my return to life

Due to the three issues of 'holding the key', the official announcement of Dangkang Games triggered additional discussions.

"Why did Dangkang suddenly launch a security plug-in for platform users?"

"Are you really going to enter the security field?"

"But this is not quite right. If you are entering the field of personal security, there is no need to limit the group."

"I remember that Dangkang already has a security operation and maintenance team, why is there a major upgrade?"

"..."

Among them, an insider broke the news:

"It is said that this hacker attack was handled very well. The DDOS traffic attack did not achieve significant results. The first breakthrough was that some ordinary players' computers were captured by hackers, resulting in a large-scale collapse;

I guess the above is to treat both symptoms and root causes, so on the one hand, they spend money to upgrade the security issues at the server level, and on the other hand, they spend money to cooperate to launch personal security plug-ins for players.

After all, there are rumors that in these 24 hours, the loss exceeded 3 million RMB, which is equal to the entire profit of the third quarter, and it may be more than that;

So we discussed it and thought it was understandable.

In addition...

There are rumors in the security department that the coverage of personal security plug-ins for platform users will not be too large. It can also be seen from the statement that there is no intention to grab the market.

The feature of the rumored plug-in is that it collects from everyone, has powerful functions, is free, and effectively solves personal game security problems. It is bundled on the platform and does not need to be installed.

However, it will take a certain amount of time to debug and test before launching. "

"..."

This was Fang Nian's first small counterattack after discussing with Guan Qiuhe.

Dangkang can completely avoid hacking methods and directly fight back with upright methods—entering the field of network security.

Because of the intentional publicity, it quickly made the headlines of major portal websites.

Whether it is a player or a netizen who eats melons, they all have doubts about the operation of Dangkang games.

Just judging from the revelations of insiders and the summary of various news.

Dangkang Games is just trying to remedy the situation.

In this hacking incident, many users suffered losses, and they also paid a lot of attention to computer security issues.

Especially since the majority of gamers are male.

Naturally pay more attention to the safety of electronic products.

So from this point of view, the remarks on the game forum are instead expressing support and expectations for the practice of Dangkang Games.

Among them, a sensible person pointed out sharply:

"Such as the security guards of the Red Clothes Factory, although they are free, there are too many bundled things. If you think about it carefully, the computer speed has actually slowed down a lot, and it is difficult to uninstall;

So if the Dangkang game platform really launches security software in the form of plug-ins, I think it's pretty good. "

"..."

After paying attention to the latest developments, Fang Nian closed the computer and muttered in a low voice: "I vaguely remember that there was a big conflict in 3Q around the Mid-Autumn Festival. Did it add fuel to the fire now?"

"I didn't see any movement either."

Then, Fang Nian looked at the calendar, the next Wednesday on the 22nd will be the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th.

It's only been a few days.

It really might be ahead of the development of the original time and space.

After all, this hacking incident is indeed very troublesome.

Goose Factory also took the opportunity to express a statement that it will update the security suite that protects QQ.

The Red Clothes Factory is even more open and aboveboard.

In short, Fang Nian is not in a hurry, he is just looking forward to the follow-up progress.

Although the crisis has basically passed, the huge impact on Dangkang games cannot be directly reversed.

Earlier, Wen Ye briefly reported to Fang Nian the direct losses caused by the hacker attack on Dangkang Games over the past day or so.

"Mr. Fang, after statistics and calculations, Dangkang invested more than 6000 million yuan in additional operating expenses for servers in the first round of attacks by hackers;

The total direct economic loss is 9000 million.

Indirect losses exceeded [-] million.

The follow-up compensation plan, including the 'Dangkang Cup' and subsequent investment in safety upgrades, will have a budget of more than 5000 million.

The comprehensive loss is close to 5.5 million. "

This figure far exceeds the 3 million estimated by the outside world.

Even though it was expected, Fang Nian was still heartbroken.

Wen Ye also reported on the aftermath of the hacking incident.

It was basically consistent with Fang Nian's guess. At the beginning, there were strong traces of man-made, but then it got out of control.

after all……

Cyberspace is public.

The world is so big, there are always some people who just have nothing to do and want to make a big event.

Although most of the people involved in this big incident were wanted or recruited all over the world.

But the losses caused to Dangkang will not be reversed!

Fang Nian sighed: "The market is so big, alas..."

…………

At 14 a.m. on the 8th, China time, Dangkang Games officially released the news again.

"Our company and Blizzard Entertainment have initially reached a memorandum of cooperation, and will distribute "StarCraft II" in China.

At that time, our company will also announce other game-related matters, so please look forward to it.

Dangkang Games will always provide gamers with better game content and services! "

Fang Nian got the news two hours earlier than the netizens.

He always gets up early.

Guan Qiuhe is really talented in business negotiation, which is something that cannot be learned or envied at all.

Before Fang Nian knew that Guan Qiuhe had gone to Irvine, California, he didn't pay much attention.

Although he knows that Blizzard headquarters is in Irvine.

But after all, Blizzard has a long-term partner in China, which is NetEase.

But in just two days, Guan Qiuhe snatched the cooperation from NetEase.

Besides awesome, Fang Nian couldn't find any other words to describe Mr. Guan.

Almost at the same time the news was made public, public opinion exploded.

"Fuck! Dang Kang is so awesome, he directly snatched the job from Ding Sanshi! This wave, this wave directly snatched the domestic distribution rights of StarCraft!"

"What I'm more curious about is whether the next version of World of Warcraft will also be represented by Dang Kang?"

"If I were Ding Sanshi, I might have gone to the World Financial Center with my knife at this time!"

"Am I the only one who is curious about what conditions Mr. Guan used to persuade Blizzard?"

"Not much to say, Dang Kang is awesome, I thought it would be a long time before StarCraft 2 would log into the national server!"

"..."

Among other things, the players are still very excited.

You must know that in the past, foreign games often had a national server version long after they were launched in North America, which made many players sigh.

And now...

"It seems that since Dangkang Games started to launch the platform, the national server versions of popular foreign games have been launched much sooner."

"It can only be said that Dangkang really wants to provide our players with more content."

"I am somewhat looking forward to the other game affairs in the announcement."

"..."

Therefore, the popularity of the Dangkang game platform, which has just experienced a serious hacker crisis, has exploded.

In major game forums, the proportion of discussions containing the word 'Dangkang' has risen sharply.

It is foreseeable that the Dangkang game platform should usher in another wave of user growth, and it may be possible to make up for losses within this month.

After all, a large part of it is the funds that should have been invested.

Game security is a core issue for a platform.

In contrast, the bleak situation where no one cares about the remaining major game platforms.

As for the TGP of Goose Factory Games, it has always ranked first in the domestic market share and is unshakable.

but……

No matter what.

The Dangkang game platform has minimized the impact of the 24-hour downtime due to hackers through simple responses.

After all, Dangkang Games' overall response to this incident was not bad.

Even if some players' personal computers were captured by hackers, there was no serious account theft.

There is no doubt that an announcement like Dangkang Games will make some people very uncomfortable.

From a certain level, it has the meaning of killing one thousand enemies and harming oneself eight hundred.

…………

There was still some time before the ten o'clock class, Fang Nian sat cross-legged on the sofa and swiped his phone.

Suddenly saw a netizen Weibo:

"It's strange, why suddenly there is an icon called 'QQ Computer Manager' on my computer desktop, and it starts automatically when I turn on the computer! Do you have this software on your computer?"

"..."

Fang Nian blinked: "Do you want to be so rude? This is how the fun begins?"

Chapter 542

Less than twenty hours before and after.

When Goose Factory supported Dangkang Games, it announced that it would upgrade the QQ security suite.

Now, the computer housekeeper is so openly launched with a mandatory installation attitude.

Through keyword searches, Fang Nian found that there were many similar remarks in the entire public cyberspace.

The earliest related comments were made at 5:40am.

It seems that the Goose Factory released the update in the early morning, and it will download and install silently in the background as long as the computer with QQ software installed is turned on and connected to the Internet.

Fang Nian smacked his lips: "As expected of the goose factory in Pengcheng, this speed, this efficiency, strong!"

"..."

As early as July, an Internet publication published an article "Goose Factory in Dog Day" that shocked the entire Internet.

In the article, Goose Factory is criticized as a public enemy of the Internet.

Write Internet business competition as irreconcilable grievances.

It describes in detail the grievances and grievances between Lianzhong, Hongyi Factory, etc. and Goose Factory. The words are pungent and sharp, accompanied by tears from the "victims" such as the founder of Lianzhong.

There was a huge momentum at that time, so Fang Nian naturally paid attention to this news.

Among them, Wang Xing's Meituan is also the victim.
