardware department, Apple's R&D capabilities have been greatly hit.

In the current mobile phone industry, especially in the smartphone field, Nokia is still the dominant player. Yezi Technology makes the most money, but the amount is not very large. However, Ye Qiu believes that with the launch of Zeus II, Nokia will be completely pushed from the altar. He is even happy to see that in the near future, he will successfully acquire Nokia's mobile phone business and the patents in Nokia's hands.

"Thank you, Eliza" Ye Qiu raised the goblet beside him.

After the two of them clinked the cups, Ye Qiu took a sip and suddenly said: "The company will carry out a number of important research and developments next, such as map business, tablets, smart TVs, smart systems in the car, etc., plus patent companies, I think you still need to be in charge of the United States."

Eliza nodded, and she also knew that the company was currently in a stage of rapid development and leapfrogging progress. Only when she was in North America could Ye Qiu feel at ease, "But what should Tottenham do?"

Although compared with Yezi Technology's total assets of tens of billions of dollars, Tottenham Hotspur is a drop in the bucket, whether for Ye Qiu or Eliza, Tottenham Hotspur and the agency company that has been renamed a sports service company have carried too much hope for them. That is a testimony to their possession from nothing to now, and it is also the fate between them.

"I have a suitable candidate. From now on, if you are promoted to vice chairman, I will find you another CPOU," Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Eliza seemed to notice who Ye Qiu was talking about, and curled her lips very cutely, "Do I have the ability to resist?"

"You don't want shares. Without shares, you have no say." Ye Qiu smiled and joked with her

He has never been stingy with Eliza and is even willing to give her more shares. Whether it is the sports service company where she already owns shares or the Yezi Technology where she does not own shares, she has always refused, and even Ye Qiu doesn't know why.

"You know, I'm not doing so many things for the sake of shares." Eliza looked at Ye Qiu, her eyes seemed to be glowing, making Ye Qiu's heart sway, as if something was hooked.

He knew, even he felt that it was not only him, but Huang Chu could detect it, even his parents.

Sometimes, he really felt that he owed Eliza too much, but he really didn't know what to do for some things, because he not only had Huang Chu, but also had two children, and he couldn't make any promises to her.

For Ye Qiu, family is the most important thing in his mind, so he can give up everything for this reason

Eliza also knew Ye Qiu's thoughts, but she had no intention of coercion. As she once said to Huang Chu, sometimes women are stupid. If you love a man, you don't have to possess him. If you see him well, you will feel good and satisfied.

So, she never thought about fighting for anything. Even though she seemed so smart, she cherished her feelings, Ye Qiu, and Huang Chu very much, because they were her best friends, even relatives.

Just when both of them were silent and a little awkward and ambiguous, Ye Qiu's cell phone rang, and it turned out to be Huang Chu.

"It must be little Huang Rong so early." Ye Qiu smiled and turned the caller ID towards Eliza, then nodded to Eliza, stood up and prepared to go back to the house, and also connected his cell phone.

This time in London should be morning.

"Why did you get up so early?" Ye Qiu asked his baby daughter on the phone.

Eliza did not turn around, but listened attentively to his drifting voice. She couldn't help but smile bitterly, but she just smiled bitterly, because she knew it would be like this from the beginning, but she never regretted it.

Ye Qiu stayed in the United States for eight days and completed an acquisition worth 800 million US dollars. The news immediately attracted the attention of media around the world, but in fact, he did nothing himself.

Ye Qiu was also helpless about this, but he could not stop the media from reporting on him, right?

After returning to London, Ye Qiu took a day off, and then the internationals began to return to the team one after another. The new round of intense schedule began. Two weeks later, Tottenham Hotspur's first opponent was Newcastle.

Newcastle is no longer the invincible Newcastle in the past few years. Today, the Magpies are a completely mid-range Premier League team, while Tottenham Hotspur is rising. Even if it is a away game, everyone still believes that Tottenham Hotspur is not a big problem to defeat its opponent.

But Tottenham Hotspur encountered old problems again. The team had not scored a goal for more than 20 minutes at the beginning, but Martins took the lead in breaking the Tottenham Hotspur goal and conceding the ball first at the beginning, which seemed to have become a stubborn disease for Tottenham Hotspur.

But Tottenham did not make the Magpie arrogant for long, but concealed the ball to stabilize Tottenham Hotspur. Before the first half was approaching the end of the first half, Ribery's goal helped Tottenham equalize the score.

After the start of the second half, Tottenham Hotspur bombarded in a round, and reversed Newcastle with the goals of Van Persie and Fabregas, which also allowed Tottenham Hotspur to complete a reversal again.

But just when the media was still struggling that Tottenham Hotspur always had a bad start, the team returned to London to face the third round of the Champions League group stage at home, Slavia, Prague, from the Czech Republic. This is also a very critical point-game for Tottenham Hotspur who lost in the first game in the group.

As a result, just 5 minutes into the game, Fabregas, who has performed well recently, took the lead in using one pass and then inserted it. The pass from Messi broke through the goal of Slavia Prague.

Then Vargas made a cross from the left, causing Slavia Prague's defender to own goal. Before the first half was about to end, Messi won another goal for Tottenham Hotspur, and the first half ended.

In the second half, Ribery, Fabregas, Messi and Carroll, who came on the bench, all scored goals one after another, eventually helping Tottenham Hotspur beat Slavia Prague at home, winning two consecutive wins in the group stage.

So far, there have been three rounds of the group stage, Valencia has won all three games in the group, Tottenham Hotspur has won two games and lost one, and the second in the group. These two teams are also the teams that are most promising to qualify from the group stage. As for the Bucharest Stars and Slavia Prague, they can only choose to compete for the League Cup qualification.

Back in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur welcomed Blackburn, but this time, Tottenham Hotspur played at home, seemed to have found the rhythm of the game and played steadily with Blackburn from the beginning.

Blackburn, who has the title of violent this, wanted to use active pressing and oppression to curb Tottenham's offense, but this set of tactics has been proven time and time again to have no effect. In the first minute, Yaya Toure's post-shot, and Tottenham's first record was scored.

In the 41st minute, Van Persie won another goal for Tottenham Hotspur, 0

After the start of the second half, Van Persie pulled the ball to the right and then shook the opponent's central defender Dunn, and shot with his left foot, and the ball went straight to the dead corner of the goal.

Following closely behind, Vargas, Ashavin and Cavani, who came on the bench, scored goals one after another. Tottenham Hotspur slaughtered Blackburn 0 at home, completing a big victory, and allowing everyone to see Tottenham Hotspur’s strong bench power.

The midweek saw the final 16 knockout match of the League Cup. Tottenham Hotspur welcomed Blackpool at home. Ye Qiu still played with a full substitute. Aaron Ramsey and Carroll scored goals to help Tottenham Hotspur defeat their opponents by 0, but the best performance in this game was Gareth Bale, who played the left winger.

Gareth Bale formed a left-hand attack combination with Marcelo in this game, and she performed very actively. The team's two goals were assisted by Gareth Bale, one of which was a sudden back-kick to assist Aaron Ramsey on the left, and the other was a free kick to assist Carol.

With the outstanding performance of this group of young players, Tottenham Hotspur reached the quarterfinals of the League Cup with his head held high, and this time they met Manchester City.

Over the weekend, Tottenham Hotspur beat Wigan 40 at home. Just 35 minutes before the first half, Tottenham Hotspur took the lead with Ribery's double score and Messi's goal.

After a significant lead in the first half, Ye Qiu began to make substitution adjustments to retain strength for the mid-week Champions League group stage. In the second half, Wigan also found it difficult to threaten Tottenham Hotspur. Instead, in the first minute, Cavani, who replaced Van Persie, finally broke through Wigan's goal and scored the fourth goal for the team.

After defeating Wigan 40, the team rushed to the Czech Republic to challenge Slavia Prague away. In the end, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Slavia Prague away with goals from Alves, Van Persie and Ashavin.

But when the team returned to the Premier League, they drew with Middlesbrough away.

So far, the Premier League has held a total of thirteen rounds. Tottenham Hotspur has scored seven wins, two draws and two losses, ranking sixth in the Premier League with two points in the game. In front of Tottenham Hotspur is Liverpool, who has scored points in one round less.

Currently, the top spot is Arsenal, which has 30 points with Manchester United. The goal difference between the two teams is the same, but Arsenal scores more goals, ranking first, Manchester United second, followed by Manchester City, Chelsea, and the Blues have steadily improved after the coach changes.

Of course, this is also because both Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur play one and two rounds less. Otherwise, with the current results of Chelsea, it is not certain whether they can maintain the top four in the league.

Moreover, with the series of fluctuations brought about by Mourinho after he was dismissed, Chelsea insiders began to feel some of their hearts.

The most eye-catching news is that Frank Arnesen went from being the former head of scouting department to the team's technical director. After Grant was promoted to the head coach position, he seemed to have become the second most powerful player in Chelsea.

As the two major interest allies took over the greatest power in Chelsea's athletics field, Pini Zahavi, the Israeli who was originally suppressed by Mourinho and Mendes, began to become active again and became the number one person in Chelsea's external poaching. Some even said that Pini Zahavi had the final say who Chelsea would introduce during the winter break.

Whether the Blues want to sign up is no longer a question that needs to be discussed. Everyone knows the current problems that Chelsea have. Even if Grant performed well after taking office, in fact, they are still relying on their parents. The team's key problems have not been solved at all. Sooner or later, this will be a problem.

After Abramovich announced Mourinho's resignation, he took the initiative to stand up and expressed his full support to Grant. However, no one knew whether Mourinho resigned or was fired. Chelsea officials did not give any explanation, so the outside world could only rely on speculation.

But during the major changes in Chelsea's senior management, Peter Kenyon has never appeared, which has made many people curious about the Manchester man's position after the big changes in Chelsea's management.

Many newspapers have disclosed that in this change, Peter Kenyon had been excluded by Abramovich, and the differences between the two can be traced back to when Abramovich wanted to introduce Shevchenko and Barack. Peter Kenyon, like Ye Qiu, was opposed, which planted a gap between the two.

"It is revealed that Peter Kenyon is likely to leave Stamford Bridge after fulfilling his contract with Chelsea this year, which also announces that the magnificent slogan Abramovich shouted when he took over Chelsea and wanted to create another Manchester United empire was completely declared a failure."

Because if Ye Qiu's departure indicates a failure at the competitive level, then Peter Kenyon's departure will declare a failure at the management level. If this happens, Chelsea will inevitably usher in greater changes.

Especially after announcing Grant to put out the fire, Abramovich expressed his hope that Chelsea will become a financially healthy team, which also implies that he will continue to take a tightening attitude towards the team.

Many media say that this may also be a sign of Chelsea bid farewell to the Premier League throne.
