The browser developed by Wujiang Group is intended for commercial use, therefore, the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol is essential.
Tim Berners-Lee took the documents, opened them, and glanced at them briefly. He was as excited as if he had found a treasure.
Seeing this, Zhao Ye smiled and said to him, "Bernas Lee, I'll have my secretary take you to meet your team members. From now on, you'll be in charge of leading them in developing the browser!"
"OK."
Zhao Ye then waved to Liu Yinyin, who was not far away, and said, "Take Berners-Lee to his browser department!"
Liu Yinyin nodded and said to Tim Berners-Lee, "Mr. Berners-Lee, please come with me!"
"Okay, thank you for leading the way, Miss Liu."

Around 7 a.m., Zhao Ye was eating breakfast while reading the newspaper.
At this time, most outsiders were not optimistic about Wujiang Group's plan to launch its independently developed computer.
Currently, the available applications only support Windows and macOS.
Industry experts generally believe that Wujiang Group's self-developed operating system lacks a rich software ecosystem, and even with superior hardware, it has already lost in terms of software alone.
The experts even cited Wang Laboratories as an example.
In the past two years, the typewriter market in Europe and the United States has become sluggish. Wang Laboratories suffered heavy losses and urgently needed to transform itself, so it also started making personal computers.
The current personal computer market is dominated by IBM-PC compatible machines and Apple computers.
Unfortunately, Dr. An Wang had always been very dissatisfied with IBM and regarded it as his lifelong enemy. Therefore, when Wang Laboratories was developing personal computers, it was developing a completely different set of computer standards from IBM-PC. Whether it was hardware or operating system, Wang Laboratories was unconventional.
However, Wang Laboratories is a well-known company in the United States, and surprisingly, there are quite a few software and hardware developers who support this standard.
However, even a powerful company like Wang Laboratories ultimately failed in its attempt to develop a personal computer.
Wang Laboratories' foundation in the computer market is far superior to that of Wujiang Group.
Wujiang Group is actually trying to create its own computer standard, just like Wang Laboratories. Isn't that courting death?
Lessons from the past should guide future actions.
Wujiang Group has gotten too arrogant!
Under normal circumstances, the experts are not wrong. Most PC software on the market is incompatible with the HarmonyOS operating system, and it will be very difficult for HarmonyOS to gain users' favor.
But what does it matter?
That's just under normal circumstances.
Under the leadership of Zhao Ye, the leader of Wujiang Group, the HarmonyOS operating system completely crushed Windows.
HarmonyOS has a beautiful interface, rich and colorful functions, and is simple and easy to use. Even computer novices can get started in no time.
For the numerous application software programs, Wujiang Group can focus on the big picture and let go of the small ones. Developing the software that users frequently use will solve most problems.
Because from the very beginning, Wujiang Group's target audience was not computer experts, scholars, or researchers.
"Shenzhou" computers are highly versatile, offering both work and entertainment capabilities. They can program, create graphics, play games, watch VCD movies, and listen to music, while also meeting basic office needs. Their primary target audience is the average consumer. Can current Windows computers play VCD movies?
It's not that Wujiang Group doesn't want to do business with enterprises or research institutions; it just has to proceed gradually.
For third-party software developers to allocate additional funds to develop HarmonyOS versions of their software, firstly, HarmonyOS must have very high sales volume, and secondly, HarmonyOS must be exceptionally excellent.
If we're talking about excellence, then the HarmonyOS system goes without saying.
However, since "Shenzhou Computer" has not yet been launched, the sales of the HarmonyOS system are zero, making it difficult to get third-party software developers to support it. Perhaps, given Wujiang Group's reputation, a small number of software developers will indeed be willing to support the HarmonyOS system.
However, in order to keep the HarmonyOS operating system a secret, Zhao Ye has not yet chosen to cooperate with third-party software developers.
Zhao Ye believed that once Wujiang Group had completed its series of strategic moves, the sales of "Shenzhou Computer" would surely skyrocket, and there would be no shortage of third-party software developers coming to cooperate.
Zhao Ye put down the newspaper and finished his breakfast.
That day, he set off for the Xichang Satellite Launch Center.
He didn't reach his destination until evening.
"Welcome, boss (General Manager Zhao), to the Xichang Satellite Launch Center!"
Chu Peng, Liao Xinghua, and Peng Hongliang, the head of the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, came to welcome Zhao Ye.
Zhao Ye smiled and shook hands with everyone to greet them.
They walked and talked, and soon arrived at the cafeteria.
"Mr. Zhao, there are no hotels near the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, so you'll have to make do with the cafeteria. But the food here is alright."
"It's okay, I often eat in the company cafeteria when I'm at work."
Zhao Ye and the others found a place to sit down, and soon the staff brought out the food.
The group ate and chatted.
"Asia One" will be launched by the Long March 3 carrier rocket.
Chu Peng, the general manager of the Long March Rocket Company, then gave Zhao Ye a detailed introduction to the Long March 3 carrier rocket.
The Long March 3 carrier rocket is a three-stage liquid-propellant carrier rocket developed by China in the 1970s and 1980s for launching geosynchronous orbit communication satellites. As early as 1984, the Long March 3 successfully launched China's first communication satellite, Dongfanghong-2. Therefore, everyone is quite confident about this launch plan.
