As soon as Zhou Shuo said this, not only did the investors below change their faces, but even Wu Changgeng restrained his smile. He was a little annoyed that these investors were all brought by himself with great effort. It can be said that they were holding them in the palm of their hands and afraid of falling, and holding them in their mouths and melting them. They were worried that they would be dissatisfied with the small money to slip away. How could they actually take the initiative to push people out?

"Principal Zhou has any requirements, so everyone has to ask for something from you, and you can discuss anything." Wu Changgeng made a fuss and cooperated with Zhou Shuo to ease the atmosphere, for fear that one of the investors below would run away. Over the years, Taihe District has been living a hard life, and losing any investment in any company will make him feel pain for a long time.

Zhou Shuo said calmly: "My request is difficult or simple. That is, if Fanhan Group reaches a cooperative relationship with you, we require subcontractors to pass the CMM level 2 certification within two to three years. If they can pass the third-level certification, we will give priority to subcontracting the business to such companies."

Wu Changgeng and investors didn't know much about CMM, so they didn't attack immediately. However, although their expressions were not very natural, at least half of the conference room were from Fanhan Group, and the atmosphere was not very tense.

The following investor asked Zhou Shuo curiously: "What is this CMM certification? Which unit did you apply for it? I haven't heard that our country has this standard."

Zhou Shuo clapped his hands, and a staff member brought up a stack of brochures and distributed them to every investor present one by one. He then talked freely until he was sure that everyone had obtained the information.

"The so-called CMM certification, which means Capability Maturity Model certification. CMM certification is an authoritative evaluation and certification system in the software industry originated in the United States in 1991. It defines software engineering management in detail. Its theoretical basis is that as long as we concentrate our efforts to establish the infrastructure of software engineering and continuously improve management practices and processes, we can overcome difficulties in software production."

Rather than saying that CMM is a capability indicator of a software enterprise, it is better to say that it is the process of software enterprises establishing a modern software engineering management. Its core value is to document and standardize the software process. The development process can be improved according to needs. By adopting review and various management tools, the quality and efficiency of the software are ensured.

"So CMM is an American certification?" The person who asked the question before said with a ugly expression: "Where should we go to find American agencies to evaluate this for us? Besides, what's the use of this thing after passing it? As for the software, can it be used? How can there be so many words?"

This is not something that someone deliberately argues with Zhou Shuo. He really doesn't pay attention to the quality management system. It has been a common problem for Chinese companies in the 1990s. Even twenty years later, all kinds of certifications are superficial and there are many people who deal with inspections. At this time, people could not even implement the ISO standards. What's more, CMMs who have never heard of it. This free dispersion method has indeed created the glory of the Chinese software industry for a period of time. Unfortunately, after software development became more and more complicated, the Chinese software industry, which lacks synergy, failed in front of various large foreign software.

Zhou Shuo was not upset. He explained with a smile: "CM certification is not a certification led by the US government, but a standard in the software industry. The US branch of Xinke Computer Company has passed the third-level CMM certification, and the Xiucheng headquarters is currently applying for the qualification for CMM certification. If it goes well, after May this year, you can conduct CMM level 2 and below certification consultation work."

This is not a shameless statement. Chinese software companies are popular with CMM certification after 2003. However, 20 years later, Huaxing Group is among the companies that passed the CMM level 5 certification in China. Although they have not organized the certification process of Huaxing Group, they have never eaten pork and always seen pig runs. Xinke Computer Company has been consciously using CMM standards since the beginning. After more than half a year of construction, it is natural to apply for CMM certification now.

Nowadays, investment promotion is the main theme. Where are these investors going? Zhou Shuo actually has to set up obstacles artificially. Naturally, some people below sneered unconvincedly: "Haha. Principal Zhou is a bit too much, right? Even Secretary Wu knows that he needs to simplify the approval process, but why do you have to increase the threshold for investment when you are here?"

Zhou Shuo waved his hand and explained: "I'm not creating trouble for everyone, but I'm reducing trouble for everyone. If Chinese software companies want to join the international competition, they must abide by the rules of the game. CMM certification is not just an exam, but also a process for software companies to improve their own level. For business cooperation with Japanese companies, the biggest obstacle between China and Japan is trust. Without CMM certification, Chinese software companies will have to spend a long time to gain the trust of others. Even the most likely thing is that you have put in a lot of time and energy. The result is still not to enter."

Not everyone agrees with his statement. Someone who thinks he can do business and can build relationships came up and said almost: "Principal Zhou's requirements are too high. Isn't our contractor Fanhan Group? It's just that he doesn't need to deal with Japanese manufacturers. With Principal Zhou here, why bother applying for this CMM certification? Besides, if everyone has passed this CMM certification, they have to do business with the Japanese by themselves. That's not the demolition of Principal Zhou's station?"

"If you have such an idea to cooperate with Fanhan Group, then I have to say regretfully that we do not welcome such partners." Zhou Shuo said seriously without any appreciation: "If you cannot open up the gap in technology, others can do the business you can do, and it won't take long for an industry to fall into an unprofitable situation. Fanhan Group needs stable and continuous progressive partners. Companies that are not motivated in technology cannot keep up with us."

Speaking of which, this is also a disadvantage of China's abundant human resources. If an industry has no technical barriers and its profits are still acceptable, a group of vultures will immediately rush in. They will not cultivate the market, but rely on low labor costs and abundant capital, with the mentality of making a profit and leaving, and will not stop until the entire industry is reduced to no profit. After destroying one market after another, they will wave their wings and fly up the sky to find the next pathetic prey.

Of course, Zhou Shuo does not want the market he has worked hard to develop to become the prey of these vultures.

After he said this, several city leaders stood up, snorted coldly and turned around and left. The staff who were accompanying him were about to chase him out, but Zhou Shuo pressed his arms and signaled them to sit down again.

These people had a clear idea. They thought that there was a good place to pick up the Western City, but they didn't know that they had to serve people. It would be fine if they worked for the country, but a private enterprise would come to certify a national institution. Why is this? After all, not all research institutes are desperate like the sixty-four institutes. Some days are still acceptable or the leaders are still able to live a good life. Naturally, they don't bother to leave their faces and compete with a group of people for food.

"Principal Zhou, isn't this a bit too arbitrary? I'm asking me to say that the dishes are all dishes, so I'll eat them first." Wu Changgeng looked at the people walking out of the conference room and said with distress.

Zhou Shuo shook his head firmly and retorted: "Secretary Wu, if the food is not delicious, it will cause diarrhea. In the end, even the good food must be spit out together, and it will be less than worth the effort."

Wu Changgeng sat in the center and raised his hand, but he didn't say a word. Looking at the few people leaving, he seemed to see the money flying away with his wings, and his heart was so painful that it was dripping blood.

Zhou Shuo looked at the backs of several people disappearing at the door in silence. He smiled dismissively and continued: "Of course, in order to reflect the software park's support role in the park's enterprises, the Software Technology Development Fund composed of the Electronics Committee of the Xiucheng Science and Technology Association will issue subsidies of 50 to 1 million to enterprises that have passed the CMM first-level and second-level certification."

As soon as Zhou Shuo finished speaking, a breath of breath in the room suddenly appeared. At this time, most of the software companies in Bohai Province were still three or five people, with two or three guns, and the scale of dozens or hundreds of people was to die. If they could pass the CMM level 2 certification, it would be a subsidy of one million yuan, and the salary of one hundred programmers could be paid for more than a year. The biggest cost of software companies is labor costs. Excluding this, wouldn’t the annual income be net profit?

If those leaders of those institutes heard Zhou Shuo's words, they would probably regret it. The staff members in their institute paid lower salaries, they were already in a state of idleness, and the wages of employees were burdened by the state. If they passed the CMM certification, wouldn't this 500,000 or one million be entered into the unit's small treasury?

"Okay, if you have no problems, let's talk about the outsourcing business allocation." Zhou Shuo waved, the staff pulled up the curtains to cover the sun, turned on the projector and projected an image on the wall of the conference room.

Zhou Shuo reached out to pick up a teaching stick, looked around the audience, and said with a pretentious smile: "Xinke Computer Company's subcontracting business is divided into three types, one is the low-end data entry and software testing business in the Japanese market. The second is to accept the technology transfer of Xinke Computer and outsource the non-core parts of the ERP software. The third is the targeted commissioned development of Fanhan Group."

"Among these, I want to introduce to you the third type, what is the targeted commissioned development of Fanhan Group."
