Paris France.
It was morning, and Bertrand entered the airport's command center with his briefcase.
"Shana, what news are you watching?" Bertrand arrived at his office and looked at the female colleague who was watching the news next to him.
"You don't know this? The island country was invaded by a virus again. The entire country's computers were infected by an unknown virus and fell into semi-paralysis. This is the live broadcast of the press conference of the island country's prime minister. The island country's government agencies, airports, banks, hospitals, universities, Companies and individuals have all been targeted. We still don’t know which organization did it.”
"Hiss... my little goddess." Bertrand took a breath and looked at the press conference on the computer in shock: "How serious is the loss?"
"It's immeasurable, and it's not yet possible to calculate it."
"If this kind of computer virus enters our country, I'm afraid..."
Didi didi...
As soon as Bertrand sat down, the airport sirens sounded. Everyone in the office suddenly stood up and looked around.
Snapped!
The next moment, the computer screen in the terminal command center jumped, and a strange digital face appeared. After the first screen appeared, other networked computers seemed to be infected with the plague, and the same digital Facebook popped up on their desktops.
"Oh... my little goddess." Bertrand's voice was filled with disbelief.
The entire office fell into dead silence, everyone froze and turned to stone on the spot.
What they worried about happened.
"The computer has been invaded by a virus and is out of control. Call someone from the network security company. Notify us and suspend all flights."
A scream woke everyone up, and everyone in the terminal command center was in a hurry.
at the same time.
Los Angeles, USA,
It's night now, and Tim is watching a video on the computer. The video is on YouTube. The video above is the video of Chen Mo's wedding. This video has nearly 8 billion views on YouTube, making it the video with the highest number of views.
Many people have watched it ten times and are still amazed.
Seeing the dreamy scene on the video, he had to marvel that China today is no longer what it used to be.
As a superpower, they have not yet matured holographic technology, and the Army Ant Company has completely controlled this technology, which makes many Americans feel uncomfortable.
"Valen, do you think China will surpass our country?" Tim looked at the roommate next to him.
"Perhaps, I have read the history of China. China has been glorious for thousands of years. From history to the present, they have been the leader of world civilization and are known as the central country. It was only the Qing Dynasty's seclusion and civilization that stagnated that caused the decline of China in modern times. Now that China has regrouped, it would not be surprising even if they become the number one in the world, they are just restoring their status in history." Warren, who was reading a book, said without raising his head.
"But the quality of the Chinese people is very low. I heard that their country is very chaotic, and the people have no freedom and suffer a lot of oppression?"
"It's chaotic? No freedom? Oppression? They have no freedom? Freedom to hold guns? Do you really believe what the media says? Tim, it's so late, you should go to bed. The whole world knows that the American media is biased against China, you Believe them
Darkness exists everywhere and cannot be eradicated. China has nearly 1.4 billion people and its crime rate is one of the highest in the world. This population in our country, let our crazy president run it, you will know what hell is like. When we are in school, we still have to worry about being shot to death. Do you think they are in chaos or are we in chaos? "
Warren sighed with helplessness and ridicule.
"Go to bed early. Three hours ago, the entire island country was quickly occupied by an unknown computer virus. It is understood that it may appear in other countries. I have to admire you for using your computer to watch videos online..."
Click!
Seeing the screen of Tim's computer, Warren's voice stopped suddenly. The desktop of the computer suddenly flashed, the video playing disappeared, and a strange window popped up, which contained a digital Facebook.
Tim and Valen looked at each other, petrified on the spot.
"Oh, my god!"
Similar scenes appeared in every corner of the world, spreading like a plague. Britain, Germany, Russia, India, South Korea, Southeast Asia, American countries, African countries...
What everyone was worried about has happened.
After receiving the news, countries that were not infected with the virus immediately issued orders to cut off the networks of all large equipment and major departments, and issued network security warnings to many companies.
After the computer virus broke out in the island nation, prepared countries had already cut off the networks of important facilities and major office departments. There were no serious losses, but some individuals were not spared.
"An official notice was issued that due to the outbreak of unknown computer viruses worldwide, network security is threatened. According to research decisions, government departments and agencies at all levels will gradually replace computer office systems with termite systems to facilitate normal operations..." - People's Daily Online
"An unknown virus intrusion was discovered in the United States. Due to the outbreak at night, a large number of personal computers and hundreds of school networks have been infected. Some companies have been infected. Currently, the exchange has stopped stock market trading. The U.S. government issued an announcement to remove the virus. A crisis is defined as a terrorist attack. The CIA is offering a $10 million reward for the hackers who spread the virus and those who provide information." - Washington Daily
"Industry sources: The unknown virus is currently only found to be running normally on the computer terminal system control server, and no signs of damage have been found. The characteristics are similar to the 'Joker Virus'. No effective killing method has been found yet, termites The system's intelligent firewall can resist unknown viruses." - Science and Technology Daily
"The United Nations held an emergency meeting, calling on countries around the world to unite to solve the computer virus crisis, and named the computer virus 'Satan'. Satan has brought unprecedented challenges to global network security..." - Global Network
"While the world is under cyber attack, China has not been hit by a large-scale virus. It may be Chinese hackers who spread the virus." -BBC
"Official announcement from the Marching Ant Group: The termite computer intelligent operating system is not affected by the 'Satan' virus and can be used for normal office use."
In just 24 hours, an unknown computer virus took over the global network. News spread through various channels. The mobile phone system was not affected by the virus, so everyone could clearly see various messages.
Global shock.
An unprecedented computer virus crisis has emerged.
The advent of 'Satan' has seriously threatened global economic security. Although it will not cause heavy losses to the entire world, its impact has exceeded the sum of all previous computer viruses and has shaken the foundation of the world's Internet security.
The whole world is very busy, and everyone is trying to find the culprit.
…
"President, the analysis of the network security team has come out. This is a new type of smart virus." Wei Zhe entered Zhao Min's office with the report of the company's network security team.
"Smart virus?" Zhao Min's eyelids twitched.
"Yes, 'Satan' is intelligent and can replicate independently, bundled in various files, and spread through the Internet. This is the root cause of its rapid spread. Its characteristics are similar to the 'Joker Virus', but it is much stronger than the 'Joker Virus' , and can automatically search for computer system vulnerabilities, it cannot be ruled out that it is a variant of the 'Joker virus'."
Wei Zhe looked tired. Ever since Satan broke out, they had been working on technical problems and had only a few hours of rest. Experts from the entire company are involved, and only now do they have a clue.
Zhao Min took the document and looked through it briefly. She didn't understand any of the professional terms in it, so she simply put it on the table.
"Is there any way to clear it?"
"The company's current anti-virus software cannot remove 'Satan', and the security team is currently conducting technical research, which will take a certain amount of time." Wei Zhe said: "If it were the boss, he should be able to solve it quickly."
In Wei Zhe's eyes, although Chen Mo is younger than him, he feels capable of doing anything.
"The boss is on his honeymoon now. If there is such a big fuss, he will definitely know about it. If he wants to take action, he has contacted me a long time ago. Should I call to disturb his honeymoon and ask him to deal with me when he comes back
The company cannot rely on the boss alone to support so many technical staff, but they are not the breadwinners. The termite system and the 'Artificial Intelligence+' project did not have a boss, so wouldn't they be successful? You are very strong, the boss just covered up your shine, this is an opportunity for you to show your strength. "Zhao Min said.
"I understand." Wei Zhe nodded.
"Have the public relations department announce the news to the outside world, saying that this is a smart virus, and publish your report." Zhao Min clicked on the report on the table.
After Wei Zhe left, Zhao Min turned around and stood by the window of the office.
She had a bad feeling.
The storm came without warning, but they were the ones who benefited the most. It was like pie falling from the sky.
The termite system was released in response to the crisis of the 'Joker Virus' from the very beginning. It was claimed to be the most secure system when it was released, using an intelligent firewall. In this 'Satan' crisis, it stood alone and became the only computer operating system that could resist 'Satan'.
It's only been one day since the 'Satan' virus broke out, but their operating system's market share has already risen crazily.
Especially the cash cows in corporate offices.
Officials and enterprises collectively purchase termite systems and corresponding office software, and foreign companies that have been threatened have also begun to contact them. By swallowing the cash cow of corporate offices, they will have a steady stream of profits.
But she couldn't be happy.
This benefit came too suddenly and brought them into the center of public opinion. It was so sudden that they could easily be targeted.
In the past, the market share of computer operating systems was quietly expanded, but now they are brought to the table, and they are still growing explosively, which will definitely attract jealousy.
"A blessing in disguise, how could you know it was a blessing?"
