Chapter 975: Hacker Conference (Two More Collections)
The hacker conference started as scheduled.
And it happened to be the day of Independence Day.
On July 4, 1998, the world's first hacker conference began.
On this day, more than 1,000 hackers gathered in the professional ballroom of the MGM Hotel.
All the hackers wore their own hoods, black clothes, black pants and black leather shoes, and walked into the venue.
If it weren't for the difference in height and weight, you wouldn't be able to tell who's who.
In particular, everyone doesn't have their own screen name on the sign.
It's too obvious if it's a sign. That's not to admit yourself. These hackers, who wouldn't be so stupid, would do such a thing.
Naturally, five FBI agents also infiltrated the venue.
The usual black clothes, black pants and black leather shoes, with a brand new full set of monitoring equipment, entered the venue.
However, this scene also made the FBI a little blind.
This is how to distinguish the crowd. I don't know who's who.
In particular, hackers are mostly divided into two categories.
One type of skinny is caused by sitting in front of the computer for a long time and eating food that is not nutritious.
The other category is very obese. This is also caused by sitting in front of the computer, but they eat too much high-calorie food.
The kind of person with a very toned body, it's hard to find from hackers.
And these two kinds of people, mixed together, you can distinguish between fat and thin, and the rest, you really can't tell the difference.
"Collect all the communication information!" ordered the FBI agent behind the monitor.
Five agents, scattered across five special districts, utilize state-of-the-art equipment to monitor the entire venue.
Since you can't distinguish faces, it's better to take the voice first.
Let's compare them one by one in the future.
However, to the f.b.i.'s despair, when they took the voices, they found that everyone's voices were voice-changing.
Everyone was presented with a voice changer when they entered the venue.
This voice changer, as long as it is attached to the throat, can make the sound sound produce a different tone. This kind of recording, it's useless if you record it.
You can't tell the sound of a person by that. Even if the same person is using a voice changer and not using it, you can't tell what they say.
This simply makes the FBI desperate.
They never expected these hackers to be so cautious.
Of course, it's not these hackers who are cautious. In fact, these hackers originally only prepared face masks, and the rest were not prepared.
However, after Qin Feng knew that the FBI agents were going to fish in troubled waters, although Qin Feng personally hoped that the FBI would pay close attention, Qin Feng also did not want the identities of this group of hackers to be revealed.
Therefore, Qin Feng specially temporarily ordered black clothes, black pants and black shoes. Of course, because it was a temporary order, and I didn't know everyone's body size and shoe size, Qin Feng tried his best to prepare three sizes, small, medium, and large.
Of course, in doing so, there are very few people who are just right, and most people will wear it bigger. But in this way, it hides them even more.
At the same time, Qin Feng also prepared a voice changer.
This would give the FBI no idea what was going on.
At this moment, Wang Zhidong and his marketing director also mixed in. Faced with this scene, although they were very unhappy, they had to admit that Qin Feng was indeed very thoughtful here.
At this point, even if they went against their will, they had to admit that Qin Feng did a good job.
At this time, a man in black came to the stage.
Naturally, this man in black is a non-poet.
It's just that Tewupu also wears a mask, the same black clothes, black pants and black shoes, and a voice changer.
"Dear elites in the hacking community, this hacking conference was established today to honor the memory of Philip Katz, whose bravery gave us all the opportunity to use compression software for free. "So, we created this conference to commemorate him, and to create a conference to reward people who have made outstanding contributions to the hacker community every year." Because, as we all know, Philip Katz died of embarrassment in the end. His finances were in a very bad situation. And that's the case, I think, for most of us hackers. ”
These words speak to the hearts of many hackers.
It is true that many of them are not in a good situation.
Although it is said that it will not starve to death, it is indeed very unsatisfactory.
"Originally, Philip Katz wanted to hold an annual event with a prize of $100,000 each time for one of the most outstanding hackers of the year!" said Te Bupu.
"However, my partner, the mysterious Mr. Q, has decided to raise the prize pool, not only to increase the prize money for the most outstanding hackers, but also to increase the number of prizes!" ”
At this time, Qin Feng came to power.
The same black clothes, black pants, black leather shoes, and a mask.
No one can tell Qin Feng's identity.
"Hello colleagues. In terms of prize money, we have raised the annual bonus cap for the most outstanding individual hacker to $500,000 with the support of a mysterious consortium. At the same time, ten contribution awards will be set to determine 10 hackers with outstanding contributions. In addition, for those hackers who are more embarrassed, they will also be humanitarianized and subsidized. In this regard, all hackers can apply. However, the condition is that there must be a contribution to the hacking community. No matter how big or small the contribution is, there must be a contribution!"
These words were supported by applause from all hackers.
"Mr. Wang, do you say this is Qin Feng?" guessed the marketing director.
Wang Zhidong shook his head. He couldn't tell if it was Qin Feng or not.
After all, Qin Feng's height is very ordinary, and there are too many hackers here who are about the same height as Qin Feng. Everyone was dressed the same, and with the sound changer, it was completely indistinguishable.
"We held this conference for three days. Today is a showcase of skills in the hacker community, where everyone can show off their talents. And tomorrow, there will be a vote for the best hacker, as well as ten hackers for outstanding contributions. On the third day, it was a beauty pageant. Of course, the pageant is just a means to lighten the mood and let everyone relax, and in fact, on the afternoon of the third day, there will be something important to announce. Something that will directly change the entire hacking community. Qin Feng said.
What is it?
At this moment, the FBI is also nervous. They had long expected that nothing good would happen to this kind of hacker conference.
Something is finally about to happen, it seems.
What will happen on the third day?
"Keep an eye on this Q, you must find out his identity, and if necessary, you will not hesitate to take coercive measures!" the agent in front of the surveillance ordered.
However, when Qin Feng stepped down, the light suddenly flashed. In this flash, Qin Feng disappeared.
