Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 347 [Snowden's Decision and Hearing]

On the other side, Luo Sheng couldn't help but smile when he saw this text message: "This product is very vigilant, too, after all, in this business, it should be cautious."

After a while, edited a piece of content and sent it over:

[I have important things to be busy, so my patience is very limited. Mr. Snowdon, OK, I will support you, including technical, financial and even security, I will help you, I will help you contact the media To interview you in secret, the Guardian is quite interested in this matter.

After clicking send, Luo Sheng, who was lying on his back, stared at the ceiling and couldn't help taking a deep breath. After enjoying it for a while, he took the laptop and put it on his chest.

A message from Snowden:

who are you?

Luo Sheng glanced at the editing information and sent it quickly:

[It doesn’t matter who I am, what matters is your thoughts, Mr. Snowden, sometimes being too cautious is not a good thing.OK, if you decide, I will prepare 10 million US dollars for you, and you can even access your designated account now. Tomorrow or even tonight, you can leave the U.S., go to Singapore first, and then transfer to HK, there will be A reporter from The Guardian met you secretly. You completed the secret interview there and gave them the first-hand information. Then you left HK according to my instructions and went to Moscow for asylum. The earth is big, but you There are not many places for you, and Russia is probably one of the few places you can take refuge.

After a while, Snowden sent a short reply.

[Are you Russian?

Luo Sheng immediately edited a piece of information and sent it over.

[Don’t ask these meaningless questions, okay?This is a waste of time, now you just need to tell your decision and I will wait for your reply.

...

At the same time, Snowden in Texas was struggling. This was undoubtedly a thrilling decision, but he finally made a decision.

Edit a message and send it.

[I want to leave tonight, what should I do?I cannot be easily released from the United States. Once I leave, I will be followed by agents soon.

On the other side, Luo Sheng in the hotel yelled "Ness" excitedly when he saw this message, and then quickly sent the edited message.

[Good, you don’t have to worry about these. I will help you avoid the major airport security systems in Texas and the transportation hubs you pass through. You can leave the country in a big way. All cameras, all monitoring, including satellites will be blind. Please bring your mobile phone to ensure that the communication is open for 24 hours. After an hour, someone will instruct you what to do. You only need to follow the requirements.

Seeing this message, Snowden typed out two letters and sent it.

OK

After a while, he discovered that this strange window had closed automatically, and he had regained full control of his computer.

After sitting quietly in front of the computer for a while, he was thinking, but in the end he didn't think about anything. Since it was decided, he could only bet on his fate. Thinking more was meaningless.

Now I can only trust each other completely.

Immediately, Sinodeng got up and packed his things, putting all the important information and evidence into a backpack.

At the same time, Luo Sheng contacted the Guardian through hacking techniques and other means. To be precise, he contacted the reporter who exposed the "Prism Project" in his previous life. This is the safest choice.

Sure enough, the other party was almost as excited as a chicken blood, and immediately flew to HK with his partner from London.

After solving this problem, Luo Sheng finally didn't need to pay attention to this matter anymore. Following the secret interviews and meetings between Snowden and the Guardian reporters, he authorized Xiaona to "navigate" for them.

And I just waited a few days to watch the show.

...

On the second day, that is, the second day of the first round table of business leaders, Luo Sheng received a letter from the North American authorities requesting him to attend the hearings of the North American Senate and the House of Representatives the day after tomorrow. Technology masters the data security, user privacy, and monopoly of North American Internet users and accepts inquiries.

As early as the first day of the opening of the round table, Luo Sheng had learned of the news in advance, so he was not surprised at all.

But the outside world is different. Once the news was disclosed, it made the front page headlines of major mainstream media in the United States. It surpassed the first round table meeting in a flash and spread to all parts of the world in less than an hour. The media are racing to report.

Naturally, it also spread back to the country, causing a sensation in the mainland, and even aroused an uproar on the Internet.

"The news from the World Wide Web just said that this time the U.S. emperor suddenly launched a trouble, Bluestar Technology may face a ruling by the Federal Ministry of Justice for improper handling, and once this happens, it may face a astronomical fine of up to tens of billions of dollars!

"Damn, tens of billions of dollars in fines? Isn't it a waste of half a year?"

"U.S. Emperor Zhen Nima is playing a rogue and shamelessly."

"Can't afford to play?"

"Why is it fine? Is this a monetization suppression, or during the round table, Lao Mei's approach is really a bit too much."

"No way, who can make a big fist..."

"At this point in time, President Luo happens to be in New York, and it must be a conspiracy by Lao Mei."

"Oh, this roundtable is too ridiculous. The Americans are too hateful."

...

For a while, the news became a hot topic on the entire network, and the global media focused on this topic in the news of this day.

After all, Bluestar Technology is currently the number one global IT listed technology company, and it is also among the top three in the global list of listed companies. The Bluestar Technology Group’s Family Bucket users are spread across hundreds of countries and regions around the world. Powerful.

In a sense, in terms of global influence, today's Bluestar Technology and Microsoft are not far behind.

At the same time, the sensitive market also reacted immediately to this emergency. Bluestar Technology Group’s stock fell in response. After-hours trading remained at 240.9 billion U.S. dollars that day, it lost 17.2 billion U.S. dollars in one day and also changed from the original ranking. The world's third listed company fell to fourth place.

If you look at it from the bright side, no matter how you look at it, this time is a major public relations challenge for Bluestar Technology Group, and the market is obviously not optimistic.

Just as the major media were racing to report and the industry was rumored to be uproar, Snowden had secretly arrived in Singapore and had a smooth transfer to HK. The Guardian reporters had arrived at the destination ahead of schedule.

...

Consulate General in New York.

"I don't know if Luo Sheng, a young man, can handle it. We can't help much at this moment."

Consul Peng, who was sitting next to him, sighed: "At this time, we can only look at his resilience. We definitely can't come forward, otherwise it will be unhelpful."

"Yes."

"Hehe, don't worry too much. This young man is extraordinary. As you can see from the day before yesterday, we shouldn't worry about it. Running this roundtable meeting is the focus."

Luo Sheng has now taken his team from New York to Washington, D.C., and has not contacted the local embassy. At this time, the country must not be allowed to come forward, because Lao Mei will use this as an excuse to avoid suspicion. The more you help.

...

After Luo Sheng and his team arrived in Washington, they rested for a while at the local Hilton Hotel, and then went to the Senate of Old America to attend the hearing the next morning.

At around 10 o'clock, a large group of reporters had already gathered at the hearing site. As a business convoy arrived, reporters on the scene immediately swarmed.

When the man in the luxurious business car in the middle walked out, the reporters present frantically pressed the shutter of the camera.

The one who got out of the car was Luo Sheng, the protagonist of this hearing.

FOX and other major North American mainstream media radio and television stations have broadcast live coverage of today's hearing, and all of them are extremely excited.

Not only that, the streaming media BV video website under the Bluestar Technology Group is also conducting live broadcasts, and all major UP hosts can also broadcast it, which gives a sense of letting go.

At this juncture, Bluestar Technology’s approach to processing has surprised many people. They actually do not control the spread of public opinion on their own platform, and let it ferment.

The current situation is that this hearing was also strongly watched by netizens from all over the world. The matter was also discussed on the Reddit forum, and it was pushed to the home page. Google's keyword search index also ranked top.

A series of data all show that this is the hottest topic at the moment, and the attention has surpassed that of the business leaders roundtable that ended yesterday.

At this moment, Luo Sheng is attending today in his iconic IT boss costume. You must know that he attended the round table meeting a few days ago in formal clothes. It stands to reason that this situation today should be attended in serious formal clothes, but He came to the hearing in a T-shirt + jeans.

This is a silent attitude, indicating that he attaches much greater importance to the round table than the hearing that is about to begin at this moment.

it's not a big deal.

In the face of the camera shutter that kept flickering, Luo Sheng unsmilingly entered the hearing site all the way, and all the media reporters flocked to the scene, following closely but keeping a certain distance to keep up.
