Chapter 158 TestThursday, March 11th.
Today is the day when Light Year begins its closed beta.
Yesterday, the game opened the pre-download channel, and judging from the background, the number of downloads is considerable.
These days, discussions about the game have been very heated, and people in the two-dimensional circle are looking forward to the official launch of Lightyear.
Lu Li and Jiang Lianxue arrived at the company very early.
The directors of various branches gathered in the conference room at this time, staring at the background data on the projector, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
Lu Li and Uncle Liu sat in the corner of the conference room, watching the live broadcast together on their phones.
They were watching two anchors with a large number of fans. Both of them had taken over Light Year's business orders, and when the game's closed beta test was launched at ten o'clock, they would both broadcast live the game content.
Lu Li and Uncle Liu didn't understand the specific game operations and data, so they helped do some easy and simple tasks.
They were mainly curious about everyone's real reaction to the game and wanted to see what the audience in the live broadcast room had to say.
But he couldn't help but watch the host who was so good at making things lively. Lu Li, who was wearing headphones, tried hard to suppress his smile and experienced the pleasure of slacking off in the conference room.
Although the announcement stated that the server would be opened at 10 ., it was actually opened at around 9:40 .
All preparations have been made, so there is no need to wait any longer.
As the game was officially launched, all the directors of Lightyear Company were a little nervous. What they were most worried about was the problem of the server crashing.
But fortunately, this did not happen, and the servers that Lightyear invested heavily in are indeed effective.
Looking at the increasing number of players shown in the projection, Jiang Lianxue's eyes flickered slightly and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
Regardless of whether the game is fun enough, at least it is popular.
Before the game's official test, it mainly used some meaningful close-ups of character portraits to attract attention.
Now that the game has officially started testing, new players have discovered that this game is indeed clear in meaning, and “big” means justice.
Just as everyone was staring at the data nervously, the door of the conference room was knocked, and an employee pushed the door open and stuck his head out holding a tablet.
"Boss Jiang, there is an emergency."
All of a sudden, everyone in the meeting room turned to look at the employee who was speaking.
The employee was so frightened by the scene that he almost lost his grip on the tablet.
Jiang Lianxue tried to soothe him and asked, "What's going on? What's the problem?"
"The security department said that hackers are attacking our game server and they are doing their best to intercept them."
Hearing this, everyone in the meeting room looked serious, and Uncle Liu even stood up.
"Miss, I'll go take a look."
Jiang Lianxue nodded slightly, "Uncle Liu, I'm counting on you."
When it comes to security, Uncle Liu is a true expert, whether it is personal safety or network security.
Seeing this, Lu Li also stood up and wanted to follow and take a look.
After all, he is also a computer science student. Maybe he can't be of much help, but he can at least broaden his horizons.
Intrusion and counter-intrusion between hackers are scenes that you don't have many opportunities to see in normal times.
Of course, Lu Li would rather not see it.
As soon as they walked out of the conference room, Uncle Liu asked the employee about the details. While leading the way, the employee explained the current situation to the two of them, "I heard from several colleagues in the security department that the hacker organization on the other side is notorious in the gaming industry. They have previously attacked many small gaming companies, using DDoS attacks to force the servers to crash."
Uncle Liu's face was calm. "Are you treating us as a small game workshop and trying to extort money from us?"
"That should be the case." The employee nodded. "After all, we at Lightyear have never released any games before. The other party may be targeting us for this reason."
Lu Li, who was following behind him, couldn't help but ask, "What's the situation now? I saw that the host in the live broadcast has entered the game normally."
"Right now, my colleagues in the security department are killing people fiercely."
"Killing in a fiery way?"
Lu Li was stunned for a moment. It sounded like the situation was not that serious, and it seemed that Guangnian still had the upper hand.
The employee repeated affirmatively, "It's really a fierce killing. They are currently trying to crack the information of the hacker group. They have contacted the police to see if they can catch them all this time."
"what?"
Lu Li blinked. He knew that Guangnian’s employees were all very powerful, but this was the first time he found one so powerful.
He had also heard rumors about these hacker groups, and knew that many small game developers had to temporarily suspend services for maintenance, with some even actually paying "protection fees" in exchange for safety.
It is extremely rare to see someone like Light Year, who not only refuses to compromise but even turns the tables.
At this moment, Lu Li was a little confused about who the hacker was.
Lightyear's Game Security Department is on the sixth floor. As soon as you get out of the elevator, you can hear their enthusiastic shouting, and occasionally a few words in dialect pop up.
Uncle Liu couldn't help but laugh, "Am I on the battlefield? Take me to see your team leader."
When they walked into the office, they saw the head of the security team who was on the phone, counting a series of phone numbers.
A few minutes later, he hung up the phone and looked up at Uncle Liu, his face excited, "Uncle, you're finally here. We have found some phone numbers and locked down the approximate range of the other party."
Uncle Liu listened carefully to the team leader's report, and then quickly began to assign tasks.
The team leader seemed to respect Uncle Liu very much, and the entire security team immediately took action according to Uncle Liu's deployment.
Lu Li, who was listening at the side, felt that everyone became busy in an instant.
Although I was very busy before, it seemed that I didn't have a clear goal.
With the arrival of Uncle Liu, everyone knew what their specific tasks were.
Lu Li was very impressed. He didn't expect Uncle Liu to know so much about network security.
From the initial hacker invasion to Lightyear's active attack, the hacker organization must be regretting it now. Why didn't they choose to invade Lightyear?
Lightyear Media has been releasing TV series, movies, animations and other works for a long time, but this is the first time it has tried to create a game.
The hacker group could never have imagined that Lightyear would invest such a huge amount of money in its first game.
And there was no publicity for Lightyear before the official testing began, and it only suddenly appeared in front of everyone at the National Day Comic Exhibition.
After watching for half an hour, Lu Li found an empty workstation and sat down to continue observing the live broadcast.
Everyone has responded very well to the game Lightyear, and the anchors have given it high praise.
The players were not aware of the hacker attack on the server.
At present, the future of Lightyear looks bright.
Lu Li couldn't help but wonder, will the news about the hacker attack being caught in one fell swoop be on the hot search tomorrow?
If this is true, then the popularity of Light Years may reach a new level.
