Chapter 2785 Success

"Then why would the other party say we infringe on the rights?" Zheng Nannan asked in confusion."

"It is possible that their patent application was early and our search was not comprehensive enough."

"Or, their designs have similarities to our Disney-based designs in some ways, but in essence we did not copy them." Lawyer Zhang analyzed.

"No matter what, we must respond actively. Lawyer Zhang, please contact the other party's lawyer as soon as possible to understand their demands, and at the same time prepare relevant evidence to prove that our products are independently designed."

"Okay, Mr. Zheng." Lawyer Zhang responded.

After the meeting, Lawyer Zhang quickly contacted the lawyer who was "creative and unlimited".

The other party was tough and insisted that the Junken Toys Company infringed on the rights and demanded that the production and sale of the product be stopped immediately and compensated for their economic losses.

Lawyer Zhang argued with reason, saying that the products of Junken Toys Company were designed based on legal Disney authorization and there was no infringement. The two parties were in a stalemate on the phone.

At the same time, Zheng Nannan is also thinking about countermeasures. If this patent dispute cannot be properly resolved, it will not only affect cooperation with Disney, but may also cause the company to fall into legal difficulties and public opinion storms.

She decided to go to the "Creative Unlimited" company in person to communicate face-to-face with the other party's senior management, and try to find a peaceful solution.

When Zheng Nannan came to the "Creative Unlimited" company, she was received by the other party indifferently.

Mr. Liu, the general manager of "infinite creativity", sat behind a large desk, revealing a hint of arrogance in his eyes.

"Ms. Zheng, we have made it clear that your company's behavior seriously infringes on our patents. If we do not provide a satisfactory solution as soon as possible, we can only solve it through legal means."

Mr. Liu said coldly.

Zheng Nannan responded with a smile: "Mr. Liu, I understand your importance to intellectual property rights very much."

"But when our company designed this product, it was indeed created independently based on Disney's classic elements. We hope to solve this problem through friendly negotiations. After all, a lawsuit will not benefit both parties."

“Friendly consultation?”

"The fact of your infringement is in front of you, what else can I negotiate?" Mr. Liu said disdainfully.

Zheng Nannan calmly took out a piece of information and said:

"Mr. Liu, this is the design manuscript and creation process record of our product. You can see that our design ideas are completely based on Disney's animation scenes, which are very different from your company's product design concept."

"And, we only started product design and development after obtaining Disney's authorization, and there was no intentional infringement."

Mr. Liu took the information, flipped it casually, and said:

"These information does not fully prove that you have not infringed. It is an indisputable fact that our patent application time was earlier than your product was launched."

"Mr. Liu, I admit that your company's patent application time is first. But the determination of a patent does not only depend on the application time, but also depends on the substantial innovation and design source of the product."

"We are willing to jointly entrust a professional intellectual property appraisal agency with your company to conduct detailed comparison and appraisal of the two products."

"If the appraisal results prove that we have indeed infringed, we are willing to bear the corresponding responsibility. But if the appraisal results show that we have not infringed, I hope your company can stop this unreasonable accusation and avoid causing unnecessary losses to both parties."

Zheng Nannan said sincerely.

After hearing Zheng Nannan's words, Mr. Liu fell into deep thought. He also knew in his heart that if he really sued, it would not only take time and energy, but the result would not be beneficial to him.

After all, the military toy company has the support of Disney, and once things get bigger, it may also have a negative impact on the reputation of its own company.

"Ms. Zheng, I can consider your proposal. But before entrusting an appraisal agency, you must stop producing and selling this product." Mr. Liu said.

"We have done this, and after receiving the attorney letter, we immediately suspended the production of this product."

"But I hope your company can reply as soon as possible. We don't want this incident to affect the company's normal business development." Zheng Nannan said.

After leaving the "Creative Unlimited" company, Zheng Nannan did not feel relaxed.

Although there has been some progress in communication with Mr. Liu, the final result still depends on the appraisal results of the professional appraisal agency.

She knew very well that the company would still face huge uncertainty in the days to come.

After returning to the company, Zheng Nannan informed the company's senior management about the communication with the "Creative Unlimited" company.

Everyone realized the seriousness of the problem and expressed their willingness to actively cooperate and wait for the appraisal results.

While waiting for the appraisal results, the company was a little nervous.

On the one hand, Zheng Nannan calmed the employees' emotions and encouraged everyone not to affect their work enthusiasm because of this matter.

On the other hand, she is also thinking about how the company should respond if the appraisal results are unfavorable.

Finally, after a long wait, the appraisal results of the professional intellectual property appraisal agency came out.

The appraisal report shows that although the Disney-themed puzzle toys produced by Junken Toys Company are similar to the patented products of "Creative Unlimited" in some appearance details.

However, there are obvious differences in overall design ideas, creation sources and substantial innovations of the product, and do not constitute infringement.

When Zheng Nannan got the appraisal report, a big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

She immediately arranged for lawyer Zhang to send the appraisal report to "Creative Unlimited" company and asked the other party to apologize publicly to eliminate the adverse effects on the military reclamation toy company.

After receiving the appraisal report, the "Creative Unlimited" company knew that it was in the wrong. Mr. Liu personally called Zheng Nannan to apologize, and said that he would apologize publicly as required and withdraw his lawyer's letter.

This sudden patent dispute ended with the victory of the Military Reclamation Toy Company.

After this storm, Zheng Nannan realized more deeply the importance of intellectual property protection.

She decided to strengthen intellectual property management within the company and establish a more complete patent search and examination mechanism to prevent similar problems from happening again.

Looking at Zheng Nannan's worried look, Ye Yuze felt a little funny. This little girl grew up very fast, but in general, she was still a little immature.

After hesitating for a while, he decided to remind him:

"Has this "creative wireless" company produced Disney products authorized by Disney? If not, do you need to ask them to compensate you for your losses?"

Zheng Nannan looked at him blankly: "Is this necessary?"

Yang Geyong cursed: "Bastard, if I were to squeeze out all the egg yolks."

Zheng Qian gave him a blank look. This man is sometimes so vulgar.

Little Apple didn't care and said his opinion to Zheng Nannan:

"The Hong Kong Island seems calm, but the competition in shopping malls is always a life-and-death battle. I think Yuze is right."

If you win this time and it's still silent, then any cat or dog dares to bite you in the future."

Zheng Nannan was shocked. She didn't expect that when she first entered the mall, she felt that she should be kind to others and make good relationships.

But from the beginning of starting a business with my mother, there are always people targeting them.

It’s not because of personal grudges, it’s just because of interests. As long as your business grows bigger, someone will target you and plot against you.

So she picked up the phone decisively and called Johnson. After listening, Johnson asked for a moment of hesitation:

"What does Miss Zheng plan to do?"

Zheng Nannan did not hesitate: I hope your company's legal department can cooperate with me and I want to sue this "creative wireless" company for infringement.

Johnson smiled: "Miss Beautiful, I can promise you this request, and the compensation I received is used to the development of your company."

Zheng Nannan was overjoyed: "Thank you Mr. Johnson for your generosity."

Johnson didn't care: "We are partners. According to Chinese people, we are just one family, and there is no need to say "thank you" for the whole family."

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Nannan looked at Ye Yuze with bright eyes, and said with a blushing expression:

"I want to give birth to a monkey for you, why don't you let me?"

The room was filled with people, but Yang Geyong couldn't help laughing "haha".

Zheng Qian cursed: "Damn girl, how old are you? I don't know how embarrassed?"

"Why don't I feel ashamed to give birth to a child for a man I like?"

Little apple sighed leisurely: "You are right, I think too, but can't the fuck be born?"

The lawsuit for "Creative Unlimited" company went smoothly because Disney's lawyers were directly involved.

In order not to cause any impact, Creative Unified Company directly had to settle the matter and finally ended with a compensation of 2 million US dollars.

This is because Zheng Nannan is ruthless and unwilling to do anything, otherwise she could make the company lose everything.

With the deepening of cooperation with Disney, Military Reclamation Toys Company has become increasingly well-known and influential in the Hong Kong Island market.

The business of specialty stores is becoming increasingly popular, and the products are not only sold well in Hong Kong Island, but also sold overseas through e-commerce platforms.

Zheng Nannan was not satisfied with this, and began to plan to further expand the market and promote Disney toys to the entire Southeast Asia region.

At the same time, the old fox, Old John, also stared at the toy company in northern Xinjiang.

He went to the 16th Division in person to contact Wang Shilei and wanted to customize a large number of Disney-like products.

Wang Shilei refused very simply. It’s not that he couldn’t sign the contract, but Zheng Nannan is his own. Since she is already the general agent of Hong Kong Island and has cooperated with Disney, why not do a favor?

Although the profit may be less in this way, Wang Shilei believes in Zheng Nannan more.

The Corps was really a headache for him before he could learn the intrigues in the mall.

He would rather become a processing base than get involved in this entanglement too early.

So, he said to Johnson firmly: "Zheng Nannan is our sales director. You can just look for her if you have anything."

When Johnson, helpless, found Zheng Nannan and told her about the passage, Zheng Nannan's eyes were hot.
