When Tang Huan returned, he found a teenager who looked like a high school student being guarded and sitting in a corner, while the crowd was talking with great interest.

"What's going on?" Seeing that the order of the scene was maintained well, busy but not chaotic, Tang Huan kept his calm when he asked.

"This little guy, secretly using the program on his own floppy disk, sabotaged our demo system. The subordinate replied depressedly.

"I'm not looking for the wrong person. Tang Huan glanced at the young man who was still looking around, and continued to ask.

"That's not wrong, we caught a copy of it, and while looking at his floppy disk, we accidentally disabled another demo system. The subordinate replied as he glared at the boy through gritted teeth.

Tang Huan bowed slightly, although he was surprised, he also agreed with the judgment of his subordinates in his heart.

You must know that in the current personal computer industry, the types of floppy disk drives are not uniform, and the format of floppy disks is also different, thus forming a platform dependence.

For example, the floppy disk of Fangyuan's personal computer, even if it can be put into the floppy disk drive of IBM-PC, cannot be read or written.

Therefore, this alone can also strongly prove that the boy is the initiator.

"What's the hell, I just studied your computer and made a joke by the way. The boy laughed fearlessly.

Seeing that this kid had no remorse, his subordinates were so angry that they clenched their fists, and Tang Huan waved his hand, in such a public occasion, cherishing feathers is the first thing, and he can't be rude.

Charles Simeone, who had already seen the situation, came up and whispered: "This program is obviously self-replicating, infecting all executable files, rewriting and adding unique microcode, which meets our definition of a computer virus in the laboratory." ”

Tang Huan nodded quietly. "How long will it take for these paralyzed demo systems to work again?"

"The most straightforward way is to redo the contents of the hard drive, install the operating system, drivers, application software, and configure the network, which will take at least an hour or two. ”

Seeing Tang Huan frowning, Charles Simone hurriedly explained: "This is the first time we have encountered such a situation. Moreover, the accompanying engineers are not proficient in the low-level technical details of computer systems, so they can only use this most stupid and time-consuming method. ”

Tang Huan snorted dissatisfiedly, "It's been too long, and it's damaging to the image of our big company." These people don't understand the excitement, and they don't care what a computer virus is, they just know that we were played to death by a little kid, and maybe tomorrow it will make headlines and become a laughing stock. ”

Charles Simone looked around and noticed a lively crowd. There was no shortage of competitors such as IBM, and there were even reporters who carried cameras and happily filmed non-stop, and he suddenly sweated profusely, and said repeatedly: "I'll think of a way again." ”

After taking his eyes off the computer screen full of garbled characters, Tang Huan lightly ordered, "Bring my laptop." ”

Since Fangyuan laptops were developed, this kind of product has become the standard configuration of Tang Huan's portable office.

After spending ten minutes writing and debugging a piece of assembly code. Tang Huan copied the program to a FreeDOS floppy disk and used it to restart a paralyzed demo computer.

Some viewers have long noticed that Tang Huan, the big boss, has taken matters into his own hands. One to ten, ten to hundred, under the exchange of heads and ears, everyone's eyes were focused on him.

The screen scrolled for more than a dozen seconds in a row of esoteric characters, then automatically restarted, and then there was no more. The system is back to normal.

"Make a copy of this floppy disk and scan it for any of the demo computers that are having problems. Tang Huan casually handed the FreeDOS floppy disk to Charles Simeone, who had been standing by his side.

"Understood. Charles Simone agreed with admiration on his face, he didn't expect that after Tang Huan became a billionaire, he would be at the same time in terms of specific underlying technology. The skill is still so profound, I don't have such a quick wit, and it seems that the Ph.D. who is studying has no water at all.

Seeing the lively crowd erupted in warm applause and cheers, their initial thought was naturally that the bigger the chaos, the better, so that they could watch a good show.

Especially those competitors, they are gloating, and they are secretly thinking about how to make a joke so that the industry leader can make a fool of himself.

Unexpectedly, not only did Tang Huan's subordinates deal with the crisis in an orderly manner, but he also went into battle in person and solved the accident three times and five by two.

Two reporters squeezed over desperately and couldn't wait to ask, "Don, you're also a hacker, aren't you?"

"It depends on whether you are talking about hackers in a positive or negative sense. Tang Huan smiled slightly, made a gesture, and motioned for his subordinates to put away their laptops.

"You must be a good hacker, and that troublemaker is a bad hacker. "Journalists are doing everything they can to put on a trap in order to make eye-catching news.

"I can tell that it's just a naughty kid's trick, and it's not good or bad. Tang Huan waved his hand.

"Then what are you going to do with this young hacker, and will you sue him?" the reporter persistently asked.

"Let's wait until we see his guardian. Tang Huan motioned to his subordinates to quickly let others deal with these chattering reporters.

After getting out of these drum noises, Tang Huan came to the backstage and sat down, and the young man was also brought over, and he was still shocked at this time.

"Little guy, what's your name, where did you get to Las Vegas, and where are your parents?" Tang Huan took a sip of water and began to interrogate.

"My name is Rich Skrenta, and I'm here from Pittsburgh. Facing Tang Huan's sharp gaze, Richie Screnta's eyes looked away with a weak heart, and the energy that he didn't care about before was long gone.

Hearing that the other party was running from Pennsylvania in the northeast to Nevada in the west, almost across the entire United States, Tang Huan couldn't help but gasp, and muttered to himself in his heart, "Nima, American teenagers are too lawless." ”

"Do you understand that your behavior just now has damaged the commercial interests of our company, and I can find a lawyer to sue you, even if you are underage, you will not be able to escape punishment. Tang Huan, who was not angry, reprimanded in a stern tone, "Believe it or not, I applied to the court and sentenced you not to use the computer in the future." ”

Perhaps the last sentence was too intimidating, Rich Screnta hung his head and muttered in a low voice, "I just think your computers are advanced enough to study and experiment." ”

"Then you can't stay at home and study, why do you want to go to the COMDEX site in Las Vegas and smash my yard?" Tang Huan slammed his glass.

Rich Screnta craned his neck and argued, "Aren't there more advanced and varied computers here?" In order to come to Las Vegas, I put all my pocket money into it. ”

"This is really a bear child. Tang Huan rubbed his eyebrows and decided not to waste time on this kid.

Not to mention the fact that the US laws on computer security are not sound at the present stage, and the media hype of "bullying the small with the big" that may be caused by the mere pursuit of responsibility cannot stand it, and it seems that it can only be stopped. (To be continued......)
