Chapter 485 The Entrance of the 3rd Sang
Chapter 485 The Entrance of the 3rd Sang
"What a cause for celebration! This scoundrel of a company has finally been punished, and China's technology is sure to develop rapidly from now on."
"Of course, things will definitely be better without the troublemaker."
"I wonder if any country has targeted their panel manufacturing and contract manufacturing, as this industry also has monopolies... to make them obediently hand over their quadruple exposure technology..."
This is a good thing that benefits the entire industry.
"Something's not right upstairs. Tag Guangzhou Cyber Police."
"Damn, this is a complete and utter smear campaign..."
But I'm curious, why don't people overseas learn from their mistakes? They still dare to use telepathy.
"The person upstairs has learned their lesson, so this time it's not the Americans making a move. I bet they're figuring out how to reap the rewards now. [doge emoji]"
"When will Inuya retaliate? I want to see the black slave strike! [head]"
Under these circumstances, England also found that things had gone beyond their expectations and wanted to try to salvage the situation, but the die was cast.
Fortunately, their support arrived!
On April 29th, in Seoul, South Korea, Samson Electronics announced an emergency press conference.
Han Jianhua, the vice president of Sansang Display, was brought forward. In front of media from all over the world, he announced that he had officially filed patent lawsuits in South Korea, China, and the European Union.
This is the second time they have sued Transsion's subsidiary, Transsion Panel, for infringing on eight core OLED patents held by Sansang.
Including pixel arrangement structure!
Indeed, Sansang is still not giving up on the diamond arrangement. After such a long period of dormancy, they have finally launched another attack. This time, they want to reclaim their diamond arrangement and ban the sale of all infringing products worldwide.
They are also seeking an additional $3.2 million in damages.
"The anti-monopoly investigation in Hong Kong and Taipei has once again uncovered patent infringement. Transsion has really committed numerous evils. I hope it will be thoroughly exposed and destroyed."
"I told you that domestic technology is all copied, and now it's been proven true, hasn't it?"
It's likely that a settlement will be reached out of court. As for why San Sang was bullied, it's obviously because of some unseen force manipulating things behind the scenes.
"Anti-monopoly case first, patent lawsuit next, that's what a big brand is like. I want to know how Transsion will respond."
In the Transsion conference room, all the senior executives were present, and the atmosphere remained relatively calm in the face of this sudden attack.
After all, they're just a bunch of rotten fish and shrimp, nothing to be afraid of.
"San Sang is kicking someone when they're down; he's a complete pawn."
The person in charge of the audio transmission panel was there, swearing and cursing.
"Their patents are the same ones from last time, they're completely untenable, they're just trying to disgust us with their public opinion."
"Trying lawsuits again? Should we just beat them up?"
Shen Fei sat in the main seat and listened quietly to everyone's reports:
"If they want to play, then play along with them to the very end."
The Ministry of Justice responded to the lawsuit according to procedure, while the European antitrust investigation was handled by a dedicated team.
As for patent litigation…
He looked up at the Minister of Justice beside him: "If they want to target us, then it's time for us to put our evidence to the test."
In the afternoon, Transsion Holdings held a global online press conference to launch its counterattack.
This is also Lu Weibin's first public appearance!
Representing the Transsion Panel team, he transformed into a vocal critic, refuting each of Sansang's eight patent allegations on stage, and then attaching complete patent technology tracing documents.
He also attached the results of the previous court hearing.
As it turns out, San Sang's lawsuit was malicious.
"Faced with this situation, the young men in our legal department are eager to make a difference. If our competitors remain incorrigible, we will fight back with all our might."
This time it's not as simple as just paying out 500 million.
Lu Weibin's words instantly made the South Korean reporters present feel a little uncomfortable.
After all, the last time San Sang devised a perfectly executed counterattack plan, it resulted in first betrayal by its partner... and then local courts bowing down under threats from China...
Just as they were mentally boosting their morale, Lu Weibin suddenly laughed.
"Speaking of patent infringement, we have something to explain to everyone."
"Sansang recently launched a diamond-like E2 series OLED screen, which advertises its third-generation dynamic burn-in resistance technology... I wonder if anyone remembers it?"
This statement made the South Korean reporter raise his head!
They immediately started whispering among themselves, while constantly taking out their phones to search for information about the technology.
"I think I vaguely remember it."
"Hmph! Have you felt our research and development capabilities? South Korea has never lost to any country, especially China. Give us three more years, and we will definitely catch up completely!"
Just as these guys, whose brains had been ruined by eating too much kimchi, were feeling smug, Lu Weibin instantly slapped them in the face.
"This technology should be familiar to most people."
Because it does significantly improve the efficiency of anti-burn-in, this technology was not developed by Sansang itself.
Because its technical principle overlaps with that of the pixel dynamic refresh compensation algorithm, a global invention patent applied for by CSOT Panel in 2012, is as high as 92%, and the core parameters are exactly the same.
"Fake!"
The South Korean reporter was about to retort when he was immediately pulled back by the security team next to him!
Just as they were trying to emphasize that they were journalists.
The screen clearly displays the patent application date, technical schematics, algorithm logic comparisons, etc.
It can be said that, apart from not providing screenshots of the third-party internal testing documents, they have presented all other evidence.
Hua Xing still used irrefutable evidence to crush them.
"We have filed a lawsuit with the Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court against Sansang for plagiarizing Huaxing's patents, demanding that Sansang immediately cease the production and sale of all infringing panels."
And compensate for economic losses totaling 17 billion Chinese yuan.
The press conference lasted for about 40 minutes, but public opinion shifted in an instant.
"Damn it, the thief is crying 'stop thief!' So it was San Sang who copied the telepathic communication technology, and he still has the nerve to accuse us first?"
"How dare he?"
"Why wouldn't they dare? They have powerful backers. If the plagiarism is confirmed, wouldn't they be the ones who benefit?"
"No wonder this generation of E2 is so awesome. Some experts on the forum had speculated that it was plagiarized, and it turned out to be true!"
The panels on the Sansang screen are getting worse and worse!
"I haven't heard this name in a long time. I think the last time was when the Transsion Panel was released."
Under the influence of this wave of public opinion, a large number of netizens flooded the official account of Sansang China branch, and all commented "King of Plagiarism".
South Korea's stock price, which had surged 2.5% (a full 100%) due to the lawsuit against Sansang Electronics, has now evaporated by 7.3%, resulting in a loss of over $10 billion in market value.
Meanwhile, Huang Tianya in Huaxin Investment's office watched the plummeting K-line chart on the screen.
Since Lu Weibin has already started a fire, let's add fuel to the fire.
