The 10,000th Rebirth
Chapter 784: One is smarter than the other
Conrad thought for a moment and organized his words before speaking, "Since you know Ryosuke Watanabe and Lu Xiangyu live here, you should know everything that happened before."
"Get straight to the point."
Chen Luo frowned, a little impatient.
Conrad was startled and hurriedly said, "We first received the news more than half a month ago from a man named Vincent Eugene. He opened a company in Gotham that specializes in reprinting. Computers, which provide the U.S. military with legacy technology for running missile systems.
Vincent is responsible for purchasing and refurbishing computer equipment, deleting data, and selling it to US military bases. "
Chen Luo understood what was going on as soon as he heard it. In order to avoid being invaded by hackers and ensure system security, the secret base of the Mi Army all used systems from the 1970s, which are "legacy technologies."
Although these software are safe, their service life is very short because of their age, and once they are used up, there is no place to produce them.
So from time to time it is necessary to go to the market to purchase parts that still exist and replace them, such as computers from the 1970s, memory and floppy disks, etc.
This Vincent is equivalent to a second-hand dealer of "legacy technology", buying at low prices and selling to the US military equipment.
"What valuable legacy technology can he, a second-hand dealer, have in his hands?"
"One month before Ryosuke Watanabe escaped, Vincent purchased a batch of eight-inch floppy disks at an auction, more than a thousand of them, and then resold them to missile bases across the United States.
He had originally deleted the data inside before selling it to the US military base.
Ryosuke Watanabe is a software engineer at that base, helping the US military test the security of systems and networks to see if they can be attacked by hackers.
One of the more than a thousand floppy disks came into his hands. He recovered the deleted data for some unknown reason and found very valuable legacy technology in them. "
Chen Luo smiled and said, "That's it?"
Ryosuke Watanabe believes that being valuable does not mean that it is truly valuable, but that everyone in the world must think it is valuable.
Conrad shook his head quickly and continued, "After Ryosuke Watanabe found out about this, he sneaked into Vincent's company secretly and wanted to steal the company's sales records.
As a result, Vincent suddenly returned to the company halfway. In order to avoid being discovered with his true intention, he pretended to be a robbery.
After taking away all the valuable things from Vincent, he also took away the sales list.
Vincent sold more than a thousand floppy disks to more than ten missile bases across the United States. After reading it, Watanabe Ryosuke knew that it was impossible to find all the floppy disks with his own ability.
So he found Lu Chengchou, an international intelligence dealer, to help. "
Chen Luo narrowed his eyes slightly. He thought quickly in his mind, but he quickly figured out the logic.
Ryosuke Watanabe restored the data on one of the floppy disks. After discovering that this thing was extremely valuable, he restored the data on the same batch of floppy disks, but there was nothing he wanted, so he ran to find Vincent.
In other words, the floppy disk recovered by Ryosuke Watanabe has little value on its own.
The most likely possibility is that the legacy technology was divided into two or more parts, and then sold to military bases across the United States by Vincent who was unaware of it.
This is also reasonable, because the memory of floppy disks at that time was generally small. Once data that occupied a large amount of memory was encountered, it was usually divided into several disks for storage.
To use a very simple metaphor, Watanabe Ryosuke is holding a dragon ball in his hand. He is now trying to find the remaining dragon balls from the more than a thousand floppy disks sold, and prepare to collect them all to summon the dragon.
But his ability was limited and he couldn't get those floppy disks from other US military bases, so he had to rely on Lu Chengchou's power.
"Did Lu Chengchou help him find it?"
"Lu Chengqiu used a lot of connections and power to quickly retrieve the floppy disks from three military bases, but there was nothing they wanted in them.
At this time, Lu Chengqiu suddenly discovered that Vincent had not sold all the software.
The sales list that Ryosuke Watanabe took away was not a delivery list.
The American military base ordered these floppy disks and would not ask for them right away. Instead, Vincent would deliver them when needed.
In fact, 90% of the more than a thousand floppy disks are still in Vincent's hands.
But when Lu Chengqiu sent people to find Vincent, he found that he had run away.
Vincent realized afterward that Ryosuke Watanabe had clearly gone to steal something, but he suddenly changed his mind about robbing him and took away an irrelevant sales list, which must have been concealing his true intention.
He realized that there must be some valuable information in these floppy disks, so he restored all the data inside, and then checked them one by one, and discovered the secret...
When Chen Luo heard this, he couldn't help laughing. These people are really not fuel-efficient lamps. Each one is smarter than the last.
This Vincent must have discovered what the information inside was. He knew the value and the danger, so he immediately ran away with the floppy disk.
"Lu Chengchou immediately sent people to hunt down Vincent, but after he couldn't find him for a long time, he posted a reward of up to 10 million US dollars on the dark web and the Blood of Blood mission system.
As soon as this reward came out, intelligence agencies from various countries began to pay attention to this person named Vincent.
Because Lu Chengchou is an international intelligence dealer, he publicly offered a reward for a person, which means that this person is worth at least 100 million US dollars, or even more. "
Chen Luo couldn't help laughing, "So you intelligence agencies saw Lu Chengchou chasing Vincent and wanted to know why he was worth so much money, so you all started looking for this person?"
"Yes, yes, especially after Lu Chengchou increased the reward to 30 million US dollars, we all started to check who Vincent was, and finally found out about these things."
When Conrad said this, "With such a high reward, Vincent knew he couldn't escape, so he took the initiative to contact Lu Chengchou and asked him to sell the floppy disk to him for 100 million US dollars, and the result was..."
"In the end, not only did he not get the money, but he also lost the floppy disk and his life."
Chen Luo didn't even need to think about it, he knew what the result would be.
Vincent's cleverness is okay to play with ordinary people, but fighting with someone like Lu Chengchou is simply courting death.
"Yes. "
Conrad nodded and said, "When Lu Chengchou got the remaining floppy disk, Watanabe Ryosuke ran away."
Chen Luo laughed when he heard this. Watanabe Ryosuke must have found out that Vincent was dead and was worried that he would suffer the same fate.
So he took this thing and fled the United States first, away from Lu Chengchou's sphere of influence, and then discussed the subsequent transactions.
I recommend another good book "I am not the reincarnation of a powerful person with full charm". It was written by my younger brother. If you are short of books, please give me some face and support it~
