Chapter 257: Rounding up CIH
"Daddy, come here." Lu Lulu heard her father's voice and shouted in the room.
Soon, with the sound of footsteps, a middle-aged man with a medium build, a white face, and a pair of rimless eyes walked into the room, he was Lu Lulu's father, Lu Xiaoping, secretary general of the Jiangzhou Municipal Government.
"Lulu, what's going on?" After Lu Xiaoping walked into the room, he saw his daughter staring intently at a piece of software on the screen, so he asked.
"Dad, I have a virus in my computer, and now I have found 2,000 of them." In fact, once a CIH virus enters a computer and is activated, it infects all executable files on the hard drive, which is why the number of executable files looks horrifying, Lu said.
"What's the virus?" Lu Xiaoping came to the computer and asked.
"CIH virus, I went to the propaganda site of Xuanne Company this morning, got a free CD there, came back and checked my computer, I didn't expect it to be really poisoned, by the way, Dad, I saw Xu Yunsong, he is still so handsome." Lu Lulu said to Lu Xiaoping.
"yes, what's the matter, did you get him to sign it for you?" Lu Xiaoping asked with a smile.
"No, Xu Yunsong sang a song, and then he was left, and I didn't have a chance to ask him for an autograph." Lu Lulu said a little depressed.
"By the way, Dad, I heard them talk about the CIH virus at the propaganda meeting, it's really scary, fortunately Xu Yunsong reminded me, I thought of going home to check the virus, otherwise on April 26th, when the virus broke out, my computer might be scrapped." Lu Lulu said again.
"The CIH virus is so powerful?" Lu Xiaoping asked suspiciously.
"By the way, I have a brochure from the Xuanne Company here, which is very detailed, you can take a look." Lu Lulu picked up the paper bag distributed by Xuan Ne Company from the computer desk, took out a beautifully printed brochure from it and gave it to Lu Xiaoping.
Lu Xiaoping took the brochure, sat on the bedside in his daughter's room, and looked at it, the front was about the introduction of Xuan Ne Company, he briefly flipped through it, and then turned to the introduction of CIH in the back, and read it twice before he raised his head, but his brows were locked.
"Dad, my computer will be checked for drugs in a while, you can take the disc to your unit, and check your computer for drugs, in case your computer is also poisoned, and it will occur on April 26, and the damage caused will be much greater than that of my computer." Lu Lulu still remembered Xu Yunsong's words before singing, and said to Lu Xiaoping.
"Hmm." Lu Xiaoping nodded, got up and walked out of Lu Lulu's room, picked up the phone at home and called.
"I'm Xiaoping, is your Director Huang here? …… Absence? You inform him that I'm looking for him in the afternoon for something. Lu Xiaoping called directly to the Jiangzhou Municipal Information Department and wanted to talk to Huang Dazheng, the director of the Information Department, about the CIH virus.
…………
In the afternoon, the propaganda activities were still going on in Hongchen Square, although there were a few groups of competitors in the middle who sent troublemakers, but these people were wittily dealt with by the employees of Xuanne Company, and did not have much impact on the publicity activities, Tang Xinyu and Gu Wolf became the two most idle people on the scene, and in the afternoon, the two went back to the company.
After returning to the company, Gu Wolf opened the Xuanni forum in his office, looked at the download of the killing tool he put on the Internet, and found that the number of downloads had exceeded 100,000, in fact, the killing tool was a peak period on the first and second days of his posting, and after these two days, the number of downloads began to decline rapidly, so, a week later, the number of downloads of the killing tool reached 100,000.
He opened the homepage of the Xuan Ne forum again, and he saw that there were many people posting here, saying that they used the CIH killing tool provided by the Xuan Ne Company, and found that their computer was infected with the CIH virus, and expressed their gratitude to the Xuan Ne Company.
Gu Wolf opened one of the posts, looked at the words of gratitude in it, and a smile appeared on his face, this feeling of being thanked after helping others is really good, he has gradually liked it, last year he raised money for his younger brother, and was willing to be a hacker hidden in the dark, hiding in a simple rental house all day long, and the fearful past experience has gradually disappeared, and now he is sitting in a large office, doing what he likes openly, enjoying the praise of others, He felt that this was the life he wanted.
"It's a blessing to be able to meet Xiao Yuan." He has had such thoughts in his mind more than once, and he has cherished his current work and life more and more, and will never allow anyone to destroy it.
After sitting in the office for a while, Tang Xinyu came to look for him.
"Gu wolf, good news." Tang Xinyu said after entering the door.
"What's the good news?" Gu Wolf asked.
"Just now, Lu Xiaoping, secretary general of the municipal government, called and said that let's give them a lecture on computer security, focusing on the CIH virus, it seems that our propaganda campaign has worked, the government's business has been monopolized by the old antivirus software company Rheinland, this time will be an opportunity for us to open up the government market, we must seize it." Tang Xinyu said.
"Great, I'll find someone to prepare the speech right away." Gu Wolf was also very excited when he heard this.
"I have already arranged for someone to do it, in order to show our attention, when the time comes, you, the CTO, will personally go into battle to tell those officials and masters." Tang Xinyu said.
"No problem, I'll tell you personally." Gu Wolf said.
"Okay, let's discuss some of the details to pay attention to when the time comes." Tang Xinyu said again.
After discussion, Tang Xinyu and Gu Wolf went through all aspects of the explanation, from the content of the explanation, to the language of the explanation, and the issues that have been paid attention to, and finally finalized a plan.
An hour later, Gu Wolf stood in front of the projection screen of the second conference room of the Jiangzhou Municipal Government in high spirits, and gave a 40-minute concise and popular computer security lecture to the leaders of the Jiangzhou Municipal Government attending the meeting, winning a full house.
Finally, Lu Xiaoping, Secretary-General of the Municipal Government, made a concluding speech.
"First of all, on behalf of the city government, I am honored to have such a socially responsible company as Genne in our city......
When he said this, Lu Xiaoping glanced at Huang Dazheng, director of the information department attending the meeting, intentionally or unintentionally, and this fat-headed and fat-brained guy suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
“…… If it weren't for the fact that my daughter had received a free copy of the materials and a set of free anti-virus CDs from the company's public service campaign, I wouldn't have known about the CIH virus, let alone that many of the government's computers had been infected with the virus, and if these viruses broke out on April 26th, we would have faced heavy losses......"
“…… We might as well look at things more broadly, our city has been in the forefront of the national information construction, government agencies, as well as the city's large and small enterprises and institutions, have begun to gradually popularize computer office, so how many of these computers are infected with the CIH virus, if these infected computers break out on April 26, it is foreseeable, it will be a disaster......
“…… Therefore, this matter must arouse our great attention, and I suggest that the city government should take the lead in the Xuanne Company and unite several other network security companies in the city to carry out a comprehensive CIH virus inventory in the city, and at the same time increase publicity efforts to strive to remove all CIH viruses from all computers in the city before April 26......
Lu Xiaoping's speech is not long, but the meaning to express is very clear, and his words, also marked a city-wide, and then spread to the whole country CIH virus round-up campaign in full swing, in this campaign, Xuan Ne company undoubtedly played a leading role, its reputation has also become a household name from a small fame in the computer security industry, for a while, this is a miracle for a new company that has just been established for less than a year, with total assets of less than 100 million.
It's just that Sai Weng lost his horse, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, Xiao Yuan didn't expect it, Tang Xinyu and Gu Wolf naturally couldn't imagine that when this movement pushed the prestige of Xuanne Company to a commanding height, a crisis that almost completely destroyed Xuanne Company also quietly came.
