It took me two hours to download the scanning software.

I carefully transferred it to a computer that wasn't connected to the internet, opened the software's casing, and transferred the prank virus I had written into it.

After being packaged, it was transferred to the computer with internet access.

Then, with great effort, we had to move the broiler chickens over one by one.

Actually, there was a very simple way, but Xing Baohua didn't use it because he was afraid of leaving traces in the forum's backend logs.

There are advantages to the cumbersome method; it allows you to clean up traces one by one.

After two days, we finally moved to the last botnet, hacked into the forum server, and changed the scanning software from the backend.

Prank software is easy for experts to handle, but it's a nightmare for beginners.

They probably felt like the sky was falling and had no idea how to handle it.

Simply type "Security Management Master software" in the DOS command prompt to remove it.

In a true sense, the word chain window mini-program written by Xing Baohua is mainly a prank. Although it is a virus, it is harmless.

It will not steal any data, nor will it damage system software or even hardware.

After finishing all this, Xing Baohua told himself that he would not do it again next time.

I'm a good person.

Promoting the progress of cybersecurity in the United States is simply doing good deeds anonymously.

After messing around with the internet in America, Xing Baohua removed the hard drives and memory from all the computers in the room, except for the one that could connect to the internet himself.

It was placed in a small bag.

Inform the people outside to move the computer out, replace the hardware, and continue using it as an office machine.

At this moment, Xing Baohua received a call from Grandpa Qiao, who said he wanted to convene a meeting of the shareholders.

To put it simply, the new cybersecurity company needs a new office environment, and the location will still be in Silicon Valley.

There's a large pool of talent here, making recruitment easier. Another advantage is the abundance of tax breaks and incentives available for the electronics and technology industry in the area.

So, at the old man's urging, Xing Baohua flew to Silicon Valley.

The shareholders will gather here for a small meeting to discuss the next steps in promotion and other business operations.

Sheraton Silicon Valley Hotel

This is where the shareholders are currently staying, eating, and holding meetings.

Xing Baohua arrived early and met with Grandpa Qiao first.

Xing Baohua was a little nervous when he first met this madman.

This great master has finally seen one alive.

My first impression of him was that he was quite nice; Grandpa Qiao didn't bite anyone randomly.

He spoke with a somewhat refined air, but Xing Baohua kept thinking to himself, "I can't be fooled by his appearance. When this guy gets angry, he's worse than a dog."

Grandpa Qiao talked to Xing Baohua about the office environment, suggesting that in order to get the employees into work mode as soon as possible, it would be better to buy an existing office space.

Xing Baohua nodded, agreeing with the assessment. There's not much to research on this; anyway, with the stock market still in a crash, there are plenty of companies selling apartments and office spaces.

Afterwards, the two discussed security software and enterprise-level security. Mr. Qiao had his own ideas; he felt that a tiered system should be developed based on the enterprise's level.

Different companies have different pricing standards, and high-level companies must have insurance to receive services. Hacking is unavoidable; if it fails to prevent it and a company suffers losses, how does the cybersecurity company compensate them? Is it simply a refund of the security fees as previously mentioned?

The companies that suffered losses will definitely be dissatisfied, and a lawsuit is inevitable.

Moreover, the chances of losing this are very high, so companies must buy insurance to transfer the losses to the insurance company.

Xing Baohua gave a mental thumbs up. He was truly a legendary figure; his ideas were all excellent. This was America, after all, and all sorts of bizarre insurance policies existed here. Back in China, you might not be able to find a single policy you'd dare to buy, and even if you did, you might not receive any compensation.

The initial meeting with Uncle Qiao went very well. Xing Baohua waited all day before the shareholders finally arrived.

Everyone is busy, so it's really not easy for us to get together.

When these people get together, it looks like a board meeting, but they're just missing some melon seeds; otherwise, it would be more like a tea party.

Most of the company's important matters have been approved, and so many people have great confidence in Mr. Qiao's leadership.

Besides, we're all in the same circle, and we usually get along quite well.

Despite being competitors with Microsoft, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates had a good personal relationship, and it's said that Jobs even borrowed money from Gates.

As for the two companies constantly suing each other, and even becoming enemies, that's a matter at the company level.

For the sake of the company's development, the two of them stopped contacting each other much.

At the meeting, Xing Baohua said to Uncle Qiao and Gates, "Gentlemen, I've noticed a small problem?"

This guy first tried to steer their attention with a topic, and Gates chuckled and asked, "What's the question?"

"Haven't you noticed that something's missing from the internet?" Xing Baohua asked, spreading his hands.

At this moment, Grandpa Qiao also asked with interest, "What exactly is it?"

"Browser!" Xing Baohua blurted out.

Afterwards, Mr. Joe and Gates fell into deep thought.

They understood what Xing Baohua meant. Grandpa Qiao said, "You want to simplify it to a window mode, so that you can enter the page you want by clicking?"

Xing Baohua nodded. Actually, at this time, to browse the web or even enter a forum, you need to enter the address in DOS command mode.

It's very complicated.

Gates said, "Isn't this redundant? It's still just entering the address, isn't it?"

Xing Baohua shook his head and said, "Make a comprehensive website, set up automatic connection, so that as long as the customer sees this icon, they can enter with a simple click of the mouse. This is a shortcut, or you can let the user set it directly."
