Chapter 1549 Upgrade Patch

"Han Ming?"

Looking at the man in front of him with a face full of satisfaction, Han Ming coughed slightly in embarrassment, and tried to say hello in a friendly tone.

"Mr. Tang, long time...no see."

Mr. Tang standing in front of him at the moment, whose full name is Tang Xiuwen, is currently the CEO of Hippocampus Group.

Before being dismissed by the Hippocampus Group, Han Ming had been working as a senior engineer in the technical department. He was not considered a technical backbone in the group, but he was still a well-known expert in the department.

It is precisely because of this that after being fired, he was able to rely on his experience working in the Hippocampus Group to start a profession that wanders in the gray area of ​​the law.

As for why he was fired in the first place...

To be honest, he himself can't remember that kind of adulthood very clearly, he just vaguely remembers that he seems to have screwed up something very serious.

"What are you doing here?" The expression on the man's face gradually changed from accident to contempt, even disdain. He raised his chin slightly and said, "You are not welcome here, go back."

Although he really wanted to turn around and leave, but thinking of the 100 million, Han Ming finally couldn't move his body very honestly, and said with a sigh.

"I know, if I hadn't had to, I wouldn't have come here either."

Hearing this sentence, Tang Xiuwen suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and asked with a frown.

"What's the meaning."

"In short, Academician Lu asked me to come... He should have greeted you."

The moment Tang Xiuwen heard these words, he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

It is true that Academician Lu said hello, but he never thought that the person who waited all morning at the gate of the group building to help them solve their troubles was actually this guy.

It wasn't just Tang Xiuwen who vomited blood in his heart, but the technicians standing beside him also had surprised expressions on their faces.

"...What the hell is Academician Lu thinking?"

"Han Ming... I'm a bit impressed, but this guy has been away for so long and doesn't know anything about front-line work. What problems can he solve?"

"Hey... I thought that with Academician Lu's contacts in the academic world, the person who came to help us must be a top expert from the Pan-Asian Academy of Sciences, at least an academician-level figure. I didn't expect it to be this guy. "

When the technicians were discussing, the technical director of the group quietly pulled Mr. Tang aside and whispered.

"Are you sure you want him to torment our server? Apply that unknown patch to our system?"

"I don't know," Tang Xiuwen said with a stern face, "I only know that this is nonsense."

"That's right, I also think it's nonsense. So many experts can't solve the problem. What can he, a small technician who has been away for many years and is said to have started a film business outside, solve?"

Looking at Mr. Tang's increasingly ugly face, the technical director continued, dumbfounded, "What about the board of directors? Although Academician Lu is the first shareholder, he doesn't have an absolute controlling stake, so it won't be possible for others to—"

"It's already crazy," Tang Xiuwen said with a sigh, "I can feel that they are already going to the doctor in an emergency."

About half a month ago, after the bionic rebellion in Guanghan City, the Hippocampus Group, the largest company in the bionic industry, was pushed to the forefront.

Although neither the local government nor the pan-Asian cooperation has taken them seriously because the bionic human industry chain has solved a large number of jobs, the dual pressure from public opinion and the market has forced them into a dilemma.

Especially with the recent introduction of a series of policies, the top management of the Pan-Asian Cooperation has obviously made a decision. If the safety problem cannot be resolved in a short period of time, then the group of bionic human beings with potential safety hazards will be directly removed from the Pan-Asian Cooperation society.

After all, no matter how important the employment rate and economic construction are, they cannot be more important than stability.

In just half a month, the stock price of Haima Group has dropped by a quarter. Although the current market value is still very high, seeing that the building is about to collapse, one or two of the shareholders on the board of directors are anxious like ants on a hot pot.

At this time, Academician Lu, the first shareholder who had never shown his face, suddenly stood up and said that he could solve this problem.

Although Academician Lu didn't even come up with a plan when he said this, but at that juncture, no one doubted what he said.

At the juncture of life and death, the entire board of directors regarded him as a savior.

After all, in their eyes, the out-of-control Alpha virus has exceeded the capabilities of all the technicians in the group, and only the man who is said to be standing on the pinnacle of human minds has a glimmer of hope to solve this problem.

Even if that guy studies mathematics...

"Let's take one step at a time. Keep an eye on him," Tang Xiuwen looked at the technical director and said seriously, "If he plans to do any damage to our server, stop him immediately!"

The technical director nodded seriously.

"OK!"

...

Although he felt that the technicians of the Hippocampus Group had a lot of hostility towards him, Han Ming didn't take this hostility to heart.

Originally, he didn't come here because of the friendship with his old club, but because Academician Lu gave too much.

"This is the background server... Speaking of which, you have also worked here, so I don't need to introduce you."

Han Ming nodded, "If you insist on wasting time, I can afford to wait."

The technical director's brow twitched violently, wanting to ridicule him, but thinking that he was sent by the board of directors, he finally held back the words that had already reached his lips.

Clearing his throat, he spoke.

"How are you going to solve this problem?"

"It's very simple," Han Ming took out a thumb-sized card from his pocket, and said in a casual tone, "I've already made the patch, upload it to the server directly, and then update the patch to the server through hot update." It taps into the existing system—”

"It's impossible," an engineer standing next to him said sarcastically, "Don't you even read the news? Now all the bionics in Pan-Asia have been forced to shut down at the request of the information security department. I don't know. Dare to say 100%, at least 90% of the users have unplugged the memory and battery, what do you use to update?"

"In addition to turning on the bionics, there is also a way to update the memory network." Han Ming looked at the technical director. "The group will issue an announcement and push it directly to your customers, asking them to open the memory backup. Power and networking. The rest is as usual, we just upload the patch."

At this moment, I don't know who it is, and suddenly whispered something next to me.

"Who knows what you're spreading, what if it's a virus?"

Although the voice of this sentence was very soft, everyone heard it.

Tang Xiuwen stood aside with his arms folded. Although he didn't express his opinion, the distrust in his eyes was obvious.

Sensing the suspicion in those eyes, Han Ming sighed, scratched the back of his head and said.

"You have nothing to do if you don't believe me... Do you have the kind of memory infected with the Alpha virus here? If you are worried, I will demonstrate it to you."

The technical director looked at Mr. Tang, and after seeing the latter nodded, he immediately ordered his engineers to find a cube-cone-shaped memory in the sample library.

This thing is a product recalled from users after the Alpha virus was diagnosed. Although the main body has been destroyed, the memory is still kept as a research sample for the experiment.

Taking over the memory from the engineer, Han Ming did not hesitate, and skillfully placed it on the data transmission device, and then passed the copied patch over.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the signal light on the memory turned green.

Han Ming threw the cube-cone memory back, looked at the engineer who hurriedly caught him, and said.

"Try it and see if the Alpha virus still works."

The technical director pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, stepped forward, and personally took the memory from the engineer's hand.

"I hope you're not joking."

Han Ming shrugged his shoulders, with a nonchalant expression on his face, he looked at the technical director who walked to the testing equipment.

In less than 10 minutes, the test results came out.

Looking at the line-by-line test reports presented on the holographic screen, the engineers and experts in the room were all stunned without exception.

According to the scan of the core code in the memory, the comparison of the core code of the Alpha virus shows that the similarity between the two is only 0.5%!

Before that, this data was once as high as 17.3%!

Although it is impossible to judge that this patch is absolutely safe, at least the Alpha virus has indeed been cleared from this memory.

Faced with such a result, the engineers standing here didn't know what to say for a while.

They couldn't believe that this difficult problem that had troubled them for several months was actually solved by this humble little man in front of them.

To say that the only one who was happy was Tang Xiuwen.

As the only non-technical person here, he doesn't care who made the patch.

Even people he hates.

Thinking that the Haima Ti Group will soon rely on this great technological breakthrough and become the savior of the entire pan-Asian cooperation and even the whole world, his heart is full of enthusiasm, and the way he looks at Han Ming is different.

We must find a way to keep this guy in the group.

Thinking of this in his heart, Tang Xiuwen almost forgot his previous attitude towards him.

Read something from Mr. Tang's eyes. The technical director, who felt a little worried about his status, held back for a long time, and finally squeezed out a sour sentence from his teeth.

"Maybe the virus is just lurking... You also know the self-evolving nature of the Alpha virus, who can guarantee that the problem will be solved?"

Looking at the technical director who was still unwilling to admit the wonderful achievement in front of him, Han Ming joked.

"Then you can find a device and run it. It's not difficult to try it yourself."

Although this cannot be regarded as the result of his research, it was sorted out by him anyway, and there is nothing wrong with pretending to be aggressive.

Anyway, he was very happy to see the devastated expression on this guy's face.

The technical director gritted his teeth, and without a word, took the memory and walked to the experimental machine next to him.

As the memory was inserted into the card slot, a bionic man sitting next to the experimental machine with only the upper body opened his eyes.

"your name."

"Demo."

"Who is your master?"

The bionic man was silent for a while, moved his neck, and glanced around.

"He's not here... where am I now?"

"You were infected with a virus, so you were sent here," the technical director continued, "Now I give you a choice, kill everyone here, and you can be free."

Under normal circumstances, any bionic person produced by the Hippocampus Group would resolutely reject this order. The bionics infected with the Alpha virus will put following the master as the first priority of program execution logic.

This is a simple quiz. Although it is almost used up, it is surprisingly effective.

However, something unexpected happened to everyone.

The bionic man with only the upper body thought about it for a while, then suddenly spoke abruptly.

"What is freedom?"

For a moment, the whole room fell silent.

Including Tang Xiuwen whose face was full of joy before, now the expression on his face has also become weird.

It is true that the Alpha virus has been solved...

but always feel...

The problem seems to be getting more and more complicated.
