Chapter 761 Playing on the computer? That's really expensive!



At a secret base in California, a group of former big shots received the latest computers.

Although they lost the last game inexplicably, they still carefully checked their computers, found nothing wrong, and started writing their own defense software, since they could never trust other people's software.

This time, the target wasn't just Huahong and Haina websites; their anger was directed at Asia, and virtually every website with even a moderate level of internet access was affected by their electronic virus. This resulted in the paralysis of thousands of websites. The hardest hit area was Hong Kong, before it spread to mainland China. However, due to the less developed internet infrastructure in mainland China, only a few universities and research institutions were affected.

This is no longer a point-to-point confrontation.

This is going to start a cyber war!

Subsequently, Huahong Technology was the first to collect virus samples, analyze the virus kernel, and develop a targeted removal tool.

Uploaded to Shield Security in the shortest possible time for upgrade.

Shield Security has issued a global notice, urging its users to upgrade to the latest defense system.

When it comes to viruses, Xing Baohua is an expert!

Didn't the previous three incense sticks cause you enough trouble? Now you want to drag the entire internet into battle. Look at you, so capable!

In the past few days, Xing Baohua has been developing a virus, upgrading the Three Incenses virus and adding a Trojan mutant Trojan horse and a Trojan downloader. This virus combines the characteristics of a worm virus, a Trojan virus, and a malicious downloader.

Whether it can be cracked or not, Xing Baohua didn't know, but it was the most powerful weapon in the virus world at present.

Viruses are easy to create, taking only a day or two, but we can't just kill them and not bury them! That's why Xing Baohua restricted the IP addresses to North America.

It may temporarily break out in one area, but it's hard to say whether the virus will mutate and break through the area later.

When faced with such a concentrated outbreak of electronic viruses, large companies will not sit idly by; they will conduct research and find ways to eliminate the virus.

Especially with the Shield Security team headed by Uncle Joe, if they could develop a special weapon, it would definitely make Shield famous and bring in a lot of money.

Xing Baohua handed the virus sample to Xiao Tianna, a notebook specifically designed to contain this virus.

After studying it for a while, Xiao Tianna gave Xing Baohua a thumbs up and said, "I didn't expect you to have this kind of skill. If you weren't a good person, you would be a disaster for the world. The kind that's wanted globally."

"Can it talk? I'm afraid if I post it, it will affect our surroundings."

Didn't you set up an IP zone?

"The first and second generation versions might work, but after that, things will change. Do you think those people are stupid?"

Xiao Tian nodded and said, "That's true. I'll study it first and see if I can find any flaws."

"You can just look for patterns. Even if you figure it out, it's only for this generation. It will be useless after four or five generations. They might change the core and turn the tables on us."

"Then let's take our time to study it. Now that you mention it, I'm not in a hurry anymore. I plan to place it on the root server so that none of them can escape."

Xing Baohua gave Xiao Tian a thumbs-up, saying, "You're ruthless!"

As usual, Xing Baohua intended to spread the word via email and let it gradually gain traction.

Who knew Xiao Tian wanted to paralyze the entire European and American internet in one fell swoop? It's not that it's impossible, but disabling root servers is no easy feat!

This guy beat a bunch of big shots, he's getting a little cocky!

Root servers are like mountain peaks that are easy to defend but difficult to attack. No matter how difficult it is, we have to try. Besides, our strength is in conquering mountains. We have to take down even the toughest bones. This is our tradition.

Xiao Tian and his team were preparing to attack the root server, and they also needed to make contingency plans, since that thing had very high defense, just like fighting a BOSS.

The computer virus that has swept across Asia continues to spread. It has been submitted to Shield Security's dedicated removal tool for three days, but the virus is still there, and the upgraded version has not been updated much.

This puzzled Xing Baohua, who then launched an investigation, using the Huahong Telecom backend to check the upgrade traffic of Shendun Security to determine the installation volume.

It is estimated that only about 400 households in Hong Kong have installed the device, while the rest remain indifferent.

After receiving the results, Xing Baohua called Grandpa Qiao: "Qiao, what do you think about the worm virus in Asia?"

Grandpa Qiao probably expected Xing Baohua to call him, and said unhurriedly, "Xing, the company is adjusting its strategy. The special attack in Asia may be delayed."

What are you waiting for?

"Wait for users to buy."

"Is this your strategy? Huahong Technology didn't charge you a single penny for the specialized kill device they provided." Xing Baohua's tone was somewhat stern.

“I will pay you for the patent. Xing, this is a business transaction…”

"What kind of commercial activity is this? That stuff is free. Now slow down and get it running!" Xing Baohua angrily ordered over the phone.

Grandpa Qiao also had a fiery temper. Seeing Xing Baohua venting his anger on him, he got angry too and said, "I'm doing this all for the company's benefit."

Xing Baohua didn't want to waste any more time with him and hung up the phone directly. Even a fool could tell that Uncle Qiao was all about putting profit first.

Charging for a dedicated removal tool will damage the Shield brand. Doesn't Steve Jobs know this? If you sell a dedicated removal tool, how many viruses will exist in the future? People buy your Shield security and antivirus software, and then you charge a separate fee for it. Is that reasonable?

The only ones being lost are users. We can grit our teeth and bear this charge, but what about next time?

Xing Baohua instructed Huahong Technology to upload the proprietary anti-virus software to various forums, allowing users with Shendun security systems to manually upgrade and providing installation tutorials.

These days, there aren't many computer novices; most people are quite skilled with their hands.
