Chapter 688 Patent Litigation

Sarah's schedule for this visit to America was very full, and he was able to squeeze out some time to meet Barron...

So after the two finally reached a tacit understanding, he and his wife Bruni said goodbye to Barron and left the manor.

Of course, Barron also noticed that Bruni looked at him with a lot of meaning before leaving.

This woman was really brave in front of her husband.

Barron didn't come here for fun this time. Although he was with Beatrice, he had many other things to do.

The next day, he left New York for Silicon Valley.

As for Beatrice, Barron was going to meet Ivanta, so he left the girl in New York.

Anyway, she wouldn't be bored in New York - Beatrice had a good female classmate who was from New York and would entertain her when the time came.

The female classmate who could play with Beatrice must have a good family background.

And when he left, Barron left a bodyguard for Beatrice. Although Barron didn't like going to nightclubs, he knew that girls of Beatrice's age still liked the hustle and bustle, but this was New York after all, so the necessary protection was still necessary.

After arriving in Silicon Valley, Barron arrived at his and Ivanta's "love nest" here, which was the villa where they had been living here before.

And Ivanta had been waiting here in advance.

"Why, so happy?"

"Of course, because I miss you, dear."

Seeing Ivanta with a sweet smile on her face, she threw herself into his arms after meeting. Barron knew that this should be more or less related to the news of his previous divorce.

Although Barron clearly told other women including Ivanta at that time that he would not enter into marriage again.

But at least after Barron's divorce, including Ivanta, they were able to walk out into the sun.

Because Barron has become single again, even if he was photographed with him, it can only be said to be a normal relationship.

As for Barron's many relationships...

He can only say, blame me?

Speaking of which, IC Capital's investments over the years have been very impressive, and it can be considered very outstanding among American investment companies.

The only shortcoming of this company at present is that it is too "new", unlike companies such as Sequoia Capital and even Goldman Sachs, which have a huge network of relationships.

Therefore, last year, IC Capital participated in the financing of Goldman Sachs Group and became a major shareholder of Goldman Sachs. With the help of Goldman Sachs' relationship, IC Capital can have a wider network of contacts in the upper class of America.

And the most important role of IC Capital for Barron is to use it to invest in some industries that are "restricted" in the United States.

Don't look at the fact that DS Holdings (Cavendish Trust) holds the controlling stake in Woaw now, this company can still develop well.

But if DS Group still directly holds most of the shares of YouTube and even Twitter in the future, you can try again...

Now he can use Ivanta, who is a native American Ansa Group, and IC Capital, managed by him, to invest in companies including Twitter.

In addition, it seems that the United States is an open market, and even foreigners can freely buy stocks of listed companies through their stock market.

But in fact, you can buy stocks of Microsoft, Google, and even Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, but if you buy their energy and military stocks... I'm afraid the FBI will come to your door soon to ask you what your intentions are.

Of course, Barron will not directly buy American energy and military enterprises - even if he wants to buy, it is probably difficult to achieve his goal - but through "vests" such as IC Capital, he can still invest in some companies that may face strict scrutiny from relevant American institutions.

The so-called short separation is better than a new marriage. After Barron met Ivanta, he naturally started to learn knowledge at her initiative...

Fortunately, Beatrice's fighting power was not strong in New York, so Barron still saved some strength.

Ivanta is completely different from Beatrice, which can be seen from her figure and body shape. Ivanta's figure is more mature, like a peach, and she has always insisted on exercising. In terms of physical strength, she is much better than Beatrice.

If Barron had not been gifted, he would have given up fighting with Ivanta in less than two rounds after studying with Beatrice every day in New York.

But now, Barron was able to support and learn from Ivanta in the learning of knowledge, and they exchanged ideas until after dark, when they almost finished this long learning period...

Well, if we were to rank the "learning abilities" of the women Barron is talking about now, Ivanta would be at the top.

"Android bought the GOS phones sold by Samsung and Motorola at the first opportunity, and conducted research..."

Ivanta lazily nestled in Barron's arms, telling him about the mobile phone operating system.

At the beginning of this year, Google launched their GOS system at a press conference, but smartphones equipped with this system were not available until June.

The first batch of GOS phones included Samsung and Motorola, and Android naturally started to study its competitors' products at the first opportunity.

"In terms of operation, the GOS system has similarities with the Android system and the iOS system, but there are also some differences. It seems that Google has spent a lot of effort to circumvent the relevant patent barriers of Android and Apple. However, there are still several places on the GOS system that are suspected of touching our relevant patents..."

"What is Android going to do?"

"Google is very smart. The places where they are suspected of violating patents are not easy to determine. If they are going to sue, then with their financial resources, they can afford it. On the contrary, it will increase the popularity of the GOS system..."

Ivanta said unhappily:

"But we can't just not respond to this kind of thing. We are going to sue them first."

This kind of thing is normal for such a technology company. After all, if the lawyer's fees are enough to cover the time saved and bring benefits, the other party is still very happy to respond.

"We had anticipated this, hadn't we?"

"Yes, Apple is also preparing a similar strategy to ours, filing a lawsuit against Google..."

Ivanta said:

"But the good news is that GOS phones are not yet a threat to us in terms of sales."
