Chapter 485: open letter

"What are you writing?" Zhong Chuhong gently pushed open the door of the study, and asked curiously when she saw her husband who was foreshadowing.

"Isn't this a problem recently, I have to save some image for myself!" Li Xuan raised his head and said with a smile.

This Internet virus incident has sounded the alarm for Internet security all over the world, and Hong Kong is the first to bear the brunt. The Legislative Council of Hong Kong has begun to formulate a new "Computer Security Law".

You must know that Hong Kong is a British colony, and its laws are almost all inherited from the suzerain. The Legislative Council of Hong Kong has long existed in the form of rubber stamps. And unlike the British Parliament, which can stand up to the government. This time, the Legislative Council of Hong Kong rarely took the initiative. It was one step ahead of the sovereign country and began to legislate in the emerging field of the Internet.

After the "n" virus broke out on the Hong Kong network before, the Hong Kong police arrested the criminal suspects within 24 hours, which is a big slap in the face. However, with the rapid spread of the "n" virus on the global network since then, the impact has become greater and greater, and it has also led to more and more attention to the follow-up judicial trial of this case.

At the beginning of the judicial circle in Hong Kong, there was a lot of controversy about what name should be used to convict this incident, and whether it was a criminal or civil crime. Some jurists believe that the virus has disturbed the public order and caused a bad impact, and should be held criminally responsible.

However, some legal experts believe that the current Internet is only a niche and experimental thing, and does not constitute a public order. And this incident had a major impact. It is because of the particularity of the Internet that its scope has been rapidly expanded. Whether all the losses caused by tens of thousands of computers in the world that have been on strike due to the "n" virus infection should be entirely blamed on the virus writers is also a question debatable.

However, although the opinions of Hong Kong legal circles are not completely unified. However, the Hong Kong Department of Justice still filed judicial charges against the suspects. The judicial system in Hong Kong can be divided into the District Court and the Supreme Court, of which the District Court has limited criminal and civil jurisdiction.

For example, the maximum sentence for criminal offences in the District Court is seven years, and serious criminal offences such as manslaughter, murder, and **** are generally referred to the Supreme Court at 38 Queensway, Hong Kong Island. Due to the particularity of this case, the Hong Kong Supreme Court decided to directly take over the judicial power itself.

After a three-month trial, given the sincere attitude of the criminal suspect's confession, and the performance of self-salvation before being caught. For example, he has uploaded a solution to the problem on several major bbs forums in Hong Kong, and the judge who accepted the case finally gave a light sentence.

The suspect was eventually sentenced to 18 months in prison, suspended for 24 months. A fine of HK$10,000. At the same time, he also needs to complete 200 hours of community service under the supervision of the Hong Kong Social Welfare Department. Compared with the impact of this network virus incident on the global Internet, this penalty must not be considered very heavy.

But for this young man who is still in college, this sentence may still have a serious impact on his future life. For example, according to the provisions of Hong Kong law. He is not allowed to leave Hong Kong while on probation. Need to go to the relevant department regularly to sign in.

If he wants to leave Hong Kong, he must obtain approval from the Hong Kong Correctional Services Department. But he is still studying at a university in the United States, and it is really difficult for the Correctional Services Department to approve him to go to the United States for a long time without surveillance. It also means he will likely have to face interruptions in his studies.

Of course, for the writer of the "n" virus, the troubles he will face next, in addition to academic problems, may also encounter other lawsuits. Victims of this cyber virus incident. A civil claim lawsuit is likely to be filed against him!

When the Hong Kong Supreme Court just started hearing the case, there was a professor from the University of Hong Kong in Ming Pao. Plead for the suspect in an open letter. And the media in Hong Kong also carried out a lot of reports and hype on this hot news throughout the trial.

And Li Xuan was soon dragged into the water by some newspapers that were not too serious. They believe that the security loopholes in the as-os system of Dongfang System Software Company should also bear a great responsibility for the rapid spread of the "n" virus.

Compared with students who are still studying and have no financial compensation ability, Li Xuan, the richest man in the world, should take the initiative to stand up and provide compensation to users who suffered economic losses in this online virus incident.

In fact, such people have indeed appeared in Hong Kong and the United States, and they want to take the opportunity to bite a big piece of fat from the mouth of Li Xuan, the richest man in the world. Several U.S. lawyers even tried to make a name for themselves through this kind of lawsuit, and began to persuade victims of the Internet virus to file a class-action lawsuit against Eastern System Software.

But in Li Xuan's view, this is actually a robber logic of robbing the rich to help the poor. Because Dongfang System Software Co., Ltd. is also a victim of this incident, not an accomplice. There are loopholes in the program, which is an unavoidable situation for any software.

Dongfang System Software failed to discover all program loopholes before the software was listed. This has to be said to be a pity, but it is definitely not a fault. Therefore, Dongfang System Software will never admit that it needs to be responsible for this issue. Because once this kind of precedent is set, it will definitely be a disaster for the entire company, and similar cases will keep coming to you in the next time!

"I thought you were going to set up a special foundation to compensate the victims of this incident!" Zhong Chuhong said with some puzzlement.

According to estimates by relevant agencies, the direct economic loss caused by the "n" virus to the world is about 100 million Hong Kong dollars, which is about 13 million US dollars. This amount of money is not a big sum for Li Xuan at all, and there are indeed many newspapers in Hong Kong appealing to Li Xuan to make him, the world's richest man, show more generosity.

"If it was on other public welfare and charitable projects, I would donate 10 to 20 million dollars more. It's really not a big deal! After all, no matter how much money I have in my hand, it's just a string of numbers. If I take the initiative to bear this loss this time, it will likely be interpreted as atonement for our as-os system.

This will make our Eastern Group shoulder some moral responsibilities that should not be borne by us at all! There will definitely be more and more computers connected to the Internet in the future. If another computer expert finds other loopholes in the as-os system and causes the next disaster, causing hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in losses, then I will be It's not that you have to sell your property to take responsibility! "Li Xuan shook his head and sighed.

"A letter to Mr. Bao Green, the principal, are you writing a letter of pleading?" Zhong Chuhong turned his attention to the material that Li Xuan was writing just now. So he picked up the stationery he had written in English all night, and translated the title into Chinese.

"Yeah, some people hoped that I could pay for the losses caused by the 'n' virus. But your husband, I decisively refused. I don't want to let myself be infected with endless similar troubles in the future because of this incident. , As a result, many newspapers regarded me as rich and unkind!

There were people who had hoped that I could come forward to plead with His Excellency the Governor and make me think that anyone had made a mistake. All should be subject to the same judgment of the law. Human interference in justice. Absolutely a stupid thing to do! "Li Xuan deliberately put on a very majestic expression.

"Capital is evil, and rich people are not good things. Don't pretend to be a good person, I'm a little sick to my stomach!" Zhong Chuhong rolled her eyes at her husband, unable to stand his seriousness.

"You are my rich wife, can you put your **** right first! Besides, it's not because of my nausea that you are nauseated, but because the baby in your belly is too naughty, don't blame the pregnancy reaction. On my head!" Li Xuan patted his knees. Have pregnant women sit on their laps.

"What did you write to the principal of S in the letter?" Zhong Chuhong asked curiously, she just read the title of the article.

"According to the laws of Hong Kong, the personal freedom of the probationer is restricted. The person who made this trouble may not be able to leave Hong Kong for two years. And because of the problem of criminal charges, he may be directly expelled.

So I hope that the principal of s can give the students who have made mistakes a chance to return from the lost. Let him continue to retain his student status in s while he is punished in Hong Kong! And if he is expelled from school, the rest of his life is likely to change as well! "Li Xuan explained.

"Then are you familiar with the principal of s? Don't end up ignoring you at all. The face of the world's richest man will be disgraced!" Zhong Chuhong asked with great interest.

"With your husband's face, this kind of trivial matter is naturally easy to handle!" Li Xuan said confidently.

s is the third best university among all 10 campuses in the University of California system, after Berkeley and Los Angeles. Higher education in the United States can be divided into two categories: private universities and public universities. Like the Ivy League, Stanford University, Columbia University, etc. are all private universities.

The United States does not have public universities at the national level, and all public universities are established by each state. The state finances provide a large part of the finances for the state's public universities. Therefore, in economically strong states such as California, Texas, and New York, the level of education and scientific research in public universities is much better than other small states.

In California, there are actually three public higher education systems: the California Community College system, the California State University system, and the University of California system. Community colleges in the United States usually only offer two-year primary education. Its entry threshold is very low, and most students are not educated full-time, but work part-time.

The California State University system and the University of California system, although there is only a two-character difference in Chinese translation, but the conditions are vastly different. The former is a university responsible for teaching, the latter is a research-oriented university, and the latter is much better than the former.

You graduated from a community college, which is equivalent to a two-year college diploma in China. Graduating from a state university is equivalent to an ordinary undergraduate level, while graduating from a state university system is equivalent to a heavy undergraduate level.

But like Berkeley (b), Los Angeles (a), and San Diego (s) in the University of California, these three universities in China are at least analogous to the 985 level. Compared with b and a, s' fame and strength are slightly inferior.

However, s is usually among the top 30 in the comprehensive rankings of various universities in the United States. The most famous strong subject is biological engineering, but its computer and electrical engineering subjects are also very good. For example, the National Science Foundation of the United States deliberately chose s to set up the San Diego Supercomputer Center.

s also has a lot of cooperation with the Oriental Group. For example, the foundation under the name of Li Xuan has started to provide various scholarships for Chinese students studying in the United States in recent years, and s is one of the partner institutions of this project.

American universities generally announce the admission results from the end of March to the beginning of April. Among the Chinese students admitted this year, a total of 35 international students from the mainland, Hong Kong, and Taiwan have received full, half, or special scholarships. .

American universities have always hoped that all sectors of society would come to set up various scholarships. To a certain extent, this is also part of the school's donation. Therefore, donors like Li Xuan are naturally very valuable in the eyes of various university presidents.

In fact, long before Li Xuan started writing this letter, he had already called the principal of S to communicate. The tone of the other party's voice in the call actually has a taste of winning. His own student has caused a global sensation, at least proving that he is not a mediocrity, but a genius who has gone the wrong way.

The purpose of education has always been to cure diseases and save people. For students who think about getting lost, the university should never shut him out. This is the promise made to Li Xuan by Principal Paul Green~www.readwn.com~ So Li Xuan is now This open letter written by me is actually just a hype show. The letter will be on the front page of the South China Morning Post tomorrow. After Li Xuan's side began to act, the University of S, which received the open letter in the email version, would reply as soon as possible, and cooperate with Li Xuan in a win-win PR campaign. Li Xuan can take this opportunity to fight back against the recent attacks on him for being hairless and irresponsible, and s can get a higher reputation!

"After you finish writing, do you want to leave it to Ms. Karina to polish it?" Zhong Chuhong asked with some humor, looking at Li Xuan, who had begun to seriously revise the article again.

"There is a specialization in the art industry, and I also admit that I am not an all-rounder, and I am not a material for dancing and writing!" Li Xuan said calmly.

As a science male, this kind of wordplay is really not his forte. And Ms. Karina in Zhong Chuhong's mouth is the actual author of the first book Li Xuan is writing, "The Road to the Future".

Li Xuan's so-called writing method is to dictate his own views and opinions to this lady Karina in straightforward words. After processing and polishing the language material provided by Li Xuan, the other party transformed it into beautiful written language, and then took it back to Li Xuan for review!
