Chapter 1338: Millennial Insect Crisis

The date of the listing of 666 Company was set, and it was set on Wednesday, January 5, 2000.

Listing is a great event, of course, you have to check the old yellow calendar.

The first and second days of January are both weekends, so they can only be scheduled later.

On the third day of January, it is not appropriate to take anything else, and on the fourth day, it is not suitable to open the market and trade, which is a big taboo for businessmen, so it was decided to go on the market on January 5th.

The bell of the new millennium is ringing!

On January 1, 2000, Yeltsin announced his resignation from the presidency of Russia and the transfer of power to Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.

Compared with the accession to the throne of Putin, the broad masses of the people are more concerned about the issue of millennium insects.

Fortunately, on this day, the "millennium bug" that many people feared, when the millennium came, except for the Gambia, all countries had a smooth transition and no major problems occurred.

The millennium bug is a very primitive mistake.

When computers were invented, the year 2000 was very early, and storage was very expensive, so in order to save resources, the year was represented by the last two digits.

The year 1999 is counted as 99 years.

People were horrified to find out what if it was 2000?

Does the system record 00 years?

Although the RTC-real-time system clock uses four digits to represent the year, the century information of the first two digits of the year data, such as "19", "20", etc., is not related to the last two digits, that is, when the last two digits change from "99" to "00", the first two digits cannot be advanced to change the first two digits from "19" to "20".

Thus, the next year of 1999 in the RTC should be 1900, raising the 2000 question.

There are fears that by the year 2000, the bank's computers may interpret 2000 as 1900, causing confusion in interest calculations, or even automatically erasing all records, and that ATMs will reject "00" ATM cards.

The insurance company may miscalculate the number of years of each policy.

Someone made a three-minute call at 23:59 on December 31, 1999, but the phone office bill might show "-100 years + 3 minutes".

The Inland Revenue Department's computer may think that you have been in arrears for 100 years and send you an astronomical notice of back tax.

Due to the failure of the computer controlling the radar, air traffic control was completely paralyzed and the flight was grounded.

The Hawaiian Electric Company of the United States once conducted an actual experiment, entered 00 years, and as a result, the power plant automatically stopped operating.

The US Federal Nuclear Regulatory Office is even more worried that the equipment in more than 100 nuclear power plants in the United States will be out of control due to the problem in 2000, causing disasters such as nuclear radiation leakage.

......

In the years leading up to the year 2000, some governments and corporations spent untold sums of money to solve the millennium bug problem.

At the same time, the horrific predictions of the Millennium Bug cost many companies, agencies, schools, shops, and ordinary citizens hundreds of millions of dollars to avert the impending catastrophe of 2000.

At the moment of passing zero, many people were mixed and excited.

What happened next made everyone a little disappointed because their expectations were too high.

The millennium worm did not look like the end of the world as we had predicted, and we did not even hear the news of a major disaster.

On the contrary, it is the boys who use the gimmick of the millennium to make many girls complete a certain growth transformation on this day.

After all, it's a millennium!

You can only encounter it once in a thousand years.

Two people can be lucky enough to cross together, what else can't be done?

On the day of the millennium, Yang Fei was not romantic.

Su Tong was pregnant, and her belly was as big as a day, so she could only recuperate at home in Peach Blossom Village.

Chen Mo and Ning Xin are both preparing to go public in Shanghai.

And Chen Ruoling, in order to deal with the upcoming battle of Gaoyi, is preparing intensively, and the two of them have not even talked on the phone for a long time in order to avoid suspicion.

On the surface, the Chen family wants to maintain cooperation with the Gao family, and the two of them are "plotting" how to deal with Yang Fei!

Yang Fei is not idle, because his huge business empire is also suffering from the Millennium Bug Crisis!

Although Yang Fei had known for a long time that the so-called millennium worm would not have much impact.

However, he also knows that at the dawn of the new millennium, many old-fashioned computers will indeed have problems of one kind or another.

The Millennium Bug Incident in 2000, a vulnerability that paralyzed almost all electronic devices, also caused the Beauty Group to encounter unprecedented hecticism.

No panic, just hustle and bustle!

The computer system of the Beauty Group was also damaged by vulnerabilities, and there were failures of one kind or another.

This global loophole is not something that Yang Fei alone can avoid.

The millennium bug problem is a major event at the turn of the old and new centuries.

This incident is a good lesson for humanity, as well as for the field of computing or technology.

Before 2000, Yang Fei was prepared, led the technical personnel, and nervously backed up all the computers in the group.

Therefore, on the first day of January, all the computers of the beautiful group were turned on normally, and the data was cleaned and repaired, and the information department was asked not to relax its vigilance to prevent the millennium bug from causing chaos again.

As Yang Fei expected, on the morning of the 3rd, the computers in the group broke down again one after another, and when they asked the software supplier company for help, they found that they had received the news that the databases of more than 100 companies had been paralyzed, and they suspected that this was the "millennium bug" at work again.

The Millennium Bug not only attacked the computer, but also caused the stock trading machine to strike and empty the phone number in the electronic notepad!

After three days of intense prevention and restoration, all the information work of the group finally returned to normal.

On the fourth of January, Yang Fei flew to Shanghai.

In order to witness the magical moment of the company's listing, Su Tong didn't care about the inconvenience of having a big belly, so he insisted that Yang Fei take it to the provincial capital and go to Shanghai with him.

Sitting on the plane, Su Tong asked: "Yang Fei, didn't you say that the two private planes you bought will be delivered at the end of the year?

Yang Fei smiled: "I asked them to delay the delivery." The millennium bug problem will also affect the operation and control of the aircraft, so I think it will not be too late for me to receive the goods after this hurdle is over, and when they have solved all the relevant problems. ”

Su Tong said: "That's okay, anyway, I can't take too many planes now." ”

Yang Fei laughed and said, "You, what you think is this?"

Su Tong said: "Of course, can I not sit on the plane you bought?"

Yang Fei held her hand tightly and said, "I wanted to spend Chinese New Year's Eve with you, but I didn't expect to be entangled in the thousand-year-old bug problem for a few days." ”

Su Tong said: "For us, which day is not the millennium? As long as you are here, I will be like the New Year every day." ”

Jiang Xiaojia and Chu Xiu, who were sitting next to them, lowered their heads and talked, glancing at Yang Fei and Su Tong from time to time.

Yang Fei knew that the two of them must be chewing on the root of their tongues, and they didn't bother to pay attention.

The plane rose to an altitude of 10,000 meters and drove smoothly for a while, when suddenly there was a strong turbulence!

The passengers on the plane were all nervous.

Su Tong said: "Yang Fei, won't it be another thousand-year-old insect?"

Yang Fei shook his head and said comfortingly, "It's okay." The flight attendant said just now, it's just a strong air current. ”

As he spoke, the plane shook violently again!

The passengers let out one screamer after another!

No matter how the flight attendants explained, some people were still panicked, and some elderly people shouted: "Give me pen and paper, I want to write my last words!"

The shouts of the old man intensified the panic of the passengers......
