Eric rushes to New York a few days , the 65 th Oscar Academy Awards is held in the Los Angeles musical center lively, «Schindler's List» did not dispute that has become the biggest winner, the grand total attains 12 nominations, captured eight young metal statues, Steven Speilberg also finally fruitfully obtained the Oscar best Director honor. 艾瑞克赶往纽约没几天,第65届奥斯卡金像奖在洛杉矶音乐中心热热闹闹地举行,《辛德勒的名单》毫无争议地成了最大的赢家,总计拿到12项提名,斩获八座小金人,史蒂文.斯皮尔伯格也终于如愿以偿地获得了奥斯卡最佳导演的荣誉。 From initially disguised becomes the Universal Pictures staff member enters Burbank that Film Studio to start, Steven Speilberg enters the good time already 25 years, later had created a series of Box Office result by 《Jaws》 and «E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial» and 《Indiana Jones》 and other movies, it may be said that is Hollywood most successful commercial movie Director, enjoys very lofty status in Hollywood, but obtains the approval of cinema institute now, excitedly shed tears on that small podium. 从当初假装成环球影业职员进入伯班克那座制片厂开始,史蒂文.斯皮尔伯格入行时间已经25年,之后凭借《大白鲨》、《et外星人》和《夺宝奇兵》等电影创造了一系列票房成绩,可谓是好莱坞最成功的商业电影导演,在好莱坞享有非常崇高的地位,但如今获得电影学院的认可,在那小小的领奖台上还是激动地落下了眼泪。 Although the Eastern Time had approached midnight at that time, two women accompanied Eric to watch the entire presentation ceremony, when noted Spielberg to wipe the tears movement, Virginia in a low voice asked Eric, in the future he obtains Oscar Director, can also this. 虽然当时东部时间已经临近午夜,两个女人还是陪着艾瑞克看完了整个颁奖典礼,注意到斯皮尔伯格抹眼泪的动作时,维吉尼娅就低声问艾瑞克,将来他获得奥斯卡导演,会不会也这样。 Eric remembers for two years ago he obtains by 《Scent of a Woman》 changes the feeling of screenwriter this prize best, at that time he thinks one as a person of heavy labor first, to award item ownership performance the indifference of, but in presentation ceremony scene that type in the middle of the atmosphere that makes the person adrenalin increase sharply, wants to maintain calm is almost impossible. However, Eric can actually affirm, if will attain Oscar best Director in the future, excited definitely is the meeting, the possibility of crying like Spielberg is not big, because Spielberg reaches middle-age actually is also maintaining an innocence disposition, Eric already did not have any young child's heart. 艾瑞克想起两年前他凭借《闻香识女人》获得最佳改编剧本奖的感受,那个时候他本以为自己作为一个重活一世的人,会对奖项的归属表现的很淡然,但在颁奖典礼现场那种让人肾上腺素激增的氛围当中,想要保持心平气和几乎是不可能的。不过,艾瑞克却可以肯定,如果将来真的拿到奥斯卡最佳导演,激动肯定是会的,像斯皮尔伯格那样落泪的可能性却不大,因为斯皮尔伯格人到中年却还保持着一份童真心性,艾瑞克却早就没了任何稚子之心。 Last year «Twister» has not taken the ultimate visual special effect prize accidentally, Stan Winston personally the prize that arrived at to lead. Because of Eric this Director and absence of Heroine Joanna, in addition does not have the important nomination, besides best sound several technical personnel and Stan Winston and the others , the «Twister» dramatic team leading members has not attended this Oscar. «Twister» attains a technology class award item also to calculate to be better, other Firefly Pictures acceptance movies completely come away empty. 去年的《龙卷风》毫无意外地拿下了最佳视觉特效奖,斯坦.温斯顿亲自到场领的奖。因为艾瑞克这个导演和女主角乔安娜的缺席,再加上没有重要提名,除了最佳音响的几个技术人员和斯坦.温斯顿等人外,《龙卷风》的剧组主要成员都没有出席这次奥斯卡。《龙卷风》拿到一个技术类奖项还算好一些,萤火虫影业其他入围电影就全部空手而回。 Therefore. Unintentionally, after Oscar presentation ceremony, except for more than 20 years later finally merit complete Spielberg extended beyond the congratulation, many media changed to the spear point Firefly, criticized the Firefly Pictures movie to commercialize, Disney was also becoming is concerned only about profit. Only knows that the manufacture profit nature the commercial movie earns the profit, but has forgotten to the movie itself artistry and sociality and other factor of tracking down. 因此。有意无意地,奥斯卡颁奖典礼之后,除了向20多年后终于功德圆满的斯皮尔伯格表示祝贺之外,很多媒体都将矛头转到了萤火虫身上,批评萤火虫影业的电影过于商业化,连带着迪斯尼也变得唯利是图。只知道制作盈利性质的商业电影赚取利润,而忘记了对电影本身艺术性和社会性等因素的追寻。 Eric basically glances to these articles sourly, gets to the heart of the matter, was Firefly Pictures last year the performance extremely in the strong reason, 27% North America year total Box Office percentages. Platoon in following second and third adds also to be more, other Film Studio felt that is ready to make trouble some not to make people feel the accident restlessly. Thinks that opened several movies of summer files propaganda, Eric thinks after this year, other six big estimates will get angry, but they also can definitely be familiar with this condition sooner or later. 艾瑞克对这些酸溜溜地文章基本上都一瞟而过,追根究底,还是萤火虫影业去年业绩表现太过于强劲的缘故,27%的北美年度总票房占有率。比排在后面的第二名和第三名加起来还要多一些,其他电影公司感觉如坐针毡蠢蠢欲动一些并不让人感觉到意外。想到已经开启了暑期档宣传的几部影片,艾瑞克心想今年之后,其他六大估计会更加上火,但他们早晚也肯定会习惯这种状况。 After April, Virginia and Joanna entered the expected date of childbirth, all people in small manor become including Eric cautiously get up, because two women simultaneously on bosom child's reason. The possibility that although the child simultaneously was born is very low, Eric has prepared two exactly the same delivery room in the villa, Dr. even/including the team has prepared two secondary roles. 四月份之后,维吉尼娅和乔安娜都进入了预产期,小庄园里的所有人包括艾瑞克在内都变得小心翼翼起来,因为两个女人同时怀上孩子的缘故。虽然孩子同时出生的可能性很低,艾瑞克还是在别墅里准备了两套一模一样的产房,连医生团队都准备了两个班底。 Like this to April 9. Should be an ordinary Friday, Eric has had the lunch, processes the document that side some Los Angeles passes on to the study room in as usual. But Joanna sits near Eric closely associated, in the hand is holding a book, was reading peacefully. 这样一直到四月九日。本来应该是一个普普通通的星期五,艾瑞克吃过午饭,照例到书房里处理一些洛杉矶那边传过来的文件。而乔安娜如影随形地坐在艾瑞克附近,手里捧着一本书,安安静静地读着。 Criticizes the Firefly Pictures excessively commercialization topic facing the media, from top to bottom although Firefly displays unusual is desolate. How regardless of the outside said that has not made the public response, in Firefly. Discussed after several conferences that the management thinks. Oscar after all is a Hollywood important part, even if to maintain public image, Firefly should not neglect excessively. After several days of discussions, the management discussed two alternative plans. 面对媒体批评萤火虫影业过度商业化的话题,虽然萤火虫从上到下都表现的非常冷淡。无论外界怎么说都没有做出过公开的回应,不过在萤火虫内部。经过几次会议讨论,管理层一致认为。奥斯卡毕竟是好莱坞的重要一环,哪怕是为了保持公众形象,萤火虫也不应该过度忽视。经过几天的讨论,管理层商议出了两个备选方案。 One is Firefly establishes the special artistic film department, every year the fixed investments or purchase several to the art film of mysterious. Another plan is to purchase one makes the artistic film specially 23 Film Studio . Moreover, Michael Lynn and the others had including the goal, Miramax. 一个是萤火虫设置专门的艺术片部门,每年固定投资或者购买几部用于冲奥的艺术电影。另外一种方案是收购一家专门做艺术片的23线电影公司,而且,迈克尔.林恩等人连目标都有了,米拉麦克斯。 Eric regarding seeing this name is not surprised, a few years ago, Miramax also operated some best foreign language films and other surrounding award items, but in recent years, in award item public relations are getting more and more rich along with experience of Weinstein Brothers, almost attempts to bribe the best picture, best Director and best male & female leads and other Oscar core award items every year. But this year, although Miramax in achievement, because wantonly the expansion movie-making and issuing transaction also face the loss, has to choose the sell the path, but «The Crying Game» of its operation was Miramax has brought the best picture, best Director and best actor three heavyweight Oscar award nominations as before, if were not «Schindler's List» is in favor with the public, «The Crying Game» attained 1-2 award items is not impossible. 艾瑞克对于看到这个名字一点也不感到意外,前些年,米拉麦克斯还只是操作一些最佳外语片等外围奖项,但最近几年,随着韦恩斯坦兄弟在奖项公关方面的经验越来越丰富,几乎每年都企图染指最佳影片、最佳导演和最佳男女主角等奥斯卡核心奖项。而今年,虽然米拉麦克斯在业绩上因为大肆扩张制片和发行业务也面临亏损,不得不选择出售的道路,但其操作的《哭泣游戏》依旧为米拉麦克斯带来了最佳影片、最佳导演和最佳男主角三个重量级的奥斯卡奖项提名,如果不是《辛德勒的名单》众望所归,《哭泣游戏》拿到这其中一两个奖项也不是不可能的。 However, looked at the document, Eric regarding purchasing Miramax did not have the big interest, perhaps was because the opinion on these days media, Weinstein Brothers thought Firefly regarding the purchase intention of Miramax compared with several other competitors ‚urgently’, therefore has asked for the 100 million USD pricetag, but also hopes that can retain certain stock also maintains Miramax operation of single-handedly. 不过,看到手中的文件,艾瑞克对于收购米拉麦克斯就已经没有了多大的兴趣,或许是因为这段时间媒体上的言论,韦恩斯坦兄弟以为萤火虫对于米拉麦克斯的收购意向比其他几家竞争者更加‘迫切’,因此开出了一亿美元的价码,还希望能够保留一定的股份并且保持米拉麦克斯的独力运作。 A few years ago, reason that Eric chose the new line and Miramax two Film Studio achievement expands the Firefly purchase object, because mainly two Film Studio both had the relatively mature distribution circuit, although the scale was very small, so long as there is a good movie, expanded is very rapid, finally choice new line, was mainly bigger because of the scale of new line. 几年前,艾瑞克之所以选择新线和米拉麦克斯两家电影公司作为扩大萤火虫的收购对象,主要还是因为两家电影公司都已经拥有了比较成熟的发行渠道,虽然规模很小,但只要有好电影,扩张起来是非常迅速的,最后选择新线,也主要是因为新线的规模更大一些。 But now, Eric did not have the initial thoughts regarding Miramax, condition that after seeing Weinstein Brothers put forward, the interest lacked. If after purchasing Miramax, but also makes Weinstein Brothers operate alone this Film Studio. It is not willingly by two brothers only makes the mysterious prize movie to expand the Miramax thoughts wholeheartedly, in the future Firefly and Miramax will definitely return to original space and time Disney and Miramax road, separates from each other is almost the affirmative matter. 而现在,艾瑞克对于米拉麦克斯也没有了当初的心思,在看到韦恩斯坦兄弟提出的条件之后,就更加兴趣缺缺。如果收购米拉麦克斯之后,还让韦恩斯坦兄弟单独运作这家电影公司的话。以两兄弟不甘心只做奥奖影片一心扩大米拉麦克斯的心思,将来萤火虫和米拉麦克斯肯定会重蹈原时空迪斯尼与米拉麦克斯的覆辙,分道扬镳几乎是肯定的事情。 Eric did not plan that harbors the small thoughts two brothers to haul in the Disney system to add this to stop up to oneself. 艾瑞克可不打算将这怀着自己小心思的两兄弟拉进迪斯尼体系给自己添堵。 Thinks it over, Eric decides to use the first plan. 想来想去,艾瑞克还是决定使用第一套方案。 Makes up mind, Eric turns on the computer. Starts to strike own opinion in the blank documents. 拿定主意,艾瑞克打开电脑。开始在空白文档上敲打自己的意见。 Just had struck several lines of writing, the study room gate thump was sounded very much towering, Eric knit the brows has not opened the mouth to respond, a maid directly shoved open the gate probe head to come, one irritable said: „Mr. Williams, madame's amniotic fluid broke.” 刚刚敲打了几行文字,书房门很突兀地被人咚咚咚地敲响,艾瑞克皱了皱眉还没有开口回应,一个女佣就直接推开门探头进来,一脸急切地说道:“威廉姆斯先生,夫人的羊水破了。” Eric stands up suddenly: „Called to shout the doctor?” 艾瑞克猛然站起身:“打电话喊医生了吗？” „Madame just felt that belly some are uncomfortable. Ms. Pakuiyin just catches up to check to her, now madame has delivered to the delivery room.” “夫人刚刚感觉肚子有些不舒服。帕奎因女士刚好赶来给她做检查,现在夫人已经送到产房里了。” Eric transferred the desk to outward walk, takes several steps to turn head to look at Joanna: „Joan, do you have......” 艾瑞克转过书桌就要朝外走,迈出几步才扭头看了看乔安娜:“琼,你有没有……” Joanna gathers submitted a written statement, stands up to say with a smile: „Where is so skillful. Your leave alone I, quickly have a look.” 乔安娜合上了书,笑着站起身道:“哪有那么巧啊。你别管我,快去看看吧。” „You well rest here, did not use,” Eric was saying, outward walked with the maid. “那你在这里好好休息吧,就不用过去了,”艾瑞克说着,跟着女佣朝外走去。 Across the long corridor, the room that has arrived at villa another first facing south, Eric heard the sound that Virginia shrieks with pain outside, just about to pushes the door to go. In another room goes out of one to tow a nurse of tray, saw that the Eric action holds on him hastily: „Mr. Williams, you cannot go in like this. Must wear the aseptic clothing/taking first, Mary, helping Mr. Williams take the clothes.” 穿过长长的走廊,一直来到别墅另外一头一间朝南的房间,艾瑞克在外面就已经听到维吉尼娅喊痛的声音,刚要推门进去。另外一个房间里走出一位拖着一个托盘的护士,看到艾瑞克的举动连忙拉住他:“威廉姆斯先生,你不能这样进去。要先穿上无菌服,玛丽,帮威廉姆斯先生拿一下衣服。” Eric is complying, was thrown into confusion has changed the clothes, finally entered the delivery room. 艾瑞克答应着,手忙脚乱地换了衣服,才终于走进产房。 After this rebuilds the delivery room is not inferior to the upscale hospital ward of any hospital absolutely, all equipment are brand-new. When the personal doctor who Eric initially promised to be responsible for two women after using will have donated the opposite party all equipment in delivery room, opposite party excitedly almost rude. 这间改建后的产房绝对不亚于任何一家医院的高档病房,所有设备都是崭新的。艾瑞克当初答应负责两个女人的私人医生在使用过之后会将产房里的所有设备捐给对方时,对方兴奋地差点失态。 Lies down Virginia on hospital bed sees Eric to appear. Immediately extends the small hand: „Eric.” 躺在病床上的维吉尼娅看到艾瑞克出现。顿时伸出小手:“艾瑞克。” „I here,” Eric go forward to hold the small hand of woman. Has comforted, looks to the body side lobe the middle-aged woman of mask: „Ms. Pakuiyin, that is the situation what kind of?” “我在这里,”艾瑞克上前捧住女人的小手。安慰了一番,才看向身旁带着口罩的中年女人:“帕奎因女士,那个,情况怎么样？” „Relax, Mr. Williams, has me, will not have the issue, moreover Lisa under and others can also come.” “放心吧,威廉姆斯先生,有我在,不会有问题的,而且伊莉莎等下也会过来。” Lisa in middle-aged female population is the doctor of another team, Eric nodded, looks at the nurse busy appearance of doctor, also no longer disturbs, defends side Virginia peacefully. 中年女人口中的伊莉莎是另外一个团队的医生,艾瑞克点了点头,看着医生和护士忙碌的模样,也不再打搅,安静地守在维吉尼娅身边。 The time time of female life first embryo is quite always long, Eric originally, but, Virginia that this matter has prepared from afternoon amniotic fluid breakage starts, has tossed about before dawn, the kid is not willing to come out actually. 女人生第一胎的时候时间总是比较长,艾瑞克本来对这件事还是有所准备的,不过,维吉尼娅从下午羊水破裂开始,一直折腾到凌晨,小家伙硬是不愿意出来。 Complexion somewhat pale Virginia hears Eric to discuss with the doctor in a low voice, once 12 hours, when the kid does not have the sound uses the Caesarean birth, immediately lowers the lowland to call: „Eric, I do not want Caesarean birth, heard that such child will change silly.” 脸色有些苍白的维吉尼娅听到艾瑞克低声与医生讨论一旦过了12个小时,小家伙没有动静就采用剖腹产时,立刻低低地叫了起来:“艾瑞克,我不要剖腹产,听说那样孩子会变傻的。” „Do not talk nonsense, how possibly changes silly, you are lying down well,” Eric sits down by the woman, holds up her hand to comfort low voice. “不要胡说了,怎么可能会变傻,你好好躺着,”艾瑞克又在女人旁边坐下,拉起她的手小声安抚。 „The meeting of meeting, I do not want the Caesarean birth in any case.” “会的会的,反正我不要剖腹产。” Eric somewhat slightly reluctantly said: „You try hard, hurrying makes the kid come out.” 艾瑞克有些小无奈地说道:“那你就努努力,赶紧让小家伙出来。” „Hurts......” “疼……” „Then on Caesarean birth.” “那就剖腹产。” „Hum...... Blames you.” “呜呜……都怪你。” „Is is, blames me, do not cry, relaxes, relaxes.” “是是是,怪我,你别哭啊,放松,放松。” „I was hungry.” “我饿了。” „In kitchen cooked gruel, I help you take,” Eric was saying, left the delivery room in a hurry. “厨房里熬了粥,我去帮你拿,”艾瑞克说着,匆匆出了产房。 The hostesses are in labor, all people have not rested, in entire villa brilliantly illuminated, Eric passed by the living room, Joanna also sits accompanied by maid on the sofa speaks this saying in a low voice, sees Eric to come out, Joanna asked hastily: „Eric, how?” 女主人临产,所有人都没有休息,整座别墅里灯火通明,艾瑞克路过客厅,乔安娜在一个女佣的陪同下还坐在沙发上低声说这话,看到艾瑞克出来,乔安娜连忙问道:“艾瑞克,怎么样了？” Eric shook the head: „Dr. Pakuiyin has said for 12 hours, if did not have the sound, best Caesarean birth. I help Vicky take the point to eat, Joan, you earlier rest.” 艾瑞克摇了摇头:“帕奎因医生说过了12个小时,如果还没有动静,最好剖腹产。我帮维姬取点吃的,琼,你还是早点休息吧。” „All right, I cannot fall asleep,” Joanna shook the head gently, the hand has caressed the abdomen gently, perhaps was affected by Virginia, she felt that the belly somewhat is slightly painful, but has regarded past many time normal phenomena, for does not make Eric be worried that has not said that continues saying: „Gina just also asked that must eat, you go to the kitchen to take quickly.” “没事的,我也睡不着,”乔安娜轻轻摇了摇头,手轻轻抚了抚腹部,或许是受到维吉尼娅的影响,她感觉肚子微微有些痛,不过只是当成了以往很多次的正常现象,为了不让艾瑞克担心,并没有说出来,继续道:“吉娜刚刚还问要不要吃的,你快去厨房取吧。” Looks at Eric to enter the kitchen, holds a bowl to come out quickly, defends said in Joanna maid in a soft voice: „Mr. Williams may sympathize.” 看着艾瑞克钻进厨房,很快又捧着一只碗出来,守在乔安娜身边的女佣轻声道:“威廉姆斯先生可真体贴。” „Yes,” Joanna said gently that felt the abdomen stabbing pain transmits again, knit the brows slightly, puts out a hand to try to find out that places remote control, wants to turn on the television to shift the attention, moves slightly moves the body, bumps into the remote control at the same time, she also saw on the sofa light water-damaged. “是啊,”乔安娜轻轻地说道,感觉腹部刺痛再一次传来,微微皱了皱眉,伸手去摸索放在身边的遥控器,想要打开电视转移一下注意力,微微挪动了动身体,碰到遥控器的同时,她也看到了沙发上一片淡淡的水渍。 The maids just about to say anything, looks following the Joanna dull vision that immediately covers mouth to call: „Oh, my oh God.” 女佣刚要说什么,顺着乔安娜呆呆的目光看去,顿时捂着嘴叫起来:“哦,我的天啊。” Spoke these words, the maid sets out to run anxiously toward the delivery room. 说完这句话,女佣就起身紧张地朝产房跑去。 The Joanna amniotic fluid also broke...... Hears this news Eric to be almost helpless, the doctors have been divided into two small teams actually very much calmly, a border defense a person. 乔安娜的羊水也破了……听到这个消息的艾瑞克差点手足无措,倒是医生们很镇定地分成了两个小团队,一边守着一个人。 For safety's sake, Dr. Pakuiyin proposed that Eric can contact with 1-2 doctors to come again. Runs into such skillful matter, Eric also radically no longer considered the matter that anything keeps secret, complied with the suggestion of opposite party immediately, Dr. Pakuiyin sees Eric to agree that then recommended own two colleagues to give Eric. 为了保险起见,帕奎因医生提议艾瑞克能够再联系一两位医生过来。碰到这么巧的事情,艾瑞克也根本不再考虑什么保密的事情,立刻就答应了对方的建议,帕奎因医生见艾瑞克同意,便推荐了自己的两个同行给艾瑞克。 Nearby resident noted this brilliantly illuminated manor, two helicopters fly one after another and land after the small manor are more curious, some people also warm-heartedly inquired into, but has not gotten the answer from gate guard there. 附近的居民本来就注意到了这处灯火通明的庄园,两架直升机陆续飞来并降落在小庄园后就更加好奇,有些人还热心地过来打问,不过都没有从门卫那里得到答案。 Eric just took helicopter to see that with that he also somewhat surprised doctor simply discussed several, then entered the Joanna delivery room. 艾瑞克与那位刚刚乘坐直升机过来看到他还有些惊讶的医生简单的谈了几句,便钻进了乔安娜的产房。 Sees Eric to come, bit Joanna of lip to extend the small hand toward him slightly immediately. 看到艾瑞克过来,本来微微咬着嘴唇的乔安娜立刻朝他伸了伸小手。 Saw that the man holds on his small hand to comfort in a soft voice, Joanna could not bear cry peacefully: „Eric......” 看到男人拉住自己的小手轻声安慰,一直安安静静地乔安娜还是忍不住哭了出来:“艾瑞克……” „All right, all right, quick, relax.” Eric one after another comforts saying that put out a hand to wipe the corner of the eye for Joanna. “没事,没事,很快的,放心吧。”艾瑞克一连串地安慰道,伸手替乔安娜抹了抹眼角。 Joanna shook the head gently, the deep sorrow said timidly: „It is not, Eric, I meant, I, my child did not call Hawaii.” ( to be continued ) 乔安娜轻轻摇了摇头,哀哀怯怯地说道:“不是,艾瑞克,我是说,我,我的孩子不叫夏威夷。”(未完待续)
