Desperate Hacker

Chapter 92 Statement
Houston, Colonial headquarters.

At this time, in the information department of the headquarters, engineer John, as usual, was developing a new patch for the company's system.

But just then, the phone on his desk rang.

"Hello.?"

"John, I took a look at your email. The sales department in New York called and said that their software seems to be unresponsive!"

"Ok!"

John opened the system as he spoke. He tried using the client call, but after he pressed the button, the entire system was in a delayed state.

This can be fatal in operations.The reason is simple. The order to control oil pipelines cannot be delayed for such a long time because their company's oil pipelines are spread throughout the densely populated areas of the eastern United States.The entire system is very complex. If there is a large-scale delay in a certain link, it means that the entire system will have problems!

John instinctively opened the administrator program, but when he entered his username and password, he was surprised to find that access was denied!
"Did I make a mistake?"

John was surprised and tried again. He entered his username and password letter by letter.But access is still denied.

So he moved his office chair and went to his colleague Mark next door.

"Mark, do me a favor and see if you can log into the database. New York just called and said their program can't be used!"

Mark, who was now holding a burger, heard John's request.He quickly put down the burger, then turned on the screen, and then his fingers flew quickly on the keyboard.

John stared at the login interface on the screen, but the result was that it was still inaccessible.

"Strange!"

"Could it be that you entered the wrong password?"

"impossible!"

While the two were talking, suddenly someone in the office stood up and shouted:
"Who changed my system login password? Why can't I log in to the system?"

"Is the database locked? Boston just called and said their system is unusable!"

As soon as someone finished speaking, the phones in the entire technical department suddenly started ringing one after another.

Then something terrible happened, shocking everyone.

……

Half an hour later, the head of the technical department took Mark and John to stand in front of the company's board of directors.

At this time, the three people were extremely nervous. When the door was opened, all the people working inside were senior executives of the company.

"Gentlemen, my family's farm is delivering my daughter's favorite foal. However, with just one phone call from you, I lost the opportunity to see my daughter see the birth of a new life and be filled with joy! I hope it's not because of some boring things. …”

"First...sir! We just confirmed something..."

"what?"

"Our system has been attacked and the other party has locked our database files. We have not found a solution yet!"

……

For a moment, the entire conference room was in such a state that you could hear a pin drop on the carpet.

Everyone sitting in the conference room finally digested the news after a minute.

"Oh my God! How long is it going to take you to fix this?"

"I don't know, our people are already working overtime..."

"This matter must be done within today! I will sit here and watch you work!"

"gentlemen!"

……

After the attack started, Tawang looked at the price chart on the screen excitedly.

However, after 20 minutes, the price has not changed significantly, and there is even a faint downward trend.

Tawang thought for a moment, and then he opened the message interface.

I searched for information about Colonial Pipeline Company.

It didn't take long for him to understand the problem.After something happened, it seems to be the norm for some companies and organizations to conceal information.

It seems that there is another aspect that was not considered in this plan.

That is, the news of the hacking incident must be spread!
So he picked up his phone and went outside. After thinking for a moment, he wrote the agreed secret words on his phone.

"The child is very happy to receive the gift, but his classmates don't know it yet. I think if you can show the picture of the gift in the circle of friends, the child will definitely get more attention at school!"

After Chen Qingfeng received the message, he looked at it at a loss and didn't know what the other party was expressing.

So he thought for a moment and decided to contact Tawang using encrypted software!
"what are you talking about?"

"Those people blocked the news!"

"What do you mean?"

"The impact of a problem with an oil pipeline is too great. They must want to solve the problem before the news gets out, so the price of West Texas Intermediate oil has not changed now!"

"Then what are we going to do now?"

"How do I know? What will those hacker organizations do after they succeed?"

Chen Qingfeng quickly ended the message.

He looked at the conversation between him and Tawang, confused.

How exactly?
Chen Qingfeng asked Zhao Changan to park the car first, and then directly asked Zhao Changan for his opinion.

"Tawang said let's spread the word online and say we attacked the oil pipeline!"

"What are you kidding?"

"It's not a joke, you know, it's a common trick used by some people to block news! I didn't expect foreigners to do this too!"

"I want to know, how long can your program trap them?"

"It depends on how determined they are. If they restart the system and roll the entire system back to its previous state, then I don't have much else to do!"

"Then do you think they will do that?"

"Do you think securities companies will abandon one day's trading records and roll back directly to the state before one day?"

"Forehead……"

Zhao Changan didn't quite understand, but Chen Qingfeng knew that those people didn't dare to do this.

So Zhao Changan hesitated for a long time and directly opened Douyin.

Modern people are accustomed to seeking various guidance from the Internet.

For example, what would Zhao Changan do if he succeeded in inputting a hacker on Douyin?
So soon, the search results appeared.

"The well-known hacker group Anonymous announced that it has successfully attacked European banks!"

"Master, how about we also make a statement?"

"Declaration of what?"

"State that we have attacked the U.S. oil pipeline system..."

Zhao Changan said and brought the phone over.

Then he saw a line of words on the phone screen, followed by a scene from the movie "V for Vendetta".

Then Zhao Changan excitedly pointed to the content on the phone screen and said:

"Actually, I'm pretty good at making this!"

Chen Qingfeng thought for a while, once he really released such news, he would be equivalent to jumping out and acting as the opponent's enemy.

But now he needs money more. If he doesn't do this, he doesn't know what those people will do in the end.In case they find that they really can't unlock their program, they choose to roll back the system.The plan that has been brewing for so long is about to come to nothing!
"Then do as you say! The name of the organization is...peaker!"

　Sometimes it’s not intentional, I just feel that this kind of thing cannot be solved in a day or two.And there are many interested parties involved.

　　In addition, Yingjiang’s oil pipeline was really hacked by hackers!
