Peer-to-peer download speeds are quite fast; the only downside is that the line is often busy, causing lag for other users.
This is unavoidable unless Xing Baohua uses software to create a separate thread for them. It's like building a side road next to a main road and making them squeeze onto it.
He drove his luxury sports car freely on the wide road.
But is it necessary to create a separate thread for other visitors?
In theory, it is necessary, because point-to-point communication uses only one route. Once the traffic increases, if someone wants to download something, will the traffic not be split?
Xing Baohua's speed was affected.
The advantage of P2P is that the larger the download volume, the faster the speed. This is because many servers hold seeds, forming a network-like multi-threaded channel.
Unlike the current single-threaded downloading, even if P2P download software were developed, Xing Baohua only required that the software's performance ensure stability.
There's a separate thread, or channel, that keeps the download speed stable, but the exact speed is currently unknown.
Based on the current peer-to-peer download speeds, the results are quite good. The highest speed reached was 4 Mbps, and the lowest was around 1 Mbps, which made Xing Baohua very satisfied.
Even at this speed, it would still take three or four hours to download.
To complete the download within half an hour, stability is required.
It seems that spending money is still a good thing; the difference between free and paid services on certain platforms like Baidu and Xiaomi is just too great.
When testing network speed, it's not just about the speed itself, but also about the device's operation, heat generation, and so on. Excessive heat can cause significant damage to chips and electrical components.
A temperature sensor test showed that the temperature was generally around 60-70 degrees Celsius, even with the addition of an aluminum heat sink which caused the temperature to dissipate faster.
We tested the optical modem and the unfinished software. Three or four days passed like this, with everyone searching for bugs.
During this period, Huang Xingyao, who was in the United States, also withdrew to Hong Kong based on Xing Baohua's advice.
Xing Baohua took some time to meet with him, first letting him take a break for a while, and then making adjustments to his work later.
After some time, Xing Baohua plans to relinquish his position as president of Huahong and let Huang Xingyao take over. He will remain as chairman, keeping a firm grip on the overall situation.
It's a pity he's been too busy lately to help Huang Xingyao introduce those second-generation shareholders.
The P2P software is finally out. After several days of testing and many changes, it's quite stable.
Although the program is a bit large and consumes a bit of hard drive space, it's still a very advanced program. Putting everything else aside, just this one download software, if run well, could form a company worth hundreds of millions.
The initial benefits can be enjoyed for several rounds.
That afternoon, Xing Baohua called Brother Camel and asked him to meet up for tea, a meal, and a chat.
Camel Brother has been in good form lately, filming several movies, and it's said that he received a Best Supporting Actor nomination at the Hong Kong Film Awards.
He has a lot of followers who all rely on him for their livelihood.
Xing Baohua and Brother Camel address each other as brothers and are very close. There's no formality between them.
"Brother, what trouble did you run into this time when you invited me out for tea?" Camel asked as he sipped his tea.
“It’s not a big problem. Do you have a smuggler running around Japan and Okinawa?” Xing Baohua asked.
“There was one before, who ran to Southeast Asia and the US, but he was unlucky and got taken down by the marine police at the end of last year. I know the person who took over now, but we're not close! Brother, are you asking for someone else, or do you have someone under you who wants to go there?” Camel Bro said.
"I'm sending a few people over to do some things. This can't be done through the official channels; we can only..."
"I understand, I understand, no need to say anything, I'll figure it out, about how many people will go and when they'll leave."
"Around fifteen or sixteen. If you can arrange it in the next couple of days, call me and let me know the time," Xing Baohua said.
"So many people are going! You should talk to people in groups of three or five. You've almost sent two small teams," Camel Bro joked.
He knew the backgrounds of Xing Baohua's guards; if he sent 15 guards, it would definitely cause a huge uproar.
Xing Baohua chuckled and said, "It's not two teams, it's a special operations team."
To Camel Bro, what he said sounded like a joke.
Xing Baohua planned to arrange a meeting between Zhao Shanhai and Jin Xin when he went to Ryukyu, since the ports in West Africa and the iron ore mines in Zambais were core businesses that needed to be pursued.
After years of experience, Zhao Shanhai has become quite shrewd and cunning.
The person arrived the next afternoon, and Xing Baohua didn't care whether Jin Xin had time or not, so he called her to ask her out.
This person seems to have a lot of free time; they came out with just one phone call, dressed in a slightly fashionable and avant-garde style.
I don't know where they bought the clothes; they use very little material but emphasize a refined look.
Old Zhao, who had come along, seemed a little uncomfortable. It was clear that the other party wasn't there to discuss business, but rather to arrange a date.
Jin Xin was also a little surprised to see Zhao Shanhai. Xing Baohua hadn't mentioned on the phone that there was another third wheel!
At this moment, Zhao Shanhai's head became even shinier.
After introductions, Xing Baohua said to Jin Xin, "I'll be going on a long trip soon. As for the cooperation, Zhao Shanhai, Old Zhao, will be in charge. Whether it's the Western seaports or the South American iron ore mines, you two can discuss it."
Jin Xin said to Xing Baohua, "Is it because you think the shares are too small? Such a big project, you're not interested at all?"
“That’s just small change, you know? Old Zhao once managed a project worth tens of billions of dollars for me,” Xing Baohua said, pointing at Zhao Shanhai.
Zhao Shanhai replied modestly, "I don't deserve such praise; it's Mr. Xing's trust in me."
