Although will favor the Firefly system's benefit as far as possible, but Eric truly completely has not monopolized the ambition of 3 D market, this is actually impossible. 虽然会尽可能地倾向于萤火虫体系本身的利益,但艾瑞克确实没有完全垄断3D市场的野心,这其实也根本不可能。 After all, polarized light 3 D truly is not the too difficult technology, except for IMAX, industry in also has other great curtain forms. 毕竟,偏光3D确实不是太难的技术,除了IMAX,业内也有着其他巨幕形式。 If the Firefly system attempts to monopolize, finally will only create other different 3 D and great curtain form appears. The competitions of double standards will consume the entire Hollywood resources without doubt, similarly does not favor 3 D and benign development of great curtain movie. 萤火虫体系如果企图垄断,结果只会造成其他不同的3D和巨幕格式出现。不同标准的竞争无疑会消耗整个好莱坞的资源,同样不利于3D和巨幕电影的良性发展。 Therefore, these days, Firefly Group opened the 3 D transformation and IMAX transformation to the future to other Production Studio has made the preliminary fixed price. 因此,这段时间,萤火虫集团内部已经对将来向其他制作公司开放3D转制和IMAX转制做出了初步定价。 In order to raise the profession threshold and achieves filters the inferior movie source as far as possible the goal, RealD Corporation in view of the charge of ordinary 2 D movie transformation 3 D movie will be every minute 3 ten thousand USD, that side IMAX Corporation, the IMAX form transformation of 2 D edition for every minute 1 ten thousand USD, the 3 D edition charge will turn time, will be 2 ten thousand USD. 为了提高行业门槛并达到尽可能过滤劣质片源的目的,RealD公司针对普通2D电影转制3D电影的收费将是每分钟3万美元,IMAX公司那边,2D版本的IMAX格式转制为每分钟1万美元,3D版本收费翻倍,为2万美元。 This means that when according to the Hollywood average 2 hours the long movie calculates, wants to distribute 3 D and 3 D-IMAX edition, but the preliminary transformation expense will achieve 6 million USD. 这就意味着,按照好莱坞平均2个小时时长的影片来计算,想要发行3D和3D-IMAX版本,只是前期的转制费用就将达到600万美元。 Although in the future through reducing 3 D and IMAX row of piece scale, everywhere copy reuse and other methods, Film Studio can save expensive 3 D and IMAX film copy budget to a great extent, but the preliminary transformation expense is unable to save absolutely. 虽然将来通过降低3D和IMAX排片规模、海内外拷贝重复利用等手段,电影公司可以在很大程度上节省昂贵的3D和IMAX胶片拷贝预算,但前期的转制费用是绝对无法省却的。 Meanwhile, as a result of the latent barrier of double D authentication, other 3 D Production Studio will be very difficult to push in the movie source transformation market, the Firefly system in fact can also from source control entire 3 D and IMAX movie industrial development trend. 同时,由于双D认证的潜在壁垒,其他3D制作公司将很难挤入片源转制市场,萤火虫体系实际上也就能够从源头控制整个3D和IMAX电影产业发展走势。 Katzenberg must hurry back to Burbank group Headquarters, they have exchanged a while, areas on the administrative area and road between movie studio distinguishes, Eric returns itself in the office in administrative area. 卡森伯格还要赶回伯班克集团总部,两人交流了一会儿,就在行政区和摄影棚区之间的甬道上分别,艾瑞克转回自己在行政区的办公室。 Turns on the computer conveniently, sits down behind the desk, Eric opens the company to distribute the end of the year running schedule movie Box Office prospect assessment report that the department just completed. Thanksgiving and movies of Christmas day two big popular running schedules already determined, the gradual disclosure that but appraised along with recently a series of movie preview reputation and audience, distributed the department to put out the related report. 随手打开电脑,在办公桌后面坐下,艾瑞克翻开公司发行部门刚刚完成的年底档期影片票房前景评估报告。感恩节和圣诞节两大热门档期的影片早已确定,只是随着最近一系列影片试映口碑和观众评价的逐渐披露,发行部门才拿出相关的报告出来。 Today is on November 9. 今天已经是11月9日。 Before then, new line Film Industry «Final Destination 3» and Universal Pictures «Human bones Puzzle» separately 5 around Halloween two weeks on October 29 and on November screened. 在此之前,新线影业的《死神来了3》和环球影业的《人骨拼图》分别在10月29日和11月5日万圣节前后两周上映。 As the classics horror film brand of new line, «Final Destination 3» are maintaining the consistent style and standard of series, Box Office therefore is also quite stable. The 25 million USD production cost, first week Box Office achieves 2571 ten thousand USD, it is expected that North America total Box Office will break through 50 million USD, the global Box Office broken hundred million also not too many suspenses. 作为新线的经典恐怖片品牌,《死神来了3》保持着系列的一贯风格和水准,票房也因此相当稳定。2500万美元的制作成本,首周票房就达到2571万美元,预计北美总票房将突破5000万美元,全球票房破亿也并没有太多悬念。 Compares, Universal Pictures «Human bones Puzzle» that acts the leading role by black person superstar Denzel Washington, the production cost actually reaches as high as 73 million USD, on November 5 by November 7 first weekend three days of Box Office actually only then 1672 ten thousand USD, the first week estimated that Box Office also has 2 3 million USD, wants about bottom 2 million USD compared with «Final Destination». 相比起来,环球影业由黑人巨星丹泽尔・华盛頓主演的《人骨拼图》,制作成本却高达7300万美元,11月5日到11月7日首周末三天票房却只有1672万美元,首周预计票房也只有2300万美元,比《死神来了》还要底200万美元左右。 Eric is glancing through the document in hand, discovered that starts from «Human bones Puzzle», to December 29 RB year last day of «Hurricane», Universal Pictures this will promote five movies at the end of the year one after another. 艾瑞克翻阅着手中的文件,发现从《人骨拼图》开始,到12月29RB年度最后一天的《飓风》,环球影业这个年底将陆续将推出五部电影。 And «Hurricane» is Denzel Washington acts the leading role similarly, the movie of this name somewhat disaster piece aura is actually a bioflavonoid, spends 3 8 million USD. 其中《飓风》同样是丹泽尔・华盛頓主演,这部名字有几分灾难片气息的电影其实是一部传记片,耗资3800万美元。 Localization of Universal Pictures to this movie to prize piece. Just, shows the echo from other earlier film festivals, the «Hurricane» quality is obviously unsatisfactory, in the Eric memory does not have the award-winning information of many this movie. 环球影业对这部影片的定位是冲奖片。只不过,从前期其他一些电影节展映反响来看,《飓风》的质量显然不如人意,艾瑞克记忆中也没有多少这部影片的获奖信息。 Besides «Human bones Puzzle» and «Hurricane», Universal Pictures one after another will also promote «Devil End» and gold/metal who Schwarzenegger acts the leading role in «Man and Ethan who on Moon» Kerry acts the leading role in Hawk acts the leading role in «that Loves at the Snowflake three movies of Incense stick Pine». 除了《人骨拼图》和《飓风》,环球影业还将陆续推出施瓦辛格主演的《魔鬼末日》、金・凯瑞主演的《月亮上的男人》和伊桑・霍克主演的《爱在香杉树的雪花》三部电影。 In light of recently some trends of Seagram group, obviously, Michael Eisner arrangement so intensive issuance plan, promoted Universal Pictures 1999 for the maximum degree the achievement, for maintained in the Universal Pictures exchanging ownerships process own status increases the chip. 结合最近西格拉姆集团的一些动向,显然,迈克尔・艾斯纳安排如此密集的发行计划,是为了最大程度提升环球影业1999年度的业绩,为在环球影业易主过程中保持自己的地位增加筹码。 Just, according to Eric own memory, is the appraisal of Firefly release department, around this five movies do not have the potential that many Box Office sell greatly. Moreover, has zero to have the entire detail from «Human bones Puzzle» 73 million USD and «Hurricane» 3 8 million USD these production costs, Michael Eisner obviously as far as possible cost control, but the effect is not obviously ideal. 只不过,无论是根据艾瑞克自己的记忆,还是萤火虫发行部门的评估,这前后五部电影都没有多少票房大卖的潜质。而且,从《人骨拼图》7300万美元、《飓风》@3800万美元这些制作成本有零有整的细节来看,迈克尔・艾斯纳明显在尽可能地控制成本,但效果显然并不理想。 And, Schwarzenegger «Devil End» production cost as before wind to 100 million USD, gold/metal Kerry's «Man on Moon» has spent 8 2 million USD similarly. Eric had not heard Ethan Hawk movie «Loves in Snowflake of Incense stick Pine», the budget of 35 million USD also appears somewhat odd. 其中,施瓦辛格的《魔鬼末日》制作成本依旧飙到了1亿美元,金・凯瑞的《月亮上的男人》同样花掉了8200万美元。艾瑞克根本就没有听说过的伊桑・霍克爱情片《爱在香杉树的雪花》,3500万美元的预算也显得有些离谱。 Universal Pictures several months ago by «The Mummy 3» and that «Notting Hill» sells greatly, summer the Box Office share rank of files almost with Fox quite, is next to Firefly Group. 环球影业几个月前凭借大卖的《木乃伊3》和《诺丁山》,暑期档的票房份额排名几乎与福克斯相当,仅次于萤火虫集团。 But is very obvious, at present these five appear some movies of being eager for quick success and immediate gain, likely instead implicates the Universal Pictures this year's overall achievement. 但很显然,眼下这五部显得有些急功近利的影片,很可能反而拖累环球影业今年的整体业绩。 Then, this condition also has very big relations with the Firefly system actually. 说起来,这种状态其实也与萤火虫体系有着很大关系。 Arnold Schwarzenegger and gold/metal Kerry, Denzel Washington these people, obviously are Hollywood performance-to-price ratio very low super superstar. 阿诺・施瓦辛格、金・凯瑞、丹泽尔・华盛頓这些人,显然都是好莱坞性价比非常低的超级巨星。 In recent years, because the Firefly system force suppresses the superstar salary cost control the movie-making strategy, insisted a star who sale price is unable with the situation that in Firefly, Fox, Metro Goldwyn Mayer and recent Columbia Film Industry achieves the cooperation, can only change Warner, Universal and Paramount as well as other has capital strength Production Studio of single-handedly. 最近几年,由于萤火虫体系强力压制巨星片酬控制成本的制片策略,很多坚持身价的一线明星在无法与萤火虫、福克斯、米高梅和最近的哥伦比亚影业达成合作的情况下,只能转向华纳、环球和派拉蒙以及其他一些拥有资本实力的独力制作公司。 The star core system idea that Hollywood for long forms is eventually impossible in one single day to change, these year of Hollywood prosperous also makes the film finance appear very easy. 好莱坞长久以来形成的明星核心制观念终究不可能一朝一夕改变,这些年好莱坞的兴盛也让电影融资显得非常容易。 Therefore, other three big as well as enter the capital that Hollywood pans for gold also to change their star to illuminate single Quanshou to these. Continues to provide large amount salary for them, produces the movie that quality good and evil intermingled costs actually stay at a high level continually. 于是,另外三大以及一些进入好莱坞淘金的资本也就对这些转向自己的明星照单全收。继续为他们提供着巨额片酬,持续制作一部部质量良莠不齐成本却居高不下的电影。 Except for Universal these movies, knows on Eric, because «Father Forward Flushing» Box Office of summer files attains greatly successfully, Warner directly started out 20 million USD to add the manufacture budget of large amount salaries as well as 8 5 million USD that Box Office was divided into for Adam Sandler new piece «Devil Successor». Will the «Violent wind X-Men» production cost that Smith and Warner cooperate started to exceed expenditures similarly, Tom in recent years also as before is maintaining a Paramount Corporation salary highest Elder Brother position. 除了环球的这几部电影,就艾瑞克所知,由于暑期档的《老爸向前冲》票房大获成功,华纳直接为亚当・桑德勒新片《魔鬼接班人》开出了2000万美元加票房分成的巨额片酬以及8500万美元的制作预算。威尔・史密斯与华纳合作的《飙风战警》制作成本同样已经开始超支,阿汤哥最近几年也依旧保持着派拉蒙公司旗下片酬最高的一哥位置。 Then, once historical, even if many years later, although cases had proven salary odd super superstar is by no means indispensable, but Hollywood as before completely has not actually changed does not hesitate the cost to pursue the idea of superstar. 说起来,曾经的历史上,即使很多年后,虽然一次次的案例都已经证明了片酬离谱的超级巨星并非不可或缺的,但好莱坞却依旧没有彻底改变不惜成本追逐巨星的观念。 In reads the document in hand, while ponders these issues, the office door was knocked knocking, Eric has complied with one, Meyer held a document to walk. 正在一边翻看手中的文件,一边思考这些问题,办公室房门被人敲了敲,艾瑞克应了一声,梅耶尔捧着一份文件走了进来。 Hands in front of a blue folder Eric, Meyer said: „Eric, the Canada that side spread news, the Nokia team came to an arrangement about the purchase agreement with RIM Corporation officially, the rate was 200 million 60 million USD, this price and beginning of the year quite, but has been higher than 27% compared with the RIM current market value.” 将一份蓝色的文件夹递到艾瑞克面前,梅耶尔道:“艾瑞克,加拿大那边传来消息,诺基亚团队已经正式和RIM公司谈妥了收购协议,成交价为2亿6000万美元,这个价格与年初相当,但比RIM当前的市值高出了27%。” RIM naturally is the brand of Blackberry has the company, in the Eric memory, many years later, RIM merges the corporate name and Blackberry unification. RIM自然便是黑莓手机的品牌持有公司,艾瑞克记忆中,直到很多年后,RIM才将公司名称与黑莓手机统一合并。 These days, the Firefly system basically is implementing to buy the pattern, does not arrive at the purchase of 300 million USD in view of RIM Corporation, somewhat is even nothing to speak of regarding the expansion plan of entire Firefly system. 这段时间,萤火虫体系基本上都在实施着买买买模式,针对RIM公司不到3亿美元的收购,对于整个萤火虫体系的扩张计划甚至有些不值一提。 However, as a result of Eric I attaching great importance to blackberry, the Nokia aspect is also careful to this purchase. Along with last year Jorma leaving job of Ollila, Eric has also been strengthening the control to Nokia, preventing Nokia to continue to take once old route. 不过,由于艾瑞克本人对黑莓的重视,诺基亚方面对这次收购也非常上心。随着去年约玛・奥利拉的离职,艾瑞克也一直都在加强对诺基亚的控制,防止诺基亚继续走上曾经的老路。 Opens the document, Eric is reading the transaction provision of Nokia and blackberry, notes the desk opposite Meyer slim and graceful form, looked up girl one eyes, said: „Therefore, you no longer considered really does continue to keep side me?” 翻开文件,艾瑞克阅读着诺基亚与黑莓的交易条款,注意到办公桌对面梅耶尔亭亭玉立的身影,抬头看了女郎一眼,道:“所以,你真的不再考虑一下继续留在我身边吗？” Meyer gazes at the desk opposite man, in the vision is having one not to abandon similarly lightly. 梅耶尔注视着办公桌对面的男人,目光中同样带着一丝淡淡不舍。 Along with the explosion of «Gravity» reputation, these days, Eric once more becomes the focal point of many media and theory. This man is such dazzling, like Sun, many people under normal conditions will not look to the sky, but occasionally gains ground, can always note a round ray to sparkle. 随着《地心引力》口碑的爆炸,这段时间,艾瑞克再次成为很多媒体與论的焦点。或者,这个男人一直都是这么耀眼吧,就像太阳,很多人通常情况下都不会望向天空,但偶尔抬头,总能注意到一轮光芒闪耀。 Silent the moment, Meyer said: „I had discussed with Mr. Maikenai, I will go to the YOS system design department to be some time software engineer first, is familiar with various aspect technical details, three months later transfers the hardware department.” 沉默了片刻,梅耶尔还是道:“我已经和麦克奈利先生讨论过了,我会先去YOS系统研发部门担任一段时间的软件工程师,重新熟悉一下各方面技术细节,三个月后转去硬件部门。” Listens to the Meyer well-organized career planning, Eric to understand that the girl regard has decided that also no longer persuaded, said with a smile: „Some are not willingly, wants to tie up you really in the side.” 听着梅耶尔条理清晰的职业规划,艾瑞克明白女郎心意已决,也就不再劝说,却还是笑道:“有些不甘心啊,真想一直把你绑在身边。” „You,” Meyer, said: „You can look for one again.” “你,”梅耶尔顿了下,道:“你可以再找一个。” „Does not look,” Eric shakes the head, says with a smile: „I am also the person who very keeps old friendships in mind, later follows on a Zzanka person side me, naturally, when you want to come back, momentarily told me.” “不找了,”艾瑞克摇摇头,笑道:“我还算是个挺念旧的人,以后就让卡莉一个人跟在我身边,当然,你什么时候想回来,随时告诉我。” Meyer hesitant, nodded gently, has not said anything again. 梅耶尔犹豫了下,轻轻点了点头,却没再说什么。 Eric had discussed several with Nokia CEO Ollie Kallas before this in detail times the arrangement about RIM Corporation, even also involves to change name to RIM as the detail of blackberry directly. 艾瑞克此前已经和诺基亚CEO奥利・卡拉斯苏欧详细讨论过好几次关于RIM公司的安排,甚至还涉及到将RIM直接改名为黑莓的细节。 Therefore, carefully read the purchase agreement of Nokia and blackberry, signs the direct name, Eric also temporarily lets loose this matter, Nokia naturally according to will then discuss that the good existing plan completes the layout of Blackberry. 因此,将诺基亚与黑莓的收购协议书仔细阅读了一遍,签上直接的名字,艾瑞克也就暂时将这件事放开,诺基亚接下来自然会按照已经讨论好的既定方案完成黑莓手机的布局。 Before Elizabeth, telephones, indicated that Eric has completed in the design manuscript of Tasmania Island manor. After Eric gets off work, rushed to Elizabeth and Julia in the mansion that Beverly Hills top. 伊丽莎白之前打电话过来,表示艾瑞克在澳洲塔斯马尼亚岛庄园的设计稿已经完成。艾瑞克下班之后,就赶到了伊丽莎白和茱莉亚在比弗利山顶的豪宅。 These days, although Eric and girls returned to Los Angeles, but, agents of Eric in Australia has actually been responsible for relating for him purchases the Tasmania Island land parcel. 这段时间,虽然艾瑞克和丫头都已经回到洛杉矶,不过,艾瑞克在澳洲的代理人却一直都在负责为他联系收购塔斯马尼亚岛地块。 To the Eric present net worth, various aspect economic values do not calculate that the high Tasmania Island land can say inexpensive. 200 square kilometers that Eric buys before this are equal to about 50000 acres lands, disburses does not arrive at 60 million USD. 相对于艾瑞克现在的身家来说,各方面经济价值都不算高的澳大利亚塔斯马尼亚岛土地可以说廉价之极。艾瑞克此前购入的200平方公里相当于50000英亩左右的土地,累计支出也才不到6000万美元。 Several months purchases continually, Eric the land scale in Tasmania Island having already over 1000 square kilometers. 几个月的持续收购下来,艾瑞克在塔斯马尼亚岛拥有的土地规模已经超过1000平方公里。 However, except for few pastures, other majorities is the primary forest lands of Tasmania Island, even meaning of somewhat virgin forest. It is said in the forest land also has the wild platypus. On this type of Earth the only discovered egg lives the mammal, although has high biological research value, but does not calculate the endangered species actually, is common in Australian each region distribution. 不过,除了很少一部分牧场,其他大部分都是塔斯马尼亚岛的原生林地,甚至有几分原始森林的意味。据说林地内还有野生的鸭嘴兽。这种地球上唯一被发现的卵生哺乳动物虽然拥有非常高的生物研究价值,但其实并不算濒危物种,在澳洲各地分布还算普遍。 Has bought the massive land parcels, is naturally impossible not to make the development transformation completely. 买下了大量的地块,自然也不可能完全不进行开发改造。 In many person ideas, Australia the request to the environmental protection seems to be harsh, but in fact exactly opposite. 在很多人观念里,澳大利亚似乎对环境保护的要求非常苛刻,但事实上恰好相反。 If were not bought by Eric, purchased the land parcel neighboring big piece original forest with Eric ahead of time, even has been included in the cutting plan. Compares, hopes that maintains complete virgin forest Eric instead is more like an environmentalist, in fact in the Eric bone also truly is an environmentalist, is only not the extreme. 如果不是被艾瑞克买下,与艾瑞克先期购买地块相邻的大片原生林,甚至已经列入了采伐计划。相比起来,更希望保持一块完整原始森林的艾瑞克反而更像是一个环保主义者,实际上艾瑞克骨子里也确实是一个环保主义者,只是并不极端。 Although will not make the wide scope transformation to that land, but has discussed after the women, Eric decided that constructs a taking vacation manor of Williams in the area. 虽然不会对那块土地进行大范围改造,但和女人们讨论过之后,艾瑞克还是决定在当地建造一处威廉姆斯家的度假庄园。 The local bully as Australia, Eric also gratefully entrusted this matter to Elizabeth, making her help itself relate the designer and engineering team in the area. 作为澳洲的地头蛇,艾瑞克也毫不客气地将这件事委托给了伊丽莎白,让她在当地帮自己联系设计师和工程团队。 „Has a look, address that they choose here, the south side is Arthur HB is a hill, the western two kilometers are the intercontinental roads, this is the surrounding picture, as well as some design manuscripts,” get Elizabeth home, Julia to prepare the supper to everybody, Eric and girl sit in the living room in a big way read one to fold the material that Australia transmits. Introduced probably, Elizabeth said: „Actually, if you want to buy the land, Queensland is the best choice, even if the Victoria province is good, why must choose Tasmania, there few individuals?” “看看,他们挑选的地址就在这里,南边是阿瑟HB边是一处山丘,西边两公里就是洲际公路,这是周围的照片,以及一些设计稿,”回到伊丽莎白家,茱莉亚给大家准备着晚餐,艾瑞克和女郎则坐在客厅里翻看一大叠澳洲传来的资料。大概介绍了一遍,伊丽莎白还是道:“其实,如果你想要买土地的话,昆士兰州才算是最好的选择啊,哪怕是维多利亚省都不错,干嘛要挑选塔斯马尼亚,那里都没几个人？” „Entire Australian originally also few individuals?” Eric is reading the manor rough draft of designer, said: „Moreover, I hope that person few places, spacious is better.” “整个澳洲本来也就没几个人吧？”艾瑞克翻看着设计师的庄园草稿,道:“而且,我就希望人少的地方,越空旷越好。” Elizabeth lost a Eric supercilious look, said: „If you live there really previous some time, absolutely will not think.” 伊丽莎白丢了艾瑞克一记白眼,道:“如果你真的在那里住上一段时间,就绝对不会这么想了。” „No one has thought must be constant there, so long as that place were me to be OK. Un, you also momentarily can pass to play.” “谁也没有想过要在那里常住,只要那块地属于我就可以了。嗯,你也随时可以过去玩。” Elizabeth does intentionally to disdain saying: „Has anything to be amusing.” 伊丽莎白故作不屑道:“有什么好玩的。” Eric thinks that is pointing at the map on tea table, said with a smile: „Look, here, this river is my, um, I planned that also buys the east that mountain. Compared with your family's Lanai, this island is my, this mountain is my, listens, which has the imposing manner?” 艾瑞克想了想,指着茶几上的地图,笑道:“看,这里,这条河是我的,嗯,我打算把东边的那座山也买下来。和你们家的拉奈岛相比,这座岛是我的,这座山是我的,听听,哪个更有气势？” Elizabeth has hit on Eric with a smile, said: „Actually, Papa did not want that island, several years not necessarily went to one time.” 伊丽莎白笑着在艾瑞克身上打了一下,道:“其实,爸爸也不怎么想要那座岛了,几年都不一定去一次。” Eric remembered some afterward matters, said: „That sells out. However, I am will definitely not buy, I am not interested in the island, if Tasmania Island can also consider.” 艾瑞克想起后来的一些事情,道:“那就卖掉啊。不过,我是肯定不会买的,我对小岛可一点都不感兴趣,如果是塔斯马尼亚岛还可以考虑。” Then, in memory Lanai by Larry the news that Ellison buys maliciously had been hyped. But in fact, Lanai was the Murdoch family. Thinks company attribute between News Corp and Oracle, the low key and Larry of Murdoch family Ellison the contrast between high-sounding talk, but also is really interesting. 说起来,记忆中拉奈岛被拉里・埃里森买下的新闻可是被狠狠地炒作了一番。但实际上,拉奈岛原本却是属于默多克家族的。想想新闻集团和甲骨文之间的公司属性,默多克家族的低调和拉里・埃里森的高调之间的反差,还真有意思。
