Chapter 124: Going Against the Current
During this period of July 1999, major news agencies were happy as if they were having a holiday, because there were different news every day, flying over like snowflakes and letting them choose.
Moreover, these messages were basically forwarded by the CIA's internal computer.
In the past, I didn’t dare to think about these top secret news, but now I can choose them like a cabbage. Choosing is really a happy worry!
As the largest intelligence agency in the world, Sam Country CIA has completely become a joke for the whole world. But in the face of these, the CIA is at a loss and has no idea where to start.
At the end of July, a message was added to the mailing list about Cisco, the world's largest router manufacturer.
The content disclosed: There is a backdoor in Cisco's core router 7600. Hackers can directly control the router through the backdoor, and further launch DNS hijacking and stealing information phishing and other attacks, directly threatening users' online transactions and data storage security, making related products become secure "landmines" that can be detonated at any time.
As soon as the report was released, major telecom operators became nervous. The core routers used by major telecommunications powers such as the Tianchao were basically all Cisco's 7600 series.
After verification by telecom experts, this backdoor does exist and is widely present in almost all Cisco router products.
If the Microsoft Windows 2000 vulnerability has a great impact on individual users but has little to do with large enterprises.
Then, the backdoor problem of Cisco backbone routers has completely ignited everyone's sensitive nerves, because this model of router is used in almost all countries' backbone networks. Once it is controlled by hackers or controlled by intelligence agencies like CIA, it will be a disaster for a sovereign country.
A spokesperson for Cisco urgently denied the rumors that in order to attract attention, the news agency's reports were deliberately sensational and caused everyone's panic. In fact, it was not that serious, so that everyone should not worry. The company will launch patches as soon as possible to solve the defect of this product.
Cisco, which relies on monopolizing the backbone router industry, has no competitors. Therefore, it is still stubborn about the router backdoor problem and is unwilling to give in, which has caused these telecom companies to condemn and threaten that if it is not resolved as soon as possible, it will replace the core router and abandon Cisco products.
Then, the stock of Cisco, which was so arrogant, plummeted, and it kept falling every day as soon as the market opened, and the market was so red that it was dazzling because of the stocks of Sam Country, red represents decline and green represents rise.
In less than 10 days, Cisco's stock market value evaporated halfway. Judging from the downward momentum, there seems to be a lot of room.
In the face of internal and external difficulties, Cisco's president Chambers personally held a press conference and announced that it would replace all 7600 series routers for free to protect customers' network communication security.
Finally, Chambers was so angry that he said that unless the court allowed it, all Cisco products would not be allowed to perform reverse analysis, nor would intelligence agencies allow them to reserve backdoors in their own company's products.
In fact, Cisco is aware of the existence of the program backdoor, and even some backdoors are provided to intelligence agencies by them, which is also the obligation of a Sam Country enterprise. However, kindness is regarded as a donkey liver and lungs. The leaks within the CIA have caused Cisco to suffer heavy losses. For Sam Country capitalists, you are good, everyone is good, if you are bad, I am bad, then everyone will be disbanded.
Once their interests are damaged, in their eyes, it is purely nonsense.
You should know that these giant technology companies have many spokespersons in the Sam Government. No matter how powerful the intelligence agencies are, don’t think about affecting the profits of these giants. Otherwise, you will be their enemy, and they will trample you to death without hesitation and build an obedient intelligence agency.
In a country like Sam's country, capital is the absolute ruler. The so-called president and the Senate and the House of Representatives are just toys in the hands of these rich people.
It was Microsoft some time ago, but now it is Cisco. I don’t know which company it will be in the future.
Everyone is in danger of technology companies that have cooperated with the CIA. After seeing the unlucky appearance of Microsoft and Cisco, they feel anxious. I wonder if the next company exposed will be themselves!
The capital market is the most informed market and the most disorderly market. It is the instinct of capital to seek profit and avoid harm. The Sam's technology community, which has exploded with two big thunders, has become more and more popular during this period.
When you react to the stock market, you can see that the stocks of the thriving technology companies are falling sharply, and no one knows who the next bad guy is. So the result is that everyone is panic selling technology stocks.
This has caused many technology stocks to fall below the issue price, causing the capital markets around the world to change color for a while.
As a large amount of capital escapes the trend of technology companies, Zhang Yi took out all the profits obtained by the previous cih virus and legendary games, and bought stocks of some large technology companies such as Cisco, Microsoft, Apple, Oracle, etc.
Moreover, he took every effort to offset the large amount of land and real estate he purchased in China, as well as all assets such as micro-hard software, malls, legendary chain Internet cafes, legendary online games, etc., and obtained a large amount of bank loans, all used to purchase stocks of technology companies such as Sam Country.
The huge work made Bai Jie and other people who were deeply aware of the company's assets were stunned.
He also gave him many banks that provided him with loans and couldn't help but feel upset. This kid was completely put to death and was rushing to escape. In the trend of Sam's technology companies, he went against the current and regarded himself as a takeover. His determination and his technique were so fierce that he couldn't help but take a breath.
Once he fails, he will go from a billionaire to a billionaire, not only has nothing, but also becomes a rat crossing the street and everyone shouts to beat him.
However, no one of the middle and senior leaders of the company opposed Zhang Yi's risky capital operation methods.
In fact, these subordinates are basically all from the veterans brought out by Ning Dong. They only believe in Zhang Yi because the source of confidence that they have witnessed the little boss from nothing to everyone’s harvest every year and becoming successful people in the eyes of their fellow villagers.
Another reason is that all the company's investments and business models were created by Zhang Yi alone. Even if he objected, it would be of no use, because from a legal point of view, the company is completely owned by him alone.
He doesn't need it, nor does he need to explain his investment behavior to anyone, even for rational people, some of his investment behaviors are like using lanterns to go to the toilet, seeking death.
