Cyber Heroes

Project Rama is a special project. This may be the second time that "all major powers have a tacit understanding to cover up a secret" - the first time was "technical details related to nuclear weapons."

Except for the scholars who enjoy the pure joy of "discovering the unknown", everyone here is cautious. Every move they make may have an impact on the fragile international situation.

Not to mention the "leak" incident.

The fact that "aliens really exist" will have a huge impact on the public's psychology. And this impact may turn into "panic" and "turmoil."

Although some knowledgeable scholars have made contrary speculations. It is said that there is a report on the internal reference of the Republic. This report keenly pointed out that human beings can strengthen the concept of "human community" by shaping the image of "extraterrestrial life", a group that is different from "us", and generously suggested that we should seize development opportunities in the future.

But those in power dare not gamble. They cannot bet on what kind of turmoil will break out when "the public learns about aliens without being prepared."

It can even be said that from the moment he released "Sita", this guy "Zhurong" was no longer a mere "cyber guerrilla". He may be the most terrifying terrorist of the 21st century.

"It's probably understandable..." Xiang Shan nodded, and then turned his gaze to his tablet: "It's just...a little pity. I think so far, his influence has been quite positive."

"Hey..." Director Hu shook his head: "Director Xiang, you still need to pay more attention. From your standpoint, it is a bit inappropriate to say this."

Xiang Shan nodded slightly. In fact, Jing Hongtu also said similar words to him, but the direction he pointed was completely opposite.

——In the Republic, scientists are a group that receives special treatment. Why? Because "science and technology are the primary productive forces". Do you think there aren’t that many people who believe in rationalism? That’s right. In this context, "science and technology" can be equated to "divine power", and you are the "wizard who communicates with divine power", Xiao Xiang. You are even the most powerful "engineer" among "modern wizards".

——Because you are a "wizard", it is normal for you to say some weird things. Also because you are a "wizard", you will be easily forgiven if you verbally conflict with "princes and nobles". Even such inappropriate words and deeds will strengthen the impression of those noble people on you. The more flustered you are, the more skilled they will think you are.

——There is no necessary connection between whether the technology is strong or not and the temperament is ruthless? Ha ha. of course not. But the stereotypes in our country from top to bottom are like this. The more you behave like this, the more technically reliable you will be and the less threatening you will be. Even if you make remarks that are completely contrary to your core values, as long as there is no actual act of treason, the most they can do is shut you up and disappear from the public eye.

——Yes, "breaking this stereotype" and "disenchanting science itself" are very meaningful. But at this stage, it is also okay to "exploit this stereotype". You don’t have to worry about not doing well after taking office, and you don’t have to feel pressured.

Xiangshan is just "playing his true self" as a fool.

He looked at his tablet and said: "I think the discussion of these hackers is still very valuable. Although they do not receive formal systematic training like me, they have developed skills through fighting with swords and guns. They have developed a very vital thinking. Their discussions can still give me some inspiration. Normally, these guys can't enter this park."

Colonel Lei nodded and said: "Director Xiang is indeed a scientist and has the spirit to devote himself wholeheartedly to his career. But we really can't joke about 'social stability'. Not to mention these hackers, not even those guys who come ashore to clear their name."

Many network security personnel of large companies are the result of well-known hackers being whitewashed and recruited. But the old guys who have washed their hands of themselves are not trusted either. Who can guarantee that these former "cyber guerrillas" will not get crazy and come up with outrageous ideas such as "Everyone has the right to know this information" and "Big countries have no right to monopolize alien intelligence, this is hegemonism". And then expose the matter?

After all, this is their youth.

Director Hu said: "But the review will gradually be relaxed in the future. If Director Xiang really wants to recruit some hackers to help with research, it will be possible by then."

Xiang Shan nodded: "I really hope that day comes soon."

"However, the matter of 'communication with hackers' is not without clues." Lei Chaoyang raised his eyebrows and said: "This time I am in contact with you, I am here to inform you of news. The United States cannot sit still this time. . They plan to send their top hackers here. You can try to communicate with him, but be careful."

Xiang Shan was a little surprised: "Isn't it true that he can't pass the trial?"

After all, hackers are either bohemian idealists who love freedom, or they are restless elements who are naturally rebellious and want to challenge the rules. The former is pure and the latter is chaotic, both are difficult to change.

Colonel Lei took out a stack of information from his briefcase. It included a photo and several documents.

"This is the hacker's information. You must pay attention to this person, and please do not let your electronic products come into contact with him." Colonel Lei said.

The photo showed a young man about the same age as Xiangshan, maybe a year or two younger. He was thin, with slumped shoulders and a long neck. Above the towering cheekbones and sharp nose bridge are a pair of gloomy and arrogant eyes.

This young man with blond hair and blue eyes gave people a vague feeling of discomfort.

He really looks like the stereotypical technical nerd boy in the United States TV series.

"Is this guy the big hacker?" Xiang Shan muttered, "I can't tell..."

"Jacob Hartmann, a German-American, was born in Pennsylvania. His parents are evangelicals. He grew up in a conservative family, and his favorite works are "Ghost Recon" and "Splinter Cell" And Rainbow Six…”

"Wow." Xiang Shan nodded: "You mean, he is the kind of person who has a Cold War mentality?"

Lei Chaoyang nodded: "Jakub Hartman is a guy with great patriotic enthusiasm."

"It seems different from mainstream hackers?"

"But because of this, he was underestimated. He is the strongest hacker." Lei Chaoyang said: "This guy relied on self-study when he was in high school and mastered various hacking techniques. In the hacker circle, he broke into He even got the ID of 'Agni'. After confirming that he could learn nothing more from the hacker circle, he hacked into the CIA's system and almost peeked into the CIA's confidential documents."

"If he hadn't left a cover letter himself, I'm afraid the CIA wouldn't have been able to find him."

Xiang Shan nodded: "That's really..."

"The same cover letter showed up in the Pentagon's systems. This guy was as unpredictable as a ghost."

Xiang Shan wiped his face: "This guy started such a big fight just to... find a job?"

"His dream is to become a warrior who defends the country." Lei Chaoyang said: "Part of the above information was announced by the United States itself, and part of it is confidential. Director Xiang, please don't tell anyone else after you know it."

Xiang Shan was a little confused: "I think this matter should be difficult to know..."

Lei Chaoyang hesitated for a moment: "The main reason is that he left cover letters for both the military and the CIA. Neither side knew that the other knew about it. Both sides wanted to solve it independently, so there was some trouble a few years ago and it was leaked. The news was known to other countries.”

Xiang Shan clicked his tongue: "This is shocking enough."

"So the first reward he got was actually not his dream job, but jail time. But later on, for some unknown reason, this guy joined the FBI and played a big role in the FBI, destroying many U.S. states. Domestic cybercriminal groups.”

"In the hacker circle of the United States, the ID 'Agni' is already notorious. Many hackers have threatened to rub this traitor's spirit away. But so far, he is still the strongest 'Agni' .”

Xiang Shan smiled: "But to be honest, hackers can't dampen his spirit, right? For hackers, the most important thing is your real name. Because once your real name is known to others, that person can always change it to You are sent to jail. But this Agni is already a public official, the kind who is responsible for dealing with hackers."

He did remember this weird thing. Due to professional relationships, Xiangshan occasionally communicates with colleagues abroad. He was indeed not familiar with "Zhurong", which specialized in technology companies, but he had heard of "Agni" for the time being. It's just that his professional field is far away from network security, so he doesn't have a deep understanding of it.

"Hackers also have hacker rules. I don't know the details very well. Probably destroying his information or something?" Lei Chaoyang shook his head.

"Speaking of which, first it was 'Zhurong', and then 'Agni'..." Xiang Shan thought about it: "Do these hackers like to take the name of the God of Fire?"

"Oh, this." Lei Chaoyang said with a smile: "Is this a trend in recent years? Academics like you may not know it yet. In the past few years, this kind of 'Vulcan' ID has been very popular among hackers. It caused an unusually bloody storm. Everyone wanted to grab an ID about the 'Vulcan'."

"I won't mention 'Zhurong' and 'Agni'. In addition, there are also 'Loki', 'Vulcan', 'Hephaestus', 'Huode Xingjun', and 'Jiagu' Earth fate'..."

"There is a saying among hackers. Hackers with the name of 'Vulcan' are the strongest."
