In the busy life, time flies very quickly. Lin Baijie, Huang Weichang and others watched, and there was no need to do the chores of the company and the factory.

Huang Xiuyuan, who was liberated, has not been idle these days. He and Lu Xuedong are discussing technical matters.

Although the laboratory he needs has not been completed yet, it does not mean that he cannot do things.

In terms of software laboratory, Inspur’s engineers have rushed over from Pengcheng and started to build a server group.

Now Lu Xuedong and him are busy building the company's official website and developing some practical mini programs for internal computers.

In order to increase some staff, he also instructed Lin Baijie to recruit graduates from this year's fresh graduates to serve as interns in the company.

Huang Xiuyuan, who is busy writing software, has referred to many foreign industrial design software.

For example, Autodesk Moldflow Adviser, as the Autodesk digital prototype solution, can simulate and evaluate the design solutions, optimize and process them before processing and manufacturing, reduce potential design errors, shorten product development cycles, and reduce development costs.

Also produced by AutoCAD Co., Ltd., AutoCAD software is an automatic computer-aided design software that can be used for drawing, two-dimensional drawing, and basic three-dimensional design. Through it, it can automatically draw without knowing how to program.

Therefore, it is widely used worldwide and can be used in many fields such as civil construction, decoration, industrial drawing, engineering drawing, electronic industrial clothing processing, etc.

The Pro/Engineer operation software under PTC is a three-dimensional software that integrates CAD/CAM/CAE.

Pro/Englneer software is known for its parameterization and is the earliest application of parameterization technology. It occupies an important position in the current three-dimensional modeling software field.

As a new standard in the field of mechanical CAD/CAE/CAM in today's world, it has been recognized and promoted by the industry. It is one of the mainstream CAD/CAM/CAE software today, especially in the field of domestic product design in China, and occupies an important position.

In addition, SolidWorks (developed by SolidWorks), Unigraphics NX (Siemens), Cimatron (Simeichuang), Mastercam (US CNC Software Company), CATIA (Soda), Delcam (Dalcon), Edgecam (Path Company), etc., this series of industrial design software.

Using these software as a reference, coupled with some experience in later generations of industrial software, a new industrial software platform was re-written.

This new industrial software platform is quite an industrial software library, and it is also quite difficult for him to write it alone.

At present, we can only "borrow" foreign software, use foreign industrial software as the master to conduct secondary development, add a lot of future industrial software programs, as well as some improvements and optimizations.

Many optimization plans are even used by these foreign companies. Huang Xiuyuan, who does not want to be stuck by the neck, directly adopts the use of the principles.

Anyway, the other party has not developed it now, so he takes it out first and registers a patent first, which can achieve the effect of checking and balancing foreigners to a certain extent.

However, the current industrial software platform is still a long way to go, so there is no problem using it yourself. I want to use it for promotion. Foreigners’ patent barriers are not a joke. The court summons are just a matter of minutes to make the face confused.

As for the idea of ​​ignoring patents, unless you have the ability to turn over the table, it is better to be careful.

There are currently eight sub-softwares in the pieced together industrial software platform.

Because he is familiar with the two sub-software and has participated in the design in the future, the current localization level has reached 27% and 22% respectively.

The localization degree of other sub-software seems very weak, at most only between 1% and 3%, and the English version has been initially Chineseized.

Huang Xiuyuan was not disappointed in this. When he recruited enough programmers and engineers, the comprehensive localization of the software was an inevitable strategy he formulated.

Fortunately, software patents are not difficult to bypass. Unlike hardware patents, many hardware have a lot of patents, but many fundamental patents that cannot be bypassed.

Although industrial software is different from ordinary civilian commercial software, Huang Xiuyuan is still confident that he can compete with foreign companies.

Generally, as long as the patent with independent property rights accounts for about 30% of the software patents, the patents can be basically exempted from each other.

That is, companies of the same type use each other's patents, and the two parties reach a relative balance in patents, and can only exempt the other party from using their own patents.

Similar to the relationship between Huawei and Qualcomm, on the one hand, it can curb each other's patent barriers, and on the other hand, it can reduce the cost of patent use.

Huang Xiuyuan planned to use this method to invest in large quantities of patents and form a patent moat. Maybe he could in turn collect the other party’s patent fees.

This is to walk other people's paths and leave others with no way out.

In fact, as long as you make up your mind to replace software technology locally, if someone has money, there is nothing impossible.

If you refer to the situation of commercial software, you can basically find a problem, that is, "reference" in this industry has become popular.

It is because of the patent of software that it is difficult to avoid being imitated, and it is also difficult to sue the other party for infringing the patent because of the other party’s imitation.

For example, let’s say that Company A has developed a software that implements functional APP through AB+BB programming method; on the other hand, Company B sees that this software is good, so he lets programmers realize similar functional APP through B+B+A+B.

Did Company B violate the patent law in this process?

The answer is: No.

Because functions cannot apply for patents, the part that can apply for patents is the way to realize functions, that is, technological innovation.

Software programming is not like chemical materials, and it is not difficult to bypass patents.

Perhaps the patents of industrial software have some patent problems, but they are just a little troublesome and are not yet at the point of difficulty.

The problem that truly restricts domestic industrial software is not a technical problem, but a software market and ecology.

Industrial software is different from commercial software. Industrial software is very closed, and developing industrial software requires you to have considerable industrial design experience.

In this regard, Western countries have obvious first-mover advantages. By occupying the market and a solid ecology, it is difficult for latecomers to intervene in this market.

Huang Xiuyuan planned to start a new job from the beginning, so he naturally would not forget the problem of industrial software.

If you don’t use your own industrial software from the beginning, rely too much on foreign software and use it in the future, it will be a damaging move.

He was about to say something to Lu Xuedong when the cell phone in his pocket vibrated.

When I saw that it was my father’s phone call, I looked up and the wall clock stopped near 4:42.

"Dad, I'll be here soon."

"You boy, I knew you forgot, drive slowly."
