John got on the plane to Feng Ming as soon as possible, and rushed to discuss with Xiong Hanchen about the acquisition of the shares of the soft alliance, the speed can be said to be fast enough, but what he didn't expect was that someone walked ahead of him this time.

Just half an hour after Xiong Hanchen expressed his willingness to sell the equity of the soft alliance, the Ministry of Information Industry of the People's Republic of China issued a statement as soon as possible, saying that it was willing to invest in the purchase of the equity of the soft alliance in Xiong Hanchen's hands, and would continue to buy the equity of the soft alliance in the future, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the soft alliance and make the soft alliance a central enterprise directly under the Ministry of Information Industry.

It's a pity that John was on the plane and didn't get the news at the first time, otherwise he would have fallen off the plane in surprise. Hesitating, even if it is decided, there will be all kinds of cumbersome procedures waiting in front, so even if the Chinese side wants to acquire the equity of the soft alliance, it is estimated that it will have to be argued for a year and a half, at that time it was difficult to say anything about the surname of the soft alliance, but this time it was different, John's jet was also left behind.

When John landed in Fengming, he received more than this news, Fengming and the city government of Haicheng also expressed interest in the equity of the soft alliance, and the city government considered buying the equity of the soft alliance in a new way of cooperation, and the official website of the soft alliance also issued a statement that the soft alliance will repurchase its own equity in the name of the company, and has sent someone to discuss with Xiong Hanchen.

"Crazy! Absolutely crazy!" John looked at these messages, and suddenly froze at the exit of the airport, he didn't know whether he wanted to contact Xiong Hanchen again, because he had lost the opportunity, sometimes John would think that Chinese officials were stupid, but at this time he had to admit that stupidity is sometimes a virtue, because once the matter is decided, these Chinese officials are often a posture of not giving up until the goal is achieved, they can go all the way to the black, and regardless of the cost. John's idea of buying equity at a low price was declared bankrupt before it could be implemented.

What was even more surprising than John was Liu Xiao, who was originally waiting for Boss Xiong to announce the news, and immediately sent someone to spread some news to catch the wind and shadows, pushing up the price, so that others had no opportunity to take advantage of it. But before he had time to act, the official statement of the Ministry of Information Industry came out, which scared Liu Xiao a lot, could it be that the Ministry of Information Industry is playing seriously, they don't really want to recruit the soft alliance, right? This is not Liu Xiao's original intention, things are a little bad!

Before he could figure out what was going on, Feng Ming and Haicheng also got involved, and wanted to argue with the Ministry of Information Industry, everyone seemed to be determined to win, Liu Xiao saw that things were getting more and more complicated, so he had to announce that the soft alliance was going to buy back his shares, as for what was going on, he could only figure it out slowly.

"How can this be?" Liu Xiao sat there and wondered, except for the last time the Ministry of Information Industry issued a plaque to the Soft Alliance, the Soft Alliance has never had any contact with the Ministry of Information Industry, how can they be on top of the list, how can they be interested in such a small company as the Soft Alliance, and how can they know what the strategic level of the Soft Alliance is. Besides, as soon as Boss Xiong sent out the news, the Ministry of Information Industry was the first to respond, this speed is extremely rare, they must have gotten the news in advance, and they were prepared, otherwise they would not have reacted so quickly.

"How do they know......" Liu Xiao scratched his cheeks, he was already confidential enough, except for Boss Xiong, no one knew about it, thinking about it, Liu Xiao finally remembered that last time Fang Guokun came to look for him, he happened to be talking to Boss Xiong on the phone, as if he had mentioned it.

Liu Xiao stood up immediately, it must be Fang Guokun, he can move out of the ministry level, and only Fang Guokun can do it, what does he mean by this, is he really preparing to buy the soft alliance, or is he helping the soft alliance? If he persuades the Ministry of Information Industry to buy the soft alliance, it can only show that Fang Guokun is a person who knows goods, but if Fang Guokun is secretly helping the soft alliance, then Fang Guokun can use the word "terrible" In two words, he just said it casually, he could immediately guess what he was going to do, arranged everything early, and waited for his own move, this kind of person is too powerful.

Liu Xiao paced back and forth in the office a few times, a little upset, if these ZF units are ready to buy the soft alliance, it will be troublesome, doing business is doing business, doing technology is doing technology, I don't want the soft alliance to become like some state-owned enterprises, government and enterprise are not separated, doing business is the same as being an official, so the soft alliance will not be chaotic!

Walking out of the office, the people in the company were also talking at this time, no matter what happened, everyone would not find it strange, but Boss Xiong wanted to sell his equity at this time, which made everyone a little incomprehensible. Although the outside media belittled the soft alliance to the point that it was not good, the profits of the soft alliance are rising steadily, and the investment has just begun to see returns, and it is necessary to sell the equity.

"Mr. Liu!" When the employee saw Liu Xiao come out, he asked: "Is it true that we are repurchasing shares?"

Liu Xiao smiled, "That must be true, I have already sent Feng Ming to discuss with Boss Xiong." ”

"That's great!" The employees immediately discussed, the soft alliance repurchase of shares, which means that the company is back in their hands, maybe they can still get a share, and it will not be a problem to provide for the elderly in the future.

"Okay, hurry up and go back to work, it's working time!" Liu Xiao smiled and waved the employees away, "Everyone do a good job, after the equity comes back, everyone has a share!"

"Good~" burst out of jubilation in the employee area, according to the current profitability of the soft alliance, the annual dividend = much higher than the salary, although the equity has not yet arrived, everyone began to cheer and celebrate, and then it is excited from head to toe, the feeling of working for yourself and working for people are two completely different feelings.

Liu Xiao saw that everyone was back in their seats and typing desperately on the keyboard, and couldn't help but smile and shook his head, in fact, he had already planned to distribute equity, but now that the strong enemy is looking around, he can't take risks, but when this matter is over, this matter should be put on the agenda.

Confidential meeting room in the FSK Building, Switzerland.

The blonde foreigner and a few people were sitting at the round table, they were all looking in the same direction, not far from the conference table, using 3D technology to show the three-dimensional reality of John and his young partner, using OTE equipment and systems, remote barrier-free meetings can be realized, everything is like the real thing.

"It seems that sending you to China is really a mistake!" the blonde man looked gloomy, staring at the real image of the young foreigner.

"I'm so sorry!" the portrait of the young foreigner immediately lowered his head, "I failed the company's expectations, I messed up everything!"

"From now on, John will take over all the company's operations in China!" the blonde foreigner stared at the young man, "You will leave for the headquarters immediately, and you will be disposed of!"

"Yes!" the young foreigner replied, took a step back, and said no more.

"John!" The blonde foreigner turned to look at John, "I agree with your suggestion, now you are responsible for negotiating with the Soft Alliance, striving to cooperate with them, you must show great sincerity, let the Soft Alliance give me a better price than Steko, we need the strategic products of the Soft Alliance, and a large number of them, do you understand?"

"I understand!" John touched his nose, "but I guess it's a bit difficult to get a cheaper price than Skiko!"

"Oh?" said the blonde foreigner looked at John.

According to my estimates, if SoftAlliance really enters the Russian market, the annual income should be more than 2 billion US dollars, and they finally gave the two-year income to Steko at a price of 1.8 billion, which is clearly a big snack, and what he wants to eat is us!" John frowned, "I think this price will not only not fall, but will rise!"

The blonde foreigner is also frowning, FSK has privately reached a verbal agreement with many European countries, FSK promised to improve the network security level of these countries to a strategic level within half a year, but now the soft alliance has been unable to take it for a long time, a big cake with profits of billions, or even tens of billions of euros, I can see it now, but I can't eat it, how can the blonde foreigner not be in a hurry. What I have is a sales channel, the only thing missing is the technology of the soft alliance, because the retail price offered by the soft alliance is too high, and these countries cannot accept it, but if you let FSK honestly be the agent of the soft alliance, although FSK can also make a little money, but the profit will be greatly reduced, besides, FSK has never been an agent before, and FSK must get what it likes, and it is this unique business. Several other peers are in a similar situation to FSK, and everyone is also in a hurry, but they can't eat the cake.

"What do you think should be done?" asked the blonde foreigner.

"Wait and see!" replied John, "and now it's all a trap of the Soft Alliance, and no matter what we do, the Soft Alliance will win in the end." As long as we participate, we must agree to the high price offered by the soft alliance, otherwise there is no chance, and the soft alliance also hopes that more people will participate, so that their prices will rise, even if they don't sell the product, they can make the same amount of profit. ”

"We need a strategic-level product!" the blonde foreigner looked at John, "We have an agreement with the customer!"

"This situation will not last long, when the price rises to the point that everyone can not accept it, everyone will calm down, and then we will make another move, and the chances of success will be much greater!" John looked at the blonde foreigner, "I think we should re-establish the offensive and defensive alliance!"

"Are you going to let me convince those customers?" the blonde foreigner was a little unhappy, "Even if the customers can wait, do you think their network can wait? The civil hacker war between Russia and NATO allies continues, their network has been asking us for help ten times a day, if it drags on for another day, I am afraid that they will abandon us!"

John frowned, everything was calculated by the soft alliance, so you can only follow him to go crazy, involuntarily, can't stop, John sighed, "Then we can only start with Xiong Hanchen's forty percent equity, even if we spend a little more money, it is much more cost-effective than buying that business." In the field of security, there is not even a single security technology that can continue to lead for a year, and the minimum age of the business sold by the soft alliance is three years, except for Steko. He wants to tie everyone's interests to the soft alliance, as long as he is allowed to achieve it, no matter who attacks him in the future, it is simply a fool's dream, and no one can shake such a huge interest group. ”

"Genius!" After listening to John's analysis, the blonde foreigner couldn't help but be surprised by Liu Xiao's plan, this is definitely a genius, not only a genius in technology, but also a genius in marketing, a small company, even before it has even killed its own borders, it has already made the whole world go crazy with him, "Then follow your plan, contact Xiong Hanchen, no matter how high the price, you must win this forty percent of the equity!"

"I see!" John touched his nose, "one more thing......"

"What's going on!" The people in the conference room froze for a moment, John's three-dimensional image suddenly disappeared, did John cut off contact, or did something happen?

"Bang!", the door to the conference room was pushed open, and Smith walked in.

"Smith, what's going on, why is the communication going down?" the blonde foreigner stood up.

"Our system has crashed again, and we are currently looking for the cause, we have lost contact with all the branches, and it is estimated that the system of the branch has also collapsed!" Smith didn't dare to look at the blonde foreigner, "Preliminary judgment, it's still a virus outbreak!"

"Virus!" the blonde foreigner looked at Smith viciously, "Haven't those junk files been disposed of a long time ago, how can there still be viruses?"

"Those junk files have been dealt with a long time ago, and today's virus may have nothing to do with those files!" Smith looked at the blonde foreigner and asked, "Do you want to let the OTE people come over?"

"Rubbish, it's all rubbish!" the blonde patted the table, "I have a large group of people like you to make sure my system is safe and sound, not to spend another 10 million euros every time to find someone to fix it!"

"This time the virus is more powerful than the last time, and after the infection, it began to quickly devour all the data on our computers, but fortunately, the OTE system has information protection function, and the loss is not serious, but because some key servers have been infected, it has lost its function, and our system has fallen into a state of paralysis!" Smith said.

The blonde foreigner paced back and forth a few times, picked up an item on the table and threw it at Smith, "Are you standing here waiting to die?

Fortunately, Smith protected his face, but unfortunately his hand was smashed out of a bloody hole, and at this time, he didn't care about the injury, so he hurriedly went out to contact OTE.

Half an hour later, Dai Zhiqiang came again, and after listening to Smith's introduction, he took out a job and analyzed some data on all the infected viruses, and finally found the source of the virus, which was an employee's computer.

"What's your last few operations on the computer?" Dai Zhiqiang called the employee to him.

"Download a report from the branch's website!" the employee replied.

Dai Zhiqiang nodded, and asked the employee to repeat his operation, and saw that the employee opened the website of one of FSK's branches, found a financial statement for the previous quarter, and then downloaded it back for reference, but as soon as it was opened, the machine crashed, and then the machines of other employees collapsed one after another.

After reading the whole process, Dai Zhiqiang took out the file from his briefcase, "After your employees downloaded the unfamiliar files, they did not disinfect the files as required, violating the safety rules, the responsibility is not on our system, this is the responsibility statement, please sign it!"

The blonde foreigner knew that it would be like this, and OTE would never be responsible, so he took it over and swiped a few signatures and handed it back to Dai Zhiqiang, "Mr. Dai, we have installed the latest anti-virus software, why are we still poisoned? What kind of virus is this, is there any connection with the virus last time, did you not clean it up last time?"

"We have collected your money, and we will naturally help you get things done!" Dai Zhiqiang stuffed the file back into the folder, "This virus is completely different from the last virus, it is a purely destructive virus!

"What do you say?" the blonde foreigner was a little surprised.

"The files containing the virus are on the website of one of your companies, which means that anyone can access them and download them for viewing, but so far we don't know that we have received any reports of this virus, which means that this virus only spreads within your FSK corporate network. Dai Zhiqiang looked at the blonde foreigner, "The other party's goal is very clear, and the virus is so aggressive, I don't think I will do it unless I have something to do with your FSK!"

The blonde foreigner immediately thought of the soft alliance, there are many enemies of FSK, but in terms of computers, only the soft alliance can make trouble for FSK, and it is estimated that only they can do this kind of thing, I have long known that Liu Xiao is a person with revenge, and if FSK steals information and is known by the soft alliance, the soft alliance will definitely retaliate.

"I suggest that you check the computers of all FSK companies, whether it is a website or a company intranet used for office, any file must be checked to prevent the other party from doing anything else else, and in the future, you must strengthen your precautions, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee that this kind of thing will happen again!" Dai Zhiqiang sighed after speaking.

The blonde foreigner was stupid now, gritting his teeth hatefully, if it was really done by the soft alliance, then he would have stabbed a hornet's nest this time, unless the soft alliance was killed, there would never be a peaceful life in the future.

"Then is there any way for you to find out who did the virus?" asked the blond-haired foreigner, who had to confirm whether he had been planted in the carrot pit of the Soft Alliance.

Dai Zhiqiang shook his head, "This is difficult, the virus has devoured all the clues!"

The blonde foreigner had no idea, so he had to say: "Then please ask Mr. Dai to help us clean up the virus, and in addition, we have to restore all our previous data!"

"There is no problem with this, our system has an information protection module, as long as the virus is cleaned up, the previous data can be recovered! It's just ......" Dai Zhiqiang began to pull his briefcase again, "Our company's regulations ......"

"I know, 10 million euros!" said the blonde foreigner first, "don't worry, money is not a problem!"

Dai Zhiqiang took out the agreement with a smile, handed it to the blonde foreigner, and then said: "In addition, there is one thing I have to inform you, three days later, we will upgrade this office system of FSK, the time will be about half an hour, please arrange it, and let us know when the time is confirmed!"

"What do you want to upgrade?" Smith asked.

"It's the security module of the system, the previous security module is too old, to deal with the ever-changing hacking methods, it has been a bit difficult, we are ready to upgrade it, replaced with a more secure and effective soft alliance strategic engine!" Dai Zhiqiang smiled, "The detailed upgrade announcement, we will fax it later!"

As soon as Dai Zhiqiang's words came out, the blonde foreigner and Smith exclaimed at the same time.

"What's wrong?" Dai Zhiqiang looked at the two strangely.

Can the two of them not be shocked, this virus incident, the eight achievements were done by the soft alliance, and it is too late for me to hide from the soft alliance and prevent the soft alliance, if the security core of the entire enterprise is really replaced by the strategic engine of the soft alliance, doesn't that mean that it is to lure the wolf into the room, and can there be a solid life in the future?
