Middle-aged Love Patch

A few months ago, Xu Youyuan was also the producer of "Reshaping the Universe", an industry leader who has attracted much attention in every move. On the special day when "Reshaping the Universe" is about to usher in its fifth anniversary, all her energy is devoted to the anniversary version.

Everything went smoothly. At the critical stage of the test, Xu Youyuan received a call from her dad.

Two years ago, her mother was diagnosed with cancer. Xu Youyuan was the first to know about this, and she has been actively treating. How much money Xu Youyuan never blinked, only hoping to cure her disease. Even if she couldn't really save her in the end, Xu Youyuan wanted to reduce her pain as much as possible.

In the previous era, ordinary people had terminal illnesses, and most of them had no possibility of cure, or the cost of treatment was astronomical. It is possible to die more simply, without suffering too much, and the burden on the family is not so heavy. Some died dragged down, uncomfortable for themselves, and their family members had to pay for their life savings.

Now that medical care is more developed, it should be a good thing. Many diseases were terminally ill in the past, but there is hope in the present. As long as you pay enough money, there is a possibility of cure. Even if there is really no hope in the end, advanced technology can be used to minimize the suffering of patients.

People are mortal, the key depends on how they die. Whether you came to this world crying and leaving with a smile, or crying and walking away, it depends on whether you have enough money.

With such a big temptation before your eyes, will you give me money?

Xu Youyuan has only to give money obediently.

The daily cost of 200,000 ordinary medicines does not include special medicines and photochemical treatments. Some improvement after each treatment, the cancer cells are temporarily blocked, but there is no guarantee how long it will last.

Day after day, it was consumed like this, even an elite rich man like Xu Youyuan was about to be unable to sustain it.

After selling two houses, the savings were also consumed rapidly. Fortunately, the success of these years allowed her to accumulate enough, and finally saw a slight turn for the better.

The last operation was very successful. The family knew that my daughter was busy at work, and sometimes she didn't have time to go home during the holidays. I wanted to let her go back to work if she was okay. I didn't expect Xu Youyuan to leave soon and her mother's condition deteriorated rapidly.

The critical illness notice was still issued this time, and the situation was more serious than any other time, and she understood it without her father saying more.

Xu Youyuan was obviously tired when she came out of the vacuum train station.

It was the time when the anniversary version was going online, but her mother was critically ill, and she couldn't help but come back. After receiving her dad's call, she bought a ticket for the most recent bus, the first bus at 6 o'clock the next morning. All the important things were explained overnight, and then he hurried to the station.

With a hunch, this homecoming will be the last time she and her mother will meet, and I don't know how long it will take.

After staying at home for five days, colleagues in the project team would call every day, and she explained them all in detail and kept records.

There seemed to be some problems, the subordinates were hesitant to talk, and the video conference was always interrupted.

baffling.

It's not that Xu Youyuan didn't keep his eyes on her mind.

By the sixth day, my mother's mental state had improved, and she could even eat some porridge, and she had to take off the oxygen mask and talk to her family.

Intermittently speaking until midnight, Xu Youyuan and her father dared not sleep, and kept holding on. When dawn was approaching, her mother said she wanted to eat the pot at the door of her house. That was Xu Youyi's favorite breakfast for her family when she was young.

Xu Youyuan placed a takeaway order, and the pot was delivered quickly.

The hospital has regulations that the food delivery person can only wait outside, and Xu Youyuan asks her father to stay in the ward and pick up the food by herself.

Every second counts. She is afraid that she won't be able to fulfill her mother's last wish, and she is even more afraid of not seeing her last.

When she returned to the ward with the steaming pot in the thermos, her mother still opened her eyes weakly. This thin old lady with only a layer of skin was very stubborn to support her life and did not want to leave any regrets to her family. .

As Xu Youyuan thought, her mother only took a bite of the pot and passed away after eating.

Dad has been in a coma for a long time in grief, and relatives in the family have all come to help, but the more they help.

Xu Youyuan was in charge of the whole process by herself. She was very calm, because there was no time to grieve, there was a clear and cruel voice in her mind telling her that there was nothing left when people died, and no amount of grief would help. Fortunately, she gave the best she could give while her mother was alive, with a clear conscience.

The day my mother passed away was the fifth anniversary of "Reshaping the Universe". When the anniversary version was launched, she was contacting the funeral train. She never received countless video calls on the computer, and the communication records were even erased afterwards. , This weird thing was only discovered by her a long time later.

Then, that terrible disaster struck.

Just as she was so busy for her mother's funeral, the fifth anniversary version of "Reshaping the Universe" had an unprecedented major loophole, and everything happened so fast that it was unexpected.

After the new version was updated, the vulnerability appeared.

Tens of thousands of players frantically spawned epic-level vehicles, and the huge group of players "reshaping the universe" made the situation develop into an uncontrollable state in a very short period of time, and the game balance was completely destroyed.

As the leader of the game industry, SQUALL cannot be without precautions. The easiest way is to cut off the entrance, let all players disconnect, and then slowly repair it.

There will be compensation, and players who take advantage of the loopholes and violate the rules will also be punished. Over the past five years, "Reshaping the Universe" has experienced countless trials and challenges. Although this outbreak has been very sudden and rapid, they are still very confident that they can quickly settle it. At most, the online forum will be lively for a while. When the compensation is issued, the incident It will subside in a short time.

This is the experience of everyone.

However, the following developments shocked these self-proclaimed experienced industry insiders.

Everything that happened below is unknown to outsiders, and only internal seniors have heard of it.

Someone used the loopholes to hack into the game server, cracked the encryption program in a very short time, and stole the account information of tens of thousands of players. Player accounts were linked to bank cards or payment software, and their money was quickly stolen.

Five hundred, one thousand...ten thousand, fifty thousand...

In an instant when everyone was unable to respond in time, hundreds of millions of yuan were swept away, and this number is still growing at a rapid rate of one hundred thousand per second.

The strange thing is that large-scale abnormal transfers in the past will be monitored by the government, thereby freezing the transfer account and path. But this time, the hacker seems to have gotten through the key a long time ago, very cleverly avoided monitoring, and transferred huge sums of money overseas.

The transfer process was extremely smooth, and the parties did not even receive the transfer information.

Everything is going on in secret.

The past success of "Reshaping the Universe" and the huge number of proud users seem so ironic at the moment.

More than 40% of people across the country have accounts for "Reshaping the Universe", and there are more than one billion players worldwide. And the game uses an online hosting system, which allows players to keep their accounts active in the game world while working or sleeping.

There are a lot of activities in the fifth anniversary version, and the massive rewards and feedback naturally attracted countless players to flood the server, and the number of online users hit a record high.

The more people online, the higher the amount stolen.

It was an achievement that could be proud of, but it became a mountain of backlash.

Finally someone found out that their money was gone, and quickly reported the crime and went online. The incident was spread at the speed of light.

Players checked their accounts one after another. By this time it was too late and the accounts had been emptied.

There is no evidence to prove that all this is caused by "reshaping the universe", because the transfer path is encrypted and has not been cracked for the time being. From the perspective of encryption level, even if it is cracked, the real path may not be found.

The public does not let SQUALL go because there is no real evidence. How to vent their anger has never needed the support of evidence.

There are constant criticisms on the Internet, and SQUALL has never been seen.

How much money was taken away, the police did not announce the results to the public, and there was not even a public press conference.

According to legend, as of the time when the accounts involved in the case were completely frozen, the total amount of money deducted was as high as 800 billion.

However, 800 billion is just the beginning.

"I didn't tell you that when I came back from my hometown, the police had already waited for me and took me away directly at the station." Xu Youyuan was calm when talking about this, but Shiye's back was cold. .

"800 billion... my god..." Shi Ye said, "I thought the amount was very large, but I didn't expect it to be so terrible..."

Xu Youyuan said: "The economic losses are actually easy to say, and the more terrifying ones are yet to come."

As the pioneer of holographic immersive games, "Reshaping the Universe", the game access device directly connected to neurons was hailed as a revolutionary product when it came out, and it was even called one of the greatest inventions of the 21st century. It allows players to truly immerse into the perfect game world, and get the most direct and exciting game experience in a game world that is infinitely close to the real world-this is also the main reason why "Reshaping the Universe" can achieve unprecedented success.

However, from the beginning of the game's launch to today, the voice of doubt about it has never stopped.

The operation of directly accessing neurons can indeed build a very real game scene in the brain, but for any damage to the brain, the critics feel that the report given by SQUALL is not authoritative enough to prove that their games are harmless to the human body. of.

SQUALL does not intend to pay attention to these doubts. After all, all the data show that players are not affected by these doubts, and the money earned is real.

As a producer, Xu Youyuan always puts "guaranteeing the personal safety of game players" in the first place. She is indeed like all contemporary young people who want to be successful and want to do something great that will change the world, but the four words "life is at stake" have always been hanging in her heart.

Since the earliest research and development, she has been the first batch of volunteers. All the experimental reports prove that her games have no harm to the human body.

What she has seen and personal experience will not be fake.

But this vehicle incident not only emptied the player's account, but even caused fatal damage to more than two hundred players.

According to their family's description, less than two minutes after entering the game, the injured fell into a coma with a scream and foamed at the mouth. He is still unconscious and has very similar symptoms.

For a time, all the media and the public focused their attention on "reshaping the universe," and verbal criticism continued.

Regardless of whether she admits it or not, Xu Youyuan, the project leader, has been pushed to the edge of the cliff.

Xu Youyuan stayed in the police station for two weeks before being released on bail.

She didn't know what happened in the past two weeks.

When she returned to the company, everything seemed to be settled.

It is said that the company hired people to recover most of the money and appease the families of the victims, and the families of the victims also plan not to pursue the case. What's more magical is that the family members changed their minds, saying that the wounded in the hospital did not happen because of playing "Reshaping the Universe", but because they had a history of other diseases, and "Reshaping the Universe" directly connected to neurons. There is no problem with the way.

The most important thing is that someone has already committed the crime.

Xu Youyuan was completely dumbfounded.

Immediately afterwards, the navy rushed into the social network to completely flush out the previous negative public opinion about the company.

The hacker group that invaded the game and transferred 800 billion yuan was picked up by SQUALL and submitted it to the police, which acted extremely quickly. From the beginning of the angry collective crusade, the people have now recovered their money and received an objective compensation. Naturally, their attitude has changed dramatically. In the later stage, there is no use of the water arms control field, and many people spontaneously speak for SQUALL.

It can be said that SQUALL perfectly avoided the dead spots in this disaster. Instead of being hit by a huge wave, it sank to the bottom of the sea, but instead rushed to a higher place through the turbulent waves.

All of this was solved perfectly within two weeks, which is incredible.

When Shi Ye heard this, he took a breath: "It's like..."

"You feel the same way, right." Xu Youyi's eyes were sharp, "It's like everything has been prepared."

"You mean, SQUALL executives had anticipated this a long time ago?" Shiye said, "Could it be that you were too worried? After all, it's such a big noise, even if the public relations are no matter how powerful it is, if someone takes money to talk, SQUALL itself will It’s not good for anyone to escape the negativity, right? And, isn’t someone guilty of it?"

Xu Youyuan said: "Someone has committed the crime. The reason why it is called'the crime of the crime' is because everyone understands that that person entered the game for me, and the real source of the problem lies with me.

"The two weeks in the police station were longer than two centuries. At the time, I really thought my life was over. However, when I came out and saw the situation clearly, I had another subtle feeling."
