Yan Wenlong walked out of the public conference room of the makerspace, dragged his tired body, and walked towards the elevator. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoHe just finished a three-hour meeting with IDC service providers about how to deal with server attacks.
IDC service providers have come up with a number of solutions, including purchasing new security software and firewalls, implementing disaster backups, and more.
After some discussion, and considering the future growth of data volume, Yan Wenlong agreed to purchase new security software, purchase new service capabilities, and purchase backup servers for daily backup. While these measures will incur significant expenses, he believes they are the essential investments needed for future scale-up.
Yan Wenlong came to the street and got into a taxi. In the car, he hurriedly turned on his mobile phone again.
In several popular forums, a post titled "Showing Up - My Days as a Water Army" is very popular, and has now received millions of views, more than 300,000 retweets, and more than 100,000 replies.

In the follow-up of this post, there were many replies from netizens.
Many people expressed their shock, a feeling of being played with and manipulated, and they were very angry in their hearts. Some people think of a series of previous incidents of mutual spraying on the Internet, and lament that this practice has become so common.
According to the theory of "who benefits, who does evil" mentioned in the post, some people think of the various attacks on the taste before, and analyze it, and the truth is that the "delicious" water army is behind the scenes to fuel the flames and sow discord.
Many netizens angrily went to the homepage and forum of Yuyu to swipe the screen, angrily denounced the despicable behavior of Yuyu, and went to the application market to lower the rating of Yuyu, and cursed Haoyu Company to close down as soon as possible.
Seeing this result, Yan Wenlong smiled with satisfaction. The idea of this post is very good, and he likes himself. The cyber troll army is a knife, you can use it, I can use it too.
At this time, the music played, he picked up his phone and glanced at it, and immediately picked up the phone.
"Yan Wenlong, I'm the special manager of the tax bureau." The voice on the other end of the line was cold.
"Hello, steward, I'm Yan Wenlong. How did you investigate that matter, and did you get the results? ā
"Well, it's out. We have reviewed your financial statements and various materials, and have confirmed that your Nako studio does not have any revenue at the moment, it is not profitable, and your only contracts are basically procurement contracts and employee contracts. Therefore, we have determined that you have not evaded taxes. ā
"But in the future, you still have to pay attention to abiding by the law and paying taxes on time and according to the standard, you know?" The voice on the other side was quite stern.
"That's for sure, we're definitely going to comply with all the tax regulations." Yan Wenlong asked, "I don't know who reported our studio, will you investigate over there?" ā
"Of course, it will be investigated, this kind of anonymous false accusation has wronged good people and wasted the time and resources of the tax department, which is very hateful. We will definitely investigate to the end and punish severely! After the manager finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Yan Wenlong hung up the phone and let out a long breath. These troubles are being resolved one by one, and the initial results have been achieved. Now, it's up to me to fight back.
He came to the Intermediate Court, got out of the car, tidied up his appearance, and walked into the courthouse.
Nako's studio's lawsuit against "Delicious" for unfair competition has been accepted, and today is the day of the first trial, and the stakes are high, and he must be ready to win this battle.
Yan Wenlong's lawyer is Bai Shaoying. He chose Bai Shaoying, not only because they are familiar with each other and have a tacit understanding of cooperation, but also because Bai Shaoying has outstanding work ability, participated in the litigation process of many large and complex cases, and has won praise from all parties, and is a trustworthy and excellent young lawyer.
The duel with Bai Shaoying is Lin Yun, a long-term partner of the "delicious" company, a well-known barrister. He is the president of the Taigang Lawyers Association, a standing committee member of the National Lawyers Association, and owns a well-known firm. Lin Yun has participated in a lot of cases, most of which are influential cases, and he has also won numerous honors, and his value is extremely high, making him an extremely difficult opponent.
Inside the courtroom.
The judge tapped the hammer lightly and spoke: "Today is the first trial of this lawsuit, the prosecution and defense please present evidence and debate in accordance with the rhythm and flow of this court." At the request of the defendant and with the consent of the prosecution, the trial was held in private. ā
"Now, the prosecution is invited to speak!" The judge said.
Bai Shaoying stood up and bowed to the judge. She was wearing a black suit, revealing a white shirt inside, a workplace elite dress, looking heroic and elegant. As soon as she stood up, she attracted the attention of many men in the audience, and many of them stared at Bai Shaoying in a daze, releasing strange eyes.
Bai Shaoying said: "Your Excellency. This year, our agent, Nake Studio, launched a food and beverage review app called Taste Through, which competed with the defendant company's product 'Delicious' APP and gained an advantage. In order to redeem the defeat, the defendant adopted a variety of unfair competition methods and carried out a series of attacks on the plaintiff's products. ā
Bai Shaoying took out a photo and said: "This APP called Taste Bian highly imitates the plaintiff's product, but it is actually a virus Trojan horse. The software has had a very bad effect on the user base and has also affected the brand image of the app. ā
"The developer who has tried it is this person, his real name is Wang Jie, he is a hacker, and netizens are called helloworld. I would like to ask him to testify and explain his motives and reasons. ā
Hacker helloworld was brought to the witness stand, looking a little panicked. He looked around, listened carefully to Bai Shaoying's question, and then opened his mouth to answer.
"Yes, I developed this Trojan. I was trying to imitate and try it all over again in order to make the product stink. I was commanded, and I was instructed in the courtroom, the man with the black-rimmed glasses. He found me, gave me 100,000 yuan, told me his request, and I was short of money to spend at that time, so I took the job. ā
"Okay, thank you Witness No. 1, please step back first." Bai Shaoying said: "Next, we will call the next witness, Xie Hong. ā
Immediately afterwards, the little fat man was brought to court by the bailiff. After answering Bai Shaoying's question about his identity, he began to narrate what happened.
He gave a detailed account of how he met the jackal and how he was beaten by the jackal, and also showed the wounds on his body and the 20,000 yuan of new money provided by the jackal.
After that, Xie Hong was also taken out of the courtroom, and the jackal with poor ventilation stood on the witness stand.
Bai Shaoying asked, "What is your real name?" Did you coerce and lure Xie Hong and ask him to tamper with the merchant data in the APP? ā
The jackal was a little nervous, he had been in the bureau, he had been in prison, and he had stood in the dock, but it was the first time he had appeared in court to testify. He looked at Yan Wenlong with some uneasiness, and after seeing Yan Wenlong's cold eyes, his face became even more nervous.
"My name is Zhang Shibo, and my friends on the road call me a jackal. Last month, I was tasked with beating up the witness. ā
Bai Shaoying took out the new money with the two serial numbers and asked, "Did you give this money to Xie Hong?" ā
The jackal glanced at it and replied, "Well, I gave it." At that time, that person gave me 100,000 yuan, all of which were this kind of new money. I hid 80,000 for myself and gave the remaining 20,000 to this little fat man. ā
"Good." Bai Shaoying nodded and asked, "So, the person who instructed you, do you still remember, you take a good look, is he in court today?" ā
The jackal nodded, looked left and right, he pointed to a corner of the courtroom, pointed to Zhang Zhuying, and said to Bai Shaoying: "That person is." He wore black-rimmed glasses and had come to me twice at night. I don't know where he came from, I only know that his name is Zhang Zhuying. ā
Bai Shaoying nodded and arranged for the jackal to leave. Immediately afterwards, she summoned Zhang Zhuying to testify in court.
"Witness No. 4, please tell the presiding judge your name and identity." Bai Shaoying said.
"My name is Zhang Zhuying, I am the general manager of Chengye Public Relations Company, and my job is to accept the client's entrustment and use the resources of the black and white channels to help the client achieve their goals and suppress competitors."
"On August 20th, did you meet with the hacker helloworld, and what did you talk about?"
"That day, I took a new order, through my connections, found the hacker, I asked him to develop a Trojan horse program for me, to imitate the APP, and paid 50,000 yuan in advance, and four days later, paid 50,000 yuan again."
"On August 21, I found the jackal. I asked him to come forward and put pressure on the employees of Nako's studio to modify the business data in bulk. For this, I gave the jackal 100,000 yuan. ā
"Well, thank you for your testimony." Bai Shaoying walked to the opposite side of Zhang Zhuying, stared at the other party's eyes, and asked, "So, who is you entrusted to do all this, and who is your behind-the-scenes master?" Is he at the trial? ā
Zhang Zhuying was oppressed by Bai Shaoying's momentum, and his breathing became short. He loosened his tie, looked at Zhu Lei in the defendant's seat, looked at the presiding judge, and then at Yan Wenlong, lowered his head, and was silent.
"Zhang Zhuying, what you have done and how long the sentence can be, I believe you know. In court today, you can stand a chance of immunity from prosecution by telling what you know. You should understand this truth before you go to court. ā
Zhang Zhuying's face was flushed, and her eyes kept rolling, obviously experiencing a continuous psychological struggle. After a long time, he slowly raised his hand, pointed at Zhu Lei in the dock, and said, "It's him." ā
"He's a guy from the good food company. He approached me and asked me to take a series of necessary measures to bring down the stinky app. For this, he is willing to pay a large sum of money. The amount of this contract is 800,000 yuan, plus 200,000 yuan for the total amount of 1 million. ā
At this time, Zhu Lei in the defendant's dock stood up, pointed at Zhang Zhuying, and said loudly: "I protest!" I don't know this guy at all, I've never met him! I don't know what he did at all, this is a false accusation by the plaintiff, and it is a naked slander! ā
