Some data was clearly not suitable to be stored on a computer.
As a programmer, Lu Li deeply understood the true nature of the internet ecosystem.
If nothing else, his own employee, Robert Tapan Morris, could easily infiltrate his computer and lay bare every file inside and out…
So, the core information related to "The Immortality Club"—such as employee records, Time Acquisition client files, Time Sale client files, and long-term strategic development—was all recorded by Lu Li personally on paper.
The chat group for "The Immortality Club" was still temporarily hosted on TT, primarily for two reasons. First, TT as a social messaging app was quite convenient. Second, the group didn't contain any sensitive information. Even if it occasionally drew someone's attention, they would simply dismiss it as a gathering of "cringe middle-school edgelords" or a fan group for some web novel...
Nevertheless, Lu Li had already instructed Morris to start developing a new chat software with high privacy protection, so the group could eventually migrate to their own internal platform.
…
Seated in a study decorated in classical style.
Outside the window in front of him, the rain continued falling. According to the weather forecast, a typhoon was approaching in the coming days, and this rain was expected to last for about a week.
Lu Li sat naturally, his back perfectly straight. He held a fountain pen in hand, organizing the information in front of him.

After finishing the employee files, Lu Li went on to supplement Zheng Bowen's client file.
In the client record for "Zheng Bowen," Lu Li wrote the following evaluation and projection:
"Has completely sunk into the vanity and gratification brought by wealth. Still holds significant acquisition potential… Zheng Bowen, remaining time: 64 years; projected total acquisition: 30+ years."
Lu Li's forecast was harsh and cold—like an entry in the Book of Life and Death. Zheng Bowen's "life" had already been defined in this file.
Besides Zheng Bowen, Lu Li planned to expand follow-up investigations on clients once there were enough staff members—for example, the follow-up on taxi driver Xie Dahai.
He slowly filed away the documents, placing each into separate drawers of the bookcase.
Then Lu Li returned to his desk and adjusted his glasses.
He opened a new file.
This document was an investigation into a family from Zhonghai.
His gaze fell on the header, where several large characters stood out:
Zhonghai's Four Great Families – The Song Family!
Ranked alongside the Guo Family, the Chen Family, and the Kong Family as one of Zhonghai's Four Great Families, with a prestigious heritage tracing back over a hundred years.
Today, the Song Family's businesses are primarily concentrated in the entertainment sector, making them a dominant force in the Republic's entertainment industry.
Their family-run enterprise, Datang International Film Company, ranked among the top ten entertainment companies in the country and boasted six to seven A-list celebrities.
As Lu Li reviewed the Song Family's profile, a hint of emotion flickered across his face.
These families had accumulated wealth over a century and capitalized on the nation's development boom post-foundation. Today, each was powerful and unshakable.
Though all four families kept a low public profile, they nonetheless exerted real influence across every aspect of Zhonghai.
Even Zhonghai's newly minted billionaires dared not offend any of them lightly…
Lu Li pondered something for a moment, then turned to the next page.
This page detailed a major event soon to be held by the Song Family.
The Song Family's eldest son of the youngest generation, Song Ziwen, was about to be married.
This news had already made waves across Zhonghai's high society…
However, there was another matter not widely known:
The Song Family patriarch was gravely ill, and the family intended to use Song Ziwen's wedding as a joyous occasion to lift the old man's spirits.
Lu Li flipped to the final page of the Song Family dossier.
This page listed the Song Family's core members.
Second Generation: Song Shixiong.
Following that were his three wives (with a wide age gap, reminiscent of foreign aristocracy)…
Song Ziwen was the first grandson of the primary wife—he was the crown prince of the Song Family.
"Interesting."
Lu Li tapped his fingertips on the desk, deep in thought, then smiled.
He set the document aside and gently drummed his fingers on the desktop as he contemplated.
Song Shixiong of the Song Family was his next target.
At this stage, The Immortality Club had more or less digested the trade resources obtained from the Guo Family, and it was time to expand the client base further.
