The two sides indicated that they would be more open and cooperative and committed to exploring the future with science and technology.
Li Zhengying, head of Google patents, said, "We are very happy to reach a patent cross-licensing agreement with Tencent. Through this agreement, technology companies will be able to focus on creating better products and services for users. "
Yan Xu, general manager of Tencent's intellectual property department, said, "I am very happy to promote the cooperation between two leading technology companies. Through cooperation, we can bring better products and services to users around the world."
It is not clear what the patents involved in signing the license agreement are related to. According to the Patent Observation Report on Internet Technology Innovation (20 15) released by Peking University Internet Law Center in April, 20 16, in the Internet field, Tencent ranked first in the number of patent applications in China, second only to Microsoft and Google in the world.
In addition, the Jedi survival that Tencent has been promoting recently has also made new moves. The plug-in of "Jesus Survival" on Steam is rampant, which Tencent, which represents the national service, can't stand. Recently, Tencent announced that it will build a set of credit system for the national service of Jedi Survival.
Tencent said that the system aims to encourage players to continue to maintain active and healthy game behaviors, reduce cheating and negative behaviors such as using plug-ins, hanging up and malicious abuse in the game, and provide players with a better game environment and experience.
Although the national service has not yet been launched, Tencent has begun to crack down on plug-ins. Recently, with the cooperation of the police, 30 cases of plug-in production of Jedi Survival were cracked and 120 people were arrested.
In fact, all the above measures to combat plug-in come from the five anti-plug-in plans of the national service "Jedi Survival" announced by Tencent at the end of last year.
According to the plan, Tencent will conduct a comprehensive "attack and defense" with plug-in producers and users from different dimensions such as operation, technology, supervision, law and self-control. Cut off the manufacture of plug-ins from the source, use the system to block the use of plug-ins, positively guide players to stop using plug-ins, and attack the plug-in market from the demand side, thus purifying the game environment for Jedi survival.
