Chapter 204 Compromise
The Cassie Group held a meeting for a week, because the choice of the heroine has been controversial, and no one can convince anyone, so the two groups insisted.

Most of the high-level people are optimistic about Shen Sifei, not only because she can sell favors to Shen Juxing, but also because Shen Sifei's topicality is relatively high, her acting skills are not bad, and the overall benefits are the highest.

But Jin Zhu did not accept their opinion and insisted that the candidate should be Shen Zhixuan. His reason was that the protagonist he chose did not need other external things, only acting skills.

At the last meeting, those who supported Shen Sifei finally retreated, because it was meaningless for them to argue any longer. Jin Zhu's attitude was very clear, as long as someone with better acting skills was selected, others would not be considered.

Therefore, the candidate for the heroine was finally determined to be Shen Zhixuan, but the result was not announced to the public.

But Shen Tao received the news, and when his senior friend in Casey called him, he informed Shen Sifei of the result.

The reason is that I hope that Shen Sifei can make mental preparations in advance, so that she can deal with media reporters calmly and generously.

"Dad! I can't accept the result!" Shen Sifei was not reconciled, "Now the whole world is staring at the result of the heroine, it is no longer a situation where I can give up if I give up. After they know the result, they will only think that I am not as good as her, what is this? Yes! This will become a stain on my life!"

"...You are thinking too seriously. This only shows that the other party's temperament is more in line with the heroine."

"I don't care, I just know that in the eyes of the public, I, Shen Sifei, lost to others," Shen Sifei insisted, "So this time the heroine can't be anyone else, only me."

Shen Tao sighed deeply: "Dad can't help it this time, Cassie held several meetings there, and finally decided...other people."

Shen Sifei had a sudden thought: "Cassie's side can't do it, so how about Shen Zhixuan's side?"

"This..." Shen Tao had already thought of this point, but he didn't want to, so he subconsciously forgot about this method and never mentioned it.

Because he didn't want to force or coerce Shen Zhixuan to give up the role, he felt that if he did this, he would never get Shen Zhixuan's favor in the future.

Shen Tao concealed his attitude, fearing that Shen Sifei would be even more furious if he saw it, so he analyzed and persuaded him from other aspects instead of directly stating that he didn't want to do it.

"It's useless. How could anyone be willing to give up the role of the heroine in a movie produced by the Cassie Group? Money can't buy this."

"But Shen Zhixuan may not be rich." Shen Sifei noticed Shen Zhixuan's messages online, "You give her a lot of money, or promise her other things, so that she can give up this role."

"I guess they don't want to..." Although they only met a few times, Shen Tao could clearly feel that Shen Zhixuan was someone who would not bow down for five buckets of rice, and temptation was useless to her.

Shen Sifei ignored it: "Dad, how do you know if you haven't done it? I checked her information on the Internet, and I guess her family background is average. In addition, Dad, you are so famous, maybe she is your fan. For your sake, she is willing to quit?"

No, she is by no means a fan of mine.

Shen Tao said bitterly: "It's impossible, daughter, just give up."

But Shen Sifei didn't listen, ignore, or ignore.

She thinks her father is okay, but he just doesn't want to lose face and is ruthless, so he doesn't help her.

So she lost her temper, cried willfully, and then used all kinds of tricks to act cute and coquettish, but her father still refused.

So she threatened to go on a hunger strike.

Shen Tao still cruelly ignored.

But slowly, as the days passed, one day, two days... No matter how Shen Tao begged and coaxed, Shen Sifei still refused to eat, and insisted that Shen Tao go to coerce and lure Shen Zhixuan to make her give up the heroine position before she would eat.

There was even one time when she was so hungry that she fainted and was secretly sent to the hospital for an IV drip to supplement her nutrition. She still refused to eat after waking up.

Shen Sifei said stubbornly: "Dad, you can give me a drip when I'm unconscious, but as long as I'm awake, I won't take it, I won't eat, let's see who can't survive it!"

Hearing this, Shen Tao was angry, angry and sad, but seeing his daughter's gradually weakening body, without the slightest trace of blood pale as paper, he was only filled with pain and worry.

In the end, when Shen Sifei fell into a coma on the hospital bed again, Shen Tao surrendered.

When Shen Sifei woke up, he said hoarsely with red eyes: "Dad listens to you, I will do it right away, don't threaten Dad with a hunger strike, Dad only has you..."

"Dad..." Shen Sifei's face was weak and her voice was like a gnat, "I can't help it, I can't afford to lose face."

Shen Tao was heartbroken, at this moment he suddenly realized that he seemed to have raised his daughter wrongly...

"Father will do it now, but if the other party is still unwilling, you can give up."

Shen Sifei was silent, as if she didn't want to accept it.

Shen Tao persuaded: "Dad promises to talk to the other party, but you ask yourself, if it were you, would you be willing to give up?"

Shen Sifei didn't answer.

But Shen Tao knew the answer: "I don't want to, right? So the final result may not be what you want. At that time, can you promise Dad, let this matter pass, and don't use hunger strikes or other things that hurt yourself. Threatening Dad, Dad's heart really hurts like a knife..."

Seeing that her father seemed to be about to shed tears, Shen Sifei nodded and agreed: "But Dad, you can't lie to me, you promise to work hard to do it."

"...I will definitely do my best," Shen Tao smiled wryly, "When did Dad ever lie to you?"

Only then did Shen Sifei smile with satisfaction, and coquettishly said: "I believe in Dad, and I will wait for your good news."

Shen Tao sighed, and didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so he changed the subject and said angrily: "You, the bigger you are, the more willful you are. Such a grown-up person is still imitating hunger strikes. He is a public figure now. Know what to do?"

Although she was weak and breathless when speaking, it could not affect her good mood after getting what she wanted.

So Shen Sifei smiled and said: "Didn't I trust Dad that you can handle it well?"

"..."

The hospital that Shen Sifei is currently staying in is an expensive private hospital with good confidentiality. In addition, Shen Tao and the director of the hospital are close friends, so there is really no need to worry about Shen Sifei's hunger strike being leaked out.

Shen Tao smiled angrily and said: "You, you are really not smart where you should be smart, and smart where you shouldn't be smart. You are a real messy girl."

"hey-hey."

Shen Sifei smiled without saying a word, she had achieved her goal, she could say whatever Shen Tao wanted.

But Shen Tao was not willing to talk too much about her, so he started to care about her after saying a few words: "You have been hungry for so many days, let the doctor check you up later to see if there is any problem, don't worry about it in the future. Stop making fun of your own body."

"Yes."

During the examination, Shen Sifei was very cooperative. The doctor asked her to open her mouth as soon as she opened her mouth, and stretched her arms as soon as she was asked. Even if she had to draw five small bottles of blood, she didn't cry at all.

You know, what she hates the most since she was a child is drawing blood, every time she has to cry and fuss, no matter how much Shen Tao can coax her, she will stop on her own when she has had enough fuss.

Seeing that Shen Tao seemed to want to accompany him in the examination, Shen Sifei stopped him: "Dad, you don't need to be with you for the examination items later, hurry up and do serious things, I will wait for your good news at the hospital."

The subtext is that if you don't do it for a day, I won't leave the hospital for a day, and I may even be "sick" and hospitalized again.

She said very considerately: "Call me directly if there is a result. If you are busy, you don't need to come to the hospital. It is important to deal with serious matters."

Shen Tao was driven out of the hospital just like that.

What the daughter meant was that he didn't do it for a day, and he didn't want to see her in the hospital for a day.

Shen Tao had no choice but to find Shen Zhixuan as soon as possible.

Afterwards, he thought about several plans, and went to talk to Shen Zhixuan when he was ready, but found that he couldn't start.

Because he couldn't find Shen Zhixuan.

Even Cassie's senior management didn't know Shen Zhixuan's contact information and home address. Although Shen Tao felt weird, he didn't think too much about it, and instead contacted Shen Zhixuan's assistant.

The result is that she also needs to contact to see.

Shen Tao was suspicious, so he inquired in detail, and found that the assistant only had Shen Zhixuan's mobile phone contact information, and did not know other information.

"This..." Shen Tao was surprised, and said to the assistant on the phone, "Please contact her for me first, I have something important to discuss with her."

"Okay, I'll get in touch right now."

"Can you give me her phone number directly? I'll get in touch myself."

"I'm sorry...I have to get her permission to give this."

"...Well then, I'm waiting for your call now. Whether you can contact her or not, you will call me back."

"Ok."

Not long after hanging up the phone, Shen Tao successfully received a call from his assistant, but the news was not good.

"Senior Shen, I'm sorry, Sister Xuan... asked you what you need to see her for."

"I want to talk to her face to face."

"Sister Xuan said that you need to know something before discussing it face to face."

"..." Shen Tao said helplessly, "It's not convenient for me to talk to you, so can I talk to her on the phone? Is it convenient for her to call me?"

The assistant had no choice but to speak directly to Shen Zhixuan's words: "Sister Xuan also needs to know what's going on before deciding whether to talk on the phone."

The assistant felt that this was not very respectful to the senior, and originally wanted to hide it, but unfortunately he was forced to reveal the truth in the end.

Shen Tao: "..."

"Senior Shen, please be misunderstood. Sister Xuan has received a lot of interruptions recently because of her role...so..." the assistant explained, "That's why I did this, and it's not aimed at you."

Shen Tao was speechless.

Can he say that he also tried to get in touch because of this incident?
