It all depends on the journal and editor, you may still have a chance if the rebuttal letter is well written and sound eloquent from every aspect.
Here is something I would do, can't guarantee it will work
Start something with,
We thank the reviewer for the suggestion. While we agree with the reviewer
that addtional XXX studies would enhance the significance, the primary focus
of this study is to XXXX (put your emphasis here). In this vein, such
studies are beyond the scope of this study and we are currently
investigating (XXXX), which will be reported separately.
I am writing a rebuttal letter right now:) Lucky this time, I didn't get

Good luck! |

I usually just pick up the phone and talk to the editor. It's pretty much
a negotiation process to narrow down the extra stuff that you need to do.
Tell him/her exactly what you said here "他没有完全理解我们文章的重点，而且
他建议
的实验本身就是个大topic可以自成一篇文章的。" The editor usually reduces the
scope. If you don't feel confident of doing this, ask your boss to help
