Chapter 10 Chapter 9 Virus Invasion Produces Distortion

Cheng Jinrun's attitude towards the two Chens was still quite indifferent, but he kept casting surprised glances at the beautiful scenery of Liangchen. I was about to put forward our idea and listen to Cheng Jinrun's opinion, when Huang Tang rushed over angrily and shouted: "Tao Qiquan is in a hurry, I want you to go to the hospital." Because the facts that happened were too strange, I couldn't think about it for a while: "What is he doing in the hospital?" Huang Tang paused: "It's not that he needs to go to the hospital. He is in the hospital because all six of his subordinates are in the hospital! He wants you to go immediately."

I couldn't help being very annoyed: "Go and tell him that my actions are only under my own control and cannot be changed by his will." Huang Tang was startled for a moment, then he gave me a thumbs up—he didn't like Tao Qiquan, a rich man, so he felt that my protest was very reasonable, and I also believed that he would convey my words without difficulty. the meaning of. After Huang Tang left, the computer management expert asked me: "Mr. Wei's name is often associated with some strange things. Is there anything special found here?" He asked very politely, but I stared at him impolitely and asked him back: "Do you also know what happened in the building?"

Cheng Jinrun shrugged his shoulders—he was tall and thin, and he looked very strange when he did this movement. He said: "I know, and I have always reported it to the director, but the director told me not to worry about it. He is As a principal, I am not in this position, and I do not plan for other affairs, so naturally I am not too busy." I heard that there was a lot to say in his words, so I said, "Something happened to the director, did you know?" He nodded: "I heard that he was found at the bottom of the elevator shaft, and he was unconscious." I took a breath: "After the accident, we had a detailed discussion with him. He seemed to be trying to hide something. Is there any tacit understanding between him and the computer? Because we at least found that several things were caused by It was caused by an abnormal control of the computer."

Cheng Jinrun reached out and touched his chin──this person made a lot of small movements: "I know what you are afraid of, but I think it is... Well, most people call it a 'computer virus' intrusion, which partially disrupts the operation of the computer The director really wanted to cover up the situation, because it had something to do with his professional honor. The computer system in this building was undoubtedly invaded by a virus." Liang Chenmei said: "Is there no way to eliminate it?" Cheng Jinrun spread his hands: "Computer viruses are spreading all over the world. So far, no one has been able to eliminate them."

The two Chens were shocked and said, "What will happen to the computer infected by the virus...?" Cheng Jinrun spread his hands again: "No one knows. Generally speaking, computer scholars believe that it is like a virus invading the body of a living thing. Whether it is an animal or a plant, if a virus or bacteria invades, it will make the living thing itself become deformed." When Cheng Jinrun said this, he paused for a while. He is a person with a lot of common sense, which can be confirmed in his conversation.He also said: "For example, smut invades corn, and the corn grows into a bag full of black powder, which is quite different from the original shape. Another example is that the filter virus invades shellfish, and it will make the shell of the shellfish Completely deformed, completely different from the original genetics—at one time, experts in marine biology thought that many new species appeared at the same time."

What Cheng Jinrun said was quite professional, so we all listened very carefully.After he paused for a while, the Chen brothers pointed to the surrounding computer equipment: "So, if the computer is severely invaded by a virus, it will also...become deformed, and will...be out of control?" Cheng Jinrun nodded vigorously: "However, it should be said that people don't know how to control──because it has become different from the original design, for example──" This person likes to give examples in his speech, and an example he gave at this time is even more unbelievable: "For example, someone made a cup, but suddenly the cup became airtight. Naturally, I don’t know how to use this cup.”

For the example he gave, you have to think about it carefully before you can imagine such a strange scene. I waved my hand a little unconsciously: "You mean, this strange mutation has appeared in the computer management system of this building?" Cheng Jinrun looked at me a little puzzled: "Didn't a lot of things happen to prove it?" He said it as a matter of course, but everyone who heard this shuddered a little, and the two Chen immediately shouted: "Stop all computer operations." Cheng Jinrun faced the Chen brothers with a very strange expression, and the two Chens repeated their words again. Cheng Jinrun suddenly sighed: "Mr. Chen, if you do this, the Twin Towers will die."

This person speaks with weirder words than Wen Baoyu. How can the building be described as "dead"?However, after thinking about it for a while, his words are not difficult to understand. What he means is that if you follow what Liang Chen said, the whole building will be paralyzed and become a dead zone. Just imagine, there is no elevator, no air Regulation, what would a building without electricity supply look like? Liangchen Meili really liked the two Chens' decision, and they said firmly, "Let it die." Cheng Jinrun was very surprised: "The best way to stop the operation of the computer is to cut off the power supply, that is a good way to kill it."

Liang Chenmei said again: "Then cut off the power supply." Cheng Jinrun said: "After the power supply is cut off, there is a backup power supply. According to the computer program, once the power supply is cut off, the backup power supply will be automatically replenished to keep the computer running normally." Liang Chenmei's expression also became very surprised. She looked at Cheng Jinrun and wanted to ask, but she couldn't make a sound. The question they want to ask is naturally: "Can't the backup power supply be cut off?" Cheng Jinrun also knew what they wanted to ask, so he answered directly: "The design of the backup power supply is to ensure that there is power supply under any circumstances to ensure that the computer can continue to operate. Therefore, there is a direct connection with the computer in the main power station. Contact, unless the computer in the main power station is stopped, the power will still be supplied."

When he said this, he stopped for a while, and the quarrel moved a few times: "If this is done, about one-third of the city will lose power supply at the same time." We were silent because the situation was so dire that we couldn't stop the computer. No matter what the computer wants to do, humans cannot stop it. Cheng Jinrun also smiled wryly: "When I first came into contact with computers, people didn't know what a computer virus is. They only knew that computers can greatly improve efficiency. Therefore, the design of any computer combination is aimed at the goal that the computer will never stop. Going forward, until today, we have almost reached our goal and achieved perfection, which has formed the current situation." We all looked at each other, and Cheng Jinrun sighed a few times, rubbed his hands, and did not speak anymore.

At this moment, Huang Tang barged in again, yelling, "Wesley! Tao Qiquan wants to find you in person." I snorted: "If he wants to come, let him come." Huang Tang's expression was a bit strange: "His helicopter will land on the top floor of the Twin Towers." When the Chen brothers heard it, they jumped up: "Damn it, who gave him such unscrupulous power?" The two Chens said while looking at me. My thoughts were extremely confused and I was very impatient: "The problem we are facing now is very serious. Tao Qiquan is here. It is just time to discuss it with him. Please don't have any more disputes over emotions." Listening to my words, the Chen brothers were embarrassed to explode, but it could be seen that they still expressed extreme dissatisfaction with Tao Qiquan's unauthorized use of the heliport on the top of the building. At this time, Cheng Jinrun walked to the side again and said, "Go and see if the helicopter has arrived." After walking away for a few steps, he turned his head and explained to me: "This building has closed-circuit television everywhere, except for the boss's private area, which is for safety measures." I couldn't help but smile bitterly—for safety measures, many computer programs were designed to ensure the continuous operation of the computer.However, once the computer goes against the law, there is no security at all. Does this count as cocooning in human behavior? A group of people followed him, and when they arrived at a console, there were many screens as usual. Cheng Jinrun pressed the buttons very skillfully. The middle one had a picture, which was the helipad on the roof. At this time, there was a The helicopter is already landing. Liang Chen snorted: "It came so fast." The helicopter came to a stop, the cabin door opened, and three people came down one after another. Among them was an old man. I knew him. His surname was Yang. I don't know the other two, but the two Chens obviously know who they are, because they snorted again: "Okay, all the troikas of the big group have arrived, how do you get your mind off?" No one came down from the helicopter, and the three of them walked away a few steps, and it was clearly seen that their expressions were very anxious.At this time, I saw someone coming up to meet them, and exchanged a word or two with each other.The people who greeted them were naturally the managers of the Twin Towers. Next, several people walked forward together and walked out of the screen. Cheng Jinrun pressed another button and saw that a group of people had entered the corridor. Er Chen muttered again: "It seems that we still need to use our Dedicated elevator." Liang Chenmei was dissatisfied: "How did you become such a petty person?" The Chen brothers said loudly: "You don't know how much the Dow Group has suffered for us. Look, until now, he wants something from me, and he still puts on airs. He refuses to come, so he only sent three people." Liang Chenmei said coldly: "He didn't ask for you, but for Wesley." Liang Chen said: "Then you should do it yourself." When they were talking, what they saw on the screen was: a group of people were waiting for the elevator, and they were indeed waiting at the door of the special elevator. From the movement of his lips, he knew what he said: "The two Mr. Chen are in the management room in the basement." I translated this sentence literally, and the two Chen said: "The special elevator ends at the lobby, and cannot go down to the lower floor. They have to transfer to the elevator." Judging from the expressions of the two of them, it seems that the three people who came here are also happy to add such a small trouble as transferring to the elevator. This shows how serious the rift between the two parties is. Then, the elevator door opened, a total of four people walked in, and the elevator door closed. Cheng Jinrun turned around: "There is no CCTV in the special elevator, so I can't see their situation in the elevator." Liang Chenmei said: "Look at the situation when they arrive at the lobby." The picture of the lobby is divided into three parts, including the entire lobby. This is the time when the most people come in and out. The elevators are full of people waiting. The exit of the special elevator is at a corner of the lobby, which is relatively quiet. There are two guards guarding and no one is allowed to approach. There is no indicator light outside the door of the special elevator, and Cheng Jinrun reports the situation of the special elevator according to the operation of the computer: everything is normal. When he said "everything is normal", his voice was a little strange.Then, all of us were silent, and the atmosphere was even more weird.Huang Tang asked at this moment: "What are we waiting for?" The two Chens replied without even thinking: "Wait for something to happen..." Liang Chenmei snorted: "Everything is normal, what will happen...?" Liang Chen said: "Who knows—when the audience is watching the circus trapeze or the high-speed racing car, subconsciously, they will have the idea of ​​waiting for something to happen. This is how we are now." When Liang Chen said this, he looked at me, and I smiled wryly: "Yes, each of us now has such thoughts." Huang Tang was shocked: "What will happen?" Cheng Jinrun said a word at this moment: "Anything." Everyone looked at him, and he made an inexplicable gesture: "What happens in the elevator can't be monitored, so anything can happen." When he said this, he was still paying attention to the display of various data on the computer terminal screen, and then murmured several times: "Everything is normal, everything is normal." Liang Chenmei called out again: "Why hasn't it arrived for so long?" Cheng Jinrun said: "That's the psychological effect of your eager waiting - the time from the top floor to the lobby is one hundred and ten seconds, not one second more, not one second less, and now only seventy-four seconds have passed Seconds, the elevator is now on the 25th and 6th floor, as long as everything is normal, it will arrive at the lobby on time, and it will take another second to open the elevator door." He kept talking, and time naturally kept passing. Tens of seconds passed in a blink of an eye. Before he finished publishing his great speech, the door of the special elevator had already opened. The first thing we saw was: the two guards turned their heads and took a look at the elevator. They acted very naturally at that time, and after looking at them, there was nothing unusual about their expressions. The angle of the closed-circuit television installation, you can see half of the situation in the elevator with the door opened on the screen, but you can't see the whole thing. Of course we were waiting for the three important officials and staff members of the Dow Group to come out—it didn’t take long, only two or three seconds, and no one came out of the elevator. All of us, involuntarily, let out a little surprise Come on. problem occurs!Something must have happened. I looked at everyone, everyone's complexion was extremely pale, and everyone is not someone who has seen the world, but at that moment, they all froze and didn't know what to do. Only Cheng Jinrun, he was frozen for the shortest time, his hands were still trembling, so he instinctively pressed many buttons, and at the same time, stared at the screen displaying the data, with a strange and inexplicable expression. Although I am not a layman on computers, each computer stores different data. It is impossible to understand the content of the data displayed on the screen before an unfamiliar computer, just as it is impossible for anyone to understand a computer. The inner world of a stranger passing by on the road. However, I can know that Cheng Jinrun must have noticed something, because his expression is strange, mixed with fear and doubt.Moreover, as soon as he noticed that I was paying attention to him, he stopped immediately and tried to look as if nothing had happened. This made me more sure that something happened, but he didn't want to tell others. Originally, I could have exposed him immediately, but once I found that three people who had entered the elevator disappeared, the confusion caused can be imagined.Huang Tang shouted loudly: "The bottom of the elevator shaft, they hid at the bottom of the elevator shaft again." Huang Tang's cry was not very scary, but the fact that he called out inevitably made people feel cold all over. There are still some staff members in the management room, and some of them are like us. They witnessed three important people get off the helicopter and entered the elevator with the staff, but at this moment, they saw someone coming out of the elevator. They don't know what to do. Liangchen Meijing first flickered and left the management room, followed by others. Once outside the special elevator in the lobby, everyone saw the situation inside the elevator. Everyone agreed to look at the small door on the top of the elevator. The door, with obvious signs of being pushed open. Like the director of the management room, these four people climbed out of the elevator through the small door on the top of the elevator. The difference is that when the director climbed out, someone saw it through the closed-circuit television.When the four climbed out, no one saw them.So, they should be at the bottom of the elevator trough too? After some commotion, the four people were indeed found at the bottom of this dedicated elevator. They were the same as the missing person 1, 2 and the director of the management room. They were all like wooden figures, except for intermittent blinking. It's just four living bodies, which is a very terrifying situation.Before the four people were found out, the possible situation was expected to be extremely shocking, so the police sealed off a corner of the lobby to prevent people from approaching, and at the same time, surrounded the sail tent.So, when the four people were taken away by the medical staff, only the relevant personnel were present. This is all after a period of time. At that time, due to the chaos and some other unexpected things happened, it is impossible to narrate them in order, so I have to tell what happened later, and then turn around. , Said the accident that happened at that time.Anyway, the elevator did not "swallow" people down, but only made people lose their minds, bend over, and hide at the bottom of the elevator trough──Of course, if they are not found for a long time, they will definitely starve to death. There are two dedicated elevators. When we found that there was no one in the elevator and we were shocked, the two guards were still baffled. They didn't know why we were facing an elevator with no one, as if we were seeing ghosts. At this moment, another dedicated elevator, just next to it, also lit up, indicating that the elevator had reached the lobby. As soon as the door opened, three people stepped out together. The appearance of these three people is very surprising, because everyone knows that the special elevator is dedicated to the Chen brothers, and no one can enter it without permission. Therefore, when they saw that the elevator was used by someone, the two of them naturally fell in love with each other. The reaction was that his face darkened. However, at this moment, the person who stepped out of the elevator took the lead, his face became even more gloomy, and after seeing who that person was, the expressions of the Chen brothers became extremely surprised. That person is none other than Tao Qiquan, a wealthy man. Huang Tang once received a report that Tao Qiquan wanted to come here to find me, but he and his entourage would come in two helicopters. The first helicopter brought his three important assistants. A helicopter came. The first helicopter arrived first, and the three important officials, accompanied by the staff, took the No. 1 special elevator down, but disappeared. Tao Qiquan arrived later and took the No. 2 special elevator down. Judging from the way he stepped out of the elevator alive and well, he obviously didn't encounter any accidents. The status of the Chen brothers in the shopping malls is not low (they own two 60-story buildings), but compared with Tao Qiquan, they are still nothing. The group challenged each other, but in face-to-face situations, they could not help but feel a little discouraged. (This is a very strange kind of human behavior - people who are in a weak position, even if they know that the strong party has nothing to do with them, they never need to ask for anything from the strong party. The status should be equal, but once they meet, the weak The other side, naturally, will feel discouraged and unable to get equal status psychologically.) The surprise on the faces of the Chen brothers was still there, and they were ready to meet them, but Tao Qiquan didn't pay attention to them at all, and he didn't even want to stay on them for half a second, but just gave them a cold look, He looked at me immediately. Tao Qiquan's arrogant demeanor made the Chen brothers freeze there, not knowing what to do. Tao Qiquan pointed at me and shouted: "Wesley, you are too deceitful." I couldn't help but smile wryly, obviously he was the one who deceived others too much, yet he assigned this crime to me.I didn't argue with him, I just said: "There are too many things happening here, and I need to deal with them." Tao Qiquan said loudly: "Something happened to six of my important subordinates, I want you to help me deal with it." I looked at him and said word by word: "Nine, not six. The three who just arrived, I saw them enter the elevator, but the elevator reached the lobby, but it was empty." As I said that, I pointed to the No. 1 special elevator behind him. Tao Qiquan immediately turned his head to look. At this moment, the Chen brothers regained their composure and wanted to get close to Tao Qiquan, but suddenly, a tall and enlightened man stood between them and Tao Qiquan. That man was a real giant, definitely more than two meters tall, his body was as solid as a stone sculpture, his hands were clenched into fists, the diameter of his fists was close to twenty centimeters.This giant is Tao Qiquan's personal bodyguard, and he is an extremely strange person—there are many strange stories about this strange person, but they have nothing to do with this story, so just introduce his appearance. Three people came out of the elevator, and the other was a staff member of the Twin Towers, who was talking with the Chen Brothers at this time, looking very panicked. Tao Qiquan looked at me and wanted to speak, but he opened his mouth wide, but no sound came out. I took a breath. "Hopefully I can find them at the bottom of the elevator shaft, but they might as well..."
