Chapter 729: Cutting Leeks: Making the Whole World Pay Protection Fees
"Xiao Su, sit down..."
The old man saw Su Yang coming in with a friendly smile on his face. Su Yang is the pride of China. Over the years, Su Yang has brought Chinese culture to the world, not only bringing honor to China, but also helping China make a lot of money.
Such a person is the pride of the country. And Su Yang is also one of the best entrepreneurs in China. If Qingyao Group were to go public now, it would definitely have a market value of hundreds of billions, not to mention more.
Su Yang nodded and sat respectfully opposite the old man, like a primary school student meeting his parents.
This is a big shot in the news. Even the most powerful entrepreneurs have to be respectful when meeting him.
"Xiao Su, do you know about the network virus called Armed Bear?"
The old man asked curiously. Elder Song knew Su Yang's identity best. Within China's mysterious cybersecurity forces, Su Yang held the highest position. Su Yang's network technology was incredible. He had previously participated in China's cybersecurity efforts, and his involvement had significantly boosted the country's cybersecurity capabilities.
"Well, this virus was created by me."
Su Yang said in a low voice that he didn't dare to hide this from the old man.
Hearing this, Mr. Song was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and looked at Su Yang with curiosity.
"Mr. Song, this virus uses an AI program. Before the release of a special killer, it cannot be completely eliminated unless the global network is formatted. The most terrifying thing about this virus is not its randomness, but its self-learning nature. Its internal program will change over time, making it very difficult to eliminate it. I can't say anything else, but at least for the next six months, no one else will be able to find a way to crack it."
Su Yang said directly.
“What about half a year later?”
Mr. Song asked curiously.
"It depends on luck!"
Su Yang's words made Old Song laugh heartily.
"Tell me about your plans."
Old Song asked directly, Su Yang created such a virus and put the blame on the Russians, which was definitely not because he was idle and looking for trouble.
"The original intention was to promote the Xingchen brand. But now it seems we can take this opportunity to promote our domestic operating system as well. If we want, we can use the special killer to reap profits worldwide. Our special killer service will be charged on an annual basis. We can charge him three to five hundred dollars a year. With so many devices around the world..."
Having said that, Su Yang stopped and Old Song also laughed.
"Hahaha, three to five hundred dollars is a bit too much."
Old Song said with a smile, and Su Yang was stunned.
"But sometimes it doesn't matter if you're cruel. Those people are even more cruel..."
This made Su Yang laugh. "Well done, Mr. Song," he said. "This opportunity must not be missed." With so many smart devices around the world, one device can activate a special kill.
By then, one device will cost $500. How many smart devices can be sold worldwide? There are more than 10 billion smart devices in the world.
Thinking of this number, Su Yang swallowed his saliva. He didn't dare to take the money. It was too hot to handle.
"How come you're scared too?"
Looking at Su Yang's expression, Old Song laughed. Su Yang, this brat, was fearless, but now he was also afraid of something.
"Mr. Song, this amount of money is too much. I dare not take it, and I can't afford it."
Su Yang spoke the truth, which made Old Song laugh.
"Fortunately, you're not too crazy. Just complete the task of killing the enemy and hand it over to the person in charge. The state will handle the rest."
Mr. Song didn't say much. Su Yang nodded and felt relieved.
Good thing, now it has nothing to do with me. Actually, this matter is not low-key, it is clearly extortion.
But Europe and the United States often do this, and now it is China's turn to take advantage of them openly.
In the underground base, Su Yang wrote the killing software on the spot.
After handing over the special killing software, Su Yang was escorted out of the underground base. As for what to do next, Su Yang didn't need to worry about it.
But Su Yang knew that he would definitely get the benefits he deserved.
The Armed Bear virus has broken out globally, and major cybersecurity companies worldwide have become busy. Everyone knows that whoever cracks this virus first will gain both fame and fortune.
People from all over the world are suffering terribly from this virus. Whether they can use their mobile phones depends entirely on the mood of the virus.
Mobile phones, computers, tablets, smart watches, smart cars, this virus does not target website software, only the device. All website software can be used normally, so there is no panic, just some inconvenience in life.
If you don’t drive a smart car and rarely use your phone, it won’t really affect your life.
But if you are usually addicted to your mobile phone, then you are doomed. This armed bear that pops up can make you collapse.
In addition to affecting life, many productions have also been delayed.
Because many devices are smart, armed Russians can easily take over any smart device. Sometimes, when a device is operating, the system is suddenly taken over by an armed Russian. This is equivalent to a system freeze, and the device stops working.
For a time, many factories almost collapsed, and everyone cursed the virus for causing great harm to people.
Suddenly, a group of national-level network technicians moved into Huawei Group's research institute.
They started to get busy after they moved in. In just one day, they and Hongmeng's technical staff completed the task.
Based on the virus theory provided by Su Yang, they directly upgraded the Hongmeng system. The upgraded Hongmeng system cleverly used its own microkernel settings to directly isolate the virus.
When a virus enters the system, the microkernel system will directly isolate the virus. However, this isolation is not a complete kill. The virus is still there, but it is in the isolated area and cannot break out.
After testing the new system, all Huawei engineers were excited. This was a huge opportunity. The upgraded Hongmeng system could isolate viruses, so smart devices using Hongmeng would no longer be affected by the armed Russian bear.
This is huge good news for the Hongmeng system.
Huawei's chips are now under tremendous pressure, so Huawei's focus has shifted to the software level.
Hongmeng OS is Huawei's flagship product. This OS can be used not only on mobile phones, tablets, and watches, but also on other smart devices.
When the Hongmeng system is promoted, everything will be connected. Now, the outbreak of the armed bear has given them a huge opportunity.
Hardware can make money, and software can make money too. Even if the system is free, as long as the volume is large, you can still make money in other places.
As night fell, Huawei released a bombshell news, which immediately set the Internet on fire.
