Chapter 12: Trading
Zhou Hongwei's movements were very fast, and at about five o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, he rushed to the café that Chen Mo said. After receiving the call, Chen Mo took his computer and materials and immediately went to the café.
His rental house is not far from the café, a five-minute walk away.
After entering the café, Chen Mo looked around. There were not many people in the café, only a few people, and Chen Mo recognized Zhou Hongwei and a few people sitting in the corner at a glance.
"Mr. Zhou, hello." Chen Mo walked over, smiled and stretched out his right hand.
Seeing Chen Mo, Zhou Hongwei had surprise in his eyes. The voice is very familiar, it is Chen Mo who is talking to him, but he is a little too young.
"Hello, Mr. Chen."
After a few words of greeting with Chen Mo, Zhou Hongwei sat back in his seat with him.
"Mr. Chen, I want to see the procedure you said in person." Zhou Hongwei went straight to the topic, and even a little impatient.
"Yes, but I don't have a computer with a virus." Chen Mo said.
"We're ready."
Zhou Hongwei nodded to the assistant next to him, and the assistant took out two computers from his backpack and put them on the table.
Two computers, both with images locked by iron doors.
Chen Mo was not ambiguous, took out the USB flash drive, inserted it into the computer and knocked it a few times. After two minutes, when the reading bar is complete, the computer's screen changes back to the familiar Windows desktop.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Hongwei's face was overjoyed.
It's true.
The computers with viruses are all prepared by themselves, and they definitely can't fake them. Enduring the anxiety in his heart, Zhou Hongwei continued to watch him check and kill the second computer.
Seeing that the second computer was also back to normal, Zhou Hongwei breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair.
This scene means that the 'Eternal Heart' that has swept the world has been cracked, and it is by the excessively young man in front of him.
"Mr. Chen is so young, is he still studying? A student at Marina University? Zhou Hongwei asked.
"Isn't that important?" Chen Mo smiled lightly.
"It really doesn't matter." Zhou Hongwei smiled: "This program was independently developed by Mr. Chen, right?" Are you really young and promising, are you interested in working in our company? ”
"I don't have any plans to do that just yet." Chen Mo said without being arrogant or humble: "Let's get into the topic." ”
Zhou Hongwei looked at Chen Mo carefully, this young man, his bearing and conversation, were much stronger than the young people he had ever seen, and he was definitely a rare talent.
"Then let's get to the point, Mr. Chen is preparing to sell the program, right? How much? ”
"Not much, 80 million."
Hiss......
As soon as Chen Mo's price came out, everyone who heard it gasped and looked at him in surprise.
"Mr. Chen, will this price be a little higher?" Zhou Hongwei said with a smile.
"If it's too high, forget it." Chen Mo shrugged his shoulders and put the USB flash drive back into his backpack: "I'll go back and contact the people of Penguin, maybe they will be interested." ”
"Mr. Chen, don't worry." Zhou Hongwei immediately stopped Chen Mo: "Your price is indeed a bit high." Contact the penguin and they won't give you that price either. ”
"How do you know if you don't try?" Chen Mo said: "The Eternal Heart has indirectly caused tens of billions of dollars in losses around the world. ”
"In this way, a fixed price, 10 million, transfer the technology to me, and sign the contract now." Zhou Hongwei said.
"Forget it." Chen Mo said: "At present, there is no antivirus method in the world, if your company is the first to release software that can detect and kill the 'Eternal Heart', I will gain fame and fortune, and I will already suffer a loss at this price." ”
"Thirty million, that's the bottom line." Zhou Hongwei said: "There are only nearly one million infected computers in the world, and our company is not profitable. ”
"Word of mouth and reputation, this is the key, Mr. Zhou won't be so superficial, right?" Chen Mo said: "If not, then I will contact other companies." This program should increase the market value of Penguin or Qiandu a lot. ”
Zhou Hongwei didn't expect Chen Mo to be so slippery at such a young age. But this antivirus program can indeed make their company fame and fortune, especially at the node of the global virus crisis.
If the program is ceded to the opponent, their company will lose an opportunity.
"To be honest, we don't necessarily make 80 million profits from your program."
"Seventy million, no less." Chen Mo said.
"Wait, sixty million." Zhou Hongwei said: "We are publishing a free program, and we can't make much profit at all. ”
"You guys are free, it has nothing to do with me, you can also charge for it." Chen Mo got up and prepared to leave.
"Wait, 70 million, deal." Zhou Hongwei immediately spoke.
"This is the contract and technical information."
Chen Mo sat back in his seat, took out a USB flash drive and two contracts from his computer bag, and put them in front of Zhou Hongwei.
Seeing what had been prepared, Zhou Hongwei was stunned. The young man, as if he had guessed at the beginning, would give in.
Let the lawyer next to him carefully read the contract, and after making sure that there is no problem, he looked at Chen Mo: "I didn't expect such a talented young man to come out in China." ”
"Winning prizes, this program, made by accident, is all luck."
"Huh?"
Zhou Hongwei didn't expect Chen Mo to say such a set, leaving him speechless. The virus that has no solution in the whole world, it is said that it is luck that it falls into his hands, and no one believes it when it is said.
"If that's fine, sign the contract." Chen Mo said.
"Yes."
After signing the contract, Zhou Hongwei also asked people to transfer money to Chen Mo on the spot.
Seeing the long string of numbers sent by the bank text message, Chen Mo laughed. This is his first pot of gold, earned with his own hands.
After deducting personal income tax, there are also more than 56 million. Chen Mo was still thinking about how to spend this money.
"It's a pleasure to work with." Chen Mo shook hands with Zhou Hongwei: "I have deleted the program data here, your data is a unique product, remember to back it up, I'll go first." ”
"Not eating?"
"No, I'll get back in touch."
After saying goodbye to Zhou Hongwei, Chen Mo left the café with his books on his back.
"Pass the program back to the technical department, call them to inform them, bind the code of the antivirus program to Guard, and prepare to update Guard."
After Zhou Hongwei instructed his assistant, he looked at the door where Chen Mo had left and fell into deep thought.
At seven o'clock in the evening of the same day, a message posted by Seven Tigers Weibo.
Seven Tigers has worked out a program to kill the 'Eternal Heart', and is currently undergoing the final emergency processing, and after completion, it will be released as soon as possible, as always, free of charge and free of charge.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation in the online world, and Seven Tigers' Weibo also attracted praise and recognition from countless netizens.
"The history is strikingly similar, the Seven Tigers have found the program software to kill the 'Eternal Heart', and a computer manager is still releasing news of playing games."
"Conscientious enterprise, I'll change the antivirus software now."
"This time I support the Seven Tigers."
……
This incident also deservedly made headlines in major media.
It all happened without warning.
At the moment, things about the 'Eternal Heart' are all hot topics. The news of the Seven Tigers was quickly discovered by the media and spread throughout the country in a very short period of time.
When the news was released, some TV stations that were broadcasting live news also urgently inserted this latest news. This news was also posted on foreign social networking sites in the shortest possible time.
The whole online world is boiling.
This 'Eternal Heart' ransomware incident is almost the largest kidnapping incident in the online world. Nearly one million computers worldwide are infected with viruses. It is mainly concentrated in important areas such as government departments, energy companies, railway companies, banks, hospitals, universities, trading venues, etc.
It's been almost seven days since the incident, and there's no way to get rid of the 'Eternal Heart' unless you reinstall the system. But reinstalling the system means that all the data in the computer will be lost, which is unacceptable for some people.
The news released by the Seven Tigers is undoubtedly a booster. Those who were ready to pay the ransom to the hackers stopped and waited for Seven Tigers to release an antivirus program.
