Regarding the media on to the dispute of award-winning result, the institute as usual, without any response, everyone knows in any case, regardless of confers anyone the award item, forever will stir the controversy. 对于媒体上对获奖结果的争议,学院像以往一样,没有任何回应,反正谁都知道,无论将奖项颁给谁,都永远会引起争议。 Several days after Oscar, Firefly after the beginning of the year disturbance, first part movie «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» of key release screened. Many people have all kinds of moods to pay attention to this movie. 奥斯卡后的几天,萤火虫在年初风波之后,重点发行的第一部电影《忍者神龟》上映了。很多人都带着各种各样的心情关注着这部电影。 Although a while ago «Reservoir Dogs» also obtained good Box Office, but that movie Box Office, although under the influence of Eric, screened the scale to be bigger, but as before was the piece of work. 虽然前段时间的《落水狗》也获得了不错的票房,但那部电影票房虽然在艾瑞克的影响下,上映规模大了很多,但依旧算是小打小闹。 Because Eric favors «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» ahead of time, Robert Shay was this movie collects reached 2000 silver screens, this is Firefly now the limit of ability, but seven big Film Studio if necessary, can collect over 3000 silver screens. 因为艾瑞克提前非常看好《忍者神龟》,罗伯特.谢伊为这部电影筹集了多达2000块银幕,这已经是萤火虫现在能力的极限,而七大电影公司如果必要的话,可以筹集到超过3000块的银幕。 Moreover, even if after «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» screens, Box Office compared with original plan in is also much better, increases the canvas very much difficultly again, once Box Office is unsatisfactory, then may have several hundred silver screens to be removed next week. 而且,即使《忍者神龟》上映之后,票房比原计划中的还要好很多,也很难再增加画布,而一旦票房不如人意,那么下周就可能会有数百块银幕被撤下。 Therefore, this time screened to arouse the Hollywood most people's interest, if this Firefly bitter experience ‚Waterloo’, that takes pleasure in others'misfortunes the person who even hit a person when he is down to be many. 因此,这次上映引起了好莱坞圈内圈外大部分人的关注,如果这次萤火虫遭遇‘滑铁卢’,那幸灾乐祸甚至落井下石的人将非常多。 Because the previous life Box Office result makes safeguard, in addition present propaganda scale many that previous life is bigger, Firefly be this movie put into the propaganda budget of big 6 million USD, has not included 2000 copies the production costs, therefore, Eric not them the mood like Robert Shay or Jeffrey is disturbed. 但因为前世的票房结果做保障,再加上现在的宣传规模要比前世大的多,萤火虫为这部电影投入了多大600万美元的宣传预算,其中还不包括2000份拷贝的制作费用,因此,艾瑞克并不像罗伯特.谢伊或者杰弗里他们那样心情忐忑。 Although participated in preview ceremony, but Eric these time hides by the stance of guest in the one side completely, the opportunity of beaming with joy has given the «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» Lord create. 虽然参加了首映式,但艾瑞克这一次完全是以客人的姿态躲在一旁,将露脸的机会都交给了《忍者神龟》的主创们。 At this time, he was discussing arrangement the matter about «Basic Instinct» with Jeffrey. 此时,他正在与杰弗里讨论着关于《本能》的筹备的事情。 „Jeffrey, if Hollywood had not found appropriate Actor, I suggested that you go to Europe to give a try. Like that «The Unbearable Lightness of Being» such of several years ago, Director of that movie was Hollywood Actor that because settled on majority was too conservative is not willing to play, but has chosen Europe Actor.” “杰弗里,如果好莱坞没有找到合适的演员的话,我建议你还是去欧洲试试看。就像前几年的那部《布拉格之恋》那样,那部电影的导演就是因为大部分看中的好莱坞演员太保守不愿意出演,而选择了欧洲演员。” Jeffrey looked in a stage Robert Shay that fervently expressed views passionate. Shook the head saying: „Eric, I am worried is not this. Paul who a lot, for example Director, you recommend. model/pattern Huowen, just met a big manufacture movie that Arnold Schwarzenegger has played the lead in recently, is not willing to pay attention to «Basic Instinct». Moreover, the budget is also a very major problem, I made the person make a detailed budget according to script that you gave, the result of finally obtaining was cost at least 30 million USD of this movie. Goes far beyond the budget of 20 million USD you give, that several scenes that the most important graduation issue, you design, will really go too far, very much easily are evaluated the NC-17 level, we are now good not to have the ability to meddle the rating committee, once were evaluated the NC-17 level to be arranged in good that the limit theater screened, then, this movie definitely loss.” 杰弗里看了眼舞台上正在热情洋溢地慷慨陈词的罗伯特.谢伊。摇了摇头道:“艾瑞克,我担心的并不是这个。还有很多事情,比如导演,你推荐的保罗.范霍文,最近刚刚接了阿诺.施瓦辛格主演的一部大制作电影,根本不愿意理会《本能》。而且,预算也是一个很大的问题,我让人按照你给出的剧本做了一番详细的预算,最后得出的结果是这部电影的成本至少3000万美元。远远超过你给出的2000万美元的预算,还有最重要的分级问题,你设计的那几个场景,实在是过火了一些,很容易会被评为nc-17级的,我们现在好没有能力插手评级委员会,一旦被评为nc-17级被安排在限制影院上映的好,那么,这部电影肯定血本无归。” Eric pulls the hair worriedly, he knows Jeffrey said is the facts. The United States movie rating committee was being dominated by seven big Film Studio completely, many people have analyzed, in some movies completely same picture. Seven big Film Studio the words of product will be evaluated R-rated, but the non- seven big products will be evaluated the NC-17 level. Obviously Eric remembers is previous life Meg Ryan for 《In the Cut》 that to seek the breakthrough acts the leading role, because is the reason of big Film Studio release, that movie certain scene may be called IVY levels, was actually evaluated R-rated. 艾瑞克苦恼地抓了抓头发,他知道杰弗里说的都是事实。美国的电影评级委员会完全被七大电影公司把持着,很多人都分析过,一些电影中完全相同的画面。七大电影公司的出品的话会被评为r级,但非七大出品则会被评为nc-17级。艾瑞克明显记得的就是前世梅格.瑞恩为了寻求突破而主演的《裸丨体切割》,因为是大电影公司发行的缘故,那部电影某些镜头堪称艾薇级,却被评为r级。 If this movie shoots will come out in the future, was not evaluated the NC-17 level, that seven big Film Studio definitely was the collective convulsion. Although also has through revising the way of plot carries on the rating, but in that case, the plot definitely will have very big change. The Box Office result was very difficult to expect. 如果将来这部电影拍摄出来,不被评为nc-17级的话,那七大电影公司肯定是集体抽风了。虽然还有通过修改剧情的方式重新进行评级,但那样的话,情节肯定会出现很大的变化。票房结果就很难预料了。 Pondered a while, Eric knows one had no alternative. Has saying: „This, Jeffrey. Relates seven in a big way, which having a look at to be willing to cooperate, choosing a condition to be favorable for us.” 思考了一会儿,艾瑞克知道自己别无选择。只好道:“这样吧,杰弗里。联系七大,看看哪家愿意合作,选一个条件对我们有利一些的。” „Then about you are the screenwriter matter......” “那关于你是编剧的事情……” „Such words, definitely do not want to conceal the truth, that directly was good with the real name, I am also less than any case now 20 years old, compiles this kind of script, just makes people think that I am young. If conceals, I will make a bet, these fellows no matter out of any goal, definitely by any means possible will disclose.” “那样的话,肯定别想瞒了,那就直接用真名好了,反正我现在还不到20岁,编写这样一个剧本,刚好让人觉得我年少轻狂。要是隐瞒的话,我敢打赌,那些家伙不管是出于什么目的,都肯定会千方百计地透露出来。” Jeffrey shook the head reluctantly: „Eric, I really do not think clearly, why you must produce this kind of movie, I could not look where this movie was splendid.” 杰弗里无奈地摇了摇头:“艾瑞克,我真是想不明白,你为什么非要制作这样一部电影,我看不出来这部电影哪里出色了。” „That looked that several script were good,” Eric cracks a joke saying: „You know that now with is who who 0.38 kill people?” “那就多看几遍剧本好了,”艾瑞克开玩笑道:“你现在知道用0.38杀人的到底是谁了吗？” Jeffrey shook the head: „If you told me, Beth after actor Nick shot, that says ‚I......’ was anything, I can 100% determinations.” 杰弗里摇了摇头:“如果你告诉我,贝丝在被男主角尼克枪击之后,说的那句‘我……’到底是什么,我才能100确定。” Eric keeps guessing saying: „Perhaps was ‚I makes a mistake’, ‚I have been unfair to you’, what ‚I loves you’?” 艾瑞克卖关子道:“或许是‘我错了’,‘我对不起你’,‘我爱你’什么的呢？” „I thought that most is I loves you impossibly ‚’, was ‚I have possibly made a mistake’.” Jeffrey said. “我觉得,最不可能地是‘我爱你’,最可能地是‘我错了’。”杰弗里说道。 Eric has gawked, in fact, these words are ‚I loved you’, but, Eric thought that was gunned down by the person of deep love without hesitation, at the point of death before , is very difficult to say ‚me to love you’ such phrase, therefore when writes script, Eric has made a small revision, only keeps one ‚I......’, making audience guess. Like «The Others» such, has the suspense, instead will favor Box Office. 艾瑞克愣了下,事实上,这句话原本是‘我爱你’,不过,艾瑞克觉得,被深爱的人毫不犹豫地枪杀,临死之前很难说出‘我爱你’这样的字眼,因此在写剧本的时候,艾瑞克做了一个小修改,只留下来一个‘我……’,让观众自己去猜。就像《小岛惊魂》那样,留一下悬念,反而会更利于票房。 In the stage, after «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» several hosts create gave a speech one after another, the movie starts to broadcast. 舞台上,《忍者神龟》的几位主创轮番致辞之后,电影正是开始播放。 Sees the picture on silver screen once more, Eric knits the brows as before unavoidably slightly, this thick b level Hong Kong taste, although total cost 13 million USD regarding the Hong Kong movie, absolutely is the super big manufacture, but places Hollywood, only the energy reluctantly is the medium cost, in addition in the movie must present some special effect, finally can be imagined. 再次看到银幕上的画面,艾瑞克依旧难免微微皱眉,这一股浓浓的b级港片味儿啊,虽然总成本1300万美元对于香港电影来说,绝对是超级大制作,但是放在好莱坞,只能勉强算是中等成本,再加上电影中还必须出现一些特效,结果可想而知。 Like scene, one group of people fight, some chopped the electric wire with the scoundrel of blade, here you did not have the ability to make the illumination special effect, electric current sound that at least should also match Zizi, but the result was...... No, the scoundrel was only the body trembled several, even if had received an electric shock, looked like somewhat funny. 就像其中一个镜头,一群人打斗的时候,某个拿刀的歹徒砍中了电线,这里你就算没能力做发光特效,至少也应该配一点兹兹的电流声吧,但结果是……没有,歹徒只是身体哆嗦了几下,就算是触了电了,看起来有些滑稽。 Naturally, this mainly Eric appetite by the previous life special effect big piece creates trickily the reason. Although Eric knits the brows repeatedly, but participates in first showing the audiences in movie theater because often the words and martial arts movement of four enduring turtles exude several to laugh, or low exclamation several. 当然,这主要还是艾瑞克胃口被前世的特效大片养刁了的缘故。虽然艾瑞克频频皱眉,但是参加首映的电影院里的观众都不时因为四只忍者龟的话语和武术动作发出几声哄笑,或者低低的惊叹几声。 Also a somewhat tense numerous movie Lord created hears these sounds, relaxed. 原本还有些紧张的一众电影主创们听到这些声音,也都纷纷松了一口气。 Perhaps because of the film budget reason, or is the convention of Hong Kong movie, the movie only then 90 minutes, then broadcasts quickly, the light has not shone, in the movie theater has then broken out the warm applause. 或许是因为影片预算的缘故,又或者是香港电影的惯例,电影只有90分钟时间,很快便播放完,灯光还没有亮起,电影院内便响起了热烈的掌声。 „A splendid science fiction action movie, although unsatisfactory of many place manufacture, but at the investment of 13 million USD, this is a splendid movie.” “一部精彩的科幻动作片,虽然很多地方制作的都不如人意,但以1300万美元的投资,这一就是一部出色的电影。” „In movie often appears makes the person burst out laughing to teasing of renaissance character, the movement design of movie also has many two points, is worth look at.” “电影中不时出现的对文艺复兴时期人物的调侃让人捧腹,电影的动作设计也有很多两点,值得一看。” „......” “……” After the first showing, all kinds of appraisals are following, because of the vigorous propaganda and public relations of Firefly, the overall evaluation of movie very positive, many newspaper have given the high score, although often several words intense criticism articles appear, but cannot turn any rough seas, although seven big Film Studio do not want to see that this movie is successful, but faces Firefly spare no effort to throw money to propagandize, no one will pull out several hundred thousand over a million money to come to discredit this movie. 首映之后,各种各样的评价随之而来,因为萤火虫的大力宣传和公关,电影的总体评价还是非常正面的,很多报纸都给了高分,虽然不时有几篇言辞激烈的批评文章出现,但也翻不起什么大浪,七大电影公司虽然不想看到这部电影成功,但面对萤火虫不遗余力地撒钱宣传,谁也不会掏几十万上百万的钱来抹黑这部电影。 Let alone, seven big interior do not favor this movie specially, otherwise Fox initially after looking Large expanse , the rejection is «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» makes the release. 更何况,七大内部并不是特别看好这部电影,要不然福克斯当初也不会在看了成片之后,拒绝为《忍者神龟》做发行。 In the attention of many person, three days later, «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» has harvested 25 million USD first weekend Box Office in the North America 2000 theaters, making many people shock. 在很多人的关注当中,三天之后,《忍者神龟》在北美2000家影院收获了2500万美元的首周末票房,让很多人大跌眼镜。 But Fox that again is mistaken, has dismissed several management in a short time, is counted the «An Affair to Remember» matter, Fox receives the ridicules of many media unavoidably. 而再一次看走眼的福克斯,又短时间内开除了几名高管,算上《金玉盟》的事情,福克斯难免受到不少媒体的嘲笑。 Facing this situation, Fox has bitter not being able to say. 面对这种情况,福克斯却有苦说不出。 A complete week later, Box Office of «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» first week drew a charge, has achieved 3 2 million. 一个完整周之后,《忍者神龟》首周的票房出炉,达到了3200万。 Sees this result, the chatty many media did not have any sound. 看到这个成绩,原本还叽叽歪歪的很多媒体都没有了任何声音。 The person in Hollywood circle also realized that Firefly after experiencing the beginning of the year that disturbance, has not come under any influence, but initially was Eric first favors the news of this movie also unavoidably to be disclosed that again caused one to discuss in the Hollywood circle. Besides several movies that Eric participate, in addition 《Steel Magnolias》, this is also the second time, was not favored by others, greatly is actually attained by the movie that Eric favors successfully. 好莱坞圈内的人也意识到,萤火虫在经历了年初的那场风波之后,没有受到任何影响,而当初是艾瑞克首先看好这部电影的消息也难免被透露出来,再一次在好莱坞圈内引起了一阵热议。除了艾瑞克自己参与的几部电影外,加上《钢木兰花》,这也是第二次,被别人不看好,却被艾瑞克看好的电影大获成功。 Suddenly, many people start to inquire that which movies Eric favors. 一时间,很多人都开始打听艾瑞克都看好哪些电影。 Therefore, Eric year ago makes a series of copyright matters that Drew purchases enter the eyeballs of many person once more. 于是,艾瑞克年前让德鲁收购的一系列版权的事情再次进入了不少人的眼球。 Because small girl is not the too anxious reason, that more than 20 copyright that Eric lists only purchased the larger part. 因为小妮子并不是太急的缘故,艾瑞克列出的那20多部版权只收购了一大半。 But after two copyright that discussed were discovered that Film Studio of Hollywood all strengths have joined competition, but copyright all people also wait for a better price. 而正在谈的两部版权被发现之后,好莱坞所有实力的电影公司都加入了争夺,而版权所有人也都待价而沽起来。 In this case, Eric can only make Drew stop the purchase of copyright, although several have not succeeded in obtaining, the words that but gets rid of now will definitely fall into snatch, the certainty that attains insanely are extremely low. 这种情况下,艾瑞克只能让德鲁停下了版权的收购,虽然还有几部没有到手,但现在出手的话肯定会陷入疯抢,拿到的肯定性极低。 Moreover, several reorganization power that Eric most regards as important, such as «Charlie's Angels» / «Mission: Impossible» as well as «The Bourne Identity» and other reorganization power of movies have succeeded in obtaining. 而且,艾瑞克最看重的几部改编权,诸如《查理的天使》@/@《碟中谍》以及《伯恩的身份》等几部电影的改编权都已经到手。 Naturally, these were something to be talked about later, after «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» attained greatly was successful, the mood most complex person, without doubt is Robert Shay. 当然,这些都是后话了,而在《忍者神龟》大获成功之后,心情最复杂的人,无疑是罗伯特.谢伊。 After all, if Robert Shay can wait for the first half of the year, waits for «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles» screens, then the new line completely will be another scene. ( to be continued ) 毕竟,如果罗伯特.谢伊能够等上半年,等《忍者神龟》上映,那么新线将完全是另外一个光景。(未完待续)
