. At present, there are still 555 hackers who stay in the temporary voice communication channel of Black.Watch. If Black.Watch accepts all hackers who pass more than two tests, it will cost about $5.7 million per month and about $68 million per year.

Does this cost a lot?

For the average person, of course, an astronomical amount!

However, for Mirui Technology Group, this is not a huge expense, and Mirui Technology Group's ability to absorb gold is very strong, and it can fully bear the cost of 68 million yuan a year.

In the face of Shi Lei's inquiry, Rafael organized his speech and spoke, "Stone, we can admit students on the basis of merit, and those who are not selected by us can choose to become peripheral members of the OR ordinary level, and once we need them to perform tasks, we can temporarily pay an additional bonus." ”

Shi Lei began to analyze the plan that Rafael said, although Mirui Technology Group can indeed afford to spend $68 million a year, but except for Tao Wenxian, neither Shi Lei nor Raphael want to pay this fee.

This is not the reason why Shi Lei and Raphael are stingy, but the various tangled factors.

The first reason has already been explained, if the Black.Watch is too high-profile, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not attract a lot of attention, especially the NSA.

There is another important reason, and it is also a key point!

If Black.Watch uses a lot of money directly. 555 hackers were recruited, how do you guarantee that they belong? How do you make sure that when you need to recruit members in the future, you won't pay a bigger price?

The image of people who are stupid and easy to cheat. Once formed, Black.Watch's wisdom will be ruined!

How could Shi Lei want to make Black.Watch like that?

"Raphael, how can you guarantee that the hacker who was not selected by us is willing to become a peripheral member of the OR ordinary level?" Tao Wenxian questioned Raphael.

Although Tao Wenxian is younger than Raphael, Tao Wenxian has more seniority in Black.Watch, so Raphael explained: "Because of fame and fortune. Because of the money, because of the environment! ”

"Tell me about it in detail!" Tao Wenxian continued to ask.

Shi Lei was concentrating on two things, while listening to the conversation between Tao Wenxian and Raphael. While thinking about how to screen peripheral members. Shi Lei basically agrees with Raphael's Jianyì, or Shi Lei has similar ideas.

"Because of fame and fortune, even if you just become a member of the Black.Watch OR ordinary level, you are also a member of the Black.Watch organization. We've beaten the world's most famous hackers. Thomson. David. We already have the potential to become the world's top hacking organization. We just lack a lot of historical glory. Once we've done a few earth-shattering things, we're one of the top hacking groups in the world. Being a part of it is quite attractive for a large percentage of hackers. Raphael explained.

Later, Rafael continued: "Even if you become a peripheral member of the OR ordinary level, it doesn't mean that you don't have the opportunity to get money. Once we have a big mission, such as Stone's command to be ready to attack the network of the government of the country. The two of us certainly can't make it. Even if we recruit some peripheral members, we can't do it. This kind of thing. Naturally, the more hackers, the better, and we can pay a certain amount of money to issue tasks temporarily. ”

Raphael paused for a moment and spoke again, "Finally, in view of the cyber terror incident created by Mr. M in the country of Vassan, the general environment of cyber security around the world is very unfriendly to hackers. So, what's so bad about being able to join an organization that can provide protection, hacking know-how, and even money, even as a lowest-level peripheral member? ”

Raphael smiled, clapped his hands, and said again, "And the most important thing is that in the Black.Watch organization, the peripheral members of the OR ordinary level are not without promotion qualifications. Similarly, it is not impossible for members of the EL elite level and the EX transcendent level to be downgraded. With the exception of members of the LE Legend rank, as well as members whose identity is unilaterally known, other members can be promoted or demoted according to their ranks. ”

Tao Wenxian fell into deep thought, although Tao Wenxian mentioned that all 555 hackers were included in Black.Watch, he was not unaware of right and wrong, and was unreasonable.

After some careful consideration, Tao Wenxian finally nodded with a sigh, and he had to admit that Raphael's proposal was better, not only reducing the possibility of being noticed, but also reducing the cost of the organization.

At the same time, it also improves healthy competition and a sense of belonging within the Black.Watch organization. Especially the high-level members, after all the hard work, successfully won a high position, how can they be willing to leave the organization lightly?

Shi Lei also thought about it for a while, and asked, "Feeney, how many peripheral members do you think we should recruit?" How many peripheral members should be required at the corresponding level? ”

Raphael's proposal naturally considered the relevant issues, and besides, Raphael used to be the fourth giant of the Angel Council, and he had some experience in organizational establishment and structure.

"OR ordinary level members, as well as members who unilaterally have identity information, no matter how many, we will accept as many as possible." Raphael first identified two types of members, with no limit on the number.

OR ordinary level members, do not need Black.Watch to pay any price, just need to provide some hacking technical information, enough to win people's hearts, naturally there are as many as there are, why not do more?

A member who has been unilaterally identified is a fairly loyal member. Since you are willing to reveal your identity to Black.Watch, it certainly shows your loyalty to Black.Watch, and naturally there is no need to limit the number. The more the merrier!

Shi Lei and Tao Wenxian nodded together in affirmation of Raphael's mention.

Raphael continued: "EL elite level members, we can control 60 people; 30 members of the EX transcendent level; The members of the LE Legend level are about 10 people, unless we have a quasi-world-class master or above, we only need 10 people! ”

The information collected by Raphael and displayed it on the virtual transparency screen of the LIP lens information processor, according to the scheme that Raphael had described. The Black.Watch organization consists of 100 members in total, and each month has to bear the expense. Reduced to $1.48 million, the annual expenditure is less than $18 million.

This is an ideal amount of spending, and it's not an unaffordable spending!

Tao Wenxian said weakly: "Is it a little less?" ”

Raphael shook his head, "Quite a few!" It's already a lot! ”

Shi Lei thought for a moment. He affirmed Raphael's Tiyì. "Finney, then deal with it according to your Tiyì! Wait a minute for you to announce this in the Black.Watch voice communication channel! ”

"Good!" Raphael replied simply.

The three of them reopened the bone conduction headphones of the LIP lens information processor, and Raphael sorted out his plan and said it again.

“…… That's probably the case! Raphael made a concluding remarks, "Even if you become a member of the OR ordinary level, don't be discouraged and worried, with your efforts. You also have the opportunity to become an EL Elite member! ”

When Raphael finished speaking, the Black.Watch temporarily voiced the channel inside. Once again, 30 hackers left, apparently a part of the hackers were not satisfied with Raphael's plan.

For the hackers who left, Shi Lei did not plan to delve into it, Black.Watch is an open organization, not a brainwashed 'ship school' organization, which can only enter and cannot leave.

In the temporary voice communication channel, many hackers use text to speak, asking Black.Watch about the rules for selecting peripheral members.

Raphael saw this question and explained with a smile, "The specific rules need to be kept secret, but I can reveal one thing, we give priority to unorganized free hackers. For hackers who are already members of other organizations, even those at the core of other organizations, we will lower their selection priorities. ”

With Raphael's explanation, the number of online people in the temporary voice communication channel was rapidly decreasing again. And, this time the reduction is quite large!

Of the original 555 online hackers, 30 hackers left for the first time, leaving 525 hackers. Now, in just one minute, 194 hackers have left, leaving only 331 hackers.

The ten core members of the second-generation hacker group of the Xia Kingdom and the hacker alliance took the initiative to leave the temporary voice communication channel of Black.Watch.

The fourth black wolf in the alliance originally thought that he would earn an extra $10,000 a month, but he didn't expect Black.Watch to play this trick, which made the black wolf very dissatisfied, and complained in the encrypted voice communication channel of the hacker alliance: "Damn Black.Watch, they are completely deceiving everyone!" ”

The black wolf's complaints resonated at the core of the Hacker Alliance, and even the black knives smelled a little dissatisfied.

On the contrary, the Black Panther's cousin was very calm, standing from the perspective of a neutral person, and judged: "Actually, the Black.Watch organization's approach can be understood! After all, their money is not blown by the wind, how can it be sent out casually? ”

In the temporary voice communication channel of Black.Watch, Shi Lei interjected: "Do you still have friends who want to leave?" If there are friends who want to leave, we will not stop them in any way. ”

The 331 hackers stayed in the temporary voice communication channel of Black.Watch, and no one else continued to leave, and Shi Lei did not hesitate to announce the list of 100 hackers that had been selected.

After the list was announced, the temporary voice communication channel lifted the speaking restriction and anyone could speak and ask questions. The hackers, who were not selected, began to ask their own questions.

After almost two hours of questions and answers, only 217 hackers decided to stay. Among them, there are only 8 LE legend level; The EX transcendent level is full of 30 recruits; The EL elite level is also full of 60; The remaining 119 hackers were all classified as OR ordinary level, and among them, there were many hackers who actually had the strength to become members of the EX transcendent level, but Black.Watch's merit-based admission principle gave up the kind of candidates who were already members of other hacker groups, so that he could only become a member of the OR ordinary level.

So far, Black.Watch's recruitment of peripheral members has finally been a complete success, and a conspiracy is also underway around Black.Watch....
