WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Agree to my terms, or your son's life and prospects will be ruined.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Veiled Threats via Familial Concern

In Chinese high-context negotiation, directly threatening an opponent is considered uncouth; instead, speakers subtly emphasize the vulnerability of the other person's children to exert moral and emotional pressure.
