Huawei has paid US$ 4.8 billion in patent fees to US companies.

  Song Liuping thinks that some American politicians want to ban the implementation of Huawei’s patent right, which is a very dangerous signal. He said that Huawei will not weaponize its patent portfolio, but will adopt an open and cooperative attitude and discuss patent licensing and authorization with various manufacturers and operators in accordance with the principle of fairness, reasonableness and non-discrimination.

  "If intellectual property becomes a tool for politicians, it will hurt people’s confidence in the patent protection system. If some governments selectively deprive some companies of intellectual property rights, it will destroy the foundation of global innovation. " Huawei chief law officer Song Liuping said.

  On June 27th, Huawei released a white paper on innovation and intellectual property rights in Shenzhen, and called for not politicizing intellectual property issues. He said that intellectual property is the foundation of innovation, and politicizing intellectual property issues will threaten the progress of global technology.

  Not long ago, US Senator Marco Rubio proposed an amendment to prevent Huawei from carrying out damages through the US patent court. If the amendment is finally passed by the US Congress, the patents that Huawei has applied for in the United States will be equivalent to being invalid. It is reported that Huawei applied for 3,195 patents in the United States from 2017 to January 2019. In addition, it is reported that Huawei has initiated a request for licensing fees for more than 230 patents to Verizon, an American telecom operator, totaling more than $1 billion.

  Song Liuping thinks that some American politicians want to ban the implementation of Huawei’s patent right, which is a very dangerous signal. He said that Huawei will not weaponize its patent portfolio, but will adopt an open and cooperative attitude and discuss patent licensing and authorization with various manufacturers and operators in accordance with the principle of fairness, reasonableness and non-discrimination.

  "The negotiation with Verizon is a specific negotiation in normal business, which does not mean that Huawei will change anything from now on. This is an ongoing process, and we will continue to conduct such negotiations with relevant parties in the industry." Song Liuping told reporters, including CBN, that Huawei will have related intellectual property income, but it will still be a company mainly engaged in product sales, not a company mainly engaged in patent income.

  Eighty percent of the patent fees are paid to American companies.

  Recently, it was reported that Huawei charged patent fees to Verizon, an American operator, asking it to pay patent fees for using more than 230 patents of Huawei, totaling or exceeding $1 billion.

  VerizonWireless used to be the second largest mobile operator in the United States. After the acquisition of Alltel (the fifth largest operator in the United States) from Atlantis Holdings LLC, Verizon Wireless has 83.7 million mobile users, surpassing AT&T Wireless to become the new overlord of mobile communication in the United States.

  On this issue, Song Liuping said in an interview with a reporter on the spot that Huawei’s intellectual property rights are not radical policies, but more about protecting the safety of product operation, and will not weaponize them, and will not pursue high licensing fees, but reasonable licensing fees. Secondly, patent licensing is generally normal for the communication industry, including chip manufacturers, equipment manufacturers and operators, including enterprises in China and the United States. Cross-licensing of enterprises is an ongoing activity, not just started today. Thirdly, Huawei is one of the main holders of 3G, 4G and 5G core patents. It is both a licensor and a licensee. It is a right and an obligation to obtain benefits through licensing, and it is authorized to a third party according to the principle of fairness, reasonableness and non-discrimination (FRAND).

  "The negotiation with Verizon is a specific negotiation in normal business, which does not mean that Huawei will change anything from now on." Song Liuping told reporters that Huawei will have related intellectual property income, but it will still be a company mainly engaged in product sales, not a company mainly engaged in patent income.

  Song Liuping thinks that some American politicians want to ban the implementation of Huawei’s patent right, which is a very dangerous signal. "We believe that intellectual property protection is actually an important foundation for the development of the United States. Intellectual property rights are also protected by the US Constitution. If such a law is passed, it will have a devastating impact on global innovation. If such a law is passed, it will be terrible.

  He said that if such a law is passed, Huawei will also use legal laws to protect Huawei’s rights.

  "Intellectual property is private property protected by law. Huawei advocates solving intellectual property disputes through legal procedures. In the course of Huawei’s operation and development over the past 30 years, no case has been found by the court to have maliciously stolen intellectual property rights, and Huawei has not been liable for compensation by the court. " Song Liuping said that the rise of Huawei relies on long-term R&D investment, and Huawei’s rise stems from the sweat of 80,000 R&D personnel.

  According to the First Financial Reporter, the white paper released by Huawei that day was entitled "Respecting and protecting intellectual property rights is the only way for innovation", which introduced in detail Huawei’s practice and contribution in innovation and intellectual property protection.

  According to the white paper, by the end of 2018, Huawei had obtained 87,805 authorized patents, of which 11,152 were American patents. Since 2015, Huawei has accumulated more than $1.4 billion in intellectual property revenue. In addition to its own patents, Huawei has paid more than $6 billion in patent fees for users to legally use patents of other companies, and nearly 80% of them have been paid to American companies.

  Song Liuping said that even if customers in some countries don’t buy our products directly, they are actually using these core patents and sharing Huawei’s technological contribution.

  Take 5G as an example. In 2009, Huawei invested 600 million US dollars to start the research on 5G technology and standards. After 2016, an additional investment of $1.4 billion was made, and users accelerated the research and development of end-to-end 5G commercial products. So far, Huawei has taken the lead in investing 2 billion US dollars in 5G research and development. It exceeds the total investment in 5G R&D of major equipment suppliers in the United States and Europe.

  At present, Huawei has more than 80,000 patents worldwide, including more than 10,000 patents authorized by the United States.

  Song Liuping said that Huawei will not weaponize its patent portfolio, but will adopt an open and cooperative attitude and discuss patent licensing and authorization with manufacturers and operators in accordance with the principle of fairness, reasonableness and non-discrimination (FRAND).

  No company can lead the world by stealing.

  Song Liuping said that according to the US Constitution, intellectual property is private property. If intellectual property becomes a tool of politicians, it will hurt people’s confidence in the patent protection system. If some governments selectively deprive some companies of intellectual property rights, it will destroy the foundation of global innovation.

  Last year, Huawei’s sales revenue exceeded $100 billion. None of the products have been successful, and none of the key technologies have anything to do with the alleged infringement of trade secrets that Huawei experienced in the past.

  He said that no company can lead the world by stealing.

  "It is common for enterprises to have intellectual property disputes in their global operations, and Huawei is no exception. We believe that these disputes should not be politicized. Intellectual property rights are private property protected by law, and we advocate solving these disputes through legal procedures. " Song Liuping said.

  A reporter at the interview site asked questions about the past judgment between Huawei and T-Mobile.

  In 2009, Huawei Equipment USA became the mobile phone supplier of T-Mobile USA. According to the procurement process of T-Mobile USA, Huawei equipment samples provided to T-Mobile USA must be submitted and tested in the laboratory of T-Mobile USA, and pass the robot entry test before mass production. Then, Huawei was accused of stealing the technology used by T-Mobile America to test smartphones. In 2017, after a US jury ruled that Huawei violated the contract with the network operator, Huawei was fined $4.8 million for T-Mobile.

  At the beginning of this year, the lawsuit between Huawei and T-Mobile was re-filed by the US federal inspection agency.

  Song Liuping told reporters that there has never been a court ruling that Huawei stole intellectual property subjectively and maliciously, and paid compensation. This is also the content of the industry accusing Huawei. "In the past, 4.8 million refers to contract breach, not malicious theft of intellectual property rights." Song Liuping said that intellectual property litigation is actually a legal issue and should be tried by the court, not politicized.

  On the question of whether American companies can bypass Huawei’s patents, Song Liuping emphasized that Huawei is an enterprise in the ICT field and will research, develop and produce its own products according to international standards. So in fact, Huawei is one of the main contributors to standards, and major enterprises in the industry are sharing Huawei’s achievements. Huawei is also the main holder of standard essential patents. Especially after 4G and 5G, these patents have been applied and registered, including the United States and Europe. These authorized patents will be used according to the standards.

  It is worth noting that at present, some American enterprises have crossed the government sanctions and resumed supplying Huawei in China.

  Sanjay Mehrotra, CEO of Micron Technology, said in a conference call on 25th that after research, the company has confirmed that it can sell some products to Huawei that are not subject to the ban of the US Department of Commerce, and the shipment has started in the past two weeks. He said, "We believe that we can legally resume the shipment of some existing products, because they are not within the scope of export management norms or the restrictions of the entity list. However, there is still considerable uncertainty in Huawei’s situation. " This caused Micron’s share price to soar by nearly 15% after the opening on the 26th, and led to the rise of other chip stocks.

The re-release of Avatar provides a nostalgic entertainment feast for the audience.

  On the 13th, two days after Avatar was shown again, the global box office exceeded 2.8 billion dollars, regaining the global box office champion from Avengers 4. Although Avatar is not a simple re-release, but an upgraded version with the latest 3D technology, the movie screen is more shocking than that of that year, and the viewers are mostly iron tickets of that year.

  Although Avatar is a classic, it can’t get rid of the positioning of entertainment products. In the reality of fast food consumption of entertainment products, Avatar still has a strong appeal at the box office in China, highlighting the shortage of good entertainment products in the realistic context, or the entertainment thirst caused by the epidemic. Avatar successfully seized this opportunity, and presented a nostalgic entertainment feast to China audience in time through re-screening.

  Director James Cameron paid tribute to the audience in China, and specially emphasized the potential of the box office market in China. This is not a compliment, but a heartfelt one. If China’s box office market was still in a slight disadvantage compared with North America’s box office market a few years ago, now China’s movie box office is the world’s most unshakable. Especially last year, even though the China cinema opened late due to the epidemic and was not fully staffed, the box office in China has already led the world. This year’s Spring Festival schedule, Valentine’s Day and the Spring Festival overlap, which invisibly lengthened the schedule. Coupled with the box office demand that the epidemic was suppressed last year, it set a box office record of nearly 8 billion yuan for the Spring Festival.

  The faster the entertainment demand in the consumption era, the more demanding the consumer’s entertainment consumption habits, because there are too many entertainment consumption options in the network era. If the film works can’t trigger the sensitive points of the audience’s entertainment demand, it may encounter market waterloo. The box office fever from the re-release of Avatar also reflects this fact. After the in-depth test of online entertainment, the audience in China still have a high appreciation level of film works. China audience, especially young people, may have the impulse to pursue the traffic stars, but if the traffic stars play bad movies, they will eventually suffer a disastrous defeat in the market.

  Avatar surpassed the box office of Avengers 4 again by relying on the China market, which not only fulfilled Cameron’s promise, but also once again proved the importance of China market to Hollywood blockbusters. With the improvement of China audience’s appreciation level, the influence of Hollywood blockbusters in China market has declined. Even if some Hollywood blockbusters try their best to implant China elements, they can’t arouse the interest of many China audiences.

  The success of "Avatar" in China is not only the good use of high-tech elements, but also the fact that the floating mountain in the film, like a fairyland, was shot from Zhangjiajie, which obviously caught the attention of China audiences more than simply and rudely implanting China elements. On burning money to invest, China’s domestic films are not lost to Hollywood blockbusters; On paying for movies, China audiences are not stingy. However, from the perspective of scriptwriting and storytelling, domestic films still need to work harder. However, from Avengers 4 to Avatar, and then to the extreme of Hollywood blockbusters’ technicalism, Hollywood blockbusters have also fallen into the embarrassment of eating old books and lacking innovation.

Football originated in China. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, "Cuju" or "Collapse Ju" appeared. The earliest statement can be found in Qi Ce, the Warring States Policy: "Being rich is very blessed and real …… it collapses". In the Han Dynasty, cuju got a greater development due to the prosperity of social economy, which was almost empty, and cuju became the main sports activity of the court. Modern football originated in Scotland, and since it was introduced to China at the end of 19th century, it has been widely welcomed by Chinese people with its unique charm. Li Huitang, a player who was active in modern China football, was once rated as one of the "top five ball kings in the world" by an authoritative magazine in the Federal Republic of Germany. However, as football has become one of the most popular sports in China, the development of football in China has been ill-fated and has failed to live up to the support and love of Chinese people. Exploring the development history of football in China and putting forward targeted opinions and suggestions have certain reference significance for promoting the development of football in China.

1. Shanghai has become the birthplace of modern football in China.

When it comes to modern football in China, we can’t help but mention Shanghai. As the earliest gateway city to open concession in modern China, Shanghai was inhabited by westerners, with numerous church organizations, and was deeply influenced by the west in all aspects of social life. Therefore, it became one of the main windows for modern China to introduce western things, including sports, and was once known as "the cradle of China football" and "the important football town in the Far East", just after Hongkong. It can be said that Shanghai is the birthplace of modern football in China and the cradle of the development of modern football in China.

In 1848, when the Cambridge Rules, the first written rule of football, was born, Shanghai, known as the "ten-mile foreign field", was also influenced by missionary schools, which opened a new era of modern competitive sports in China. In November 1867, Shanghai Westerners established a football association, also called a football club, and formulated some football rules. Later, according to their respective units, they gradually split into different teams, such as navy football club, police football club and so on. However, Shanghai Football Club still undertakes the responsibility of leading and organizing all the western football clubs in Shanghai. At the end of 19th century, football was included in the teaching content of Westernization schools and missionary schools.

In 1895, St. John’s College established the first all-face of china football team in Shanghai. Although I dare not say that this is the first football team in China, it is also one of the early modern football teams in China, and it is known as the "St. John’s Braid Army". Shortly thereafter, Shanghai Nanyang College also set up its own football team. In 1902, the two schools imitated the football team competition between Oxford and Cambridge, and began to hold a series of competitions that could be recorded in the history of China. As a result, football became a popular sport in various famous universities in Shanghai at that time, and even major middle schools such as the famous Xuhui College became "trendsetters" in this "new sport".

In 1902, the Shanghai Football Association was founded (referred to as "Western Union") and began to hold the Scooter Cup. As the most influential football match in Shanghai that year, participants in the Scooter Cup are not allowed to have China teams or face of china. To this end, Shanghai students and the people jointly established the East China Inter-school Football League, in which soccer teams from eight schools participated. In order to fight against the Western Union, the All-China Sports Association was established in 1924, with Zhang Boling as the chairman and Wang Zhengting as the honorary president. In the same year, the Chinese Football Federation was established in Shanghai, which was a milestone in the development of modern Chinese football. Since then, with the holding of the national sports meeting and the national sub-regional football match, it indicates that football has gained extensive attention and gradually spread throughout the country.

Second, modern football in China went from glory to decline.

Football is an emotional sustenance and a historical inheritance. A philosopher once said: There are only two common languages of human beings, one is music and the other is football! As the "world’s first sport", football is very popular all over the world. Especially in some European and American countries, the level of football is relatively high, and the development of football and football industry is relatively mature. But little known is that the popularity of football in modern China is not inferior to that of today, and it represents the highest level in Asia at that time.

On the history of modern football development in China, Li Huitang is an unavoidable figure. In 1922, at the age of 17, Li Huitang was selected as the main striker of South China Team, the most famous football team in Hong Kong. In 1925, Li Huitang was invited to Shanghai to prepare for the Shanghai Lehua Football Team. In 1927, he led the team to win three championships, namely, the first-class tournament held by the Western Federation and the first-class tournament held by the Chinese Football Federation. Although they didn’t win the Scooter Cup, Li Huitang and Lehua football have already become the symbols of China football. In the 1920s, there was a saying in China: "It’s up to Mei Lanfang to watch the play and Li Huitang to watch the ball." In old China, it is really extraordinary that a football star can be compared with the name of Mei Lanfang, a master of Peking Opera. He won the title of "Asian Ball King" with tenacious struggle and superb skills. In 1976, an authoritative football magazine in the Federal Republic of Germany organized a selection campaign, and Li Huitang was named "the top five soccer kings in the world" along with Brazil Pele, England Matthews, Spain Stifano and Hungarian Serbs.

In 1924, the Football Association of the Republic of China was established, and China football was truly systematized and institutionalized. For the first time, a regular team representing the country’s foreign wars appeared. In 1924, it was also regarded as the founding year by the national football team, marking the beginning of football in China and becoming a standardized competition in China. Joining FIFA in 1931 also confirmed the recognition of China football by the international community. At that time, China football began to enter the "golden age" of strong development in Asia. Together with Li Huitang, the first groundbreaking pioneers emerged. From 1915 to 1934, China won nine consecutive championships in the Far East Games, and was shortlisted for the Olympic Games twice in 1936 and 1948. At this time, China football is a well-deserved overlord in Asia. Later, due to political and other reasons, there was a vacuum in the whole world football, and China football was no exception.

After the founding of New China, the China Football Association was established in 1955. After failing to hit the 1958 World Cup finals, it withdrew from FIFA. Then came the ten-year Cultural Revolution, when football was banned. After the reform and opening up, he rejoined FIFA in 1979. Since then, China failed in the 1982 World Cup finals. This is the first time that China’s football has been closed for a long time, and it has hit the World Cup qualifying right since it returned to FIFA. In essence, it is the beginning of the modern history of China’s football. Since 1976, China team has participated in the Asian Cup for nine times in a row, and reached the finals twice in 1984 and 2004, but both of them came back with a grudge. Their debut in the first World Cup was the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan, but they lost all three games and conceded 9 goals without scoring a goal.

1992 was the first year of football professionalization in China. The "Hongshankou Conference" held in June, 1992 was hailed as the Zunyi Conference of China Football. The conference decided to take professionalization as the breakthrough of football reform, and it was also supported by national leaders. In 1994, the first League A began, and China Football Year officially entered the professional road. After the end of the 2003 season, League A and League B were transformed into the first-class football leagues in chinese super league and China. Entering the 2002 China-Japan World Cup finals was the heyday of Japanese football. Since then, the achievements of the "National Brand" team have been lackluster, but Evergrande Football Club won the AFC Champions League twice in 2013 and 2015 respectively, saving some face for China football.

Revitalizing and developing football is the ardent expectation of the whole country, which is related to the physical and mental health of the masses and the cultivation of excellent culture, and is of great positive significance for building a sports power, promoting economic and social development and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. On March 16th, 2015, the highly anticipated Overall Plan for Football Reform and Development in China (hereinafter referred to as the Plan) was officially announced. As a programmatic document of China’s football reform and development, there are 50 reform measures in the plan, which can be called the most important reform in the history of new China football in terms of content and scale. It also means that China’s football reform has entered a "deep water area", and the future reform road has attracted more attention. In April 2016, the Medium-and Long-term Development Plan of China Football (2016-2050) (hereinafter referred to as the Plan) was issued. The plan is divided into three periods: short-term, medium-term and long-term. In the near future, it is necessary to achieve the development goal of ensuring basic, strengthening grassroots and laying a foundation; In the medium term, it will achieve the development goal that China football is more dynamic, more energetic and more influential, and ranks among the top teams in the world; In the long run, it is necessary to achieve the goal of being a first-class football power, and China’s football will achieve all-round development.

If the Plan is the "program" of football reform and development in China and the Plan is the "goal" of football reform and development in China, the future development of football in China will usher in a clearer timetable and a clearer road map.

Third, it is a long way to go to realize the revitalization of football in China

Since China football has been concerned by the public, tragedy and tragedy have become synonymous with them. China men’s soccer team took part in international competitions and capsized several times at the last minute, and performed a series of "black three minutes", which seemed to be an insurmountable psychological barrier for the China team. "5.19 tragedy", "Irbid tragedy", "Golden State tragedy", Yangcheng tragedy, borhani’s humiliation, World Cup tragedy … have impacted the fragile hearts of China fans again and again. "If you are not happy, just watch the national football game!" "If you want to be in a bad mood, go and see the Super League!" ….. netizens commented like this.

Of the three big balls, only football was invented by China. At present, China men’s soccer team can only be regarded as a third-rate team in the world and a second-rate team in Asia. China is the birthplace of football, and now China’s backward football achievements and status are not commensurate with the status of the birthplace of football and China’s status as a big country in the world. Popularize football on a large scale, greatly improve the level of football, and make China a world football power, so as to match the historical and realistic status of this birthplace.

一是加强青训体系建设。良好的青训体系是足球人才的最根本的来源。在欧洲乃至世界足坛,几乎每一家球队都非常看重自家的青训营,比如巴萨拉玛西亚青训营、阿贾克斯青训营、曼彻斯特联青训营、拜仁慕尼黑青训营等,培养和出产了大批享誉世界的足坛巨星。曾经,支撑着中国足球的是举国体制的培养训练模式,为中国足球输送了不少人才。但2004年之后,足协把青训的任务交给了市场,原有青训体系崩塌,多年来青训的进展发展缓慢,甚至原地踏步,甚至不断倒退。实现中国足球腾飞的梦想,就要牢记习近平总书记对校园足球及中国足球发展的殷切希望,牢记立德树人、全面发展的核心目标,进一步完善校园足球制度体系和治理体系,探索和建立一个符合我国国情和特色的青训体系,为中国足球的腾飞壮骨强筋、固本培元。

The second is to popularize football for all. At present, there are less than 7,000 young players registered by China Football Association, accounting for 1.4% and 1% of Japanese 600,000 and Spanish 620,000 respectively. There are 8,000 registered professional players, and the quarterly shortage of football population seriously affects the development of football in China. Popularizing football by the whole people and increasing the football population base will naturally increase the number of outstanding players. It is necessary to actively integrate into the top-level design, conscientiously implement the requirements of the "Program" and "Planning", and provide strong support for vigorously popularizing social football. It is necessary to increase financial input, extensively carry out mass amateur football leagues, and drive social football events to go deep into the masses. It is necessary to promote the construction of venues, improve the utilization rate of campus football fields, further improve the hardware facilities of football venues, and provide a strong guarantee for the extensive development of social football. It is necessary to solve the defects in the management system, solve the problem of backward system and mechanism, separate management from office, de-administer, and overcome the tendency of "pseudo-professionalism".

Third, we must strengthen the construction of the league. By other’s faults, wise men correct their own. The experience of European and American football powers tells us that high-level leagues are the only way for football development. League is the foundation of football development in China. Players of our national team are selected, improved and grown in the league. The progress of the national team cannot be separated from the healthy development of the league, which is the basis for the survival and development of the national team. League standards should be in line with international standards, adhere to openness and innovation, and constantly absorb and learn from international advanced experience to transform and upgrade the league level. League organization should be more scientific, and club construction should be more standardized and healthier. It is necessary to increase the construction of professional league culture and professional ethics, improve the all-round and three-dimensional supervision system of the football industry, and resolutely prevent the recurrence of problems such as "fake gambling". It is necessary to adhere to the principle of "football starts with dolls", promote the development of youth training from "quantity" to "quality", effectively improve the club’s own hematopoietic function, realize a virtuous circle and long-term sustainable development, and train and transport outstanding talents for the national team. It is necessary to enhance the awareness of the overall situation, jointly build a national team that can recruit good fighters and have a good style of work, and strive to achieve results that satisfy the broad masses of the people.
