Chapter 63 Patent Expiration

Just last week, the great magician Ferguson once again came to the Principality of Standing on behalf of the headquarters of the Magician's Union, and met with Xu Yi.

This time, the great magician Ferguson brought the final decision from the headquarters of the Magicians Union.

According to the discussion and decision of the Magicians Union Headquarters Council, we agree and support the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's proposal to establish a Magic Industry Academy to train low-level magicians to master the theoretical basis of magic bow-related knowledge.

The headquarters of the Magician's Union stated that in the name of the Sainz Continental Magician's Union, it will officially recognize the existence of the magic industry to all magicians on the entire continent.

The official recognition by the headquarters of the Magician's Union also means that the magic industry currently represented by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been officially recognized by the Magician's Union, and will be clearly distinguished from other commercial industries on the mainland.

The magicians on the mainland are more or less despised by the merchants, but limited to their personal livelihood, they always have to force themselves to deal with the merchants.

And now the headquarters of the Magician's Union has specifically mentioned the magic industry and given special recognition, which has given a lot of magicians a reason to formally set foot in the magic industry.

For Xu Yi, this is enough.

The reason why it was so difficult for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to recruit magicians before was actually mostly because of such a face problem.

For senior magicians, joining a chamber of commerce is already a self-defeating status, and it is even more unacceptable to join this chamber of commerce as an unknown researcher.

The reason why Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is able to recruit so many magicians now is that the treatment given by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is indeed good enough. More reasons are also because of the golden signboard of Camilla Magister.

And now the magic industry has been officially recognized by the headquarters of the Magician's Union. In addition, the headquarters of the Magician's Union also stated that it would list the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce as one of the partner chambers of the Magician's Union Headquarters announced to the public. Then joining the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will no longer have any psychological barriers for all magicians.

As for Xin Fei Lie, the magic industry academy run by your union is even more good news for those low-level magicians.

Because according to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, you don’t even need to pay tuition fees to join this college. At the same time, you can have a great chance to join the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce after graduation and get a pretty good job.

For the vast majority of low-level magicians whose economic conditions are not good, not to mention enough to support the study of magic, even upgrading is a problem. This is undoubtedly a good thing like a pie falling from the sky.

As for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the official support from the headquarters of the Magician Union will not only enable the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to recruit a large number of magicians to work directly in the Chamber of Commerce, but also recruit a large number of low-level magicians for the Xinfei Magic Industry Academy as future recruits. Talent reserves are extremely beneficial to the current and long-term development of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

So at the beginning, he had a very pleasant conversation with the great magician Ferguson, and Xu Yi also seized the opportunity to propose another new proposal of his own to the great magician Ferguson.

Xu also suggested that he hoped that the headquarters of the Magician's Union could approve Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's naming support for the annual qualification level assessment of the Magician's Union in the Kingdom of Lampari. One hundred thousand gold coins as the naming fee.

Although the great magician Ferguson was very confused about the "title" and "title fee" proposed by Xu Yi, it was still very easy to understand under Xu Yi's explanation.

From the personal point of view of the great magician Ferguson, this is undoubtedly a good thing.

Because the magician unions in various countries actually have no means of income. Almost all the funds to maintain operations come from the allocation of the headquarters of the Magician's Union and special funds from the country where it is located.

Because the kingdom of Lampari has been weak before, it doesn't have much money. Therefore, the special allocation for the Magician Union of the Kingdom of Lampari is even rarer.

According to the memory of the great magician Ferguson, when the Magicians Union of the Kingdom of Lampari used to report to the headquarters of the Magicians Union every year, they would express financial difficulties, because the special thin money they received from the Kingdom of Lampari in a year was only a mere five Just ten thousand gold coins.

Even with the annual appropriation of 30,000 gold coins from the headquarters of the Magician's Union, the total annual activity funds of the Magician's Union in the Kingdom of Lampari is only 80,000 gold coins.

With such a small amount of funds, it is difficult to maintain the basic operation of the headquarters of the Magician Union in the entire Lampari Kingdom, not to mention organizing various activities of the Magician Union, which is naturally even more difficult.

Now that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is willing to support 100,000 gold coins of the Lanpari Kingdom Magician Union every year, it will greatly improve the funding situation of the Lanpari Kingdom Magician Union at once, which is undoubtedly a great thing.

But the great magician Ferguson did not agree.

First of all, this matter is related to the Magician Union of the Kingdom of Lampari, and he has no right to decide it alone. Secondly, it is really unfair for a chamber of commerce to carry out the so-called "naming" of the qualification level assessment held by a country's Magician Union. Too novel, of course, after a good discussion to make a decision.

Of course, the great magician Ferguson praised Xu Yi's proposal, saying that Xu Yi, as the president of a special chamber of commerce with close ties to magicians, is really willing to consider for the magicians. It is really a very correct decision to be listed as an official cooperative chamber of commerce...

However, after Xu Yi made this proposal, the atmosphere of the conversation between the two changed instantly.

The reason was a request made by the great magician of Ferguson on behalf of the headquarters of the magicians union.

Last time, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce reached an agreement with the headquarters of the Magicians Union. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will transfer a piece of technology related to magic machinery to the headquarters of the Magicians Union every year. This is an exchange condition for Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to obtain support from the headquarters of the Magicians Union.

Originally, this was nothing, and Xu Yi also knew that the Magicians Union wanted to get a share of the profitable magic industry, which was understandable.

But this time, the request made by the great magician Ferguson on behalf of the headquarters of the magicians union surprised Xu Yi and gave birth to strong anger.

The Headquarters of the Wizards Guild said. Because the various magic patents previously applied by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to the headquarters of the Magicians Union have changed. So it needs to be re-examined.

In order to ensure the strictness and fairness of the review. Therefore, the headquarters of the Magician's Union requires Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to submit all relevant and complete materials related to these patents.

When the great magician Ferguson made this request, his expression was understated, and his tone was taken for granted, as if it was a matter of course.

However, Xu Yi was almost so angry that he cursed directly.

Dare you be a little more shameless!

Submit all complete documents related to these patents?

Wouldn't that be equivalent to giving away all the technologies involved in these patents!

The light words of the great magician Ferguson, which represent a very heavy weight.

The reason why Xu Yi went to great lengths to get the Lampari Magician Union to propose the magic patent to the headquarters of the Mainland Magician Union was because he wanted to imitate the patent laws on Earth to provide some protection for the patents of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

But I didn't expect that the headquarters of the Magician's Guild is now guarding and stealing!

If it wasn't for Xu Yi, he would have a calm personality. In addition, after serving as the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for so many years, he has already become calm. I am afraid that at that time, he would not be able to bear the anger of the great magician Ferguson and the headquarters of the magicians union it represented.

The great magician Ferguson, who sensed Xu Yi's emotions, just left a word coldly.

"If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce fails to provide complete information, then the patent may not pass the review and filing at the union headquarters, and will be declared invalid immediately, and will no longer be protected by the union headquarters. Chairman Xu, please think clearly about the consequences."

Xu Yi resisted the urge to kick in the past, and told the great magician Ferguson that this would require an internal study and discussion within the chamber of commerce before making a decision, and then ended the meeting and dialogue between the two.

However, a week has passed since that meeting, and Xu Yi has not yet held an internal meeting of the chamber of commerce to discuss this matter.

Because in his opinion. There is no need to discuss this matter at all, and he will never agree.

But the consequences of not agreeing. The great magician Ferguson has already made it quite clear.

The headquarters of the Magician's Guild will no longer provide protection for these patents, which means that anyone else can borrow and copy the various designs of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce at will without taking any responsibility.

Xu Yi can even be sure that the person who wants to do this is the headquarters of the Magician's Union itself.

So Xu Yi is now facing a very serious problem.

Losing the protection of the headquarters of the Magician's Union means that all kinds of research on magic by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Research Institute can be adopted by other magicians at will.

In fact, in the various magic machines produced by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, although magic plays a very important role, the magic designed is usually very low-end, and rarely involves particularly advanced magic.

If a senior magician is allowed to concentrate on research, it is not impossible to completely decipher the secrets of the magic circles used in these magic machines.

In addition, the appearance and mechanical design of these magic machines are not particularly complicated, and it is not particularly difficult to imitate them, so Xu Yi can almost be sure that as long as the headquarters of the Magicians Union announces that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will register at the headquarters of the Magicians Union If the various magic patents of the company expire, there will definitely be counterfeit magic machines all over the place.

Although Xu Yi believes that industrial manufacturing is not something that can be solved simply by imitation, but there are too many counterfeit products, what Xu Yi is worried about is that the magic machinery finally established by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce represents a novel, exquisite, capable of giving people The image of endless convenience is thus damaged.

Crucially, the loss of such an important constraint as patent protection would throw the industry into chaos.

Losing order and rules will do great harm to the development of the magic industry.

This is what Xu Yi was worried about because of the request from the headquarters of the Magician's Union.

As for the solution... Xu Yi is not without it, but the hidden dangers that this solution may bring make him still undecided.

However, I received this letter from Seweney today, thinking that the Kingdom of Lampari and the Kingdom of Rulson have truly stepped into the establishment of the magic industry system according to their own plans. The two empires of the Luo Empire will also start to introduce the magic industry. Xu Yi feels that there is no longer any hesitation.

After a moment of contemplation, Xu Yi stood up and went straight to Magister Camilla's private laboratory. (To be continued..)
