Zhuyun's appearance of being on the verge of collapse was simply too convincing.
Even the most brilliant computer geniuses couldn't grasp the full picture of the large-scale offensive and defensive battle taking place in the digital world.
All they could trust was data and code.
And only the part of the data they could access and collect.
This led to all of Zhuyun's opponents only seeing a part of the battlefield, feeling only a corner of this [storm].
But that wasn't the worst part.
The worst part was: the part of the battlefield they saw might not even be real.
Data and code can both be deceiving.
It wasn't until Wangxun's most critical business—the world's largest e-commerce platform—completely crashed and the servers were completely paralyzed that they realized they seemed to have been deceived.
The homepage of Wangxun's e-commerce platform, which had businesses all over the world, had all its carefully crafted content disappear.
Only a large [YOU KNOW WHO I AM] stood there quietly.
It was a shocking sight.
But before the opponents could discuss and figure out what was going on, [Yunzhuzhao] followed in the footsteps of Xinli and Wangxun.
The interruption of Wangxun's global e-commerce business was already a considerable loss.
But compared to Yunzhuzhao, it was insignificant—
Yunzhuzhao is the world's largest cloud service provider, with annual revenue of nearly 100 billion dollars and daily revenue of 250 million dollars.
Every hour of server downtime results in a real-time loss of 10 million dollars!
At the same time, Yunzhuzhao's service agreement also includes a downtime compensation agreement—once the downtime exceeds a certain period, compensation must be provided to customers.
A catastrophic global downtime event like this would require compensation approaching 20 million dollars!
If the losses suffered by customers are too high, they may also file claims against Yunzhuzhao.
The losses in this area cannot be estimated.
Converted into economic benefits, the loss could be as high as several billion US dollars!
What's even more terrifying is that Yunzhuzhao is in the cloud computing business! They were already the strongest party in this offensive and defensive battle!
Now, the "strongest" in the war has also collapsed, causing a strong psychological shock to everyone!
—Even the "strongest" has fallen, can we really defeat Zhuyun?
What made the teammates even more afraid was:
Zhuyun, who had been losing ground and teetering on the brink of collapse in the confrontation half an hour ago, successively defeated two opponents, paralyzed their servers, but still looked the same—
Losing ground, teetering on the brink of collapse.
It seemed like they would completely collapse and die on the spot in the next second.
But somehow, they were fine.
If they still couldn't figure it out at this time, they wouldn't be worthy of building their companies to such a large scale!
They finally realized that they had been played by Zhuyun!
So they immediately changed their combat strategy, switching from strategic offense to strategic defense.
Then they held an emergency meeting to discuss ceasefire countermeasures.
—
The changes in the offensive and defensive situation were unknown to the outside world.
But Wangxun's server downtime and the paralysis of its global e-commerce business; Yunzhuzhao's global cloud services were also completely interrupted.
On the official homepages of both parties, they all became [YOU KNOW WHO I AM!]
Everyone saw these changes.
So the good news kept coming!
"Zhuyun takes another city!"
"Zhuyun takes yet another city!"
The two news spread around the world one after another.
Global media outlets were simply thrilled—even the media in the United States were so excited that they reported the entire process.
A large group of financial media outlets has begun to broadcast the direct economic losses caused by this Internet war in real time.
—The scope of the impact is too great, and it is impossible to calculate the indirect losses in a short period of time.
But even the direct losses were already so high that people were stunned!
Hundreds of billions of dollars in losses have exceeded most people's perception of money and become a pure numerical spectacle.
And Zhuyun, who caused all of this—more precisely, Xu Meng himself, also had a drastically changed image in the minds of global netizens.
The nicknames [Digital Emperor] and [Internet Terrorist] were simultaneously pinned on his head.
Some radical media outlets have even begun to call him "the most terrifying terrorist of this century"!
The next second, this radical account was banned and forcibly cancelled.
—The social network [Juanyun] where these media outlets are located is also fighting Zhuyun at this time!
While encountering Zhuyun's saturation attack, a large group of media outlets and netizens were frantically eating melons, causing their server pressure to explode.
Collapse is already imminent!
After the collapse of Wangxun and Yunzhuzhao, Juanyun has fully contracted its defenses and began to think about how to stop the war.
If these media outlets are allowed to add fuel to the fire and intensify the conflict…
If Xu Meng is accidentally angered, things may really get out of hand!
The keyword [Internet Terrorist] quickly disappeared from the hot trend list, and then the entire word became a prohibited word, and it would be traffic limited as soon as it was released.
Those who were the most radical, constantly attacking Xu Meng himself, and even said something like "Xu Meng should be physically destroyed" were also banned.
This obvious statement was immediately noticed by netizens.
So everyone understood:
[Juanyun] admitted defeat.
Technically, they are no longer opponents, and the tragic situation of their allies is too scary.
Choose to fight Zhuyun to the end for the sake of face and bear huge losses? Or put down your face and surrender?
Juanyun's decision-making team did not hesitate and chose the latter.
Wangxun, Yunzhuzhao, Avalon, etc., which had been defeated by Zhuyun, knelt down neatly—directly sending apology emails to Zhuyun's cooperation mailbox.
Of course, they did not give anyone a handle, saying that they attacked Zhuyun.
They only said that there had been some misunderstandings between each other, and that someone had provoked the conflict, which caused this regrettable conflict.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba.!
"After realizing that someone was provoking us, we realized that this conflict was completely unnecessary!"
"We sincerely hope that we can resolve our conflicts through communication."
"As a sign of sincerity, we are willing to stop first."
"And we are willing to pay a sum of money to compensate Zhuyun for the losses suffered."
"If possible, we are also willing to cooperate with Zhuyun on extremely favorable terms."
… …
They said a lot of similar words of surrender.
The core meaning is only one:
"We admit defeat, can we stop the war?"
"We can pay compensation."
Only Ether Network was particularly tough, not only did it not mean to admit defeat, but it also issued an announcement with harsh words, warning Zhuyun to stop immediately, otherwise it would resort to legal means.
At that time, Zhuyun will bear sky-high compensation, and the global market will also usher in a severe setback!
Zhuyun only replied to Ether Network's harsh words with one character—
[? ] —
The CEO of Ether Network was furious on the spot.
Juanyun, Jinlian, Wangxun, Yunzhuzhao and other companies that admitted defeat were anxious.
Because Zhuyun did not reply to their emails, but instead, they didn't even bother to act and began a large-scale counterattack!
So they also understood:
Surrender is useless!
Compensation is useless!
Talking harshly is even more useless!
Zhuyun is determined to cleanse them with blood!
And they are powerless!
Their businesses are all built on the Internet, "cutting off the network" is to take their lives! "Shutting down the server" is also almost suicide!
… …
… …
In this way, under the broadcast of global media and the attention of netizens.
Zhuyun did not show any mercy, one after another, collapsing the servers of 7 large multinational companies, proving its absolute dominance in the Internet field.
It also completed the coronation of this [Digital Emperor] step by step!
The price of "becoming king" is hundreds of billions of dollars in direct losses and more than trillions in indirect losses.
But this is far from over.
When this happened, it was late at night in the United States.
When the sun rises the next day, the stock market will undoubtedly usher in a crash!
Financial practitioners and stock market investors around the world are destined to have sleepless nights.
All companies around the world that are related to the Internet have also learned a lesson from this battle—
Don't mess with Zhuyun!
… …
Herman also deeply realized this lesson.
It's just that he realized it a little late.
They spent a week taking out a usable database backup from the cold backup to restore the server to operation.
As a price, they lost a whole month of data.
In the previous month, newly registered users, money recharged by players, games purchased, achievements obtained, archives played…
All the content was lost!
The entire Xinli company was scolded by players and lost a large number of users.
Xinli endured the scolding and did its best to clean up the mess, and barely cleaned up the server within a week to restore services to players.
And learned a lesson, spending three times more money on system security than in the past!
However, the server crashed again without warning only one hour after it went online!
Xinli's official website was also hijacked at the same time, and once again became a capital letter—
[GG]!
