Trillionaire's Slice of Life

The matter concerning Yun Changzai, the second-generation rich, drew to a close; a few days ago, Chu Xiner mentioned that it seemed like he had dropped out of school.

It was unclear whether he'd been frightened or whether his father, Yun Wu, feared he might cause further trouble and directly arranged a leave of absence.

Chu Mo didn't concern himself with the matter and, upon hearing the news, merely sighed slightly before laughing it off.

The chairman of Shi Yuan Entertainment had been replaced by Qin Zixuan, the Harvard-educated double master's holder who had taken assertive action.

Three days after taking the helm, she'd nearly purged all factions previously loyal to the old chairman, and now Qin Zixuan had fully integrated the company.

Of course, the consequence of her actions was that a third of the company's senior management was replaced, and similarly, a large number of newcomers were brought on board.

Qin Zixuan's approach was clearly aggressive, somewhat impatient for quick success, but Chu Mo had said he wouldn't intervene in company matters, so naturally he let her do as she would.

Under her forceful measures, indeed, certain effects were achieved; in merely three days, the company had returned to normal operations.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, Chu Mo received a call from the major star Sun Qing.

She agreed to invest in the company.

This top Hua Country superstar obviously had her own ideas; she wasn't simply seeking ten percent of the company's shares but brought her entire team to join Shi Yuan Entertainment.

Sun Qing had her own company, which included herself, a top-tier superstar, two first-tier artists, and two second-tier artists, valuing the company at six hundred million RMB.

After incorporating her entire company into Shi Yuan Entertainment, Sun Qing would hold ten percent of the shares, and at the same time, Chu Mo needed to invest fifty billion RMB.

This had been agreed upon beforehand, and naturally, Chu Mo had no objections.

Qin Zixuan displayed decisive and ruthless vigor, swiftly bringing Shi Yuan Entertainment onto the right track, and Sun Qing's decision to join the company with her entire team followed.

All of this proceeded as well as could be hoped, and Chu Mo naturally would not go back on his words.

On the afternoon of the fourth day after the takeover, Chu Mo transferred fifty billion to the company, and with money in the company's accounts, the natural next step was expansion and to start achieving results.

Another matter of concern to Chu Mo involved Chu Wen.

Zhao Shuangshuang resigned from her flight attendant job and finally convinced Chu Wen. Chu Mo, of course, wouldn't let the two girls be disadvantaged, so he called Qin Zixuan directly to have her personally make arrangements for the girls.

After signing the contracts that day, they became official employees of Shi Yuan Entertainment. No matter what, they would each have a basic salary of fifty thousand RMB per month, which would allow the two girls to live a more refined life from now on.

With that, Chu Mo felt he'd alleviated some lingering guilt.

Taking advantage of these couple of days, Chu Mo chose a car for Qin Zixuan. Since he had Zhan Bingxue as a reference, the car he picked for Qin Zixuan couldn't be too cheap; otherwise, it might seem like he was playing favorites.

Zhan Bingxue's Aston Martin was priced at forty-seven million, and Chu Mo chose a similarly priced limited edition Bugatti Veyron for Qin Zixuan, with an on-the-road price of over forty-three million.

Then, the more he looked at it, the more Chu Mo liked the Bugatti and decided to order one for himself as well.

At this point, Chu Mo was no longer very concerned about price when looking at cars; as long as the price was over ten million and he liked it at first sight, he didn't hesitate to make the purchase.

When he drove the two Bugattis back to Emperor Xuan Villas, Chu Mo was somewhat worried since Villa No. 1 only had three parking spaces, which were already filled by his Rolls-Royce Phantom and two Bentleys, leaving no space for the Bugatti.

In the end, Chu Mo called Qin Zixuan over and had her drive one Bugatti and one Bentley to the never-used Villa No. 8, thus freeing up a space at Villa No. 1 for his own Bugatti.

With everything settled perfectly, Villa No. 8 also welcomed its new occupant.

Chu Mo had high expectations for Qin Zixuan. He really hoped she would achieve as much as Zhan Bingxue, which is why he had supported her so generously from the beginning.

Shi Yuan Entertainment, valued at fifteen billion, was initially handed over to her. He was even willing to offer ten percent of its shares to bring Sun Qing into the company as her assistant. Following that, Chu Mo immediately invested another fifty billion, all in the hope that she would do even better.

To address her concerns for the future, Chu Mo directly arranged for her to stay in Villa No.8, provided her with a Bugatti worth over forty million RMB and a Bentley, gave her six bodyguards for twenty-four-hour protection, and at the same time, assigned four maids, a chef, a full-time driver, and a butler to the villa.

As a result, there were a total of thirteen people serving her, with a treatment not much less than what Zhan Bingxue received.

Chu Mo spared no expense for her, giving her the very best of everything. As for how far Qin Zixuan could go, that depended on her own abilities and competence.

Once all the matters were handled, Chu Mo realized that he seemed to have nothing else to do.

Every day was a repeat of the one before, waking up promptly at seven-thirty in the morning, practicing culinary skills in the kitchen after breakfast, having a lavish lunch made by himself, and then taking a nap.

In the afternoon, he would swim in the pool or work out in the gym for an hour, take a bath, and then it was time for dinner.

In the evening, he would watch a movie in the home theater on the third floor, and go to sleep punctually at eleven.

That was essentially the end of the day.

Life was monotonous and dull.

However, Chu Mo quite enjoyed this regular post-retirement routine.

His weight had gradually increased, from the original 125 pounds to 130 pounds. What was once an thin figure now sported flesh, and due to exercising, it wasn't just belly fat but healthy and proportionate abs.

Chu Mo had considered getting a myopia correction surgery, but when he saw the stable and elegant look of himself in the mirror wearing gold-rimmed glasses, he felt that it was actually quite good.

Of course, the main reason was that he had been wearing glasses for four or five years; it had already become a habit, and he didn't feel it was an inconvenience, so he dismissed the idea.

The research at Fudan University reported to him almost every few days. It was clear that Dean Lu was a very serious person. He didn't neglect Chu Mo after receiving his money; almost every detail, no matter how small, was communicated to him.

Obviously, such a person was trustworthy, so Chu Mo did not hesitate to send the second phase of investment to Fudan University very promptly.

With the acquisition of the latest equipment from America, the research that had been at a standstill made new progress. After the second batch of investment arrived, Chu Mo received an invitation to the executive training program from Fudan University.

It was Dean Lu who had done the work, hoping that Chu Mo could come to Fudan University for a personal visit and inspection.

This was the other party showing goodwill, and without hesitation, Chu Mo agreed outright.

After gaining five pounds in the villa, accompanied by Li Tingting, Chu Mo entered the gates of Fudan University for the first time.

Li Tingting, as Dean Lu's graduate student, was presented by Chu Mo with a pen worth 190,000 RMB the last time they signed the agreement at the villa.

Meeting again after more than half a month, Chu Mo noticed that the tall and straight girl seemed a bit haggard, with dark circles under her bright eyes.

He suddenly remembered the scene at the villa where she promised to work even harder in the future.

Now it seemed, she had kept her word.

Walking side by side in the beautiful campus of Fudan University, Chu Mo said in a relaxed tone:

"The chef from Ting Yu Pavilion you recommended last time indeed has great skills. His sweet and sour fish wasn't just crispy and delicious, but the flavor was more rich.

I had wanted to ask him for the secret recipe, but he refused to reveal it, no matter what. Our chef at home and I researched it for several days until we figured out that Ting Yu Pavilion used a unique spice when frying the fish…."

After inviting Li Tingting to the villa for lunch, where she commented that his sweet and sour fish tasted a bit off, Chu Mo had specially invited the chef from Ting Yu Pavilion.

After several days of research, they finally created a sweet and sour fish that was not just crispy and delicious, but also richer in flavor.

The girl named Li Tingting, though appearing a bit tired, smiled and replied crisply:

"Next time I have the chance, I'll help you taste the fish to see if it's up to standard; after all, I am a bona fide foodie."
