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

"Boss, come here, let's have a chat."

At Harbin Institute of Technology in the Ice City, next to the island in the middle of the lake, Wang Duoyu called over his eldest son to his fishing spot, and the father and son sat together, fishing and chatting.

How's your research project at school going? Is it challenging?

Wang Junhong felt very warm inside from his father's proactive care, and he thoroughly enjoyed this kind of fatherly love.

After returning from Berlin, he became the youngest mathematics professor at Harbin Institute of Technology and was famous throughout the country.

Last year, he even went to give speeches at Tsinghua University, Peking University, Fudan University, Nanjing University, Sun Yat-sen University and other domestic universities, but he himself is fine and has not been indulging in his past glory.

He only went away for a month before returning to Harbin Institute of Technology to focus on his studies.

Given his academic standing, he naturally doesn't need to worry about anyone causing him trouble, but with greater fame comes temptations of one kind or another.

Even with his father in charge, he still has to experience these things himself; his father can't always shield him from the storm.

He needs to grow up on his own.

The first half of the year has passed, and Wang Junhong has completed several projects. However, with the new school year approaching, he needs to teach some basic courses, and he will even be supervising graduate students starting next year.

Of course, it all depends on his own wishes.

In any case, doing mathematical research depends more on talent than anything else.

After exchanging a few words with his father, he took the initiative to ask:
"Dad, is there anything I can help you with?"

"As expected of my son, I have indeed encountered a little difficulty recently. I hope you can come and take a look. If you are interested, I will entrust this job to you. How about it?"

"Dad, what kind of job is it? Will it be too difficult? What if I can't finish it, wouldn't that interfere with your plans?"

Wang Junhong immediately became serious.

Because he knew very well that if even his father was helpless with a small problem, then it was definitely not a small problem. With his small arms and legs, he might not be able to shoulder this responsibility.

"Don't be nervous!" Wang Duoyu immediately patted his son's shoulder with a smile.

"It's about encryption algorithms; let me explain in detail."

Upon hearing that the question concerned encryption algorithms, Wang Junhong's eyes lit up immediately; this was his forte.

Well, that's also his father's forte. But no matter what, he's a mathematics professor and a renowned figure in the global mathematics community.

After chatting for a while, Wang Duoyu finally passed the task on to his son.

He also prepared a gift for Wang Junhong: a Dawning supercomputer.

Although Wang Junhong's mathematical abilities mean he doesn't actually need a supercomputer, having such a tool would naturally make his work much easier.

Over the next few days, Wang Duoyu tutored his eldest son, helping him to adapt to his 'new job' more quickly.

Once he had a firm grasp of the task, Wang Duoyu handed over the work of encryption algorithms and decryption entirely to him.

That night, lying in bed, he remarked to Liu Xiaoli:

"Xiaoli, our eldest son has grown up and can help me now."

How did he help you?

Liu Xiaoli raised an eyebrow and asked.

She was sitting in front of her dressing table, slowly massaging her face.

She's forty years old this year, not young anymore, but she's very well-maintained. Her face looks like she's only twenty-three or twenty-five. Saying she and Wang Yifei are sisters is no exaggeration.

Besides her own consistent self-care, it also has a lot to do with her mood and daily routine.

Although she and Wang Duoyu had a few arguments in the past six months over the sake of having a child, they were just bickering and never actually got into a serious fight.

Because she knew that Wang Duoyu was doing it all for her own good, but she herself didn't take good care of her body.

"I've been having some trouble at work lately, so I delegated some of the tasks to him, and I must say he picked it up pretty quickly."

Wang Duoyu said with a smile, his eyes full of pride. Liu Xiaoli, seeing this, snorted:

"You only focus on the eldest brother, can't you see how outstanding the second and third brothers are?"

"You know what, the second son is also excellent, but his excellence lies in finance. Do you think our family is short of money right now? Some problems can't be solved with money."

Problems that can be solved with money are minor issues.

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoli stopped massaging him and glared at him angrily.
"Is your only concern the eldest child? If so, then go have a baby with that vixen. But that vixen is already forty-seven years old this year, I reckon she's probably menopausal, so she most likely can't have children."

The following words were quite gloating, and Liu Xiaoli herself laughed as she spoke.

She was referring to Zhu Ling. It was all because Wang Duoyu only knew how to keep praising Wang Junhong. Even though she treated Wang Junhong like her own child, he was still not her biological son.

Therefore, she would occasionally get jealous when she was alone with Wang Duoyu.

Wang Duoyu was both amused and exasperated; a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea!

What's the matter?

All she did was praise her eldest son a few times, and Liu Xiaoli got jealous again.

He didn't argue with Liu Xiaoli, but instead changed the subject. However, Liu Xiaoli steered the conversation back to having children.

"Look, I'm still young and can have children. I'm sure I'll be able to give birth to a child who's even more talented than our eldest, and that child will be able to help you too."

Looking at Liu Xiaoli's confident expression, Wang Duoyu remained silent.

Logically speaking, Liu Xiaoli shouldn't have such a competitive mentality, after all, she has completely surpassed Zhu Ling in every aspect.

But at this moment, Wang Duoyu had no idea what the other person was really thinking.

Can't we just live a peaceful and stable life?

Is it really that hard to suppress the irritability that comes with menopause?
"Liu Xiaoli, I think you're just bored. Go to sleep, are you going to sleep or not?" Wang Duoyu rolled his eyes at her in annoyance.

Liu Xiaoli, however, said:
"Of course I'll sleep with you, but you have to 'pay your dues' before I go to sleep, these are my ovulation periods."

Wang Duoyu lay down and closed his eyes, saying, "Go ahead."

"Wang Duoyu!!!"

The next day, after having breakfast, Wang Duoyu went to the study of the villa, sat down, and first looked at the briefing.

Today, Want Want Group's business spans the globe, including tourism and fishing operations even in Antarctica, not to mention its presence on other continents.

The fishing business in Antarctica is related to the fact that Wang Duoyu ate Antarctic toothfish there when he went to Antarctica before.

This fish is indeed very delicious; after all, the more high-end the ingredient, the simpler and more direct the cooking method.

Wang Duoyu was naturally unwilling to give up such delicious food. Every year during the Southern Hemisphere summer, he would catch more toothfish and bring them back. Whether he ate them himself or put them on the shelves for sale, they were a very good choice.

Want Want Group owns retail groups such as Walmart and Target, so selling these high-end products would not be a problem at all.

The group's business is so large that many less important briefings never appear on Wang Duoyu's desk.

Of course, this doesn't mean he won't pay attention.

In addition to briefings, there are detailed reports and multiple communication channels to ensure that Wang Duoyu is not misled by his subordinates.

The daily briefings only highlighted the important points, and Wang Duoyu would basically just glance at them and ignore them.

These briefings are handled by senior executives like Zheng Baoyin; Wang Duoyu doesn't really manage the day-to-day operations.

He doesn't even care much about the overall development plans anymore, only mentioning them occasionally at senior management meetings or year-end summary meetings.

After a quick look, Wang Duoyu confirmed that there were no other major events at Want Want Group recently, and then turned his attention to the Super Dollar Factory.

He has handed over the task of deciphering asymmetric encryption algorithms to his eldest son, Wang Junhong.

But passively taking a beating like this wasn't in Wang Duoyu's nature. So now that he had a free hand, he planned to fight back.

After thinking for a moment, he picked up the phone and called Martinez.

"Martin, how's the progress at your super dollar factory? Are you able to get things moving smoothly and obtain the relevant intelligence?"

"Professor, we've already started the operation. If nothing unexpected happens, we should have results in the next few days."

Wang Duoyu heard this and said:

"Then keep a close eye on things, and make sure that the intelligence you obtain is true and reliable. Don't let anyone fool you with false information."

His reminder to the other party was not unfounded.

Rather, it's because the CIA has undergone a complete reshuffle, and obtaining genuine intelligence would inevitably require paying a higher price. However, everyone has different stances, and if there really is a double agent, then it would be a huge problem.

The dangers of working on the covert front have been vividly demonstrated in previous wars, such as World War II and the Cold War, and need no further elaboration.

Among the current management of the CIA, the one most easily and most likely to be bribed by the Want Want Group is the head of the intelligence department, Herodotus Murphy.

The Murphy family, to which this person belongs, was founded by Italian Americans. The family was a pirate family a century ago. After crossing the ocean to the Americas, they first settled down here by buying farms.

It gradually developed over time, but currently it is just an ordinary family with little influence in the United States.

Herodotus Murphy is currently the most powerful member of the family politically.

It's fair to say that the Murphy family has been financially drained in order to secure this powerful position.

As long as a super-powerful dollar factory extends an olive branch, there's no need to worry about the other party not accepting.

However, Wang Duoyu obviously wouldn't easily believe what this Italian-American said. The sources of intelligence had to be cross-referenced and compared to fully verify them.

Otherwise, obtaining false information would be extremely fatal to the super-dollar factory.

Martinez, of course, understood this as well, and said with a serious expression that he would keep a close eye on the matter.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Duoyu immediately started typing on the keyboard, looking for something to do for the CIA.

They're busy producing so much high-level encrypted intelligence to confuse the public, right? No problem, it's only fair to reciprocate. Wang Duoyu will give them something nice in return.

Shortly afterward, alarms sounded at the CIA headquarters building.

The prelude has begun, so now the real show is about to start.

The CIA no longer uses the internet much for data storage. Even when they do, they cut off external networks and only use internal local area networks.

However, this so-called local area network was quickly breached by Wang Duoyu, and the relevant data was soon copied by him.

Outside the immediate community, a large amount of classified information about the CIA quickly appeared on forums of numerous internet companies worldwide.

These classified documents are highly confidential, and several of them are even from this year.

Some plans related to the Kosovo War have also surfaced. Although there aren't many, the emergence of these documents has completely unsettled the entire United States.

so horrible!

Within just a few hours, on North American internet platforms, many netizens rushed to save this information.

Just a few months after the Kosovo War, the 'Ghost' hackers have once again mysteriously leaked data.

Netizens eagerly followed the story, sending private messages to the forum accounts that posted the information, and leaving countless comments.

Many netizens even spontaneously edit their blog posts on forums or other platforms to create new articles in order to attract more attention, all in pursuit of higher traffic.

Washington, D.C., CIA headquarters building, inside the director's office.

Upon hearing this, Bennett Ortega's expression changed drastically, his brows furrowing so deeply they could have crushed a fly.

He immediately summoned Burton Byron, Herodotus Murphy, Domenikolov, and others to his office for a meeting.

"Gentlemen, the enemy's counterattack has already begun. We haven't even sorted out the situation of the counterfeit money group, and they're already launching a counterattack. This shows that our previous intelligence-confusing strategy was effective, and it can even be said that we've hit their weak point."

"So what should we do next? Let's all discuss it!"

At the very beginning of the meeting, Bennett immediately raised a question and set the tone.

The previous directors of the CIA must have been incompetent; otherwise, how could they have been led by the nose by counterfeit money cartels?

Now that they've undergone a major reshuffle, their intelligence-confusing strategy has proven effective, throwing the counterfeit money group into disarray. This is good news for Bennett and his newly appointed leaders.

But the reappearance of the 'Ghost' hacker poses a formidable threat, and finding this hacker requires careful planning.

Operations chief Domenicolov had just proposed a long-term plan when it was rejected by another bigwig, Dallas Nicholson.

Dallas Nicholson is the Federal Reserve's special envoy, replacing Roland Morgan.

Unlike Roland Morgan, Dallas Nicholson held real power within the CIA, serving as a CIA advisor.

"God, Domenico, you stupid pig, what kind of long-term planning is this? You should go see Caesar!"

"The Ghost has opened up the situation, disrupted our intelligence obfuscation strategy, and created a huge uproar on the internet. Our CIA will inevitably be affected."

"So at this point, what we must do is confront it head-on and remove this thorn in our side!"

Dallas's suggestion is excellent, but how do we implement it?

Herodotus Murphy frowned and said:
"Our bureau had already assigned many hackers to find Ghost, but..."

Bert Edward and his eighteen other top hackers were all captured by Ghost and their whereabouts are currently unknown.

So, let's not even talk about whether the CIA can find such a hacker team again. Even if they could, would they be able to deal with this ghost hacker?
"You're boosting the morale of others while diminishing your own!"

Dallas Nicholson was so angry that he started cursing:

"Herodotus, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You Italians have always been cowards, afraid of this and afraid of that."

"Then who do you suggest we get to deal with the Ghost Hacker?" Herodotus Murphy retorted without hesitation.
"If you can point it out, I'll go find someone!"

"Are we Americans all gone? Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, these are all companies from our country, aren't they? Can't we contact them?"

Herodotus Murphy's expression changed drastically in an instant:
"What the hell!"

"Dallas, you're rich, but do you really think you can get them to work? Hah, those capitalists are ruthless; I don't believe you can."

Snapped!
Before Dallas could speak, Bennett Ortega suddenly slammed his hand on the table, and after a loud bang, the office fell silent.

Bennett glared angrily at the people in front of him, his eyes wide.

"That's enough, all of you stop arguing. If you want to give your opinions, just give them. What's the point of arguing? Do you think this is a vegetable market?"

“Dallas, since you’ve come out to find companies like Microsoft, then this matter will be entrusted to you.”

Dallas Nicholson's expression changed drastically, and he was about to refuse.

Who doesn't know that the real power behind companies like Microsoft is held by those financial giants?

This time, we're dealing with 'Ghost,' one of the world's top and most ruthless hackers. He's been causing trouble on the internet for years without ever having an accident.

Even though companies like Microsoft have many software engineers, no one can guarantee that they will catch the Ghost hacker.

Moreover, these companies dare not take action, otherwise, if they fail to catch the ghost and instead get themselves into trouble, they will be in big trouble.

After all, if Ghost wanted to destroy companies like Microsoft, Apple, and Facebook, it would be an absolutely devastating event.

Therefore, no one dared to make any rash moves.

Even if he gets through this hurdle, the capitalists behind him won't be so easy to convince, since Dallas has the Federal Reserve standing behind him.

Since it's the Federal Reserve, it means it has money.

"Bennett, I..." (End of Chapter)
