"Hello, is this Mr. Chen? There's a problem with our company's equipment. Can I trouble you to … What? You're back in Hua Xia now? " The director had no choice but to call the previous maintenance engineer and ask him to come over and help solve the problem. However, he didn't expect that the other party had already returned to Hua Xia.
Recently, he heard that various companies had been directly cut off by the Daqian, and the Daqian didn't even refund the funds. It seemed that there wasn't much of a problem for them to go home directly.
"Then can you help us solve this problem? It's …" The director could only tell the other party about the problem with the equipment. However, before he could finish, the engineer said directly, "There's no problem with the equipment. We've remotely locked this machine. You can't open it!"
"What!" The director cried out, "You've locked our equipment? How can you do such a thing? You must restore the equipment immediately! "
"It can't be restored!" Unexpectedly, the engineer said bluntly, "It's not just your lithography machine. Now, all the lithography machines sold by the Daqian have been locked."
"In fact, it's not just the lithography machine. We've remotely locked all the industrial equipment. This was an order issued by the chairman himself. The chairman also has the secret key. Unless you have a way to persuade our chairman, no one can lift the lock for you! "
"You're violating the law. You've violated the basic business ethics. You …"
"Don't talk to me about business ethics. Let's not talk about business ethics first. You're the one who directly blocked all the Daqian companies, and it's a global ban. Why can't we block your equipment in turn?"
"In addition, according to the purchase agreement we signed, it clearly states that after the equipment transaction is completed, both parties must maintain a fair and equal transaction. There must not be any violation of the business rules and the contract. Otherwise, the Daqian has the right to directly remotely lock the equipment."
"This time, Intel was the first to respond to the Daqian ban. You're also the first company to support the ban. We've locked all the lithography machines. There's no problem. This is written in the contract!"
"That's it …" After that, the chief engineer hung up the phone directly.
"F * ck!" The director cursed and then called the higher-ups to report. Since the machine was not damaged because of the operation, this matter had nothing to do with him. This matter would be left to the higher-ups of Intel to deal with.

"What? You said that all of Intel's photolithography machines have gone on strike! " That afternoon, as a major shareholder of Intel, Rector Morgan received the news.
"It's not just Intel. Now, except for those countries that haven't banned Daqian products, all the Daqian companies that have bought Daqian equipment in the countries that have banned Daqian products have their equipment remotely locked and can't operate!"
"According to incomplete statistics, I'm afraid that more than 2% of the companies in a certain country will be in a state of suspension. The worldwide ratio is 3%. Although the ratio is not high, these companies are all high-tech companies."
"If we only count high-tech enterprises, then 58% of high-tech enterprises in our country have completely or partially stopped production, and 62% of high-tech enterprises in the world have completely or partially stopped production because the equipment can't work properly!" Slime reported to Rector Morgan.
"This Daqian is so ruthless!" Rector Morgan opened his mouth. "We should be able to crack it by force. With the technology of our country, it shouldn't be impossible to crack the lock of the Hua Xia people!"
"This … really can't be solved!" Slime shook his head with a wry smile.
"That's impossible. It's just a program. At worst, I'll just replace the entire computer host!" Rector Morgan said angrily.
"No, that won't work. According to the rules of these devices, unless there is a Daqian engineer present to unlock it, the connection cable of the computer host is not allowed to be unplugged. Once it is unplugged, the device will immediately start a self-destruct program inside, destroying the core optical components and main equipment, making the device physically unable to work!" Slime said.
"Then I'll just unplug the power supply of the machine and treat it as a power outage. The Daqian won't directly destroy my equipment if the power goes down!" Rector Morgan reacted quickly and immediately thought of a way.
"That won't work either!" Unexpectedly, Slime still shook his head. "It's okay to unplug the power supply, but the self-destruct device is installed with an internal battery. Its power supply is also separately supplied and can last for 20 years. So as long as the connection cable of the host is unplugged, it will still self-destruct."
"Then I'll remove its battery first …"
"The battery is sealed. The sealed part has a touch-proof setting. Once there is any touch or attempt to disassemble it, it will directly self-destruct."
"In addition, none of us can guarantee that there is only one set of batteries. In case the Daqian secretly sealed two sets of batteries and immediately started the other set after removing one set, it will still self-destruct!"
"I … Then can I just ask the hacker to unseal it?"
"This program is encrypted. Once the hacker tries to crack it, it will immediately self-destruct."
"My heavy armor system …"
"The heavy armor system will also self-destruct immediately!"
"I …" Rector Morgan was completely speechless. He cursed, "Those companies are too stupid. Don't they know to disconnect the network first and then use the equipment?"
"It's useless to disconnect the network. This signal is directly connected to the satellite signal in the sky and is controlled through the satellite."
"Then we can build a house that completely isolates all electronic signals and move the equipment in …"
"According to the settings, once the satellite signal is disconnected, the equipment will directly self-destruct. That's why Intel and other companies chose to build factories in the areas with the best satellite signal because they were afraid of encountering such a problem!"
"This … This …" Rector Morgan was completely speechless. This defense system was too comprehensive. It defended against almost all measures, and he couldn't think of any solution to the problem.
"Jia Yapeng is indeed a formidable person. His means of doing things are so shrewd and vicious. How did he come up with such a strict method?" Rector Morgan asked helplessly.
"Actually, this wasn't invented by Jia Yapeng …" Slime said.
"Then who invented it?" Rector Morgan asked.
"It's the Paris Pact!" Slime said with a wry smile. "In order to prevent people from secretly selling advanced equipment to countries like Russia or Hua Xia without permission, they specially designed such a defense system. Once the satellite signal of these equipment appears within a restricted range, it will immediately lock on to the machine and then further self-destruct!"
"It's also because of this system that Russia and Hua Xia were blocked for many years. Until now, many of the high-tech equipment we export to Hua Xia have such a system."
"So this Daqian system has been accumulated and proven through decades of experience. Of course, it's impeccable!"
