Nicole is listening to Eric and Wu Baige conversation peacefully, although the majority of time were Wu pigeon were saying, but, often said ‚this not good......’ and ‚I to think from Eric could such......’ and so on words, Nicole quickly understands, the rhythm that they talked was being controlled by Eric as before, this made her feel relieved thoroughly. 妮可安静地听着艾瑞克与吴白鸽的交谈,虽然大部分时间都是吴白鸽在说,不过,从艾瑞克不时说出‘这样不行……’、‘我觉得或许可以那样……’之类的话语,妮可还是很快明白,两人对话的节奏依旧被艾瑞克控制着,这让她彻底放下心来。 Although Nicole arrives at the Hollywood 2-3 years, but along with the promotion of fame and status, Nicole will have treated as a Hollywood member, therefore, she is the same with many other people, the heart of hearts to initially enters the Hollywood outcomer to have Basic Instinct not to trust, if this project has not related with Eric, the movie-making side persists in beginning using Hong Kong Director, she already on own initiative withdrew from the dramatic team. 虽然妮可才到好莱坞两三年时间,但随着名气和地位的提升,妮可已经将自己当做了好莱坞的一份子,因此,她和其他很多人一样,内心深处都对初入好莱坞的外来者有着本能地不信任,如果这个项目跟艾瑞克没关系,制片方又坚持启用一个香港导演的话,她早就主动退出剧组了。 Time one minute one second of place passes, out of the window weather fades out, well satisfied Eric said: „Mr. Wu, arrived here today, was very happy that among us happens to hold the same view in many shoots ideas, believes that then our cooperation will be happy.” 时间一分一秒地过去,窗外天色渐暗的时候,心满意足的艾瑞克说道:“吴先生,今天就到这里吧,很高兴我们之间在很多拍摄想法上都不谋而合,相信接下来我们的合作会非常愉快。” Wu Baige also with a smile stands up: „I also hope so.” 吴白鸽也笑着站起身:“我也希望如此。” Although own many shoots idea was denied by Eric, the present situation compared with has been much better, at least, Eric that he imagines promised personally, so long as before the movie begins shooting both sides achieve consistently in the shoots idea, in the shoots process, he will obtain enough authority, this point is Wu Baige most wants. 虽然自己的不少拍摄想法都被艾瑞克否定了,不过现在的情况已经比他想象的要好得多,至少,艾瑞克亲自许诺,只要在电影开拍之前双方在拍摄理念上达成一致,那么在拍摄过程中,他会获得足够的权力,这一点是吴白鸽最想要的。 After all, in Hollywood, majority of time Director is only one is higher than other dramatic team people the first-level laborer, especially these produce the movie greatly, Director not only will receive impeding of movie-making side, even must give in to these famous Actor, but Eric gives him to promise like this that Wu Baige did not suspect absolutely in the future he will pour water in the authority of dramatic team, after all, opposite this young people, although is young, is Hollywood most has power and influence one of the several people. 毕竟,在好莱坞,大部分时候导演只是一个比剧组其他人更高一级的打工仔而已,特别是那些大制作电影,导演不但会受到制片方的掣肘,甚至还要迁就那些大牌演员,而艾瑞克给他这样的许诺,吴白鸽绝对不怀疑将来他在剧组的权力会被注水,毕竟,对面这个年轻人虽然岁数不大,却是好莱坞最有权势的几个人之一。 The group go out of the conference room shoulder to shoulder, across corridor time, several people including Nicole fell on behind. Eric said to Wu Baige: „Mr. Wu, before thinking you come, definitely to Hollywood has made the full understanding.” 一行人并肩走出会议室,穿过走廊的时候,包括妮可在内的几个人都落在了后面。艾瑞克对身旁的吴白鸽道:“吴先生,想必你来之前肯定对好莱坞做过充分的了解。” Wu Baige nods, does not know that Eric will mention these suddenly. 吴白鸽点点头,不知道艾瑞克突然会提到这些。 Eric then said: „I know that Hong Kong has the outstanding film-maker, but. Hollywood is very antiforeign, but will be more obvious to the repel of non-white race, in the future shoots time, you will definitely meet these.” 艾瑞克接着说道:“我知道香港有很多出色的电影人,不过。好莱坞是非常排外的,而对有色人种的排斥会更加明显,将来拍摄的时候,你肯定会遇到这些。” Wu Baige like the non-white race in United States native place year to year by all kinds of the recessive discrimination, naturally could not be realized in the Eric words the meaning of deeper level. He said: „Relax, Mr. Williams, if has this situation, I will take the larger situation into account.” 吴白鸽不像美国本土的有色人种那样常年受到各种各样的隐性歧视,当然也就体会不到艾瑞克话里更深层次的含义。他只是说道:“放心吧,威廉姆斯先生,如果出现这种情况,我会以大局为重的。” „No, does not exercise forbearance any use,” Eric shook the head, said: „If you want to obtain the approval of Hollywood, the only way, then brings enough benefit for the film executive. So long as you can make Film Studio make money, regardless of you are the person of Asian descent or the melanoderm. They will regard the guest you.” “不,忍让没有任何用处,”艾瑞克摇了摇头,道:“如果你想要获得好莱坞的认可,唯一的方式,便是为片商带来足够的利益。只要你能让电影公司赚钱,无论你是黄种人还是黑种人。他们都会把你当成座上宾。” „I will certainly make contribution,” Wu Baige, although was saying, but in the expression brings some not to be self-confident, any movie is an investment gambles, who can affirm that certainly will win? “我一定会尽力,”吴白鸽虽然这么说着,但语气里却带着一些不自信,任何一部电影都是一场投资赌博,谁能肯定一定会赢呢？ „I have watched your many movies, «A Better Tomorrow» and «The Killer» and «Loyal heart Groups of heroes» as well as last year «Able to move unhindered All sea», this is you will also receive this movie film approximately reason, reason that but, can I just decide your many shoots idea , because these things may suit the Hong Kong movie of ocean opposite shore. But in Hollywood, is invalid. Therefore, although after we reach the agreement, I will give your enough authority. But also hopes you can maintain oneself shoots style at the same time, complies with the Hollywood rule, you also know that my status, a success or failure of movie I am, but you who withstands actually cannot withstand.” “我看过你的很多电影,《英雄本色》、《喋血双雄》、《义胆群英》以及去年的《纵横四海》,这也是你会接到这部电影片约的原因,不过,我刚刚之所以会否定你的很多拍摄想法,就是因为那些东西或许会适合大洋对岸的香港电影。但在好莱坞,却是行不通的。所以,虽然我们双方达成协议之后,我会给你足够的权力。但也希望你能够保持自己拍摄风格的同时,更加顺应好莱坞的规则,你也知道我的身份,一部电影的成败我是承受的起的,但你却承受不起。” Wu Baige could certainly hear Eric to speak these words stemming from the good intention, although he did not know both sides first meeting. The good intention of this young Hollywood big shot came from where, but this cannot prevent Wu Baige gratitude: „Mr. Williams, relax, I will not disappoint your trust absolutely.” 吴白鸽当然听得出艾瑞克说这一番话是出于好意,虽然他并不知道双方才第一次见面。这位年轻的好莱坞大亨的好意从何而来,但这并不能阻挡吴白鸽的感激:“威廉姆斯先生,放心吧,我绝对不会辜负你的信任。” Eric has not said anything with a smile again, he right Wu Baige makes these reminders as the previous life gun battle piece movie fan friendship, but the standpoint of both sides after all the day badly left now, if Wu Baige really has screwed up «Mr. & Mrs. Smith», then he also can only return to Hong Kong obediently. However, this, because time is hurried, Wu Baige has not said ‚no longer returns to Hong Kong makes movie’ and so on ‚brave words’, even if goes back not to have any psychological burden. 艾瑞克笑着没再说什么,作为前世的枪战片影迷情分他才对对吴白鸽做出这些提醒,不过现在双方的立场毕竟已经天差地别,如果吴白鸽真的把《史密斯夫妇》搞砸了,那么他也只能乖乖地返回香港。不过,这一世因为时间匆忙,吴白鸽并没有说出‘不再回香港拍电影’之类的‘豪言壮语’,哪怕回去也没什么心理负担。 After Director arrives, then was the choice of actor, in «Mr. & Mrs. Smith» the male & female leads actor's pay accounts for 80% of entire piece total length, therefore, this actor besides must charming, but also needs enough performing skill and aura. 导演到位之后,接下来便是男主角的选择,《史密斯夫妇》中男女主角的戏份占到了全片总长度的80,因此,这位男主角除了必须帅气之外,还需要有足够的演技和气场。 Because is Eric personally compilation script, and also holds the post of Producer, therefore, Hollywood, so long as had an actor who the running schedule met the condition basically to express the participating performance intention, even many method quite broad 23 actors related Eric through all kinds of relations I. 因为是艾瑞克亲自编写的剧本并且还担任制作人,因此,好莱坞只要有档期又符合条件的一线男星基本上都表达了参演意向,甚至很多门路比较广的23线男星都通过各种各样的关系联系到了艾瑞克本人。 „Eric, I think Mel Gibson to be good, he is the summer files Warner principal «Lethal Weapon 3» actor, can definitely plays the promoter action to «Mr. & Mrs. Smith» Box Office,” about the symposium of actor, Peter Guber so said. “艾瑞克,我觉得梅尔吉布森不错,他是暑期档华纳主打的《致命武器3》男主角,肯定能够对《史密斯夫妇》的票房起到促进作用,”关于男主角的讨论会上,彼得古柏如此说道。 «Mr. & Mrs. Smith» the age limit of actor arrives between 40 in the 30 year, the Hollywood actor warranty is very long, the actor of this stage, often also most has the stage of masculine charm, Eric is listening to the Peter Guber words, lowers the head to glance through front material, alternative actor who so far, the dramatic team has screened including Mel Gibson, Bruce Willis, Liam Neeson, Kevin Costner wait/etc., even handed over the screen test application including Sylvester Stallone manager. 《史密斯夫妇》的男主角的年龄限制在三十岁到40岁之间,好莱坞的男星保质期都很长,这个阶段的男星,往往也是最有男性魅力的阶段,艾瑞克听着彼得古柏的话,低头翻阅着面前的资料,到目前为止,剧组已经筛选出来的备选男主角包括梅尔吉布森、布鲁斯威利斯、连姆尼森、凯文科斯特纳等等,甚至连西尔维斯特史泰龙的经纪人都递过来了试镜申请。 After «Rocky 5» Box Office disastrous defeats, Stallone has been in the ebb tide time of enterprise in the two years, although opposite party manager telephones directly Eric, the condition that put forward also had the sincerity, but Eric quickly has rejected, Stallone was the action star is not false, but that facial paralysis face regarding an action movie of comedy style, definitely was a disaster. 《洛奇5》票房惨败之后,史泰龙这两年来一直处于事业的低潮期,虽然对方的经纪人直接打电话到艾瑞克这边,提出的条件也非常有诚意,不过艾瑞克还是很快就拒绝了,史泰龙是动作明星不假,但那张面瘫脸对于一部略带喜剧风格的动作片来说,肯定是一场灾难。 „No, Peter, Mel Gibson is not good, he gives the person to be too many wild uninhibited feeling, the actor who I want, in the best sex appeal to have a gentry demeanor, Mel Gibson to be possible with the gentleman unable to touch on slightly,” Eric shakes the head to say. Although in original space and time Mel Gibson, because instead as if to say discussed by black discredited, but this did not have anything to relate with Eric, in Hollywood, had the moral cleanliness person is very difficult to survive. He purely thought that Mel Gibson is inappropriate. “不,彼得,梅尔吉布森不行,他给人太多野性不羁的感觉,我想要的男主角,最好性感中带着一丝绅士风度,梅尔吉布森可跟绅士沾不上边,”艾瑞克摇头说道。虽然原时空里梅尔吉布森因为反犹言论被黑的声名狼藉,不过这跟艾瑞克可没什么关系,在好莱坞,拥有道德洁癖的人是很难生存的。他只是纯粹地觉得梅尔吉布森不合适。 „That Bruce Willis?” Peter Guber also said a heavyweight actor, is in the enterprise peak time by many action movies Bruce Willis. “那布鲁斯威利斯呢？”彼得古柏又说出了一个重量级的男星,凭借多部动作片正处于事业巅峰期的布鲁斯威利斯。 Eric somewhat helpless gaining ground, said: „Peter, what we need is an appropriate actor, but only does not consider their Box Office rallying point. You make Bruce Willis replace Schwarzenegger to hold the post of The Terminator, or makes Mel Gibson develop «Die Hard», you thought that two movies can also succeed?” 艾瑞克有些无奈的抬起头,说道:“彼得,我们需要的是一个合适的男主角,而不是只考虑他们的票房号召力。你让布鲁斯威利斯代替施瓦辛格担任终结者,或者让梅尔吉布森去演《虎胆龙威》,你觉得那两部电影还能成功吗？” Peter Guber waved: „Good, Eric, you must have a candidate, we discussed one week, can't consume like this?” 彼得古柏挥了挥手:“好吧,艾瑞克,那你总得有一个人选吧,我们已经讨论了一个星期了,总不能这样耗下去？” Eric tidies up front material, stands up saying: „Today arrived here, I go back to consider, over the two days I will arrange a screen test. If incorrect words, expanded screen test range.” 艾瑞克将面前的资料收拾好,站起身道:“今天就到这里吧,我回去在考虑一下,这两天我会安排一场试镜。如果不行的话,就扩大试镜范围。” ...... …… Returned to Cliff Peak Manor, Eric just to get out, saw that red Ferrari sports car drove across the road in manor, when crossed the Eric side was also bringing breeze. 回到尖角庄园,艾瑞克刚刚下车,就看到一辆红色的法拉利跑车穿过庄园的甬道驶了过来,越过艾瑞克身边时还带着一阵小风。 After Ferrari stop, wears the tall and slender girl of tight-fitting black leather not to get out immediately, lies on the steering wheel, picks to turn one's face on sunglasses to show the charming smile to Eric: „Hey, dear, didn't recognize me to come?” 法拉利停稳之后,身着紧身黑色皮装的高挑女郎没有立刻下车,趴在方向盘上,摘掉脸上的蛤蟆镜对艾瑞克露出迷人的微笑:“嘿,亲爱的,认不出我来了？” Eric shook the head with a smile. Looks that on Ferrari in the smiling face brings wild Famke Janssen, Eric to feel in the mind a miraculous glow flashes past, actually cannot hold. 艾瑞克笑着摇了摇头。看着法拉利上笑容中带着一丝野性地法米克詹森,艾瑞克感觉脑海中一丝灵光一闪而过,却没能抓住。 Famke Janssen actually does not know that Eric thinks anything at heart, opens the vehicle door to get out. Comes to pull the arm of Eric saying: „Walks, what stands makes here?” 法米克詹森却不知道艾瑞克心里想什么,推开车门下了车。过来挽着艾瑞克的胳膊道:“走啦,站在这里做什么？” „No, I resemble...... Let me think.” “别,我好像……让我想想。” Famke Janssen stopped the footsteps, the doubts was looking at Eric, was waiting for patiently. 法米克詹森停下了脚步,疑惑地望着艾瑞克,耐心地等待着。 „consider as finished, walks.” A moment later, Eric gave up struggling, draws Famke Janssen to walk toward the villa: „How today to come, immediately was Oscar, don't you need to participate in public relations party?” “算了,走吧。”片刻之后,艾瑞克放弃了挣扎,拉着法米克詹森朝别墅走去:“今天怎么过来了,马上就是奥斯卡了,你难道不需要参加公关派对吗？” „Do I have the nomination, participates in party to be useful,” Famke Janssen somewhat reluctantly said that «Thelma & Louise» obtained many Oscar nominations, the situation that but, in the original space and time double Heroine is nominated has not appeared, Famke Janssen wanted to win over a female Lord report female to match the nomination to brush the popularity, but TG was only Susan Sarandon reported best Heroine, added that she was only a new person, even if in the report not necessarily were nominated, will also waste the TG's public relations resources, Famke Janssen knows certainly that was Elizabeth that several women is playing the small thoughts, if it is estimated that were not Eric opens the mouth personally, She cannot attain the role in «Thelma & Louise», but Famke Janssen was also disinclined to say these matters with Eric. “我有没有提名,参加派对有什么用,”法米克詹森有些无奈地说道,《末路狂花》获得了多项奥斯卡提名,不过,原时空中双女主角都获得提名的情况并没有出现,法米克詹森本来想要争取一个女主报女配提名刷刷人气,但tg却只为苏珊萨兰登报了一个最佳女主角,还说她只是一个新人,就算报上了也不一定获得提名,还会浪费tg的公关资源,法米克詹森当然知道是伊丽莎白那几个女人在玩小心思,估计如果不是艾瑞克亲自开口,她根本就拿不到《末路狂花》里的角色,不过法米克詹森也懒得跟艾瑞克说这些事情。 However, saw the Famke Janssen depressed appearance, Eric actually approximately guessed correctly the long and short of the story of matter: „You the performance in «Thelma & Louise» are very outstanding, will turn head I to say their several, how can like this.” 不过,看到法米克詹森闷闷不乐的模样,艾瑞克却大致猜出了事情的来龙去脉:“你在《末路狂花》里的表现还是很出色的,回头我会说说她们几个的,怎么能这样。” „, You give up, that is three Oh,” Famke Janssen ridicules said. “切,你舍得,那可是三个哦,”法米克詹森不无揶揄地说道。 Eric holds in the arms the waist of Famke Janssen, said earnestly: „In me, you are unique, who nobody is light to be heavy.” 艾瑞克搂住法米克詹森的腰肢,认真地说道:“在我心里,你们都是独一无二的,没有谁轻谁重。” „You also really rodomontade,......” Famke Janssen just about to does not continue to open the mouth, was kissed the red lip by Eric. “你还真是大言不惭,唔……”法米克詹森刚要继续开口,就被艾瑞克吻住了红唇。 Has hugged and kissed the moment, feels a Eric hand slowly to sliding from own waist, Famke Janssen shoves open Eric hastily: „Does not want, this is outside.” 拥吻了片刻,感受到艾瑞克一只手慢慢从自己腰间向下滑,法米克詹森连忙推开艾瑞克:“不要啊,这是外面呢。” „We return to the villa, in the evening I go to the kitchen for you personally do delicious, what kind of?” “那我们回别墅里,晚上我亲自下厨为你做好吃的,怎么样？” „Probably...... Did not anticipate that” Famke Janssen has smiled, the Eric cook is also same . Moreover, the custom that previous life brings makes the thing that Eric makes not conform to the appetite of woman. “好像……一点都不期待啊,”法米克詹森笑了起来,艾瑞克的厨艺也就一般般,而且,前世带来的习惯让艾瑞克做出来的东西并不符合身边女人的胃口。 Eric shows ‚discontentedly’ look: „Hello, is not intimate, I have been busy at one all day, comes back to give back to you to do to eat, you at least also in the quart two aren't?” 艾瑞克露出‘不满’地神色:“喂,太不贴心了吧,我忙了一整天,回来还给你做吃的,你至少也得夸上两句不是？” „consider as finished, I make the supper,” Famke Janssen said. “算了,还是我来做晚餐吧,”法米克詹森说道。 „We together.” “那我们一起。” They chatted were entering the villa, had the supper, Eric has entered the study room, Famke Janssen also followed. 两人谈笑着走进了别墅,吃过晚餐,艾瑞克钻进了书房,法米克詹森也跟了进来。 „For a long time has not seen your this wall,” Famke Janssen joins hands behind the back along that pastes the rough draft wall to walk completely, often will put out a hand to take down a draft to look at carefully several carefully, pastes carefully. “好久没见你这面墙了,”法米克詹森背着手沿着那面贴满了草稿的墙边走了一遍,不时会伸手取下一张稿子仔细端详几眼,又小心地贴回去。 Eric echoes in a low voice, sits in the male Actor screen test list that by desk reads to bring, in the hand takes a pencil occasionally to take the note. 艾瑞克低声应和着,坐在书桌旁翻看着带回来的男演员试镜名单,手里拿着一只铅笔偶尔做着笔记。 Regarding Hollywood many movies, delaying the time most to be longest, often is script, many movie script must undergo the multiple revision, but, «Mr. & Mrs. Smith» actually directly crossed this most difficult ridge, adds on two big Film Studio to give the green light again continually, this movie arrangement can be possible be called the extremely fast, so long as now can designate the actor, the dramatic team can since the preliminary wearing in stage. 对于好莱坞很多电影来说,拖得时间最长的,往往是剧本,很多电影剧本都要经过多次的修改,不过,《史密斯夫妇》却直接越过了这道最艰难的坎儿,再加上两大电影公司连开绿灯,这部电影筹备可以堪称极速,现在只要能够选定男主角,剧组就可以进入前期的磨合阶段。 Famke Janssen shook in the study room, finally arrives by the Eric desk, put out a hand to support the tabletop to jump onto the spacious desk gently, pulled out a pencil and paper knife from Eric front pen container, has drawn the ash-tray, was truncating the pencil cautiously. 法米克詹森在书房里晃了一圈,最后来到艾瑞克书桌旁,伸手撑着桌面轻轻跃上了宽大的书桌,从艾瑞克面前的笔筒里抽出一支铅笔和裁纸刀,将烟灰缸拉了过来,小心翼翼地削着铅笔。 „Hello, why do you always use the pencil?” After Famke Janssen truncates a pencil, with is manipulating in the hand, asked curiously. “喂,你为什么总是用铅笔啊？”法米克詹森削好一支铅笔之后,拿在手里摆弄着,好奇地问道。 Eric was hearing on girl the light body fragrant, said careless: „Custom, this can appear I am out of the ordinary, occasionally can also bring to pick up the little girl, look, has swallowed the bait.” 艾瑞克闻着身边女郎身上淡淡的体香,漫不经心地说道:“习惯,这样可以显得我与众不同,偶尔还可以拿来泡妞,看,又上钩了一个。” Famke Janssen has gawked the moment, understood quickly, lifted the longleg to select on Eric with a smile under: „You cannot proper.” 法米克詹森愣了片刻,很快明白了过来,笑着抬起长腿在艾瑞克身上挑了下:“你就不能正经一点。” „Proper, that is the custom, did not have other, one side” Eric placed a material with a smile, transferred the leather chair to look to the girl: „Was good, looked the appearance that you have started to speak but hesitated, said that what matter?” “正经一点,那就是习惯,没有其他了,”艾瑞克笑着将一份资料放在一边,转过皮椅看向女郎:“好了,看你一直欲言又止的模样,说吧,到底什么事情？” Famke Janssen shyly, somewhat embarrassed said: „Did you start a movie recently?” 法米克詹森扭捏了下,才有些不好意思地说道:“你最近是不是又启动了一部电影吗？” „Brad Pitt?” The Eric faint smile asked. “布拉德皮特？”艾瑞克似笑非笑地问道。 „Was good, you guessed, he asked me to eat meal yesterday,” Famke Janssen was saying, noted the Eric complexion, explained hastily: „Is and his manager same place, you time have scared him, he does not dare to be together with me alone.” “好了,你都猜出来了,他昨天请我吃饭,”法米克詹森说着,注意到艾瑞克的脸色,连忙解释道:“是和他的经纪人一起,你那次把他吓坏了,他根本不敢和我单独相处。” Eric has certainly to think of the «Mr. & Mrs. Smith» original actor, but, even if he does not count the past animosity to agree that will have «X-Files» half copyright Fox resolutely will also oppose, after all, if Brad Pitt were hot by this movie, that «X-Files» also did shoot?( To be continued.) 艾瑞克当然不是没有想到《史密斯夫妇》的原版男主角,不过,就算他不计前嫌同意下来,拥有《x档案》一半版权的福克斯也会坚决反对,毕竟,要是布拉德皮特凭借这部电影火了,那《x档案》还怎么拍？(未完待续。) ... ...
