Waited for Elizabeth to close the door, Murdoch leisurely carries the coffeepot to continue one coffee for oneself, then has given an optional hand signal to Eric. 等伊丽莎白关上房门,默多克才慢悠悠地端起咖啡壶为自己续了一杯咖啡,然后对艾瑞克做了一个随意的手势。 Eric shakes the head gently: „In the evening drinks too much coffee is not good to be familiar with.” 艾瑞克轻轻摇头:“晚上喝太多咖啡并不是什么好习惯。” Murdoch hehe smiled: „Your young people anything, have not waited till my this age, has to drink some coffee to maintain energetic.” 默多克呵呵笑了笑:“你们年轻人没什么,等到了我这个年纪,就不得不多喝一些咖啡才能保持精神了。” „To maintain the abundant energy, actually has a healthier way.” “想要保持充沛的精力,其实有更多更加健康的途径的。” Murdoch in then this topic, then had not said: „Eric, said that your first part movie is Fox cooperates, among us the cooperation has been happy, not?” 默多克没有在接着这个话题,转而道:“艾瑞克,说起来,你的第一部电影就是跟福克斯合作的,我们双方之间的合作一直都非常愉快,不是吗？” „Naturally, «17 Again» Box Office can break hundred million, has not thought including me.” “当然,《重返十七岁》票房能够破亿,连我自己都没有想到。” Eric shrugs to reply, simultaneously suggested that Murdoch hits sentimental sign not many uses to oneself. 艾瑞克耸耸肩答道,同时暗示默多克对自己打感情牌没有多少用处。 He truly can march into Hollywood by the participating performance «17 Again» opportunity that Fox gives. But do not owe Fox anything, «17 Again» was not only Fox has brought tens of millions USD Box Office profits, the following recording tape and television transmission power and other income put together, the complete profit will definitely surpass 100 million USD. But he only attained did not arrive at the 1 million USD reward, said that Fox was also stingy, under after «17 Again» files, he has not attained the red package that Box Office sold greatly. Eric thought that this matter had possibly missed «Home Alone» with initially Fox is related, although initially was Fox refused to be «Home Alone» makes the release, but after «Home Alone» sold greatly, Fox definitely will vent anger to him on, as before was that truth, when mistake when under a criminal was hard to withstand, will always vent anger subconsciously other people, but is not willing to engage in introspection oneself. 他确实是靠福克斯给的参演《重返十七岁》的机会才能步入好莱坞的。但自己也不欠福克斯什么,《重返十七岁》不仅为福克斯带来了数千万美元的票房利润,后续的录像带和电视转播权等收入加在一起,全部利润肯定会超过一亿美金。而他只从中拿到了不到100万美元的报酬,说起来,福克斯也算是抠门了,《重返十七岁》下档之后,他连个票房大卖的红包都没拿到。艾瑞克觉得这件事可能与当初福克斯错失了《小鬼当家》有关,虽然当初是福克斯自己拒绝为《小鬼当家》做发行的,但《小鬼当家》大卖之后,福克斯还是肯定会迁怒到他身上,依旧是那个道理,当一个人犯下难以承受的过错时,总是会下意识迁怒其他人而不肯反省自身。 Murdoch just wanted to try to get close with Eric. Directly had gone against, even if that saw on the face of humans affair also to flash through an awkwardness. 默多克刚想要跟艾瑞克套套近乎。就被直接顶了回来,即使那张见惯了世事的脸上也闪过一丝尴尬。 „Eric, heard that other TV Station have contacted with you?” “艾瑞克,听说其他电视台都跟你接触过了？” Three big TV Station represented with the matter that Eric contacted got up newspaper. Has made the related analysis issue including famous 《Los Angeles Times》 and 《The New York Times》, majority of newspaper to Fox TV Station whether to defend the 《Friends》 next quarter broadcast power to be pessimistic. 三大电视台代表与艾瑞克接触的事情都上了报纸了。连大名鼎鼎的《洛杉矶时报》和《纽约时报》都做了相关的分析文章,大部分报纸都对福克斯电视台能否守住《老友记》下一季的播放权持悲观态度。 „Yes. The condition that they pledge is attractive.” “是啊。他们开出的条件都非常诱人。” Murdoch somewhat agitated carrying front coffee has drunk one, he also realized that the present youth is not good to cope, if oneself continue not to chat not salty pale with the opposite party, this kid definitely not salty pale does not pull with finally. 默多克有些烦躁的端起面前的咖啡喝了一口,他也意识到眼前的青年一点都不好对付,自己要是继续不咸不淡地与对方聊下去,这个小家伙也肯定不咸不淡地与自己扯到最后。 Puts down the coffee cup, Murdoch decides to enter the subject: „Eric, are you look like this good, Fox TV Station will give the Firefly advertisement to be divided to promote to 70%, received exchange for 《Friends》 afterward four quarters first broadcast power?” 放下咖啡杯,默多克决定直入正题:“艾瑞克,你看这样好不好,福克斯电视台将给萤火虫的广告分成提升到70%,换取《老友记》随后四个季度的首播权？” So long as can attain the 《Friends》 first five seasons the broadcast power. Murdoch believes that Fox TV Station broadcasts the influence of movie by this heat, after five years of development, can definitely stand firm in North America again thoroughly, then after five seasons, Fox also has the energy according to the viewing ratio situation, carried on 《Friends》 share proportion with Firefly discusses the price. 只要能够拿到《老友记》前五季的播放权。默多克相信福克斯电视台凭借这部热播电影的影响力,再经过五年的发展,肯定能够彻底在北美站稳脚跟,那么五季过后,福克斯也就有底气按照收视率情况,与萤火虫在《老友记》的分成比例方面进行重新谈价了。 Eric gains ground to stare at Murdoch: „Mr. Murdoch, is this Fox sincerity?” 艾瑞克抬起头盯着默多克:“默多克先生,难道这就是福克斯的诚意吗？” „Hasn't this been able to manifest the Fox sincerity?” Murdoch asked. “难道这还不能体现福克斯的诚意吗？”默多克反问道。 Eric shook the head immediately, if were in the situation in the past, this was divided into the proportion really to have the sincerity. 艾瑞克当即摇了摇头,如果是往常情况下,这个分成比例确实是非常有诚意了。 The television profession is different from the cinema world, as a result of the restraint of TV Station not related anti-monopoly law. Can produce the television program to be self-sufficient. Therefore, TV Station alone | sets up in front of the movie-making side at the beautiful play appears very strong, under normal conditions. TV Station by selling outright situation attains the broadcast power from constructor there, even if Warner these film and television giants can enjoy the treatment that the advertisement is divided into by the strength, will be divided highest proportion not over 40%, under normal conditions will have about 30%. 电视行业不同于电影圈,由于电视台并没有相关反垄断法的约束。可以自己制作电视节目自给自足。因此,电视台在美剧独丨立制片方面前就显得非常强势,通常情况下。电视台都是以买断的形势从制作方那里拿到播放权,哪怕是华纳这些影视巨头能够凭借实力享受到广告分成的待遇,分成比例最高也不会超过40%,通常情况下就只有30%左右。 But this time situation completely is different, is in the young stage regarding the present Fox TV Station, the superelevation viewing ratio that 《Friends》 brings is only a foundation, what is most essential, 《Friends》 can help to be at the development phase the Fox TV Station fast promotion popularity, trains the reception community. 但这一次的情况则完全不同,对于现在处于幼年期的福克斯电视台来说,《老友记》带来的超高收视率只是一个基础,最关键的是,《老友记》可以帮助处于发展阶段的福克斯电视台快速提升人气,培养收视群体。 „Mr. Murdoch. Before 《Friends》, the Fox TV Station average reception population is only several million. Does not arrive at North America fixed television viewers 1/10. In our not to mention 《Friends》 broadcast process can be the 20 million people superelevation reception of over Fox brings, even if were this season broadcasts. Also at least can promote the Fox average reception population to the 10 million person above, compares in these, did your just initial price appear does not have the sincerity?” “默多克先生。在《老友记》之前,福克斯电视台的平均收视人数只有几百万。不到北美固定电视观众人数的1。我们暂且不说《老友记》播放过程中可以为福克斯带来的超过2000万人次的超高收视,哪怕是这一季播放完了。也至少可以将福克斯的平均收视人数提升到1000万人以上,相比于这些,你刚刚的开价就显得太没诚意了？” Murdoch closely stares at Eric speak unhurriedly and clearly saying: „Eric, you should know, pricetag that I just asked , is almost two times that other movie-making sides can attain to be divided into.” 默多克紧紧盯着艾瑞克一字一顿道:“艾瑞克,你应该知道,我刚刚开出的价码,已经差不多是其他制片方能够拿到分成的两倍了。” Eric under staring of front this media tycoon, has not shown one's ignorance slightly, instead smiled gently: „Mr. Murdoch, believes that you definitely have carried on some investigations, then you should know, three big TV Station to rob 《Friends》, start out is divided into the price not to lower many compared with you. But some people have also calculated with me, if I place several established wireless TV Station broadcasts 《Friends》, the advertizing revenue will promote over 10%, in addition this 10% making up, were actually similar to the pricetag that Fox asked. Compares in Fox, I will choose with other established wireless TV Station cooperate, the interests that will get will be definitely more.” 艾瑞克在面前这位传媒大亨的凝视下,丝毫没有露怯,反而轻轻笑了笑:“默多克先生,相信你肯定也进行过一些调查,那么你应该知道,三大电视台为了抢走《老友记》,开出的分成价格并不比你们低多少。而有人也跟我计算过,如果我将《老友记》放在几个老牌无线电视台播放的话,广告收入会提升10以上,加上这10%的弥补,其实就已经和福克斯开出的价码差不多了。相比于福克斯,我选择跟其他老牌无线电视台进行合作,获得的利益肯定会更多。” Eric said that lowered the head to carry front coffee once more slightly, does not look at the Murdoch expression, he believes that the so-called 70% advertisements are divided are only a probe of Murdoch. 艾瑞克说完,再次微微低下头端起面前的咖啡,不去看默多克的表情,他相信所谓70%的广告分成只是默多克的一个试探。 Feels in the hand the exquisite white chinaware, Eric is noting on the ceramic coffee cup to draw a pale-green plant quickly unexpectedly, quite somewhat meaning of ink and wash painting. Saw that these Eric suddenly have one type cup impulsion in reverse, wants has a look in the bottom surface to carve ‚made-in-china’ inscription. 感受着手中细腻的白色瓷器,艾瑞克很快注意到陶瓷咖啡杯上竟然描画着一株淡绿色的植物,颇有几分水墨画的意味。看到这些的艾瑞克一时间产生一种将杯子倒过来的冲动,想要看看底面上是不是刻着‘made-in-china’的字样。 However, Eric quickly because this thought has smiled, this towering smiling makes Murdoch feel is bewildered, the smiling face that but expression on face actually also shows with Eric relaxes. 不过,艾瑞克很快就因为这个念头笑了起来,这突兀的笑让默多克感觉非常莫名其妙,但脸上的神情却也跟着艾瑞克露出的笑容而放松下来。 „Eric, said that your condition, how can Fox do to attain the 《Friends》 sequel the first broadcast power?” ( to be continued ) “艾瑞克,还是说说你的条件吧,福克斯要怎么做才能拿到《老友记》续集的首播权？”(未完待续)
