吃过早饭,将维吉尼娅的那一份放到冰箱里,告别了依旧趴在床上修养的女郎,艾瑞克才开车来到萤火虫公司,今天还有一部分女演员需要试镜。Justarrived at the company, hehad hauled in the officebyJeffrey, did not needto askthathaving a look atothercompanyseveralemployeesto lookownthatdim daylight|darklookjust knowswhat's the matter. 《Los Angeles Times》asLos Angelesmost well-knownnewspaper, does not have the networkandinformationinthismainlyby the paper the age of mediumandtelevisiondissemination, the residentsubscriptionlead of bigLos Angelesareaisquitehigh, therefore, Ericcanaffirmthatnowcompanyallpeopledefinitelyknowthatnews that onnewspaperpresented.
刚到公司,他就被杰弗里拉进了办公室,不用问,看看公司其他几个员工看自己那暧丨昧的眼神就知道是怎么回事了。《洛杉矶时报》作为洛杉矶最知名的一份报纸,在这个没有网络、信息主要靠纸质媒介和电视传播的年代,大洛杉矶地区的居民订阅率还是相当高的,因此,艾瑞克可以肯定,现在公司所有人都肯定知道了报纸上出现的那则消息。Facing the look that Jeffreyworries about, the opposite partyhas not opened the mouth, Erichastilyexplained: „Jeffrey, Iknowthatthistrulyismynegligence. ButJenniferConnellyhas rejectedthisrole, therefore, after waiting for the rolelistto announcein the future, thisrumorwill definitely collapse of itself.”
面对杰弗里担忧的眼神,对方还没有开口,艾瑞克就连忙解释道:“杰弗里,我知道,这确实是我的疏忽。但詹妮弗・康纳利已经拒绝了这个角色,所以,等将来角色名单公布之后,这则谣言肯定会不攻自破。”Jeffreysighed, said: „Good, Eric, hopingyouto know that whatheis making, needsto relateKapoor, makessomepublic relations?”杰弗里叹了一口气,道:“好吧,艾瑞克,但愿你知道自己在做什么,需要联系卡普尔,做一些公关吗?”Ericshook the head: „Does not need, thismatterexplained that insteadwill be considered aswill conceal, will not pay attentionis the bestmeasure.”艾瑞克摇了摇头:“没必要,这种事情解释反而会被认为是掩饰,不理会才是最好的处理办法。”Jeffreynodded, puts out a documentto giveEric: „ThisisIacts according toyouropinion, had discussedwiththesesupportfinaloffer, besidesMotorola, otherhad determinedthataltogether3400,000USD, youdo not have the words of opinion, todayIwill signthesecontracts.”杰弗里点了点头,拿出一份文件递给艾瑞克:“这是我根据你的意见,跟那些赞助商谈过的最终报价,除了摩托罗拉外,其他都已经确定,总共340万美元,你没有意见的话,今天我会将这些合同签掉。”Ericreceivedto opento look, mustwaited forCruiseandHanksmakes a final decisionbe willingto signafterMotorola3 millionUSDgreatlyonly, otherhave set, highestLamborghinileft800,000USD, but when lowestMarvel Comicsonlyleft100,000USD, in the moviehighway robberAndyhas robbedfinancial companyis taking the record jacket of thinking ofcartoon, only then the scene of glance, 100,000USD were not few, before Eric, cannotaffirmexiting that thisadvertisementcansell.艾瑞克接过来翻开看了一遍,除了摩托罗拉的300万美元大单要等克鲁斯和汉克斯敲定之后才肯签约外,其他都已经定下,最高的兰博基尼出了80万美元,而最低的惊奇漫画只出了10万美元,电影中劫匪安迪抢劫财务公司时拿着的装着漫画的档案袋只有惊鸿一瞥的一个镜头,10万美元也不算少,艾瑞克之前都不能肯定这个广告能不能卖的出去。Sees the Marvel Comicsname, Ericsubconsciouslytouches the chin, thisis a biggold ore, mustbeforeopposite partytoease the financial pressuresells the roleauthorizationmassivelyeverywhererandomly, takesis good.
看到惊奇漫画的名字,艾瑞克不由下意识摸了摸下巴,这可是一座大金矿啊,必须要在对方为了缓解财务压力大规模到处乱卖角色授权之前,拿下才行。Theywere saying, AlanFismanhas sounded the gate of office: „Mr.Hansson, Eric, screen testtime.”
两人正说着,艾伦・菲斯曼敲响了办公室的门:“汉森先生,艾瑞克,试镜时间到了。”„Icomeimmediately,”Ericcomplied withone, the Alannodhas drawn back.
“我马上来,”艾瑞克应了一声,艾伦点头退了出去。„Imanaged the screen test, Jeffrey, pressedaboveconditionsigning. In the weekendrestswell, next weekwill start the 《Running Out of Time》enduringscenery, will be very definitely busy.”
“那我去主持试镜了,杰弗里,就按上面的条件签约吧。周末好好休息,下周就开始《暗战》的堪景,肯定会很忙。”„Iknowthat”Jeffreynodded, thenreveals a seeking vengeancelook: „So long asyouno longerlate at nightranto harassmeto be good.”
“我知道,”杰弗里点了点头,然后露出一个报怨的眼神:“只要你不再半夜三更跑来骚扰我就行了。”Ericcurled the lip, whispered, beckoned with the handto go out of the office.艾瑞克撇撇嘴,嘀咕了一句,摆摆手走出了办公室。Perhapssawon《Los Angeles Times》 the reasonaboutActordecided but not yet announcedthatnews, after the screen teststarts, consecutivelymanyscreen testActressappearabsent-minded.
或许是看到了《洛杉矶时报》上关于演员内定的那则消息的缘故,试镜开始后,连续好多个试镜女演员都显得心不在焉。Ericis also disinclinedto remindopposite partyanything, cannothavehopeaccidentallyto seize the opportunity, missedonlyhas also been ableto complain about itself.艾瑞克也懒得提醒对方任何事情,不能抱着万一的希望抓住机会,错过了也只能怨自己。„Next, GabrielMissAnuar.”
“下一位,加布里埃尔・安瓦尔小姐。”One about 18 -year-old petitewomanwalked, althoughputs onblackLittletallwith, but the height of girlas beforeless thanonemeterseven.
一个18岁左右的娇小女人走了进来,虽然穿着黑色小高跟,但女郎的身高依旧不足一米七。„Hello, IcalledGabrielAnuar.”
“大家好,我叫加布里埃尔・安瓦尔。”Erichas sized upcarefullyat presentwith the same agegirl, the high and steepnose, the thicklip, is having the characteristics of littleIndian, shouldbe a person of mixed blood. Readfrontmaterial, has not made the girldoto introduce oneselfaccording to the procedure, butasked: „MissAnuar, are youcatch upspeciallyfromUnited Kingdom?”艾瑞克仔细打量了一下眼前跟自己同龄的女孩,尖俏的鼻子,厚厚的嘴唇,带着少许印度人的特征,应该是一个混血儿。看了看面前的资料,并没有按照程序让女郎做自我介绍,而是问道:“安瓦尔小姐,你是专门从英国赶来的?”
The girlsnodded, microthicklipshows a charmingsmile: „Iwas borninDelphiSykescounty, butIalsogrow upinLondon.”
女郎点了点头,微厚的嘴唇露出一个迷人的微笑:“我出生在德尔赛克斯郡,不过我也在伦敦长大。”Ericsmiled, knows that the girlis trying to get closewithoneself, healsogrowsinLondontoeightyears old moves inLos Angeles . Moreover, Eric have the United Kingdomnationalityto the present, Williams, but one of the United Kingdomfivebigsurnames, regardless ofhedoes want, hewill be doomedto be included within the HollywoodBritishcircle.艾瑞克笑了笑,知道女郎在跟自己套近乎,他也是在伦敦成长到八岁才搬来洛杉矶,而且,艾瑞克自己到现在还拥有英国国籍,威廉姆斯可是英国五大姓氏之一,无论他愿不愿意,他都会注定被划入好莱坞英裔圈子当中。„, MissAnuar, inmaterialshowed that youhave attended the playdancing school, will youjump the Tango?”
“那么,安瓦尔小姐,资料上显示你上过戏剧舞蹈学校,请问你会跳探戈吗?”
The girlshave hesitated, shook the head: „Not, butIhave studiedtenyears of ballet, if desired, Icaninlearn the Tangomostin a short time.”
女郎迟疑了一下,还是摇了摇头:“不会,不过我学过十年的芭蕾舞,如果需要的话,我可以在最短时间内学会探戈。”Ericreveals an appreciationexpression: „MissAnuar, Ilikesyourhonestyvery much. ButIthinkyour not suitablethisrole, thereforedid not need of screen test.”艾瑞克露出一个赞赏的表情:“安瓦尔小姐,我很喜欢你的坦诚。但我觉得你并不适合这个角色,所以没有试镜的必要了。”
The girlhears the formerhalf a wordpraise of Eric, notwith enough timehappy, heard the Ericfollowingwords, suddenlystays there, in the bigeyeis rapidly dimlightmist, could not speaksuffering from injustice.
女孩听到艾瑞克的前半句夸奖,还没有来得及高兴,就听到了艾瑞克后面的话,一时间呆坐在那里,大眼睛里迅速朦胧出一层淡淡的雾气,委屈地说不出话来。Initiallyshesaw the FireflyissueEricWilliamsnewpieceHeroinescreen testnews, huggedcompletelyis buying the prizevolume the psychologyto mail outownmaterial, has not thought that received the invitation of screen testunexpectedly, the been wild with joygirlconvinced the old-fashionedfatherwith great difficulty, the one person alonecaught up withLos Angelesto participate inthisscreen test, has not thought that the opposite partylinked a performanceopportunitynot to overrulehertooneself, thisattackmadeshesadwishcryinstantaneously.
当初她看到萤火虫发布的艾瑞克・威廉姆斯新片女主角试镜消息,完全是抱着买奖卷的心理寄出了自己的资料,没想到竟然接到了试镜的邀请,欣喜若狂的女孩好不容易才说服古板的父亲,孤身赶来洛杉矶参加这次试镜,没想到对方连一个表演机会都没有给自己就把她否决了,这种打击让她瞬间难过的想要哭出来。„Oh, no,”Ericmustlower the headto writeanything, seesgirl'sresponse, beckons with the handhastily: „MissAnuar, like this, Ido not say.”
“哦,不,”艾瑞克本来要低头写些什么,看到女郎的反应,连忙摆摆手:“安瓦尔小姐,不要这样,我还没说完。”Girl'stearsalmostmustfall, hear the Ericwords, has wiped the corner of the eye, embarrassedhas actually gained ground, Erichanded over a lookfromassistant, the opposite partyhas delivered to front ofAnuaronebox of paper towelhastily.
女孩的眼泪几乎都要掉下来,听到艾瑞克的话,抹了抹眼角,却不好意思抬起头了,艾瑞克从身旁的助理递了个眼神,对方连忙将一盒纸巾送到安瓦尔面前。Cleanedunder the corner of the eyecarefully, Gabrielhas pulled out the vanity mirron in packageto look, daresto gain groundonce more: „Sorry, Director Williams, Iwas somewhat rude.”
小心地擦拭了下眼角,加布里埃尔掏出包里的化妆镜看了一下,才敢再次抬起头:“对不起,威廉姆斯导演,我有些失态了。”„Ismymistake,”Ericveryfeared that the womancries, takeson the responsibilityoneselfhastily: „Ijusthad not talked clearly, Iknowthatyouare only18 years old, catches up with the screen testfromUnited Kingdomfrom afaris not an easymatter.”
“是我的错,”艾瑞克还是挺怕女人哭的,连忙将责任揽到自己身上:“我刚刚没有说清楚,我知道,你才18岁,从英国千里迢迢赶来试镜并不是一件容易的事情。”„Understandingthank you, Mr. Williams.”
“谢谢你的理解,威廉姆斯先生。”„Isthis, reason thatMissAnuar, Ijustasked that youcanjump the Tango, is an role that in anothermoviebecauseyouare very suitableprepare for showingmy, thatisAlPacinoacts the leading role, youknowAlPacino?”
“是这样的,安瓦尔小姐,我刚刚之所以问你会不会跳探戈,是因为你很适合我正在筹拍的另外一部电影里的一个角色,那是阿尔・帕西诺主演的,你知道阿尔・帕西诺吗?”Gabrielnods: „Naturally, Ilooked atmanyyourDirector《Scent of a Woman》inUnited Kingdom, elegant bearingEdward that Mr. Pacinoplayedwas charming.”加布里埃尔点点头:“当然,我在英国看了好多遍您导演的《闻香识女人》,帕西诺先生饰演的风度翩翩的爱德华非常迷人。”„Thatis good, in the Alnextmovielacks a role of Tangogirl, isfirstHeroine in thatmovie, butmyeyessettled onyou, ifyoucanplaythatrole, Ibelieve that to the help of yourenterprise, definitelycomparesinmythismovieholds the post ofHeroineto be big.”
“那就好,阿尔下一部电影里缺少一个探戈女郎的角色,也是那部电影中的第一女主角,而我一眼就看中了你,如果你能将那个角色演好的话,我相信对你事业的帮助,肯定比在我这部电影里担任女主角还要大。”Gabrielheld the mentality of againdrawing a prize-winning ticketto participate in the screen test, shehas only participated performanceinUnited KingdomseveralTV series, had not reportedtooin a big wayhopes. Justreason that the collapse, wasbecause ofEricnotanyindicationveto, enablinghershorttime to accept.加布里埃尔本来就是抱着再一次中奖的心态来参加试镜的,她在英国只参演过几部电视剧,本来就没有报太大希望。刚刚之所以崩溃,还是因为艾瑞克没有任何征兆地否决,让她短时间能以接受。Nowsuddenlyhearsthisgoodnews, girlagainsuch asinfallingdream, after 《Pretty Woman》, AlagainbecomesAlevelsuperstar that is all the rage the world, can, inheholds the post in the movie that plays the lead, even ifplays a youngsupporting role, Gabrielwill jumphappily, let alonefirstHeroine.
现在突然听到这个好消息,女孩再一次如坠梦中,《风月》之后,阿尔再一次成为风靡全世界的A级巨星,能在他担任主演的电影中哪怕出演一个小配角,加布里埃尔都会高兴的跳起来,更何况还是第一女主角。„Mr. Williams, Ido not knowhowreallyshouldthankyou.”Girlboth handsholdin the front, a facesaidexcitedly.
“威廉姆斯先生,我真不知道该如何感谢你了。”女孩双手捧在胸前,一脸激动地说道。Thing that Ericjustmustwritefinished, making the assistantgive the girl, said with a smile: „MissAnuar, leavesfirsthappilyis too early, althoughIreallyhaveto decidethatmovie character the right, butImustconsider that AlandDirectorMartinopinion of Mr.Brest, youhave about oneweeksetup time, ifwhen the time comesyoudisplaytoobadly, I can only say that was sorry.”艾瑞克将刚刚要写的东西写完,让助理递给女郎,笑道:“安瓦尔小姐,先别高兴的太早,虽然我确实有决定那部电影角色的权利,但我还是要考虑阿尔和导演马丁・布莱斯特先生的意见,你有一个星期左右的准备时间,到时候如果你表现太差,那我就只能说抱歉了。”„Iwill certainly try hard,”Gabrielwas saying, received the paper, looked above onestring of numbersandseveralmessages, asked: „Mr. Williams, is this?”
“我一定会努力的,”加布里埃尔说着,接过纸条,看了看上面一串号码和几句留言,问道:“威廉姆斯先生,这是?”„United Talent Agency, Oh, isuniteseliteBrokerage FirmCEOKapoor the Mr. Sidtelephone, youneedto hittohim, makinghimarrangetemporarymanagerforyou, helpingyoulook for a danceteacher, undergoesoneweek of Tangodance steptraining. Ifoneweeklater, yourperformancepassed the approval of AlandMartin, youneedto joinUnited Talent Agency, MissAnuar, do youwant?”
“UTA,哦,就是联合精英经纪公司CEO卡普尔・希德先生的电话,你需要打给他,让他为你安排一位临时经纪人,帮助你找一位舞蹈老师,接受一个星期的探戈舞步训练。如果一星期后,你的表现通过了阿尔和马丁的认可,那你需要加入UTA,安瓦尔小姐,你愿意吗?”CankeepHollywoodis the foreignActorlong-awaitedmatter, Anuarnodswithout hesitation: „Naturally, Iwant.”
能够留在好莱坞是很多外籍演员梦寐以求的事情,安瓦尔毫不犹豫地点头:“当然,我愿意。”GabrielAnuaris purely an accident, Ericdoes not haveanythingto attemptwith the same agegirltothis, but the opposite party is just originally the Tangogirl in 《Scent of a Woman》, AnuarandAlthatTango of Pacinomay be called the 《Scent of a Woman》pen of adding the finishing touch.加布里埃尔・安瓦尔纯属一个意外,艾瑞克对这个跟自己同龄的女孩也没有什么企图,只不过对方刚好是原本《闻香识女人》中的探戈女郎,安瓦尔与阿尔・帕西诺的那段探戈堪称《闻香识女人》中的点睛之笔。Since the opposite partycanseveralyearsappearahead of timehere, is a fate, Ericpushes the boat along, thinks that girl'sperformancewill not disappointhim.
既然对方能提前好几年出现在这里,也算是一段缘分,艾瑞克就顺水推舟,想必女孩的表现也不会让他失望。Packed offGabriel, Ericlets loose the nextmaterialto look atone: BrookeShields
送走加布里埃尔,艾瑞克放开下一份资料看了一眼:波姬・小丝Alsois a Hollywoodlegendbeautiful woman.
呵,又是一位好莱坞传奇美女啊。ComparesinJennifer the clarity of Connelly, entersBrooke of screen testroomafterwardbeauty of Shields, looked likeinEricwere manyseveralpoints of swift and fierce. Howeverfromseveralstaffobviouslyshiningvision, Ericunderstands that it is said that has Brooke of fourcountryhigh blood the Shieldslookconforms to the aesthetic standard of westernerobviously, will otherwise not be called‚the eighth largest miracle’.
相比于詹妮弗・康纳利的清纯,随后走进试镜室的波姬・小丝的美,在艾瑞克看来就多了几分凌厉。不过从身边几位工作人员明显发亮的目光中,艾瑞克明白据说拥有四国贵族血统的波姬・小丝的相貌显然更加符合西方人的审美观,不然的话也不会被戏称为‘第八大奇迹’了。
