Zhou Hongwei moved quickly and rushed to the coffee shop Chen Mo mentioned at around five o'clock that afternoon. After receiving the call, Chen Mo took his computer and information and immediately went to the coffee shop.

His rental house is not far from the coffee shop, and it only takes five minutes to walk there.

After entering the coffee shop, Chen Mo looked around. There were not many people in the coffee shop, only a few people. Chen Mo recognized Zhou Hongwei and others sitting in the corner at a glance.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou." Chen Mo walked over, smiled and extended his right hand.

Seeing Chen Mo, Zhou Hongwei had surprise in his eyes. The voice was very familiar. It was Chen Mo who was talking to him, but he was a little too young.

"Hello, Mr. Chen."

After exchanging pleasantries with Chen Mo, Zhou Hongwei sat back down with him.

"Mr. Chen, I want to see the program you mentioned in person." Zhou Hongwei went directly to the topic, even a little impatient.

"Okay, but I don't have a virus-infected computer." Chen Mo said.

"We are ready."

Zhou Hongwei nodded to the assistant next to him, who took out two computers from his backpack and placed them on the table.

Both computers had images of them being locked by iron doors.

Chen Mo was unambiguous, took out the USB flash drive, inserted it into the computer and tapped it a few times. Two minutes later, after reading the article, the computer screen changed and immediately returned to the familiar Windows desktop.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Hongwei's face lit up with joy.

it is true.

Computers infected with viruses are all prepared by themselves and cannot be faked. Holding back the anxiety in his heart, Zhou Hongwei continued to watch him check the second computer.

Seeing that the second computer also returned to normal, Zhou Hongwei breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back on his chair.

This scene means that the 'Eternal Heart' sweeping the world has been cracked, and it was by the young man in front of him who was too young.

"Mr. Chen is so young, is he still studying? A student of Binhai University?" Zhou Hongwei asked.

"Isn't this very important?" Chen Mo smiled softly.

"It's really not important." Zhou Hongwei said with a smile: "This program was independently developed by Mr. Chen, right? He is really young and promising. Are you interested in working in our company?"

"I don't have any plans for the moment." Chen Mo said, neither arrogant nor humble, "Let's get into the topic."

Zhou Hongwei looked at Chen Mo carefully. This young man's demeanor and conversation were much better than the young people he had seen. He was definitely a rare talent.

"Let's get to the point. Is Mr. Chen planning to sell the program? How much will it cost?"

"Not much, eighty million."

hiss…

As soon as Chen Mo's price came out, everyone who heard it took a breath and looked at him in surprise.

"Mr. Chen, is this price a little high?" Zhou Hongwei said with a smile.

"If it's too high, forget it." Chen Mo shrugged and put the USB flash drive back into his backpack: "I'll contact Penguin people later, maybe they will be interested."

"Mr. Chen, don't worry yet." Zhou Hongwei immediately stopped Chen Mo: "Your price is indeed a bit high. If you contact Penguin, they will not give you this price."

"How will you know if you don't try?" Chen Mo said: "The Eternal Heart has indirectly caused tens of billions of dollars in losses around the world."

"Let's do this. The fixed price is 10 million. The technology will be transferred to me and the contract will be signed now." Zhou Hongwei said.

"Forget it." Chen Mo said: "Currently, no anti-virus method has been found in the world. If your company is the first to release software that can detect and kill the 'Eternal Heart', it will gain both fame and fortune. I will already suffer at this price."

"Thirty million, this is the bottom line." Zhou Hongwei said: "The number of infected computers in the world is only close to one million. Our company is not making money."

"Word of mouth and reputation are the key. Mr. Zhou won't be so superficial, right?" Chen Mo said: "If not, then I will contact other companies. This program should increase the market value of Penguin or Qiandu a lot."

Zhou Hongwei didn't expect Chen Mo to be so cunning at such a young age. But this anti-virus program can indeed make their company gain both fame and fortune, especially at this point in the global virus crisis.

If they give up the program to their opponents, their company will lose an opportunity.

"To be honest, our profit from your program may not necessarily be 80 million."

"Seventy million, no more," Chen Mo said.

"Wait, 60 million." Zhou Hongwei said: "We are releasing free programs, so we can't make much profit at all."

"It's free for you. It has nothing to do with me. You can also charge." Chen Mo stood up and prepared to leave.

"Wait, 70 million, deal." Zhou Hongwei said immediately.

"This is the contract and technical information."

Chen Mo sat back on his seat, took out a USB flash drive and two contracts from his computer bag, and placed them in front of Zhou Hongwei.

Seeing what had been prepared, Zhou Hongwei was stunned. This young man seemed to have guessed from the beginning that they would give in.

He asked the lawyer next to him to read the contract carefully. After making sure that there was no problem, he looked at Chen Mo: "I didn't expect such an outstanding young man to come out of the country."

"Best prizes, prizes. This program was created by accident. It's all luck."

"Um?"

Zhou Hongwei didn't expect Chen Mo to say such a thing, leaving him speechless. The virus that has no solution in the world fell into his hands because of luck, but no one would believe it.

"If there's no problem, just sign the contract." Chen Mo said.

"Can."

After signing the contract, Zhou Hongwei also asked someone to transfer money to Chen Mo on the spot.

After seeing that the transfer was successful, Chen Mo laughed. This was his first pot of gold, earned with his own hands.

Even if personal income tax is deducted later, there will still be more than 56 million. Chen Mo was still thinking about how to spend the money.

"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Chen Mo and Zhou Hongwei shook hands: "I have deleted the program data here. Your data is an orphan. Remember to back it up. I'm leaving first."

"Don't want to have a meal?"

"No, I'll contact you later."

After bidding farewell to Zhou Hongwei, Chen Mo left the coffee shop with his book on his back.

"Send the program back to the technical department, call them to notify them, bind the code of the anti-virus program into the guard, and prepare to update the guard."

After Zhou Hongwei gave instructions to his assistant, he looked at the door where Chen Mo left and fell into deep thought.

At seven o'clock that evening, Qihu posted a message on Weibo.

Qihu Company has developed a program to detect and kill the 'Eternal Heart', and is currently undergoing final emergency processing. Once completed, it will be released as soon as possible, free of charge as always.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation in the online world, and Qihu's Weibo also attracted countless likes and recognitions from netizens.

"The history is surprisingly similar. Qihu has found the program software to kill the 'Eternal Heart', and a certain computer manager is still publishing news about playing games."

"A conscientious company, I will change my anti-virus software now."

"This time I support Qihu."

This incident also made headlines in major media.

Everything came without warning.

Things related to the 'Eternal Heart' are currently hot topics. This time, the news about Qihu was quickly discovered by the media and spread throughout the country in a very short period of time.

When the news was released, some TV stations that were broadcasting news also urgently broadcast the latest news. This news was also posted on foreign social networking sites in the shortest possible time.

The entire online world is in a state of excitement.

This 'Eternal Heart' ransomware incident is almost the largest kidnapping incident in the online world. Globally, nearly one million computers are infected with viruses. Mainly concentrated in important fields such as government departments, energy companies, railway companies, banks, hospitals, universities, and trading venues.

It has been almost seven days since the incident. Unless you reinstall the system, you cannot get rid of 'Eternal Heart'. But reinstalling the system means that all the data in the computer will be lost, which is impossible for some people to accept.

The news released by Qihu is undoubtedly a shot in the arm. Those who were prepared to pay the ransom to the hackers stopped and waited for Qihu Company to release an anti-virus program.

The signing step has been entered, feel free to collect. Please collect and recommend.
