Nokia's patent business was hit for the first time, and Chinese enterprises are not so easy to knead

For a while , Nokia has launched a campaign against OPPO Litigation of , Among them, the lawsuit in Germany won the first stage , But Nokia is not happy yet , Recently, it was in Indonesia to OPPO The patent infringement lawsuit was dismissed , It has dealt a blow to its patent business .

Nokia has been as long as 14 In, it was the largest mobile phone enterprise in the world , However 2012 Samsung took the throne in ,2013 In, he strangely sold the mobile phone business to Microsoft , However, Microsoft has also failed to develop Nokia mobile phones , Later, Microsoft's new CEO NADELLA took office in 2016 In, Nokia mobile phone business was dumped , At this point, Nokia mobile phone almost disappeared in the long river of history .

After Nokia withdrew from the mobile phone market , Begin to turn to the communication equipment market , Acquire Siemens' shares in NOSi , Later, Alcatel - Lucent acquired , Thus, it once surpassed Ericsson to become the world's second largest communication equipment supplier .

2019 Since then , Huawei, the world's largest communication equipment supplier, suffered setbacks in overseas markets for well-known reasons , Nokia and Ericsson have welcomed golden development opportunities , Of the two 5G Equipment contracts continued to soar , However, from 2021 In terms of annual performance , Nokia and Ericsson are not very good in business , Among them, Nokia's revenue is slightly less than that of Ericsson, making it the third largest communication equipment supplier .

When Huawei suffered setbacks in overseas markets , Nokia, which has this opportunity, is not optimistic about its profits ,2021 Its profit in is 16.23 Billions of euros , And most of the profits come from patent licensing , The income from patent licensing has reached 15.02 Billions of euros , If it is not the profits contributed by patent licensing , Maybe Nokia will lose money again , In this way, we can understand why Nokia now frequently initiates patent lawsuits to claim patent fees .

Nokia aims at OPPO, It has launched a campaign against OPPO Patent litigation for , At the same time, in order to force OPPO Accept its patent fee as soon as possible , The patent lawsuits filed are all attached with conditions for prohibition , Previously, Nokia in Germany to OPPO The patent lawsuit won , thus OPPO Heyijia's mobile phones may be banned in Germany .

In the face of Nokia's arrogance ,OPPO Express “ Resolutely oppose unreasonable and high fees for patents ”, However, Nokia is in Germany for OPPO The victory of the lawsuit gave OPPO Great pressure , At present, the European market has become OPPO The fastest growing market ,OPPO And its brother brand realme Ranked fourth in the European smartphone market 、 fifth .

Under great pressure , Now Indonesia has rejected Nokia's right to OPPO Litigation of , No doubt OPPO catch one's breath ,OPPO Ranked first in the market in Indonesia , In many overseas markets , The Indonesian market should be OPPO One of the best performing markets overseas .

Facing the strength of Nokia ,OPPO Not afraid , A counterclaim has been launched against Nokia , It dares to counterclaim because it has a deep patent accumulation . Previous data show OPPO The number of patent applications is as high as 7 More than 10000 pieces , The number of patents granted exceeds 3 Thousands of pieces of , It ranks among the top ten in the global communication industry .

Nokia continues to file patent lawsuits , On the one hand, it certainly shows that it has advantages in patents , On the other hand, it shows that it is in a dilemma in the communication equipment market and difficult to make profits , In desperation, I had to hope to obtain more patent fees through patents to ensure profits , However, now the top five mobile phone brands in the world have strong patent strength , I'm afraid Nokia's plan is difficult to achieve .
