Chapter 104

~6 min read 1,135 words

If Lu Yu were inside this house, he could naturally recognize that the person standing at the very front is Hawei.

Hawei is the top-tier hacker.

Last time, losing to Lu Yu in Huaxia was a blow to him.

He has never lost in his life so far.

But… strangely, after discovering he had lost, he was not discouraged; instead, he became excited.

This is probably the excitement of finding an opponent?

Year after year, standing at the pinnacle of this world, with no one to walk alongside and no opponent, is also a lonely thing.

So, when Hawei returned to Meizhou with his team, and when an aide of a certain leader hinted that he must clarify Huaxia's Firewall System, Hawei had no hesitation.

He brought his own team and the additional personnel assigned by a certain department, and together they organized this office.

When in Huaxia, the two sides could be described as petty skirmishes, hardly worthy of being called 'war'.

But after making sufficient preparations, the attack Hawei plans to launch can truly be described as war.

In this recent period, Hawei's attacks on Huaxia's Firewall System are probably about a million times those previously launched in that office?

It might even be far more.

What Hawei did not expect was that Huaxia's Firewall System is far more sturdy than he imagined; indeed, up to now no vulnerability has appeared!

This still did not make Hawei feel discouraged; instead, it aroused his fighting spirit.

His attacks grew denser and his firepower stronger.

Hawei must completely destroy it; otherwise he cannot demonstrate his strength.

Now… Hawei knows he is about to succeed.

The preceding attacks were not without effect.

At least the continuous attacks have provided him cover; he has already left many interfaces on Huaxia's Firewall System.

Awaiting a suitable opportunity, Hawei can use these interfaces to invade the opponent's core.

Then Hawei will naturally be able to fully control the Firewall System's mechanism, and destroying it will become effortless.

He could even steal all the data guarded by the Firewall System.

Of course, Hawei is not interested in these things.

But Hawei will still do this.

After all…

Someone has paid a high price for these things.

So…

Let's continue!

……

Lu Yu and Professor Chen came to Jingdu together.

As soon as they got off the plane, someone came to pick them up, and they didn't even need to use the normal entry/exit passage.

Lu Yu deliberately paid attention to the people who came to fetch them.

These people had no expression on their faces, their posture was always ramrod straight, and when they spoke they never uttered an unnecessary word, appearing cold and formidable.

As for the identities of these people… Lu Yu did not speculate, nor did he intend to inquire.

Lu Yu only needed to know that these people were present; that he and Professor Chen were safe was enough.

Under their escort, the two quickly arrived at a certain department and entered an office.

"Professor Chen, you've come."

"This is… Lu Yu, right?"

Someone came forward, greeted Professor Chen, then turned his gaze to Lu Yu.

Professor Chen gave a slight nod.

The person smiled and said, "Come with me."

The person led Professor Chen and Lu Yu through this office, then… actually entered another office.

Compared with the spacious office outside, this one is much smaller, only the size of a classroom.

But the equipment inside…

Lu Yu could not even identify the configuration of these devices; they must have been specially custom-made.

"Team Leader Zhang, this is Professor Chen and Lu Yu, the developers of the Firewall System; they will work here for a while, and I hope you can cooperate with each other."

The person who had just brought Professor Chen and Lu Yu over began to introduce both sides.

The Zhang Team Leader mentioned by this person, in his early thirties, wore a pair of heavy glasses, but his eyes still could not hide his sharp gaze.

Team Leader Zhang glanced at Professor Chen, nodded, then looked at Lu Yu, but showed no reaction.

Obviously… Team Leader Zhang has heard of Lu Yu; otherwise, as the person in charge here, he would have already driven Lu Yu away.

But… Team Leader Zhang certainly still cannot fully trust Lu Yu, due to a lack of recognition of his ability.

After all, Lu Yu is too young; no matter how talented, he has limits.

"Professor Chen, let me tell you what happened while you were away."

"I started taking charge of this project the day before yesterday, and I have finished reviewing your previous records."

"This Firewall System is indeed unique; it should be the best Firewall System in Huaxia to date."

"Otherwise, it could not withstand such frequent and high-quality attacks."

"But according to our members' judgment, the Firewall System has already developed many loopholes; continuing like this may not be sustainable for much longer."

"Now, our recommendation is to replace the Firewall System."

Team Leader Zhang did not beat around the bush; he directly stated the current situation.

Professor Chen's brows involuntarily furrowed; he did not disagree with the other's opinion, nor did he think there was anything wrong with replacing his firewall system.

But…… can the replaced firewall system withstand the outside attacks?

"Team Leader Zhang, I'm not opposing your decision, but…… have you considered the risks?"

"During the process of replacing the firewall system, can you guarantee that the other side will not launch attacks or infiltrate?"

"Moreover, as you said, our firewall system is already among the best in the country; switching to another firewall probably won't withstand others' attacks."

Lu Yu, however, suddenly spoke up at this moment.

The setting here is extraordinary; every word could cause extremely serious consequences, something ordinary people cannot bear.

But Lu Yu still spoke, his tone still extremely firm.

When it's time to act, Lu Yu is never vague!

Team Leader Zhang's brows furrowed tightly, his gaze finally landing on Lu Yu.

He remained silent for a while, then looked toward Professor Chen and said, "Professor Chen, is this your opinion?"

Professor Chen was about to nod when Lu Yu's voice sounded again.

"Whose opinion matters? What matters is feasibility."

"Could it be that here, making a decision still depends on personal prestige rather than whether the decision is correct and more likely?"

Lu Yu stared fixedly at Team Leader Zhang.

Team Leader Zhang's brows furrowed into a line; obviously his mood was very bad at this moment, even with the possibility of an outburst.

"So…… what do you plan to do?"

"You'd better think it through before speaking."

"You should know that every word spoken here is worth a fortune."

"A mistaken judgment will unleash unimaginable consequences."

Team Leader Zhang said.
