You should know that the combined fines of Migaomei as well as Allied America Movie Company didn't exceed 1.5 billion US dollars.
Steeling himself, Evan cautiously spoke up, "Director David, the amount you're asking for... it's a bit too large. The film industry is also in a slump, can we consider reducing it a bit?"
"Indeed, indeed, with the downturn in the economy, the film industry is truly not what it used to be, and our companies' revenues are getting worse. Please consider reducing the amount, Director David."
"..."
The others also started bargaining.
However, David seemed to have already seen through them and sneered, "Don't play the pity card with me; among all in Hollywood, other than Disney, your four major film companies are the most profitable."
"And even Migaomei, in such a state, still managed to come up with 1 billion. Don't tell me you can't come up with the money."
