Chapter 1395: The Counterattack Against Qualcomm Begins
"Professor Song, you've done a great job. Go get the money from President Ye later. I'll give each of you a one million yuan bonus!"
Lu Feng gently patted Song Xiaolong on the shoulder, his face encouraging: "As for you as the person in charge, I'll give you an extra five million in bonuses!"
"Thank you, sir. We will definitely continue to work hard and will never let you down!"
Song Xiaolong straightened his body, his expression one of great excitement.
However, his excitement stemmed not from Lu Feng's reward, but from Lu Feng's recognition.
One million may seem like an astronomical number to outsiders, but to these researchers, it's just a string of numbers.
After all, they're not doing this for the money.
"Haha, Professor Song, your task is very important, but you must also take care to rest. You are all my top generals, and I would be heartbroken if anything happened to any of you!"
Lu Feng laughed again, fearing that the other party might get carried away and study day and night, so he quickly gave them a heads-up.
"Yes, sir, thank you for your concern, we will be careful!"
After Lu Feng unleashed a flurry of attacks, Song Xiaolong would probably have been moved to tears if he hadn't been mindful of the many colleagues around him.
"Oh, by the way, I heard you say earlier that you've already started working on GPUs?"
As if he had thought of something, Lu Feng suddenly asked.
"That's right, we do have that plan. Do you have any requirements?"
Song Xiaolong nodded and asked.
"There is a requirement: you must temporarily suspend your research on CPUs and focus all your efforts on the field of mobile phone chips, and try to develop several more versions."
After thinking for a moment, Lu Feng said.
"Huh?.......Okay, then let's pause our GPU research for now!"
Although he didn't know why Lu Feng suddenly changed his mind, Song Xiaolong still decided to obey unconditionally.
Lu Feng had his reasons for changing his mind at the last minute and ordering them to stop researching GPUs.
This initial clash with Qualcomm made him realize a very serious problem—China's chip lifeline has been firmly held in the hands of major chip companies.
If he's already finding it this difficult to deal with Qualcomm in the mobile phone industry, imagine how difficult it would be to deal with conglomerates in the CPU and GPU industries as well.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, his previously established strategy needs to be adjusted, shifting from simultaneously attacking three areas to addressing them one by one.
This method is slower, but it's more reliable.
First, we'll tackle the mobile phone chip, then the CPU, and finally the GPU.
Lu Feng spent the entire next day on Ocean Heart Island.
Besides resolving the chip issue, he didn't forget about the existence of the AI Legion and brought them directly to the Heart of the Ocean Island.
Among them, the research institute was of paramount importance, and he directly arranged for twenty intelligent robots to provide 24-hour all-round vigilance and protection.
After doing all this, I didn't return to Shanghai until late at night.
As usual, since it was the day the treasure chests refreshed each week, he stayed up until midnight to open them before finally going to sleep.
This treasure chest also earned him another five million reputation points, restoring his reputation points to ten million.
However, since the construction of Ocean Heart Island is still ongoing, he spent more than three million to purchase a batch of building modules in order to speed up the construction process.
Silent all night.
The next day, the heads of various corporations gathered in Shanghai, having obtained what they wanted, left the city one after another.
However, even though they left, Lu Feng didn't stay idle.
Since Qualcomm dared to take the initiative to impose sanctions on him, he had to retaliate accordingly, otherwise people would think he was afraid of Qualcomm.
Hami Games Engineering Department.
The engineering department was bustling with activity. In addition to Hami's original programmers, there were also many senior network engineers who had rushed over overnight from Baidu's headquarters and YiNet's headquarters.
"Chairman Lu, are you sure you want to use this method? Should we reconsider?"
Hami President He Zhiheng stood cautiously beside Lu Feng and whispered his suggestion.
Attacking Qualcomm's internal network is absolutely insane.
Although Qualcomm is not a pure internet company, its internal security network is definitely no less robust than that of large corporations like Aston Villas.
A hasty attack could very well result in the enemy's engineers tracking down your location and launching a counterattack before you even break through their defenses.
"What's there to be afraid of? We dared to stand up to Tengfei back then, so what's there to fear now? Besides, since I dared to choose this method, do you think I wouldn't have made any preparations?"
Lu Feng snorted coldly, his tone carrying a hint of determination.
The "preparation" he mentioned was the Chaos Network Virus that the system had rewarded him with a long time ago.
A super virus that claims to be able to breach the defenses of any force on Earth.
As he spoke, he took out a USB drive containing the Chaos virus from his pocket and plugged it into the supercomputer that had been prepared in advance.
"Gentlemen, we may begin our operation!"
He looked at the programmers in the engineering department who were already eager to try, and gave them the order.
"Palat pat pat pat pat!"
As soon as he gave the order, many programmers sprang into action, their fingers flying across the keyboards, turning the once quiet engineering department into a scene as lively as firecrackers during Chinese New Year.
Seeing that there was no turning back, He Zhiheng, who was standing to the side, stopped trying to persuade him.
Meanwhile, at Qualcomm headquarters.
As the chairman, Lyman Monroe was already aware of Lu Feng's actions in Shanghai.
"What amazing skills! He managed to neutralize my attack in such a short time. This Lu Feng is truly terrifying. No wonder he was able to make Mercedes admit defeat!"
Inside the office, Lyman Monroe let out a deep breath, his eyes filled with apprehension.
He underestimated this young man.
In less than two days, not only did they resolve the grievances of many groups, but they also worked with LinkTech to solve the chip shortage problem.
These methods are even more terrifying than those old foxes who have been navigating the business world for decades.
"Looks like I need to take you more seriously!"
On the leather sofa, Lyman Monroe pressed the button to call his secretary: "Make arrangements for me, I need to fly to Korea!"
Right after he gave the order, a problem occurred in the engineering department at Qualcomm headquarters.
As usual, the programmers in the engineering department were conducting routine checks on their company's security network.
But what they found out when they checked was shocking: just minutes before, the number of attacks on the security network had doubled.
Clearly, someone is hacking into their network, and it's not just one person.
The programmer in charge of the inspection didn't dare to be careless and immediately reported it to higher management.
"What's going on? Why have the number of attacks suddenly doubled?"
