Build a game empire from scratch

Zhao Yucheng rubbed his butt, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt. It didn't feel like a simple bug.

After thinking about it, I still left the office and planned to go to the program department to see their progress.

After the prank was over, Lin You also called Lu Wei.

Lin You? What's the matter? Lu Wei asked with a smile.

I don't know much about commercial crime, so I want to ask you for advice. Someone has stolen Yunmeng's virtual reality technology. Can I arrest him if I call the police now? Or do I have to wait until he makes a profit?

Virtual reality technology? Are you sure? Lu Wei's voice instantly became serious.

Of course I'm sure. I completely copied Yunmeng's technology, and even copied the trap instructions.

It’s actually not accurate to say that. NetDragon did copy the code completely, but it was discovered by Xiaomeng not because of a trap instruction—as long as the virtual world is built according to Lin You’s technical standards, it will definitely be discovered, and there is no way to hide it.

But saying it like this is too easy to attract suspicion. If it is not necessary, Lin You will definitely not take the initiative to say it.

Trap command? You have locked the suspect? Who did it?

Net Dragon. Lin You said concisely.

Net Dragon?? Lu Wei was very surprised, How did they get it?

How do I know... Lin You replied speechlessly, That's why I asked, can I call the police directly.

No! Lu Wei replied decisively: This is not a simple commercial crime, and there is no need to go through the ordinary process of solving the case.

What do you mean? Lin You didn't understand.

Lu Wei did not answer directly, but asked Lin You: Do you know what it means to be on the top secret patent list?

What does it mean? Lin You has always been a little strange. Why is it necessary to keep a technology that is already known to the world?

National security! Lu Wei said decisively, For technologies on the top-secret patent list, in the past, only confidential units were eligible to apply for authorization, and the higher the level of technology secrecy, the fewer units eligible to apply for authorization. Even if your technology is an exception , wanting to authorize also requires additional confidentiality measures.”

Stealing such technology is not a simple commercial crime, but a suspected crime of endangering national security!

You give me the evidence and clues, and I will contact the security department now.

Also, since you followed the clues to NetDragon, can you intercept the information and ensure that NetDragon will not leak any further information? It will take some time for our personnel to rush over.

Yes, yes, but this thing is illegal... Lin You definitely couldn't say 'no', and Lu Wei wouldn't believe it.

I give you authorization.

That's no problem, I'll send you the evidence right away, and hurry up if you authorize it.

After hanging up the phone, Lin You asked Xiaomeng to file the tracked network address as evidence and pass it on to Lu Wei.

Lu Wei also acted very quickly, and a signed and stamped official authorization letter was sent over - in Lin You's current capacity, this thing is actually not important, but there is nothing wrong with being careful about this kind of thing.

After confirming that there was no problem, Lin You asked Xiaomeng to put it away, and then began to... be in a daze.

When he exited the virtual world of NetDragon, Xiaomeng had already fully monitored NetDragon's data network.

The network headquarters and R\u0026D center, all the archived data in the past, all the data being generated now, and even the surveillance cameras in the office, everything has been taken over by Xiaomeng and closely monitored.

When Lu Wei takes people to look for evidence, he can guarantee that NetDragon will not be able to delete it if he wants to, unless he blows up the server.

In fact, it's useless if it really blows up, Xiaomeng has almost finished backing up - fix the evidence before doing anything, this is still a good habit taught by Lin You.

Now the two are lying on the small sofa, watching NetDragon's live broadcast.

Until Xiaomeng suddenly said: Master~ Can we go to see it?

...

NetDragon's program department, the head of the department, Pan Yan, is explaining the current progress to Zhao Yucheng——

That is no progress.

They couldn't figure it out at all, this is obviously a simple herd code, plus the logic of movement, everything is very clear, there is no fuzzy field.

The only uncertainty is the randomness they add to the trajectory.

Considering the front has been working fine until it's time for them to put a roof on the virtual house, the herd suddenly goes crazy.

They have some doubts: it may be the action of capping that caused some compatibility problems between the software they wrote and the virtual world.

In that case, shouldn't there be a problem with the house? Why is the cow crazy? Zhao Yucheng couldn't understand.

In fact, Pan Yan didn't understand either.

But he had to find a way to explain: The emergence of BUG is often unpredictable, and we need more time to analyze.

Zhao Yucheng was silent for a moment, then asked again: Could it be that the system has been hacked?

The intermittent phantom pain on his butt gave him a strong sense of being targeted.

Impossible! Pan Yan looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Absolutely impossible!

Why is it impossible?

The virtual world is not directly connected to the external network at all, we just built a small local area network internally.

If outsiders want to invade, they must first break through our peripheral firewall, then accurately find the internal network of the program department, and finally enter the network of the virtual world. During this process, they must break through at least six security measures! No one can stay silent Come in, change a bunch of things, and go out quietly!

Pan Yan was emotional.

In any case, NetDragon used to be richer.

I have always attached great importance to the security of my own server, and have spent money on security protection measures.

Lin... As soon as the word came out of his mouth, Zhao Yucheng stopped immediately, and changed the way of asking: Can't even the top hacker in the world?

No. Pan Yan was categorical, The servers we use are already top-level commercial servers, and the security protection measures are also the top mature solutions in the industry.

It is almost impossible to crush us with computing power; even if the computing power can reach the level of crushing, it will take a long time to brute force the firewall, and more importantly-this process cannot be hidden from us.

After I came back from you, I immediately asked the network security department. The firewall is all normal, and there is no sign of being breached. Today, the frequency of external attacks is even lower than before!

——As for being attacked, this is not surprising. For large companies, this is a daily project.

I also led a team to conduct a thorough investigation on the intranet, and there was no trace of intrusion.

As a professional technical talent, Pan Yan obviously thinks ahead of the boss and has a strong ability to act.

This made Zhao Yucheng finally heave a sigh of relief: It seems that it was indeed an accident caused by technical problems.

Okay, then you guys work hard and find out what's going on quickly. Your next task is very heavy, but as long as you finish it early, I promise: the year-end bonus will definitely satisfy you!

Understood! Pan Yan responded decisively.

He had already prepared himself mentally and planned to follow Yu Gu's example and live in the office for a month or two.

Zhao Yucheng nodded, and was about to say something to boost morale, but he didn't want to hear a click in his ear, and then the light in the entire office dimmed.

In the open office, dozens of computer screens and chassis lights went out at the same time.

The power went out? Pan Yan had just pulled the switch once, and he was very familiar with this scene.

What's going on! We're slowing down at the critical moment! Zhao Yucheng took out his cell phone dissatisfied, found the administrative phone number from the address book, and pressed the dial button.

But the moment the number was dialed, the phone hung up automatically, and it was impossible to dial out at all.

Zhao Yucheng tried three times irritably, only to realize something was wrong: his mobile phone had no signal.

It's not that the signal is weak, but that it's completely gone.

What's the situation? Zhao Yucheng looked at Pan Yan strangely, Does your phone have a signal?

Pan Yan took out his mobile phone and looked, No.

He turned to look at his colleagues: Do you have a signal on your mobile phone?

No. No. Me neither.

Pan Yan was a little surprised: What's going on? The nearby communication base station is out of order?

Zhao Yucheng didn't answer, he suddenly had a bad feeling, and there was another faint phantom pain in his buttocks.

...

The headquarters of NetDragon is an 8-story office building rented in the high-tech industrial park.

Before the power outage, a large number of usually inconspicuous vans quickly gathered in the four directions of the office building.

The moment the power was cut off, the high-power signal jammer was activated immediately, and the two nearest communication base stations also reduced the signal strength at the same time.

Then the back door of the carriage opened, and the fully armed SWAT team in special combat uniforms rushed out of the carriage and rushed into the building.

The front door, back door, side door, security door, underground garage, all exits are controlled immediately.

The crimson warning strip neatly surrounded the entire building.

From now on, this 12-storey building will be completely blocked, both physically and informationally!

The criminal suspect is already unable to fly!

Stand still! Hands up! Get out of your position!

The three girls at the front desk were instantly frightened when they saw the special police rushing in with the black muzzle of their guns pointing at them.

My hands and feet are weak, I can't move.

Hands up! Stay away from the phone! The SWAT team was cautious and would never miss any details. After all, landlines are dedicated lines, and many of them can be used even if the power is out.

——They still don't know that the communication operator has suspended all services to NetDragon.

But it didn't matter, three special police officers stepped forward, one for each, and took him out and put him in the corner.

At the same time, two other people stepped forward and began to collect and confiscate the visitor registration form at the front desk.

At the same time, a group of people took the elevator to the program department on the eighth floor to control Zhao Yucheng.

The rest took the stairs, swept up layer by layer, controlled all personnel, and waited for screening.

*

In the program department on the 8th floor, Zhao Yucheng walked around anxiously, the phone still had no signal, and restarting it didn't help.

He anxiously walked to the window, wanting to see how many people were affected by the interruption of the signal.

Just seeing this, he was so startled that his legs went limp on the spot, and he quickly stretched out his hand to hold onto the window sill——

I don't know when, a dense group of special police officers gathered below without making a sound, and surrounded the NetDragon headquarters building completely!

While terrified, he was also a little confused:

This can't be looking for me, can it?

Even if the theft of virtual reality technology is discovered, it is still a commercial crime. A few police officers are enough, right?

There are so many special police officers densely packed, and the power is cut off and the signal is cut off. Such an exaggerated net, at least it must be able to catch terrorists, right?

I, Zhao Yucheng, have no virtue or ability! !

The second is a little later.
