Chapter 120 Sweet dreams turn into nightmares (monthly)
"Can it really be done?" Feng Jin was a little skeptical. Can such important data be easily purchased?
"Don't worry." Xu Pengyuan said, "I investigated and found out that the person who took over the task was the famous hacker organization Shadow Bats. Their order success rate on the dark web is as high as 95%. The only time they failed was because someone else
of hackers attack their targets ahead of time."
"In order to get this thing, I spent more than 50 million!"
The two chatted for a while, and suddenly, Xu Pengyuan received a notification: "Hello, your order has been completed, please check."
"The order is completed!" Xu Pengyuan said in surprise. He immediately logged into Paradise Exchange and downloaded the data package uploaded by the hackers.
"This is the core game data of "Super Battlefield"? Can these hackers get this?" Feng Jin couldn't believe it. They used to run private servers and it was not so easy to buy data packages for other games.
"Can't the world's top hackers defeat them?" Xu Pengyuan said proudly, "No matter how they got it, it belongs to us now!"
He immediately called the company's technical director and asked him to check the contents of the data packet.
A few hours later, the technical director gave him a positive reply: "Mr. Xu, the data package does contain the core program of a gunfight mobile game."
"Hahahaha, God help me! This money is well spent!" Xu Pengyuan laughed.
"You are still insightful!" Feng Jin also beamed, "Now we are stable!"
"Immediately ask someone to copy this program and make a similar mobile game as quickly as possible! Do you understand?" Xu Pengyuan ordered.
"Yes, I will arrange for someone to start immediately!" The technical director nodded. They have done this kind of thing many times and are familiar with it.
The technical department of Xiaochong Network Entertainment Company has obtained the data package and started parsing and copying it.
"We can get this kind of thing, our boss is really powerful!" The technical director was still sighing in his heart, this game is a cash cow. If they make pirated games, they will definitely make a lot of money.
Just as he was feeling confused, a technician suddenly asked in confusion: "What's going on? My computer is stuck!"
"Mine too!" The colleague next to him also stopped at the same time, and his computer was no longer under control.
"No, there's a virus in the computer!" someone shouted.
"What's going on?" The technical director walked over and asked.
"Boss, it's bad, all our computers have been infected and can't be operated at all now!" reported the employee report.
"Poisoned? Are you kidding me? Will our computers be infected?" the technical director said in surprise, but he saw that all the computers in the company were inoperable.
"Boss, our game server has been shut down!" someone shouted.
"Oh my God, this virus is formatting our database!"
"Disconnect the Internet!" the technical director shouted.
"It doesn't work if it's disconnected! It doesn't work even if it's restarted, it can't be operated at all!"
"xx, I have never seen such a powerful virus." The technicians shouted one after another.
This virus is a forced program that, after intrusion, forcibly deletes all content on the computer. All information on their game servers and company systems will be completely deleted!
Disconnecting the Internet? It’s useless, because the virus has rewritten the computer program. Restarting won’t work either, unless they are willing to format the disk, but that’s what the virus is doing!
"It's over, all our mobile game servers have been forced to shut down!" Veins popped up on the technical director's forehead, and he knew that something was serious!
The sudden shutdown of the game server is a trivial matter. The most important thing is that their customer information has also been deleted. How many complaints from players will they face by then?
In the office, Xu Pengyuan and Feng Jin also discovered something was wrong. The computers in the office could not be used!
"What's going on? My computer is broken?" Xu Pengyuan was wondering when he saw the technical director running over in a hurry, with an anxious look on his face, "Mr. Xu, it's not good!"
"What's going on in a panic?" Xu Pengyuan asked.
"We were attacked by a Trojan virus, and now all the computers in the company are paralyzed! And all our data has been wiped out!" the technical director said with an ugly expression.
"What? Attacked by a virus?" Xu Pengyuan asked, "Can't you solve this problem?"
"This time it's not a simple virus!" the technical director explained. "Our firewall has been compromised without even detecting it! There is no way to solve it now. It is estimated that the data has been deleted!"
"Why is this happening?" Feng Jin stood up with an angry look on his face, "Ah? Why?"
"Are you all shit eaters?" Xu Pengyuan could no longer hold back and cursed.
"I guess... it should be a problem with that data packet." The technical director whispered, "Our company has never had any problems, but after parsing that data packet, the network was paralyzed."
"What? You mean there is a virus in the data packet?" Xu Pengyuan angrily smashed the water glass on the table to the ground, breaking it into a pile of glass fragments.
"Damn it, you are a bunch of idiots, they defrauded me of money and distributed viruses!" Xu Pengyuan was extremely angry. Not only did the company suffer huge losses this time, he also personally lost more than 50 million yuan in buying data packages.
"Why do you believe them?" Feng Jin was also filled with hatred, "Those are a group of guys who dare to do anything for money!"
"They guaranteed it! We bought our data packages there before, and this has never happened before! This is the first time!" Xu Pengyuan emphasized, "I want to ask them clearly! We can't lose it in vain!"
"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and think of a way to minimize the loss!" he yelled at the technical director.
The technical director hurriedly went to "find a way", but he racked his brain and couldn't think of any way. Now that the data has been deleted, can he still change it back?
Xu Pengyuan immediately entered the darknet and asked for an explanation.
"You must give me an explanation. After I downloaded the data package, I was invaded by a Trojan horse virus. Now the company's network is completely paralyzed and the data has been deleted. This time, I have lost at least 200 million!" he asked.
Soon, a person in charge of the other party, whose ID is Square Eight, replied: "Are you sure this is true? Are you sure it is caused by the data packet in the order?"
Xu Pengyuan said angrily: "Am I joking about this? Will you shut down your company if nothing happens? You must give me an explanation!"
Diamond Eight: "We need enough evidence. If it proves that there is a problem with the data package in the order, we will give you a certain amount of compensation."
Xu Pengyuan followed his request and uploaded some evidence.
The other party did not shirk this time, but said: "I need to report the situation to the superiors and will give you a reply within three days."
"I just want to know how you can deal with it?" Xu Pengyuan asked.
Eight of Diamonds: "If the information is verified, we will order the Shadow Bat Hacking Organization to return the full amount of your order, and we will give you one million as compensation."
"Then what if they don't pay it back?" Xu Pengyuan asked.
Eight of Diamonds: "We will deliver to you all the guarantee money they paid with us, plus our one million compensation. And we will punish them."
"Damn it!" Xu Pengyuan cursed. He knew that he would suffer heavy losses no matter what this time. If the other party dared to give him a data packet with a Trojan horse virus, he would not pay back the money. The one million compensation given to him by the dark network,
Compared to his losses, they are nothing to mention.
But he has no other channel to solve this matter. He can't call the police and say that he hired a hacker and was hacked, right? Then he may be the first one the police arrests.
Now Xu Pengyuan is a mute who eats Coptis chinensis and cannot express the pain.
"Hey, we are really bringing this upon ourselves!" Feng Jin sighed. From the day he started doing private servers and piracy, he had prepared for the company to close down at any time. But he didn't expect that for so many years, those big companies have failed to rely on it.
I filed a lawsuit against them, but today I fell down on a data packet!
