Chapter 21: The Hackathon
The next day, Xiao Tao got up early, the first to go downstairs to pick them up to the nanny car to go to the competition, and two other classmates also got into the car, and then the driver started the car, Xiao Tao said busily:
"Anyone hasn't arrived."
The driver said, "Ah that, I received a notice in the morning that you have two players going by yourself, what, don't you know?" ”
Xiao Tao looked back at the other two classmates suspiciously, and one of them said embarrassedly:
"Well, yes, Tu Ling has a headache, saying that he will go over with Leng Ruoyi later, and he won't be with us..."
Xiao Taoxin said: "It's really good, I know that I still drink so much wine in the competition, it depends on how you wait for the competition." ”
In other words, the car drove for less than 10 minutes to arrive at the place of the competition - the World Financial Building. In fact, it is okay to go through this way, but helplessly, with the rapid development of Internet technology, network information security has become one of the areas that the country and enterprises focus on and cultivate, so the top hackers are held in the palm of their hands, and their feet cannot touch the ground... Entering the main entrance of the building, a large crystal lamp about three floors long hangs above the hall, and I got on the elevator to the 57th floor, as soon as the door opened, I saw that the venue was already full of reporters and media, and a high display board stood in front of it, which was reflected by the spotlight, and it said "Cloud Hacker Competition", which means: from the perspective of the cloud, block all loopholes.
The competition is sponsored by the Ministry of Cyber Security of the People's Republic of China, sponsored by the world's top three software companies, and the participants are the world's top hacker teams from China, Russia, the United States, France, Switzerland, Germany, Japan, South Korea, etc. Xiaotao and they participated in the competition as the student representatives of the AI Century this time, and there was no team. Xiao Tao approached the display board, looked at the participating teams displayed on it, and saw Deep Team, a low-key and mysterious organization in the hacking world, which was once evaluated by Forbes magazine as "more than twice as many Apple vulnerabilities as Apple's entire security team", the holder of the previous hacker championship championship. She looked up at these legendary god-level clans~
After a while, the three of them were brought into the arena by the staff, and the machines that looked like F1 cars were arranged in a staggered manner, which was a computer and chair seat integrated for hackers, and the fuselage was dazzling with blue light lines, which was not too cool~ The hackers who participated in the competition were basically teenagers, and most of them were thin, fair-skinned, slender and tall, and the overall appearance was very high, which made people look like I felt pity, Xiao Taozi said:
"This is the result of facing the computer in the house for many years, not seeing the sun, not eating on time, and making up some protein powder when you are hungry~"
Finding his own machine, Xiao Tao sat in, adjusted his most comfortable posture, almost all the contestants were seated, and there were more than 10 minutes to start the game, Xiao Tao looked at the door worriedly, thinking:
"This Tu Ling shouldn't have a headache, can't come~"
As soon as I thought of this, I saw a young man wearing black T and black slacks at the door, wearing a black peaked cap, and a middle-aged man in a brown suit greeted him, took the young man's hand and said:
"Why did you come, Tu Ling, I still have a lot to say to you, wait for me when the game is over~"
As he spoke, he took Tu Ling to the machine, and held the machine for Tu Ling to sit in...
After Tu Ling sat down, Xiao Tao immediately put away his gaze and lowered his head to pretend to be familiar with his computer. 10 minutes later, the organizer announced the start of the competition, because the keyboard is in touch screen mode, so the whole arena can be heard quietly the players scrambling to breathe~
This competition project is aimed at the global Internet financial system, and what needs to be attacked is the financial network system provided by different countries on six continents, covering all operations such as payment, transfer, transaction and other operations of Internet ports such as banks, trusts, securities, funds, etc. At the beginning of the game, Xiao Tao quickly logged in his ID, as if every cell built into his body had become a code, integrated into the computer, to search for those loopholes that he wanted to hide, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the screen on the right hand side used to broadcast the results in real time, on which almost Tu Ling's record was swiping the screen: 7 seconds to break the Standard Chartered browser, 11 seconds to break the Citi payment system...
The total score has reached 311 points, which is 120 points higher than the second place! Xiao Tao was shocked, and said in his heart:
"This is to book the rhythm of the champion in advance~ After being drunk all night, can my brain be so clear, I rely on, did I grow up eating code?" Xiao Tao's first swear talk turned out to be dedicated to Tu Ling's technique...
After 4 hours of concentrating on the game, Xiaotao felt that his eyes, neck, and hands were almost no longer his own... Slumped in a chair and didn't want to move. The middle-aged man in a brown suit walked towards Tu Ling with a smile, and said to Tu Ling and the wind drizzle who was moving his finger joints:
"Have you thought about it? When will you come to our team? ”
Tu Ling rubbed his neck with one hand, tilted his head and said coquettishly: "Brother Qi, I haven't graduated yet~"
The middle-aged man was amused, patted Tu Ling's head, and said: "Don't fool me, how can you say that your school has graduated, besides, with your current technology, you can open a hacker school by yourself and be the principal, and you are still soaking in the school to be a little doll." ”
Tu Ling smiled: "Brother Qi, don't put a high hat on me, this time the champion is not your Deep Team." ”
When Xiao Tao heard this, he said in his heart: "It turns out that this person is DT, Brother Qi... Could he be the founder and CEO of DT..."
I only heard the middle-aged man smile again: "The team number one must be us, but the individual number one must be you, so you see that after you come to our team, you will be the double first." ”
Tu Ling smiled and said nothing, suddenly, someone came and called the middle-aged man away, and before leaving, he also told Tu Ling to think about it and wait for his news at any time~ Tu Ling just closed his eyes and rested for a while, and another foreigner came over, Xiaotao heard an interview with this foreigner before the start of the game, he was the head of the American team, at this time Tu Ling was chatting with him in a standard London accent, probably because the person wanted to buy out the ownership of Tu Ling's breakthrough technology at a high price, but Tu Ling refused, and then the man left not very happy.
Tu Ling might have been annoyed by the people here, so he got up and went out. Anyway, he didn't look at Xiao Tao sitting next to him when he went out until he entered the door, Xiao Tao wanted to say hello and care about his head and still have a headache, but he was directly ignored, Xiao Tao looked at Tu Ling's back, and said in his heart:
"Hey~ It's also difficult for him, such a lovely person who is loved by thousands of people in school and stars in the hacker world, but he wants to get drunk for Leng Ruoyi, crying and crying, oh yes, Leng Ruoyi, is he here?"
In other words, Leng Ruoyi was in another room as a referee, Xiao Tao suddenly remembered him, so he ran to the referee's room, pushed open a crack in the door, and saw Tu Ling sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed, and Leng Ruoyi and other referees processing data. Xiao Tao gently closed the crack in the door, didn't go in, and thought:
"It shouldn't be my business."
So, I took out my mobile phone, dialed my father's number, and asked my father to pick her up~
