Bit Mania [Hacking]

"You really didn't die..."

"Shut up!" The young man's voice came out clearly from the surround sound: "I should tell you this, what do you mean by running away without saying a word, I will settle accounts with you later..."

In the corner of the venue, a somewhat handsome Germanic uncle opened his mouth wide, listening to the conversation between the two people who were thousands of miles away, and after a long time, he remembered to ask the side: "Israel looks like this... By the way, Octo and Isn't Israel a very good relationship, why did they quarrel..."

The respondent didn't know whether it was because he was calm or not in good health. Even though the venue was full of chaos, he still sat there peacefully, and when he heard the uncle's question, he answered slowly: "Well... The little guy is just quarreling, they can't really quarrel."

"So you said you ran away from home..." The uncle held his forehead haggardly: "As expected of those two ancestors, everything they do is earth-shattering..."

Over there, God O gave a lesson to the I University who ran away from home, and then brought the topic back.

"Mr. Bruch, may I ask, according to what you said just now, in order to win the Fields Medal, besides your own outstanding mathematics level, you also need to show achievements?"

"……Yes."

"Then today I'm here to prove to Israel that his achievements as a mathematician are absolutely no worse than anyone present here." Although the voice was soft, the tone was surprisingly firm, and there was a hint of pride that could not be concealed : "Linux computer operating system, I think you must be familiar with it. It has been seven years since it was released in 1. It is used for embedded development and servers. With its unparalleled security and stability, it is used in aviation, banking, securities It is well-deserved No.[-] and the only one in the fields of taxation, telecommunications, and postal services that have extremely high security requirements. There are tens of millions of large institutions around the world, except for a few that customize their R&D systems for special needs. Everything else is our system, and no system can replace it, not even Windows."

"But, when you use it a lot every day, have you ever thought about who built the mathematical model of this system?" The person at the other end of the speaker asked: "You only know an organization called the Linux Foundation , but I don’t know that the founders of this organization back then, who invented the Linux system kernel from scratch, there were only three people—Linux and I must be familiar with each other, and there is another one, who I want to let people all over the world know today—— He is Israel!"

"...No, it's impossible!" Someone shouted: "How huge is the mathematical model of the operating system! How could it be constructed by only one person? How meticulous logical thinking does this require?!"

"But he did it." The voice calling itself Octo said, "Not only that, he has been by my side all these years, helping me in my most difficult moments, behind hundreds of online battles, large and small. The shadow of I, the reason why not many people know about him is that Isr himself deliberately kept a low profile, in order to lighten his own sense of existence, so as not to cause trouble for me."

"Without him, I might have been arrested long ago, or I might have died in an unknown corner long ago, or I might have gone crazy because of years of lonely wandering. It can be said that without Israel's silent dedication, there would be no Octo today. !"

"Thank you, Xiu." After taking a deep breath, Zixin said what he wanted to say to Zheng Xiu the most over the years, but he still couldn't suppress the restlessness in his heart: "Thank you...Israel. Octo created a miracle , and you, a miracle, made Octo."

Hua Guojing University, in the multimedia room of the School of Computing, all the professors were watching the live broadcast of the conference on the projector, discussing a few words from time to time, or taking some notes, when suddenly there was a sound of a pen falling to the ground, everyone followed the reputation, but saw a certain The professor stared blankly at the screen, motionless, as if completely unaware that the pen in his hand had been dropped.

"Professor Yao, Professor Yao, what's the matter with you?"

"...Eh?" Yao Yizhi came back to his senses and smiled apologetically: "I'm fine."

"Why hasn't the police come to arrest that person yet?!" Bruch growled to his assistant, "I saw someone sneak out and call the police, and it's live broadcast now, so many reporters are here, the police should have got the news long ago Already!"

"You're still counting on the police." Zheng Xiu stood on a high platform, looking down at the crowd below: "Indeed, I'm standing here now, it's easy to arrest me, but think about it with your barren heads, If you embarrass me in front of the world's number one hacker, what kind of revenge will you suffer?"

"Cough," Octo coughed lightly, "Actually, I am a good citizen who loves world peace... As long as you are obedient, I promise not to do evil things like cutting off submarine optical cables and paralyzing network communications in some areas." ..."

"...Gudong." Bruch swallowed.

"You are committing a crime!" Soros, the vice-chairman of the Union of Mathematicians, searched for a target for a long time, and finally could only curse angrily at the air in the ceiling: "You vicious thugs! Criminals! Terrorists!"

"For the sake of Isr, I don't mind being a terrorist." The voice on the other end of the speaker said, "And I believe that you are all smart people and will not give me this opportunity to commit a crime."

"Well, having said all that, Mr. Bruch, what do you think?"

"If it is the founder of the Linux system digital model... this, er, Mr. Israel does have enough achievements to win the Fields Medal..."

"Mr. Chairman!" Vice Chairman Soros shouted incredulously: "Over the years, there has never been a precedent for the Fields Medal to be awarded to hackers!"

"Stop it," Bruch interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Aren't you willing to admit it, times are changing."

"But such a deviant person..." Many people in the venue still found it hard to accept.

"The ancestors said that mathematics is free." Bruch's young assistant suddenly took a step forward, his face flushed under the eyes of everyone, and he mustered up the courage to say: "Then why do mathematicians have to be ruled by the rules of the world?" constrained?"

"Why are you bound by...?" Soros couldn't help being stunned when he heard this.

When he was in a daze, Bruch cleared his throat and said: "We can award the Fields Medal to Mr. Israel, but the name of the corresponding winner has been engraved on the medal before. If we want to award Mr. I, I'm afraid It takes time to engrave..."

"Do you have a blank medal?" Octo asked.

"...Yes, yes."

"Then give him a blank."

"Ah... that's alright?" Bruch's eyes widened.

"Blank medals would be better," Octo said with a smile, "because we are..."

"Anonymous." Zheng Xiu on the stage spat out the same word with him softly.

Five minutes later, a gold Fields Medal without the name of the winner was placed on a red velvet tray, and Bruch, the president of the International Union of Mathematicians, handed it to a young mathematician named Israel on the Internet In his hands, this scene was forever recorded by the cameras of the reporters present and witnessed by thousands of viewers sitting in front of the TV.

To some extent, the special object of this medal has become a highlight in the history of modern mathematics, and later generations will also call Israel a "hacker mathematician."

"Let's go." From the corner, an aged voice sounded softly, and the blond uncle of Germanic origin responded respectfully, supported the back of the other party's chair with a little force, and pushed the seat away—it turned out that the speaker was in a wheelchair.

"I didn't expect to see those two little guys again before I died... But this time, I'm afraid it will really be the last time..."

"Please don't be so pessimistic..."

"Let me tell you, those two children were still very young back then, and they probably only came to you." The man in the wheelchair gestured with his hands to the waist height of the man behind him: "Such a little bit, with big eyes, They are like two cute little angels, and they are also very gifted in mathematics. Before going to bed at night, they got into the bed after washing deliciously, and lay on my left and right sides respectively, listening to me about mathematics..."

"...The one above, Israel, always looks like a little adult. Although he is younger than Octo, he handles everything at home. He is really reliable on weekdays, but sometimes he takes himself too seriously. Adults, they still make jokes... Once they moved a set of computers from downstairs. It was originally the two of them working together to lift the big cardboard box, but Israel told Octo that you go to rest, and he can do it by himself. Octo was obedient. As soon as the ground was loosened, Israel rolled down the stairs with the suitcase..."

"Ah! Did you get injured from the fall..."

"Don't worry, a young man at that age can go straight to Superman if he wears his underwear outside!" The man in the wheelchair said cheerfully, "On the contrary, Octo is busy repairing Israel with a medicine kit and a computer with a toolbox." one night……"

"If you tell me this, I'm afraid I will be silenced afterwards..." The uncle pushing the wheelchair rubbed his nose.

"Hey, I'll intercede for you, Adrian..."

When Zheng Xiu was about to leave after receiving the medal, Zixin stopped everyone through the conference speaker.

"Come here today, and there is one more thing I want to ask you all."

"Don't push yourself!" Soros gritted his teeth.

Brucher's expression was not very good either. Although he personally presented the award to Zheng Xiu, it was still a bit coerced after all: "What do you want us to do?"

At this time, Pixir had already escaped from Zheng Xiu's claws, and was wiping his sweat with a handkerchief in shock: "...can we refuse?"

Octo said gently: "This is all voluntary, I will never force it."

As Zixin spoke, he turned his head to look at Xingchu, who was resisting the invasion of intelligence personnel from various countries, and the latter nodded slightly to him.

"I don't know how many people here are willing to help me design the encryption algorithm of the 'Roster of God'?"

"God's roster?!" Someone exclaimed.

"Yes, I decided to seal it forever," Octo said.

"What is he talking about? What is the roster of gods?" Someone was also confused about the situation, and was pulled over by someone next to him, whispering a few words in his ear, and his face suddenly became extremely shocked: "So there is such a thing in the world?" ..."

"All of you here are the most outstanding figures in the field of mathematics. Only the encryption algorithm you set for it can be reassuring. Therefore, please forgive my abruptness and make this unfeeling request to everyone here."

TV stations in various countries are broadcasting the live broadcast of the conference, and the ratings are skyrocketing. Now not only people in the computer industry, but even politicians are focusing their attention on this conference.

Soros replied "I will not accompany you" on the spot and was about to walk out of the venue when the cell phone in his pocket rang suddenly. He picked it up impatiently, but the expression on his face changed completely in just a few seconds. "Yes, yes, I understand." Even though it was just talking on the mobile phone, he still bowed frequently, which was extremely respectful.

After hanging up the phone, the vice chairman turned around, walked back to the venue again, and said with a smile: "Please let me participate in the encryption work."

At the same time, many mathematicians in the venue received calls from different places, and finally all of them expressed their willingness to cooperate fully with smiles on their faces.

Zixin turned off the microphone temporarily, then turned to ask another person in the room: "Brother Xingchu, how do you know they will definitely agree? We don't pay you..."

Xingchu smiled and explained: "I brought out the 'God Roster' from the air force base, but was blocked by various forces. Everyone wanted to get this list, which meant that they controlled the world's 328 top hackers. But they failed without exception, which made them realize that it is not so easy to seize the roster of gods from us. Therefore, instead of not being able to compete, worrying about being used against yourself by you or other forces every day, is well versed Politicians who are wise to protect their lives would rather keep it sealed forever, and no one can get this power."

After listening to his explanation, Zixin easily understood: "It makes sense."

Xingchu nodded, and added: "Not only that, but no country will allow themselves not to participate. This will make them feel more at ease and make it easier for them to make small moves. Therefore, Zheng Xiu will be assigned an important task next. Let him be the director, responsible for checking the logical loopholes or backdoors that mathematicians from various countries may deliberately leave."

"Yes, let everyone restrain each other, this is the most effective 'encryption algorithm'!"
