In the lounge.
The atmosphere among the competing teams from various countries suddenly became strangely harmonious because of Fang Ziyang's performance.
The lethality of White Lotus cannot be underestimated, especially when it is integrated with the essence of Little Green Tea. Fang Ziyang perfectly demonstrated to everyone what it means to "Don't mess with me, or I'll cry for you to see"!
Nowadays, we are not afraid of the hard ones, but the soft ones. The enemy starts crying before you even make a move. What do you do in public?
We are in front of the whole world now, we can't just lose our temper.
Fang Ziyang is thick-skinned, and they are worried about losing face.
For a moment, the looks that the contestants from various countries gave Fang Ziyang were extremely complicated: Putting aside other things, the fact that he dared to cry without losing his image in front of the whole world on a live broadcast was courage worthy of praise!
The surrounding sight is burning.
However, the Chinese team members remained calm as if nothing had happened.
Fang Ziyang acted as if he was not the one crying just now. He took out a mint candy with a smile on his face, threw it into his mouth, tilted his head and started eating with a smile.
The interview just now was naturally broadcast live on the Internet in various countries.
This time, netizens from all over the world surprisingly had the same reaction, hahaha.
"Haha, is this also a member of the Chinese team? He looks so young, is he an adult? His words are so funny, he must be doing that on purpose, haha. The reporters who asked the questions were all confused."
"It must be intentional. The reporter probably saw that he was young and wanted to set a trap for him. After all, the other Chinese contestants' answers were too conservative and there was no news breaking. As a result, they didn't accept the challenge at all."
“Could this be the legendary white lotus?”
"I can also smell the strong green tea flavor, haha, what a great image..."
"But what exactly did he mean by that sentence just now? It seems to be ancient Chinese, and the simultaneous translator couldn't translate it for a while."
"Although I do think that China cannot compare to several of our technologically advanced countries, the intentions of these media reporters to target us are too obvious. It feels a bit embarrassing. They are not gentlemanly at all..."
"Many reports in the domestic media are not quite true. My friends who don't use the Internet still think that China is a country where people shave their heads, wear pigtails, live in dirty mud houses. But in fact, when I traveled to China, I saw that there were high-rise buildings everywhere."
"Blind arrogance will only blind us. I think through this competition, we may have an intuitive and correct understanding of countries around the world, rather than being blindly concealed and controlled by the media."
Various comments are floating around in the live broadcast rooms of various countries, but the mood is generally good.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Fang Ziyang's performance just now was deliberately intended to deal with those reporters who wanted to set a trap for him. No one thought it was a big deal. In fact, many countries like to use their own language in such interviews, as it represents status and honor.
The eyes of the masses are sharp, and there are many rational people among them.
However, this discussion did not last long, because the opening ceremony was soon over, and the organizers began to give speeches and announce the rules of the competition.
The first round of the science and technology competition is called "Battle of Attack and Defense". The content can be simply summarized as information and security, or more bluntly described as a hacker war.
How can we dare to show off scientific research results if even the safety cannot be guaranteed?
The security protection of scientific research results is the top priority of technology and must be taken into consideration.
Of course, the name "hacker" is not actually a good word and cannot be used openly. Although the competition is about hacking skills, the name of the competition obviously needs to be changed.
The entire "Attack and Defense" game is divided into two games.
The first game is single vs single, and the second game is team vs team.
Both games adopted a free-for-all mode, with a total of nearly two hundred countries participating, and only the top 10 advanced in the end... So if you want to win, you will never be able to break through without absolute strength.
In this situation, even if someone wants to do something, it will be very troublesome.
Of course, if some people reach an agreement during the game and directly unite to target someone, this conspiracy cannot be guaranteed. After all, everything can be absolutely fair.
"…These are the rules for the first match of the first round. Now please ask the home team members of each country to bring your computers and enter the venue according to your numbers."
Accompanied by the host's announcement.
Contestants from various countries quickly calmed themselves down, holding their computers, and entered the corresponding areas.
In order to be fair and test everyone's strength to the greatest extent, the melee area is also divided into strong and weak, starting from the strongest and decreasing in sequence. The players in field 1 are all the team leaders, the players in field 2 are naturally the second strongest players in the team, and the players in field 3 are ranked third...
On the Chinese team's side, Fang Ziyang's ranking was reported as second place, so he was naturally assigned to the No. 2 melee area.
Before, when everyone saw Fang Ziyang, they actually didn't take him too seriously. They just thought he had some background and was specially brought in to gild his reputation, and his ability was probably at the bottom of the list.
After all, Fang Ziyang looks young, and from the Chinese perspective, he only looks about seventeen or eighteen years old.
But in the eyes of Asians who are face-blind and foreigners of the same age who are relatively mature, he looks even younger. Even if such a young boy is very capable, how capable can he be? Talent is certainly a blessing, but experience is also very important for technical personnel.
But when everyone saw him actually walked into Field No. 2, they became nervous.
At this moment, no one would think that Fang Ziyang was just here to gild his reputation, because no country would joke in such an occasion.
This teenager who looks like he has just reached adulthood actually entered Field No. 2? He was actually ranked second in the strength of their participating team? Is it that the Chinese team is lacking in talent, or is it that they are the worst?
Even netizens in China were equally shocked.
"Although I have accepted Fang Ziyang's participation in the competition, is he really the second strongest person on the team? Why do I feel like I'm dreaming?"
"You are not alone. I am also in a trance..."
"In fact, nothing is impossible. Have you forgotten that Fang Ziyang and Tang Xun are brothers? When Tang Xun became famous, he was only in his teens. Thank you."
"Like brother, like brother. It is said that the Lu family has inherited very good talents, and several generations have been scientific researchers. So it doesn't seem unusual that Fang Ziyang is as talented as his brother."
"That's not necessarily true. A dragon gives birth to nine sons, and each of them is different. But Lu Yan is...tsk tsk."
"Well, if the friend above hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that after Fang Ziyang's barbecued pork father and barbecued pork elder brother, there is also a barbecued pork uncle. Fang Ziyang is going against the barbecued pork..."
"Don't mention these people upstairs, don't insult my favorite barbecued pork buns, thank you!"
“…”
The discussion gradually strayed off topic.
As Fang Ziyang and Tang Xun become more and more outstanding, Fang Yandong and others are often dragged out to be scolded. Sometimes netizens have a very good memory and are very fond of gossip about celebrities and wealthy families. When they are in a bad mood, they just curse scumbags and are very happy.
Lively discussion in the live broadcast room.
The people in competition field No. 2 were also shocked when they saw Fang Ziyang, and they all had an expression that said, "Little brother, have you come to the wrong place?"
Abbas is from Country B and his seat is right next to Fang Ziyang.
The relationship between Country B and Country China has always been very good, and the two countries are even known as iron brothers in private, so compared to contestants from Country A and Country G, he is more friendly towards Fang Ziyang.
Seeing Fang Ziyang's young face, Abbas couldn't help but kindly remind him,
"Little brother, you are so young, are you strong enough to rank second in your team?"
The subtext is: Little brother, did you take the wrong license plate? Check it out now!
Fang Ziyang is not a man as old as he looks, so he naturally heard Abbas's subtle reminder, so he responded with a friendly smile.
"Of course, my brother is Tang Xun, the Tang Xun who is known as one of the most outstanding geniuses in this world. Have you heard of him?"
Fang Ziyang smiled, "I'm not worse than my brother at all. Do you have the confidence to enter the top 10? If you are worried, I can take you."
"Your brother is Tang Xun?!"
Abbas didn't take his subsequent words seriously, thinking he was joking, and all his attention was on Tang Xun's name.
We are all people working in the technical field, so who doesn’t know the name Tang Xun?
People outside only know that Tang Xun is very powerful, but they have no idea what Tang Xun's achievements and brain represent. When Tang Xun graduated from HF, several technologically advanced countries came to poach him, and even the president of HF College came out to help persuade him and promised him countless benefits, which shows how important Tang Xun is.
But in the end, Tang Xun rejected all invitations and chose to return to China for development, which made countless famous research institutes sigh with regret.
Everyone originally thought that Tang Xun's development would be restricted by China's technological level and environment, but no one expected that a few years later, Tang Xun and the Chinese government would actually develop a chip ID card. The technology that was ahead of its time shocked the entire scientific research community, and all countries felt dangerous.
Abbas didn't know Fang Ziyang's specific reputation in the country. Just hearing that he was Tang Xun's younger brother was enough to shock him.
When the other contestants heard this, they all perked up and looked at Fang Ziyang with more seriousness instead of the casual look before.
No one who can sit here is a fool. After all, people like Jin Yu who have negative emotional intelligence are rare.
Fang Ziyang had a very good impression of Abbas.
Although he didn't need friends during the game, he didn't mind helping Abbas. He knew that some people would definitely join forces to attack him later. It would be easier for him if he had Abbas' help.
Ignoring the looks from all around, Fang Ziyang smiled sweetly at Abbas.
"Brother, my name is Fang Ziyang. What's your name? Which country are you from? How about we team up later?"
The proposal was very abrupt. After all, the strength of both parties was unclear, and his appearance looked very unreliable.
And based on the previous bet, the players from Country M will definitely join forces to attack him in today's game, so it is really an unwise choice to join forces with him.
But Abbas doesn't care.
Abbas' team did not think about advancing this time. They came here with the mentality of just participating, because technology is not something you can win the game just by working hard. If you want to get a ranking, you really need absolute strength.
In fact, everyone knows which countries will advance to the top 10 in this competition.
So even if Fang Ziyang is not capable enough, Abbas thinks it doesn't matter, because their team is here to experience it anyway.
"My name is Abbas, I'm from Country B, good luck buddy."
Abbas smiled and raised his fist towards Fang Ziyang to show his agreement and friendship.
"come on!"
Fang Ziyang smiled.
Two people who just met reached a preliminary cooperative relationship.
The surrounding players couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw this.
Just now I thought Fang Ziyang was Tang Xun's younger brother and should be quite capable, but he actually cooperated with Abbas. It seems that he is just slacking off.
Abbas and the others also know each other, but their level is just average, and their cooperation is completely a drag. If Fang Ziyang cooperates with the other party, he will have no chance of winning unless his ability is really extraordinary.
Thinking of this, the players in Field 2 became more confident.
Even if I can't advance, with one less competitor, the ranking will be better, and it won't be too embarrassing to return home, right?
These exchanges seem long, but they are very short.
Ten minutes later, all regional contestants entered the venue and the host announced the start of the competition.
"You have 30 minutes to build your own firewall, and the attack will begin in 30 minutes. Dear contestants, come on, with the expectations of your countrymen and the honor of your motherland!"
Accompanied by the host's voice.
The competition officially begins.
The contestants who were just communicating casually got into the state in a second. They seemed to turn into a machine, their fingers tapping on the keyboard quickly, forming one afterimage after another.
Although most of the audience and people in the live broadcast room don’t know much about these techniques, it doesn’t stop everyone from appreciating the players’ astonishing hand speed.
In order to make the viewing experience not boring due to lack of technical knowledge, each player is equipped with a commentator to increase the fun of the game.
Of course, in order to keep the technology confidential, these commentators can only get the name of the firewall built by the player, and then explain to the audience how amazing the firewall is. The core content cannot be seen.
Because of the previous bet.
Therefore, players from Country M and Country China received more attention in this game, and they were given the most live broadcast shots.
The players from Country M did have the capital to be arrogant. When the commentators from all regions learned the name of the firewall they were going to build, they were all shocked, and then they excitedly howled at the camera.
"Oh, my God, do you know the name of the firewall built by the M country player next to me? KIO Ultimate Protection! Most of the audience in front of the camera may not have a direct understanding of this, so I will describe it in one sentence. This firewall is just like its name, Ultimate Protection. It is currently the world's number one fire protection system..."
"Even if it's a simplified version made by one person, it's still very difficult to break it... and it also has anti-tracking capabilities. Once you're trapped by it, there's no way you can leave!"
The commentator Baba said a lot.
Anyway, to sum up the main idea, it is: this is amazing! This is really amazing! This is definitely the most awesome thing!
Listening to the commentator's excited howls, even people who don't understand these technologies can get a general idea of how awesome they are.
After introducing the players from Country M, the camera will naturally switch to the players from Country China. After all, the two parties have a bet, so they naturally need to do a comparison shot.
Then.
Then the commentators who had just been full of excitement suddenly fell silent.
because……
They don’t understand…
I haven't heard of the name of Firewall...
In the live broadcast, the commentators in each area were suddenly stuck.
Audience: This year’s commentators seem to be a bit not very good.
