94 Regret
After waiting for a full 10 minutes, the strange electronic voice did not come again. He Hongyan was disappointed but also relieved at the same time.
He Hongyan picked up the television remote control and tried to turn off the surveillance video that was constantly playing.
But the remote control didn’t work either.
However, that strange electronic voice never came again.
At this moment, He Hongyan’s phone suddenly rang. He nervously took out his phone and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that it was a call from his secretary.
“Qian Wenxin, did that hacker leave just now?” He Hongyan glanced at Qian Wenxin nervously.
“I don’t know.”
“That hacker’s skills were godlike.”
“To be able to surreptitiously control my specially designed computer, this person can easily crush me, at least in terms of online technology and operating systems,” Qian Wenxin said with a bitter smile.
“In the face of such a first-rate hacker, resistance is futile. It’s just like other small companies when faced with us, Baidu.”
“I had thought that the Divine Dragon Software Company’s Li Chengqian was innocent and harmless. I really didn’t expect him to be so formidable.” Although the electronically synthesized voice had never admitted its identity, Qian Wenxin and He Hongyan were no fools.
He had just hacked into the server of Divine Dragon Software Company and downloaded the source code for the Divine Dragon Optimization App, and right after that, he was immediately hacked.
How could there be such a coincidence in this world?
Although there was no proof, the two of them knew very well that there was a 90% chance that this counter-invasion was done by Li Chengqian of the Divine Dragon Software Company.
“Qian Wenxin, you have to take responsibility for what happened today!”
“If you hadn’t left these things behind, we wouldn’t have fallen into such a passive state.”
“It was you who kept these files when they should have been destroyed long ago, and now they have fallen into the hands of the hackers.”
“I demand that you immediately destroy all the previous data!” He Hongyan ended the call with his secretary, and his expression became extremely cold.
“Alright, I’ll do this immediately after the network returns to normal.”
“Right now, the most important thing is to contact the other party as soon as possible and then retrieve the files and destroy them. This is more important than anything else.” Qian Wenxin’s face was pale. In the past, he felt that these documents and chat records were foolproof. They were his ammunition to protect his interests.
Now that the data had been taken away, he realized that these data were indeed ammunition, but they were double-edged swords. If he was not careful, he would lose his life.
Qian Wenxin was completely flustered. He regretted hacking into the server of the Divine Dragon Software Company.
He Hongyan glanced at Qian Wenxin coldly and answered his secretary’s call again.
“President He, something major has happened!” The secretary’s voice was filled with panic.
“What is it?” He Hongyan’s heart skipped a beat as a bad premonition arose in his heart.
“President He, the various departments just reported that they have lost control of the company’s server.”
“Do you think we should call the police immediately?”
When He Hongyan heard the secretary’s report, he knew without thinking that the hacker must have taken away the server rights of Baidu Corporation.
“Why are you panicking?!” He Hongyan felt guilty when he heard the word ‘police’. If he called the police and angered the hackers, he might end up being the one at the police station first.
“I was the one who asked Qian Wenxin to take back control of the company’s server.”
“We’re experimenting with the company’s new technology. Why should you call the police?”
“Alright, I’ll temporarily take back the authority of the company’s server. Let the people from the various departments do what they need to do. When the authority is delegated again, inform them.” He Hongyan’s expression was extremely flustered. He wanted to tear the hacker into pieces, however he had no choice but to cover up for the hacker, for fear of antagonizing him.
“Okay, President He.”
“Actually, there’s one more thing I need to report to you. After we lost control of the server, our webpage, client, and our series of products all recommended a mobile software called the Divine Dragon Optimization App…”
“President He, based on what you said just now, is it also your intention to promote the Divine Dragon Optimization App?”
When He Hongyan heard this, the veins on his face bulged out and his eyes were filled with rage.
He was initially only 90% sure that the hacker was Li Chengqian.
After hearing about this matter, he was 100% sure that the hacker was none other than Li Chengqian of the Divine Dragon Software Company.
“President He? Can you hear me?” The secretary didn’t hear He Hongyan’s response.
“You don’t have to worry about the Divine Dragon Optimization App! I’ll handle it! That’s all!” He Hongyan quickly hung up the phone. His eyes were red and he was fuming.
He Hongyan could tolerate Li Chengqian controlling all the servers in Baidu Corporation.
He couldn’t tolerate Li Chengqian controlling all the platforms of Baidu to promote the Divine Dragon Optimization App!
However, He Hongyan had to endure it!
“This is too much. Li Chengqian is too much!” He Hongyan felt extremely aggrieved and humiliated. “Does he think he can do anything just because he’s ahead in terms of technology?!”
After He Hongyan ranted, his originally coiffed hair became messy, and his crisp white shirt became wrinkled.
He called Qian Wenxin to the corridor, where there were no surveillance cameras or other electronic products. His eyes were steely cold as he made arrangements. “Qian Wenxin, go and find any clues on the server. As long as you can find evidence of Li Chengqian hacking into our company, I won’t pursue the matter of you keeping the chat records. I’ll put that behind us.”
“If you can find evidence on Li Chengqian, we still have a future. If you can’t find evidence, we’re in big trouble this time!” He Hongyan had also thought of calling the police, but if he found no evidence, it was useless to call the police.
Moreover, calling the police would enrage Li Chengqian, the consequences would be… dire!
“Until we find evidence, we can’t tell anyone about Li Chengqian’s invasion.”
“Remember, you took back the authority of the company’s server. I was also the one who arranged for the promotion of the Divine Dragon Optimization App. At the moment, everything is normal in the company. When I’m not in the company, you have to answer anyone who asks you this.” He Hongyan said through gritted teeth. He wished he could murder Li Chengqian, but he had no choice but to cover up for him.
This feeling made him extremely aggrieved.
This was the first time he had felt so aggrieved since he founded Baidu.
“Alright!”
“Hongyan, you’re not staying in the company? Where are you going?” Qian Wenxin asked in confusion. Under such circumstances, the best thing to do was for He Hongyan to stay in the company.
“To Tianyi City, Divine Dragon Software Company!”
“To beg him to let us off! Are you satisfied? Do you understand?!”
“It’s all your fault. If you hadn’t kept the data, this wouldn’t have happened!” He Hongyan’s voice was low as he roared at Qian Wenxin. His tone was especially unpleasant.
His eyes were shooting daggers at Qian Wenxin. The more he thought about it, the more hatred he felt.
If Qian Wenxin hadn’t left anything behind, he would not have been so passive.
“You can’t just blame me for this. You were the one who sent a message saying that Divine Dragon Software was too full of themselves and you wanted me to hack into the Divine Dragon Software Company to obtain the course code of their App!”
“If you hadn’t asked me to hack into Divine Dragon Software, the rest of the horrible events wouldn’t have happened. I can’t be the only one to take all the blame.” Qian Wenxin had been reprimanded all this time, and he was also furious. There was annoyance on his face as he retorted.
He Hongyan’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly. In fact, he was also extremely regretful in his heart. “If I had known earlier, I would have negotiated with Divine Dragon Software Company openly!”
…
“Zhao Na, you said earlier that as long as the number of installations for the Divine Dragon Optimization App hits 10 million in three days, you will agree to whatever I ask you to do?” Li Chengqian cleaned up all traces of the invasion of Baidu and asked Zhao Na with a smile.
Zhao Na had a confident smile on her face. She looked at Li Chengqian charmingly. “Boss, what do you have in mind?”
“But…”
“No matter what you have in mind, you won’t be able to do it.”
“The only thing you can do is to give me a raise.”
