Ibeka caught up with Lin Qiangsheng and said, "Lin, your short film is very exciting, I really didn't expect you to have such a good idea!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said, "Thank you!" ”

He hadn't seen Ibeka for several days, and this woman usually "protected" him closely, and he didn't know what he was busy with in the past two days, but this woman's every move was watched by Esther, and Lin Qiangsheng was a little relieved.

Ibeka asked, "Lin, do you really think that laptops and mobile phones, as well as trip computers, will develop like that in the future?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said to her: "I believe that with the development of IT technology, future technology products will become more and more digital and miniaturized!" ”

Ibeka asked, "How much do you know about GPS?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng was surprised for a moment and said: "I don't know very much, I only know that GPS is a technology for satellite networking projects and precise guidance of ground receiving equipment." In '84, the Reagan administration has announced that once GPS is built, it will be open to the public, and I believe that the civilian market for GPS will be very broad in the future. After the GPS is opened to the public, it will be more convenient for the public to travel and travel. ”

Ibeka couldn't hear anything from Lin Johnson's words, these were some open news. The two walked into the elevator and were silent for a moment, then she said to Lin Qiangsheng: "Lin, Mary Gretel is coming to California to communicate with you about an important matter, and it is expected to arrive at noon!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Is there anything important to communicate with me, and you need her to come over in person?" ”

Ibeka looked at Lin Qiangsheng, looked at his expression carefully, and said, "It's about mobile phones and computers!" She smiled at Lin Qiangsheng and refused to say anything more.

Lin Qiangsheng thought about it in his heart, he needed a senior agent of the CIA to come forward, and this was not an ordinary meeting.

In the midst of uneasiness. Mary Gretel arrived in Silicon Valley, and she was accompanied by a large group of people, all with stern faces. Several of them have a military temperament, which surprised Lin Qiangsheng.

Mary stepped aside. The bespectacled white man in the middle appeared, and she introduced to Lin Qiangsheng: "This is the deputy director of the Defense High-tech Defense Program Bureau of the Ministry of Defense, Mr. Ashton Carter!" ”

Lin Johnson shook hands with Ashton and said, "Welcome to Mr. Carter!" He guessed that the deputy director probably had the rank of lieutenant colonel or colonel, a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Defense.

Ashton said very kindly: "Hello, Mr. Lin! I am looking forward to meeting you, I have long heard that there is a young Chinese in the IT industry who has achieved extraordinary achievements! ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said, "Mr. Carter if you are interested." I would like to take you to a brief visit to Dongxing Semiconductor! ”

Ashton nodded and said, "Okay, I'm looking forward to it!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng saw that this high-ranking official from the Pentagon was very stylish, and Mary and others followed behind him, and he knew that this so-called high-tech defense planning bureau of the Ministry of National Defense was definitely an institution with greater power than the sky.

During the visit, Ashton kept introducing the security of the United States to Lin Qiangsheng, and said to Lin Qiangsheng very worriedly: "With the progress of science and technology, it is more difficult for countries in the field of anti-terrorism and counter-espionage, and the use of high technology to spy on each other's economic, scientific and technological and military intelligence between powerful countries has become more and more hidden, which has brought great trouble to the Pentagon!" To this end, the Ministry of Defense has set up a special high-tech defense planning agency. It is to strengthen the security defense of the US homeland, which is a necessary means to prevent high-tech crimes, terrorist attacks, etc.! ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Mr. Ashton." I couldn't agree more with this resolution! ”

Ashton smiled and asked, "Do you really understand the urgency of reality?" ”

"Ugh!" Lin Qiangsheng was stunned for a moment and said: "I still know something about this, preventing competitors from using high-tech to spy on business intelligence and resist unfair competition has always been our key work!" I think this should be somewhat similar to the defense of the country! ”

Ashton looked at Lin Qiangsheng, nodded silently, and said, "Not bad." But it's more thrilling than you think! ”

At this time, Mary said, "Lin, find a secret meeting room." We're going to talk to you individually! ”

Lin Qiangsheng looked at Mary and saw Ashton's stern expression. There was a suddenness in his heart, but he still nodded and said, "Okay, you come with me!" ”

"The chairman's office, it's very safe here, I don't usually come here, but this is definitely one of the most heavily guarded places in the company!"

Lin Qiangsheng turned to Mary and Ashton and said, "It's absolutely safe here!" ”

Mary waved her hand, and several strong men in suits and leather shoes walked into the office, carefully examined them, even the stalls and hidden corners, and then they were allowed to enter.

Mary reintroduced the other two, the electronics engineer of the Ministry of Defense, and after a few people sat down, she said to Lin Qiangsheng: "We know that Dongxing Semiconductor's products include PU, single-chip microcomputers and discrete devices, etc., and your technology products are very popular in the United States, with a large number of users, especially mobile phones, which are comparable to Motorola's product technology!" Compaq and Dell's computers even occupy three or four percent of the market share! ”

She continued to say to Lin Qiangsheng: "There are some things that we think are very important, just take the mobile phone, an important communication tool, we find that criminals often take advantage of its convenience to carry out criminal activities!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng wanted to say something, but he just nodded helplessly.

Mary looked at Lin Qiangsheng and said solemnly: "We must take measures to curb the development of criminal activities, and we must not let mobile phones become a tool for organizing crime!" ”

Everyone present stared at Lin Qiangsheng, and Mary said to him: "Therefore, we hope that you will cooperate with the Pentagon to install a backdoor and monitoring program on Dongxing's mobile phone and PU, so that at a critical moment, you can intercept and obtain illegal information!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng was startled, looked at Mary, then at Ashton, and asked in shock, "Install a backdoor and monitoring program in my product?!" ”

Ashton nodded, changed his friendly attitude, and said word by word: "Mr. Lin, this is not a discussion!" You must comply with the regulations of the federal government, if you run a high-tech enterprise in the United States, produce processors and mobile phones, and sell them to American companies and the public, you must install our backdoor and monitoring program, otherwise the Pentagon has the right to stop your business activities in the United States and its allies! ”

Lin Qiangsheng stared at Ashton, and then Mary said persuasively on the side: "Lin, you'd better think carefully before making a decision, this is related to the core interests of national security!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded, he thought about it, looked at the expressions of several people, obviously he couldn't get around this level, the U.S. government installed a backdoor on the chip and installed a monitoring program on the device, he had only heard of it in his previous life, but this time it was his turn, isn't this to cooperate with the U.S. government in all aspects!

Lin Qiangsheng is not afraid of what will happen to his products after the back door, this is the trend of the times, doing business on other people's turf, you have to abide by other people's rules, he is not angry, of course he understands this truth.

He was afraid that if this problem was exposed by a bastard in the future, such as a stunned young man like Snowden, his business would not suffer huge losses!

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Qiangsheng said with some concern: "There is no problem with installing the backdoor and monitoring program, but in case this matter is exposed to the public, Dongxing products monitor the user's *, which is a great loss to the company!" ”

Ashton said confidently: "Mr. Lin, we are all understanding people. Dongxing's mobile phone originally had a back door, and you can control your own products and realize remote monitoring, am I not right? ”

Lin Qiangsheng was shocked, and immediately retorted: "Mr. Carter, this is a false accusation, you can't talk nonsense!" ”

An electronic engineer sitting next to him said: "Dongxing's mobile phone has a universal unlock code, but in order to prevent someone from cracking, you have set up three groups of five unlock codes each, which jump from time to time, if someone forcibly cracks, as long as you enter the wrong three times, the phone will turn off, and the unlock code will change." However, this is easy for you Dongxing yourself, you can easily crack your own products, realize remote monitoring, remote boot, eavesdropping, and even remote control zhì mobile phone to make calls! ”

Lin Qiangsheng was stunned, he stared at the engineer who spoke, and he couldn't refute it for a while. Dongxing mobile phone is indeed like this, the back door was left at the beginning, but Motorola is too, which machine does not have its own back door!

The engineer's assistant had already taken out a Dongxing mobile phone and a set of equipment, and he said to Lin Qiangsheng: "This is a cracked mobile phone, produced by Dongxing!" ”

"Ugh!" Lin Qiangsheng watched him and his assistant easily turn off and turn on this originally good Dongxing mobile phone with wireless devices, and even make calls.

Lin Qiangsheng gestured helplessly and said, "Stop, it's okay, you don't need to show me again!" ”

He knew that the next step was to turn on the remote eavesdropping function, his own product, how could he not understand.

He looked at Mary and Ashton and said happily, "I agree to your request, open the back door to you, and install the monitoring program!" ”

Mary breathed a sigh of relief and nodded apologetically to Lin Qiangsheng, she didn't want the two sides to have a conflict in her heart, and complicated very simple things, especially the pressure of the Pentagon, which Lin Qiangsheng could not stop.

Ashton nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and shook Lin Qiangsheng, and said, "Mr. Lin, cooperating with the federal government is your wisest decision!" ”

"I hope so, I hope we have a good time working together!" Lin Qiangsheng sighed softly and said dejectedly. (To be continued.) )
