Chapter 32: The Global Black Hat Competition

  (Thanks for the reward from "Unknown"! Bowing!) After turning on the computer, Feng Xiaotian took a look at the already perfected paternal program. Although the computer screen was full of garbled code, Feng Xiaotian read it with great interest. Facing his masterpiece that had consumed all his heart and soul, Feng Xiaotian's heart was instantly filled with a sense of accomplishment.

  The paternal program is presented in a web-like distribution, just like the human nervous system. If it weren't for Feng Xiaotian himself, if someone else saw this, they might think it was meaningless scribbles.

  Feng Xiang Tian watched for a while, his heart was excited, and then he turned off the paternal program. He immediately began to build the maternal program.

  Unlike patrilineal programs, matrilineal programs are much more difficult to build, which is certainly for a reason. By comparing the two programs, you can understand the differences between them.

  First, let's look at the paternal program. The content in this program is the most basic life philosophy, including human behavioral moral standards, methods for dealing with people and things, and the main framework of human thought. These contents sound very simple, but writing them is extremely difficult. They involve many philosophical aspects, which means that one needs to have a deep knowledge reserve after reading extensively, and it's unlikely that others can achieve this point.

  Feng Xiaotian loved reading and learning. At the age of ten, he had already read a book called "The Close Connection between Western Philosophical Thought and Human Ideological Transformation". This book belonged to a relatively profound philosophical category. Although Feng Xiaotian didn't fully understand it, he could still draw some inspiration from its principles. Therefore, when writing his paternal program, he incorporated some of the content from this book into it.

  In addition, there are other philosophical ideas, including the thinking deposits of China over thousands of years, which he has not let go. Human beings are originally a contradictory community, and the collision of various ideas is still very intense today. If you want to create an intelligent program similar to human thinking, you naturally want to make the two as similar as possible. Feng Xiaotian can do his best to perfect it, some things may be useless to it, but at least let it know that these things exist.

  Compared with patrilineal programs, matrilineal programs are more special because they involve things that no formula can solve - emotions.

  The biggest difference between humans and machines is that humans have emotions, and emotions are something that no one has been able to fully understand since the dawn of humanity. It's a highly uncertain and abstract thing, with kinship, friendship, and love intertwined, ultimately making humans a unique species.

  Feng Xiao Tian was only fifteen years old, and due to his age and experience, he only understood some parts of it, so at this moment, facing the computer made him a bit hesitant.

  After sitting stupidly for more than half an hour, Feng Xiaotian let out a long sigh and said, "It seems that we can only take it one step at a time for now."

  After saying that, Feng Xiao Tian began to take action. Just like the web-like structure of the paternal program, he still chose a web-like structure when writing the maternal program.

  Feng Xiaotian took action, inputting the two Chinese characters "love" and "hate" at the core of the program. These two words are completely opposing sides, and all human emotions are built on these two points. After entering these two words, Feng Xiaotian began to perfect the extended meaning of these two words.

  After busying himself for more than three hours, Feng Xiaotian had only written a little bit of content. There was no way around it - it wasn't that he didn't want to speed up, but the maternal program was just too difficult.

  The sky outside had gradually darkened, and Feng Xiao Tian stopped working with his hands. After a long sigh, he got up and took out the vegetable basket. Meals still needed to be eaten; otherwise, where would he get the energy to do things?

  At eight o'clock in the evening, Feng Xiaotian sat back in front of the computer after dinner. This time he faced the computer screen without any distractions. After sitting dry for a while, Feng Xiaotian simply closed the writing interface and directly entered the internet.

  Feng Xiao Tian deeply understands the principle of "haste makes waste". Since there's no inspiration at present, it's better to relax and maybe after seeing the outside world, inspiration will burst out like a fountain.

  Feng Xiaotian accessed the internet through a military computer, sending out a port access request. After a moment, his application was approved. Just like last time, Feng Xiaotian continued to browse various information in the vast ocean of the internet.

  This is actually his second time entering the Internet, since he first entered the Internet and had a conflict with a hacker, Feng Xiaotian has not entered here again. The reason is simple, because he thinks the Internet is not safe. Feng Xiaotian entered through the military's computer, if he encounters another hacker and this matter is discovered, how can he bear the consequences?

  Later, Feng Xiao Tian set out to perfect the loopholes in the computer system and developed corresponding countermeasures against different hacking attack modes. He originally wanted to test whether his own program was effective, but later due to the start of school and the dropout wave that occurred at school, plus the writing of artificial intelligence programs, he didn't have time to do this until now, when he finally had time to enter the Internet for the second time.

  Feng Xiaotian was browsing various information on the internet, and soon he saw a very special message: "The Global Hacker Competition will start at 9:00 am on March 27th. This is the largest hacker event of the year and the stage for the world's top hackers to show off their skills."

  The message appeared in a prominent position on The New York Times website, and Feng Xiaotian saw it at a glance, and then he started thinking.

  For the hacking competition, Feng Xiaotian still has some understanding. In the hacker community, this kind of competition is called "Black Hat Competition". Almost all hackers are not seen in public, and the term "black hat" here refers to "covering one's face so as not to be seen by others". In the eyes of most people, hackers are an extremely mysterious group, and hackers themselves also think so. Therefore, at any time, hackers always prioritize covering up their true identity as the top priority. A hacker exposed in the sunlight is basically equivalent to a useless person, who is not threatening. This is simply unbearable pain for hackers.

  The time on the computer screen in the lower right corner was March 28th, 8:45 PM. According to the time difference between China and the US, there were only a few minutes left before the hacking competition began. As the saying goes, "it's not about being early, but about being timely", Feng Xiaotian thought for just one minute before deciding to participate in this competition. The reason was simple: he wanted to test his skills and see where he stood in the hacker world!
