Chapter 243: Betrayal

The juvenile hacker is indeed not big, judging from the birth certificate, he is really not seven years old, but he is very proficient in the operation of the database, through the "Sam Today's National News" placed on the computer desk, Zhang Yi disclosed the database vulnerability, remotely operated the database of the alarm company, dragged the other party's sensitive data to his own computer hard disk, and on the database, made arbitrary modifications, causing heavy losses to customers.

Oracle acted with the FBI for the sake of publicity, and invited many reporters, who were stunned when they saw such a young hacker.

According to the Sam's Country Law on the Protection of Minors, journalists are definitely not allowed to report a series of information such as the name of the hacker, the photo, etc. Otherwise, they will be met with endless condemnation from children's and women's rights protection organizations.

When shrewd reporters were worried about how to attract the public's attention to this explosive news, they suddenly found that the accompanying employees of Oracle Bone Company had gray faces one by one, like mourning examinees.

Oh, isn't this ready-made news? The Orrick database, which claims to be the most advanced and secure in the world, was broken by a boy who is less than seven years old.

The little boy who was originally at the center of the news, at this moment, no reporter paid attention to it.

In fact, with such a young child, you can't take photos or interviews, so you can immediately divert your attention and find new news material, which is the right choice.

A reporter with a quick hand immediately poked the microphone into the mouth of the accompanying employee of Oracle Bone Technology Company, and asked eagerly: "Excuse me, the database developed by your company, which is claimed to be the most secure in the world, was broken by a little boy who is less than seven years old, do you have anything to say?"

"This can't be, this can't be!" replied incoherently as the staff, who had never dealt with reporters, backed away from the microphone.

The camera reporter even let the employee's panic footage be faithfully recorded.

The next day's news reports, not surprisingly, were all about Oracle Bone Company.

Some database experts came forward to say that there are indeed many problems in the Orrick database, as Zhang Yi said, the BUG solution is as high as tens of thousands of pages.

There is also an unknown hacker, who said in an interview: "According to the database vulnerabilities announced by Zhang Yi, you only need a little database operation foundation to easily attack the Orrick database." ”

For a time, the fame of the Orrick database was widely known.

This level of marketing is even more than the sum of the advertising effects of Oracle over the years. It's just that, unlike the positive image of the advertisement, this time the fame is all negative, all kinds of distrust.

Instead of suing the boy's parents, the damaged company sued Orrick's database developer, Oracle.

The reason is simple, the so-called most secure database in the world was breached by a boy who was less than seven years old. The other party is suspected of false propaganda and demands compensation for the losses caused thereby.

Reflecting on the stock market, the oracle bone stocks listed on Naqdak, from the beginning of the opening of the market, a large number of sell orders flew like snowflakes, and the stocks that were in an upward momentum were smashed to the bottom.

Since there were no limits on the price limit and the limit down, the market value of Oracle Bone had evaporated by one-third at the close of the day, forcing shareholders to raise a lot of money to try to pull the stock out of the quagmire.

It was only the next day that the newspaper published more bugs and vulnerabilities in Orrick.

To outsiders, this database software is like a broken ship leaking everywhere, and no matter how much the people on board repair it, it will not save it from sinking.

in the conference room.

Rak Exxon's roar can be heard clearly throughout the floor.

"Why, why can't we sue this bastard, isn't it because of his disclosure that our database software has been compromised?"

"Mr. Laxon, I have to remind you that Mr. Zhang Yi sent it to us three days in advance before every new bug was disclosed, and he gave us enough time to react. However, in just three days, the technical team was unable to find the bug and patch it in hundreds of thousands of lines of source program. An independent director with a background in software technology said calmly.

"Yes, in this regard, even if you go to court, the court will not support you. The media will only think that your company's technical strength is too poor to patch bugs and make up for vulnerabilities in a short period of time. At that point, the company's reputation will be even worse. ”

Several shareholders who spoke looked at each other, looked at Exxon like an angry lion, and couldn't help but shake their heads.

People who can afford it, your various blatant provocations, and the other party does not dare to play against you, which makes you a little too self-conscious. Now a kick is kicked on the iron plate, look! See how you solve it, otherwise, in the world of capital, what kind of founder, compared with economic interests, is nonsense, if we lose a lot, teach you how to behave in minutes.

The shareholders who attended the meeting had all kinds of thoughts, but there was one thing in common, this thing could not go on like this.

Who knows how many defects of the Orrick database are still in the other party's hands, if every time they announce some, they keep cutting people with a blunt knife, and the angry Orrick database users will be obliged to sue the oracle bone company to the court, so that the other party will pay until bankruptcy.

And the company's stock will fall to the bottom, from a high-tech stock that everyone loves to a smelly junk stock.

"No, we're going to sue him until he's bankrupt!" Luxon roared madly at everyone.

It's just that he didn't notice that the eyes of the shareholders around him gradually became cold.

At this time, the chairman, who was sitting in the main seat, stood up, pressed his hand, and motioned to Exxon to stabilize his emotions.

"I think Mr. Exxon is a little emotional, and needs to calm down for a while!"

After speaking, he made a gesture of invitation to Exxon who was in a rage, and the assistant at the door opened the door of the conference room, looking at him coldly, and the expression was self-evident.

"Please, Mr. Exxon!"

Seeing this scene, Exxon's mouth opened wide in surprise, a little incredulous.

It was hard to believe that the chairman would forcibly eject him from the meeting, and even more so that none of the shareholders stood up against the decision.

He's the founder of this company! Many of these people were the company's veterans who had gone through difficult years with him. There are also many people who used to be highly regarded as investors. Relying on his correct leadership, these investors have made dozens or even hundreds of times more profits.

And these, at this moment, all betrayed him, what the hell is this for.

Is it just because the young man's technical strength is stronger than him, or rather, he doesn't dare to offend the young man.

Whether he admits it or not, he understands that his current self has gone from being the CEO of a company with tens of thousands of employees to a marginal person who is dispensable in the company.

At this time, he suddenly envied the young man, all the shares of his company were all his own, and he had no plans to make the company public, even if he lost the company's bet to others, no one could oppose him.

Since starting his business with $1,200, he has been praised as a treasure by venture capital banks. The first round of venture capital, the second round of venture capital, and even before going public, there was a third round of venture capital, and it was because of these ventures that he easily became the envy of everyone billionaire, luxury cars, private yachts, private jets, all kinds of beauties, filled all his life.

However, it is precisely because of these that his stake has been repeatedly diluted, from full control, to half of the shares, to one-third, until now less than 10% of the shares. So, now he was easily abandoned.

Before the door was closed, the shareholders did not shy away from saying: "It is simply a crime to provoke the other party with loud-mouthed remarks and harm our property and shrink it by half." Get him out of the board completely!"

The chairman indifferently glanced at Lark Exxon, who was walking frivolously and gradually moving away, and said in a condensed voice: "The first problem now is to immediately announce the news that the company has kicked Exxon out of the board of directors. At the same time, send someone to contact Mr. Zhang Yi to negotiate suitable conditions, calm the other party's anger, and sit down to have a good talk. ”

At this time, no one paid attention to the founder of the company who was lonely and far away, and from this moment on, the company founded by him had left him in a decisive way.

This kind of bane was planted from the first time he made a venture capital! Again and again, in exchange for a large amount of money, he never dreamed of a large amount of money, also blinded his eyes.

He took it for granted that even if he lost his controlling stake, he was still the founder of this company, the biggest hero, and anyone would be happy with him, follow in his footsteps, and achieve a brilliant career.

It's just that all of this was reversed when he offended the young man. The company's board of directors did not hesitate to abandon him, throwing him like garbage, using him as a bargaining chip with others.

Why this is happening, why is it changing so quickly, he really doesn't understand.

Looking at the website report, the lonely back of Lack Exxon departed.

Zhang Yi was not excited, he suddenly had a feeling of sadness for the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Exxon vs. Oracle, Steve Jobs vs. Apple, and himself vs. micro-hardware and software are all the gods and spiritual pillars of their respective enterprises.

Steve Jobs was once abandoned by Apple's board of directors, and now it's Lark Exxon's turn, so will he end up like them in the future?

They all lost their controlling stake in the development of the company in order to raise funds. And the equity of his own company, except for a small number of share exchanges with Apple, is all held in his own hands, and the problem of losing the company because of equity should not happen to him.

However, there are some additional insurance measures to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

The main text has made some changes to the name in order to avoid some disputes and ambiguities.
