In the afternoon, Howard Stringer will offer to enhance 7.5 million USD, Ted Elliot and Terry Roussiaux again not hesitant, had sold to Sony Film Industry 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 script directly. 下午,霍华德・斯特林格将报价提高到了750万美元,泰德・埃利奥特和特里・鲁西奥再也没有犹豫,直接将《加勒比海盗》剧本卖给了索尼影业。 After for the first time is Hollywood Star starts out the 20 million USD salary, filthy rich Sony Film Industry once more has created a highest record of Hollywood script bargain price. 继首次为好莱坞明星开出2000万美元片酬之后,财大气粗的索尼影业再次创造了一项好莱坞剧本交易价格的最高纪录。 Moreover, initial 20 million USD also calculates that ‚logical’, because of before that many Hollywood Star salaries was close to this level, some stars through being divided into contract, early has to attain the record that above 20 million USD rewards for services rendered. But this time, the Sony Film Industry 7.5 million USD initial price was almost disposable the Hollywood Original Script price highest record enhanced about two times, was more than three times of Hollywood one gold medal screenwriter average script offer. 而且,当初的2000万美元还算‘顺理成章’,因为在那之前,很多好莱坞明星的片酬都已经接近这种水平,一些明星通过分成合约,也早有拿到2000万美元以上酬劳的纪录。但这次,索尼影业750万美元的开价几乎一次性将好莱坞原创剧本价格最高纪录提高了近两倍,同时也是好莱坞一线金牌编剧平均剧本报价的三倍多。 The news spreads, entire Hollywood causes a stir, North America and even the foreign media start to prepare and this matter related news release crazily. 消息传出,整个好莱坞为之轰动,北美乃至海外媒体都开始疯狂地准备与这件事相关的新闻稿。 Cliff Peak Manor, the time is around 11 : 00 o'clock at night. 尖角庄园,时间已经是深夜11点多。 Fernanda Tavares wears the cool vest shorts, barefoots silent to walk lithely from the kitchen, in the hand carried a pot just to make the good coffee. 费尔南达・塔瓦雷斯穿着清凉的背心短裤,赤着脚轻盈无声地从厨房那边走来,手里端着一壶刚刚冲好的咖啡。 In the afternoon from Eric and in Howard several people of conversations, she knows that what happened, can feel the surrounding several people to shock extremely. 下午从艾瑞克和朗・霍华德几人的交谈中,她已经知道发生了什么事情,同时也能感受到周围几人极度的震惊。 However, as the outsider, she is unable to understand that Sony Film Industry 7.5 million USD purchases a more profound meaning that script represents, but Eric of some worries in vitality condition will vent anger to oneself on, is good because, this situation has not occurred. 不过,作为圈外人,她到底是无法理解索尼影业750万美元购买一个剧本所代表的更深刻含义,只是有些担心处在生气状态中的艾瑞克会迁怒到自己身上,好在,这种情况并没有发生。 When receives the first call at noon after sending has stirred a fire, this man from afternoon to tranquility that the present displays, in the evening returns to Cliff Peak Manor, telephoning that also continuously keeping. Although heard some words faintly, she very much intelligently is actually restraining her curiosity. 除了中午接到第一个电话时发了一通火之后,这个男人从下午到现在都表现的很平静,傍晚回到尖角庄园,也只是一直在不停的打电话。虽然隐隐听到了一些只言片语,她却很聪明地克制着自己的好奇心。 Near by a glass curtain wall long table, on table scattered in disorder places many documents, Eric front notebook is dodging the bright, his forehand supports the chin to stare at the notebook screen to ponder anything. In the villa is very peaceful, the sky and a sea level outside darkness curtain wall. 玻璃幕墙边的一张长桌旁,桌上散乱的摆放着很多文件,艾瑞克面前的笔记本电脑闪着亮光,他本人正手撑下巴盯着笔记本电脑屏幕思考着什么。别墅里很安静,幕墙外的天空和海面一片幽暗。 Is quietly fills to the brim Eric nearby cup, Fernanda places side the coffeepot, peacefully will get out of the way, felt that a hand extends to embrace her waist, then takes advantage of opportunity to sit on the Eric leg. 悄无声息地将艾瑞克旁边的杯子倒满,费尔南达把咖啡壶放在旁边,正要安静走开,感觉一只手伸过来揽住她的腰肢,便顺势坐在艾瑞克腿上。 The big hand sneaked in the girl elasticity extremely good small vest to walk randomly the moment at will, listening to the bosom the outstanding person to send out light in broken bits to breathe heavily gradually, on the Eric weary dissipation were many, collects to kiss on the girl cheeks, said: „Working day I will be very busy, tomorrow delivers you to return to New York.” 大手钻进女郎弹性极佳的小背心里随意游走了片刻,听着怀中尤物逐渐发出细碎的轻喘,艾瑞克身上的疲倦消散不少,凑过去在女郎脸颊上吻了下,道:“工作日我会很忙,明天送你回纽约吧。” Two days are together, Fernanda detected keenly Eric treats own manner just likes is treating a pet, is more accurate, perhaps is cat. He likes looking that she barefoots to walk back and forth in villa, likes looking she curls up lazy on the sofa watches the television, likes so supporting her likely at this time in the bosom caresses, the completeness is the master treats the pet manner, moreover appears that natural. 两天相处下来,费尔南达敏锐地发觉艾瑞克对待自己的态度犹如在对待一只宠物,更准确一些,或许是一只猫儿。他喜欢看她赤着脚在别墅里走来走去,喜欢看她慵懒地蜷在沙发上看电视,喜欢像此时这般将她拥在怀里爱抚一番,完完全全就是主人对待宠物态度,而且还显得那么理所当然。 Fernanda is the same with Gisele, is 14 years old leaves Brazil to fight outside, for better protects itself, in her disposition has is actually very rude and unreasonable side, if other people dare such to treat itself, she definitely immediately gets angry. 费尔南达和吉赛尔一样,都是14岁就离开巴西在外打拼,为了更好的保护自己,她性格中其实有着很是泼辣的一面,如果其他人敢这么对待自己,她肯定会立刻翻脸。 However, experiences the humans affair prematurely, makes her realize profoundly strength that the power and influence and wealth represent. Therefore, in this stands in the entire world power and influence and in front of the wealth peak man, she actually cannot give birth too resists the psychology, instead cannot help but will substitute in the middle of the role that the opposite party has liked. 不过,过早经历世事,也让她更加深刻地体会到权势和财富所代表的力量。因此,在这个站在整个世界权势和财富巅峰的男人面前,她却丝毫生不出太多抗拒心理,反而不由自主地将自己代入了对方喜欢的角色当中。 „Good,” Fernanda nods to respond, feels Eric, although has taken back the hand from own clothes, sympathizes the body that the link she is depending on slantingly, the moral nature somewhat loses. In this man majority of situation is very gentle, will make the woman have some impractical fantasies, but she actually understands that this type sympathizes gently has not doped many male and female sentiments in inside: „Eric, this year's Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show will you come to see?” “好啊,”费尔南达点头应着,感受到艾瑞克虽然从自己衣下收回了手,还是体贴地环着她斜靠的身体,心底不由有些失落。这个男人大部分情况下都很温柔,甚至会让女人产生一些不切实际的幻想,但她却明白这种温柔体贴并没有掺杂多少男女感情在里面:“艾瑞克,今年的维密大秀你会来看吗？” „So long as the movie in my hand heats bamboo strips for writing material, when the time comes should be able to pass,” Eric has shot the racket on the girl slender waist gently, said: „You can rest first, I must wait a while.” “只要我手中的电影杀青,到时候应该能过去,”艾瑞克在女郎细腰上轻轻拍了拍,道:“你可以先去休息,我还要等一会儿。” „Actually I am also the night owl, is not sleepy, or do I go to make a midnight snack to you?” “其实我也是夜猫子呢,一点都不困,要不我去给你做点夜宵？” „I did not like eating thing at this time, your hungry words can do.” “我不喜欢这个时候吃东西,你饿的话可以去做些。” „I do not eat,” Fernanda shakes the head, says with a smile: „Will put on weight.” “我也不吃,”费尔南达摇头,笑道:“会发胖的。” The Eric tip of the toe ignited makes the leather chair transfer the half-turn, hinted under not far away saying: „That watches little while television.” 艾瑞克脚尖点着地让皮椅转了半圈,示意了下不远处道:“那就去看会儿电视吧。” Fernanda sets out to arrive by other curtain wall one side two egg-shaped outer space chairs, takes up to place the remote control on tea table to turn on the wall hanging television on wall, then the stance shrinks lazy in the outer space chair. Turned head to behind to look at one, the Eric attention returned the notebook, unavoidably was somewhat disappointed, held the pillow to hold nearby one in the bosom, chose the television program careless. 费尔南达起身走到幕墙另外一边的两个蛋形太空椅旁,拿起放在茶几上的遥控器打开墙壁上的壁挂电视,然后姿态慵懒地缩在太空椅里。扭头向身后看了一眼,艾瑞克的注意力已经转回笔记本电脑,不免有些失望,将旁边一个抱枕捧在怀里,漫不经心地挑选起了电视节目。 At noon in telephone gratefully to Howard Stringer one knocks the belt to hit continually, Eric has expected that after own powerful statement, Howard Stringer either submits, gives up to 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 offer of out of the ordinary, either is under firmer snatching this script. 中午在电话里毫不客气地对霍华德・斯特林格一番连敲带打,艾瑞克就已经预料到,在自己的强势表态之后,霍华德・斯特林格要么屈服,放弃对《加勒比海盗》的出格报价,要么就是更加坚定的抢下这个剧本。 Howard Stringer finally chooses the latter, has not made Eric feel that is too accidental, he even beforehand realized that this possibility is bigger. 霍华德・斯特林格最终选择后者,也没有让艾瑞克感觉太意外吗,他甚至事先就意识到这种可能性更大一些。 Since just, this, Eric also planned that starts itself to plan by this turning point ahead of time something. 只不过,既然这样,艾瑞克也打算借由这一契机提前启动自己计划中的一些事情。 In recent years, although Firefly Group like initially continuously had not annexed the great writer expansion of Disney group and ABC group, but overall strength actually unceasingly swift reinforcement. 这些年来,萤火虫集团虽然没有像当初那样连续吞并迪斯尼集团和ABC集团的大手笔扩张,但整体实力却是不断地迅速增强。 Although Hollywood film market every year close 10% speeds grows in according to in recent years, but in is almost seven big carves up the world Hollywood, the Firefly Group powerful, will be doomed to cause several other companies to lose the corresponding market share unceasingly. Reviews oneself, the Firefly Group enterprise operation style is actually more like the elephant that constantly grows, but has not filled the aggressive wicked wolf, as a result of Eric my disposition reason, the company little will display aggressive side to the colleague competitor. 虽然好莱坞电影市场最近几年都在以每年接近10%的速度增长,但在几乎是七大瓜分天下的好莱坞,萤火虫集团的强势,注定会导致其他几家公司不断失去相应的市场份额。反观自身,萤火虫集团的企业经营风格其实更像是一头不断成长的大象,而非充满了侵略性的恶狼,由于艾瑞克本人的性格缘故,公司很少会对同行竞争对手表现出咄咄逼人的一面。 Therefore, from Howard Stringer today's performance can see, although all people can feel the great strength of Firefly Group, which company but does not have to dread this company truly. Under this condition, once Firefly Group continues to swallow more media professions the market share, in lacking awe situation at heart, unavoidably some people will not put forth hotheadedly let the dirty method that the person has a headache about. 因此,从霍华德・斯特林格今天的表现就可以看出,虽然所有人都能够感觉到萤火虫集团的强大,但却没有哪家公司会真正畏惧这家公司。这种状态下,一旦萤火虫集团继续吞噬更多传媒行业的市场份额,在缺乏敬畏心里的情况下,难免不会有人头脑发热使出一些让人头疼的龌龊手段。 Since this, perhaps is Firefly Group and even is the Firefly system demonstrates to the outside now the time of own sharp claws and fang. 既然这样,现在或许已经是萤火虫集团乃至是萤火虫体系向外界展示一下自身利爪和獠牙的时刻了。 Has combed the plan in heart once more carefully, knocked several emails to send, had a look at the time, approached 1 : 00 am, Eric then closes the computer. 再次将心中的计划细细梳理了一遍,又敲了几份电子邮件发出去,看看时间,已经接近凌晨一点,艾瑞克这才关上电脑。 Switches off the desk lamp, Eric sets out to arrive at curtain wall other one side, on the wall hanging television broadcast a grade of night play, is being very low, curls up the girl who the sound opened in outer space chair to fall asleep. 关掉台灯,艾瑞克起身走到幕墙另外一边,壁挂电视上播放着一档深夜剧,声音开的很低,蜷在太空椅里的女郎已经睡着了。 In the outer space chair of oval the space is not too eventually big, height close one meter eight tall and slender girls curl up, appears the waist thin leg is even more long, the stance is attractive. Eric is appreciating front Sleeping Beauty, put out a hand to jog lightly under the outer space chair. Perhaps feels rocking under body, Fernanda opened eyes quickly. 椭圆形的太空椅里空间终究不算太大,身高接近一米八的高挑女郎蜷在其中,愈发显得腰细腿长,姿态诱人无比。艾瑞克欣赏着面前的睡美人,伸手轻轻推了下太空椅。或许是感受到了身下的晃动,费尔南达很快睁开眼。 Hazy the moment, seeing clearly has stood in front man, Fernanda shows the smile, said: „Eric, did you finish?” 迷蒙了片刻,看清楚站在面前的男人,费尔南达露出微笑,道:“艾瑞克,你忙完了？” „Yes, although does not want to disturb you very much, but, here is not the sleeping place.” “是啊,虽然很不想打扰你,不过,这里可不是睡觉的地方。” Fernanda launches the slender body, a tip of the toe place is rocking gently, said: „I thought actually very good, plans also to install one in own apartment in the future.” 费尔南达舒展开纤长的身体,脚尖点地轻轻晃动着,道:“我倒是觉得很不错呢,打算将来也在自己公寓里装一个。” Eric puts out a hand to draw the girl, they walk toward the staircase together, said: „Why wants the future, goes back New York to install.” 艾瑞克伸手将女郎拉起来,两人一起朝楼梯走去,道:“为什么要将来,回去纽约就可以装啊。” Fernanda remembers Gisele their Manhattan top layer mansion, in the expression is having several points of self-pity: „But, I did not have own apartment.” 费尔南达想起吉赛尔两人的曼哈顿顶层豪宅,语气里带着几分自怜:“可是,我都还没有属于自己的公寓呢。” The Eric corners of the mouth bring smiling, expression to say at will: „Oh, then, the apartment, is the outer space chair, you choose one, I deliver you.” 艾瑞克嘴角带着笑,语气随意道:“哦,那么,公寓,还是太空椅,你选一个,我送你。” Fernanda felt immediately own heartbeat quick several points, remembered Eric to sign million USD checks to make their one group of girls go to the Universal travel last year conveniently the matter, she understands that he was is not cracking a joke. At this man present terrifying net worth, even if the Manhattan top layer mansion that the Gisele two people live, regarding him also absolutely is not anything. 费尔南达顿时就感觉自己的心跳快了几分,想起去年艾瑞克随手签下一张百万美元支票让她们一群女孩去环球旅行的事情,她就明白他并不是在开玩笑。以这个男人现在的恐怖身家,即使是吉赛尔两人居住的曼哈顿顶层豪宅,对于他来说也绝对不算什么。 However, Fernanda suppressed his thought that said: „Then was good on the outer space chair, I can attain next year probably represent the contract, when the time comes can buy one own apartment in Manhattan.” 不过,费尔南达还是抑制住了自己的念头,道:“那就太空椅好了,我明年大概就能拿到一些代言合约,到时候就可以在曼哈顿买一套属于自己的公寓了。” By recent years in the background that the fashion overcomes, in addition this year's Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show as well as participates performance the popularity that «Enemy of the State» brings, enough Fernanda advanced into supermodel ranks, even if unable with Cindy Crawford these occupy the eldest sister in Pyramid peak to compare as before greatly, but she will attain several million USD ranks the representing contracts to have more than enough to spare next year. 凭借最近几年在时尚界打下的底子,再加上今年的维密大秀以及参演《全民公敌》带来的人气,已经足够费尔南达跻身一线超模行列,即使无法与辛迪・克劳馥这些依旧占据金字塔顶端的大姐大相比,但她明年拿到几份百万美元级别的代言合约还是绰绰有余的。 „You purchased homes to tell me one, I make the person deliver to you, considers the new home gift,” the Eric expression at will, had not explained as before too many meanings, considers to girl one slightly pleasantly surprised, if she could not discover, that considered the small painted eggshell to be good. “等你买了房子告诉我一声,我让人给你送过去,就当是新居礼物,”艾瑞克语气依旧随意,并没有解释太多的意思,就当是给身旁女郎一个小惊喜,或者,如果她发现不了,那就当是小彩蛋好了。 This set of hanging type outer space chair initially the girl tossed about, although Eric does not have too to pay attention to the concrete construction cost, but in one pile of values frequently several thousand hundreds of thousands of USD expensive furniture, where this set places the position conspicuous work and may be called the outer space chair impossible small advantage of artware rank to go obviously. 这套吊挂式太空椅是当初丫头折腾来的,艾瑞克虽然没有太关注具体造价,但在一堆价值动辄数万数十万美元的昂贵家具中间,这套摆放位置显眼做工又堪称艺术品级别的太空椅显然不可能便宜到哪里去。 ...... …… The new week just started, because the North America major media the Sony Film Industry 7.5 million USD high price buys the 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 script news to seethe with excitement a piece. 新的一周刚刚开始,北美的各大媒体就因为索尼影业750万美元高价买下《加勒比海盗》剧本的消息而沸腾一片。 Some artificial Sony Film Industry great writers feel the exclamation, some people thought that made this decision the Sony Film Industry management certainly to lose the reason, some professionals analyzed this are Hollywood and IT industry same present the symbol of serious bubble. 有人为索尼影业的大手笔感到惊叹,也有人觉得做出这个决定的索尼影业高管一定是失去了理智,更有一些专业人士分析这是好莱坞与IT行业一样出现严重泡沫化的标志。 In recent years, emerges the Hollywood movie speculative capital to be getting more and more turbulent, this year the filmmaking budget of Hollywood whole year in 13 billion USD about, the avoiding taxes funds surpasses 2.5 billion USD from the Germany, United Kingdom and other country of probably, 20% of close total proportion. In addition, after two times wreak havoc, the Southeast Asia financial crisis is in the true conclusion stage, the international idle fund the big fund that withdraws from Southeast Asia, there is a a large part to flow to the film industry of vigorous development. 最近几年,涌入好莱坞的电影投机资本越来越汹涌,今年好莱坞全年的电影制作预算大概在130亿美元左右,这其中来自德国、英国等国家的避税资金就超过25亿美元,接近总比例的20%。此外,二次肆虐之后,东南亚金融危机进入真正的收尾阶段,国际游资从东南亚撤回的大笔资金,也有很大一部分流入到蓬勃发展的电影行业。 Although has the support of Sony group, Sony Film Industry adopts the Hollywood traditional financing method in filmmaking to a great extent as before, is carries on floating debt financing to the major investment fund and even the banks. The massive speculative capitals emerge, actually is also Sony Film Industry dares to ask for the 7.5 million USD sky-high price the basis. 虽然有着索尼集团的支持,索尼影业在电影制作方面很大程度上依旧采取好莱坞传统的融资方式,也即是向各大投资基金乃至银行进行短期债务融资。大量的投机资本涌入,其实也是索尼影业敢于开出750万美元天价的根本。 Naturally, the consequence that does this is, once the project unfavorable situation of Film Studio, the company ratio of debt to net worth will be getting higher and higher, initial Metro Goldwyn Mayer was because this accumulated step by step has almost been equal to the high quota debt of market value. However, as the wholly-owned subsidiary of Sony group, the Sony Film Industry debt, will naturally pass the burden to the Sony overall financial system. 当然,这样做的后果就是,一旦电影公司的项目失利,公司负债率就会越来越高,当初的米高梅就是因为这样一步步积累了几乎相当于市值的高额债务。不过,作为索尼集团的全资子公司,索尼影业的债务,自然也会转嫁到索尼整体的财务体系中。 Hollywood, 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 script is causes by Eric eventually, all people know that this is Eric script that Williams settles on, although not clear this trap like past «Cutthroat Island», but regarding Firefly, since the time ‚slip’, even if in the heart breaks the profession rule to be recklessly dissatisfied to Sony Film Industry, more people are holding a manner of taking pleasure in others'misfortunes as before. 好莱坞内部,《加勒比海盗》的剧本终究是由艾瑞克引起的,所有人都知道这又是一个艾瑞克・威廉姆斯看中的剧本,虽然不清楚这是不是又像当年《割喉岛》那样的陷阱,但对于萤火虫既然的这次‘失手’,即使心中对索尼影业肆意破坏行业规则感到不满,更多人依旧是抱着一种幸灾乐祸的态度。 On the other hand, received 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 as well as almost all script that harvested Box Office the stimulation of «Ring» steadily, the Firefly Group script purchase unit contacted is still paid close attention, attempted to duplicate the 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 pattern screenwriter is follows a set pattern spreads certain rumors, simultaneously greatly enhanced to the offer of Firefly Group. 另外一方面,受到《加勒比海盗》以及仍然在平稳收割票房的《午夜凶铃》的刺激,萤火虫集团剧本采购部门正在接触的几乎所有剧本都受到了密切关注,一些企图复制《加勒比海盗》模式的编剧更是如法炮制地放出某些风声,同时大幅提高对萤火虫集团的报价。 Meanwhile, script that settles on by Sony so arbitrarily truncation Hu, the person who also watches the fun hopefully was anticipating whether Firefly Group will take the counterattack measure. 同时,看中的剧本被索尼如此蛮横地截胡,也有希望看热闹的人期待着萤火虫集团是否会拿出反击措施。 Howard although Stringer after taking 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 script, specially held a press conference intentionally as a sign of protest, but, in his heart also unavoidably somewhat is actually perturbed, had stayed in Los Angeles three days of time, confirmed that Firefly Group anything has further not acted, he flies back to New York Sony United States Headquarters. 霍华德・斯特林格虽然在拿下《加勒比海盗》剧本之后,故意示威般地还专门召开了一次新闻发布会,不过,他心中其实也难免有些七上八下,一直又在洛杉矶呆了三天时间,确认萤火虫集团没有什么进一步动作,他才飞回纽约的索尼美国总部。 In surface, Firefly Group regarding losing the 《Pirates of the Caribbean》 performance unusual is tranquil, but places all management of Firefly system to feel the recent several days Firefly system interior atmosphere differences clearly, the most remarkable performance was, the Eric assistant office inquires the material to pull and read the document the frequency from various Firefly system companies to be obviously high in the recent several days. 表面上,萤火虫集团对于失去《加勒比海盗》表现的非常平静,但身处萤火虫体系的所有高管都能够清晰地感受到了最近几天萤火虫体系内部气氛的不同之处,最显著的表现就是,艾瑞克的助理办公室最近几天从萤火虫体系各公司查询资料调阅文件的频率明显高了很多。 So to Wednesday, the major company management of Firefly system inside and outside including Hollywood together receives the notice, all people need to attend the core high-level meeting of Firefly system in Friday morning, is unable to rush to the Los Angeles management also to through the conference call pattern participate. 如此一直到周三,萤火虫体系包括好莱坞内外的各大公司高管一起接到通知,所有人需要在周五上午出席萤火虫体系的核心高层会议,无法赶到洛杉矶的高管也必须通过视频会议模式参加。
