Having found the crux of the problem, Lawyer Zhao knew what to do next. Before leaving, he further confirmed certain details to Dr. Tong. Tong Wei assured him that even if there were some changes to the technology development of the Changda Group Test Center,

Help, and will not let the relevant personnel of the New Materials Research Institute know.

Lawyer Zhao and his party returned to the Research Department of the institute again. After meeting with the staff member who received him in the morning, he first asked: "Can I meet your director?"

"You mean you want to see the director of our scientific research department? If you have anything, you can tell me directly!" The staff member did not want to agree to Lawyer Zhao's request.

"With all due respect, as an ordinary staff member, I'm afraid you won't be able to decide on some matters." Lao Zhao said bluntly.

"I am in charge of the external exchange business of the Scientific Research Office. What matters can't be decided by me?" The staff member disagreed with Lao Zhao's words.

"If Changda Group wants to resolve this matter through legal channels, can you respond? Besides, you are not a legal person, and you are not qualified to respond!" Lao Zhao defeated the other party.

"This----, it's impossible for me to respond to the lawsuit, but did Changda Group tell you that it would solve the problem through legal means?"

"It depends on the situation. If you insist on going your own way, there is no other way except legal means! Of course, if we can sit down and discuss, the matter does not have to go to court. So, you decide what happens next.

No, we must meet with the relevant leaders of the New Materials Research Institute." Lawyer Zhao said.

"Okay, I'll make an announcement, please wait a moment." After the staff went out, it took more than ten minutes before they came back. Behind him was a middle-aged man who was nearly sixty years old and had some gray and sparse hair. "Yao Chu

Chief, these three are representatives sent by Changda Group, Lawyer Zhao, and this is Director Yao of our Scientific Research Department." After entering the room, the staff introduced.

Lao Zhao and the other three stood up and shook hands with Director Yao, "Please sit down." While greeting the other party to sit down, Lao Yao himself pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Lao Zhao and the others, "Lawyer Zhao, can you please

Can you explain your purpose of coming?"

"We are the authorized agent of Changda Group. We came to the New Materials Research Institute this time mainly to discuss with you the report on Changda Group's patents."

"Agent? Does it mean that the main leaders of Changda Group are not planning to come forward?"

"They are busy with their affairs and have entrusted us with full authority to handle this matter."

"Oh----, in that case, what are you going to do?"

"First of all, we want to know the purpose and basis of the New Materials Research Institute's report. Only when we understand the cause of the matter can we decide what to do." Lawyer Zhao said.

Director Yao repeated the same idea as the previous staff member, "We believe that the technology applied for patent by Changda Group has the contribution of the New Materials Research Institute, and it is inappropriate for them to exclude us from the patent signature.

"

"But according to our understanding, the New Materials Research Institute has not made any contribution to the development of Changda Group's waste battery recycling and processing technology."

Lao Yao once again repeated his old tune, "Without the battery project of the New Materials Research Institute and Changda Group, they would not be able to come up with the idea of ​​recycling used batteries. In addition, our Dr. Tong has communicated with them about their technology development work.

Guidance. For these two reasons, shouldn’t we enjoy some ownership of the patent?”

"Director Yao, if these two reasons are true, it is natural for the New Materials Research Institute to request to share patent rights. The problem is that after our investigation and analysis, the two reasons you mentioned are not true. Therefore, Changda Group

The problem with patent signature is that we did nothing wrong,” said Lawyer Zhao.

"This is just your unilateral view. Our view is exactly the opposite of yours."

"No matter what your opinion is, you have to let the facts speak for themselves in the end. First of all, the New Materials Research Institute believes that without your previous cooperation projects with Changda Group, there would be no subsequent creativity of Changda Group. We think this view is untenable.

Because Changda Group's later ideas have no logical relationship with the previous cooperation projects. As a scientific research manager, Director Yao certainly knows that only subsequent technologies that are an extension or derivative of previous technologies will meet the logical relationship you mentioned.

The Changda Group’s creativity in recycling and processing used batteries is obviously not related to the previous cooperation projects.”

Although Lao Yao is a technocrat and has a high professional title, in terms of logical thinking, he is still far behind Lao Zhao, an experienced practicing lawyer.

"This----," Lao Yao couldn't find a reason to refute this question, so he had to say far-fetchedly: "It was our New Materials Research Institute that led Changda Group into the battery industry. Their technical creativity cannot be said to be the same as that of the battery industry."

We have nothing to do with each other."

"Director Yao, with all due respect, this logic is a bit too overbearing! According to your statement, companies engaged in waste paper recycling should also hand over profits to paper mills, but is this the reality?"

"Our Dr. Tong has conducted technical exchanges and guidance with them. This is undeniable, right?" Lao Yao said.

"This is just hearsay and speculation. Did Dr. Tong personally tell you about this? What did he say?"

"He didn't say it personally, but his colleagues talked to us about it."

"I have also learned about the relevant situation from Dr. Tong's team members, but that is not what they said. They only saw that Dr. Tong had some exchanges with the technical staff of the Changda Group Experimental Center. What was said specifically, they did not

I don’t know. To take a step back, even if Dr. Tong has had substantial exchanges with the technical staff of the Changda Group Test Center, it cannot be the reason for the New Materials Research Institute to want to share the patent rights. Just imagine, if Dr. Tong participated in a national academic

At the meeting, we had exchanges with professional and technical personnel from external units. Should part of the technical achievements obtained by other units be given to the New Materials Research Institute?" Lawyer Zhao asked.

In fact, it’s not that Director Yao doesn’t understand these principles. The key is that Vice President Qin seized on this matter to make a fuss. As a subordinate, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and use all possible means to find excuses. “Lawyer Zhao, now both parties have put their respective

Your views and opinions have been revealed, what do you want to do?"

"It's very simple, request the New Materials Research Institute to withdraw the report."

"To be honest, the New Materials Research Institute still has a cooperative relationship with Changda Group. It's really not worth severing the relationship over this matter. We actually don't care. We're just afraid that Vice President Qin won't agree." Old Yao looked very embarrassed.

"Director Yao, this is why we insist on meeting with you. We know that if we go to Vice President Qin directly, he will definitely refuse to communicate with us, but there must be a solution to this matter, so please give us

I bring my principles and opinions to Vice President Qin, hoping that he will recognize the facts and not let the two units that have cooperated happily break up due to some trivial matters in the past. Changda Group has given full authority to our firm to handle this matter, and the purpose is very clear

, If there is no room for negotiation, then solve the problem through legal means." Lao Zhao said.

"I will definitely convey your wishes to Vice President Qin, but I can't influence his attitude. I don't know what the final result will be."

"That's good. In addition, I would like to remind you that Changda Group hopes to see the news of your withdrawal of the report within a week. If it exceeds one week, the New Materials Research Institute will receive a court summons and the location of the response.

In our local courthouse.”

Lawyer Zhao and his party returned to Changda Group. They reported to Guan Yuntian what they learned and the results of their negotiations with the other party. "The initiator of the matter was their Vice President Qin, together with Dr. Tong and his team."

It has nothing to do with it. It is said that the reason is that the vice president is very pompous. The few times he has been here recently, especially at the commissioning ceremony of your cooperation project, Changda Group seemed to have neglected others, so he started to find trouble with you.

"

Guan Yuntian smiled contemptuously, "Haha, unknowingly, I have offended the great master. Some people in the system really take themselves seriously. They have to be respected by others wherever they go. If they are slightly unsatisfied, they will fall out.

You know, I really don’t know how I got into these bad habits!”

"Fortunately, Lao Qin is not the number one, otherwise it would be more difficult to serve him."

"Ignore him. How are your negotiations with the other party going?"

"The director below also thinks that it's not worth it to deal with trivial matters, but he can only turn our words over. There is nothing else he can do. It depends on the attitude of Vice President Qin. However, we have said everything that needs to be said."

"Okay, let's wait and see what happens and see how they act. The worst is a falling out. The battery project has just begun cooperation. The initiative lies with Changda Group. In the end, it depends on who will feel uncomfortable." Guan Yuntian said nonchalantly.

"Before leaving the New Materials Research Institute, we left a few words for each other to bring to Lao Qin. I said that Changda Group hopes to hear the news that the New Materials Research Institute has withdrawn the report within a week. More than a week,

They will receive a court summons."

"Very good. Wait another week. If the report is not withdrawn, legal proceedings will be initiated immediately."

After Lawyer Zhao and his party left, Director Yao from the Scientific Research Division of the New Materials Research Institute immediately came to Vice President Qin’s office and said, “They left.”

"Just leave, I don't have time to talk to them." Lao Qin didn't even raise his head.

"But Dean Qin, there are a few things I have to say to you."

"What do you want to say? Say it."

"Do you think it's appropriate for us to do this?" Lao Yao said worriedly.

"Are you talking about reporting? What's inappropriate? They want to have exclusive access to patented technology, so that's inappropriate."

"However, from what I understand, our New Materials Research Institute does have nothing to do with other people's waste battery recycling and processing technology. They only have exclusive patented technology, so what's inappropriate?"

Lao Qin repeated the two reasons again, "Based on these, Changda Group has no right to exclusively enjoy the patent rights of that technology."

"Dean Qin, let's talk behind closed doors. If you analyze it carefully, these reasons are far-fetched and untenable legally. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to share that patented technology."

"Isn't it easy? Huh, drag him and let the controversy continue to exist and see how he obtains patent authorization."

"This method may not work! Changda Group has entrusted the matter to a law firm. The three people who came this time are all lawyers. Before leaving, the other party gave a timetable. They hope to hear within a week

If we withdraw the reported information for more than one week, we will resolve the problem through legal channels," said Director Yao.

"Legal approach? Isn't it just a lawsuit? He has a lawyer, so we can also hire a lawyer. There's nothing to be afraid of!"

"Of course it's not terrible to go to court. The problem is that going to court will definitely alert the dean. How will we explain to the dean then? In addition, based on the information I have, even if we hire a lawyer, I don't think the New Materials Research Institute has a good chance of winning.

, once we lose the lawsuit, how will it end?"

Lao Qin looked arrogant and said, "The worst is to break up, otherwise what else can happen? I don't believe in a large national research institution, and I still care about a private enterprise!"

Old Yao was still sober, "Dean Qin, the battery project we cooperated with Changda Group has just seen economic benefits. If we go to court over some trivial matters, once the two sides break up, do you think the New Materials Research Institute can
Chapter completed!
