Chapter 118 Instead, Yuanjie Intelligent Control became famous all over the world overnight
Hearing the answer from Lu An, Li Fengting stopped talking and ended the video call after chatting a few words.
A moment later, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Lu An responded and looked up, Meng Qiuyan opened his office door.
She stood at the door and poked her head in, glanced at Lu An and said, "There are still 10 minutes left in the press conference."
Meng Qiuyan saw him nodding, closed the door immediately, and turned around to do other things.
Ten minutes later.
Lu An arrived at the company's temporary press conference.
Although it was an impromptu press conference, more than 400 media came to the scene.
Logically speaking, the time is so tight that most media will definitely not be able to make it. It would be great to have a hundred media here.
The reason why so many media were present is because the news made world news headlines in the Western Hemisphere last night.
Many domestic media organizations learned of this explosive breaking news and arranged for reporters from the nearest Jianing City to come to the city overnight. If you don’t even feel this way about such explosive breaking news, you don’t have to work in the media.
At this moment, as soon as Lu An appeared at the press conference, the media reporters who came to the scene suddenly became agitated. The shutters of the cameras in their hands exploded continuously, and the camera flashes kept shining on Lu An.
Under the focus of everyone's eyes and cameras, Lu An was seen calmly and calmly walking towards the podium.
He picked up the microphone on the podium and patted the microphone to make sure it was OK.
Lu An also had no ink at all. He faced the media people present with a serious smile, and his voice immediately spread throughout the audience:
"I am Lu An, the founder of Yuanjie Intelligent Control."
"We have learned that a so-called "10 billion US dollar crack bounty" issued by an overseas foundation organization is undoubtedly a serious violation of international intellectual property rights protection laws and basic business ethics. It is an illegal act and a gross destruction of the order of scientific and technological innovation. "
“We condemn this in the strongest possible terms. The self-proclaimed, civilized and tolerant Xi Fang world is so disrespectful of intellectual property rights and technological innovation. We are shocked and deeply regretful about this.” It is the culmination of the wisdom and hard work of thousands of scientific and technological personnel, developers, and engineers, and embodies our cutting-edge breakthroughs in the fields of material science, information security, and hardware engineering. "
“Any attempt to crack is not only doomed to be futile, but may also trigger the preset and irreversible security defense mechanism, causing permanent damage to the target device and related systems, and facing severe legal consequences.”
"Metaverse has initiated the highest level security and legal response procedures. We solemnly warn any individual or organization that attempts to respond to this illegal bounty. Metaverse will use all legal and technical means to resolutely defend its legitimate rights and interests and pursue them to the end."< br/>
h "We have always adhered to a cooperative attitude and welcome friends and business colleagues from all over the world to communicate and discuss the possibility of cooperation."
h "But cooperation must be based on mutual respect for intellectual property rights and compliance with international rules."
“Metaverse Intelligent Control welcomes constructive technical exchanges and resolutely opposes any form of illegal theft and vandalism.”
Lu An finished his statement and immediately turned around and left the podium.
Hundreds of reporters present immediately stood up and asked questions loudly, wanting to jump on the stage and chase after Lu An to ask. The press conference was immediately drowned in the noise, but Lu An finished the statement and left the meeting without looking back.
He did not accept questions from reporters, and the Q&A session was conducted by the company spokesperson.
One hour later, the official website of Metaverse Intelligent Control released a concise but stern solemn statement in response.
Major media also cited reports, and this statement soon appeared on the front pages of global media.
Lu An naturally knew that issuing this statement would not have any substantive effect, and it was impossible for the "Prometheus" Foundation to cancel the global bounty order with just a statement.
But this statement cannot be left out, it must be there.
· Yuanjie Intelligent Control issued a solemn statement, and its biggest role is to firmly control the moral high ground.
The Prometheus Foundation’s global bounty order of tens of billions of dollars is definitely the most explosive news event so far in 2016, and it is a global sensation.
Originally, Metaverse Intelligent Control was only well-known in China, but it was not actually well-known internationally. It was only well-known in foreign technology circles.
The general public abroad basically do not know the existence of this company.
But the announcement of Prometheus's sky-high tens of billions of dollars bounty caused such a huge sensation, and actually made Yuanjie Intelligent Control famous all over the world overnight.
Already well-known in the country, now it is even more famous.
In the world, everyone now knows that there is a high-tech company called "Yuanjie Intelligent Control" from a large Eastern country. Its technology is so good that a mysterious foundation organization has spent tens of billions of dollars to issue a global reward order to crack the core technology of Metaverse Intelligent Control.
This can be called the strongest technical certification and the strongest GG promotion in history. The key is that Metaverse Intelligent Control does not need to pay a dime of GG fees.
As soon as the news came out, the capital market also set off a huge wave.
Today is the stock market trading day. The A-share market opened in the morning, and the stock price of Wanxiang Huitong fluctuated violently within half an hour of the opening.
First, it plummeted -9.46% due to panic and was close to the lower limit. However, when it was about to hit the lower limit, it was immediately pulled back by strong buying orders. Finally, it bucked the trend and closed the daily limit, leaving a quasi-ground market.
The opening explosion caught investors off guard, fearing that Metaverse Intelligent Control’s technological monopoly barriers would be broken.
But investors then thought, No! This is not right!
The Prometheus Fund issued a global bounty order at a sky-high price of US$10 billion. This is simply the strongest endorsement of the value of Metaverse’s intelligent control technology. Even its opponents are willing to pay such a sky-high price!
As a result, the stock price of Wanxiang Huitong, which holds 15% of the controlling stake of Yuanjie Zhi, quickly weakened and strengthened.
More and more investors reacted and began to rush for funds, directly pushing the stock price from near the lower limit to the upper limit.
The market outlook also exceeded the three-day daily limit, and the four-day daily limit in four days. Although the market was broken on the fifth trading day, it once exceeded the five-day daily limit during the session.
Wanxiang Huitong’s share price once reached a price of 378.37 yuan, and its market value climbed to 179.7 billion.
Due to the circuit breaker mechanism in the stock market at the beginning of the new year, Wanxiang Huitong was once again hit by emotions. The lowest price fell to a panic bottom of 188.50 yuan. Now it has doubled from the bottom.
Looking at the global capital market, stocks of companies related to network security, cryptography, and material science have generally experienced surges in recent days.
Capital has poured into fields that may be related to "cracking."
If you can successfully crack it, you will not only win the sky-high reward of tens of billions of dollars, but you will also be able to become famous all over the world.
In the depths of the dark web, traffic to various encrypted forums and chat rooms has surged.
Those legendary hacker IDs, top hardware cracking teams, and even some "scientific research outsourcing" organizations with international backgrounds that have been dormant for many years have all started to move.
The temptation of astronomical cash prices of tens of billions of dollars is enough to make any rules and risks pale.
In the laboratories of many top universities around the world, professors are surrounded by eager doctoral students and postdoctoral fellows, and many "special research plans" with the topic of "cracking Metaverse Defense" have been drafted and submitted.
In the hardware geek forum, some people started crowdfunding to purchase second-hand Xiaoyuan robots for destructive experiments. Various cracking theories and design drawings based on limited public information are flying everywhere, true and false.
From ultra-low temperature freezing to inhibit the reaction of active materials, to injecting quantum noise to interfere with logic mazes, various operations are simply imaginative.
Even some people or groups who are not engaged in technology research and development want to get involved in the face of this sky-high price bounty. Although they cannot engage in physical technology, they can physically tie people up.
This battle has not yet begun. The air is filled with not only the temptation of money, but also the smell of gunpowder that touches the boundaries of technical ethics and law.
There is no doubt that Yuanjie Intelligent Control is undoubtedly the center of this global storm at the moment.
But contrary to outside expectations, the company did not panic when faced with this unexpected incident. After holding a press conference and issuing a statement, it became calm and took no other actions.
As for Lu An, he had already arranged the follow-up matters and ignored the matter.
The outside world has exploded because of the sky-high price of tens of billions of dollars. Many media and countless netizens are worried about Yuanjie Intelligent Control. However, the outside world does not know that Lu An does not take this matter too seriously at all. If he takes it too seriously, he will enter the rhythm of his opponents.
Lu An has abandoned the noise from the outside world. He leads a technical team to develop "nano lattice adaptive alloy" materials.
· Breaking through the "Metal Impossible Triangle" problem is one of the current technology development tasks, and this is the business.
But it is worth mentioning that the technical employees working at Metaverse Intelligent Control are somewhat proud of the tens of billions of dollars in bounty offered.
Your status in the industry has also been improved invisibly. When others hear that you are a technical developer of Metaverse Intelligent Control, they immediately give you a thumbs up.
Now Metaverse Intelligent Control is already the most representative world-class high-tech company in people's eyes. If you can work in this company, it will be a high-profile resume.
