The world is in trouble

Chapter 27 Beautiful Attack! Fighting the Poison Tyrant

The train is really slow at this time!

Lin Xiao's butt was almost stiff from sitting so hard. Even though it was a T-series train, it took more than ten hours.

I really miss the high-speed rail a dozen years later.

And anyone who has sat in a car for a long time knows that the most uncomfortable thing may not be the sore waist, but the stuffy buttocks.

There were so many people around that I felt embarrassed to even fart, so I had to hold it in.

After sitting for more than ten hours, my stomach was bloated.

The next morning, Lin Xiao appeared at Beijing West Railway Station with a tired face.

The West Station is so big.

The sky in the capital is gray.

Smog, dust, sandstorms...

But never mind, it was a long-lost metropolis, especially the Guomao District on the Third Ring Road, which looked particularly grand even in 2001.

It's even more bustling here than Hangzhou, with a constant stream of traffic and the air filled with a pungent smell of exhaust.

The first place Lin Xiao made an appointment with was Jinshan because it was the largest.

But the appointment is at three o'clock in the afternoon, so there is still some time.

Relying on his memory, Lin Xiao first went to a residential area and a building on Zhichun Road.

This was Xia Xi's first house. More than a decade later, even though Xia Xi's net worth had become very high and she had villas and large apartments in Shanghai and Beijing, she still lived in this small house of 140 square meters on Zhichun Road most of the time.

Lin Xiao didn’t know the reason, maybe it was... sentimentality.

Lin Xiao had been to this house once before, and he gave Xia Xi a gift to thank her.

I sent it eleven times, but the other party’s answer was always no need.

It was not until the twelfth time that Lin Xiao said that what he sent was pickled mustard greens, which his mother made and dried herself.

Xia Xi then gave the address, which was on Zhichun Road.

Lin Xiao was very surprised at that time. You are so wealthy, but you live in such a small house?
However, Lin Xiao didn't know if Xia Xi lived here at this time? He didn't even know if this house belonged to Xia Xi. He just came here to try his luck.

I followed a resident through the security door with an electronic lock, came to the door of 301, and knocked gently.

After knocking for a long time, there was no response from inside. When Lin Xiao was about to give up, he suddenly heard lazy footsteps and then the security door was opened.

The decoration inside the house is very luxurious!
But, it's also messy.

Out walked a very... very abstract woman.

He was wearing pajamas, with disheveled hair, sleepy eyes, a depressed look, red eyes and chapped lips.

But...her appearance is still amazingly high.

Even with this appearance, it is still beautiful and aggressive.

Xia Xi swore in her heart that if it wasn't an important matter, she would have wanted to kill the person knocking on the door.

After the failure of this business venture, she suffered from insomnia day and night.

I finally fell asleep after taking sleeping pills, but less than an hour later, I was woken up by a knock on the door.

God damn, who is this?
"Speak!" The word came out of the woman's mouth, and she looked like she would close the door at any time.

Lin Xiao said: "I heard that your business failed and you lost tens of millions. I want to help you make a comeback."

After the woman listened.

"Bang!" He closed the door directly.

Neuropathy!
You look like a middle school student, not even as tall as me when you stand up, but you want to help me make a comeback.

Lin Xiao said through the door: "Do you know why you failed in this business venture?"

"Failure is caused by your high standards, your arrogance, and your only focus on the most glittering project instead of looking at the road under your feet..."

However, there was no response from inside, and Xia Xi had already returned to her room to sleep.

She had to continue sleeping while she was still sleepy, otherwise once the sleepiness was over, who knew when it would come back again.

As for why entrepreneurship fails?
She knew it very clearly in her heart and didn't need anyone to tell her.

She only knew that she had lost all her belongings and was even in debt, with only this house left, and she had also overdrawn the trust line given by her family.

Many newspapers are now publishing news about her failed business, sarcastically calling her the new generation of Shang Zhongyong.

The woman curled up with a heart full of sadness.

"Mom!" she cried silently, "I can't sleep, I can't sleep, can you help me fall asleep?"

Unfortunately, her mother could no longer respond to her, and she was all alone. Although she had a family, it was worse than having no family.

This was her most desperate moment. She had always been a favored girl and never expected help from others.

But at this moment, she couldn't help but think, how nice it would be if someone could lend me a hand at this moment?

In the future, when I become strong again, if I meet another desperate person.

I will definitely lend a helping hand.

........................

Lin Xiao left Xia Xi's home and had to look for another opportunity.

I have an appointment with Director Li of Kingsoft Antivirus at three o'clock in the afternoon, and I need to be in a good mental state.

This was his first pot of gold and also his first battle.

So Lin Xiao found a hotel to sleep in and recuperate.

In order to avoid being woken up by phone calls sent to his door, he even unplugged the phone line.

After sleeping for about five hours, he got up, washed, showered, changed his clothes, and walked towards a coffee shop in Zhongguancun with his computer on his back.

………………at the same time!

Xia Xi was also taking a shower and changing clothes.

No make-up, just a hint of lipstick.

However, any clothes she wore were very expensive.

Today she chose a Burberry trench coat, which is more neutral.

Senior Li Xiaoqin knew that she was in a bad mood, and said that there was a meeting today that might be interesting, so she asked her to go with her.

Xia Xi didn't want to go, but she couldn't stand the calls from the other party one after another.

So after a quick tidying up, I took a taxi out.

………………

They agreed to meet at three o'clock, and Lin Xiao was waiting in the cafe at two-fifteen.

And ordered a cup of coffee.

At about a quarter to two, two women came in.

A person who originally looked good, but now looks dull and lifeless.

Because, another amazing beauty.

Where in life do we not meet?
It turned out to be Xia Xi, what a coincidence.

When Li Xiaoqin saw Lin Xiao, he was very surprised and thought that the other party might have sat in the wrong seat.

But, the clothes he was wearing were exactly the same as those in the phone call.

"You, you are Mr. Lin?"

Lin Xiao stood up and said, "Yes, I am Mr. Lin, and you are Director Li of Duba?"

"It's me." Li Xiaoqin said, "I didn't expect... you, to be so young?"

Lin Xiao said: "I didn't expect that my email would be replied so quickly."

Li Xiaoqin said: "We are still very humble and perceptive."

The antivirus software market at this time was very competitive, and these companies did not suffer from big company disease.

But after meeting Lin Xiao, Li Xiaoqin felt that his trip was in vain.

This was not the first time she had negotiated this kind of business, but the people involved were basically typical science and engineering men, at least in their twenties.

The person in front of me looks like a high school student.

Of course, there are computer experts among high school students, but they are more common in many legendary stories, and most of them are Americans.

Most high school students in China have immature faces and clear but stupid eyes.

Li Xiaoqin said: "I heard that you found a virus."

Lin Xiao said: "Yes, the power is amazing. I am worried that it will have a bad impact on our network security, so I came to hand it over to your company and discuss countermeasures with you to maintain our network security environment."

Li Xiaoqin asked: "I wonder what your expectations are for this virus you picked up?"

Lin Xiao said: "My friend and I joked that it is worth a house in the county town."

Li Xiaoqin said: "You are really joking."

For computer experts who create viruses, the price of antivirus software is basically a recruiting offer, and tens of thousands of yuan is already very high.

Lin Xiao said: "Are you kidding? Please read it before making a decision. Do you...know computers?"

Li Xiaoqin said: "I know a little bit, but I brought a technical expert, Engineer Cheng!"

A man with glasses at the back stood up.

Lin Xiao was stunned. Huh? Have you been here all along? Why didn't I see you? Do you know how to become invisible?

Xia Xi's light was so bright that it blinded the people around her.

Even though she was a little depressed now, she was just holding a cup of coffee and staring blankly.

Some women will be incredibly beautiful even if they pick their noses.

Of course, she didn't recognize Lin Xiao at all.

Lin Xiao asked: "Did you bring a computer?"

The man with glasses said, "I have it, and it has all the mainstream anti-virus software and firewalls. It's as solid as a rock."

Then he extended his hand towards Lin Xiao, and seemed very familiar with the process.

Lin Xiao handed over the USB drive.

The virus here is a slightly different version. The one tested on Lian Yi’s computer before needed to be clicked before it would run.

This version does not need to be opened, it will be infected as soon as it is inserted.

"Panda Burning Incense, what an interesting name!"

The man with glasses said it lightly, full of disdain in his heart.

The computer is his weapon. When he is without his computer, he becomes listless and as if he is nothing. If there are more than three people around him, they cannot detect his existence.

Once he had the computer in his hand, he felt as if he had a sword in his hand, full of fighting spirit and murderous intent.

Looking at the extremely young Lin Xiao, his eyes seemed to say: At such a young age, you dare to show off your skills in front of an expert.

Is it because you have read too many hacker stories and think that anyone can write viruses or Trojans?
With a smile on his face, the man with glasses inserted the USB drive into his computer.
