After hearing the news, Le Zhengming hurried into the studio with his staff.
Everyone's expressions were solemn, anxious, and helpless. It’s not just the live broadcast platforms that were hacked, but their campaign networks, and this data stream is directed and has a clear target. That is to say, no matter which live broadcast platform they switch to, the data tsunami will follow.
They have been besieged by violent waves and become an island.
To use a more vivid analogy, if Le Zhengming's private network is a building, then all the entrances and exits of the building are blocked by cement, so that people inside cannot get out, and people outside cannot enter. This is the predicament they are currently facing.
Le Zhengming's first campaign speech seemed to be blocked before it even started.
Only Zhuang Li lowered his head and looked at the computer screen, and his fingers quickly danced on the keyboard without being disturbed in the slightest.
"Don't worry, the live broadcast will not be affected." He explained without looking back: "It's a botnet. Hackers drop Trojans around the world and use these programs to install malware on smart devices. Smart devices do not behave abnormally in normal operation, but as long as the hacker sends commands to wake up these devices, they will automatically send data to attack the designated website."
“The infected devices may be in the thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions. And they can be computers, digital video recorders, routers, CCTVs, even smart door locks, smart water heaters And so on. As long as it is a device with intelligence, it may be infected by malicious programs, and it will radiate out at an extremely fast speed and a huge area like a zombie virus. Therefore, this kind of controlled network is also called a botnet. ."
"It's Zhu Jianrui." Zhuang Li said firmly: "I tested it just now, and the attack flow has always remained at 540Gbps, and the highest peak has reached 940Gbps. Such a high value can only be achieved by controlling 200,000 smart devices at the same time. Except me, only Zhu Jianrui has this ability."
"The military installed a surveillance chip for him, and he should not have access to the computer." An aide said in disbelief.
"I'll search for his signal and see where he is." Zhuang Li quickly tapped the keyboard.
"What now?" Another staff member asked anxiously.
"You go outside to memorize the manuscript and start your speech at eight o'clock. I won't let you be late." Zhuang Li took time to look at Le Zhengming with a soothing tone in his tone.
"Okay." Le Zhengming wanted to rub his hairy head, but he could only hold back in front of everyone.
He also comforted: "Don't be under pressure. If I can't solve it, I will hold a press conference to apologize to the general public. This is not your problem."
Both of them took heavy responsibilities on themselves, and they were also afraid that the other would not be able to withstand the pressure.
They looked at each other, hooked their lips tacitly, and then went about their own business, giving each other their backs completely. This trust seems to be rooted in the bones.
Le Zhengming returned to the studio to recite the manuscript, and sometimes picked up a pen to seriously revise some sentences.
However, his staff couldn't sit still and walked into the studio one after another to watch Zhuang Li's counterattack.
How to find out 200,000 hacked smart devices? They could be computers, cameras, routers, whatever, and they might not even have an IP address! They may be distributed in China, or anywhere in the United States, Y, R, H, etc.!
They will be scattered in every corner of the world, but Zhuang Li has to find them all and close them one by one in just twenty minutes.
The sheer difficulty of the job made the scalps of these self-proclaimed ingenious staff tingle just to contemplate it in their heads.
"Impossible! It's impossible! Master, you've lost this time, alas~" 7480 sighed in Zhuang Li's mind.
It dragged the tail very far, as if to regret the host's first failure.
Zhuang Li asked casually, "How do you know it's impossible?"
"Find 200,000 devices in 20 minutes, and do a simple multiplication and division, which means that you have to find 10,000 devices every minute, which is simply impossible! What's more scary is that you are finding them. They also have to be turned off. Breaking a minute into sixty seconds, sixty seconds into sixty thousand milliseconds is not enough for you. In one millisecond you can't type a single letter, let alone write long strings of code to attack those zombie devices."
7480 said more and more excitedly, and asserted: "Master, you are finished! Confess defeat to Destiny Child!"
"Son of Destiny?" Zhuang Li keenly grasped a key point.
The complacent 7480 can't wait to slap himself.
Zhuang Li said clearly: "So, Zhu Jianrui is the one chosen by the Lord God to plunder Le Zhengming's luck and replace him as the pillar of the world?"
7480 raised his short fat hand and slapped his mouth.
Zhuang Li hooked his lips with interest: "Okay, I understand. Next, I will take good care of this child of destiny, please rest assured your Lord God."
7480 knelt down, clutching his chest. It can't be reassured at all, can it? It has a heart disease!
Sure enough, as Zhuang Li tapped the keyboard, he whispered like a demon: "Who said I have to find these devices one by one and turn them off? All I need to do is catch the hacker behind the scenes and destroy his computer, and I can do it in the shortest time possible. resolve this crisis in time.”
7480 stared nervously at the host's computer, lest he defeat Destiny Child, but exaggeratedly relieved after a while: "Aha! You found Zhu Jianrui! But he stayed in the studio and didn't touch the computer at all. What are you going to do now, master?
"Out of the 200,000 devices, only one is the controller. How can you identify it? There are only 29 minutes left, master, come on, master!" 7480 jumped up and down in the small dark room, cheerful and arrogant Incredibly.
Zhuang Li stared at Zhu Jianrui with his eyes closed in the small window, smiled strangely, and then switched to another tracking program to continue the search.
Two minutes later, he chuckled and said, "System, you seem to have forgotten the black and white ghost card that I hid last time? If Zhu Jianrui needs help, who do you think he will turn to?"
7480: "…"
Heart, heart suddenly feels so painful! The man in the little window is Mima! He's unleashing a data tsunami! The six computers placed in front of him were falling into a black screen one by one, and his hands quickly danced with afterimages on the keyboard, but he couldn't turn the tide at all!
He was found by the host, crushed, defeated!
Last time, it wasn't that the host had forgotten him, but he deliberately left a way out for him, and at the same time installed a secret door beside Zhu Jianrui. As long as there is a need, the host can pass this secret door and insert the knife into Zhu Jianrui's back. The host understood everything so long ago, and his mind is really terrible!
7480 once again fell into despair.
Zhuang Li tapped the Enter key lightly and murmured, "It's done."
He easily ended the data tsunami. On his computer screen, the only remaining black and white ghost card was turned over. A man with half-length hair and heavy makeup was frantically smashing the keyboard and mouse. His originally handsome face was now hideous.
At the same time, Le Zhengming's staff were shouting one after another: "My computer can log in!"
"Me too!"
"It's normal, it's normal! Everyone is in your place! The live broadcast is about to start!"
The ecstatic crowd looked up at the timing board, only to find that there were still twenty-seven minutes left. That is to say, such a big data tsunami was solved by Mr. Zhuang in just a few minutes!
"Mr. Zhuang, I'm very glad that you joined our team. Thank you, thank you!" The staff around him stepped forward to shake hands with Zhuang Li, all feeling fearful in their hearts. What would have happened if they had insisted on rejecting Mr. Zhuang's admission?
Think of those powerful viruses and Trojan horses; think of those espionage devices that are hard to guard; think of this cyber attack again. Everyone could not help but shudder.
Without Mr. Zhuang, they would definitely lose!
Zhuang Li waved his hands and said, "Go down and prepare. I still have work to do."
"Okay, you are busy, you are busy." The staff wiped their cold sweat and exited the studio.
Zhuang Li opened a control software in the background of the computer, and slowly woke up the botnet he had arranged beside Zhu Jianrui. Yes, he also made the same arrangement, and the time was much earlier than the other party.
---
At the same moment, Zhu Jianrui, who was sitting in the studio, suddenly received a call. He put down the puppy in his arms, looked at the caller ID, and walked towards the corner with few people. His expression was originally looking forward to it, but it became extremely stiff after it was connected.
The puppy walked around him, rubbing his little body against his calf, but couldn't get his attention at all.
Gong Xuanqi, who was sitting on the side revising the speech, asked casually, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Zhu Jianrui gritted his teeth secretly, not daring to show the slightest panic. However, in fact, he was already panicking, and his eyelids were twitching nervously.
Gong Xuanqi looked up at his nephew with suspicion and scrutiny in his eyes. Such a tiny expression, he still found it.
Zhu Jianrui began to inhale hard, exhale hard, his chest up and down, as if a bomb was hidden. The bomb was about to explode. He held it back for a long time before he uttered a sentence with strong resentment: "Zhuang Li cut off my botnet."
"So fast?" Gong Xuanqi showed a surprised expression, and then ordered: "Then ask your assistant to attack again."
"It's impossible to launch another attack. He cut off all my data streams. I completely lost contact with those devices. It would take a month to rebuild a botnet. It's too late." Zhu Jianrui held the phone tightly, using The tone of gnashing hatred admits another failure of his own.
Gong Xuanqi silently commented on the name "Zhuang Li", which once seemed insignificant to him, and his heart was indescribable. If he had known that the other party was the world's top hacker, he would never have allowed his younger brother to destroy his family, thus causing the current situation.
He looked at Zhu Jianrui, whose face was gray and distorted, and couldn't bear the blow of failure, and sighed in his heart: I really lost a lot of money by picking sesame seeds and losing watermelon.
"Forget it, this time is unsuccessful and there will be another time. Let's prepare for the live broadcast." Gong Xuanqi rubbed his nephew's head, his tone was kind, and his expression was gentle, as if he didn't mind at all.
"Okay, I'll help you read the manuscript." Zhu Jianrui picked up the puppy and forced a smile, but there was overwhelming pain hidden in his pupils.
I lost to Zhuang Li again! Why? Why? He repeatedly asked himself in his heart, and gradually fell into a daze.
The chrono board counts down one minute and one second.
With the last minute left, Gong Xuanqi placed the manuscript on the podium and looked at a camera directly in front of him with eyes full of love.
The chief director raised his hand and waited silently. When eight o'clock came, he would put his hands down and turn the live footage to the whole country to watch, so his eyes couldn't leave the clock for a second.
Everyone was looking at him, including Zhu Jianrui.
"Live broadcast starts!" The chief director put his hand down, and the footage captured by the camera was transmitted to the network at high speed with a delay of 1 millisecond.
Gong Xuanqi's elegant and handsome face appeared in the live broadcast room, and as soon as he showed a warm smile, he completely disappeared into the dark screen. He's dropped!
Damn, he dropped the call for such an important speech? Is his team eating shit? Make no mistake, this is a presidential campaign, not a star draft! Even a star draft will not have such a low-level live broadcast accident! It's so unprofessional!
All netizens have such thoughts. They kept logging in, they kept failing, and the black screen hung in front of them as if they were dead. Some people try to log in once or twice and then give up, others persist for a few minutes and finally have to give up.
Instead, they flocked to Le Zhengming's live broadcast room to watch the presidential candidate's speech, and were surprised to find out - Huh? He seems to be pretty good too! She looks so majestic in a military uniform!
No one knows what kind of chaos Gong Xuanqi's team is in.
Chapter 75 The Story of Pan Man 25 ┃ Zhu Jianrui: Did I do so much just to show Zhuang Li a joke?
Gong Xuanqi, who always calculated others and succeeded many times, never thought that he would encounter the same situation. He was calculated, and on such an important occasion!
He tried his best to show a relaxed and kind smile, and waved to the overworked staff: "Don't worry, take your time, it's just a temporary equipment failure, it will be fixed soon. Why don't we change to a live broadcast room? ?"
The staff said in cold sweat: "All the live broadcast rooms can't get on, and the server of the live broadcast platform is not responding."
Gong Xuanqi's smile was a little stiff, but he still maintained his approachable demeanor: "Then change to a live broadcast platform."
The staff quickly connected to another live broadcast platform.
For these official people, the boss of the live broadcast platform naturally did not dare to refuse. One second he agreed with fear, but the next second he panicked and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we can't log in to the live broadcast room here!"
Gong Xuanqi waved his hand decisively: "Change again!"
The staff expressed their gratitude and apology to the boss, and regrettably canceled the cooperation. However, before they hung up the phone, the boss said in surprise, "It seems to be able to log in normally now."
"Then let's start straight..."
Before the staff finished speaking, the boss said again: "I dropped the line, I dropped the line, and now I can't log in again! What the **** is going on with the server today, it's really strange."
The staff realized something, thanked him again, and insisted on canceling the cooperation. They dare not use such an unstable platform.
Soon, they found another live broadcast platform. Just after reaching a cooperation agreement, the server there was also paralyzed. After canceling the cooperation, it immediately returned to normal. This happened several times in a row, as if an invisible ghost was watching Gong Xuanqi's team closely, and then sabotaged their plans first.
Wherever they went, the ghost closed the door and cut off the road, leaving them with no way to enter and no way to go.
Such a ruthless means, such a precise retaliation, seems to be a repeat of the MIK incident.
"It was Zhuang Li's DDOS attack. I called Jiang Yi and asked him to turn off the monitoring chip for me. I'll try to see if I can hack Zhuang Li's computer." Zhu Jianrui said through gritted teeth.
Gong Xuanqi was not surprised by this conclusion, but nodded solemnly.
Zhu Jianrui struggled for a long time before continuing: "Our team has been monitored by him. He can immediately know what we do and say, otherwise he will not strike us with such precision."
Gong Xuanqi's pupils trembled, and for the first time he showed a horrified expression. He knew that Zhuang Li's technology was better than Zhu Jianrui's, and he knew that he was probably the most powerful hacker in the world, but knowing it was knowing it, and experiencing it personally was another matter.
It's a completely different feeling when the hacker is thousands of miles away and knows everything he's doing, thwarting his every campaign, and even cutting off all his escape routes.
Gong Xuanqi, who has always liked to play with people's palms, knew for the first time how torment, pain, anxiety, and panic to be played with people's palms.
He couldn't keep the fake smile on his face any longer, and said coldly, "What did you do? We were monitored, why didn't you find out at all? Find out his monitoring methods and destroy them! Quick!"
Zhu Jianrui did not dare to refute a word, so he speeded up the negotiation with Jiang Yi. However, only he himself knew how strong the frustration and humiliation in his heart was at this moment.
Gong Xuanqi also began to worry. Before that, he didn't even pay attention to the character Zhuang Li at all.
Zhu Jianrui's monitoring chip was remotely shut down by Jiang Yi. He immediately took the puppy at his feet into his arms and prevented it from walking around casually, then turned on his computer and threw himself into this war without gunpowder smoke.
He has an urgent desire for revenge and destruction in his heart, but he has no ability to control such ambition.
He launched an attack on the overlapping firewalls, and after ten minutes passed, he didn't even break through the first layer, and a lot of cold sweat fell on his forehead.
Gong Xuanqi leaned over to look at his computer, but saw a line of bright red text jumping out on the screen—【Hello, kid. 】
There is no doubt that this is a greeting from Zhuang Li. When Zhu Jianrui gritted his teeth and tried his best here, he greeted him easily over there, which shows what kind of gap there is between the two people's levels.
In Zhuang Li's eyes, the highly skilled Zhu Jianrui is just a "child".
Zhu Jianrui's hand trembled as he frantically tapped the keyboard, so he wrote a few lines of code wrong, causing his own system to collapse.
Gong Xuanqi looked at the computer screen that kept flashing "Warning", and finally scolded the words that had been in his heart for a long time, "Useless trash!"
He straightened his waist, never looked at Zhu Jianrui again, and quickly ordered to his team: "You all immediately post on my personal website, saying that I am unwell and have to cancel this speech. Xiao Tan, take me to the hospital. , the news team followed to take pictures."
Realizing that he had been rejected, Zhu Jianrui was completely frozen in place, and the extreme pain and panic made him unable to type a single letter.
He tried to do something to show his importance, to ensure that he was still useful to the Gong family, but the blank brain completely lost the ability to think. Recalling the life that Zhuang Li took care of as an ordinary child, and compared to the hypocritical family that only exchanges interests, he suddenly realized that the road under his feet did not seem to be full of flowers, but full of thorns.
He sat blankly in front of the computer, looking at the message full of ridicule—【Hello, kid. 】
I'm not good! It drives me crazy! Zhuang Li, is this what you want?
Zhu Jianrui slowly hugged his head, lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and let out a scream like a trapped beast. The puppy lying in his arms also groaned.
At this moment, the press officer who followed Gong Xuanqi to the entrance of the studio suddenly exclaimed: "Mr. Gong is not good, and our personal website can't be listed!"
"What did you say?" Gong Xuanqi stopped abruptly and growled in a low voice: "Change an account or change a mobile phone, hurry up!"
All of them know that every minute and every second is now more precious than gold. Absenteeism has become an established fact. If the campaign team cannot make a reasonable explanation to the public as soon as possible, this incident will become a thorn in the heart of every voter who supports Gong Xuanqi.
Their dissatisfaction and distrust will slowly build up in their hearts and become an internal drive to abstain from voting in the future. No one knows when this driving force will strike, but as long as it exists, it is dangerous to Gong Xuanqi.
The presidential campaign is like a life-and-death battle, and any small link can determine success or failure.
"Did you board?" Gong Xuanqi asked with a pale face.
"Login, can't log in. Our website server is down. All of our mobile phones can't be used, and so are our computers." The press officer said in a cold sweat.
Everyone's mobile phones and computers can't be used, which means that they have become an isolated island, completely isolated from the prosperity outside, what they want to say cannot be transmitted to the outside world, and the information that the outside world sends back to them is also blocked. They are now in a state of nowhere and nowhere to go.
Information technology has brought a lot of convenience to human beings, but it has also caused human beings to fall into a situation where it is difficult to move an inch without them. At this moment, Gong Xuanqi wanted to live broadcast, but the pictures couldn't get out; he wanted to apologize, but the information couldn't get out; he wanted to make a show, but there was no platform for him to show.
He took out a handkerchief from the inner pocket of his suit, and calmly wiped his forehead, barely keeping his voice steady: "Contact the radio station and see if we can make a broadcast apology."
However, broadcasting stations have been gradually replaced by more advanced information technology. Its audience is very small, except for drivers driving on the road, probably no one is idle to listen to the babble of a black box. This means that most people will not be able to know Gong Xuanqi's apology in time.
But this is no way out.
The press officer said timidly: "Mr. Gong, all of our mobile phones can't be used. I can only use other people's mobile phones to call the radio station. This will lead to security loopholes. Do you agree?"
"Don't we have security holes when we use our own mobile phones?" Gong Xuanqi asked with red eyes. At the same time, his cold eyes swept to Zhu Jianrui, who was still sitting in front of the computer.
Everyone also looked at Zhu Jianrui, with doubts and even complaints in their eyes.
There is no doubt that their internal network was built by this talented teenager, and he once boasted that it would never be breached.
The words are still in my ears, but the reality has completely flipped. The so-called genius boy is just like that.
The press officer hurried outside and borrowed a mobile phone from the staff of the live broadcast platform. But she apparently forgot that radio stations now also have a lot of computer equipment, which means they too will be paralyzed by the data tsunami.
Ten minutes later, the press officer came back, and the expression on his face had changed from anxiety to despair. She bit her lower lip and shook her head at Gong Xuanqi, not daring to say a word.
Gong Xuanqi tried to appease the employee with a gentle and loving smile, but he couldn't even pull the corners of his mouth. His elegant and handsome face was as stiff as a stone at the moment, and the heaviness of the powerless struggle weighed on his heart, making him almost suffocate.
He sat on the chair slowly, pressing the soles of his feet against the ground to prevent his legs from shaking uncontrollably, then waved his hands, wanting to say something, but his throat was constantly tightening, but he lost the ability to speak. He has a prominent family background, outstanding ability, and he can succeed in whatever he wants, almost step by step, and he has reached the pinnacle of his life smoothly.
However, when he stretched out his hand to grab the ultimate victory, he was tripped over by an ant that was overlooked under his feet. This scene was ridiculous!
He could never have imagined that provoking this ant would cause so many troubles. But he could have avoided it all. As long as the younger brother is not allowed to destroy Zhuang Li's family, as long as Zhu Jianrui is not brought back...
Thinking like this, Gong Xuanqi looked at Zhu Jianrui who was sitting in front of the computer, his eyes were cold to the bone.
Zhu Jianrui was horrified, and immediately begged: "Uncle, I'll help you find a way. Just wait patiently for a while, don't worry."
He must not be given up by the Gong family! Otherwise what is he doing so much for?
Is it to show Zhuang Li a joke?
