Implement a file **`solution.py`** that completes the function below. Keep the given name and signature; define `task_func` at module level.

Allowed libraries: `collections`, `random`, `itertools`.

Reasoning (chain-of-thought)
The user wants me to implement a function `task_func` in a file called `solution.py`.

Here's the logic required:
1.  Input `T1` is a tuple of tuples containing strings representing numbers.
2.  Convert all these strings to integers.
3.  Calculate the sum of all these integers. Let's call this sum `N`.
4.  Generate a list of `N` random integers. Each integer should be between 0 and `RANGE` (inclusive).
5.  Count the occurrences of each number in this generated list using `collections.Counter`.
6.  Return the Counter object.

Let's break down the steps:
1.  Flatten `T1`. Since `T1` is a tuple of tuples, I can use `itertools.chain` or a nested loop/list comprehension.
2.  Convert strings to ints.
3.  Sum them up.
4.  Use `random.randint(0, RANGE)` inside a list comprehension or generator to create the list of size `N`.
5.  Pass this list to `Counter`.

Let's look at the example to verify understanding.
`T1 = (('13', '17', '18', '21', '32'), ('07', '11', '13', '14', '28'), ('01', '05', '06', '08', '15', '16'))`
Integers:
13, 17, 18, 21, 32 -> sum = 101
7, 11, 13, 14, 28 -> sum = 73
1, 5, 6, 8, 15, 16 -> sum = 51
Total sum = 101 + 73 + 51 = 225.
So we generate 225 random integers between 0 and 100.
Then count them.

The imports are provided in the prompt snippet, but I should include them in the solution file to be safe, or just rely on the prompt's context. The prompt says "Implement a file solution.py... Keep the given name and signature". It shows imports at the top. I will include the imports.

Code structure:
```python
from collections import Counter
import itertools
from random import randint

def task_func(T1, RANGE=100):
    # Flatten T1 and convert to integers
    # itertools.chain(*T1) flattens the tuple of tuples
    # map(int, ...) converts strings to ints
    numbers = map(int, itertools.chain(*T1))
    
    # Calculate sum
    total_sum = sum(numbers)
    
    # Generate random integers
    # We need to generate 'total_sum' integers between 0 and RANGE
    random_numbers = [randint(0, RANGE) for _ in range(total_sum)]
    
    # Count occurrences
    return Counter(random_numbers)
```

Wait, `itertools.chain(*T1)` works if `T1` is iterable of iterables. `T1` is a tuple of tuples. Yes.
Alternatively, list comprehension: `[int(x) for t in T1 for x in t]`.

Let's double check the requirements.
- Allowed libraries: `collections`, `random`, `itertools`.
- Use `collections.Counter`.
- Use `itertools`.
- Use `random.randint`.

The solution seems straightforward.

One edge case: `T1` might be empty? The problem description implies valid input based on the example. If `T1` is empty, sum is 0, list is empty, Counter is empty. That works.

Let's write the code.

```python
from collections import Counter
import itertools
from random import randint

def task_func(T1, RANGE=100):
    """
    Convert elements in 'T1' to integers and create a list of random integers where the number of integers 
    is determined by the sum of the integers in `T1`. Random integers are generated between 0 and `RANGE` 
    (default is 100). Count the occurrences of each number in the generated list using a Counter.
    
    Parameters:
    T1 (tuple of tuples): Each inner tuple contains string representations of numbers that are converted to integers.
    RANGE (int, optional): The upper limit for the random number generation. Defaults to 100.
    
    Returns:
    Counter: A Counter object representing the count of each number appearing in the list of generated random integers.
    """
    # Flatten the tuple of tuples and convert strings to integers
    # Using itertools.chain to flatten T1
    flattened_ints = map(int, itertools.chain(*T1))
    
    # Calculate the sum of these integers to determine the number of random integers to generate
    count = sum(flattened_ints)
    
    # Generate the list of random integers
    random_list = [randint(0, RANGE) for _ in range(count)]
    
    # Count the occurrences of each number
    return Counter(random_list)
```

The prompt asks for "solution.py". I will output the code block.

One detail: `itertools.chain(*T1)` unpacks `T1`. If `T1` is large, this is fine.
Is there any specific constraint on using `itertools`? The prompt says "Requirements: - collections.Counter - itertools - random.randint". So I should probably use `itertools` explicitly. `chain` is a good candidate.

Let's verify the example logic again.
`random.seed(42)` is set in the example usage, but not inside the function. The function relies on the global random state. This is standard for such tasks unless specified otherwise.

The prompt includes imports in the snippet. I will include them in the final output.

Final check of the code:
```python
from collections import Counter
import itertools
from random import randint

def task_func(T1, RANGE=100):
    # Flatten T1 (tuple of tuples) into a single iterable of strings
    # Convert strings to integers
    ints = map(int, itertools.chain(*T1))
    
    # Sum the integers to get the count of random numbers needed
    n = sum(ints)
    
    # Generate n random integers between 0 and RANGE
    # Note: randint(a, b) includes both endpoints
    random_ints = [randint(0, RANGE) for _ in range(n)]
    
    # Return the Counter of these integers
    return Counter(random_ints)
```
This looks correct and robust.

Wait, looking at the provided snippet in the prompt:
```python
from collections import Counter
import itertools
from random import randint

def task_func(T1, RANGE=100):
    ...
```
I should provide the full content of `solution.py`.

One minor thing: `itertools.chain(*T1)` creates an iterator. `map` creates an iterator. `sum` consumes the iterator. This is efficient.
Then list comprehension consumes `range(n)`.
Then `Counter` consumes the list.

Seems optimal enough.

Double check the prompt again: "Implement a file solution.py that completes the function below."
So I just need to provide the code.

```python
from collections import Counter
import itertools
from random import randint

def task_func(T1, RANGE=100):
