Tripp did not hear clearly what the intelligence director said at the beginning, but only heard a few words from aliens. He stood up in shock and asked, "What did you say, aliens invaded!"

The intelligence director said in a heavy tone: "Maybe, the crisis we are facing now is no worse than the alien invasion."

“What the hell happened?”

"A few minutes ago, a virus called 'Aliens' suddenly broke out. I just received a report. It has now affected many cities across the United States. The transportation systems, power systems, water supply systems, and major companies have been seriously affected and have fallen into a state of paralysis. Even CIA and the Pentagon have not been spared, and they are all infected with this virus." The intelligence director said.

Tripp was shocked: "Is the situation so bad?"

"Yes, it's very bad. The specific situation has not been counted yet. However, this computer virus outbreak is more terrifying than every time before, and even the White House was not spared."

Tripp was stunned and quickly turned on the laptop on the desk. The familiar scene disappeared, replaced by a cute green octopus, with a sentence below: "Aliens invade, you have been robbed."

This sentence makes people look so dazzling, and this is ridiculed. Tripp couldn't help but curse "Shet". He said anxiously, "Immediately let someone count the latest situation."

Tripp, Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, Special Adviser, Intelligence General, etc., gathered more than a dozen people in the office, representing the supreme power of the United States is here.

Half an hour later, the new statistics were released. Although these people had expected it, when they saw these numbers, they were still shocked and speechless. Many people's faces were extremely ugly, and some people's hands holding documents were trembling.

The banking industry suffered a heavy blow, with the largest banks in the United States, Citi, Bank of America, American Express, National Bank, JPMorgan Chase, and American Bank

Basically, they have been invaded, and the current bank credit card business is almost impossible to use normally. The main consumption in the United States is credit cards. Now credit cards are no longer available, so it can be basically announced that Americans cannot buy things.

The communications industry has been hit hard, and almost none of the major communications companies in the United States, verizon, atamp;t, sprint and t-mobile, can run away. The current business is almost in a semi-stagnant state.

Traffic has almost stagnated. Several major American airlines, United Airlines, Delta Airlines, American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and American Airlines. All have now cancelled all flights, and the entire air transport network has stopped operating.

There are also many aircraft that can only land manually due to sudden poisoning of the ground command system, and an accident almost occurred. Now all airlines have stopped all navigation. This has affected the United States and greatly affected the aviation business of other countries.

Some international flights are halfway through the flight and return immediately after receiving the notice, and have no choice but to return to the origin.

"Mr. President, our government office network is basically paralyzed. Now we are basically relying on phones, and it is a landline, because the phone may not be able to connect now."

"Mr. President, the water, electricity and transportation in many cities have basically been paralyzed. Although the local government has stepped up the review and rescue, the problem now is that it is almost impossible to restore normal operation without removing the alien virus."

"Mr. President, our Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and futures trading are all forced to stop, and the losses are very serious."

"Mr. President, phone."

"Didn't you see if I'm busy now? No matter who it is, let him wait." Tripp was angry, and there was still no end.

"Mr. President, it's the phone call of the Federal Reserve Chairman."

Trip suddenly became silent, stood up and walked to another room to answer the phone. He walked out after more than ten minutes, his face even worsened.

Tripp stroked the somewhat scattered golden retriever and said in a frustrated tone: "Gentlemen, we have encountered an unprecedented crisis. This computer virus is so terrible that it has destroyed almost one-third of the United States."

"What should we do next? Can anyone give me some advice?"

Just as the White House was discussing how to deal with it, the outside world was also sensational because of the computer virus in the United States. Various news spread overwhelmingly, whether you turn on the TV or the computer, your mobile phone, or almost the headlines, all of them are computer virus news.

"At 2:30 p.m. local time in the United States, a virus called "Alien" broke out in the United States. It is reported that one-third of computers in the United States have been invaded, involving electricity, water conservancy, road transportation, air transportation, offices of various companies, government offices, etc., which have affected the normal work and life of the people. The cute green octopus has become a fearless existence for everyone to talk about."

"The US stock market directly announced a closing and closed due to computer virus invasion. Some experts analyzed that this time the US stock market will suffer losses of no less than tens of billions of dollars, and if it cannot be resolved in a short period of time, the losses will continue to increase."

"Major technology companies and network companies have also been hit by the US technology companies that claim to have the strongest technology, but they are helpless about this virus. There is no preliminary report yet on how it is contagious, how it attacks the system, and what damage it will cause to the computer."

"Some people say that the virus this time is no less than the Spanish flu, a small virus that caused the American giant to fall down directly. This sentence is indeed true. I am in the United States and can personally experience that the entire city is almost in a semi-paralyzed state now."

"More than one of our news agency's office computers has been invaded by viruses. The cute octopus looks a bit creepy now. Is it really an alien invasion?"

"How terrible is a computer virus? If it is in Africa, it may only have a slight impact. If it is in developed areas, this impact is absolutely unbearable. Now that computers have penetrated into every aspect of human society, I suddenly thought that if there is one day when humans really have all computer equipment damaged for some reason, will humans lose their ability to survive."

"A few computer virus outbreaks, the virus is getting worse and worse, and the losses caused each time are getting bigger and bigger."

"The CIH virus broke out in June 1998, with a global loss of about $500 million."

"The Melissa virus that broke out in March 1999 lost $300 million to $600 million."

"In 2000, the iloveyou virus broke out, and the global loss exceeded US$10 billion."

"The codered virus broke out in July 2001, with a global loss of about $2.6 billion."

"The blaster virus broke out in the summer of 2003, with an estimated loss of tens of billions of dollars."

"Big (som), "mydo", "suspension wave (sasser), "panda burning incense (nimaya)"

"The global loss of ransomware that broke out in 2017 is estimated to be around 100 billion US dollars."
