Chapter 54: Cybertron Studio (Part 2) (kneeling, receiving, rewarding)
After tidying up his outfit in front of the mirror, Sun Cheng nodded with satisfaction.
The casual suit he wore was prepared for his business a few months ago. Sun Cheng still clearly remembers the experience of saving money for more than a month in order to buy a decent suit for himself.
Nandu, which is entering mid-April, can already feel the heat, but despite this, he must wear a suit to go out today, because after a brief wait, Apple's email reply finally came.
An arc couldn't help but bend out of the corner of his mouth, and a feeling called "Cherish" was also on Sun Cheng's face.
After all, he is a normal-minded young man. This time, with the many loopholes in the iOS system he has in his hands, Apple, a giant that is definitely among the top ten companies in the world, couldn't wait to ask him for contact information. Even when he learned that he was in Nandu, the headquarters of the Chinese branch, he immediately arranged a vice president of the company to meet him.
How can this not make Sun Cheng feel very proud?!
After carefully cleaning up, he took out a brand new USB flash drive and put it in his pocket. Then he locked the door and prepared to go out.
Not far from leaving the dormitory building, Sun Cheng saw a familiar face when he saw him. The man was delighted and hurried over.
"Acheng, is this going out?"
The person who came was named Lu Lan, who was also one of Sun Cheng's classmates and creditors.
Sun Chengxun looked at him and recognized who it was. He couldn't help but smile. He nodded and asked, "Old Lu, it's almost the end of the month. Are you here to ask me for money? I made an appointment with an investor and meet him later. If you don't have a hurry, come to my dormitory tomorrow. If you are more anxious, I will give you two thousand to you first when I come here in the evening."
In order to start a business, he really owed a lot of foreign debts, including a few classmates who had played well in the past.
However, since there have been continuous problems in the entrepreneurial projects, some gossips are inevitably whispering in the class, which makes many people neglect their relationship with him.
So, seeing that the return from Apple was about to arrive, thinking that the money would not be able to escape, Sun Cheng did not wait for him to speak and directly determined the debt repayment in advance.
This generous attitude obviously made Lu Lan stunned. He hesitated for a moment before asking: "Acheng, isn't your entrepreneurial project going bad? If you don't have money for the time being, just give it to me later, so as not to be embarrassed!"
Sun Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly. In the real world, he announced the disbandment of the entrepreneurial team the day before yesterday, and it spread so quickly. It seems that many people behind him fanned the flames.
After thinking about it, he asked tentatively: "Is it 6 Lei? Huo Miao? or what Liu Kun told you?"
6 Lei, Huo Miao, Liu Kun, and Sun Cheng himself are the four starters of his entrepreneurial projects. The former two are also classmates with Lu Lan and they already know each other. As for Liu Kun, although Sun Cheng's roommate, they also often meet Lu Lanshi. Maybe they are not as familiar as them, but they must know each other.
Lu Lan really didn't hide it from him. Maybe he didn't think it was nothing at all. "I met Liu Kun last night, and I heard from him!"
Sun Cheng bent his mouth and said intently, but he was not going to mention the matter more to him.
"Liu Kun left the entrepreneurial team half a month ago. He doesn't know about our specific situation. This is what I'm in a hurry now. If you are worried, just go directly to the door of my dormitory in the afternoon. Oh, by the way, don't call me. I fell the phone the afternoon before yesterday and am still repairing it!"
After all, he was a classmate. He said this part of the film. Even if Lu Lan had concerns, he would not say anything more. He nodded immediately. He neither responded to the time, but he did not refuse. It seemed that he believed the rumors.
After Sun Cheng finished speaking, he no longer delayed. After saying goodbye to him, he quickly walked towards the school gate and stopped a taxi at the door, which soon disappeared.
The meeting with Apple and others was arranged by the other party in the Jiangning area where Sun Cheng was located. This was a cheaper one. He only took less than twenty to get a taxi and arrived at the place. It was a very unique cafe.
"Sir, how many of you are..."
As soon as he arrived at the place, a waiter came forward. Sun Cheng nodded slightly, "I have an appointment. Where is the private room of 3o13?"
"Please follow me..."
Following the waiter, he went all the way to the private room on the third floor. He quickly saw 3o13, hurriedly thanked the waiter, and walked over.
After taking a deep breath, Sun Cheng knocked on the door.
"Squeak!"
The door of the private room was quickly opened, and a thin middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked out.
When it seemed that Sun Cheng, his eyes lit up and he asked before Sun Cheng could speak: "Can you be Mr. Sun Cheng from [Cybertron Studio]?"
[Cybertron Studio] is the ID used when Sun Cheng reported a vulnerability last time, but just yesterday, he changed the name from the Bureau of Commerce and changed the original "cross studio" to Cybertron.
Sun Cheng knew the brand quite well. He only judged from the other party's outfit and temperament that was probably less than five digits, and the thin middle-aged man with his face might be in a high position in Apple.
But his mentality was adjusted better than he thought. He smiled slightly, nodded and replied, "It's me..."
The middle-aged man reached out and shook him, and smiled and said, "No wonder they say 'one generation is better than the next.' Mr. Sun Cheng has such profound computer technology at a young age. At this age, I am still worried about my graduation thesis at MIT!"
Although he heard him mention the famous American school in MIT, Sun Cheng did not respond much.
Although he is a famous European and American university, his [Nandu University of Technology] is also a top university in China. He may not be worse than others. Sun Cheng still has this pride.
After a slight pause, the middle-aged man immediately said, "I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Liu Qingmin, vice president of Apple China branch!"
I didn't expect that he was really a big shot!
After introducing himself, Liu Qingmin warmly greeted him into the private room.
As soon as Sun Cheng walked in, he immediately felt several gazes falling on him.
When I looked closely, it turned out that there were two men and one woman sitting in the private room. Except for the woman wearing professional attire and black-framed glasses, who were still very young, the four men looked over thirty years old.
After entering the private room, Sun Cheng had just sat down, and Liu Qingmin introduced him: "Let me introduce it briefly. These two are vulnerability detectors in our company, and this is our legal counsel. Miss Chen Wei! Although this may be a bit abrupt, I would like to ask Mr. Sun Cheng first, do you [Cybertron Studio] still hold some vulnerabilities in our company's iOS system?"
"really!"
Sun Cheng nodded and stopped talking.
He knew what the iOS system he had in his hands meant to Apple, so he could sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and wait for the storm to be on the other hand.
Sure enough, Apple can't sit still.
Seeing that he was very mature in character, I had to speak out: "Thank you again and your studio for your support for our Apple company. It was not convenient to discuss in detail in the email before. We have not yet told you the rewards for the previously reported loopholes."
Sun Cheng's ears moved, which was indeed his most concerned issue at the moment.
Fortunately, Liu Qingmin didn't stifle his appetite. He nodded to the legal counsel Chen Wei next to him, and took out a document from the briefcase he carried with him and handed it over.
Sun Cheng took it and saw that it was an agreement.
Although the agreement is only two short pages, after reading the word in detail, a few minutes have passed.
After reading it, he put the agreement back on the desktop. Although Sun Cheng could not see much changes on his face, he was still very satisfied with the agreement.
The rewards given to him by Apple are not generous, but they are quite authentic. As long as he promises to sign the agreement with a confidentiality period of half a year, they will immediately pay Sun Cheng a total of 20,000 yuan in cash, which is about 3,000 US dollars, which is much more than he expected.
However, although satisfied, Sun Cheng felt that he should fight for him again. He said immediately: "I have no objection to other aspects, but the confidentiality period of half a year is too long. Most of the loopholes we have appeared are just remote, and it is hard to say when others will appear! You will be held accountable at that time. We, a studio like ours, cannot afford your accountability."
"Mr. Sun, this..."
Just as Apple's legal counsel Chen Wei was about to argue, she was interrupted by Liu Qingmin next to her.
He pondered for a moment, then nodded and compromised: "Yes, the confidentiality period is shortened to three months!"
Sun Cheng glanced at him in surprise, obviously not expecting that the other party would make concessions so easily.
The three-month confidentiality period is almost over, Sun Cheng thought about it and nodded, "If it is three months, it is acceptable!"
Chen Wei immediately took out another blank document from the briefcase that was not filled in the disputed part, and after making a slight change, he handed it over and said, "Please sign these blank places on the document and provide me with a bank account. I will transfer the bonus to the account provided by Mr. Sun within five minutes!"
After Sun Cheng immediately did as he did, Chen Wei quickly took out an Apple laptop and transferred 20,000 yuan of cash from his financial account to the bank card he provided.
Although he only glanced at her transfer a few times, Sun Cheng felt that such a huge Apple company would not be able to deceive himself for this little money. So when the other party prompted him, his tense nerve line immediately sootheed.
Liu Qingmin obviously understood the principle of struck while the iron is hot. With this cooperation foundation, he spoke up and went straight to the point.
He only heard him say, "I wonder if you can talk to us about other loopholes?"
"Yes!" Sun Cheng replied very simply. Obviously, the cheerfulness he showed before made him very satisfied with Apple.
Take out the newly bought 2g USB flash drive from my pocket, and Sun Cheng handed it to him, "There are thirty-one iOS loopholes in it, including my current process and detailed analysis..."
When they heard that there were so many people from Apple, all their faces changed slightly.
Liu Qingmin thanked him, took the USB flash drive and handed it to the two testers he brought. He saw them plug the USB flash drive into the computer and opened it for a while, and then checked several Apple phones for the same device.
The whole process lasted for more than half an hour, and good news continued.
"The first vulnerability is confirmed, the same as the current 'dFgh-1562-6584' in the head office!"
"The second vulnerability is true, there is no problem with the process verification!"
“…”
The two technicians have been constantly testing reports, and the loopholes provided by him have been constantly confirmed to exist.
But beyond Sun Cheng's expectations, Liu Qingmin, the vice president of Apple, who had been paying attention to the progress of testing, looked at Sun Cheng from time to time, and his eyes became brighter and brighter, and his smile became stronger and stronger. He took the initiative to chat with him.
"Mr. Sun Cheng and your Excellency's [Cybertron Studio] really give us Chinese people a face. You don't know. There have been very few bugs in our Chinese branch in recent years, and they have been ridiculed by the technical team at the headquarters for this reason..."
"I'm older than you, and I'll be closer when I call you, little brother!"
"Oh? The little brother turned out to be a top student in Nangong..."
"I wonder how many people are there in you [Cybertron Studios]? Are you interested in working in our Apple company? With your skills, I guarantee that the annual salary is more than 100,000 yuan, which is really easy..."
The other party's recruitment was so enthusiastic that Sun Cheng couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to flatly refuse: "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your kindness. Our members of [Cybertron Studios] are all college students of Nangong. The reason for this studio is to bring everyone with dreams together to start a business together, so I can only say sorry to you..."
Liu Qingmin was still a little unwilling to give up and patiently advised: "Little brother, you should know that although the prospects for entrepreneurship are good, the risks should not be underestimated. It is not possible to succeed with technology. After I graduated from college, many classmates and friends have joined the tide of entrepreneurship in Silicon Valley, but few have succeeded..."
Sun Cheng just smiled and nodded, but he didn't agree with it at all.
He is now in a strange adventure and his future achievements are limitless, so how could he go to work for others?
Liu Qingmin wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw that he was firm in his attitude, he could only sigh in secret, but he still left room for future recruitment: "Forget it, I wish you success in starting a business with little brothers. Of course, if you figure it out in the future, you can also contact me at any time, and our Apple door will always be open for you..."
Although Sun Cheng disagreed, he still exchanged contact numbers with him.
And here, two Apple inspectors who had been busy for a long time finally completed the detection of the last vulnerability.
When the words "The last vulnerability has been detected, it is confirmed that the problem exists", all the sights in the private room fell on Sun Cheng again.
Facing the eyes of several people, he smiled gently.
Sun Cheng knew that he wanted Yang Fan to set sail in the real world!
