"How did you know?" Seeing Hao Jianguo standing in front of this Statue of Liberty, Andy Rubin could no longer maintain his composure. He looked at Hao Jianguo with immense surprise, not understanding how the other party had found him!
"You're really good at hiding things. Who would have thought you'd hide the item here!" Hao Jianguo exclaimed, "If our people hadn't noticed that you were donating to the police station every month, making it so strange, we wouldn't have started paying attention to this place!"
"Is it strange to donate to the police every month?" Andy Rubin turned to Officer Tang Ke and asked.
"Ahem, Mr. Andy, you are the first entrepreneur in many years who has donated to the police station every month. We originally thought you were a genuinely concerned entrepreneur for city safety. We never expected you to use our police station as a place to hide your things!" Officer Tang Ke said with great emotion.
"This statue was donated by you to the police station 18 months ago, wasn't it!" Hao Jianguo said calmly, "From that month onwards, you almost personally came to the police station every month to donate money or supplies."
"At first, I didn't think there was anything wrong. It was only when I couldn't find it anywhere else that I started to think, what place would be absolutely safe and completely overlooked by opponents?"
"After much thought, it had to be the police station. Hide the drive in the statue, and then donate the statue to the police station. This way, the statue would be placed directly in the police station lobby, and probably no one would dare to steal it!"
"As for why you came to the police station every month to donate, I think it's because you needed to update the technical data in the statue every month!"
"You just need to spend a day each month summarizing all the technical achievements of that month, then replace the drive in the statue on the same day, and finally delete all data from other places.
This way, this useful but dangerous list would only be with you for less than half an hour each month, and it would be in a place like the police station where no one would dare to ambush or steal from you. Therefore, your risk could be minimized to the lowest level. No one would have imagined that you would hide such an important list in a Statue of Liberty!"
As he spoke, Hao Jianguo walked directly to the statue, held the torch in the Statue of Liberty's hand, and gently twisted a subtle pattern on the torch. The torch then opened, revealing a secret compartment.
"Well, Mr. Andy, do you have anything to say now?" Hao Jianguo asked with a smile.
"Heh heh!" Andy Rubin suddenly smiled, "President Hao, I really don't understand what you mean, because I don't need to explain anything!"
"I admit that there is indeed a secret compartment design in this statue, but this is just a little whim of the designer, and it has nothing to do with me. This secret compartment itself will not have any impact. If you don't believe me, look, is there anything else in this secret compartment?" As he said this, Andy Rubin smiled brilliantly, feeling lucky in his heart.
In fact, just three days ago, a drive was still quietly lying in that secret compartment. After reaching an agreement with Goldman Sachs, three days ago, his relative Anna personally took the hidden drive from the case and then applied for a patent for all the technology on the drive in her own name. Now, it is estimated that the patent application has already been submitted to the patent committee.
Therefore, the secret compartment is now empty, with nothing inside. Andy Rubin had won this round again. Although it was by chance, he was still the victor.
"Alright, gentlemen, you can let me go, otherwise I will sue you back!" Andy Rubin said with a smile. He thought that these police officers would obediently let him go, but he didn't expect that in the next second, these police officers completely restrained Andy Rubin. He even felt a cold pair of handcuffs placed on him.
Because at this moment, in the secret compartment which was clearly emptied, Hao Jianguo suddenly took out a drive and then smilingly showed this cute little thing to Andy Rubin.
"Impossible! There can't be anything inside!!" Andy Rubin screamed, completely losing his composure this time, "It's fake, this drive must be fake. You hid it in your hand to frame me. I don't know why this thing is there!"
"Whether it's yours or not, a fingerprint check will tell!" Hao Jianguo squinted his eyes and said, "If this thing is really me framing you, then this drive will only have my fingerprints and no fingerprints of yours."
"So, all that's needed is to do a fingerprint analysis on the outside of this drive and see how many fingerprints there are, and it will be very clear!"
"Of course, a fingerprint analysis isn't even necessary. As long as the data inside this drive is read, it will be immediately discovered that all this data comes from our computers and equipment. It's technology developed by our company, but now it mysteriously appears in this small statue, and our President Mr. Andy Rubin has solemnly assured us that Android Company has never developed this technology. This is the real ironclad evidence!"
"Officer Tang Ke, this piece of evidence is for you!" Hao Jianguo finally handed the evidence to Officer Tang Ke. The officer solemnly accepted this crucial piece of evidence and finally said with a playful smile, "Mr. Andy, it seems I have to ask you to stay with us for a while to cooperate with our investigation!"
At this moment, Andy Rubin was completely silent. His eyes were bulging, as if he still couldn't believe that his drive had been found on the spot.
"She betrayed me, this bitch, it must be her who betrayed me!" After thinking for a while, Andy Rubin found his answer. He shouted angrily.
It must have been Anna, this bitch, who betrayed him. She never took the drive, or she took the drive and put it back?
But why, why would she betray him? There was no reason, nor any benefit!
Andy Rubin's mind was in a mess. He suspected everyone, but he never suspected that Goldman Sachs might have sold him out. Because in Andy Rubin's opinion, Goldman Sachs would absolutely not do such a thing. If this were the case, all the technical lists would return to Jiangnan Group, and they would lose the opportunity to get their hands on the brand-new device and industry of PT, a market worth hundreds of billions, even trillions of dollars. Goldman Sachs would never betray him!
Andy Rubin entered the police station filled with suspicion, and then he never left prison for the rest of his life. After all, neither Jiangnan Group nor Goldman Sachs wanted this guy to ever get out, so naturally, he could only stay inside for a lifetime.
After Andy Rubin was taken in, Hao Jianguo first reported his work to Boss Huang, and then he immediately appeared before the head of Goldman Sachs, whom Andy Rubin thought would never betray him.
"Sir, the plan went very smoothly. I'm afraid Andy Rubin can't even imagine that it was we who put the drive back after getting it! We also found the drive for Jiangnan Group!" Hao Jianguo said with a smile.
In fact, Andy Rubin's idea for hiding things was indeed brilliant. Hao Jianguo would have put in Herculean effort and still wouldn't have guessed that the thing would be in a statue at the police station.
If it weren't for Andy Rubin's girlfriend revealing the location herself and then deducing the entire hiding process, Hao Jianguo would probably have been deceived for a lifetime.
"Heh heh, some people think they are hunters, but they don't know they are just prey!" The old man chuckled coldly and then instructed his secretary, "Let this guy stay in prison for a few years. After everyone forgets about him, don't give anyone a chance to remember him!"
"Yes!" The secretary nodded. Under Goldman Sachs' arrangement, Andy Rubin, the inventor of Android, had his fate decided so simply.
"How is it going with the Patent Committee?" the old man continued to ask.
"No problem. The Patent Committee has received our patent documents and has also entered them into the review database at the fastest speed. As long as we give a signal, the review can be completed immediately, and then publicly announced to society!"
"Before that, these patents will be hidden in the review database, and outsiders will not be able to see any information about these data."
"At the same time, I have also checked this database and found no relevant patent review data submitted by Jiangnan Group. Even if Jiangnan Group submits the relevant data to the committee for review by hand now, they will still be behind us. They have no chance of winning!" the secretary said calmly, directly snatching away the results that Jiangnan Group had spent several hundred million dollars and several years on.
"Very good!" The old man nodded and then said to the secretary, "Go and call that person from Google. I want to talk to him personally. This time, this kid is a bit out of control. I need to personally rein him in, otherwise, I can't confidently hand over this project to him."
That's right, in the old man's plan, the cooperation partner for Android from beginning to end was not Android itself, but Google. Because Goldman Sachs had gradually acquired more than 30% of Google's shares, becoming its largest shareholder.
First of all, Google indeed had the ability to operate Android well, which was something Goldman Sachs, as an investment bank, did not possess. In fact, Goldman Sachs had never operated any company well; this had been proven over 120 years.
