Chris, do you know Cisco?” Eric somewhat excitedly asked that perhaps in memory Cisco has not gone on the market, then at his present net worth can definitely that next not small stock. The Eric non- extravagant demands are too even many, even if only attains 10%, when ten years later, is the value of this stock can make him taste merely to work as the taste of world's richest. 克里斯,你知道思科吗?”艾瑞克有些激动地问道,记忆里思科或许还没有上市,那么以他现在的身家肯定能够那下一笔不小的股份。艾瑞克甚至不奢求太多,就算只拿到10%,等十年后,仅仅是这笔股份的价值就可以让他尝尝当世界首富的滋味。 Chris has thought that asked: You say that router company of Chinese larch capital spending hatching?” 克里斯思索了一下,问道:“你是说红杉资本投资孵化的那家路由器公司?” Yes, do you also know Cisco?” Eric asked disturbedly, Chris knows that this company, seemingly was not a good news,...... “是啊,你也知道思科?”艾瑞克忐忑地问道,克里斯知道这家公司,貌似并不是个好消息,难道…… Chris has not seen the restlessness in Eric expression, having the bewildered smile saying: Naturally knows, because operates the Cisco listing is also our company, is just our same department, but is not a group, his named George. Kelly, the fellow used for several months to instigate Cisco several principal shareholders to agree with the IPO plan, now is lobbying everywhere, hoping some investment institutions to be able in February of next year Cisco goes on the market, took over the Cisco stock.” 克里斯没有看到艾瑞克表情中的不安,带着莫名其妙的微笑说道:“当然知道,因为操作思科上市的也是我们公司,刚好是我们同一个部门的,不过不是一个小组,他名叫乔治.凯利,那家伙用了好几个月怂恿思科的几位主要股东同意ipo计划,现在正在到处游说,希望一些投资机构能够在明年二月思科上市的时候,接手思科的股票。” Said that has not gone on the market. 这么说,就是还没有上市。 Eric relaxed immediately, just heard Chris to be very familiar with Cisco, but also thinks that this company went on the market, or this company stared at like this by the Morgan Stanley big investment bank, he wants the fingers/tiger mouth to seize the food is not an easy matter 艾瑞克顿时松了一口气,刚刚听到克里斯思科很熟悉,还以为这家公司已经上市了,又或者这家公司被摩根士丹利这样的大投行盯上,那他想要虎口夺食可不是件容易的事情 „Does Chris, help me?” Eric has pondered the moment, is staring at Chris earnestly, said: Helps me phrase the Cisco stock, as far as possible many purchases.” 克里斯,帮我个忙好吗?”艾瑞克思考了片刻,然后认真盯着克里斯,道:“帮我收购思科的股份,尽可能多的收购。” A Chris bewilderment: Eric, now some investment institutions by George. Kelly entangles is hiding walking, many people do not favor this company.” 克里斯一阵莫名其妙:“艾瑞克,现在一些投资机构都被乔治.凯利缠的躲着走,很多人都不看好这家公司。” Jeffrey that has listened attentively to peacefully also urged at this time: Eric, if you want to invest, can make Chris help you seek for some quite valuable company, that you said...... Any Cisco. I look at consider as finished.” 一直安静倾听的杰弗里这时候也劝道:“艾瑞克,如果你想投资的话,可以让克里斯帮你寻找一些比较有价值的公司,你们说的这个……什么思科。我看还是算了。” Eric shook the head firmly , to continue to stare at Chris saying: „Does Chris, help me?” 艾瑞克坚定地摇了摇头,继续盯着克里斯道:“克里斯,帮我这个忙好吗?” Chris as if receives the infection of Eric vision. The subconsciousness nodded, immediately also said: Eric. If you are interested in this company, I can help you to George. Kelly demanded that some more detailed material, after you most attractive, decided again.” 克里斯仿佛受到艾瑞克目光的感染。下意识点了点头,随即又道:“艾瑞克。如果你对这家公司感兴趣的话,我可以帮你向乔治.凯利索要一些更加详细的资料,你最好看了以后再决定。” Does not need, I have decided.” “不需要,我已经决定了。” Chris and Jeffrey looked at each other one, Jeffrey said in a soft voice: Eric, just you...... Drinks were a much less?” 克里斯杰弗里对视了一眼,杰弗里轻声道:“艾瑞克,刚刚你是不是……喝的有点多了?” Listening, Jeffrey, Chris. I now am very sober, does not have not to get drunk muzzy. Good, is actually...... I had seen Cisco some materials before, I thought that this company possibly like Microsoft, Oracle or Apple, becomes a profession jumbo. Therefore, does Chris, give me to select the good suggestion?” “听着,杰弗里,还有克里斯。我现在很清醒,既没有头脑发昏也没有喝醉。好吧,其实是……我之前看到过思科的一些资料,我觉得这家公司可能会像微软甲骨文或者苹果那样,成为一家行业巨无霸。所以,克里斯,给我点好的建议好吗?” Chris saw a father, he knows that Jeffrey is most familiar with Eric, Jeffrey thinks that Eric past disposition, seems like matter that the beforehand Eric decision handles. He has not advised successfully. Therefore Jeffrey nodded toward the son. 克里斯看了眼父亲,他知道杰弗里艾瑞克最熟悉,杰弗里想了想艾瑞克以往的性格,貌似以前艾瑞克决定做的事情。他还从来没有成功劝阻过。于是杰弗里朝儿子点了点头。 Obtains father's confirmation, Chris said: That, Eric. If you decide, first is best to establish an investment company, or looks for an investment company to help you make the proxy, Morgan Stanley has the special private wealth control section, at your present net worth, will definitely receive the service of most top, naturally, must pay not the poor commission. Therefore I recommend the previous plan. Then, was very simple. Purchases the Cisco stock through this investment company, then finds an occupation Manager person to enter Cisco Board of Directors. Helps you handle the stock to purchase the later matter, naturally. This matter you can also do personally, but I think that you definitely do not have the time, did not suggest that you handle these quite specialized matter personally.” 得到父亲的确认,克里斯才说道:“那么,艾瑞克。如果你决定的话,首先最好成立一家投资公司,或者找一家投资公司帮你做代理,摩根士丹利就有专门的私人财富管理部门,以你现在的身家,肯定会受到最顶级的服务,当然,也要支付不菲的佣金。所以我推荐前一个方案。接下来,就很简单了。通过这家投资公司收购思科的股票,然后找一个职业经理人进入思科董事会。帮你打理股票收购之后的事情,当然。这件事你也可以亲自来做,不过我想你肯定没时间,也不建议你亲自做这些比较专业的事情。” Eric has pondered the moment, sized up sat in opposite Chris several, suddenly opened the mouth saying: Chris , do you help me manage this investment company to be what kind of?” 艾瑞克思考了片刻,打量了坐在对面的克里斯几眼,突然开口道:“克里斯,要不,你来帮我管理这家投资公司怎么样?” I?” Chris has referred to itself. “我?”克里斯指了指自己。 Eric nodded: Yes, relax, this company is not the piece of work, I ensure the fund of company cannot be less than 100 million USD.” 艾瑞克点了点头:“是的,放心,这家公司不会是小打小闹的,我保证公司的资金不会少于一亿美元。” Chris knows that Eric will not play this joke, immediately during falls into to struggle. 克里斯知道艾瑞克不会开这种玩笑,顿时陷入挣扎当中。 He now is a Morgan Stanley high-level Manager person, many people achieve this degree in the investment bank, at least must spend for 78 years, he has only used for four years, moreover he does for one year likely once more to be promoted again. 他现在已经是摩根士丹利的一名高级经理人,很多人在投行做到这种程度,至少要花78年时间,他只用了四年,而且他再做一年就很可能再次升职。 Now, suddenly the opportunity appears in the front, if him told that the person of this saying is not Eric, but is other people, perhaps he immediately complies. But Eric was too young, this makes him produce hesitates, is afraid Eric this is prompted by a sudden impulse for a while. 现在,突然又有一个机会出现在面前,如果跟他说这话的人不是艾瑞克,而是其他人的话,他说不定立刻就答应了。但艾瑞克太年轻了,这让他心里不由产生迟疑,害怕艾瑞克这是一时地心血来潮。 I know that you are having scruples anything, Chris, but believes me, this is not I decided impulsively that I promised you. If you do not believe that” Eric looked around Jeffrey, said: Jeffrey can testify.” “我知道你在顾忌什么,克里斯,不过相信我,这不是我心血来潮的决定,我向你保证。如果你不相信的话,”艾瑞克看了看旁边的杰弗里,道:“杰弗里可以作证。” Jeffrey touches the nose, said with a smile dry: What makes me guarantee?” 杰弗里摸了摸鼻子,干笑道:“让我来保证什么啊?” Guaranteed that I am not prompted by a sudden impulse, you should be familiar with my disposition.” “保证我不是心血来潮,你应该熟悉我的性格的。” But in I remember, you handle a lot truly to be prompted by a sudden impulse,” Jeffrey such said in the depression of Eric that afterward smiled and added: Afterward showed that you are correct. Chris, I thought that you can try.” “可我记忆里,你做很多事情确实是心血来潮,”杰弗里艾瑞克的郁闷中这么说道,随后笑了笑又补充说:“不过后来都证明你是正确的。克里斯,我觉得,你可以试试。” Chris has hesitated the moment, said: Eric, this matter I need to consider, I will give you to answer as soon as possible.” 克里斯沉吟了片刻,道:“艾瑞克,这件事我需要考虑一下,我会尽快给你答复。” Does not have the issue,” Eric nodded, did not urge. “没问题,”艾瑞克点了点头,也不催促。 To 10 : 00 pm, Eric on own initiative brings two little girl to leave the Jeffrey home. 一直到晚上十点,艾瑞克才主动带着两个小丨妞离开杰弗里家。 Being in chaotic situation Thanksgiving quickly in the past, because disputed, three people no one have eaten the turkey, two girls deliberately created trouble are surmounting two turkeys that United States President will buy respectively both to remit, after the holiday, Aniston started to work, leaves the villa, Eric had also relaxed. Attention and Firefly related three movie Box Office at the same time, started the «X-Files» electing corner/horn works, because of after two months of busy , the screenwriter group has basically completed «X-Files» first quarter script. 鸡飞狗跳的感恩节很快过去,因为争执,三个人谁都没有吃到火鸡,两个女孩胡闹着超越美国总统将各自买来的两只火鸡都赦免了,节日之后安妮斯顿开始工作,离开了别墅,艾瑞克也松了一口气。关注与萤火虫有关的三部电影票房的同时,也开始了《x档案》的选角工作,因为经过两个月的忙碌,编剧小组已经基本完成了《x档案》的第一季剧本 Disney's Headquarters, after the assistant has knocked several doors shoves open, Michael Eisner that to bustled about said: Mr. Eisner, Mr. Robin came.” 迪斯尼的总部,助理敲了几下房门之后推开,对正在忙碌的迈克尔.艾斯纳道:“艾斯纳先生,罗宾先生来了。” Makes him come,” Michael Eisner puts down the fountain pen in hand. “让他进来吧,”迈克尔.艾斯纳放下手中的钢笔。 Bruce. Joy. Robin entered the office quickly, for serveral days he crossed unusual was sight, the matter that because «Ghost» script settled on by Eric has spread over Hollywood, the high levels in seven big companies he almost saw, these collected small Film Studio that wanted to cooperate are innumerable, wanted to obtain the script person price to open was also getting higher and higher, but had not actually achieved his anticipated at heart. 布鲁斯.乔伊.罗宾很快走进了办公室,这些天他过的非常风光,因为《人鬼情未了》的剧本艾瑞克看中的事情传遍了好莱坞,七大公司的高层他几乎见了一遍,那些凑上来想要合作的小电影公司更是数不胜数,想要获得剧本的人价格开的也越来越高,不过却一直没有达到他的心里预期。 Sees you very much happily, Mr. Robin,” Michael Eisner bypasses the desk, walks to smile and Bruce. Joy. Robin shook hand. “很高兴见到你,罗宾先生,”迈克尔.艾斯纳绕过办公桌,走过来微笑着与布鲁斯.乔伊.罗宾握了握手。 Bruce did not have some time ago to deliver to favor with that seven big high levels met, if the startled feeling, shook hand after Michael Eisner neither arrogant nor servile, they sat on the sofa together. 布鲁斯也没有了不久前与七大高层相见的那种送宠若惊的感觉,不卑不亢地与迈克尔.艾斯纳握手后,两人一起坐在了沙发上。 Michael Eisner not makes any appraisal to «Ghost» script, said: Mr. Robin, script I had looked, today invites you to come, wants to inquire a matter to you.” 迈克尔.艾斯纳没有对《人鬼情未了》的剧本做出任何评价,说道:“罗宾先生,剧本我已经看过了,今天邀请你过来,是想要向你打听一件事情。” Mr. Eisner, had any matter to say freely.” Bruce carried coffee that the assistant delivered to sip one gently. 艾斯纳先生,有什么事情尽管说。”布鲁斯端起助理送上来的咖啡轻轻啜了一口。 Michael Eisner looks patiently Bruce one puts on airs, waits for the opposite party to put down the coffee cup, asked: I only want to know a matter, initially you and Eric Williams discussed that he said anything, if your answer made me satisfy, I will give you a very appropriate price.” 迈克尔.艾斯纳耐心地看着布鲁斯一番装模作样,等对方放下咖啡杯,才问道:“我只想知道一件事情,当初你和艾瑞克.威廉姆斯谈的时候,他到底说了些什么,如果你的答案让我满意,我会给你一个非常合适的价格。” Bruce. Joy. Robin knit the brows, Michael Eisner that imperative mood makes him very uncomfortable: Mr. Eisner, Mr. Williams said that he favors this script very much, wants to buy personally Director.” 布鲁斯.乔伊.罗宾皱了皱眉,迈克尔.艾斯纳的那种命令语气让他非常不舒服:“艾斯纳先生,威廉姆斯先生说,他很看好这个剧本,想要买过去亲自导演。” Michael Eisner shakes the head: No, I am familiar with that kid, he will not say such words absolutely, when I need you from beginning to end meet the plot to return to original state you and he. If continues to lie, or does not want to say that then you can leave now. If you then situation will tell me completely, and result makes me be satisfactory, I will give you a very rich screenwriter contract. I know that at present the initial price what is highest is Paramount, they have given you 600,000 USD prices and 2% gain sharing, believes me, my initial price is absolutely higher than them, looked that your reply can make me satisfy.” 迈克尔.艾斯纳摇摇头:“不,我对那个小家伙非常熟悉,他绝对不会说出这样的话,我需要你原原本本地将你和他见面时的情节还原出来。如果继续撒谎,或者不想说,那么你现在就可以离开了。如果你将当时的情形完完整整地告诉我,并且结果让我满意的话,我会给你一份非常丰厚的编剧合约。我知道,目前开价最高的是派拉蒙,他们给了你60万美元的价格和2%的利润分成,相信我,我的开价绝对比他们高,就看你的回答能不能让我满意。” Bruce is not feeling well, almost wants to have no more to do with walk, but, he will unable to pass with money, thinks or endured patiently, met the situation to narrate when him and Eric approximately. 布鲁斯心里一阵不爽,几乎想要拔腿就走,不过,他也不会跟钱过不去,想了想还是忍耐了下来,将他和艾瑞克见面时的情形大致地叙述了一遍。 The Michael Eisner listener, he naturally knows patiently Bruce impossible honest no error to speak the truth, the feeding decorates to be unavoidable. Therefore he is also judging these words that Bruce spoke to have the moisture content. 迈克尔.艾斯纳耐心地倾听者,他当然知道布鲁斯不可能老老实实一字不差地说实话,加料修饰一下是在所难免的。因此他也在判断布鲁斯说的那些话有水分。 When Bruce said that Michael Eisner by has pondered on the sofa for ten minutes. 等布鲁斯说完,迈克尔.艾斯纳靠在沙发上足足思考了十分钟。 The matter origin in celebration party that «The Others» Box Office sells greatly, that party is Disney conducts, on party the Disney's person are also most. Therefore Michael Eisner has understood the entire item matter complete process to many people in detail. 事情缘起于《小岛惊魂票房大卖的庆祝派对,那场派对迪斯尼举办的,派对迪斯尼的人也最多。因此迈克尔.艾斯纳已经向很多人详细了解了整件事完整的经过。 At present what he can judge, Eric truly does not approach that group of people on party on own initiative, but the accidental process, had been encircled by that group of guests, accidentally heard that the script matter, chatted few at that time, in that group of people have total Manager of Disney issue department, according to the opposite party Eric had not displayed any difference at that time. Then Eric heard several people to discuss this script to favor this possibility from the beginning to remove. ( to be continued ) 他目前可以判断的是,艾瑞克派对上确实不是主动接近那群人,而是偶然经过,被那群宾客围了起来,才偶然听说剧本的事情,当时只是聊了寥寥几句,那群人里有迪斯尼发行部的一位总经理,据对方说艾瑞克当时并没有表现出任何异样。那么艾瑞克一开始听到几人谈论这个剧本就非常看好这种可能排除了。(未完待续)
