At the Headquarter of 360 Digital Security, there was a high level meeting again and the topic was of course "Hypnos".

25 days had passed and there was still no solution about how to stop "Hypnos".

The expert team was working day and night but they were not able to crack the code of the virus.

The main reason was that there was no proper way to quarantine the virus and study it.

No matter what method they used, it ended up infecting the machines being used so the only way to study it was to read the data of infected machines and try to modify the firewall.

Chairman Wang was infuriated after hearing this report from the team.

"Why is there no solution for it, didn't you say 2-3 weeks ago that you would be able to solve this problem in a month, but now you are saying that you have only progressed 15 to 20 percent".

"Sir! It's not that we are not trying but that this virus is too powerful. We have infected 600+ machines of ours and because of that we were able to progress this much".

"I don't care how many resources you use, I need the solution for it and that's all I want to hear". Chairman said with a resolute tone.

Just when he was discussing this, the meeting room door opened and his secretary came in hurriedly.

Chairman Wang looked at his secretary and said with an angry expression.

"How many times have I told you not to disturb me when I am in a meeting? How many times should I tell you, even if a minister comes, tell him to wait?"

He said the last line because he knew a minister would never come without telling him first.

The secretary did not feel guilt and strode forward towards the Chairman, which made him even angrier.

"I will fire this piece of shit after this month". He thought in his mind.

Just as he thought about it, the secretary came closer to him and said something in his ear.

"What? Are you telling the truth?"

Upon seeing the expression of the chairman, all the experts that were sitting there felt confused because Mr. Wang's expression changed too fast and he had both a smile and a shocked expression on his face.

"Chen Jiao, come with me" having said that to his technical department head, Chairman Wang hurried went outside.

Chen Jiao quickly followed and went towards the office of the Chairman.

"Chen, I just received an email on my personal account. It was from a student and he stated that he had found a way to block "Hypnos from spreading."

"What? " Chen Jiao's reaction was same as the chairman.

"Are you serious chairman? He could be bluffing"

"No.!" Chairman replied in a serious voice.

"He sent a tool with his email and my secretary just used it and it really can block the virus"

Having said that, he gave the tool to Chen and told him to give him a final answer within an hour.

In the dormroom of Fenghua University.

Fu Yan was sitting in front of his computer and waiting for the reply from 360 Security.

He gave them an hour and half and told them in his email that he will contact other companies if they did not reply in that time limit.

He knew that if he gave them time they might crack the software and he would lose money, so he set a time limit because he had confidence in his programming skills.

Whoever wanted to crack his software would need 2 to 3 days and he will have signed a contract with other companies in that time frame.

An hour had passed and there was still a half hour remaining, suddenly there was a notification tone and he had received a reply from 360 Digital Security.

They wanted to know his contact information and finalize the deal.

He gave them his number and he received a call within a minute.

"Hello is this Mr. Fu?" asked the voice on the phone."

"Yes I am." Fu Yan answered in a calm tone.

"Well Mr. Fu we have seen your software and we want to buy it. Can you tell us your price?"

Y"es. I want 60 Million and if the deal is not finalized within half a day, I will contact other companies."

"No No. Mr. Fu you don't have to. We will send our representative immediately. Can you tell us where we can meet you?"

"I am in city C. can you come and meet me now at the JM Hotel."

"Of course Mr. Fu we can. We will meet you in2 hours at the hotel. Have a nice day"

Chairman Wang immediately booked a flight for the city C and took Chen Jiao with him.

Fu Yan felt elated because he was about to earn 60 million. It was an amount he would never even have thought about before getting the Galactic Library.

2 hours later.

Fu Yan was sitting with 2 middle aged men in the lobby of JM hotel.

"Mr. Fu I am the chairman of 360 Digital Security and this the director of our technical department, Chen Jiao. It's so nice to meet you."

"It's nice to meet you too Mr.?"

"Mr. Wang" Chairman Wang answered.

"Well Mr. Wang, I think you know my terms. Have you prepared the contract and money?"

"Of course Mr. Fu! We have prepared the money and contract but we think that the price is a bit high don't you think?"

"I know that the price is higher but you have to see the bigger picture. Only you will have the Anti-virus for "Hypnos" and your customers will grow by a huge number."

"But Mr Fu. You know that we are a free software company, and we don't charge customers so if you see it this way the price is a bit much"

"No the price will remain the same but I can give you the exclusive right for this software and you can use it however you want."

Hearing this Chairman Wang smiled.

"Well that is nice. This way I can agree to the price tag but I want to know how did you develop this software"

Wang was suspecting that Fu Yan was related to "Hypnos" and his worry was genuine because even his elite team was not able to crack the virus and this kid did.

"If Mr. Wang suspects that I am related to "Hypnos" then you don't have to worry."

"I did not create this software after "Hypnos", but it was created when I was learning about network security 3 months ago. It was an anti-virus for my own use. After the "Hypnos" event I noticed that my firewall was able to block the virus so I modified it a bit and selling it to you now."

"Oh that's the reason but I think it's not luck it's skill so Mr. Fu would you like to work for my company. I can guarantee a salary of a million annually. What do you think?"

"Sorry but I want to study first then work."

"Well that's regrettable but i hope that you can come work for us. anyway should we sign the contract?"

After that Fu Yan read the contract carefully and signed it.

He kept one copy for himself and the other one was taken by Mr Wang.

He gave them the flash drive that contained the source code for the anti-virus and after Chen Jiao checked for a while, he nodded.

"The Money will transfer shortly into your account Mr Fu. If you ever want to work with us my offer will be valid anytime"

With that both went outside to hurry back to their office and prepare for the release of the new anti-virus.

Chen Jiao was truly convinced of the skills of Fu Yan because the Code was written very carefully and it was well organized.

If one wanted to know how skillful and good a programmer is, just check the code he writes and if it's easy to understand then that person is a great programmer.

He also wanted Fu Yan to work for them but they did not know that the creator of the virus and its anti-virus were the same guy.
