Even if investmenttenableYahooand other Internet companies, initialinvestmentalsoinsurelyrank.
他这一次的举动确实与以往有所不同,在前几次面对思科、美国在线等公司进行投资的时候,这些企业的发展前景都比较明朗,而且涉及到的资金并不算太多。哪怕是投资成立的雅虎等三家网络公司,当初的投资也只是在千万级别。Butthistimesituationhas very bigdifference, Nokiatakes a FinnishscaleverybigGroup, although the developmentis bogged down in difficulties, butfrom the acquiredfinancial datamaterial, thisonlysoon the camel of skinnyas beforehasabout the 1.1 billionUSDledger assets, butfrom the personal opinion of Eric, isattains certainlymorestocksto be better, ifcanswallowcompletely, hedid not mind that poundsto come in the fund in Fireflyinvestmenthandcompletely.
但这一次的情况却有很大的差别,诺基亚作为芬兰一家规模很大的集团公司,虽然发展陷入困境,但从收集到的财务数据资料来看,这只快要瘦死的骆驼依旧拥有11亿美元左右的账面资产,而从艾瑞克的个人意见来看,当然是拿到越多的股份越好,如果能够全部吞下,他也不介意将萤火虫投资手中的资金全部砸进来。EricstayedinBerlin for severaldays, thencreates the teamto move toParisalong with the «Jurassic Park»Lord, preparesformovieFrenchpreview ceremony.艾瑞克又在柏林停留了几天,便随着《侏罗纪公园》的主创团队移师巴黎,为电影的法国首映式做准备。At this time the timearrived in mid July, «Jurassic Park»has screenedsixweeks of timeinNorth America, Box Officebroke through300 millionUSDwith ease, regarding«Jurassic Park»in the North AmericacompetitiveBox Officedigital curve, the nativemediafrominitially the firstweekbrokenhundred millionexclamation, turned into the presentnumbnessas before, movieNorth AmericaBox Officewill break throughfourhundred millionUSDalmostnot to have the matter of anysuspenseover the next several weeks, butwhethercanbreak through500 millionthisastonishingfigures, the discussion that evokesas ifalsodoes not appearthatwarm, after all, 400 millionare500 million, regarding the Hollywoodmajority ofmovies, is similar to a personlooks up . The stars of sky, little personwill ponder oversomestarto the 100light years, is1000light years, theseappearedtooremote.
此时时间已经来到了七月中旬,《侏罗纪公园》在北美已经上映六周时间,票房轻松突破了三亿美元,对于《侏罗纪公园》在北美依旧后劲十足的票房数字曲线,本土媒体已经从当初首周破亿的惊叹,变成了现在的麻木,影片北美票房在未来几周内突破四亿美元几乎是没有任何悬念的事情,而是否能够突破500000000这个惊人的数字,引起的讨论似乎也并不显得那么热烈,毕竟,无论是400000000还是500000000,对于好莱坞大部分影片来说,都如同一个人去仰望。天空的星辰,很少人会去琢磨某颗星星到底是离自己100光年,还是1000光年,那些都显得太遥远了。«Jurassic Park»overseasBox Officealsobroke through300 millionUSDin the sixthweek, totalBox Officeachievessixhundred millionUSDfigures. AndUnited KingdomBox Office that screenswithNorth Americasame timeappears the especiallybrighteye, screenedsixweeks of timeBox Officeto be57millionpounds, it is expected thattotalBox Officewill surpass a 70 millionpoundtop digit.

Thisisoneregarding the monsterexceptionallyinfatuatedcountry, in the Ericmemory, althoughdoes not have the specificfigure, but«Jurassic Park»broke through100 millionUSDinJapanBox Officeabsolutely.
《侏罗纪公园》的海外票房也同时在第六周突破了三亿美元,总票房达到六亿美元的数字。其中与北美同期上映的英国票房显得尤为亮眼,上映六周时间票房达到了5700万英镑,预计总票房将超过7000万英镑的高位。而与此同时,《侏罗纪公园》在法国、西班牙、日本等海外票仓国家也将在最近一段时间陆续开画。特别是日本。这是一个对于怪兽异常痴迷的国家,艾瑞克的记忆中虽然没有具体数字,但《侏罗纪公园》在日本的票房绝对是突破了一亿美元。Although«Jurassic Park»is harvestingBox Officeinworld the crazily, creates the Box Officemiracles. But the movie of thiscreationmiracleactuallycannotcause the local mediapositivereactioninanynationalarea. The media of EuropemanycountryusesnearlyinLanglai the toneare appraising«Jurassic Park» in recent several months, butFrance that Ericstops overat this timeespeciallyso.
虽然《侏罗纪公园》在世界各地疯狂地收割着票房,创造一个又一个的票房奇迹。但这部创造奇迹的影片却并不是在任何国家地区都能引起当地媒体正面反响的。欧洲很多国家的媒体在最近几个月都在用一种近乎于狼来了的口吻评价《侏罗纪公园》,而艾瑞克此时落脚的法国尤其如此。As the place of origin of movie. The Frenchhave been proudwith the movieindustry of our country, the Frenchmovietrulyhave also presented a verymagnificenttime, togreet the «Jurassic Park»thisonlyBox Officegiant beast, guards the Frenchmovie‚dignity’, the French the Frenchmoviehistoryspentbiggestmovie《Germinal》to placeinopensin the picturerunning schedulewith«Jurassic Park»same time. Thisreorganizationis the 100 million64 millionfrancsfrom the Frenchwork《Germinal》filmmakingcost, about3000ten thousandUSD, is jointly investedby more than tenFrenchFilm Studio, trulycan be said asso far the Frenchinvestmenthighestmovie.
作为电影的发源地。法国人一直非常自豪与本国的电影产业,法国电影也确实出现过一段非常辉煌的时期,而为了迎接《侏罗纪公园》这只票房巨兽,捍卫法国电影的‘尊严’,法国人将法国电影史上耗资最大的电影《萌芽》放在了与《侏罗纪公园》同期开画的档期上。这部改编自法国巨著《萌芽》的电影制作成本达到一亿64000000法郎,约合3000多万美元,由十多家法国电影公司联合投资,确实可以说是目前为止法国投资最高的电影。RegardingFrench'sresponse, Erichas a thoughtat heart, why bother?
对于法国人的这种反应,艾瑞克心里只有一个念头,何苦呢?What《Germinal》narratedwas the miserable liveexperience of the 19 th centuryendFranceminer. When longnearlythreehours, it can be said that an absolutebigstuffypiece, puts togetherBox Officewiththis kind ofmovieandentertainingfull«Jurassic Park»hardly, Ericcannot find out the secondresult.《萌芽》讲述的是十九世纪末期法国矿工的悲惨生活经历。时长将近三个小时,可以说是一部绝绝对对的大闷片,拿这样一部电影与娱乐性十足的《侏罗纪公园》硬拼票房,艾瑞克根本想不出第二种结果。Moreover, the presentopportunityis also sensitive, this yearis the lastyear of GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade)negotiations, toestablishWTO (World Trade Organization), aftermanyyears of wrangling, North AmericaandEuropevarious countriesfinallyreached the agreementin the majority ofprovisions, at present the United Statesmansionis being the Hollywoodmoviestriveswith the entityproductsame leveleconomic status. ButEuropevarious countriesproposed‚culturalexception’ the view, for this reason, someHollywoodfamousDirectoralsoraisedoneto separate the spatialcontroversywith the Europefilm-maker.
而且,眼下的时机也非常敏感,今年是关贸总协定谈判的最后一年,为了成立世界贸易组织,经过多年的扯皮,北美和欧洲各国终于在大部分条款上达成了共识,眼下美国正府正在为好莱坞电影争取与实体产品同等的经济地位。但欧洲各国却提出了‘文化例外’的论调,为此,好莱坞一些著名导演还与欧洲电影人掀起了一场隔空论战。By the Ericcurrentstandpoint, henaturallymuststandthis sideHollywood. Fordoes not provoke the Frenchmediamood. Aftersimplepreview ceremony, Erichas cancelled the dramatic teamin the majority ofpropagandaprogram of France, createdto sendnextstationMadridotherhosts, in any case«Jurassic Park»was highinEuropetopicenough, reducedsomepropaganda activities, notFrenchBox Officeeffecton«Jurassic Park»is too big.
以艾瑞克目前的立场,他当然是要站在好莱坞这一边。为了不撩拨法国媒体的情绪。简单的首映式过后,艾瑞克取消了剧组在法国的大部分宣传日程,将其他主创们都打发去了下一站西班牙马德里,反正《侏罗纪公园》在欧洲话题度已经足够高了,缩减一些宣传活动,并不会对《侏罗纪公园》的法国票房影响太大。Propagandizes the movieat the same time. Erichad not stoppedthrough the telephoneandChrisin secretdiscussed that Nokiamatter, Chrishas decidedto bring the team of Fireflyinvestmentto catch up withEuropepersonally, EricthentemporarilyremainedinParis.
宣传电影的同时。艾瑞克私下里也一直没有停止通过电话与克里斯商议诺基亚的事情,克里斯已经决定带着萤火虫投资的团队亲自赶来欧洲,艾瑞克便在巴黎暂时留了下来。To the mediaandculturalregarding the resistance of Hollywoodmovie, the Frenchfilmmaking and issuing companyactuallyto the investment and release of Hollywoodmovieis exceptionally earnest, the astutemerchantscould see that the decline of Frenchmoviewas irreversible, the capitalby the advantage the line, howFrenchFilm Studioknows certainly should the choices.
相对于媒体和文化届对于好莱坞电影的抗拒,法国本土的电影制作和发行公司却对好莱坞电影的投资和发行异常热切,精明的商人都看得出法国电影的没落已经不可逆转,资本逐利而行,法国电影公司当然知道该如何取舍。In the hotel of ParisSeinebank, Ericsitsin the hotelbalconyleisurely and carefree, on the sidesmallround tablein the coffee cupis fluttering the lightsteam, oftenis typing on the notebookkeyboard on knee, occasionallygains ground, Eiffel tower that not far awaytallSongruclouds.巴黎塞纳河畔的一家酒店里,艾瑞克悠闲地坐在酒店阳台上,身旁小圆桌上咖啡杯里飘着淡淡的热气,不时敲打着膝盖上的笔记本键盘,偶尔抬头,不远处正是高竦入云的埃菲尔铁塔。Heard the soundsound of door, Ericturns headto look atone, Alanheldonepack of materialsto walk.
听到房门的响动声,艾瑞克回头看了一眼,艾伦捧着一叠资料走了进来。„Eric, «Jurassic Park» and 《Germinal》firstdateBox Officenewscounted,”Alanplacedon the material in handEricround table, extractedoneto givehim.
“艾瑞克,《侏罗纪公园》和《萌芽》的首日票房消息都统计出来了,”艾伦将手中的资料放在艾瑞克身旁的圆桌上,从中抽出了一份递给他。Erictransferred the revolutionson the avenuelast nightby starlight, severalmovie theaters that passes throughhad the situation of partybuying a ticket, thereforehad expectedat heartthathas not been opening the material that Alanhands overanxiously, buttook out a floppy diskto giveAlanfrom the notebook: „Thisis a scriptcreativity that Ithought in the past few days, youfeed inLos Angeles, makingthemregistercopyright.”艾瑞克昨晚趁着夜色在大街上转了转,经过的几家电影院都出现了派对买票的情形,因此心里已经有所预料,并没有急着翻开艾伦递过来的资料,而是从笔记本电脑中取出了一张软盘递给艾伦:“这是我前些天想到的一个剧本创意,你传回洛杉矶,让他们注册一下版权。”
After script in floppy diskon that dayaccompaniedCarolynto visitBerlinMuseum Islandtogether, «Night at the Museum» that thinks, Ericon the usefreetime, probablyhad also knockedscriptfor these days.
软盘中的剧本正是那天陪同卡洛琳一起参观过柏林博物馆岛之后,想到的《博物馆奇妙夜》,这几天艾瑞克也就利用空闲的时间,将剧本大概敲了出来。Alanhad not askedthatreceives the floppy disk, introducedmaterial that justdelivered, extracts an invitationfrom the folder: „ThisisGaumont (Film) CompanyCEOMr.Nicolas Seydouxmakes the persondeliver, theymustbetonight a moviehold the reception party. To inviteyouto attend.”艾伦并没有多问,将软盘收好,介绍了一下刚刚送过来的资料,又从文件夹里抽出一张邀请函:“这是高蒙公司ceo尼古拉斯.赛杜先生让人送过来的,他们今晚要为一部电影举办庆祝酒会。想要邀请你出席。”Ericopens«Jurassic Park» and 《Germinal》Box Officedata, knit the browsslightly, speaks thoughtlesslyto ask: „Whatmovie?”艾瑞克翻开《侏罗纪公园》和《萌芽》的票房数据,微微皱了皱眉,随口问道:“什么电影?”„Movienamewas called《Fanfan》, Ijustlooked up. Is a lovemovie, in early Junescreens, acting the leading roleis the Frenchveryfamoustwomovie stars, Vincent. PerezandSophie Marceau, thismoviehave obtained very goodechoinEurope and Asianmarket.”Alanintroducedsimply. Has not mentioned the 《Fanfan》Box Officedata, after all, facing«Jurassic Park», Box Office of thislovemovieappearedsomewhatis nothing to speak.
“电影名字叫《芳芳》,我刚刚查了一下。是一部爱情电影,六月初上映,主演是法国很有名气的两位影星,文森特.佩雷斯和苏菲.玛索,这部电影在欧洲和亚洲市场都取得了很好的反响。”艾伦简单地介绍了一下。并没有说起《芳芳》的票房数据,毕竟,面对《侏罗纪公园》,这部爱情电影的票房就显得有些不值一提了。In the Ericforeheadsis bringing a helplessnessas before, hears the introduction of Alan, wantsnot to thinkthatrelies on the memoryto askvery muchat will: „Sophie Marceauin the pasttoleaveGaumont (Film) Companyhas compensated a 1 millionfrancpenalty, both sidesdid not get into a deadlock, howto cooperate?”艾瑞克眉宇间依旧带着一丝无奈,听到艾伦的介绍,想也没有想,凭借着记忆很随意地问道:“苏菲.玛索当年为了离开高蒙公司赔了100万法郎的违约金,双方不是闹僵了吗,怎么又合作了?”Alanactuallydoes not knowthismatter, the Sophie MarceauinfluencemoreinFranceandFar East. Hollywoodhas not notedthisFrenchrose: „ThismatterIam not clear, can Eric, look up?”艾伦却并不知道这件事,苏菲.玛索的影响力更多地在法国和远东。好莱坞还没有注意到这位法兰西玫瑰:“这件事我就不清楚了,艾瑞克,要去查一下吗?”Erichas gawkedstaring, respondedthatshook the head saying: „Does not use, Isuddenlythink ofthismatter.”艾瑞克愣了愣,才反应过来,摇头道:“不用,我只是突然想到这件事而已。”Sophie Marceaufor the past events that shootsŻuławskithat«Mad Love»andGaumont (Film) Companybreak offnoisily, the majority oftimesappearin the magazinereportarticle of thisstar, in the final analysis, buttobeautify the image of thisstar, the ingredient of propagandaare more. And.

Everybodyseparates from each othertemporarilytakesvariousgroupsrespectively, does not existnot to pass away the intercoursepossibility. Saidis more realistic, now the Europemoviedeclinein this way, canbe capable ofmanufacturing the company of commercialmovieto be few, the choice of thisFrenchroseare not many.苏菲.玛索为了拍摄祖拉斯基那部《狂野的爱》与高蒙公司闹掰的往事,大部分时候都出现在这位女星的杂志通稿文章中,说到底,只是为了美化这位女星的形象,宣传的成分更多一些。而且。一百万法郎换算之后也就不到20万美元而已,对于一位欧洲知名女星来说,也并不算太大的经济负担,苏菲.玛索与高蒙电影公司或许更多只是一时谈不拢。大家暂时分道扬镳各走各路,也不存在老死不相往来的可能。说的现实一些,现在欧洲电影衰落如斯,能够有能力制作商业电影的公司寥寥无几,这位法兰西玫瑰的选择也不多。„That,”Alanhas referred to the invitation: „Tonight'scocktail party?”
“那,”艾伦指了指邀请函:“今晚的酒会?”Ericshook the head. Hedoes not know that so-calledcelebrationpartyisanysituation, becausethese days the Frenchmediaalreadyhave hyped《Germinal》 and situation of «Jurassic Park»resistance, ifthere is a mediaattendance, definitelywill be asked«Jurassic Park» and 《Germinal》Box Officeissue, sighed, Ericlooked atdata in a hand, the «Jurassic Park»Francefirstdate6600,000francs, screenedscalesuitable《Germinal》Box Officewith«Jurassic Park», only thenover1 million, when the time comesherepliedin any eventthatit is estimated thatwill be fried the spark.艾瑞克摇了摇头。他并不知道所谓的庆祝派对到底是什么情形,因为这段时间法国媒体已经将《萌芽》和《侏罗纪公园》对抗的形势炒作了出来,要是有媒体出席的话,肯定会被问道《侏罗纪公园》和《萌芽》的票房问题,叹了口气,艾瑞克又看了一眼手中的数据,《侏罗纪公园》法国首日660万法郎,与《侏罗纪公园》上映规模相当的《萌芽》票房只有100万出头,到时候他无论如何回答,估计都会被炒出火花来。Alan can also realize that someworries of Eric, said: „Sincethis, Iwill telephoneto reject the opposite party . Moreover, Mr.Hansson about 10 : 00 am arrived atParis, the hotel room I have been scheduled, Eric, othermustsupplement?”艾伦也能够体会到艾瑞克的一些顾虑,道:“既然这样,我会打电话拒绝对方的,另外,汉森先生明天上午十点左右到巴黎,酒店房间我已经预定下了,艾瑞克,还有其他要补充的吗?”„Did not have, this.”
“没有了,就这样吧。”Alannodded, turns aroundto leave the Ericroom, justarrived at the corridor, the mobile phone of Alanwaisthas then made a sound, the connectionsaidseveral, Alanonce morehas shoved open the Ericdoor, arrived atsideEric the mobile phoneto hand over: „Eric, telephone of Mr.Jack Valenti.”艾伦点了点头,转身离开了艾瑞克的房间,刚刚来到走廊,艾伦腰间的移动电话便响了起来,接通说了几句,艾伦又再次推开了艾瑞克的房门,来到艾瑞克身边将移动电话递了过来:“艾瑞克,杰克.瓦伦蒂先生的电话。”Jack Valenti?杰克.瓦伦蒂?SomeEricdoubts, Jack ValentiwasMPAA (Motion Picture Association of America)Chairman, Erichas only seenopposite partyonetimeatlast yearfilm societyannual meeting, howhissomewhatdoubtsJack Valentiwill project onhishere the telephone.艾瑞克有些疑惑,杰克.瓦伦蒂是美国电影协会的主席,艾瑞克只在去年的电影协会年会上见过对方一次,他有些疑惑杰克.瓦伦蒂怎么会将电话打到他这里。However, Jack Valentihas held the post ofMPAA (Motion Picture Association of America)Chairmansince1966, stayedinthispositionnear30year, at presentseemingly must continueto do, film societyChairman that thispoliticiancomeshas always been making efforts to the Hollywoodmoviedomainexpansionaround the world, thereforeveneratesin the Hollywoodstatus, Erichas not neglected, took the mobile phone that Alanhas handed overquickly, theychattedseveralsimply, thenhas made the telephone call.
不过,杰克.瓦伦蒂从1966年开始就一直担任美国电影协会的主席,已经在这个职位上呆了将近三十年时间,眼下貌似还要继续干下去,这位政客出身的电影协会主席一直致力于好莱坞电影版图在世界范围内的扩张,因此在好莱坞的地位还是非常尊崇,艾瑞克也没有怠慢,很快接过了艾伦递过来的移动电话,两人简单地聊了几句,便挂了电话。Alanfaintlyhears the sound that in the microphonespreadsto be somewhat rapid, not the clearcontent, after Erichas actually made the telephone call, saidtoAlan: „Prepares, in the eveningIwill participate inGaumont Film Companyam the reception party that 《Fanfan》holds.”艾伦只是隐隐听到话筒里传出的声音有些急促,却并不清楚内容,艾瑞克挂了电话之后,就对艾伦道:“准备一下吧,晚上我会去参加高蒙电影公司为《芳芳》举办的庆祝酒会。”Notes the Ericseriousappearance, Alanasks: „Canseperatelyprepareformal clothesforyou?”
注意到艾瑞克郑重的模样,艾伦问道:“要另外为你准备礼服吗?”„Does not use, thatsets that inpreview ceremonyputs onwas OK.”Ericmobile phonewill give back toAlan, is pondering at heart still over the reason that Jack Valentiis presenting, GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) that judging from the present situation, Ericexpects the opposite party should fornegotiated.
“不用,首映式上穿的那套就可以了。”艾瑞克将移动电话还给艾伦,心里还在琢磨着杰克.瓦伦蒂出现的原因,以目前的形势来看,艾瑞克料想对方应该是为了正在谈判的关贸总协定。MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) is not only the graduationresponsible organization of Hollywoodmovie, is the spokesman of Hollywoodbenefit, the negotiations of GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade)aboutmovie, definitelyisactsbyMPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), althoughthesealsoinvolve the Fireflybenefit, Ericactuallycannot find outJack Valentito relateownreason.美国电影协会既是好莱坞电影的分级负责机构,同时也是好莱坞利益的代言人,关贸总协定关于电影方面的谈判,肯定是由美国电影协会出面,虽然这其中也牵扯到萤火虫的利益,艾瑞克却想不出杰克.瓦伦蒂联系自己的原因。
......
……Under the curtain of night, luxuriouscar of hoteldrives into the Pariswestern suburbsSeinebankinslowly a mansion, Ericjustgot out, saw that onegroup of peoplewelcomedwarmly.
夜幕下,酒店的豪华轿车缓缓驶入巴黎西郊塞纳河畔的一处大宅内,艾瑞克刚刚下车,就看到一群人热情地迎了上来。Sees the firsteyes of thesepeople, Ericrealizedthatthistimereception partyis unusual, the Gaumont Film CompanyNicolas Seydouxanythingaccident, Jack Valentihad not greetedin advance, but, justhad seenlast weekGermanConstantin FilmChairmanisanymatter, otherfaces of looking familiar.
看到这些人的第一眼,艾瑞克就意识到,这次的庆祝酒会非同寻常,高蒙电影公司的尼古拉斯.赛杜没什么意外,杰克.瓦伦蒂也是事前打过招呼的,不过,上个星期刚刚见过的德国康斯坦丁影业总裁是什么回事,还有其他一些面熟的脸孔。„Eric, was very happy that youcancome,”Nicolas SeydouxwarmlyhuggedwithEric, then11introduced that otherpeoplegive the Ericunderstanding.
“艾瑞克,很高兴你能过来,”尼古拉斯.赛杜率先热情地与艾瑞克拥抱了下,然后才11介绍其他人给艾瑞克认识。Constantin FilmChairmanwas needless saying that in additionalsohadCEO of GermanNewWorldFilm IndustryCorporation, FrenchfourthTV StationChairman, the heads of Vivendi SAmoviedepartment......康斯坦丁影业总裁不用说,此外还有德国新世界影业公司的ceo,法国第四电视台的总裁,维旺迪集团电影部门的负责人……Those whomakeEricaccidentalis, appearsincludingMetro Goldwyn MayerFilm IndustryChairmanJohn Calleyhere, but the Metro Goldwyn MayerFilm IndustrycurrentactualmasterisFrenchCrédit Lyonnais S.A..
更让艾瑞克意外的是,连米高梅影业的总裁约翰.卡利都出现在这里,而米高梅影业目前的实际控制者是法国里昂信贷银行。Generally speaking, thesepeoplebasicallyareEuropecountgiven name the heads of Film Studio, introducedfinally, Eric can only hold the thoughts of being ready to cope with anythingto treat with courtesycalmlyfirst.
总的来说,这些人基本上都是欧洲数得上名号的电影公司的负责人,介绍到最后,艾瑞克只能抱着兵来将挡的心思不动声色地先应酬着。„Was good, the waiters, givemeandsomekidtime,”and otherNicolas SeydouxintroducedthatJack Valenti the opening the mouthclear and resonant voice said that the peopleecho, Jack Valentisignaled with the eyestowardEric, theyenterin the villa in mansion, across the in twos and threesguestcrowd, arrived in an anteroomunder the influence ofwaiter.
“好了,伙计们,给我和小家伙一些时间吧,”等尼古拉斯.赛杜介绍完,杰克.瓦伦蒂才开口朗声说道,众人纷纷附和,杰克.瓦伦蒂朝艾瑞克使了个眼神,两人一路走进大宅的别墅内,穿过三三两两的宾客人群,在侍者的引领下来到了一间套房里。„Thinks that youcertainlyvery muchdo have doubtsnow?”Jack ValentimakesEricsit downon the sofa, askedwith a face all smiles.
“想必你现在一定很疑惑吧?”杰克.瓦伦蒂让艾瑞克在沙发上坐下,笑容满面地问道。At presentthishairgraylysharp-eyedold manis the Hollywoodbenefitmost solidspokesman, Ericnoddedwithout the least concealment, althoughhas realizedanything, butEric was actually not worried that the opposite partywill maketo the Firefly Picturesdisadvantageousmatter, otherwiseJack Valentiis impossibleto sit quietlyMPAA (Motion Picture Association of America)Chairmanposition for dozensyears.( To be continued.)
眼前这个头发花白目光锐利地老头子是好莱坞利益最坚实的代言人,艾瑞克毫不隐瞒地点了点头,虽然已经意识到了一些什么,不过艾瑞克却也不担心对方会做出对萤火虫影业不利的事情,否则杰克.瓦伦蒂也不可能稳坐美国电影协会主席位置几十年时间。(未完待续。)
