Yang Huimei came over this time, naturally it was impossible just to say something about asking Chang Haonan to find a full-time secretary.

So, after a brief greeting, she quickly got to the point.

"Mr. Chang, I have already reported to you about the earlier things, and the relevant records are all in these files, which are sorted out in the order of the type and date of the transaction, you can take a closer look at it later."

Yang Huimei said as she picked up the top copy from the stack of documents that had just been put on the table and handed it to Chang Haonan:

"But I only received this morning, and before I could contact you, I received a call from Director Song, saying that you came to the company today, and I brought it directly."

The latter opened it and found that it was a letter of explanation from the Shuguang Group.

The content is not long, to the effect that after our own testing (of course, there are users such as 112 factories who have pre-purchased the early trial version in advance), we believe that the Dawning 2000T adapted to TORCH Multiphysics has basic technical maturity and can be officially released at any time.

As mentioned earlier, TORCH Multiphysics has actually collected enough user feedback and data that the official version of the software has even been packaged, and the delay in release is largely due to waiting for the Dawning 2000T to complete stability testing.

Now, the time has clearly come.

"Is there a need for a dedicated press conference?"

Seeing Chang Haonan's gaze leave the page, Yang Huimei asked again:

"Since the end of last year, we have received a lot of letters or phone calls from users asking about the expected release date, licensing method and pricing of our official version of the software.

"In terms of the number of customers who have consulted with us, I think there is a lot of attention, and if we can take advantage of the opportunity to promote it again, the effect should be good."

"In addition, the group's cash flow is a little tight now, although we can take loans directly from the bank at present, but it should be safer to control some risks."

"Hmmm......"

Chang Haonan leaned back in his chair and did not give an answer immediately.

If it is calculated from a purely commercial point of view, then Yang Huimei's idea must be fine.

Although TORCH Multiphysics has gained a lot of popularity right now, there's no end to the hype out of it.

The number of users who have actually experienced the trial version is still relatively small, and even in Europe and the United States, the Internet is far less developed than it was more than 20 years later, so most interested potential customers are still in the stage of "I have heard of such a thing, and I know that it seems to be very powerful, but there is no specific concept".

At this juncture, the cost-effectiveness ratio of propaganda investment is bound to be the best.

But Chang Haonan is not just the general manager of the Torch Group after all.

He also has to think in the bigger picture.

That is, the Dawning 2000T, and Ding Gaoheng mentioned to him before, Huaxia is likely to join the WTO.

In fact, although it is said that it is specially adapted to the customized version, the optimization space of this "customization" is actually very limited when the degree of localization of core components is not high, especially when high-performance chips still need to rely on imports.

Compared with finding a supercomputer of the same level, the efficiency of running TORCH Multiphysics may be about 10%-15% higher.

Considering that its own performance is only about 96 years, even at 15%, it is still a huge disadvantage compared to the most advanced models in the world.

This is especially true for users in developed countries in Europe and the United States.

What's really attractive is that it allows TORCH Multiphysics to open up more of its core functionality.

Therefore, according to the previous cooperation agreement between the two parties, the profits of each Dawning 2000T will be distributed to the Torch Group.

But this also means that TORCH Multiphysics and Dawning 2000T must be highly bound.

Fortunately for the former, at the turn of the century, because the Internet bubble was still at its highest point, the world generally regarded computer software as a relatively open industry.

But computer hardware, and high-performance computers themselves, are different.

In the past, China did almost nothing in this regard, so it did not touch too much on the information industry in the WTO accession talks.

There is still a need to make a fortune in a muffled voice, so as not to cause extraneous branches at the last moment.

Although as a commercial product of public offering, whether Chang Haonan is developing a conference with great fanfare or not, the real core industry insiders will understand the relevant situation.

But the person in charge of negotiating with Huaxia is not an expert.

They just don't know.

Thinking of this, Chang Haonan sat up straight again and said to Song Jingming, who had not spoken just now:

"Ask if Academician Li Jie of the Institute of Computing is in the capital, if he is, help me make an appointment with him."

"No problem."

……

The meeting between the two was chosen at the Institute of Computing of the Academy of Sciences.

Although at the enterprise level, Torch Group and Shuguang Group are at the same level.

But after all, Li Jie is an academician, so he still needs to respect this aspect.

"Comrade Haonan, long time no see."

"Academician Li."

Chang Haonan stepped forward and shook hands with the other party.

The last time the two met was last year when they received the award together in the Great Hall.

Now that nearly a year has passed, Chang Haonan has not changed much except that his temperament is more mature, but Li Jie can really see that he is much older.

Presumably there has been a lot of pressure lately.

"Comrade Haonan, you should have read the letter I sent in the name of Shuguang Company a few days ago, right?"

Li Jie put the two cups of tea in front of Chang Haonan and himself respectively, and then sat on another sofa adjacent to Chang Haonan:

"I've heard before that in terms of software, the official version has been prepared for a long time, but I'm really sorry that the Dawning 2000T encountered some compatibility problems during the development process and was delayed for a few weeks."

The latter took a sip of tea from his cup and waved his hand at the same time:

"It doesn't matter, TORCH Multiphysics has no direct competitors around the world, and it doesn't have much impact if it's released early or a few weeks late."

This answer can be called a domineering side leak, which directly made Li Jie's movements next to him stop for a moment.

After all, the Chinese enterprises in this era can have such self-confidence, which is basically the only one.

Chang Haonan then continued:

"However, I did come this time for the Dawning 2000T."

"You say."

Li Jie is actually barely of the same generation as Du Yishan Ding Gaoheng, but he was rated as an academician relatively late, and when he met Chang Haonan, he was already a reciprocal cooperative relationship, so his attitude was much more polite.

"I hope that the sales strategy of Dawning 2000T, at least for foreign users, can be decided by our Torch Group."
