Reborn in the red age

Li Qingfeng acted very quickly. In just two days, he rented an American-style villa in a remote, unsurveilled community in the suburbs of New York.

The room is fully furnished and you can move in just by buying some daily necessities.

On the day I rented the house, I applied for Internet access service from the telephone and telegraph company.

Of course, the identity information used to rent the house and apply for Internet access was definitely not my own, but was found by a white homeless person in the park.

After giving the other party a bribe of two hundred dollars, the other party readily agreed to lend him his identity information and cooperated with the arrangements of Li Qingfeng and others throughout the process.

With the trend of US dollars, network access is very fast.

It would take an ordinary user half a month to complete the installation successfully, but the installation of this rented villa was completed in just five days.

During the five days of waiting for the network cable to be connected, Li Qingfeng and others were not idle. They wrote a set of simple network detection tools and proxy IP software.

And following the same routine as the first time he rented a house, he rented several apartments that were connected to the Internet in several cities around New York, and set up a small server in each apartment.

When setting up a small server and starting the attack, you can use layers of IP proxies to hide your real IP address, adding an extra layer of insurance for this action.

Based on current network security technology, it would take at least one month to find the real IP address through layers of IP.

After everything was ready, under the leadership of Li Qingfeng, the hacker attack officially began.

Opening the network detection tool written a few days ago, the program began to quickly scan America Online's servers, looking for possible vulnerabilities.

The living room on the second floor of the villa was extremely quiet, with only the hum of computer fans and the sound of keyboards.

Qian Jiguang, who was responsible for the attack on Lemon Company, was the first to find the system vulnerability and began to attempt the attack.

After the success of this hacker attack, it will definitely cause a commotion in the United States, especially this hacker attack. Although Li Qingfeng will do some cover-up and try not to give people the impression that it is 100% Chinese who are responsible for this hacker attack, there will definitely be many people who suspect that it was done by the Chinese.

Therefore, the first target of attack by Li Qingfeng, the sixth brother, was his own company's system.

Give the world an illusion that Lemon Company was the first to be hacked. After the hackers failed to break through Lemon Company's defenses, they turned to other targets.

When the time comes, Lemon Company can completely bring out the records of this attack to make its case.

Anyone who could do such a thing must be an angry young man. How could an angry young man who came to retaliate against America choose his own country's companies as the first target of attack?
It was definitely done by people from other countries that were invaded by the U.S. military. The content included what happened in Chinese waters a few days ago, but it was only mentioned in passing to demonstrate the hegemony of the U.S. military.

Although this excuse is very poor, as long as the United States has not caught the person, it has no evidence and cannot directly put the blame on the Chinese. It also avoids unnecessary trouble for the country.

As the technical backbone of Lemon Company, he was very familiar with Lemon Company's servers. He skillfully avoided some conventional security protection mechanisms, bypassed the server's first security barrier, and entered the interior of the system.

As a world-class Internet company that is frequently attacked by hackers, Lemon's security system is more than just for show. The cost of its firewalls each year is an astronomical figure.

Almost at the same time as Qian Jiguang went deeper, the server's security alarm was triggered and the company's internal security team immediately took action.

The security team quickly launched an emergency response mechanism and, with rich experience and advanced security tools, quickly located the source of Qian Jiguang's attack.

A series of encrypted firewalls were urgently activated to block Qian Jiguang's attack path layer by layer.

Relying on his familiarity with the company's servers, Qian Jiguang accelerated the attack and quickly broke through the encryption defense line set up by the security team.

The security guards of the Bay Area branch were stunned for a moment. Where the hell did this expert come from? How could he be so fast?

The attack lasted for six hours, and Qian Jiguang made multiple breakthroughs, causing the Bay Area security team to question their lives.

He exclaimed that the person on the other side of the screen must be the world's number one hacker Kevin Mitnick or America's number one computer expert Tsutomu Shimomura.

(Kevin Mitnick is the world's number one hacker. He conducted a series of high-profile hacking activities during the 1980s and 1990s, invading the computer systems of many large companies, government agencies and telecommunications companies. Even the Pentagon did not escape Kevin's intrusion)
Fortunately, the security team of Lemon Company finally held the bottom line and was not completely breached by Qian Jiguang.

Qian Jiguang realized that he couldn't break through and stopped pestering them. He quietly began to remove any traces that might expose his identity.

Then, through a series of complex network jumps and proxy servers, it quietly exited the Lemon Company's server.

Li Qingfeng, who was standing behind Qian Jiguang, nodded with satisfaction as he looked at Qian Jiguang, who was clearing away all traces and leaving with a serious expression.

He said to Yu Zheng and others who were watching on the side: "Not bad, not bad, it seems that the company's security team has been trained over the years, and they can even stop an opponent who is so familiar with our company's server."

"Of course. Our company has the most technically advanced security team in the world. Even Kevin can't break through our firewall," said Yu Zheng, who works at the headquarters, proudly.

Seeing that Qian Jiguang had finished his work, Li Qingfeng clapped his hands and said, "Okay, it's evening, let's start eating. After dinner, we will officially start attacking America Online tomorrow."

"Let's eat"

In the evening in the villa, Li Qingfeng cooked himself and made a pot of tomato and egg noodles for everyone.

After eating and drinking, I went to sleep. The next morning, I started the real business of attacking America Online's server.

The attack on America Online's server was not as smooth as the attack on Lemon Company in the morning. It took two full days to find the vulnerability in the server.

Before starting the attack, Li Qingfeng clapped his hands to draw everyone's attention here: "Quick battle, after breaking through America Online's defenses, if there is still time, we will also learn from Kevin and go to the Pentagon to take a look."

When everyone heard this, a glimmer of excitement flashed in their eyes. They rubbed their hands together and began the formal attack.

Compared to the familiarity with Lemon Company, this attack on America Online is relatively unfamiliar to everyone. The people who are attacking appear to be very cautious in their operations. Every operation is carefully considered, for fear of attracting the attention of the other party in advance.

Fortunately, Yu Zheng and others had superb skills and were very cautious, so the intrusion did not attract the attention of America Online's security department, and they successfully hacked into America Online's server.

Liu Guangmin looked at Li Qingfeng, his eyes revealing a hint of nervousness and expectation as he asked, "Teacher, we have already hacked into the server. Should we start the action now?"

He looked at the time on his wrist. It was 2pm, the working time, a good time to attack. With Li Qingfeng's nod, Liu Guangmin tapped the keyboard lightly and began his operation.

A virus program disguised as a file that he wrote himself was uploaded into the system. This virus exploited a vulnerability in America Online's email system.

It is designed to be automatically forwarded between users and exists in a form that looks like a normal email, making it difficult for users to detect.

Once the user downloads this file, the content uploaded by Li Qingfeng and others will appear on the screen and will be locked for three minutes.

Within these three minutes, it will automatically forward the email to all contacts in the user's address book.

In addition to a detailed description of what happened in the previous few days, Li Qingfeng also included some of the actions of the United States in the invasion war in the previous two years, and the main content is the scandal of the American army.

For example, it exposed the massacre of civilians by American soldiers. In order to make people more convinced, Li Qingfeng also added some real photos.

These photos were found in the computers of retired American soldiers who participated in the invasion of Panama. When sending them, Li Qingfeng did not blur them, and the visual effect is very shocking.

The action this time was simple. It just informed the American people about what the U.S. military did overseas and did not harm ordinary people's computers.

After three minutes, the locked screen is automatically unlocked and can be deleted by the user at will.

After the virus started running, Li Qingfeng and the other five people quickly packed up and left, while Sun Aidang and the others stayed behind to clear all traces to prevent the FBI from finding any clues when they find this place in the future.

After leaving this house, Li Qingfeng and others did not return home, but came to the next house that had been prepared in advance.

Put on the computer and start the attack on the Pentagon.

The Pentagon has been hacked many times by Kevin, but in recent years, the protection of the network has been strengthened, making intrusion extremely difficult.

However, Li Qingfeng could not be stopped. This time, Li Qingfeng took action personally and spent half a month to break into the Pentagon and steal a large number of confidential documents.

After stealing the files, Li Qingfeng uploaded some of them to a website prepared in advance without any hesitation, allowing anyone to download and distribute them at will.

After doing this, Li Qingfeng and others did not stop. While the American government had not yet reacted, they took out the Japanese passports they had prepared in advance and boarded a plane to Tokyo at the airport.

On the plane to Tokyo, Mao Youmin looked at his name in his passport, which read "Five Times a Night".

He smiled and said jokingly: "I never thought that one day I would become a Japanese soldier. Do you think this counts as being a traitor?"

Liu Guangmin patted Mao Youmin on the shoulder and said with a smile: "How can this be considered a traitor? We are also fighting for the country on a secret front, right? Now we are just using our Japanese identities to protect ourselves. When we return to China, we will still be upright Chinese citizens."

"What Old Liu said makes sense, but compared to whether you, Old Mao, are a traitor, I'm more curious about your name." Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Mao Youmin with a smile in his eyes.

"What happened to my name?"

"Five times a night, wow, that's awesome, bro"

Liu Guangmin, who also works in Hong Kong, immediately understood what Yu Zheng meant. He couldn't help but burst into laughter, holding his stomach.

"What's wrong? Aren't all the Japs' names like this? This Lang, that Lang."

Having been working in the mainland and not having much exposure to certain things, Mao Youmin didn't understand what this meant for a moment. But when he saw the two old classmates looking so happy, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

It would have been fine if he hadn't asked, but after Mao Youmin asked this, the two of them laughed even more happily.

After a long time, Yu Zheng stopped laughing, glanced at Li Qingfeng who was dozing off nearby, leaned over to the ears of Mao Youmin and Qian Jiguang who were also confused, and whispered the reason.

Now, there is one more person who laughs at the name Five Times a Night.

The four of them joked for a while before stopping.

After calming down, Qian Jiguang looked at the white clouds outside the window and said thoughtfully: "What we did this time will definitely cause an uproar in the United States, especially the invasion of the Pentagon and the disclosure of the criminal records of the mold soldiers against civilians in the occupied areas. I wonder how those people will react."

Liu Guangmin continued: "Why should we care about the public's reaction? The leaked documents alone have made this rogue government lose face in front of the whole world."

"Yes, the exposure of those confidential documents will definitely cause great trouble to the rogue government. They have been trying to cover up their crimes in the war. This time we will reveal the truth and see how they can quibble."

"That is, America bullied us at home and made us suffer such a great humiliation. We cannot retaliate militarily, so we civilians will retaliate in our own way. If the news can be spread back to the country, it will also let the people in the country breathe a sigh of relief."

Li Qingfeng, who had been dozing with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes as he listened to the conversation between the four people.

Looking at the four people, he whispered, "We have caused America to suffer a great loss this time. They will definitely not let it go. When you return to China, you must keep a low profile and do not mention this to anyone. Do you understand?"

“Understand” multiplied by four.

After answering, Yu Zheng sighed with regret: "I don't know what the situation in America is like now. I really want to know what the situation in America is like now."

"Just be patient and wait for a few hours. With the Internet, information is transmitted very quickly. When you land, you will know what is happening in America."

"makes sense"

While Li Qingfeng and others were talking, America was in complete chaos as a large number of confidential documents hiding scandals were released.

When these shocking US military scandals were made public, the entire society was instantly thrown into an uproar.

Groups of students and teachers first took to the streets and held demonstrations to protest the government's war actions and its shielding of murderers.

The large-scale demonstrations that broke out in the country have made American bureaucrats anxious and angry at the hackers who invaded the Pentagon. (End of this chapter)
