At dusk, black lengthens Cadillac car to stop in the 20th Century Fox cinema city campus slowly, the car style appears somewhat strange, the segmentum anterius streamline ordinary car style, the middle lengthens the automobile body, the end is actually the square shape, to person one type the gecko feeling of tail. The drivers get out to open the vehicle door, stands was confessing to the side assistant outside the office building anything's Elizabeth realized this is the Eric private car, walked quickly, sneaks in the vehicle. 傍晚时分,黑色的加长凯迪拉克轿车在二十世纪福克斯影城园区内缓缓停下,轿车的样式显得有些古怪,前段流线型的普通轿车样式,中间是加长车身,尾部却是方形,给人一种断了尾巴的壁虎感觉。司机下车打开车门,站在办公楼外正向身旁助理交代着什么的伊丽莎白才意识到这是艾瑞克的座驾,快步走了过来,钻进车子里。 Outside driver closes the vehicle door, Elizabeth said: „How you drive such a car(riage) suddenly, looks like the clown?” 外面司机关上车门,伊丽莎白才道:“你怎么突然开这么一辆车,看起来好丑？” Material of Eric in the hand according to the knee, said: „Girl buys, said that gives my birthday present. Attending the premiere must ride the protocol car(riage), I can only open this.” 艾瑞克把手中一份资料按在膝盖上,道:“丫头买的,说是送我的生日礼物。参加首映礼要坐礼宾车吧,我就只能开这辆了。” The vehicle starts slowly, Elizabeth has gawked blurry, said: „Is your birthday this month?” 车子缓缓发动,伊丽莎白迷糊地愣了下,道:“你的生日是这个月吗？” Eric shakes the head: „It is not.” 艾瑞克摇头:“不是。” Elizabeth said: „What birthday present does she give?” 伊丽莎白道:“那她送什么生日礼物啊？” Eric shrugs: „How I know that delivers me according to girl the frequency of birthday present, I should now 280 years old.” 艾瑞克耸耸肩:“我怎么知道,按照丫头送我生日礼物的频率,我现在应该已经280岁了。” Elizabeth pū laughs, despises saying: „Is you favors, all day acts like a madman, aesthetic so is disappointing, such ugly vehicle must buy.” 伊丽莎白噗嗤笑出来,鄙视道:“都是你宠的,整天疯疯癫癫,审美还这么差劲,这么丑的车子都要买。” Eric said with a smile: „Do not look at the clown, is very expensive, it is said is Cadillac the next generation President vehicle that designs for the White House, Clinton has not sat specially.” 艾瑞克笑道:“别看丑,很贵的,据说是凯迪拉克专为白宫设计的下一代总统用车,克林頓都还没坐上。” „In any case is quite ugly,” on the Elizabeth face is bringing smiling as before, notes the material in Eric hand, looked at the eye curiously, said: „What this is, um, Ford foundation?” “反正就是好丑,”伊丽莎白脸上依旧带着笑,注意到艾瑞克手中的资料,好奇地看了眼,道:“这是什么,嗯,福特基金会？” Eric hands over the material in hand, said: „I was reading the materials of some family foundations recently.” 艾瑞克把手中的资料递过去,道:“我最近在看一些家族基金会的资料。” Elizabeth received material to turn several pages from Eric conveniently, the corners of the mouth are having the happy expression of teasing, said: „Therefore, you can also start to hit consider as finished for the future?” 伊丽莎白从艾瑞克手里接过资料随手翻了几页,嘴角带着调侃的笑意,道:“所以,你也要开始为将来打算了？” „Yes,” Eric by the chairback, turns upwards the leg, said: „Recently suddenly discovered that something have to be done. I compared the resistance so-called foundation before, but thought now that this is really the best method that a family inherits.” “是啊,”艾瑞克靠在椅背上,翘起腿,道:“最近突然发现,有些事情还是不得不做的。我以前比较抗拒所谓的基金会,但现在才觉得,这真是一个家族传承下来的最好方法。” In the recent several days after reading a series of materials, Eric discovered that these family foundations of West, the property scale or the operation mode counteract themselves to imagine at first. 最近几天阅读一系列资料之后,艾瑞克发现,西方的这些家族基金会,无论是资产规模还是运作模式都有悖于自己最初的想象。 At first when like the Ford foundation, newly was established, the registered capital of Ford foundation only then 25000 USD, even if afterward Henry Ford passed away, the inheritance pours into the foundation completely, property scale not over 2 billion USD, but now, the property scale of Ford foundation actually has achieved 9 billion USD. 就像福特基金会,最初刚刚成立时,福特基金会的注册资金只有25000美元,即使后来亨利・福特去世,遗产全部注入基金会,资产规模也不超过20亿美元,但现在,福特基金会的资产规模却已经达到90亿美元。 If not calculate the inflation factor, the property of Ford family is actually continuously the rise . Moreover, the family inheritance pattern of foundation, can the maximum degree avoids the descendant continuing faced with the inheritance tax issue. 如果不计算通胀因素,福特家族的资产其实是一直在上涨的,而且,基金会的家族传承模式,也可以最大程度避免后代继续面临的遗产税问题。 What is more surprising, even if hundred years pass by, by the Ford foundation to Ford group only 2% owning stocks, under the rule of dual share, the Ford family as before control the large-scale car group that this world is second to none. 更让人惊讶的是,即使百年过去,凭借福特基金会对福特集团仅有2%的持股,在双重股权结构的规则下,福特家族依旧控制着这家世界首屈一指的大型汽车集团。 Beside Ford family, Carnegie Foundation or the Rockefeller foundation, the only digit calculates, the property scale that they control now exceeds the inheritance that the ancestry stay behind at first similarly, this number at the property of 1 billion idea, although is unable to make them push in the Forbes rich and powerful people list, actually enough they keep ancestry's honor and social position. 福特家族之外,无论是卡耐基基金会还是洛克菲勒基金会,单凭数字来算,他们现在控制的资产规模同样超过祖辈们最初留下的遗产,这数以十亿计的资产,虽然无法让他们挤入福布斯富豪榜,却足够他们维持祖辈的荣光和社会地位。 As for domination that Eric initially most paid attention, this is not the issue. 至于艾瑞克当初最关注的控制权,这更不是什么问题。 Eric has looked at all family foundations, the domination almost completely grasp in initiating the family hand, although in the surface is using the public welfare foundation name of non- profit nature, every year needs to donate certain amount the property. But the operation modes of these donations are interesting. 艾瑞克看过的所有家族基金会,控制权几乎都完全掌握在创始家族手中,虽然表面上打着非盈利性质的公益基金会名义,每年需要捐赠一定数额的资产。但这些捐赠的运作模式更是有趣。 Assuming that a foundation must donate 100 million USD every year, this looks like seems this foundation in unconditionally the massive hemorrhage, but in fact, this sum of money should be how colored, controls the family of foundation to decide. 假设一家基金会每年必须捐赠1亿美元,这看起来似乎是这家基金会在无条件大出血,但实际上,这笔钱该怎么花,还是控制着基金会的家族说了算。 Ford foundation, Carnegie Foundation, is the Rockefeller foundation, the so-called establishment purpose is by promoting entire social education, science and technology, medical service and other industry growths takes the goal, this in fact was equal to that anything had not promised, therefore has also given the foundation very broad operation space 无论是福特基金会,卡耐基基金会,还是洛克菲勒基金会,所谓的成立宗旨都是以促进整个社会教育、科技、医疗等行业发展作为目标,这实际上等于什么都没有许诺,因此也就给了基金会非常广阔的运作空间 For example, family firm wants to obtain more advantageous policy condition from government there, then, can a sum of money from the family foundation, support to have the congressman of voting rights to ‚technology industry is beneficial’ the inspection project, goes to Hawaii Bahamas anything. Moreover, anybody cannot accuse the foundation to be contrary, because of others, but the non-profit archery target, this procedure fully conforms to the federal law. For example, the family juniors do not make every effort to succeed again, do not have the means to test into Harvard Yale depending on their skill, this was simpler, spends a sum of money to donate these schools from the foundation , to promote ‚the development of social education profession’. While convenient, the family/home child should go to college, do you want or do not want? 比如,家族企业想要从政府那里获得更加有利的政策条件,那么,就可以从家族基金会里出一笔钱,赞助拥有投票权的议员进行一些对‘科技行业有益’的考察项目,去一趟夏威夷啦巴哈马啊什么的。而且,没有任何人可以指责基金会违规,因为人家可是非盈利性质的,这种做法完全符合联邦法律。再比如,家族子弟不太争气,没办法凭自己的本事考上哈佛耶鲁,这就更简单了,从基金会里拿出一笔钱捐给这些学校,促进‘社会教育行业的发展’。顺便,家里的孩子该上大学了,你是要还是不要？ Moreover, these actually also quite pompous operation technique, as for operations various in secret, that is the one pattern after another. 而且,这些其实还只是比较冠冕堂皇的运作手法,至于私下里的各种操作,那就更是花样百出。 In brief, so-called public welfare foundation, whose should be, is whose, but if you have given Internal Revenue Service money, that absolutely did not have any to relate with you. 总而言之,所谓的公益基金会,该是谁的,还是谁的,但如果你把钱交给了国税局,那就完全跟你没有任何关系了。 What is most important, adopts the foundation pattern to carry on the family wealth inheritance, can maximum limit maintain the cohesive force of entire family, to enjoy providing for of family foundation for a long time, so long as the descendant makes every effort to succeed slightly some family juniors, cannot help but will make the effort for the development of promotion foundation, this is also Rockefeller, Carnegie, Ford these families can inherit most basic reason that hundred years do not fade. But if adopts the traditional property to inherit the pattern, even if the second generation can still unite, but third generation, fourth generation, because the ability is different, because assigns unevenly, or other reasons, one day, the entire family will disintegrate completely. 最重要的是,采取基金会模式进行家族财富传承,可以最大限度地保持整个家族的凝聚力,为了更长久地享受家族基金会的供养,后代只要稍微争气一些的家族子弟,都会不由自主地为促进基金会的发展做出努力,这也是洛克菲勒、卡耐基、福特这些家族能够传承百年不衰的最根本原因。但如果采取传统财产继承模式,即使第二代能够依然团结在一起,但第三代,第四代,因为能力不同,因为分配不均,又或者其他各种原因,总有一天,整个家族会完全分崩离析。 In the vehicle, Elizabeth hears the Eric words, on the face actually shows the mischievous expression, as well as light hidden bitterness: „, Mr. Williams, you considered these matters time has to think, where is your family at?” 车子里,伊丽莎白听到艾瑞克的话,脸上却露出促狭的表情,以及淡淡的幽怨:“那么,威廉姆斯先生,你考虑这些事情的时候有没有想过,你的家族在哪？” Eric light cough, shifted the topic awkwardly: „That, what to do does your family plan?” 艾瑞克尴尬地轻咳了下,转移话题:“那个,你们家打算怎么办？” Elizabeth curls the lip, said: „My Papa plans to use trust fund.” 伊丽莎白撇撇嘴,却还是道:“我爸爸打算用信托基金。” Eric thinks that said: „This, when the time comes should to pay taxes?” 艾瑞克想了想,道:“这个,到时候应该还是要交税的吧？” Elizabeth nods: „Yes, but, tax rate should be able to be maintained about 15%, when the time comes, News Corp collects slightly, in the family/home does not need to sell the stock, can pay duty probably, our family/home does not have your such big. Then, your credibility is so huge, Internal Revenue Service stubbornly will definitely be staring at you, you imagine other family such not to need to pay taxes to inherit smoothly the property, absolutely is not an easy matter.” 伊丽莎白点头:“是啊,不过,税率应该能控制在15%左右,到时候,新闻集团内部稍微凑一下,家里不用卖股票,大概就能完税,我们家可没你这么大只。说起来,你的个人资产这么庞大,国税局肯定会死死盯着你,你想像其他家族那样不用交税顺利把资产传承下去,绝对不是一件容易的事情。” Eric said with ease: „Internal Revenue Service people control, so long as is not the machine, that is easy to do.” 艾瑞克却轻松道:“国税局到底还是人控制的,只要不是机器,那就好办。” Such was chatting, the vehicle arrived at the Hollywood Santa Monica avenue quickly. 这么聊着,车子很快到达了好莱坞圣莫妮卡大街。 Today was Miramax manufacture the premiere of that «Horse Language», the release date of movie on November 6, was The Day After Tomorrow. 今天是米拉麦克斯制作的那部《马语者》的首映礼,影片的上映日期在11月6日,也就是后天。 Invests a largest movie as Miramax until now, Weinstein Brothers also exceptionally attaches great importance to this project, but, choice on November 6 this running schedule, except for Weinstein Brothers regularly movie release operation technique, on the other hand is also but action. 作为米拉麦克斯迄今为止投资规模最大的一部电影,韦恩斯坦兄弟对这个项目也异常重视,不过,选择11月6日这个档期,除了韦恩斯坦兄弟惯常的电影发行运作手法,另一方面也是无奈之举。 „Starting from next week, the average every week two new pieces, the middle also had «Mission: Impossible 3» and «Star Pre-war Biography 1» super big piece, Harvey also can only choose this running schedule like this, although there is a risk, but this was also the safest release pattern,” Elizabeth explained: „Mentioned this, that side the Columbia two movies, the running schedule of choice may be really interesting actually, «The Faculty» placed on November 13, with 《Ted》 as well as «Star Trek: Revolt» presses together «Stepmom» that Julia develops followed behind «Star Pre-war Biography 1», I can imagine a tank to roll over a scene of bicycle.” “从下周开始,平均每周两部新片,中间还有《碟中谍3》和《星战前传1》这样的超级大片,哈维也只能选择这个档期了,虽然有风险,但这也算是最保险的发行模式,”伊丽莎白解释道:“说起这个,倒是哥伦比亚那边的两部电影,选择的档期可真有趣,《夺命高校》放在11月13日,和《泰迪熊》以及《星际迷航:起义》挤在一起,茱莉亚演的《亲亲小妈》跟在了《星战前传1》后面,我都能想象一辆坦克轧过一台自行车的场景了。” But Eric said: „This does not have the means that when my here attains Columbia, the running schedule has arranged. Moreover, the costs of these two movies are more provoking, «The Faculty» spent 30 million, «Stepmom» spends 50 million, in my opinion, the costs of these two movies can cut in half, I want to clutch now Julia, making her draw back the salary to me half, a pair of female's main family photo comedy actually wanted 20 million, amassed money.” 艾瑞克无奈道:“这也是没办法,我这边拿到哥伦比亚时,档期就已经定好了。而且,这两部影片的成本才更让人生气,《夺命高校》花了3000万,《亲亲小妈》花了5000万,在我看来,这两部电影的成本都可以减半,我现在都想把茱莉亚揪过来,让她把片酬退给我一半了,一部双女主的合家欢喜剧竟然要了2000万,抢钱啊。” „Her The Day After Tomorrow can come back from Paris probably, when she comes back from Paris, you held down to hit her one to be good,” “她后天大概就能从巴黎回来,等她从巴黎回来,你按住打她一顿就好了,” „That was too cheap she,” Eric pinched start knuckle ‚making a determined effort’ saying: „At least must hit two.” “那就太便宜她了,”艾瑞克捏着手指节‘发狠’道:“至少要打两顿。” „Hehe,” Elizabeth smiles, remembers a matter, asked: „When do you plan to go to London?” “呵呵,”伊丽莎白笑起来,想起一件事,又问道:“你打算什么时候去伦敦？” Fifth Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show must hold immediately, to promote the Victoria’s Secret brand in Europe, this big show chooses in London conducts. Because is quite important one, Eric will also attend. 第五届维密大秀马上就要举行,为了在欧洲推广维密品牌,这届大秀选择在伦敦举办。因为是比较重要的一届,艾瑞克也将出席。 „10 th” Eric said: „Big show was held on the 12 th, I two days overtook on the line ahead of time, but must come back earlier, after all, here also these many matters.” “10号吧”艾瑞克道:“大秀12日举行,我提前两天赶过去就行,还要早点回来,毕竟,这边还这么多事情。” „Ahem,” Elizabeth suddenly light snort|hum, said: „You want a bit faster to come back to be strange, Jealous-Daddy, that many pretty daughters.” “哼哼,”伊丽莎白突然轻哼一声,道:“你想快点回来才怪,Jealous-Daddy嘛,那么多漂亮女儿。” Eric put out a hand to pick up the chin of Elizabeth to collect with a smile to kiss, said: „Or you and I go together, I make them shout you Jealous-Mommy.” 艾瑞克笑着伸手托起伊丽莎白的下巴凑过去亲了下,道:“要不你和我一起去,我让她们喊你Jealous-Mommy。” Elizabeth opens the strange hand of Eric: „!” 伊丽莎白打开艾瑞克的怪手:“啊呸！” Before the vehicle arrives at the theater of Santa Monica avenue, the «Horse Language» premiere elects in the flagship theater of North America first yard line REGR. 车子来到圣莫妮卡大街的一家影院前,《马语者》的首映礼选在北美第一大院线REGR旗下的一家旗舰影院。 At this time, by theater front red carpet has been filled with the reporter and movie fan, possibly has any heavyweight honored guest to walk on red carpet, has not gotten out, can hear intermittent cheers. 此时,影院前面红毯两侧已经挤满了记者和影迷,可能是有什么重量级嘉宾正走在红毯上,还没下车,就能够听到一阵阵欢呼声。 Under staff's guidance, Cadillac car has stopped slightly the moment, opens to the red carpet end, Eric goes down the car(riage) first, changes to another side to pull Elizabeth, they move toward red carpet together. 在工作人员的引导下,凯迪拉克轿车稍微停顿了片刻,才开向红毯尽头,艾瑞克先走下车,转到另一边挽住伊丽莎白,两人一起走向红毯。 Compared with star who these Chinese dress beautiful play the part, their wear appear are very optional, Eric one daily black western-style clothes, Elizabeth is also only a quality compensation blue color beam long skirt, but, they step red carpet, any other honored guests who the stir that causes actually surpasses the appearance. 与那些华服美饰的明星相比,两人的穿着都显得很是随意,艾瑞克一套日常的黑色西服,伊丽莎白也只是一条水蓝色束腰长裙,不过,两人踏上红毯,引起的轰动却超过到场的其他任何一个嘉宾。 Because of the topic of these days about Eric continuously, not only the cheers unceasing movie fan, the red carpet both sides reporters are stimulated, presses the shutter crazily at the same time, but also loud was asking the question to them, if were not the red carpet both sides securities maintains with every effort, the reporters even must dash the fence to rush to side them. 因为这段时间关于艾瑞克的话题此起彼伏,不只是欢呼声不断的影迷,红毯两侧的记者都亢奋起来,疯狂按动快门的同时,还大声向两人问着问题,如果不是红毯两侧的安保尽力维持,记者们甚至要撞破防护栏冲到两人身边。 Eric and Elizabeth completely unvexed gradually pass through red carpet, enters the theater. 艾瑞克和伊丽莎白则是完全不受干扰地缓步走过红毯,进入影院内部。 In recent years, Eric has had consciousness region own different woman to appear in the face of the public, like this continues, although never has to explain anything to the outside, but many people also slowly accepted him to have several facts of girlfriends. 最近几年,艾瑞克一直有意识地带着自己的不同女人出现在公众面前,这样持续下来,虽然从来没有对外解释过什么,但很多人也都慢慢接受了他有好几个女友的事实。 This actually is also Eric the purpose that wants to serve. 这其实也是艾瑞克想要达到的目的。 Personal connection that Weinstein Brothers these years accumulate is very formidable, goes to the theater hall, the surroundings had come from the capacity that all parties' honored guests push, everybody was chatting anything in threes and fours, saw that Eric and Elizabeth appeared, has encircled in abundance. 韦恩斯坦兄弟这些年来积累的人脉还是非常强大的,来到影院大厅,周围已经被来自各方的嘉宾挤的满满当当,大家正在三五成群地聊着什么,看到艾瑞克和伊丽莎白出现,纷纷围了上来。 Everybody exchanged greetings, Elizabeth is drawn by Harvey Weinstein to discusses anything at the same time, Eric and «Horse Language» Director Robert. Redford chatted a while, that side Elizabeth, a golden hair girl of wear strip white one-piece dress will walk: „Mr. Williams, saw you really happily, did you still remember me?” 大家寒暄了一阵,伊丽莎白被哈维.韦恩斯坦拉到一边商量什么,艾瑞克与《马语者》导演罗伯特.雷德福聊了一会儿,正要去伊丽莎白那边,一个穿着条白色连衣裙的金发女孩就走了过来:“威廉姆斯先生,真高兴又见到你了,你还记得我吗？” „Naturally,” Eric nods with a smile: „You may that child, called Scarlet. Johnson, right? You may be really attractive today.” “当然,”艾瑞克笑着点头:“你是可儿的那个小朋友,叫斯嘉丽.约翰逊,对吗？你今天可真漂亮。” „Thanks,” Scarlet is somewhat shy, said: „Mr. Williams, I must help me attain this role thank you.” “谢谢,”斯嘉丽有些羞涩,道:“威廉姆斯先生,我还要谢谢你帮我拿到这个角色呢。” Eric shakes the head: „This does not use but actually, actually I have not helped, your result obtained the approval of Harvey.” 艾瑞克摇头:“这倒不用,其实我并没有帮什么忙,还是你自己的成绩得到了哈维的认可。” Before Scarlet found the opportunity gathers up, and Eric with great difficulty said that several words, she does not want such very much not to have the nutrition smalltalk, but, she just about to continues is anything, Elizabeth and Harvey walked toward Eric, Scarlet must the topic that gave up just thinking , the politeness and Harvey they have greeted, somewhat lost gets out of the way. 斯嘉丽好不容易找到机会凑上前和艾瑞克说几句话,她可不想只是这么很没营养地客套,不过,她刚要继续是什么,伊丽莎白和哈维就朝艾瑞克这边走了过来,斯嘉丽只得放弃刚刚想到的话题,礼貌地和哈维两人打过招呼,有些失落地走开。 „Has the potential kid very much,” sees the form that Scarlet gets out of the way, Harvey approved one, said: „Eric, we go, immediately must start.” “很有潜力的小家伙,”看着斯嘉丽走开的身影,哈维赞了一句,又道:“艾瑞克,我们进去吧,马上就要开始了。” Eric nods, felt that Elizabeth very natural pulls his arm, on the arm is actually an ache transmits, but said: „I may anything not do, but also to little girl.” 艾瑞克点点头,感觉伊丽莎白很自然地挽住他的手臂,胳膊上却是一阵疼痛传来,无奈道:“我可什么都没做啊,还只是给小女孩。” Elizabeth despised very much stared Eric one: „You like the little girl obviously.” 伊丽莎白很鄙视地瞪了艾瑞克一眼:“你明明就喜欢小女孩。” „You are the slander.” “你这是诽谤。” „How did Drew say?” “德鲁怎么说？” „Good, I surrender.” “好吧,我投降。”
