#1460 - Tony: It’s not an infringement of technology, it’s an infringement of design rights!
This book is first released on the entire network by 𝚝𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞
However, Tony Stark is, after all, a large capitalist who has been in the business world for many years and knows the rules of the game well, and every action of his seems to hide an unknown meaning.
This time, his lawsuit against Hammer Industries seems inexplicable and even a bit unreasonable to outsiders.
"Hammer Industries' mechanical soldiers are infringing!"
Tony said at the press conference with a smile on his face, but his tone was unusually firm.
As soon as this remark came out, the entire venue was in an uproar.
After all, as an important partner of the military, Hammer Industries' mechanical soldier project has attracted much attention and is regarded as an important force on the future battlefield.
Now, Tony is saying that it is infringing, isn't this slapping everyone in the face?
"Design infringement!"
Tony continued, with a hint of jesting in his tone, "Yes, you heard that right, it's the design of the arc reactor! The design of the arc reactor used on Hammer Industries' mechanical soldiers infringes on my, Tony Stark's, patent rights for the design of the arc reactor!"
And Tony's so-called infringement is not some high-tech technology, nor is it some military secret, but - the design of the arc reactor!
That's right, it's that little device that flickers on his chest and provides him with endless energy.
Tony claimed that the energy device on Hammer Industries' mechanical soldiers, which also flickers with light, infringed on his design rights for the arc reactor.
As soon as this statement came out, the audience was in an uproar.
It should be known that as one of Tony Stark's most proud inventions, although the technology of the arc reactor has not been patented, the unique design of the Iron Man armor and the arc reactor has long been registered with the patent office.
Tony is trying to protect his rights in an almost tricky way.
It should be known that as Tony's iconic invention, the arc reactor does have a unique shape, but since its debut, no one has ever mentioned its patent issue.
Because Tony himself has never applied for a patent for the arc reactor.
In his opinion, this may just be a reflection of his personality, rather than a commercial interest that needs legal protection.
However, Tony is now using this as a reason to file a lawsuit against Hammer Industries.
This is undoubtedly a surprise to Hammer Industries.
Justin Hammer, a capitalist who also has a good position in the business world, is now stunned.
He never thought that Tony would come up with such a nonsensical reason to deal with himself.
In fact, Justin specifically checked the records of the patent office before launching the mechanical soldiers.
After confirming that Tony had not applied for a patent for the technology of the arc reactor, he boldly launched this project.
After all, after hanging around in the business world for so many years, he is well aware of the importance of patents.
In business war, technology patents are an important weapon to protect one's own interests.
If Tony had really applied for a patent for the technology of the arc reactor, then Hammer Industries would never risk touching this red line.
Once infringed, it would not only be a matter of compensation, but also the loss of one's own commercial future.
But now, Tony says he infringed.
"He's deliberately nitpicking!"
Justin Hammer paced back and forth in his office, his face full of anger and helplessness.
He understood that Tony was clearly trying to unreasonable.
The team of lawyers hired by Stark Industries are notoriously formidable in the industry.
They are fully capable of fighting a protracted lawsuit with you until you are exhausted and unable to fight again.
Once trapped in in the lawsuit quagmire, it will be a long and painful battle.
At that time, Hammer Industries will not only face huge litigation costs, but also may miss business opportunities due to the drag of the lawsuit, and even affect the company's reputation and future development.
Hammer Industries, let alone doing business, I am afraid that even survival will become a problem.
More importantly, Hammer Industries has just received a 50-year order from the military and the Department of Defense. This order is undoubtedly a huge opportunity and challenge for Hammer Industries.
They need to complete a large number of production tasks within the specified time, while ensuring the quality and performance of the products.
Every minute and every second is burning money, they can't afford to delay.
Faced with such a dilemma, Justin's heart is full of anger and helplessness.
Justin Hammer knows this very well, so he tried to solve this problem through private consultation.
However, Tony Stark doesn't seem to be planning to give him this opportunity.
His attitude is very firm, that is, to protect his rights through legal means.
无一错一首一发一内一容一在一一看! (This sentence seems to be garbled and doesn't have a clear meaning. It's likely a placeholder or error from the original text.)
"He's trying to force to death us!"
Justin Hammer angrily punched the table, shaking the documents on the table scattered.
Tony Stark's influence in the business world, as well as his deep relationship with the military and the Department of Defense.
Once Tony is really determined to crush Hammer Industries, then they are probably in a bad way.
He realized that he was really in trouble this time.
The reason why Tony dares to do this is not only because he has a strong team of lawyers as a backing, but also because of his influence and status in the business world.
Even the military and the Department of Defense have to act against one's best interests when facing a capitalist like Tony.
More importantly, Tony is backed by Ares Industries.
Chang Wei, a giant who plays an important role in the military-industrial complex, his Ares Industries is now a favorite of the military.
Especially in the field of powered armor, Ares Industries is unmatched.
The military is still counting on Ares Industries to provide them with more advanced equipment, so naturally they will not easily offend Chang Wei.
So, under Tony's strong pressure, the military and the Department of Defense had to compromise.
They ordered Hammer Industries to immediately rectify the design of the mechanical soldiers, remove all elements similar to Tony's arc reactor design, and ensure that they no longer infringe on Tony's so-called "arc reactor design rights."
And promised to give Hammer Industries certain compensation in future cooperation projects.
At the same time, the military also privately expressed concern to Tony, hoping that he would focus on the overall situation and not further escalate the situation.
"This is our bottom line!"
The military representative said seriously at the meeting, "Hammer Industries must immediately stop producing mechanical soldiers suspected of infringement, and conduct a comprehensive inspection and rectification of the products that have been produced. At the same time, we must also conduct a strict review and supervision of Hammer Industries' production processes and quality management system."
This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Hammer Industries.
They not only have to make large-scale modifications to the mechanical soldiers in a short period of time, but also have to bear the economic losses and damage to their reputation caused by this.
