"I remember when your company designed this system, you said that the security module of the system is the most advanced in the world, and after delivery, we have been using it very well, and there has never been any major hacking incidents, why suddenly upgrade the strategic engine of the soft alliance?" asked the blonde foreigner.

"In order to provide customers with better security services, OTE spent a lot of money to purchase the development license of the strategic engine from SoftAlliance. But rest assured, this upgrade is completely free, so you don't have to spend a dime to experience a policy-level security experience. Dai Zhiqiang thought that the blonde foreigner was worried about spending money again.

"Money isn't a problem, it's just ......," the blonde foreigner groaned, not speaking.

Of course, Smith next to him understood what he meant, and said: "Mr. Dai, the strategic level of the soft alliance is better, but after all, it was not developed and designed by your company yourself, and you can't know the root cause, will there be any problems in the run-in with the whole system?"

"No, we have gone through rigorous testing, and after adopting the strategy-level engine, not only the security performance can be improved by more than 80%, but the stability and execution efficiency of the system can also be increased by more than 20%!" Dai Zhiqiang smiled, "The strategy-level engine of SoftAlliance is really a good thing, and there are many things that can be done, not only in terms of security." ”

Dai Zhiqiang didn't say that it was okay, this statement was simply stimulating the blonde foreigner and Smith, such a good thing, but he couldn't get it, and now he had to hide.

"This ......," Smith was a little embarrassed, "can we postpone our upgrade date a little longer, there have been two failures in a row recently, the normal operation of the company has been greatly affected, if the system is interrupted at this time for upgrading, I am afraid that there will be some negative impact." ”

"Whatever you want!" Dai Zhiqiang shook his head with a smile, "You are God, and God will notify us when he decides!"

"Mr. Dai, I have a very layman's question!" the blonde foreigner suddenly looked at Dai Zhiqiang, "You just said that the strategic engine can do a lot of things, can you talk about it specifically?"

"I also remembered what to say, in fact, it is not so easy to let the strategic engine do other things, you need to be very familiar with the lowest part of the strategic level, but unfortunately this part of the soft alliance has not been made public, and we have only obtained a small part of the information. The strategy-level logic judgment part is one of the most advanced technologies I've ever seen, which can make some simple anthropomorphic logic analysis and judgments, and if this technology is used in AI development, decision-making systems, or process optimization, it will have a greater future. ”

The blonde foreigner nodded, as if he had made up his mind, "Thank you, Mr. Dai, for your answer! By the way, our system can't always be defeated by the virus, can Mr. Dai give us some advice on prevention?"

"The best advice is actually you have it yourself!" Dai Zhiqiang smiled.

"Uh......" Both of them were a little stunned.

"I see that there are security rules posted on the wall at the door of your computer room, and I think this is the best advice!" Dai Zhiqiang said after a pause, and said: "In addition, your anti-virus software is not good, it is a big brand of products, but the implementation efficiency is low, there are a lot of missed kills and false negatives, it is a product on a technical platform that is about to be eliminated, I suggest that you replace it with better anti-virus software, which can effectively prevent the invasion of viruses." ”

"Mr. Dai, can you recommend one?" Smith looked at Dai Zhiqiang.

"We are not involved in the field of anti-virus, and we only have a general understanding of this aspect, so we really don't have any right to speak!" Dai Zhiqiang did not recommend, he didn't want to get into trouble because of his words.

"Mr. Dai is too humble, even if you recommend it, as for whether to adopt it in the end, we have to make our own decisions!" The blonde foreigner said this, that is, even if there is a problem in the future, it has nothing to do with Dai Zhiqiang.

"Since I have to say it, then I'll say a few!" Dai Zhiqiang seemed to recall before saying: "Now a new anti-virus technology in the world is active defense, a new anti-virus method that combines virus pattern judgment and virus behavior analysis, which will become the mainstream technology in the future, on this platform, the world's major anti-virus manufacturers have launched their own products, and it is not difficult to find such a product!"

Both the blonde foreigner and Smith looked at Dai Zhiqiang, waiting for him to continue.

Dai Zhiqiang paused, "In fact, these products are similar in performance, if I choose by myself, I will choose one from Syman Iron Shell, ESET and Yicheng Software, comparatively speaking, Yicheng Software's active anti-killing technology is more mature, and the anti-killing efficiency is higher, but the disadvantage is that they are a small brand and do not have a decent set of global anti-virus monitoring network, so they have to suffer some losses in the prevention and killing of existing viruses." But fortunately, they have been merged into the soft alliance, with the support of the soft alliance, the formation of a more powerful anti-virus monitoring network is also just around the corner, who will win and who will lose in the future, who can dominate the global anti-virus market, it is really difficult to say. ”

When the blonde foreigner and Smith heard the word "soft alliance", their heads were wooden, and what Dai Zhiqiang said later, they couldn't hear it very clearly, this is really fate, no matter what they do, they can always have something to do with the soft alliance, they feel like they have entered a labyrinth at this time, there are thousands of soft alliances standing in front of them, and they can't find an exit when they go around.

However, what surprised them was not over, Dai Zhiqiang's later words really made them collapse, "However, Yicheng Software has handed over the marketing to the soft alliance to do, and their products are currently only stable in the domestic market in China, without the slightest intention of entering the international market, and even follow the previous practice of the soft alliance to kill the piracy that flows out of the country." If you want to purchase their products, you probably have to negotiate with SoftAlliance. ”

As soon as Dai Zhiqiang finished speaking, his mobile phone rang a few times, he picked it up and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Okay, we have received the money, I am going to start working!", after speaking, he stretched out his hand and motioned for Smith to take him into the computer room.

As soon as Smith and Dai Zhiqiang left, the blonde foreigner beckoned and called a subordinate, "Call John immediately and tell him that the headquarters has given him the highest authority in the use of funds, and he wants him to take the forty percent of the equity of the soft alliance no matter what!"

"Yes!" the man replied, and quickly left, to carry out the orders of the blonde foreigner.

The blonde foreigner is ruthless at this time, this time he said that he would get the equity of the soft alliance, even if it was a loss, Dai Zhiqiang's words gave him enough reason and confidence, controlling the soft alliance, it is equivalent to controlling the direction of network security for a long time in the future, the annual profit of this market is as high as tens of billions of dollars, although he is paying more now, but he will get more returns in the future, which is better than getting nothing. The most important thing is that the strategic level of SoftAlliance is not only able to make anti-intrusion software, it also has more uses and more profit points to develop.

It's a pity that he can see this, and others can also see it, and his peers also sent someone to contact Xiong Hanchen at this time, which is also a death order, and he must get the forty percent of the equity of the soft alliance.

The staff of the soft alliance now talk about tea money after dinner, is to see how much their company's equity is worth, and at noon, a large number of people gathered in the rest area to chat and fart.

"Boss Xiong is really hot now!" said an employee who seemed to be very active, "Feng Ming just awarded him the title of 'Honorary Citizen', Haicheng immediately gave two, 'Ten Good Citizens', and even this year's 'Haicheng Outstanding Private Entrepreneur' was also issued in advance." For the forty percent of the shares in Boss Xiong's hands, these two families can be regarded as soaring, and they both want to pull Boss Xiong to their side. ”

"The title is all false!" Some people disagreed, "The key depends on who gives more money, these two companies don't give much money, and the city is also tight, so they can only give something reputational, I heard that there are several foreign chaebols who have already offered a price higher than one billion dollars!"

"Billion!" An employee was probably frightened, and sighed: "It's too much money to burn, all the belongings of our company are placed here, I estimate that it will be packaged and sold to scrap collectors, and it will not exceed 100,000 US dollars!"

"What kind of scrap collectors!" The business supervisor was a little unhappy, waiting for the employee, "You kid can't speak! We dare to sell, do they dare to collect scrap products? Let me tell you, we just grab something and throw it out now, and the people below will be like a treasure to rob crazy, and the waste collectors can't squeeze in at all, so they can only rest on the side, understand!"

"Understood!" the people in the staff area burst into laughter, amused by the words of the business executive.

"Anyway, we are also a large enterprise worth billions, and I will be given some when I go out to talk and do things in the future, especially you!" the business supervisor pointed to the employee just now, "Don't keep picking up the words that are not productive!"

Everyone laughed again, and the employee blushed, shrank back a little embarrassed, and was dragged by everyone.

"Mr. Liu!" The employees finished making trouble, and turned their attention to Liu Xiao, who was drinking tea and reading the newspaper on the side, "Now that others are paying such a high price, is there any hope for us to repurchase the equity?"

No one made any trouble now, they all looked at Liu Xiao, waiting for an answer.

Liu Xiao put down the newspaper, "Didn't we just receive 1.8 billion from Steko? That money is useless, it's just for this thing, do you think there's any hope?", Liu Xiao smiled, shook his head, and continued to read the newspaper, the newspaper was full of reports on this matter, this kind of bidding situation rarely appeared in China, especially the participation of some official zf sides, which made the whole thing even more noisy, Liu Xiao said it easily, but in fact, he was very worried in his heart, and he was a little unclear about these official attitudes.

The employees didn't know Liu Xiao's troubles, and when they heard Liu Xiao say this, they were rejoicing, and it seemed that the repurchase was really promising.

The business director walked up to Liu Xiao and sat down, and said in a low voice: "Now that so many people are vying to buy our equity, the previous rumors that slandered us have been self-defeating, but there is a new problem!"

"What's the problem?" Liu Xiao put down the newspaper again.

"Those who see that there is no hope of buying shares, they have shifted their attention to our business again, and several companies came this morning, and they accepted the price we offered, and they want to buy our business!" The business director looked at Liu Xiao, "What do you think about this? Our goal has been achieved, do we want to continue to sell these businesses?"

"Sell!" Liu Xiao did not hesitate, "You delay it for a few more days, see the situation, if there are many people who buy and they all have the strength, we will sell, but the three-year period must not be slowed down, we must bite to death." Also, the strategic markets in Europe and the United States are not in a hurry to sell first, and we must let them hurt to the bones, only this time, so that they will never forget this feeling, so that they will not even dare to mention the name of the soft alliance in the future. ”

"Okay, I know what to do!" The business director nodded, with Liu Xiao's attitude, he had the bottom in his heart when he got things done.

As he was talking, Shang Yue walked over and approached the two of them, "I have checked the bottom of the seven companies!"

"Office talk!" Liu Xiao stood up and motioned for the two to go to his office.

"These seven companies are all veritable big chaebols, investing in a variety of industries, from banks and futures to daily necessities, they are unimaginably big. Shang Yue paused, thinking about how to make his words clear, "Let's put it this way, all the industries in this world can be summarized into 38 kinds in the end, and the enterprises under these seven chaebols occupy the top three of 13 of the 38 industries, these industries can be said to be basically controlled by them, wealth is highly concentrated in the hands of these people, and they are also inextricably linked with the regimes of many countries." ”

"No matter how powerful they are, don't they have things that they can't control?" Liu Xiao smiled, "For example, we can't control them!"

Shang Yue looked at Liu Xiao, "According to the information I received, these seven companies have secretly reached agreements with many European and American countries, saying that they will raise the network security of these countries to a strategic level within half a year!"

Liu Xiao snorted coldly, "They are quite positive, and they haven't gotten their hands on the strategic level yet, so they will divide the market first!"

"Then what are you going to do?" Shang Yue asked.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll deal with it!" Liu Xiao didn't say what to do, "You can hand over all the information about these seven chaebols to me in a moment!"

"That'...... Okay!" Shang Yue didn't ask much, "Then I'll bring it to you now!", and left Liu Xiao's office after speaking.

The business executive scratched his head and looked surprised, "There will be such a powerful company in the world?"

"What you don't know or hear about doesn't mean it won't exist!" Liu Xiao smiled.

"Mr. Liu, won't you be afraid at all when fighting with such a big company?" asked the business executive, who was a little worried.

"Scared?" Liu Xiao shook his head with a smile, "I want to be afraid, but what's the use of being afraid?" , Liu Xiao at this time really wanted to thank one person, that is the evil sword, when Liu Xiao just came out of school, the first job he took was Zhang's project, when he heard that the opponent was the evil sword, he was scared that his feet were weak, but what was he afraid of, just what happened, the evil sword stole Liu Xiao's development report, and in turn ruthlessly slammed Liu Xiao's army, from then on, Liu Xiao understood, fear is useless, people are afraid, the mentality will be unbalanced, always feel inferior, and work will shrink back. If it weren't for this profound lesson, there would not have been a later effort to fight for Huawei, let alone the current favorable situation.

"You just said that others said that it was unproductive, I don't think you are very good!" Liu Xiao smiled and sat back in his chair, "They are richer than us, this is not wrong, but so what? No matter how rich they are, they can't buy our technology, no matter how rich they are, they still have to rush to send us money!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" the business executive patted his head, "Look at my useless appearance!"
