Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 1093 - 687: Tian Yong’s Ambition_2
Chapter 1093: Chapter 687: Tian Yong’s Ambition_2
“Mr. Chu, I have heard that your Longevity Club’s No. 2 Longevity Pill is about to be released? My elderly mother is of quite an advanced age, and has been bedridden for several years now, I wonder if the No. 2 Longevity Pill could make it possible for her to get out of bed again…”
Tian Yong’s voice was exceedingly cautious, and as he spoke, his eyes, sharp like triangles, continuously observed Chu Mo’s expressions, ready to immediately drop the subject the moment he detected any sign of Chu Mo frowning.
Thankfully, Chu Mo showed no sign of displeasure. On the contrary, when the Longevity Pill was mentioned, his eyes brimmed with strong confidence, along with a hint of pride.
After a light breath, Chu Mo with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, slowly began to speak:
“The development of the No. 2 Longevity Pill has been completed to 95%, and it is expected to be released within a maximum of two months, and possibly as soon as within one month. The No. 2 Longevity Pill is an improvement upon the No. 1 Longevity Pill, not only does it enhance efficacy and reduce side effects, it also strengthens the body and improves health.
...
The No. 2 Longevity Pill includes a precious medicinal ingredient, which is the Great Restoration Pill. Mr. Tian must have heard of the Great Restoration Pill, an extremely valuable and rare pill. It can provide Martial Artists with Origin Power and even help them break through in their cultivation; it indeed qualifies as a Healing Holy Medicine. However, the Great Restoration Pill is scarce, with only a few existing in the world. I was able to acquire one of these pills, which I then divided to incorporate into the No. 2 Longevity Pill, hence the significant improvement in its effectiveness with virtually no side effects.
Still, due to the scarcity of the Great Restoration Pill, one pill can only produce twenty No. 2 Longevity Pills, so it will definitely not be mass-produced, nor can it be made available to every club member like the No. 1 Longevity Pill was.
When the time comes, acquiring the No. 2 Longevity Pill will naturally come with a higher price.”
As the words fell from Chu Mo, he suddenly glanced at Tian Yong, and then said with a slight hesitation:
“If I’m not mistaken, Mr. Tian doesn’t seem to be a member of our Longevity Club, right?”
Finally, the topic shifted to the matter of club membership, and the spirited Tian Yong immediately showed a bitter smile, while expressing with a full face of emotion:
“Mr. Chu’s club is just too high-end, and the threshold is also quite high. Although I have been longing to join, with my insufficient status, I have always been left standing outside the door, so dejected!”
At this moment, Tian Yong’s face was full of emotion and bitterness. He knew this was his only chance to join the Longevity Club. If he missed this opportunity, the likelihood of getting close to Chu Mo again was almost a fanciful wish, not because of anything else, but simply because his status was too low. If it wasn’t for Chu Mo needing something this time, he would normally have no qualification to meet with Chu Mo.
While Tian Yong was filled with anxiety and anticipation, Chu Mo, on the other hand, slightly furrowed his brows. Originally, Tian Yong had indeed done him a favor, providing convenience in letting Liu Liu meet her idol, Wang Guangju, and renting a stadium. Although Chu Mo could have managed these himself, it still counted as a favor received. To refuse him outright now might appear ungrateful.
But on the other hand, the Longevity Club had its rules. So far, besides Sun Shangwu, who had a sworn friendship with Chu Mo, no one else had received special privileges to join the club. Chu Mo had no intention of breaking the club’s rules and allowing anyone to join at will. Doing so would be a terrible thing for the entire Longevity Club.
At this juncture, Chu Mo found himself in a dilemma. On one hand, he did not want to come off as someone who kicks away the bridge after crossing the river, taking advantage of someone and then discarding them without acknowledging the debt. On the other hand, he did not want to destroy the rules of the Longevity Club just for Tian Yong, and in doing so, potentially shatter the hard-earned prestige of the club.
While Chu Mo was deep in thought, Tian Yong beside him did not even dare to breathe loudly, knowing that this very moment was critical for his fate in the coming decades. If he was able to join the Longevity Club, it wouldn’t just be about getting the coveted Longevity Pill; the most important aspect was that he would become a member of the Longevity Club. From then on, both his connections and his status would rise substantially.
It must be understood, being able to join the Longevity Club is considered one of the most pride-worthy achievements for all top-tier wealthy individuals worldwide. If a top-tier wealthy individual is not a member of the club, it simply means their status is not quite elite. Similarly, if Tian Yong were to succeed in joining the club, he would obtain even broader connections and a more respected status within.
If he missed this opportunity, given Tian Yong’s situation, it was completely impossible for him to liquidate his shares. In that case, he couldn’t gather the outrageously high membership fee of 15 billion, and naturally, it would be impossible for him to become a member of the Longevity Club in the future.
Thus, at this very moment, a seemingly casual remark by Chu Mo at his side already had the power to determine his entire fate.
And while Tian Yong was anxiously waiting for an answer, Chu Mo slowly began to speak:
“The club’s affairs are usually managed by Yang Xuan, Liang Bing, and Zhang Dongdong. I seldom get involved in the internal affairs of the club. As for recommending candidates, I can’t make arbitrary decisions, and I must consider balancing the interests of all parties.
Director Tian, how about this: you are only being kept out of the club because your assets are slightly short. If you can pull together an investment of 15 billion, your net worth would surpass 100 billion, and you’d meet the requirements of the Longevity Club where you only have to pay an annual membership fee of 10 million…!”
As soon as Chu Mo finished speaking, Tian Yong, who was beside him, responded with a bitter face:
“Mr. Chu, you must be joking. Our Tianhua Entertainment has been established for over 30 years, and the asset accumulation of 85 billion is already the limit for the entire company. Now, the entertainment industry’s resources are saturated, and to further increase investment is as difficult as climbing to the sky!”
At this point, a hint of disappointment flickered in the eyes of Tian Yong. He was well aware that Shi Yuan Entertainment, the number one in the entertainment industry, was Chu Mo’s creation. In all seriousness, Shi Yuan Entertainment and Tianhua Entertainment should be in competition. Tian Yong also understood that Mr. Chu in front of him had no reason to help him.
Just as Tian Yong sighed softly, ready to give up, Chu Mo, who had narrowed his eyes slightly, began to speak slowly:
“I do have an idea, but I’m not sure if Director Tian is willing to part with something.”
Chu Mo’s faint words reignited hope in Tian Yong, who was full of anticipation. However, Chu Mo’s words once again plunged him into the depths of despair.
“15 billion is just a drop in the bucket for me. So, here’s the deal: I would invest 15 billion into your Tianhua Entertainment. Of course, I don’t want any shares of Tianhua Entertainment, Director Tian need not worry about me secretly controlling the company. All you have to do is transfer Wang Guangju from your company to our Shi Yuan Entertainment!…
Director Tian, don’t rush to refuse, let me finish. I am well aware that Wang Guangju is the face of your Tianhua Entertainment and the biggest pillar of your company. Without Wang Guangju, Tianhua Entertainment would be uprooted. However, in exchange, not only would I invest 15 billion in your company, but I would also trade with three top-tier stars: the superstar Wang Tuo, the superstar Li Zhiqiang, and the top-tier actress Su Ling Yun.
Director Tian, 15 billion plus three top-tier superstars, this is enough to compensate for the loss caused by Wang Guangju’s departure. Even more, if you seize this opportunity well, using the 15 billion as start-up capital along with the popularity brought by the three superstars, it’s not impossible for Tianhua Entertainment to grow even further!
Of course, this is just a suggestion. As for the final decision, it’s for Director Tian to think over carefully!”
Amid Chu Mo’s indifferent words, the middle-aged man beside him became incredibly solemn.
