The storm of electronic fraud, the day I was deceived into northern Myanmar

In 1994, the U.S. banking industry suffered an unusual cyber attack.

A Russian hacker quietly infiltrated Citibank's systems and stole millions of dollars.

This incident went unnoticed for a long time, and the case became known to the outside world until the hacker himself came forward to reveal it.

During the 2016 U.S. election, an incident called the "E-mail Gate" shocked the public.

A group of hackers broke into Hillary Clinton's personal email, exposing her efforts to sideline political opponents and manipulate the media.

This incident had a major impact on the general election, and was even considered to be one of the key factors that helped the "Knowing King" be elected.

Despite this, no hacking group has publicly claimed the attack.

The U.S. Director of National Intelligence expressed strong anger and concern, calling this a direct and bold interference in the U.S. election.

Because of their technical prowess and lackluster rhetoric, Russian hackers are often the scapegoats for international scandals.

A Russian security expert once commented: "In this world, whenever a celebrity's privacy is leaked, someone will always blame Russian hackers."

The rise of the Russian hacker community is partly due to the strong science and engineering education system left over from the Soviet era.

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union competed with the United States through more than just nuclear weapons.

The Soviet Union, which was based on heavy industry, attached great importance to mathematics and programming education.

Since the 20s, the Soviet Union has provided software development education to preschool children. Information technology courses for middle school students include theoretical foundations, computer operating principles, information technology, network technology, algorithms, and programming languages.

Russian university mathematics education enjoys a high reputation around the world, and many mathematics textbooks in domestic universities come from Russia.

Under such an education system, Russian students have achieved consecutive victories in the International Collegiate Programming Competition (icpc), winning the championship almost every year since 2012, demonstrating their outstanding talents in programming.

However, Russia does not have an Internet industry strong enough to absorb these top talents.

Among the top 10 companies on the Moscow Exchange, oil, mining and steel are the main ones. Although local Internet startups have developed, there is a serious excess of talent.

Therefore, many Russian talents choose to become hackers, which seems easier to them than regular employment.

Huawei has set up a research institute in Russia since 1999. Ren Zhengfei once mentioned that Novosibirsk University has won the World Computer Competition for six consecutive years, but outstanding graduates are often poached by large international companies such as Google with high salaries.

Huawei proposed that it needs to provide higher salaries to attract these talents and conduct innovation and research and development in Russia.

Many hacker technologies in northern Myanmar are also supported by Russia. I have heard that some parks even plan to trick Russian hacker talents.

As for whether it was successful, I don't know.

Anyway, in the past few years I have been in Myanmar, I have never met any Russian technicians.

As for why North Korea’s hacking technology is stronger than Russia’s, it is mainly because most of Russia’s hackers are private organizations.

North Korea's hackers are all selected from an early age and eventually trained by the government.

The technical content between the two is obviously different...

When Wang Feiyu sent me Zhou Yang's detailed domestic information, I read it carefully.

Zhou Yang graduated from a well-known domestic university and founded a software company after graduation. His company's assets once reached tens of millions.

That is to say, when the company was at its peak, his classmate who started the business with him stabbed him in the back. Not only did he steal his girlfriend who he had been dating for many years, but he also made him give up his shares in the company through a yin and yang contract, and ultimately owed a huge debt. .

Later, in order to repay the debt, he met Hu Laosan. With Hu Laosan's help, he repaid the huge debt and finally followed Hu Laosan to the park.

His parents are still alive at home, and he has a sister who is in college, and his life is not rich.

After getting this information, I contacted Wang Feiyu and asked him to find a way to find Zhou Yang's sister and make a video for me.

"What video?" Wang Feiyu asked with a smirk.

I was a little speechless and sent a message saying: "Just make a normal video, don't mess around."

"Okay, I'll have someone do it right away."

"it is good."

Within a day, he sent me the video.

Zhou Yang's sister looks like a midsummer breeze, fresh and natural in the video.

She is slim and tall, and even though she is wearing ordinary clothes, her sunny and cheerful aura seems to be conveyed through the screen.

Especially when she smiles, those two playful little tiger teeth add a bit of cuteness and cuteness, which is eye-catching.

While I was watching the video, Zhao Yuan came to my desk unknowingly and took a look: "What are you looking at?"

I was startled by her: "Why didn't you even make a sound when you came in?"

She grinned: "I saw you staring at the computer screen so absorbedly, so I came over curiously to see...Who is this sister? She can't be your old friend, right?"

I turned off the video and said, "Zhou Yang's biological sister."

Zhao Yuan seemed a little surprised by this answer, a glimmer of thought flashed in her eyes, and she said slowly: "I have asked my people to investigate. There is no news about the theft of your ZP coin funds this time. .And the Zhou Yang you mentioned is always in the computer room, and few people have contact with him."

I nodded. Although I had roughly guessed the result, I was still a little disappointed when Zhao Yuan said it.

"Okay, I see."

"What are you going to do next?"

I smiled, lit a cigarette and said, "I decided to go to the West District myself."

"Are you going there in person?" She raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah." I exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Don't worry, if something happens to me, Hu Laosan will be the first to eat and walk around."

When the shareholders' meeting announced that Hu Laosan and I were starting to compete, it was clearly stated that we must not threaten each other's safety.

To put it bluntly, if something happens to me now, Hu Laosan will definitely be held accountable, and He Hong will definitely take this opportunity to get rid of him.

In the same way, if something happens to Hu Laosan, I will not be able to escape the blame.

"Then when are you going to go?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"Tomorrow."

"Then let Agui arrange a few people to go with you?"

I waved my hand and said, "No, just come with me when the time comes."

She breathed out: "Okay, anyway, go and be safe."

I nodded and said nothing more...
