Chapter 940 No Way, I Was Stabbed in the Back?

This outrageous operation by Samsung Offshore Engineering actually disrupted Chang Haonan's originally planned schedule to a certain extent.

If potential public opinion risks like this cannot be nipped in the bud in advance, once they ferment, it will be difficult to resolve them.

Therefore, throughout late October, he was running around on this matter.

As a result, after finally settling this matter, another even more outrageous job was involved.

In short, although Chang Haonan had left the follow-up processing of the Aegis baseline 7.1 intelligence directly to Fu Youquan, just properly arranging the handover and liaison with Yin Zhongxian took up a lot of his time.

However, the impact of this emergency incident is not entirely negative.

At least, Torch Group's popularity has increased by more than one level than in the past.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chang Haonan also asked the publicity department to concentrate their efforts to create a wave of momentum for the upcoming 2.0 version of TORCH Multiphysics.

Especially in the field of computational fluid dynamics, which is currently the most stressful area——

Also due to the delay of Samsung Offshore Engineering, when competitor COMSOL released version 2.5 with huge performance improvements, Chang Haonan did not participate in the comprehensive testing of the software at the first time, and the technical department led by Wei Yongming is now working for Torch Group He was so busy with his own update plan that it was obviously impossible to spare too many manpower.

In the end, I could only focus on the numerical calculation business department that Liu Hongbo was responsible for, and tried to do several projects with the new version of COMSOL Multiphysics, which was a simple way to understand the current development level of our friends.

This led to the fact that in the last few days of late September, COMSOL promotion and advertisements were almost everywhere in the entire computational fluid dynamics circle.

Although the current business volume of Torch Group and the number of reservations for TORCH Multiphysics 2.0 have not been significantly affected by this, as a leader in the industry, it certainly cannot remain indifferent to this.

…

When Liu Hongbo and Song Jingming found Chang Haonan together, the latter was in the computer room of the Torch Laboratory, optimizing the image segmentation and target tracking algorithms of the Ocean-1 satellite.

In fact, "processing remote sensing data on the satellite side" is a technical issue that needs to be overcome urgently in the third decade of the 21st century.

Judging from the current level of aerospace-grade hardware in the early 21st century, it is impossible to complete a very complicated calculation process.

Although according to the wishes of the National Space Administration, this time we only need to make some sense and verify the technical feasibility. We can wait a few years to develop truly functional satellites.

But Chang Haonan felt that there was not completely no room for maneuver.

Because Haiyang-1 is not an ordinary remote sensing satellite.

The core load on it is a marine surveillance system.

Since it is ocean "surveillance", it is naturally impossible to watch everything.

Instead, stare at something important.

Therefore, in an image or a series of images taken by Ocean-1, there are only a few specific target areas that people are really interested in.

Therefore, a more realistic way of thinking is actually -

The image is separated on the satellite side, and the area where the target may exist is extracted, and then transmitted to the ground for image recognition, positioning, and even understanding.

In this way, spaceborne equipment does not need to bear too high computing intensity, but it can greatly reduce the amount of data transmitted from space to ground, as well as the workload of subsequent ground data processing.

Kill two birds with one stone.

It can not only complete technical verification tasks, but also allow Ocean One to perform some functions.

It was originally expected that this work would start in the second half of October, but it was delayed for a while, so the progress was delayed by half a month.

Fortunately, Chang Haonan's schedule is already sufficiently advanced, so it will not affect the launch window of Ocean One.

Liu Hongbo and Song Jingming saw that their boss was busy and did not dare to interrupt immediately. Instead, they waited until Chang Haonan looked up from behind the monitor.

"Mr. Chang."

Song Jingming took two steps forward:

"We came here this time for the sake of COMSOL..."

He was only halfway through his words when Chang Haonan raised his hand to stop him:

"It's not convenient to talk about this in the computer room. Let's go up and talk."

After finishing speaking, he waited for a few seconds, and after confirming that the test data had been completely imported, he hit the Enter key.

Then he took off his lab coat and returned to the office in the main building with his two subordinates.

As usual, Chang Haonan still listens to technical issues first.

"For this trial, a total of 9 people from our Numerical Computing Business Department were assigned to participate. However, one of them was assigned to an important calculation business midway through the trial, so it was not completed. Including myself, the evaluations of the other 8 people have been Sent to your email."

Liu Hongbo has now completely adapted to the feeling of being a subordinate to Chang Haonan, and his title has become CEO Chang as smoothly as silk.

Don't ask, just ask, it smells really good.

Chang Haonan also opened the office computer at this time, entered the mailbox skillfully, and immediately saw the email sent by Liu Hongbo.

Located in the second position of your inbox.

There is a PDF file attached.

The size is not large.

Even with the Internet speed of 2001, it downloaded quickly.

Chang Haonan quickly looked at the computing environment and project introductions mentioned in the reports of the eight people, and frowned slightly:

"These tests...are all very mild..."

What he has always wanted to know most is how the other party will solve the problem of high computing weight in the calculation process of the viscoelastic constitutive equation.

Unfortunately, none of these tests involve this.

Liu Hongbo also looked embarrassed at this time:

"Mr. Chang, our numerical calculation business department is not professional in testing, so we can only use it by the way in the process of doing the project."

"First of all, most of the projects we have on hand are entrusted by companies and schools with insufficient levels, so the difficulty is not high."

"Furthermore, the final calculation results are still responsible to the client, so even if we really encounter that kind of complex or difficult problem, we dare not try it with unfamiliar software casually..."

"Alas...that's the truth."

Chang Haonan nodded slightly, and then looked at the more detailed evaluation content behind.

It must be admitted that for these relatively common CFD processes, COMSOL Multiphysics 2.5 has high computational efficiency and accuracy.

Especially when the computer hardware performance is limited, it can even surpass TORCH Multiphysics in some projects.

This is the first time in the past few years.

"Our opponents are also making efforts..."

Chang Haonan sighed.

Old developed countries, if you push them to the limit, they will always come up with something.

Seeing that Liu Hongbo had no intention of continuing the topic, Song Jingming took out a printed "Publicity Plan" from his briefcase:

"Mr. Chang, the idea of ​​the publicity department is that the efficiency of computing software is actually difficult to objectively reflect through one or a few data. If we use the Spring and Autumn style, it will be suspected of false publicity, which will damage our own brand in the long run."

"Therefore, the next publicity in the field of CFD should focus on other aspects. For example, compared with competitors whose main users are universities and research institutions, our software is more time-tested in the commercial field. We can focus on some products or projects that have TORCH Multiphysics involved and have a greater influence."

"For example, we have already negotiated with Ferrari...not the Ferrari that makes machine tools, but the Ferrari that cooperates with us to develop racing cars. We will hold an end-of-season open day in December. At that time, we will design a special racing paint job with elements of our company to celebrate their fourth consecutive team championship."

In this timeline, Ferrari won the team championship as early as 1998 and has never handed over this honor since then.

The Torch Group's logo has been the second most dazzling position on the side of its racing car in the past four years.

In addition, the Torch Group has also participated in the development of racing cars in the past three years to a considerable extent through the Jinling Research Center.

In short, it is indeed an excellent promotional material.

Chang Haonan is still relatively relieved about the work handled by Song Jingming.

Since he was transferred to the Aviation Power Group, all non-technical daily work of the Torch Group Technology has been presided over by the former.

For more than two years, there has never been any major chaos.

Therefore, seeing this plan, Chang Haonan's mood has also been relieved a lot.

Brand effect is generally a weapon used by European and American companies to suppress Chinese companies.

But in numerical calculation, the situation is completely the opposite.

Torch Group is definitely a golden signboard.

Chang Haonan rubbed his swollen eyebrows with one hand, and prepared to close the browser page with the other hand.

However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered the email that was ranked above Liu Yongbo.

According to the rule, that email should have been received a short time ago.

So, he stopped and clicked back into the inbox.

After a closer look, he found that the email was actually from Dassault.

There are actually many exchanges between the two companies, but not many of them can be communicated openly through email channels.

In fact, it is only the Falcon Z business jet project...

After clicking it, as expected, it is the design optimization report of the Falcon Z business jet.

It is not an important content.

In fact, it is a group message to all responsible persons for backup.

There is no need to reply.

Therefore, Chang Haonan just scrolled to the bottom of the email page and did not intend to download the attachment.

However, a file in the attachment list aroused his interest.

Strictly speaking, it is the extension of this file.

.

cmph

"Hiss..."

Chang Haonan's eyelids twitched-

Since the .mph extension has been occupied by TORCH Multiphysics, the extension of similar products of COMSOL has to be set to .cmph...

In other words.

He seems to have been...

Backstabbed...
