At this moment in the security building, because Kaufman, Mike and others are all focused on Wu Kangsheng, hoping that he can decipher the key needed to restore the files, so they didn't realize that the popularity of Xingdun had spread to the external network in the first place. .

As for Wu Kangsheng, surrounded by so many people, although he could maintain his confidence at first, the sweat on his forehead gradually increased as time passed.

Unexpectedly, the actual difficulty of deciphering the key is much higher than he imagined.

It's just that the bull has been blown out.

If the final result is the same as that of Pingguo Weiruan and the others, doesn't it mean that the artificial intelligence he developed is useless.

He could not accept this humiliation anyway.

So I can only grit my teeth to withstand all the pressure, and use various methods to try to crack it.

that's it.

I don't know how long it has passed, but when the others were about to lose their hold and feel drowsy, Wu Kangsheng's excited voice finally sounded in the information room.

"We made it!"

"Has the key been deciphered?" Kaufman, who was the first to react, hurriedly walked to Wu Kangsheng's side, and opened his mouth to confirm the situation.

"With the help of Alpha's analysis and calculation, we successfully obtained a key. As long as the encrypted file can be successfully recovered, it means that the key can be used."

Faced with Kaufman's question, Wu Kangsheng suppressed the excitement in his chest, and tried to use the key to restore the data while talking.

But seeing such a scene, apart from Mike's excited face, Pingguo and the technicians sent by Weiruan looked a little unnatural, as if they were secretly planning something in their hearts.

It is undoubtedly a good thing for them to be able to decipher the key, but the biggest hero cannot fall on Google's artificial intelligence Alpha.

The main artificial intelligence is recognized as the most competitive technology in the future industry. The three of them started research on artificial intelligence a long time ago, trying to apply it in various scenarios to achieve the best results.

But so far there have been no major technological breakthroughs.

On the contrary, a new company called Future Technology has achieved technological overtaking in the field of artificial intelligence.

Based on this, two excellent products, Yinglong Chip Design Software of Magic Star Engine, have been developed.

Therefore, they are also under a lot of pressure. In the past two years, they have increased their investment in research in the field of artificial intelligence, which can be regarded as a layout for the future.

Originally, there was no problem with the balance among the three parties, but if Guge rises first and really develops a very powerful artificial intelligence, it will pose some threats to the other two.

Unfortunately, it turns out that their worries were unnecessary.

Just after Wu Kangsheng took the so-called key deciphered to restore the encrypted file, he found that there was no effect at all, and all the data information was still locked.

In other words, the key he had worked so hard to decipher was fake.

"How could this be ineffective? It shouldn't be. Something must have gone wrong."

Wu Kangsheng was not reconciled to this result, and he wanted to decipher it again while repeating his murmur, but before he could do it, he was pulled up by Kaufman who was completely impatient.

"What a useless piece of trash, get out!"

Perhaps it was because of a major blow in his heart that Wu Kangsheng questioned the artificial intelligence he developed for the first time. He never thought that after putting so much effort into it, it would still be inferior to the technology of future technology.

The whole person is like an eggplant beaten by frost, and the spirit in his eyes is completely lost.

After being pulled up by Kaufman, he sat paralyzed on the ground next to him, without any movement of his limbs, and was finally helped to the seat next to him by his subordinates.

The last hope is completely shattered, which means that all terminal devices attacked by virus programs will lose the information stored in them.

It is roughly estimated that there are as many as 300 million devices, and there is no way to calculate the actual loss.

Knowing the consequences of this, Kaufman's face was gloomy, and he wanted to beat Mike violently in his heart, and at the same time, he felt extremely regretful for agreeing to Mike's request.

It should have been Mike's own responsibility, but now he might be implicated and face punishment.

As for the technicians of the major companies standing in the distance, they are also afraid to show their pride at this time, for fear of being used as a punching bag.

However, they didn't feel too much burden in their hearts. Although they failed to decipher the key, due to the strong security protection system of their company, the internal equipment was not attacked by this virus program, so they were naturally confident.

Seeing that the situation was about to turn into a mess, Brady next to him seemed to have made some decision, and suddenly took the initiative to walk up to Kaufman.

While handing over the tablet in his hand, he said, "Sir Kaufman, you might as well take a look at this first."

"what is this?"

Kaufman's attention was diverted to the tablet by Brady's words, and he was surprised, but he took it and checked it carefully.

What Brady found was nothing else but the request of many users to introduce Star Shield to solve the problem of spreading virus programs. Because Mike's related accounts are basically managed by Brady, this incident was naturally discovered.

Soon.

When Kaufman read the above things, his expression became more dignified, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

After about tens of seconds passed, he suddenly turned around and walked towards Mike with firm eyes.

"Mike, I want you to contact Future Technology as soon as possible and let them launch the overseas version of Star Shield. We can solve all the processes and problems involved."

"Contact Future Technology?"

"Do you want to launch an overseas version of Star Shield?"

Mike heard Kaufman's words into his ears, and was stunned for a short while, then quickly reacted and immediately vetoed: "Kaufman, do you know what you are talking about, let our public equipment install such a How much risk will this bring if the server is set up in Binjiang City's security protection software."

"I will never agree to this."

As the person in charge of business, Mike knows very well that if everyone installs the software developed by this future technology company, all aspects of the public's information may be monitored.

After all, that's what they do.

More importantly, as more and more people install and use Star Shield, they will develop habits and dependence on it.

And this will become a bargaining chip for future technology to enter overseas markets.

In the future, if you want to impose certain restrictions on future technology, I am afraid it will not be so easy to do so.

But at this point, Kaufman will not think about these things that may not happen. The most important thing is to resume the daily work of the security building as soon as possible and clean up this mess.

So Kaufman didn't bother to argue with Mike, and directly made an ultimatum.

"Now Star Shield is our last solution to this matter. No matter who its developer is, we must use it. If you insist on not agreeing, I'm afraid you will have to retire early."

"Don't forget who made the whole thing up, and someone from above will be sent to conduct a detailed investigation soon."

It may be that Kaufman's emotions have completely reached the verge of eruption. After throwing out this sentence in cold words, he immediately turned around and took people away.

Leaving Mike sitting in a chair in a daze, he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. If he had known that such a situation would be created by attacking future technology, he didn't know if he would make the same choice.

There is a high probability that it will not.

"It's just a company that has only been established for three years, but it can push me to this point. How did it do it?"

As the thinking gradually diverged, for some reason, only this question remained in my mind.

In fact, Mike is very clear that because of the serious consequences of this plan, it will be difficult for him to continue to hold his current position regardless of whether he agrees to let Star Shield go online overseas.

As Kaufman said, it is indeed necessary to retire early.

……

……

October 6, Wednesday.

Binjiang City.

In the CEO's office of the future technology company, Xu Lei looked up at Zhang Xia who came in, and asked, "Why, is there anything I need to take care of?"

According to the original itinerary, he was going to inspect the Longhu Hi-Tech Park today.

Because under the supervision of Liu Gaowen, and the sufficient funds in place, the progress of the entire construction project was very fast.

As of today, the main body of the space battleship building of the headquarters has been completed, and core buildings such as the research center data center and major laboratories have also been erected one after another.

There are also entertainment facilities in luxury apartment buildings under construction, which indicates that this high-tech park will not be long before it can be officially put into use.

At that time, all employees of the company and Magic Star Game Studio will move there.

But seeing Zhang Xia walking in suddenly at this time, there must be some important matters in the company that need to be dealt with, so Xu Lei stayed in the office for a while, planning to finish the matter first.

At this time, Zhang Xia didn't hesitate to face Xu Lei's inquiry, and immediately reported: "Mr. Xu, similar virus programs have also appeared in Washington, D.C., Licanif, and other overseas regions, and the total number of devices attacked It has surpassed us."

"Mr. Mike, the business manager of the other party, hopes that we can launch the overseas version of Star Shield to help them solve the impact of the virus program."

"I don't know if we are going to launch an overseas version at this stage?"

After listening to Zhang Xia's report, Xu Lei couldn't help but feel happy. He didn't expect that they, who were always arrogant and arrogant, would take the initiative to ask for help.

It is normal to imagine this happening carefully.

After all, Xu Lei is very aware of how perverted the virus program re-encrypted by Xingtong is. Even if Weiruan Pingguoguge and his company all die, they cannot recover the encrypted data information.

Now that the other party has put their minds on the star shield, it has already explained the problem.

Originally, Xu Lei's doing this was purely to retaliate against the other side, but he did not expect to create an opportunity to enter the overseas market in a fair manner.

If Xingdun can really gain a firm foothold in the field of overseas Internet security, or even achieve a monopoly in the industry, it will be a good thing for the future development of technology in the future.

After thinking about this clearly, Xu Lei replied with a smile: "It's no problem if you want to use our star shield, but you have to pay more!"
