Chapter 93 The Bottom Line
"There's nothing unspeakable about this."

Shang Xibei kept chattering in Xia Donghai's ear, which made people feel bored.

"Or forget it."

Xia Donghai still didn't want to make the final compromise. If he really continued to compromise, he would completely lose his character as a literati.

"Don't forget about it. The reporters have been hired for you, the machines have been set up, and the script has been written for you. It's all my money, you know?"

Shang Xibei also raised his tone and slapped the table heartbreakingly, as if he wanted to fight Xia Donghai to the end.

Liu Mei's attitude was still not very clear, she just shook her head and looked at Xia Donghai.

"It's already reached this point. It would be a pity if we give up at this time."

"Yes."

The way Liu Mei and Monk Northwest sang together made Xia Donghai fall into silence.

"Why don't you apologize to someone and let you go back. The money is easy to handle. I'll pay for it. I'll pay you as much as you want."

I thought that waiting for Xia Donghai to open his mouth again would make the other party compromise, but he didn't expect that Xia Donghai would resist more resolutely in exchange. While talking, he took out his wallet and wanted to give money to Shang northwest.

"It's not a matter of money or not."

"This is about the interests of our TV series, why did they ask you to make this film?"

"That's because I told the investors that you are a director who came back from the United States, and your identity has publicity value and a selling point."

Shang Xibei clapped his hands while talking, and looked at Xia Donghai earnestly, as if wishing to see through him.

"Old Shang, this matter is ruthless. I really can't do anything. I can understand you very well. In order to make this matter happen, you guard the investors. How about the producer? I don't care how you say it, and I don't care. I can’t control your mouth, but you let me make up some of my own experiences in front of the media and the camera.”

"Tell me what happened to me in Hollywood, I can't open my mouth, and in front of the children, I can't say this even more."

Only then did Xia Donghai express his thoughts.

It turned out that Xia Donghai was twisting like this because he was in front of the children.

Shang Xibei shook his head even more seriously.

"Oh, it's not that serious."

"That's right, kid..."

Liu Mei was also helping to speak, and she immediately realized something was wrong as soon as she said a few words, her expression gradually changed, she was not smiling as kindly as before, and her tone of speaking became hesitant.

"Stop talking, Xiao Shang."

"It's really not appropriate to say these things in front of children. We usually teach children not to lie, and to be sincere and kind. Now, as parents, if we violate these words in front of our children, Wouldn’t that mean that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked? This is very wrong for the children’s future growth.”

At this moment, Liu Mei seemed to be a relative coming over, and rejected Shang Xibei with righteous words.

"That's right, I've always taught them to be human, to be honest and honest, to be what they are? Say what you want, and you can't talk nonsense. Now I'm just fooling around and making things up. How will I educate them in the future?"

Looking at his wife, Xia Donghai finally didn't want to be on TV as much as before, so he also felt a force, which seemed to support him, and he had more confidence even in the face of Shang Xibei.

"Aren't you two thinking too much?"

"These are all children's affairs. We adults don't understand at all, and they can't get involved. At worst, let's avoid children. Isn't that enough?"

Shang Xibei looked speechless, facing the couple, the money had already been delivered to their door, so why didn't these two people want it?

"I am willing to abide by the contract, and I have the responsibility and obligation to help you promote this TV series, but I have the right to maintain a minimum of dignity."

"I really can't help you with this."

Xia Donghai's eyes seemed to be shining, and he stared at Shang Beibei resolutely.

While speaking, he raised his hand and put it on his heart, as if making some oath.

"Then you don't intend to direct this TV series, do you?"

Seeing such a big change in the other party's attitude, Shang Beibei's tone gradually became impatient, and he turned his head slightly to stare at Xia Donghai very seriously.

"Of course I really want to direct this movie, but to be honest, you know very well that I have the ability to direct this movie, but if I have to tell lies to direct, I would rather give up."

Xia Donghai stood up and gave Shang Xibei an example very seriously.

"To put it bluntly, what do you mean you won't be interviewed?"

But the person opposite didn't seem to understand what he meant, and the style of painting changed, and it became another kind of accusation.

"If I didn't accept the interview, why would I agree to them coming to my house? But if the content of the interview is as it is now, I really can't accept it."

"Dad, I support you."

As Xia Donghai was still speaking righteously, the children pushed open the door one by one and walked in.

"Dad, you will always be the pride of the three of us."

"That's right, husband. Our whole family supports any decision you make. We can't do this kind of thing that goes against our conscience. "

"But isn't it too late for me to say this now?"

Liu Mei recalled the things she asked Xia Donghai to do before, and felt as if she had been bewitched.

"Director Xia, I heard it from outside. I admire your courage and integrity."

The host just now followed the children in at some point and followed the children all the time. After coming over, he extended his hand to Xia Donghai very politely.

"You've won the prize, you've won the prize."

"In fact, I feel very sorry. I called you all the way home, and it turned out to be like this. I'm really sorry."

Xia Donghai saw that the other party was so polite to him, so he also walked down the steps. While talking, he bowed deeply to the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party directly blocked his ready to bow.

"Or else, let's talk about creation and nothing else during the official interview later."

"Okay! Okay, let's talk about creation like this. After a while, then you can talk about your creative ideas, talk about how this TV series is in line with international standards, and talk about how many overseas companies this TV series has..."
