Top Student: Experience Infinite Occupations Chapter 203 – 203 Doubt

203 Doubt
“Why is there no signal on my mobile phone? Why can't I call? I can't send messages either.” At this moment, someone realized that he could neither make calls nor send messages on his mobile phone.

“I can't get online with my phone.” Then, someone realized that he couldn't go online with his mobile phone.

“What's wrong with my mobile phone? I can't open the photo album and the documents.”

“Oh my god, my mobile phone seems to be infected too!” Someone tried to open the photo album and documents. A window popped up requesting a virtual currency ransom within a deadline.

If the ransom wasn't paid on time, all the information in his phone would be deleted and couldn't be restored.
Some people had very important documents saved on their phones, and sweat broke out on their foreheads.

“Everyone, please be quiet!” Principal Wu said solemnly.

“I just received news that a Doomsday Extortion Virus invasion has occurred worldwide.”

“Currently, almost all computers and phones are infected with the Doomsday Extortion Virus. All documents can't be used.”

“Moreover, what's even more terrifying is that the domain name servers are also infected with the Doomsday Extortion Virus. It can't provide domain name resolution services, causing all websites to be inaccessible.”

“At the same time, the IP address distribution servers are also infected with the virus and can't provide IP address distribution services.”

“Any service that relies on the internet will stop functioning!”

“As a result, we can't use our phones to communicate or surf the internet.”

“But don't worry, everyone. All the cybersecurity engineers in the world are doing their best. I believe the virus will be eliminated soon.”

After Principal Wu finished speaking, he was about to allow the reporters to continue asking questions.

Because the internet had lost its function, the live broadcast could not continue.

He could only settle for the next best thing, which was to record the proceedings and then broadcast it later after the internet was restored.

“No, not all the equipment is infected! The Divine Dragon System used by Li Chengqian was not infected. The virus was even killed by the System.” At this moment, someone said loudly.

“My Long Yao Generation 3 mobile phone isn't infected either!”

At this moment, a commotion broke out in the crowd. “My Huawei Breakthrough Generation 1 mobile phone isn't infected either.”

The foreign reporter who had been scolded by Principal Wu earlier heard the discussion in the crowd. He looked at the scene and a thought flashed in his mind. He thought of a possibility, he seemed to have discovered the truth, and his eyes shone with excitement.

“Only equipment using Windows, Apple, Linux and the linux variants are infected.”

“Who stands to benefit the most when Windows, Apple and Linux are in trouble?”

“It's the Divine Dragon Software Company! This virus is definitely developed by the Divine Dragon Software Company to attack competitors and to terrorize users into migrating to the Divine Dragon System.”

Immediately, the foreign reporter questioned loudly.

“Mr. Li, I want to ask why the other systems are infected with the virus, but your Divine Dragon System is not?”

After the foreign reporter said this, the originally noisy auditorium instantly fell silent.

In fact, when they saw on the big screens that the other systems were infected with the virus but the Divine Dragon System was not, many people were puzzled.

When everyone realized that the Android and Apple phones were infected with the virus, but the phones using the Divine Dragon System were not infected, they became suspicious. Why were the other systems infected with the virus but only the Divine Dragon System was spared?

Could it be that this virus was developed by the Divine Dragon Software Company?

Many people had such thoughts.

Not only did ordinary people have doubts in their hearts, but even the experts on the stage had doubts hidden in the depths of their eyes.

This was because the outbreak of the Doomsday Extortion Virus was only beneficial to the Divine Dragon Software Company!

Li Chengqian glanced coldly at the foreign reporter. “Mr reporter, don't spout nonsense!”

“As I said just now, baseless allegations are meaningless!”

“If you frame me again, I'll definitely sue you for slander!”

“As long as a virus incident happens in the online world, you'll push the blame to me immediately. This is simply a joke!”

“Are you going to push the blame to me when you did a paternity test and realized that your son wasn't your child?”

The foreign reporter became visibly upset upon hearing Li Chengqian's words.

Li Chengqian glanced at him and continued, “Does everyone want to know why the Divine Dragon System isn't infected with the virus?”

“I'll explain it briefly. Because it's too complicated, not everyone will understand.

“Actually, no virus can infect the Divine Dragon System!”

“This is because the Divine Dragon System will create an operating space for every software! This space is a sandbox! Any software's operation and the virus's operation will be strictly limited to the sandbox. It's equivalent to being physically isolated from the outside world.”

“In the Divine Dragon System, there is a built-in intelligence-level safety assessment mechanism. When a virus operates, the system will detect the abnormality in the sandbox. The sandbox that was originally impossible to break through will be reinforced again.”

“The sandbox mechanism is the core security mechanism of the Divine Dragon System. It can resist any virus attack.”

“The sandbox mechanism is not only embedded in the computer version, but also in the server version of the Divine Dragon System. It also exists in the Divine Dragon System mobile version.”

“That's why the computers and phones installed with the Divine Dragon System didn't get infected.”

“This is also the reason why the Divine Dragon System is immune to any virus,” Li Chengqian said confidently.

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, the doubts in everyone's eyes immediately decreased a lot.

According to Li Chengqian, the Divine Dragon System was immune to all virus attacks. No virus could attack the Divine Dragon System. It was normal for it not to be infected.

This wasn't specifically targeted at the current Doomsday Extortion Virus.

With this explanation, the suspicion of Divine Dragon Software Company was instantly reduced by more than half.

“No matter how you explain it, you can't explain one thing. In this Doomsday virus incident, the Divine Dragon Software Company will be the biggest beneficiary,” the foreign reporter roared angrily.

Just now, he had been the butt of Li Chengqian's joke when he made the analogy. Now, his heart was filled with anger, and he only wanted to counterattack and take revenge.

“Mr reporter, I'm starting to doubt your identity as a reporter!” Li Chengqian glanced coldly at the foreign reporter.

“This is my ID!” The foreign reporter didn't back down and showed his reporter ID.

Then, like a rooster that had won a battle, he said arrogantly and loudly, “Mr. Li, please don't avoid my question. Please answer my question directly. Everyone is waiting for your answer.”

“You're simply an idiot. You actually said that our Divine Dragon Software Company will benefit from this?”

“The IP address distribution servers and the domain name servers are not functioning. The internet cannot function.”

“Divine Dragon Software is also a company that relies on the internet. In particular, almost all of our software are internet-based.”

“There's a problem with the internet and thus all the software provided by our company can't function. The Divine Dragon Software Company will suffer greater losses than the other companies because of this.”

“And you actually said that the Divine Dragon Software Company stands to benefit the most from this? I don't know how you came up with this illogical conclusion. Perhaps your Sunset Empire's logic and knowledge system is different from ours?”

“Let me tell you, in this matter, there is only one true profiteer, and that is the hacker, Cerberus! The others are all losers!” Li Chengqian spoke bluntly in a cold and stern tone.

The foreign reporter was furious and his face turned red. He was tempted to rush up and fight Li Chengqian. “F*cker, you damn yellow monkey, how dare you insult me…!”

The two security guards beside him saw that something was wrong. On Principal Wu's signal, they lifted him up like he was a chick and covered the foreign reporter's mouth tightly before bringing him out.

Li Chengqian appeared to be scolding the foreign reporter, but in fact, he was talking to everyone in the auditorium.

After everyone heard Li Chengqian's words, they thought about it carefully and realized that what Li Chengqian said indeed made sense.

Especially in the current situation when the internet could not be used normally.

The restrictions on the Divine Dragon Software Company was actually the greatest.

For the systems of other companies, where the internet is not available, they can be re-installed via CD-ROMs and USB drives.

As for the Divine Dragon System, the current installation method was to download it through the official website and install it through the one-click migration software.

Now that the internet was cut off, the one-click migration software could not be downloaded. Even if it was downloaded, it could not be used.

Even if the Divine Dragon System was immune to the virus, it could not be promoted.

Principal Wu gestured to the reporter from the national television station to continue.

However, because of the virus, he really wanted to end this press conference as soon as possible and work on eliminating the virus.

The other experts on stage had the same thought.

Originally, many people were very interested in Li Chengqian's question and answer, but because of the virus, everyone was whispering with worry on their faces. Their attention had already shifted.

In modern society, everything was interconnected. Many things relied on the internet. Everyone felt uncomfortable, inconvenienced, and even anxious once the internet is down.

Everyone's money was all in the phone. After the internet went down, even getting food was a big problem. Everyone was quietly discussing how long it would take for an anti-virus tool to be developed and for life to go back to normal.

“Reporter friends, I won't be talking about our future development for the time being!”

“I feel that the most important thing for us to do now is to get the internet to work again. This is more important than anything else,” Li Chengqian said with a solemn expression.
