The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

In December 1994, a fishing boat was fishing in the sea area dozens of nautical miles northwest of the Yellow River estuary, north of Dongying.

Suddenly, a strangely shaped large fish appeared in front of them.

"Old Xing, big fish, hurry up and scoop it up."

The fishermen were very excited, pointing to the big fish floating on the sea with joy on their faces.

They quickly and frantically pulled it ashore, but when they saw the big fish, they were all dumbfounded.

There are words on it, but few people can understand them.

Because most fishermen are illiterate, only the captain can read.

So everyone called the captain over to the deck to see what was written on the strange big fish.

"Release it quickly. This big fish belongs to our national research institution, and the writing on it tells us to release it."

"What?"

Old Xing's eyes widened:

"Weren't these fish caught by us? Why are we releasing them?"

The captain patted Old Xing on the shoulder and scolded him:
"These are fake fish, what do we want with them?"

"A soft-shelled turtle? This doesn't look like a soft-shelled turtle at all. Do soft-shelled turtles even exist in the ocean?"

Faced with Lao Xing's nonsense, the captain was so angry that he cursed loudly.

"Stop messing with me, get this fish back into the sea right now, honestly."

So the big fish was thrown back into the sea.

In this cold weather, it's already difficult enough for everyone to go out to sea to fish. It's so rare to catch a big fish, but it turns out to be fake. What bad luck!

Despite the captain's explanation that it was equipment from some research institution, and not a real fish.

But everyone was still very dissatisfied.

After discussing it, Lao Xing and his friends decided to go all in and, behind the captain's back, retrieved the big fish and secretly hid it away.

"Isn't this some kind of equipment? We'll take it back and dismantle it. Even if we sell it as scrap, it's better than getting nothing at all, right?"

That's why they say when people are poor, they'll do anything.
These fishermen were all illiterate and could not read a single word. They did not have any lofty ideals or beliefs; they just wanted to make a living, nothing more.

After the fishing boat docked, Lao Xing and the other fishermen immediately took the big fish home and dismantled it.

There was a funny incident during the process: after the big fish was opened, there was a red light flashing inside.

According to the plot of the movie, this is a bomb, and it is about to explode.

So they sprinted out of their house.

It also aroused the curiosity of the local police officer.

After some investigation, the police officers at the local police station learned that Lao Xing and his fellow fishermen had actually brought back equipment from the research institution.

This infuriated the police station chief, who gave Lao Xing and his men a severe dressing-down.

"You bunch of good-for-nothings! If this delays our scientists' research, you could die a hundred times over!"

Soon, the police station handed the big fish over to their superiors, asking them to help deliver it to the relevant authorities.

Within two days, the special operations department intervened in the investigation.

Old Xing and the other fishermen were brought to the police station again for questioning.

This terrified the fishermen.

Although they blatantly disobeyed the captain's orders and brought back the big fish, they were only greedy for small gains and had no intention of doing anything bad like murder or arson; they didn't have the guts to do so.

In a short period of time, they were imprisoned twice, and their spirits were worn down.

The comrades from the special operations department were quite serious and demanded that Lao Xing and his team provide the detailed address of the sea area.

Asking them for latitude and longitude is definitely not an option; you can only ask the captain.

The captain was then summoned to the interrogation room of the special operations department.

Upon learning that Lao Xing and his men had caused the trouble, the captain readily admitted it. However, he hoped that the special operations team would let Lao Xing and his men off the hook, and that he would take full responsibility.

The special operations team was so angry they wanted to kill someone.

"Do you think this is a vegetable market? You still want to bargain? Quickly and honestly explain the whole story, don't embellish it, otherwise you'll suffer."

Intimidation is merely the most basic interrogation tactic.

Intimidation tactics are highly effective against ordinary people.

After obtaining the specific latitude and longitude coordinates and the details of the incident, the special operations department quickly entered the case into the archives.

And ask the police station to give Lao Xing and his family some compensatory reward.

Inform the captain and Lao Xing that if they encounter a similar large fish in the future, they must notify the police station immediately.

The big fish was quickly sent up.

Given the seriousness of this case, the special operations department needs to conduct a full-scale investigation.

But not long after, it was late December.

The Special Operations Bureau's Harbin branch quickly discovered a case related to Big Fish while searching the internal network.

This case may be related to the laboratory explosion that happened today.

Wang Duoyu had just returned to the island in the middle of the lake when he received a call from a comrade from the special operations department, who mentioned the matter of the big fish.

"Please contact the authorities in Beijing right now and send me the relevant intelligence information about this big fish. I'd like to see what the situation is."

The big fish that Lao Xing and his team caught.

After being sent to the capital, it was quickly dismantled.

Many of the components inside were disassembled and disassembled one by one.

Electronic components such as signal transmitters, signal receivers, and memory chips were disassembled one by one.

Most of the electronic components were quickly identified and their specific functions were determined.

However, there is one thing they have not yet cracked: the memory chip. They have set up a very complex password, and it is even equipped with a self-destruct bomb inside.

They have dismantled the so-called self-destruct bomb, but there is another layer of secret protection that is even more difficult to remove.

Therefore, Wang Duoyu wanted to take on the challenge.

When the leaders of the Special Operations Bureau's Beijing headquarters learned of this, they were naturally overjoyed and sent the "big fish" to Harbin.

It only took a little over six hours in total.

That's really fast.

Meanwhile, the wounded soldier who had escaped had not yet been found, which made the situation even more urgent.

They might have a safe house in the city.

Finding the other person then becomes even more difficult.

Furthermore, the longer the delay goes on, the more disadvantageous it will be for the special operations department.

You have to understand that locking down the city can't go on forever.

Especially in Harbin, which is still the most economically developed city in the country, we must be even more cautious.

Once the equipment was delivered to the villa on the island in the lake, Wang Duoyu immediately began to crack it.

Two supercomputers were operating together.

At the same time, Wang Duoyu himself also personally participated.

It took less than twenty minutes to crack the code.

This thing isn't very difficult; it's much simpler than the math problems he'd encountered before.

It's like asking Wang Duoyu to calculate the odds of winning the lottery; he could easily crack it.

These are relatively simple questions, and with such references, it's naturally easier for him to solve them.

Once unraveled, the contents become clear at a glance.

However, Wang Duoyu was extremely angry after reading the contents.

A considerable amount of information was leaked, including a very detailed list, which he immediately handed over to the Special Operations Bureau for processing.

For the next period of time.

Research institutions in various regions would conduct a secret purge.

"These bastards across the Pacific are really asking for it!"

After seeing the data inside the memory, Wang Duoyu was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

Besides the Bohai Sea, there are probably many such 'big fish' in other coastal waters such as the Yellow Sea.

Therefore, these large fish must be cleared out in the near future.

That's a minor matter; the Special Operations Bureau can handle it. Wang Duoyu doesn't need to worry about it.

He's now thinking about how to retaliate against the intelligence agency.

He had previously massacred those sheepdogs multiple times.

Wang Duoyu was quite helpless, not expecting that so much had been hidden.

It seems that these sheepdogs are like barnacles in the ocean; once they're scratched, they quickly get covered again.

"No, I have to cause them some trouble too, so they won't have time to think about anything else."

At the headquarters of 20th Century Fox in Los Angeles, an executive meeting is underway.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since the release of 'The Lord of the Rings,' the North American box office has been completely siphoned off by this film. Yesterday alone, the total box office in the US was $120 million, of which 'The Lord of the Rings' accounted for $86.72 million."

The CEO's voice wasn't loud, but everyone could hear the anger and envy in it.

Yesterday was Christmas Eve, a traditionally top-grossing holiday in North America.

However, even after so many days in theaters, Lord of the Rings still managed to gross $80 million in a single day, accounting for more than 70% of the total box office.

It's absolutely terrible.

Today is Christmas, and it's foreseeable that this movie's box office will continue to rise.

"The film was released in Europe last week, and in countries such as the UK, France, Germany, Ireland, and Italy, 'The Lord of the Rings' is doing very well at the box office, mostly topping the charts."

"Gentlemen, we must fight back! We must produce good films! We can no longer let this magic ring run rampant!"

The president of 20th Century Fox was very frustrated. When he spoke, it sounded like he was just shouting slogans. This was not the first time.

Unfortunately, they have yet to find a way to contain their competitors.

What can I do?

Warner Bros., Disney, Columbia Pictures, and other giants all wanted to make a move, but to no avail.

Universal Pictures is already struggling to survive. Their senior management has changed, and everyone is in a state of fear, so naturally, their priority is to make money and escape.

The company's parent company, Panasonic, also approached Levin Burns and Rowland Winster, hoping they could inquire with the capital behind them about whether they wanted to acquire Universal Pictures.

However, Wang Duoyu was not interested in Universal Pictures and declined the offer.

Today, Want Want Group owns two giants, Paramount and MGM, plus Marvel Studios with its vast film library, so it has no shortage of film projects.

On the contrary, acquiring Universal Pictures would make them an easy target of criticism.

It may even compete with Paramount, Marvel Studios and MGM for release dates, leading to internal competition.

Wang Duoyu isn't Zhou Botong, so naturally he wouldn't do something so thankless.

Besides, the ambidextrous fighting technique isn't a particularly difficult skill.

The entire Hollywood Big Eight are struggling with the soaring box office of "The Lord of the Rings" and are powerless to stop it.

Furthermore, the film has been released in major box office markets around the world, conquering new territories and making great strides.

It's estimated that the global box office will soon surpass one billion.

This is a very rare and significant hurdle.

"Is it possible to break through before this month?"

Zheng Baoyin and his team were inspecting Paramount headquarters when they learned that The Lord of the Rings could continue to break box office records and had the potential to become the highest-grossing film in history, so they inquired about it.

Paramount did such a good job this time that the executives naturally came to take a look.

Although no one really cares about the film's box office performance, even if it breaks two billion dollars, so what?

Compared to the various industries behind Want Want Group, Paramount's revenue is indeed not impressive.

Moreover, the lion's share of the box office revenue is actually taken by cinema giants.

In Hollywood, the box office revenue of a film is shared by three main entities: the production company, the distributor, and the theater chain.

The revenue sharing varies depending on the stage of the film's release.

For example, in the initial stage of a film's release, the production company and distributor can take more than 70% of the box office revenue.

Towards the end of the theatrical run, the production and distribution companies only received about 20% to 10% of the box office revenue.

Some movies even went on sale a month later, with all the box office revenue going to the cinemas.

This is very different from the box office revenue sharing system in China.

Even so, the theater chains are definitely the ones making the most money.

Especially for blockbuster movies like these, the higher the box office, the more money the theaters make.

"Yes, definitely!"

Levin Burns said confidently.

Zheng Baoyin and the others immediately smiled, expressing their great anticipation.

After the inspection, Zheng Baoyin and his entourage returned to New York. Before he could even go to sleep, he received a long-distance phone call from his uncle.

"Uncle, is there something you need so late?"

There is a time difference between New York and Harbin. It is still early morning where Wang Duoyu is, but it is nighttime in New York where Zheng Baoyin is.

"Okay, there's an emergency meeting in half an hour. Please inform everyone to attend, and make sure Jianchao attends too."

The reason Wang Duoyu specifically mentioned his nephew was naturally because Wang Jianchao had been slacking off lately.

This is definitely not possible.

"Okay, uncle."

Half an hour later, the video conference officially began.

"I'm not going to waste time with you all. I need to make the intelligence agency pay a price."

Lee Efra, Yabo Fein, Martinez, and others were all astonished. Wasn't this the very gift they had given to the three major agencies—the Security Service, the Intelligence Service, and the Bureau of Investigation—just two months ago?

Moreover, Want Want Group invested a considerable amount of money at the time.

Right now, intelligence agencies are busy putting out fires and causing trouble for mercenary organizations.

So Martinez and his team didn't quite understand why the intelligence agency had provoked Wang Duoyu again.

"There was an accident at one of my laboratory facilities; there was an explosion, and many people died."

Wang Duoyu didn't hide anything, he just gave a brief account, but didn't mention which laboratory it was.

In short, this time he's going to cause trouble for the intelligence agency, and now it's time for the executives to contribute money and effort.

In any case, Wang Duoyu only issues orders and assigns tasks; he only cares about the results and doesn't ask about the process.

At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that one's identity is not revealed, otherwise, one will be subject to family discipline.

"Okay, Professor (Uncle Jiu, Uncle), I understand."

The executives agreed in unison, and they were tasked with carrying out the task.

The meeting lasted less than five minutes before it ended—it was incredibly fast and efficient.

However, although Wang Duoyu has logged off, the others are still online, and they need to discuss how to deal with this mission.

It's probably unlikely that we'll be able to find those mercenary organizations again.

After all, those organizations aren't stupid; even if they're greedy, there's bound to be a limit.

If you look for ordinary goods, it's a waste of money.

It seems the only solution is to fight fire with fire.

hacker!

They paid hackers to cause trouble, and then spread all that information in the dark world.

The entire dark world is extremely chaotic, teeming with all sorts of monsters and demons.

Let the people of the dark world join in the fun, that's the real business.

This would allow Want Want Group to remain uninvolved and avoid any karmic troubles, while also fulfilling the task assigned by Wang Duoyu—a win-win situation.

As for money?
Haha, Want Want Group isn't afraid to spend money.

Currently, the world's most skilled hacking teams are based at Facebook and Amazon.

However, they are all regular soldiers, and they are not called hackers, but network security officers.

Aside from these people, there are still many top hackers hidden in the dark world, and they are all listed on the hacker leaderboard.

There may be some top hackers who can evade detection and not be on the hacker leaderboard, but they are very few and far between.

Soon, the Want Want Group announced its missions in places where people often communicated in the dark world, such as the dark web and forums.

In an instant, all the top hackers in the dark world were eager to try.

That's all money.

In the megacity of London, near an internet cafe, a young man named Douglas Mike rents a place.

Douglas was not his real name; it was just a name he made up when he forged his identity card.

He hacked into relevant departments of the London government and forged a series of identity documents for Douglas Mike, starting with his birth certificate.

With such identification, he could legitimately use the name.

"Hmm? A mission?" Night had fallen, but he was still awake, glued to his computer.

Upon seeing a quest posted on the Dark World forum, Douglas couldn't resist and immediately took action.

With his quick reflexes, he immediately accepted the task, confident that he could complete it successfully.

The reward for this task is a whopping twenty million US dollars.

The mission details were simply to hack into the CIA and extract all its data, involving at least twenty major mission plans.

This includes mission plans that have been executed before but not publicly disclosed.

Douglas Mike also frequently visits the back-end systems of the official websites of agencies such as MI6, the External Security Service, and the CIA, so he is well aware of the dirty dealings behind these agencies.

That's why he accepted the task immediately.

In less than half an hour, he hacked into the CIA's backend again and copied all the data.

More than twenty mission plans, such as the previously infamous Trap Plan, are all included in their entirety.

All this information was publicly available on dark web forums and on internet portals such as Facebook, Amazon, and Netscape.

In no time, this information spread rapidly, like a virus.

Furthermore, Douglas, not content with the spectacle, hacked into the backends of several email companies in Europe, packaged all the data from the CIA's 28 mission plans, and then mass-sent it to all users of those email companies.

In other words, all registered users of these email companies received this email, and the attachment contained details of these twenty-eight task plans.

This is really going to cause a huge uproar.

"Phew, it really arrived!"

After it was all over, Douglas Mike soon found $20 million in his Swiss bank account.

"Hehe, I should retire now that I've accomplished my mission!"

With twenty million US dollars in hand, Douglas knew that this move would inevitably attract attention.

So he made his escape immediately.

He didn't touch anything in the rented room, except for the computer.

It was still night outside in London, but he didn't care what time it was; he simply slipped away and made his escape.

Two hours later, he had changed his identity and become a waiter at a restaurant near Chinatown, Bolbyron.

The shift in identity from Douglas Mike to Bolbarron was very rapid.

After settling in, he continued to break down all the funds in his Swiss bank account into smaller, smaller amounts.

After a series of transfers, the money quickly disappeared.

The next day, London was still London, seemingly unchanged.

Bolbyron drove away from the Chinese restaurant to the London Gold Exchange, where he used some of his dollars to buy gold and then took it with him.

He also has safe houses in different places, including Great Britain, France, Germany, and the United States.

This time, he intends to store the gold in a very ordinary house on the outskirts of London.

This house is inhabited by a blind old man, and he is the blind old man's grandson.

So it's that simple.

He buried the gold deep in the lawn outside the house, so that no outsiders would know, and he even disguised it.

After making the arrangements, he left.

When he returned to Chinatown, he was surprised to find MI6 agents at the apartment he had stayed in the previous night.

He observed all of this through a pinhole camera.

Upon learning that someone had already been there, Bolbyren did not hesitate at all; he destroyed the camera and fled.

It's impossible to stay in Chinatown any longer, and it's impossible to stay in London either.

Fortunately, he also had identity cards in Scotland and Ireland, so he changed his name again and went to different places.

As a hacker, he knew all too well what would happen if he got caught.

They will completely lose their freedom and may even be imprisoned.

The path of hacking has been trodden by many predecessors, and it is indeed difficult. Bolbyren does not want to repeat their mistakes.

Just as Bolbarren began his life on the run, a hacker hiding in Ukraine also began his life on the run.

Since Want Want Group announced its mission yesterday, its intelligence bureau, security bureau, investigation bureau, and other agencies have been hacked, and most of the mission plans have been made public.

Public opinion has been in uproar.

No matter how much the intelligence agencies struggle, argue, or threaten the media, they cannot completely extinguish this raging fire.

Moreover, while some of the fires in the United States have indeed been extinguished, the documents in the mailboxes cannot be retrieved.

Moreover, many netizens have already saved this information on their own computers, so how could they possibly exclude it all?

Facebook and Amazon email accounts were unaffected; users who registered for these corporate email accounts did not receive any of the data.

After checking their accounts, netizens seemed to understand something and rushed to register email accounts.

Competition on the internet thus began.

However, everyone's attention was still focused on the intelligence agency, the security agency, and the investigation agency. Ordinary people had finally caught a glimpse of the dark methods and traps they used.

No, to be precise, it's a corner of hell.

These institutions are so dirty and chaotic.

Ice City, Ice City Institute for Advanced Studies.

"John, I have something to show you."

Smail handed the computer to John Milnor and opened one of the trap plans.

The full details of this trap plan are contained in this trap plan summary report.

From the very beginning, the trap operation was never formalized into a written order; it was merely a highly classified mission carried out verbally.

Later, as the mission progressed steadily and more people were contacted, written mission orders were formally issued.

The mission ultimately failed, and the summary report was released.

This report is all part of a kidnapping plot against Wang Duoyu, the global math emperor.

After reading it, John Milnor was overwhelmed with emotions including anger, disappointment, and guilt.

He stayed in Bingcheng because of Wang Duoyu, and the latter kept trying to persuade him to stay.

But he still wanted to go back to America, so he promised Wang Duoyu that he would go back in twenty years.

The longer he stays here, the less he wants to leave.

I had heard before that intelligence agencies and other organizations used some underhanded methods, but at the time John Milnor was not very willing to believe it.

Some even believe that Wang Duoyu has stopped going abroad since 1983, which is an overreaction to the situation.

In retrospect, Wang Duoyu was the true sage, having long since seen through all the demons and monsters.

At this moment, John Milnor finally understood how dangerous it had been for Wang Duoyu to travel to Zurich to attend the conference a few months earlier.

Fortunately, Wang Duoyu returned to Bingcheng safely; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Sigh, those people in the intelligence agency are really going too far!"

Smail shares the same sentiment; he is utterly disillusioned with the major American institutions.

In order to eliminate dissidents and achieve their goals, they resorted to such insidious means.

Now it has been exposed and is known worldwide.

It's so embarrassing.

“We used to have a sliver of hope for these institutions, but now it seems…” Smail didn’t finish his sentence.

However, his meaning was very clear: he was utterly disappointed with the United States and had given up all illusions.

In fact, it was Smail or John Milnor.

They were all intelligent people, and they knew that the reason they stayed in Bingcheng was because Wang Duoyu used many methods to make them stay willingly.

However, all the methods Wang Duoyu employed were open schemes.

For example, the food was better, and they received slightly better treatment than they did in the United States.

Most importantly, Wang Duoyu was willing to engage in mathematical exchanges with them, complete more research projects, promote the gradual improvement of the Langlands program, and accomplish the great task of this unified mathematical theory.

The core reason why John Milnor and his team were willing to stay in Ice City for so many years was the desire to leave a lasting mark on history.

All of these methods were open schemes, which Smail and his men were well aware of, so they were willing to comply and greatly admired Wang Duoyu.

However, compared to that, the methods used by the intelligence agency were completely underhanded.

That's too vulgar and too insidious.

Shing-Tung Yau, Wiles, Bocherz, and others quickly received these reports.

And just like that, they stirred up a hornet's nest.

With the energy of Wiles and his ilk, they are definitely not comparable to ordinary people.

As top mathematicians in the field, people like Shing-Tung Yau are acutely aware of the importance of freedom.

Although Wang Duoyu used an open strategy to gather everyone in Bingcheng, he never restricted their freedom. They could go wherever they wanted without anyone interfering or restricting them.

Therefore, Shing-Tung Yau and his colleagues are completely free to lecture or do whatever they want in other places.

However, the intelligence agency clearly stated in the trap plan that Wang Duoyu should be brought back to the United States and his departure should be restricted.

When necessary, electronic ankle locks may also be required to completely restrict their personal freedom.

All of this naturally enraged Wiles and his associates.

This is truly something the intelligence agency could pull off.

For a moment, Yau Shing-Tung and the others were extremely grateful that they had come to Ice City instead of remaining in North America.

While relieved, I was also utterly disappointed with the Americans.

They wrote letters to their friends in the United States, urging them to leave North America.

In fact, these people would have left long ago if they wanted to, without needing any persuasion.

In addition, Wiles, Shing-Tung Yau, Daniel Gray, Joseph Cohen, and others gave interviews or wrote articles to criticize Americans in newspapers.

Don’t talk about martial ethics!
Those people were really too much, too arrogant!
For a time, this was the most talked-about news in the world after Christmas.

Many ordinary people around the world only then realized that Wang Duoyu was actually the "Emperor of Mathematics," and that he had made so many achievements in the field of mathematics.

On the Harvard University campus, a group of international students were surrounded by their American classmates, who kept asking them about Wang Duoyu.

Because of the internet, everyone is paying close attention to the trap plan, and Wang Duoyu is the absolute protagonist of the plan.

The fact that the intelligence bureau, investigation bureau, and security bureau would expend such enormous manpower and resources on such a highly classified plan demonstrates just how high Wang Duoyu's true status really is.

The international students were not very clear about Wang Duoyu's specific achievements.

It wasn't until someone posted on the internet the four Fields Medals Wang Duoyu had won, along with the titles of the papers that proved his awards, that things came to light.

Everyone was silent.

Even if they don't know much about mathematics, they understand that these are remarkable scientific achievements.

Because without comparison, there is no harm.

Other Fields Medal recipients don't seem to have achieved much, except for Wang Duoyu, who has achieved a great deal.

Poincaré conjecture, ABC conjecture, Fermat's Last Theorem, honeycomb conjecture, restricted Bernside problem, geometric Langlands conjecture, fundamental lemma of automorphic forms in the Langlands program, reciprocity law conjecture, Collatz conjecture, infinite-dimensional partial differential equations, Wang's dichotomy theorem, etc.

In addition, recent discoveries include the functor conjecture, the new maximum value estimate of Dirichlet polynomials, new types of automorphic infinite products, the Riemann conjecture, and so on.

In conclusion, Wang Duoyu has too many scientific research achievements to list.

Ordinary people would feel suffocated after watching it.

"My God, is this still human? This must be the Son of God!"

"I think I can understand why the FBI insisted on bringing him back to our country. What future could such a genius have if he were left in the Far East?"

"Pah, shameless bastard! If Wang Duoyu hadn't made his way in some major country in the Far East, where would all these scientific research achievements have come from?"

"I can't express how much I admire him. If only I had even a tenth of his intelligence..."

Online discussions on this topic have gradually gone astray.

It seems that everyone's focus has shifted.

This is most likely a deliberate attempt by intelligence agencies or other departments to guide the process.

Washington, D.C., the FBI headquarters building.

Inside the director's office, Brian Ward looked utterly dejected.

Such a major incident occurred, and their investigation bureau was the last to know?

"Fake!"

Brian, burning with rage, really wanted to punch someone.

"Were you all raised on shit? Our backend was completely compromised, and you didn't even notice?"

"And it's been three days since this happened, and you still haven't found the hacker?"

So many days have passed, the hacker must have already escaped.

It's simply impossible to catch those people.

The cybersecurity management department also felt wronged, but they were powerless to explain.

In recent months, or even in the past year, their cybersecurity management department has been the busiest department.

To find the counterfeit money ring that was making massive amounts of US dollars, they often worked through the night.

Later, in order to quickly capture those mercenary organizations and destroy their hideouts, their cybersecurity department stepped up its efforts.

As a result, several people couldn't stand the high intensity and hard work and quit.

Even if offered a higher salary, they wouldn't want to continue working there.

They were already exhausted and hadn't had a break at all. At this point, they knew that the network security management of their investigation bureau was gradually getting out of control, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

Who can blame them when the skilled people have already made their escape?

Those who remain are either idiots or mediocre ordinary people.

Anyway, that's the situation, and Brian Ward is certainly well aware of it.

However, given the magnitude of the mess he'd made, he simply wanted to find someone to take the blame and shoulder the responsibility.

The cybersecurity department can't escape responsibility, so there's no point in making excuses.

Ding Ding Ding!
Just then, the phone on my desk rang.

Brian Ward's expression changed drastically, because it was a call from the White House office.

After this incident, George Herbert felt dizzy and almost fainted.

After all, most of the publicly disclosed plans were either authorized by him, George Herbert, or were tasks he personally proposed.

This caused his image to plummet.

If he weren't currently in his second term, it would be impossible for him to run for re-election.

"Hello, Mr. President."

"Haven't you FBI found the hacker yet?"

"We are already working on it, please rest assured, we will definitely bring these lawbreakers to justice."

Brian Ward had given up hope of actually getting the person, but he had to make a boast in front of his superiors so they wouldn't think he was incompetent.

Whether you can do it or not is one thing, whether you have confidence or not is another.

The smile on Brian's face vanished instantly after the call ended.

"Your cybersecurity department should atone for your crimes. I'll give you another 24 hours. If you still haven't caught the person, you can go to a military court and explain to the judge yourselves."

"I resign!"

The supervisor simply gave up; he didn't want to serve him anymore.

"Make amends for your crimes" my ass.

They are currently at their wits' end and do not have any top-notch hackers at their disposal, so how could they possibly catch those people?

The factions that publicly posted missions in the underworld back then directly disclosed the rewards for each mission.

Each one is worth twenty million US dollars.

This amount of money is a huge sum even for top hackers, enough to attract the attention of truly world-class hackers.

Therefore, being able to take on such a task, complete it successfully, and remain undetected by anyone is definitely the mark of a master among masters.

Although these hackers did not break into Facebook and Amazon, that does not diminish their status as top-tier hackers.

After all, Facebook and Amazon are touted as the world's most secure internet companies, and no hacker or hacking group has ever been able to breach their websites.

So, who can catch such a top-notch hacker?
Anyway, as the head of the cybersecurity department of the investigation bureau, he knew that he and his team couldn't handle it.

"What did you say?"

Brian Ward was stunned; he hadn't expected the other person to say he was resigning.

Fake!

Who gave the other person the courage?
"I said I want to resign!"

The supervisor stared at Brian again, enunciating each word clearly:
"I quit. I'm firing you. Do you understand?"

He understood, but Brian Ward became even angrier and stood up abruptly:
"Fuck, you want to resign? Fine, fine, then I'll send you to a military court right now. I hope you'll still be as stubborn as you are today."

"Hmph, I'm not afraid, because you all forced me into this."

In a fit of desperation, the supervisor finally lost his temper. (End of Chapter)
