Genius club

National Security Agency, classified conference room.

Director Liu An looked grim, as if facing a formidable enemy.

He sat on the side of the long oval conference table, tapping his index finger on the table, and sweat was forming on his forehead.

Looked up.

Opposite the long conference table, sat his former teacher and old leader, Dean Gao Yan; and at this moment, sitting next to Dean Gao Yan, he was chatting and laughing with the old leader... He had just handed a bunch of information to him, and he had handed it over to him. To the young people in the information security department——

Lin Xian.

yesterday afternoon.

Teacher Gao Yan called him and said that he would introduce a young man to him. He said that he had discovered many loopholes in the Longguo Internet Security Great Wall and wanted to submit them to him.

He didn't care at first.

Just tell the teacher and ask the young man to send it directly to the mailbox, and there will be specialized personnel to check and handle it.

during this time.

Ever since that genius hacker boy from the United States threatened to break into the Dragon Kingdom Skynet system at the "2023 World Hacker Competition"...

Netizens across the country are paying close attention to this matter and are extremely patriotic.

In the external mailbox of the National Security Agency, a large number of emails requesting war are received every day——

"The ace technician of Huaibin Dragon City Internet Cafe, please fight to protect the country!"

"Discussing how to prevent network hacker attacks through physical means such as unplugging network cables, cutting off power, and short-circuiting the computer room.

"Who said there are no young people in the Dragon Kingdom?" Wang Yiming, the first prize winner of the Licheng Youth Computer Newspaper and a genius computer hacker, is willing to fight for the country!

"In my opinion, the entire country will be cut off from internet and power supply, without giving American hackers a chance!"

"Bold and Bold!" I discovered a fatal flaw in the Great Internet Security Wall of Longguo! I scanned a total of 127 fatal vulnerabilities and recommended using 2345 Security Manager to fix them.

…

Director Liu An was naturally very happy and relieved to see such high patriotic sentiment among netizens.

but.

Every other line is like a mountain.

Most people’s understanding of hacker attacks is stuck in movie scenes. A hacker wearing a hood is crackling on the keyboard, and then the screen keeps scrolling with 010101010101 that is invisible to the naked eye...

Although some constructive suggestions can be received in the mailbox, and occasionally private experts actually find one or two loopholes.

But compared to the large amount of "spam", it can only be regarded as a drop in the ocean.

However, Director Liu An also deeply understood that in the field of computers, there has always been a tradition of hidden experts in the city and experts among the people, so he arranged for specialized personnel to check the information in the mailbox one by one, and not a single email was missed.

therefore.

He told Teacher Gao Yan to ask the young man to send the discovered vulnerability information to the mailbox. Someone will check it and it will not be missed.

However……

It was beyond his expectation.

Teacher Gao Yan, who was in a high position, told him sincerely:

"Xiao Liu, you should make some time to meet this young man. Then I will take him to find you."

These words shocked Liu An.

What kind of young man is this, with such a big reputation? Can Dean Gao Yan, who is the dean of the Academy of Dragon Science, a leading figure in the scientific research community, and a living fossil of the scientific history of the Dragon Kingdom, accompany him personally?

It's so magical!

But the teacher had said this, and he must take it seriously, so he quickly arranged this meeting.

At the beginning, in addition to him, there were two comrades from the security technology department in this conference room. Their level was also top-notch in the country. One of them was a core member of the Longguo Network Security Great Wall Project.

After the two of them received the pile of information handed over by Lin Xian, they were both shocked.

Looking at each other...

Go ahead, it’s so thick!

How many vulnerabilities are recorded here?

If all this is true, wouldn’t it mean that the Great Wall is riddled with holes, like a sieve?

"This is impossible."

One of the comrades from the technical department read the first two pages and pushed up his glasses:

"There must be no problem with our network defense system. Is this attack method really feasible?"

Another comrade also frowned:

"This... this is a method I have never thought of, it is incredible. I am not sure, can this really be successful? How on earth was this kind of vulnerability discovered?"

When Director Liu An saw what the two people said, he instantly became nervous and realized that today's visitor was really unusual:

"Go and verify it quickly, we'll wait here."

Subsequently.

The two of them left.

Twenty minutes later, the door to the conference room was pushed open again, and four or five people came in with solemn expressions:

"Director Liu, we have verified that these loopholes are all real! Some even seem to have been ambushed by the enemy and may explode at any time."

"This is really unbelievable. This kind of intrusion is beyond our understanding! If all this was really done by Kevin Walker, then it would be impossible for us to prevent it on September 17th!"

"It's so scary. What kind of genius is this? How did he do it? To be honest, personally, I have always been a technical fan of Kevin Walker. Although he is in reality He has never appeared, but he is still very active on the Internet, and often gives pointers to questioners--\u003e\u003e

Jin, his ideas are indeed unique. But...these invasion methods now can no longer be described as unique, they can only be described as fantasy! "

"Fortunately, the masters are still among the people! The field of hacking is different from other fields. Hackers with academic background are not as good as those self-taught geniuses who are hiding in the market! We need to fix these loopholes as soon as possible!"

"But... what should we do on September 17th? If this enthusiastic person hadn't provided us with vulnerability information today, we wouldn't even be able to find traces of Kevin Walker. For such a talented young man, he must still be there Does he have a more powerful trump card? He has now invaded the security and defense systems of many countries, including the Pentagon of the United States, without any success. I am really worried..."

…

Director Liu An waved his hand and asked these technicians to leave, and told them to repair the loopholes quickly, draw inferences from one example, learn Kevin Walker's new ideas and attack habits, and learn more about the enemy.

boom.

The soundproof door of the confidential conference room is closed.

Director Liu An stood up solemnly, walked to the opposite side of the conference table, and held Lin Xian's hand tightly:

"Mr. Lin, thank you very much for providing us with the vulnerability information. Without your timely rescue... it is hard to imagine how miserable and embarrassing we would have been on September 17th."

He turned to look at Teacher Gao Yan. After the two looked at each other and nodded, Liu An faced Lin Xian again and said:

"Mr. Lin, you will not be rewarded for your merits. We are wise people and do not speak secretly. I also know that your purpose of coming here is definitely not just to send you vulnerability information. You must have other things."

"You have helped us and the country so much. If you have any requests, feel free to ask. As long as it does not violate the principles and regulations, I will definitely agree to it!"

Lin Xian nodded and smiled.

On the way here, Dean Gao Yan chatted with Lin Xian about Liu An and said that Liu An was a very straight-tempered person. Although his temper was a bit irritable at times and lacked some stability and calmness when necessary, he had a very good character and heart. Not bad.

Liu An is devoted to the country and has made outstanding contributions in the field of national security. He is also a very straightforward person. He does not beat around the bush or beat around the bush. If you have any demands, just talk to him directly.

If it works, it works. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Liu An will not be careless or vague.

"Director Liu, let me be frank. In fact, I came here today with two requests."

Lin Xian said truthfully:

"The first request, which may be a bit difficult to handle... is that I want to join our national team participating in the World Hacking Competition this time."

, I don’t want to be a regular player, I can be a substitute or a staff member at the water dispenser. I just want to see and experience the game at the game. "

"Of course it's no problem, it's not difficult at all."

Director Liu An smiled heartily:

"Our participating team this time is led by the National Security Agency and is escorted and protected by specialized troops. There are many accompanying people. You are not missing. This is not a difficult task."

"And... on the contrary, I am actually more curious than the substitutes. Mr. Lin, the fact that you can help us find so many security holes in the Great Wall of the Internet shows that your level is far above that of our technical staff."

"Of course, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to get to the bottom of it. I have come into contact with all kinds of hackers in the country. Everyone has different purposes, different identities, and their own way of survival, so I don't I'll ask you any detailed questions. But then again..."

"I still can't help but look forward to you, so can you tell me, if you can participate in the hacker competition as an official team member, what hacker program will you prepare? What is it for cracking?"

"My level is actually average..."

Lin Xian smiled and said:

"The vulnerability thing is not my own effort. As you said, the masters are among the people, so we won't go into details. If I were really allowed to participate in the hacker competition as a formal team member, the vulnerability I prepared would be about cracking Tesla Pulling a car."

"I performed a TOCTOU attack on Tesla Gateay, and used heap overflow and OOB writing to hack into the Tesla vehicle system and obtain all Tesla's driving and security permissions."

Director Liu An suddenly realized:

"Then... this is a complete hack of Tesla. It's still very powerful! As far as I know, the current hacking team in the world against Tesla can only hack into the infotainment system and gain control of the vehicle. Damn...you are still the first one I know."

He nodded thoughtfully:

"To tell you the truth, the loopholes prepared by our five contestants are actually not much better than you in terms of difficulty, and are even a little weaker."

"And a colleague from our information security department is actually unwilling to participate in this world hacker competition. He said that participating in this kind of competition has no meaning at all. It is equivalent to providing vulnerabilities to those Internet companies in vain. He feels that the top priority is to Just protect the Skynet system."

"So, he repeatedly applied to me, asking for someone to replace him in the hacker competition, while he stayed to protect the Skynet system. I can understand this because he is one of the founding builders of the Skynet system. One, he has great affection for Skynet, just like a child."

"However, the country's considerations are multi-faceted. The idea must be to protect the Skynet system and win the world hacker competition. It cannot be said that it is to enhance our country's prestige. At least it must let those who are arrogant and look down on Long People with Chinese network technology have learned a lot, so after a comprehensive consideration, we decided to let this very skilled colleague participate in the World Hacking Competition.”

"Looking at it now...if you are really ready to completely hack a Tesla car, you can completely replace him to participate in the World Hacking Competition and let him stay to protect the Skynet system as he wishes. It can be regarded as the best of both worlds. Errand. I don’t know Lin--\u003e\u003e

Sir, what do you think of this plan? "

Lin Xian nodded:

"It's okay for me personally. I just follow the state's arrangements."

For Lin Xian, as long as he can go to the United States under the protection of elite troops, there is no difference between being a substitute or a regular player.

Let him be a substitute, and he would guard the water dispenser and serve tea and water.

Let him play, and he will double-click to start the program written by VV to show off his skills.

It doesn't matter.

"Okay, let's just say this."

Director Liu An chuckled and patted Lin Xian on the shoulder.

It can be seen that he is very happy that he has solved a difficult problem on his mind.

Presumably, the comrade who swore to live and die with Skynet has been...

It certainly put a lot of pressure on Director Liu An, and it was very difficult for him to handle it.

"Then Lin Xian, you will take over that comrade's position and be ranked in the final free demonstration session to face that talented hacker boy Kevin Walker. Don't pay too much attention to this order. The final victory or defeat will be based on the total number of people. It's based on points, so don't feel any pressure. Besides... Kevin Walker is recognized as the world's most talented hacker. Anyone who faces him will basically lose, and no one will blame you."

"So... you just said you have two requests. Now that the first request has been resolved, what is your second request, Lin Xian?"

Lin Xian looked at Director Liu An:

"My second request is that after the World Hacking Competition, I hope that the elite troops can continue to protect my personal safety and go to the vicinity of Princeton University without wasting too much time. I have a personal matter that I want to deal with there. "

"Well, that's no problem."

Director Liu An responded readily:

"Princeton is not far from New York. Before you return home, our elite troops will definitely protect you safely. I also promise you this. You can go back the same day and don't delay your return plan."

So far.

Things went well.

Director Liu An was very happy that Lin Xian not only provided him with a large number of security loopholes, but also gave him an urgent need to resolve disputes among the contestants.

Lin Xian was also very happy, and all his requests were readily agreed to. As long as he arrives in the United States...his plan to achieve three birds with one stone can be carried out step by step.

"Happy cooperation." "May we both win!"

Lin Xian and Director Liu An smiled and shook hands, and temporarily left the National Security Agency.

Liu An told Lin Xian.

There was not much time left before the competition. After asking Lin Xian to arrange domestic matters, he rushed back to the imperial capital as soon as possible, reported to the National Security Agency, and started collective action.

…

The next day, return to the East China Sea.

Lin Xian got into his Alpha car and headed to the Rheinland Joint Laboratory at Tunghai University, preparing to report the current situation to Liu Feng.

"I've already taken care of the Guizhou Tianyan matter for you."

Lin Xian sat at the experimental table, looking at the time and space clock that still showed 0.0000000, spinning his pen, and continued:

"The project at the Institute of Astronomy of the Dragon Academy of Sciences has been completed ahead of schedule and is now in the final stage. After they pack up and leave, our laboratory can officially move in... Although it is a laboratory, you are actually the only one , but there are still many graduate and doctoral assistants there that you can use.”

"After September 17th, Dean Gao Yan will give me news. At that time, I will take you to the imperial capital and go through the formal procedures before you can officially use the Guizhou Sky Eye. So during this period, you should continue your research here, and wait until I come back from participating in the "World Hacking Competition" in the United States. "

Boom.

The instrument in Liu Feng's hand fell on the table.

He turned his head with a suspicious look on his face:

"Are you going to the United States?"

"Yeah." Lin Xian nodded.

"Going to participate in the World Hacking Competition?"

"Yeah." Lin Xian nodded.

"Aren't you kidding me?" Liu Feng was immediately amused. He picked up the instrument and shook his head:

"What are you going to do? Have you studied computer technology?"

"I have learned programming for two or three months." Lin Xian answered truthfully.

"What can you learn in two or three months..." Liu Feng was also speechless.

"You can't say that."

Lin Xian smiled meaningfully:

"Everyone's body is different."

"..."

Liu Feng was speechless.

Stretching his head, he looked towards the corridor outside the laboratory door, then retracted.

Lin Xian blinked curiously:

"What are you looking at?"

"Let me see if any women are here today." Liu Feng continued to tinker with the instruments on his drum:

"It seems not."

"..."

Lin Xian suddenly felt that there were really many drama stars around him.

"Bye, I'm leaving. I'll find you when I return home."

After saying that, Lin Xian got up, went downstairs, got on the Alpha car and left.

20 minutes later——

Teng Teng Teng!

There was a rush of footsteps, and a fluffy dark brown high ponytail bounced in from the door. Chu Anqing looked left and right in the laboratory, and then looked at Liu Feng:

"Teacher Liu Feng, isn't Senior Lin Xian here? When I was in class just now, I saw his car parked outside, and then he came over after class."

"Ah, you're late."

Liu Feng turned to look at the door:

"He's here today--\u003e\u003e

He just said a few words and then left. It took a long time. He was in a hurry to catch a plane and go to the United States to participate in the "World Hacking Competition." "

"ha?"

Chu Anqing blinked her big eyes in disbelief and tilted her head to look at Liu Feng:

"He's going to the United States?"

"Yeah." Liu Feng nodded.

"Going to participate in the World Hacking Competition?"

"Yeah." Liu Feng nodded.

"Aren't you kidding me?" Chu Anqing couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"He's not a hacker! Why are you joining in this mess?"

"Everyone's physique is different." Liu Feng repeated Lin Xian's words and looked at Chu Anqing in confusion:

"That's what he said."

Da da da.

Outside the door, there was another sound of footsteps. A tall and cool woman with a short skirt and suspenders exposing her navel held the door frame and rubbed Chu Anqing's head:

"You ran so fast! You couldn't hear me when I shouted from behind! I didn't even answer my cell phone calls!"

"Auntie!" Chu Anqing smiled and raised her head, looking at Su Su:

"You have to mute your cell phone during class. I forgot to turn it back after class."

"You can't run that fast!"

Su Su chuckled:

"You run like a rabbit, as if there's a big bad wolf chasing you."

Liu Feng held the instrument in his hand.

Looking at this young beauty in front of me, although the makeup is a bit heavy and the clothes are a bit too summery, her beautiful face and sexy figure are no less than those of the beauties endorsed on billboards.

More importantly……

This beauty looks to be about the same age as Lin Xian, in her twenties or thirties.

"Um……"

He nodded with satisfaction.

This is right.

This is in line with mathematical logic, and the arithmetic sequence is complete, filling in the middle link.

"You're late too." Liu Feng looked at Su Su and said seriously:

"You should have come 20 minutes earlier."

"Huh?" Su Su looked at the man who looked like a teacher and researcher in front of her in confusion:

"Why don't you come 20 minutes earlier?"

"Lin Xian was still here 20 minutes earlier." Liu Feng replied.

"Damn it! You must be sick!"

Su Su shouted:

"What does it have to do with him here!"

She lowered her head and looked at Chu Anqing:

"An Qing, who is this?"

"This is senior Lin Xian's friend, Liu——"

"Hey! Birds of a feather do flock together!" She interrupted Chu Anqing with a look of disgust and pulled her out:

"Come on, let's go eat. Bad thinking is contagious."

…

Today is Friday.

Su Su happened to be near the university town, so she volunteered to take Chu Anqing home and drove the McLaren directly into the school.

However, Chu Anqing's cell phone was muted during class, so she couldn't contact her, so she waited outside the classroom building where Chu Anqing was attending class.

result.

As soon as the bell rang, this little girl ran like a rabbit. She couldn't stop shouting and ran straight to the deserted experimental building next to her. She had no choice but to follow.

"Don't go to your house to eat. Let's eat something outside."

Su Su turned on the turn signal, turned the McLaren steering wheel, and looked sideways at Chu Anqing:

"Your parents are too nagging. If I go to your house for dinner, they will beep me and ask me to go on a blind date and get married."

Subsequently.

Su Su drove into a restaurant with simple decoration, ordered a few signature dishes, and chatted with Chu Anqing while eating.

"What?"

Su Su's chopsticks stopped in mid-air and she looked at Chu Anqing with a painful expression:

"You said Lin Xian is going to the United States to participate in the World Hacking Competition? Isn't this just to embarrass someone?"

She snorted, as if she was very proud:

"He is a bit good at driving, I admit that. But things like hacking require hard skills. Lin Xian is neither a computer major nor engaged in this field, yet he dares to represent the country in " World Hacking Competition...the world is really getting crazy."

"And he is the fifth one to appear." Chu Anqing added:

"We need to directly confront that, the genius hacker boy from the United States, Walker, etc... This has been discussed on the Internet for a while, and I often see it when I play Douyin."

"That's even worse"

Su Su spread her hands and said with a smile:

"Kevin Walker is recognized around the world as the strongest hacker on the planet. Despite his young age...ah, who knows whether his name and age are true or false. Anyway, this genius hacker is indeed ahead of his time. There are too many, the kind of unreasonable strength that should not appear in this era."

"There are many geniuses who were ahead of their time in history. Geniuses of the same period were really miserable when they encountered this kind of real genius. Their light was completely obscured by him and they lived in his shadow."

"In the fields of racing, science, and sports... from time to time, strong and unreasonable geniuses like this appear. Once they are suppressed, they suppress an era. Only after he dies can other colleagues breathe a sigh of relief."

Su Su took a sip of the drink and smacked her lips:

"So, Lin Xian is definitely out of luck. I really don't know why the country sent him to compete."

Chu Anqing put down her chopsticks and bit her lip:

"If Senior Lin Xian traveled all the way to Mi--\u003e\u003e

Country, just to lose a game, then what is the point of going? "

"I think Senior Lin Xian will definitely not lose! At least...if he knew he would lose, he wouldn't go. He's not the kind of person who insists on going in if he's not sure."

"Yo ho?"

Su Surao looked at Chu Anqing and smiled slightly:

"Are you so confident?"

"Of course! Senior Lin Xian is really powerful and smart."

"Haha, since you have so much confidence in him."

Su Su turned the chopsticks in her hand, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Chu Anqing with interest:

"Would you like...to bet on something?"
