Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 92: Chapter 090: If Riches Await

```Learning from Bafang International's experience, Chu Mo was a bit more cautious this time when bringing Qin Zixuan to the forefront than the impulsive decision he had made previously.

Initially, Chu Mo only planned to invest and then leave everything to itself, but he ended up wasting a lot of energy on Bafang International.

His proposed plans met with resistance, several sly foxes meddled, and Zhan Bingxue, being the only one in charge, couldn't hold up against them; she was even bullied in a combined effort by others.

In the end, if it weren't for Chu Mo's attitude of taking everyone down with him, all the key positions in Bafang International would have been filled with the spies planted by the four old foxes, and he, as the largest shareholder, would have been completely sidelined.

Therefore, this time, Chu Mo decided to fund the entire venture himself; after all, a hundred million or a billion was just a matter of adding or removing a zero for Chu Mo. Rather than put up with others, he preferred to add an extra zero himself, finding it more comfortable to be the sole decision maker of the company.

Of course, what was different from Bafang International was that the four old foxes had already done all the groundwork for Bafang International. Had they not lacked the funds, Chu Mo wouldn't have had the opportunity to get involved, and Sun Shangwu and his group would have taken over the entire hotel themselves.

So, the Bafang International that Zhan Bingxue took over was essentially one that had already been set on the right track, with all aspects having been smoothed out by Sun Shangwu and his team.

Bafang International was already like a train running on the right track. As long as Zhan Bingxue, the train's conductor, didn't make any fatal mistakes or slam the brakes recklessly, the train should continue to move smoothly and orderly on the right track.

Shi Yuan Entertainment, however, was a completely different situation. Even if Chu Mo forcibly pushed Qin Zixuan to the forefront, for her who knew nothing about the entertainment industry, it was like being in the dark.

Shi Yuan Entertainment was acquired through various means by Chu Mo, with unstable morale within the company. Qin Zixuan, as the chairwoman, was even less decisive than Zhan Bingxue.

You must understand that before following Chu Mo, Zhan Bingxue was already a regional manager at Tianxia Real Estate, managing a leadership team of about two hundred people.

While Qin Zixuan was merely a double master's graduate from Harvard University, with virtually no management experience. On top of that, she was surrounded by a mess with no one to guide her, and the outcome was already predictable.

Although Chu Mo was wealthy and didn't care about failing once or twice, he couldn't intentionally test failure. Therefore, finding a powerful ally for Qin Zixuan was one of the solutions Chu Mo thought of.

As for the reason for choosing Sun Qing...

When Chu Mo visited the Green Lane the previous time, seeing Sun Qing and Zhan Bingxue jogging side by side gave him some ideas.

Naturally, another reason for choosing Sun Qing was that she already owned an entertainment company.

Sun Qing's company, named Sunny Entertainment, not only had Sun Qing herself, a top-tier star, but also two first-tier and two second-tier artists. Although the company wasn't big, Sunny had managed it successfully as evident by her ability to purchase Emperor's Mansion Villa Number One a few years ago, which spoke to her financial strength.

With the personal relationship between Zhan Bingxue and Sun Qing and, considering Chu Mo's appreciation for her top-notch connections and management skills, that was why he had come over early in the morning.

Naturally, for a top star like Sun Qing, ordinary promises and benefits wouldn't excite her, as she already owned an entertainment company with a personal net worth of over ten billion. A Shi Yuan Entertainment with a similar market value wouldn't catch her eye.

At this point, if Chu Mo didn't offer some tangible benefits, she wouldn't be interested.

If she agreed to join Shi Yuan Entertainment, then the company would be secured, and the promised fifty billion would be immediately transferred.

Similarly, as long as Sun Qing and Qin Zixuan could achieve results and give Chu Mo hope, he wouldn't mind increasing the investment.

Cultivating his own entertainment empire wouldn't be just a dream.

Of course, all this was predicated on Sun Qing's agreement. If she refused, Chu Mo wouldn't bother with Shi Yuan Entertainment anymore.

An investment of over ten billion would just be left for Qin Zixuan to mess around with. As for the end result, Chu Mo figured he'd have forgotten about it a year or two later.

Of course, to say he had any designs on Sun Qing...

Being hailed as the number one goddess of Hua Country's entertainment circle, aside from those who were too indifferent, any man would have thoughts about her; it was perfectly normal.

However, Chu Mo had no intention of adding her to his harem.

Women in the entertainment industry, whether they were genuinely virtuous or had seen countless people, Chu Mo's attitude was that a brief romance was possible, but strictly limited to a one-night encounter. As for any future emotional entanglements, he wouldn't consider them at all.

If Chu Mo was truly interested in top-notch beauty, he could've pursued Zhou Yuanyuan, whose looks didn't fall short of Sun Qing's.

Simply put, Zhou Yuanyuan's youth and lack of experience made her seem naive and simple, lacking the mature allure that Sun Qing possessed.

```

```

But once she reached a certain age and had some experience, Zhou Yuanyuan would definitely be no less impressive than Sun Qing.

And the reason why Chu Mo, despite his fondness for Zhou Yuanyuan, didn't want to spend time pursuing her, had to do with his own personality.

Chu Mo was somewhat of a slacker, content with getting by, and even the unlimited card hadn't changed that. His schemes were always go-with-the-flow, and the recent one was due to Yun Changzai's involvement.

If it weren't for all the complicated issues, Chu Mo would probably still be lounging in his villa, serviced by maids, and too lazy to even step out.

Winning Zhou Yuanyuan's heart... the difficulty would be no less than running a marathon.

Zhou Yuanyuan's family was worth at least tens of billions, surrounded by various talented young men; younger than Chu Mo, got it, more handsome than Chu Mo, got it, wealthier than Chu Mo—or at least more financially capable than he showed—got it.

With her solid family assets and her enchanting looks, Zhou Yuanyuan was like a walking magnet, the focus of attention everywhere she went.

For her, Chu Mo might at best be considered a brother of her dormitory roommate? Or maybe a somewhat interesting friend?

In any case, to truly win over Zhou Yuanyuan would require one hundred percent effort, racking one's brain, to have some hope.

However, Chu Mo's current desire was to enjoy life, to bask in the comfort of being the center of attention. Where did he have the mood to be just another suitor among many for Zhou Yuanyuan?

Of course, if one day he took a sudden interest, and Zhou Yuanyuan was still single by then, Chu Mo might indulge in some romance, to see if he could touch the goddess's heart.

But that was a matter for the future, not for now.

"Mr. Chu, Ding Xiaoni, Liu Zihao, Zhao Xiaowan, and Sun Nana have agreed to terminate their contracts with Shi Yuan Entertainment.

We have already reached out to four members of the Shi Yuan Entertainment board...

Also, we've found evidence that the chairman of Shi Yuan, Yun Wu, has embezzled company funds and are currently collecting evidence..."

Inside the courtyard of Emperor's Mansion Villa Number One, Chu Mo, who was practicing backstroke in the huge swimming pool, suddenly sank to the bottom.

In Qin Zixuan's slightly worried expression on the side, Chu Mo burst out of the water after a minute, gasping for air. After a while, once his breathing eased, Chu Mo spoke nonchalantly:

"From now on, you and Zhan Bingxue take care of Shi Yuan Entertainment's matters. You two can decide on such trivial matters on your own unless it's something you really can't decide on, then come find me.

I've said before, I won't get involved in any company matters. What results you can achieve, it's all up to you."

By the poolside, the woman wearing rimless glasses, radiating an intellectual aura, nodded earnestly and respectfully said:

"Mr. Chu, I understand what to do."

Chu Mo waved his hand, watching her sit in her Bentley and leave, then got out of the pool and took the towel from the maid to dry his hair while instructing Danny at his side:

"Arrange a dedicated car for Miss Qin. Also, have Jiang Tao arrange a personal bodyguard detail for her protection, set up like Zhan Bingxue's—three men and three women, one male and one female per shift, three shifts for twenty-four-hour protection."

Hearing this, Danny beside him nodded respectfully.

"Okay, Mr. Chu, I'll go arrange it now."

Chu Mo walked toward the living room, intending to take a shower in the bathroom, when a maid suddenly approached with his phone in hand.

"Mr. Chu, you have an unread text message."

Taking the phone from her hand, Chu Mo tapped it open and started walking towards the bathroom when he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Old Mo, what happened to 'don't forget each other when we come into wealth'?"

The only person who would address him like that was his old classmate Li Fei.

The one brother who, if Chu Mo were ever in a tough spot, would be the only one able to fork out more than ten thousand to support him.
