"It's so cold!"

"No wonder the Russians are addicted to alcohol!"

That night, Luo Wenxian came out after taking a shower and shivered. Even with the heating, he felt cold. He put on clothes in a wet body and then slept into the quilt.

The cold wind was howling outside the window, and it seemed that it was still snowing.

This is a very high-end foreign-related hotel in Moscow, and the conditions are pretty good. Luo Wenxian leaned against the head of the bed and flipped through the information to make final preparations for tomorrow's meeting.

The inventor of Tetris, Alexei Pakitnov, worked at the Moscow Science and Computer Center and used his time to tinker with this mini game, which was first played on a computer.

Due to the Soviet system, individuals cannot talk about copyright, they are all public. The copyright of Tetris belongs to an organization called the "All Alliance Electronic Equipment Federation".

The copyright issue is very complicated, and the explanation is very long-winded and will not be repeated.

Simply put:

A British man named Stein originally owned the computer copyright of Tetris, but he reselled it randomly, regardless of the copyrights of computers, arcades, home game consoles, and handheld consoles. He claimed that he had it and resold several companies.

These companies continue to resell, so many companies have various copyrights, which are actually invalid.

American media interviewed Pakitnov, and it was exposed in Europe and the United States, and everyone knew what was going on. So, Americans, British, and Japanese came to grab copyright, and Nintendo became the winner in the end.

As for this experience, I later made a movie called "Tetris". Those who are interested can go and have a look.

So the current situation is that Tetris only signed the computer copyright with Stein, and the price was super cheap, only $10,000. However, due to the subsequent competition for several companies to raise prices, Nintendo spent more than 10 million dollars to get other copyrights.

Chen Qi is now a waste-taking person, so he rushes to grab the copyright before them.

However, there is also a problem: the agreement signed by Stein is not perfect, and there is no clear definition of "computer", but a general determination: any computer system model is included in the agreement.

This includes home gaming machines - home gaming machines are considered computer systems or electronic gaming machines, and this definition is very vague at the moment.

Chen Qi's task to Luo Wenxian is: he must take over the copyright of the handheld console, and then talk about the copyright of the home game console. The arcade copyright can be abandoned.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and Luo Wenxian got up and went to open the door, which was an interpreter.

"Mr. Luo! Ivan called me and picked us up at nine o'clock tomorrow to meet with the other party."

“For the first time, I’ve talked to a government agency about copyright, not individuals.”

"There is no way, the Soviet Union is like this."

The translator walked in, sat down and smiled, "And I reminded again that we were getting a business visa, and our itinerary was planned every day, so we really couldn't act randomly."

"I understand, I understand!"

Luo Wenxian nodded. The translation was owned by Oriental Company. The two of them needed to cooperate, so they did not shy away. They said the situation: "The copyright of the handheld console is blank, and we have a great chance. The copyright of the home game console and the computer are mixed together, and the Soviets are still in the dark. I plan to tell the truth and let the Soviets and Stein re-sign the agreement to separate the two."

"Will they agree?"

"That's up to the talk. Oh, by the way... Mr. Chen also made a special trip to give him three tricks."

After saying that, he opened his suitcase and found three ancient style tips. The translator was amused and laughed and said, "I thought you were an adjective, but I didn't expect it to be true? Well, our boss likes to imitate antiques."

"I think these three opinions..."

Shh!

The translator suddenly whispered, opened the door for no reason and stood in the corridor, and signaled him to come out too. Luo Wenxian had never been to the Soviet Union, so he followed him out in confusion and asked, "What are you doing?"

"This is a foreign-related hotel. You don't think there is no eavesdropping device inside, do you?" the translator lowered his voice.

"Ah?" Luo Wenxian also subconsciously lowered the volume.

"Be careful! The KGB is so powerful."

The translator took the tip, then opened it and saw three notes inside.

The first one reads: "Little White Birch!"

The second one reads: "We represent China!"

The third one is: "Spending money!"

"Do you understand the meaning?" asked the translator.

"Of course!"

…………

The next day.

Da Ivan drove the broken van to pick him up again and went to the "All Alliance Electronic Equipment Federation".

This is how you are currently discussing business with the Soviet Union. If you apply for it, they will give you an official invitation letter. You can only enter the relevant agency and unit with the invitation letter.

It snowed a little last night, and it was like freezing rain. The van stuck to the cold street and creaked. Several people looked out curiously. When they passed by a shop, they saw a long queue at the door.

Everyone had nervousness and expectation on their faces, but the team was only halfway through. The waiter came out and seemed to say something, and the rest were wailing.

"What's wrong with them?" Luo Wenxian asked in Cantonese.

"They need food and daily necessities, but the Soviet Union lacks these things. Well, let's not talk about them."

The translator used his eyes to signal Da Ivan.

Soon, they arrived at a very grand building, and after entering, they showed an invitation letter and were taken to an office, where a middle-aged man with a big nose sat.

“…”

Luo Wenxian frowned, feeling that this kind of meeting was very irregular.

Five people came to our side and met in a small office. It was obvious that the other party had no intention of preparing.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man introduced himself and was a subordinate official. Luo Wenxian also explained the purpose of the visit. The other party nodded and listened very seriously, but said, "We will study it and notify you at that time."

"How long will it take?"

"This is hard to say, you guys go back first."

After staying for about forty minutes, he came out. The translator looked at Luo Wenxian, and Luo Wenxian said, "Wait first and see!"

...

So I waited for a day.

Waited for another day.

On the third day, everyone couldn't help it: "The bureaucracy is too slow!"

"How long will it take to delay such a small matter? Even a formal leader is not sent out!"

“Our visa has a deadline!”

“What should I do now?”

"I want to talk to Ivan, call him!"

The translator called Ivan, and Luo Wenxian did not talk about the negotiations, but said, "There is no reply over there for the time being. We are bored. Can you take us to visit Moscow?"

"What you got was a business invitation letter, not a travel invitation, so it was difficult to get it."

"Can't you be comfortable?"

"Well……"

"Oh, we finally came to Moscow once and wanted to buy some souvenirs to go back. Then you can take us to shop and see Moscow's specialties. This is OK, right? I heard that your little white birch is very famous."

Luo Wenxian deviated for a moment.

"Little White Birch is really great, but it was just banned. It was closed in July when the last Little White Birch in Moscow closed..."
