Chapter 14 Barnes Network Technology Group

Just after breakfast, Bucky went to Sister Margaret's Bar, where Wade was already waiting with a CD of Microsoft's new system. For the half a million vacation funds, Wade bought the disc early in the morning and waited for Bucky in the bar.

For the next two days, Bucky spent the day working on his old computer, looking for vulnerabilities in the operating system, and at night in the bar's staff lounge visualizing the starry sky map to exercise his mental strength.

In the past two days, Bucky found a total of nearly 200 vulnerabilities in the Windows 4.0 system, picked 100 at random, and sent them to the mailbox of Microsoft boss Gates by email early in the morning of the third day.

Although Microsoft only published the email address of the company's R&D department in the newspaper, in order to show his strength, Bucky easily hacked into Microsoft's internal network, found Gates's mailbox, and sent his email directly.

In order to avoid trouble, Bucky used hacker methods to locate the IP address of his email inside Microsoft, and did not leave any contact information, but only left a private bank account in the email, waiting for Microsoft to send the money. This private bank was recommended by Wade, and many mercenaries in the United States would choose this bank because this long-established bank never divulges any information about its customers.

After Gates received Bucky's email, he immediately convened a high-level meeting of the company.

"Check, check it for me right away! I want to know what went wrong with our company's network, and I don't know if someone hacked it! Gates was furious at the meeting, and as a computer expert, although he was not good at cybersecurity, Gates still felt that his authority was seriously challenged.

"Also, that guy pointed out a hundred vulnerabilities in Windows 4.0, and if the people in the technical department don't confirm and fix these vulnerabilities today, don't leave work!"

At this time, a vice president next to him cautiously asked Gates: "Do we want to implement the $50,000 reward we promised for each vulnerability?" ”

Until then, the entire Microsoft hierarchy had treated the bounty as an advertisement to promote a new system, which they believed would not be so easy to find, even if it had vulnerabilities, not to mention a one-month time limit. If it keeps its promise, Microsoft will have to pay five million dollars, which is not a small amount even for Microsoft, which has deep pockets.

In this regard, Gates was much more arrogant, and without thinking about it, he made a decision: "Give him 10 million, and it will not hurt us to befriend a hacker of this level!" ”

The big boss spoke, and the efficiency of Microsoft's various departments was surprisingly high, and before the technical department could verify the 100 vulnerabilities, before noon, 10 million dollars were transferred to the account of Barky's private bank.

At this time, Bucky was sitting in an Internet café in New York, doing market research for his future Internet company while waiting for a reply from Microsoft. Wade, on the other hand, wears a new pair of stockings and sits next to Bucky, looking bored. When Wade entered the Internet café wearing stockings, he was almost thought to be a robber by the owner of the Internet café and shot his head with a gun, which forced Wade to put the production of the uniform on the agenda.

At this time, Bucky's private bank sent an email saying that Microsoft's $10 million had arrived.

"Microsoft is really generous, twice as much as promised." Bucky looked at the numbers in the bank and muttered to himself, and Wade was blinded by the long list of bits and pieces.

For the sake of Microsoft's generosity, Bucky decided to be generous himself, and sent nearly 100 vulnerabilities that he had left that had not been sent to Microsoft by email, and this time with a sentence - thank you for Mr. Gates's generosity, I think we will have more opportunities for cooperation in the future.

Now Bucky has forged a new identity, a master's student returning from Cambridge University in England, engaged in computer network research, inheriting the inheritance of nearly 10 million yuan from his distant uncle, and ambitiously coming to New York, ready to start a career.

Of course, Bucky does not have all the documents, including driver's licenses, social security cards, master's degree certificates, inheritance tax forms, etc., but Bucky has hacked into the internal computers of the relevant departments and stored all the information, and now he only needs to reapply for them.

Transferred 500,000 to Wade's account online and sent him home, and when Bucky didn't want to go to the government department to reapply for papers, there was a masked tail behind his buttocks.

In the afternoon, Bucky really enjoyed the efficient service of a servant of the people, not only did he get all the paperwork replaced, but he also had time to buy a small single-family cottage and a nice Cadillac SUV in Brooklyn, which cost less than half a million dollars.

It only took two hours to transfer the house and get the car licensed, and the warm and thoughtful service of the public servants who handled the formalities during the period made Bucky feel the charm of money in this country, and it is no wonder that large enterprises with strong capital like Stark and Osborne have huge influence in all aspects, which also strengthens Bucky's determination to take the road of strength and capital go hand in hand.

In the next two days, Bucky registered Barnes Network Technology Group with his own surname, and successfully registered three subsidiaries with a capital of $1 million each, namely: Qiandu Search, Sobao Shopping and Feixun Chat.

Thanks to the fact that Christmas is approaching, few people choose to register a company on the eve of the holiday season, otherwise it would take a lot of time to register four companies in New York, a metropolis with extremely developed finance, industry and technology......

However, Bucky understands that it is not yet the best time for the development of the network, and the hardware and software of the computer are not able to support the rapid development of the network, so these companies are just a decoration for the time being.

However, Bucky also had a plan for this. Bucky planned to write an entirely new operating system, and the prototype of the operating system was the epoch-making Windows XP that Microsoft launched nearly a decade later. It only needs to weaken some of the functions of Windows XP, and it can run completely with the hardware foundation of the current computer.

Developing this operating system was a big undertaking, and although Bucky had studied the underlying functionality of Windows XP in his previous life and tried to restore its code himself, it was impossible to write it alone.

Whenever he thinks that such a classic operating system can't be done alone, Bucky wishes he could have an AI like Jarvis that can help him program. It's a pity that Bucky doesn't have any technology about artificial intelligence now, maybe in ten years, after all aspects of the Marvel world are mature, Bucky can also develop his own artificial intelligence, but unfortunately it can't be achieved in a short time.

However, Bucky has one more expectation, and that is the knowledge of the Nemesis in the fragments of the Stone of Self. With his mental strength, Bucky has the opportunity to learn that Nemesis has gone through several cosmic eras, and if he's lucky, he might even be able to learn about artificial intelligence.

However, when it comes to artificial intelligence, Bucky can only moderate YY, and now he has decided to write a framework for an operating system in a few months, and then sell this framework for a good price. Bucky, who was sold to Microsoft, Apple, and IBM, planned to exchange this epoch-making operating system for a certain amount of shares, which would facilitate the future development of his own Barnes Network Technology Group.

Unbeknownst to Bucky, Gates is also worried about his company's future in Redmond, on the West Coast of the United States, at Microsoft's headquarters.

In the past two days, most of the nearly 200 system vulnerabilities sent by Bucky have been detected, and it has been proved that these are indeed vulnerabilities in the system, and none of them were fabricated by Bucky. Although it is close to Christmas, these days, all the programmers at Microsoft headquarters are working overtime, and Gates has already said that if these vulnerabilities cannot be solved in 1991, he will definitely let these programmers roll up and get out.

At this time, in the conference room, Gates was listening to the presentations of several executives in the company.

"We couldn't find him through the bank account he left behind, which is a 100-year-old private bank, and I'm afraid even the government can't ask them to hand over the customer's information."

The speaker was a middle-aged woman in her forties, her name is Marina Hall, who is now the head of Microsoft's public relations department. Two days ago, Gates handed over the task of finding Bucky to the PR department, but after two days of hard work, there was no useful information.

In fact, Gates also knows the importance of hiding his identity as a hacker, so he didn't pin his hopes on the public relations department, but looked at Wells Anderson, the manager of the cybersecurity department on the side.

Wells Anderson saw Gates looking at him, and he could only smile bitterly and said: "The strength of the other party is not at the same level as ours, and after two days, we can only confirm that the IP address from which the other party sent the email is in this building, and finally confirmed that the IP address is a computer of our network security department." ”

Wells Anderson's words caused a whisper in the conference room. This time, the Cyber Security Department can be described as a shame, and it was hacked into the internal network without noticing, and finally traced the IP address to its own head.

Gates shook his head and didn't blame anyone from the Cybersecurity Department. He knew in his heart that the strength of the other party was too strong this time, and he could find nearly 200 system vulnerabilities in a few days, and he knew that Windows4.0 had been tested for several months before it went on the market, and he thought that the system vulnerabilities would not be exposed in a short period of time before it was listed.

Gates sighed secretly, fortunately the hacker had no ill will towards Microsoft, otherwise the loss would be unbearable for Microsoft. Thinking that Bucky said at the end of the second email that there might be a chance to cooperate with Microsoft in the future, Gates moved slightly, maybe this would be a chance for Microsoft to go to the next level.
