Chapter 533 2234, again!
Listening to the other party's eloquent introduction to how awesome the Kunlun Mirror protection system was, Wang Xing was stunned for a moment and couldn't react.

Afterwards, he was actually a little amused and didn't know what expression was on his face at the moment.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but said nothing. In the end, he just looked at the other person deeply, shook his head, and walked away.

Wang Xing was not comfortable saying it, so Wang Huiwen became his "mouthpiece" and angrily said, "Stop pretending to be sympathetic and cry for mercy. Get out of here!"

We are all friendly companies. The company sent me as a "celestial envoy" with good intentions. I am so sincere that I wear your Meituan uniform. If I wear the Ele.me uniform, will you still ask the security guard to beat me up? Really.
"Even if the deal fails, we still have our friendship, so why bother?" The sales guy said this without stopping his hands. In front of Wang Huiwen, he stuffed the Meituan rider's work clothes into the trash can next to him.

If you don't want it, then don't want it. Why are you scolding him? He is a company executive after all. What kind of quality is that?

The sales guy didn't take it seriously at all. In their line of work, being rejected and ridiculed is commonplace, and he has long been immune to it. And being scolded by Meituan executives is a refreshing feeling. At least it will give him something to brag about to his colleagues when he has dinner.

After leaving the competitor’s sphere of influence, the guy called his superiors to report and then went home.

Just like in movies and TV dramas, whenever things come to an end and are finished, certain characters arrive late.

When they saw that the problem was basically solved, they just made a note, recorded the situation, said they would report it to the relevant departments, and then packed up.

That night, Meituan’s headquarters building was still brightly lit.

Based on the documents left by the Alibaba team, the technical team worked overtime to reinforce the security protection system that had been penetrated like sand.

Wang Xing thought about it and decided to call Ma to express his gratitude.

Anyway, the "reward" had already been spent, and in order to maximize profits, and based on Mu Rongjun's suggestion, it was agreed that Meituan would subsequently connect to the Alibaba Cloud Shield network security defense system to avoid repeating the same mistakes.

Meituan can no longer withstand a second such shock.

Late at night, there were still no stars in the sky above the capital.

Wang Xing lay in bed. He was obviously exhausted both physically and mentally, but he still couldn't fall asleep.

The more he thought about the incident with Meituan, the more bizarre it seemed, and he was completely baffled.
Perhaps the night brought him more inspiration. Suddenly, he thought of a possibility, and then he felt cold all over, thinking about it carefully and feeling terrified.
Whether it is myself or others, 99% of them believe that this incident was done by Ele.me or Bi'an.

Although there is no evidence, it seems that the biggest beneficiary is indeed the other side. However, the truth that is easiest to guess is often not necessarily the final truth.

Otherwise, how come the other party suddenly retreated after the police were called? Was there a mole in the company? Or was Lao Wang's phone tapped? Or was the other party so powerful that they could get the data from telecom operators like China Mobile and China Unicom?

This is a bit too unbelievable. With such power, why use network attacks? Wouldn't it be better to just send a 404 attack? It's not like it hasn't happened before!

Wang Xing scratched his head, feeling a little itchy.

He thought about it for a while, and another possibility gradually became clear. Besides Ele.me and Bi'an, who else could it be?
Then he really thought of a potential beneficiary, that is Ali who came to support today.
In fact, the information he received was that the Alibaba team flew directly to Beijing last night, but after arriving, they did not go directly to Meituan for support. Instead, they stayed in the hotel for one night and reported for duty this morning.

If support had been provided earlier last night, would the result have been much better? He didn't know.

In addition, it seemed that Alibaba's group had suffered a defeat today, but did the other side try their best? Was it because they could not solve the problem, or did they not want to solve it? He didn't know.

But what he knew was that he had decided to call the police, and only the people in the room - Mu Rongjun, Lao Wang and Ali - knew about it.

Just after I called the police, the other party automatically retreated? Could it be such a coincidence?
If you think about it this way, everything seems to make sense.

This time, Meituan's market size suffered a setback, which opened a gap for Alibaba to take a seat, and his voice in the company was weakened to a certain extent.

Ma is a very cunning person. When he first invested in Meituan, he made a good speech, invested money, and sent a general of Gan Jiawei's level. Now not only has Alibaba's share in Meituan been rising steadily, but it has also occupied a seat on the board of directors.

It has only been a year. In the next two or three years, will Meituan be named Ma or Wang? He has no idea.

Thinking of this, Wang Xing was very worried, but no matter what, the silver lining is that Meituan has now returned to normal.

However, the situation that Meituan faces is more severe than before. Not only does it have to deal with enemies in the market, but it also needs to spend a certain amount of energy internally.
Wang Xing, who was brainstorming in his mind, stared blankly at the ceiling, letting time slip away.
At the same time, also in bed.

There was another person tossing and turning in sleep.

He was Cheng Wei, who returned to the hotel suite to sleep in the early hours of the morning.

After Didi’s server almost collapsed on Monday this week, he and Zhang Bo brought a team of more than 20 technical experts from Didi and went directly to Tencent headquarters to seek support, and they would not leave until the problem was resolved.

Seeing this, Pony Ma couldn't just kick people out, so he personally made some remote arrangements in Hong Kong and coordinated Tencent's technical team to provide assistance.

In the following period, Didi's technical team stayed in the Tencent building and did not go downstairs for six days and five nights.

For meals, Tencent has a cafeteria, and for sleep, you can just find a lounge nearby to lie down.

Such efforts will be rewarded.

On the third day, the stability of Didi's software improved visibly and could support smooth operation at the current level.

At the same time, after these days of refinement, Didi's technologies have obviously improved.

While working, Cheng Wei did not forget to look up at his competitors and found that Kuaidi Taxi was also back to normal. He then communicated with Chen Weixing and aligned the granularity. He found that the other party had the same idea and went to Alibaba for support.
In fact, on the fourth day, if Didi was running normally, they could have gone home, but before they left, they saw online that something had happened to Meituan.
For some reason, Cheng Wei's heart skipped a beat at that moment, and he quickly held an internal emergency meeting to analyze the situation.

Who is Meituan's rival? Ele.me. Who is behind the two companies? Alibaba and Bian.

Who is Didi's opponent? It's taxi ride. Then who is behind taxi ride?

Will this moment become that moment?

It would have been better if the Didi people didn't analyze it. After the analysis, they all took a breath of the cold air blown out by Tencent's air conditioner.

Cheng Wei called Pony Ma again and persuaded him to stay in Tencent for another three days. This time, the support came from Tencent Xuanwu Lab, which integrated Didi's core system into Tencent Cloud's security network protection system from top to bottom and from inside to outside.

It is equivalent to adding a layer of defensive shell called Xuanwu on the outer layer of the Didi system.

On Sunday, which is today, around 3:00 p.m., Cheng Wei learned that Meituan’s service had actually been shut down.

At this moment, he was lying on the big bed in the hotel, secretly congratulating himself for having made preparations in advance.

You know, in terms of overall technical strength, Didi, which has just been established for more than a year, can in no way compare with Meituan, which has fought its way out of the battle of thousands of groups and is still standing.

As a result, the "God of War" collapsed today and was out of service for three hours, reportedly due to an unknown cyber attack.
What does it mean that a software that is commonly used by the public is out of service for three hours during peak hours? It is not an exaggeration to say that it is like reporting to the King of Hell.

Although Cheng Wei does not know what Meituan’s specific user churn rate is, it is a question whether it can recover the market size it had two days ago, let alone compete with Ele.me in the future.

Taking history as a mirror, although the "history" of Meituan has just been released, it is also worth learning from.

It's a pity that Meituan didn't know how to use the power of "Dad". He used to think Wang Xing was a big shot, but he didn't expect that he was also a idiot. Unlike him, he knew how to use the power of Tencent to build Didi into a solid company. Although Didi gave back some of the money it had just raised from Tencent, he felt that it was worth it.

What is face? Survival is the only way!
Starting next week, Didi will be able to compete head-on with taxis in the market. Didi has already thought of a price war plan, which will give taxis a hard time.
Cheng Wei finally fell asleep while thinking about all sorts of things.
Cheng Wei slept well until dawn and was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone.

In a daze, he first checked the time on his phone and found that it was already past 9 a.m.
The call was connected. "Hello, Mr. Cheng, the server has crashed."

1+2+5=8, these eight short words were like eight bolts of lightning falling from the sky, blasting Cheng Wei to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Cheng Wei stood up immediately. Perhaps he stood up too quickly, he felt his body shaking and his eyes went dark.

I spent so much money, brought so many people, worked day and night to build the embankment, and finally finished it, and now you tell me it collapsed?

Who the hell would believe that?
After a few seconds, he regained his composure and immediately opened his own app on his phone. He looked at the circle spinning, as if it was spinning to the end of the world. He had to face this cruel reality.
Cheng Wei felt like the sky had collapsed on him!
"Give me 10 minutes, I'll come to the office right away!" Cheng Wei put on his clothes hastily, looked at the Tencent building opposite, and wished there was an aerial cable running straight to the opposite side outside the window.
Five minutes later, Cheng Wei came to their office area, panting. "What happened? How did it collapse? Didn't we reinforce it?"

Zhang Bo's team and some Tencent technicians are busy
This day seemed like history repeating itself, except that the protagonist had changed.

On May 5, around 19 a.m., Didi Taxi started to lag;
At around 9 o'clock, the main functions were unresponsive;

Nearing 10 o'clock, within less than 2 hours, the reinforced Didi Taxi system collapsed.

Subsequently, Didi also posted an “upgrade and maintenance notice” that all netizens could recite.

Didi Chuxing’s suspension of service was even longer than Meituan’s, lasting a full 6 hours, and was not restored until around 2 p.m.

In a corner of a floor of the Tencent Building, Cheng Wei had a dazed look on his face, and everyone in the Didi technical team looked like they had been swept by a storm.

Members of Tencent's network security team were not much better. Although they did not show it on the surface, they had some underlying sense of superiority over Didi in their hearts.

But now, they also look frightened. From the time they started working until now, they have never experienced such a violent cyber attack.

The reason they were able to recover this time was not because they beat the other party back, but because they vaguely felt that the other party was a little bored and felt that there was no challenge, so they took the initiative to leave.
With a wave of his sleeves, he did not take away any code, but took away countless Didi users.
Qingteng College is located in Beijing, more than 2,000 kilometers away from Shenzhen.

"Yes, I understand."

"toot toot"

Hearing his boss hang up the phone, Xu Chaojun put down his phone and swept his eyes across the tired but shining faces in the conference room.

Each of these people is one of the top network security experts in the group - no, they can be called the world's top network security experts. After all, many of them have experienced the 24-hour joint bombardment in the previous Kunlun Mirror World Hacking Competition.

It's just that this time they turned from defense to offense without any hesitation.

Xu Chaojun looked at them and felt a deep sense of pride in his heart.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and the arc became larger and larger: "The big boss said that this operation has achieved great success and victory, and has provided a strong boost for the group's rapid development in the food delivery and online car-hailing markets. You should take the lead!"

"Oh——" Someone in the audience couldn't help but cheer.

Xu Chaojun pointed at the guy and said with a smile: "I know you are anxious, but listen to me first."

Others cheered and teased.

He paused, his tone becoming serious: "Due to the special nature of this operation, there may not be any commendation or even records left. Even a lot of data was destroyed by us just now, and the only thing we have left is the 'juicer module' in our hands that will be incorporated into the group's Kunlun Mirror security system. Do you regret it?"

"No regrets!" The crowd responded in unison, their voices firm and powerful.

For them, having the opportunity to compete against top domestic opponents is a pursuit in itself.

They had a lot of fun and enjoyed themselves this time, so how could they regret it?
Fame is not important to them because they know they are doing something meaningful.

What is the other side doing? What does the big boss want to do? As people from the other side, they know very well that anyone who stands against the other side is a reactionary.

On the podium, Xu Chaojun looked around, his eyes lingering on every face, as if he wanted to engrave these comrades who fought side by side with him in his heart.

With colleagues like you, what more could you ask for?
He tried to control his emotions, but the slight tremor in his voice still revealed his inner excitement: "This operation is over, and you will return to your respective departments. This month will be an unforgettable experience for me, and I am proud to have such excellent colleagues like you.

Finally, everything is for the other shore!"

"Everything for the other shore!"
