With this money, I will build a research laboratory, summon the world’s top scientists, solve all their concerns, and let these top scientists concentrate on their research.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The second phase of investment will be between two hundred and five hundred billion; during this stage, I will fully support the scientists in their experiments and provide them with various research materials; and the third installment of investment will not be less than the sum of the first two.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My idea is, even if we can’t find a way to endlessly extend life, at the very least, we should be able to increase the lifespan of the entire human race by five to ten years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For this goal, even if it costs a trillion, it is worth it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Mo’s eyes radiated confidence and calm; he was not one to make empty boasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he speaks of such matters, it is because he intends to undertake them with a grand gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve heard that Mr. Chu has a hundred billion in one card, but even so, isn’t that goal of a trillion quite far off?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How about this, Mr. Chu, you as the leader issue a financing invitation to the entire upper circle of Magic Capital; with your one hundred billion as the foundation, there should be many interested in this project. Others aside, I’m willing to contribute a billion or eight hundred million to Mr. Chu’s research.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The speaker was Fan Zhijian, whose elderly family members were advanced in age, so he genuinely hoped that Chu Mo would immediately embark on the research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Fan Zhijian finished speaking and before Chu Mo could respond, Cao Renyi immediately added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I believe with Mr. Chu’s reputation, he wouldn’t fool us old men with such matters. Alright then, if Mr. Chu truly has the intention to conduct this kind of research, I am willing to contribute fifty billion to it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the old man finished speaking, Chu Mo suddenly waved his hand, disregarding the puzzled expressions of the two men before him, his face earnest as he spoke seriously:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I appreciate your sentiments, but my research does not accept any donations or funding; the entire research cost will be borne by me alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trillion is only a hypothetical number; the actual amount will be determined through practice. You don’t have to worry about me running short of funds; since I proposed this idea, I naturally have the confidence to bear all the research costs.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused briefly, his tone shifting slightly, his expression becoming a bit more solemn:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You both should know that I’ve not been in Magic Capital for long, my foundations are shallow, and connections are my greatest weakness. I have ample idle funds at my disposal but lack the necessary connections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting up a world-class research lab is an immature idea of mine. I am willing to front the money for it, but I lack the contacts to invite those top scientists. On this matter, I need a few pointers from you both.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Zhijian spread his hands helplessly and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Chu, I really can’t be of help with this. If you needed a bodyguard to ensure your family’s safety, I’d be the first to volunteer, but when it comes to finding Nobel Prize scientists, I’m powerless. However… haha, I might not be able to assist, but our friend Cao here is indeed an expert in this field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao’s Star Moon Technology already has a host of top scientists, and while their research fields differ, these top scientists have their own channels of communication. With just a word from Cao, what kind of person couldn’t he bring to you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Mo turned his gaze toward the older man before him, Cao Renyi, whose hair had already turned half white, and gently nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Chu refuses donations, and we can’t help in that regard, but I will do my utmost to assist with the invitations.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the help of this top mogul controlling a technology company valued at three trillion, Chu Mo’s plan that had only been strategy on paper could now be put into action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his glass solemnly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Cao, Mr. Fan, you will be the first members of the Immortal Club. I promise you, should our research yield results, you will be the first to benefit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both men raised their glasses simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the three men clinked their glasses lightly, a world-class club devoted to uncovering the secrets of human longevity—a club worth over a trillion—began to take shape.\u003C\u002Fp>",1158,"2026-05-29T15:34:12.861Z","2026-06-01T04:29:37.635Z",1,"novelbin.me","c2294bb4a5d15a8712984e04ec1408f00dd9f5ac8c685fda26cfe5b7eb09ff26","trillionaire-s-slice-of-life-chapter-196","trillionaire-s-slice-of-life-chapter-194",1263,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftrillionaire-s-slice-of-life-cover.jpg"]
