Eric and Buffett go out of the study room time, the time is around 12 : 00 am, although after many guests wants and other Eric and Buffett comes once more, inquire the news, but party finished, these people have to leave disappointedly. 艾瑞克与巴菲特走出书房的时候,时间已经是凌晨12点多,虽然很多客人都想要等艾瑞克与巴菲特再次现身后打探一下消息,不过派对结束,这些人也不得不失望地离开。 At this time in the villa is cleaning up the staff besides party Corporation, only the remaining Firefly main management as well as do not know that hides where went to women. 此时别墅里除了派对公司正在清理现场的工作人员外,就只剩下萤火虫的主要高管以及不知道躲到哪里去了的女人们。 Eric and Buffett just went down the staircase, chatted Jeffrey and the others who to welcome in living room 艾瑞克与巴菲特刚刚走下楼梯,在起居室里聊天的杰弗里等人就迎了上来 Leaning of imperial concubine crossing over. Although in the heart wants to know the result immediately, but the people very much politeness first delivers Buffett to leave. 穿越之侧妃。虽然心中非常想要立刻知道结果,但众人还是很礼貌地先送巴菲特离开。 Waits for the Buffett private car to leave the manor, Eric shrugs toward people who shows the inquiry expression immediately: „Buffett has to sell the intention of ABC, but we difference in the price are very big.” 等巴菲特的座驾离开庄园,艾瑞克朝立刻露出询问表情的一众人耸耸肩:“巴菲特有出售abc的意向,不过我们在价格上分歧很大。” These words said that the people have not revealed any disappointedly, naturally sells the intention of ABC not to feel any excitement regarding Buffett, related to counts the big transaction of 10 billion USD, if an evening came to an arrangement, that was a strange matter. 这句话说完,众人都没有露出任何失望的,当然对于巴菲特出售abc的意向也没有感到什么兴奋,涉及到数百亿美元的大交易,如果一晚上就谈妥,那才是一件奇怪的事情。 Eric told that other management leave first, only leaves behind Michael Lynn, Jeffrey, Katzenberg as well as Frank Wells this Firefly Pictures four giants, five people come to the living room that the people chatted a moment ago to sit down, Eric saw that changed the evening dress to put on Drew of T-shirt shorts to look around toward the living room, told: „We must chat a while, you rest first.” 艾瑞克吩咐其他高管先离开,只留下迈克尔.林恩、杰弗里、卡森伯格以及弗兰克.威尔斯这萤火虫影业四巨头,五个人来到众人刚才聊天的起居室里坐下,艾瑞克看到已经换下了晚礼服穿着t恤短裤的德鲁朝起居室里探头探脑,吩咐道:“我们还要聊一会儿,你们先去休息吧。” Although in English you(你) and you(你们) are the same word, but the expressions of other four people instantaneously become some Ai younger sisters, they know what Eric this ‚you’ refers to is you, but is not you, therefore links quite pure in heart Jeffrey somewhat to envy the good fortune in romance of Eric. 虽然英语中你和你们是同一个词,但其他四个人的表情都瞬间变得有些暧妹,他们都知道艾瑞克这个‘you’指的是你们而不是你,因此连一项比较清心寡欲的杰弗里都不由地有些羡慕艾瑞克的艳福。 Drew nods cleverly: „Good, you want coffee, do I make Natasha make?” 德鲁乖巧地点头:“好啊,你们要咖啡吗,我让娜塔莎去弄？” Although many people can note the Russia twin's form that shuttles back and forth in the villa tonight, but Eric does not want to draw on to stimulate four big masters this to the sisters at this time again. Has referred to the coffeemaker in living room corner: „Was so late, does not want any matter to make them do, you come.” 虽然今晚很多人都能够注意到在别墅里穿梭的俄罗斯双胞胎的身影,但艾瑞克此时可不想再把这对姐妹招来刺激身边四个大老爷们。指了指起居室角落里的咖啡机:“这么晚了,不要什么事情都让她们来做,你自己来。” Drew made faces toward Eric. Very much was actually obedient to arrive by coffeemaker to bustle about. 德鲁朝艾瑞克做了个鬼脸。却还是很听话地走到咖啡机旁忙碌了起来。 While neutral who small girl makes the coffee, Eric him and Buffett talk result to four people briefly. 趁着小妮子煮咖啡的空挡,艾瑞克将他与巴菲特的谈话结果向身旁四人简单地说了一遍。 „...... Approximately is this. I have also given the Firefly purchase plan, then,” the Eric booth lets go: „Is anything has not come to an arrangement.” “……大致就是这样。我也给出了萤火虫的收购方案,然后,”艾瑞克摊摊手:“算是什么都没有谈妥。” Although understands that cash purchase the plan has not worked, Eric proposed had drawn up the good capitalization purchase plan, is similar to Eric hears the response of Buffett that plan to be the same, Buffett first rejected. Although two people are clear, the respective purchase plan is not the bottom line of both sides, but everyone impossible to make in the situation of first unofficial contact any makes concessions. 虽然明白现金收购的方案已经行不通,艾瑞克还是提出了原本就已经拟定好的全资收购方案,就如同艾瑞克听到巴菲特那份方案的反应一样,巴菲特第一时间就拒绝了。虽然两个人心里都非常清楚,各自的收购方案都不是双方的底线,但谁也不可能在第一次非正式接触的情况下就做出任何退让。 Simply speaking. Tonight Eric and Buffett respective only harvest, had determined both sides have to carry out this transaction the intention, perhaps therefore, the long crosscut saw just started. 简单来说。今晚艾瑞克和巴菲特各自唯一的收获,就是确定了双方都有进行这笔交易的意向,因此,漫长的拉锯或许才刚刚开始。 Eric said that the five people in living room short silent, digests the information that Eric was just disclosing respectively. 艾瑞克说完,起居室的五个人都短暂地沉默了下来,各自消化着艾瑞克刚刚透露的信息。 Drew made the coffee, placed on several coffee tea tables before several individual softly separately, collected to kiss on the Eric cheeks, cautiously covered the door to leave the living room. 德鲁煮好了咖啡,轻手轻脚地将几杯咖啡分别放在几个人身前的茶几上,凑过来在艾瑞克脸颊上亲了下,才小心翼翼地掩上房门离开了起居室。 After a while, Katzenberg first said: „Eric. I thought that these biggest problem, is Buffett does not approve the Firefly actual market value, this is not strange. Although our last year profits were equally matched with Time Warner, but main profit actually from movie and derivation peripheral, but most people know that fluctuating of Film Industry service is big. But Buffett for discrete conservatively is always famous in investment, therefore his viewpoint cannot represent all people, I thought that if wants in this transaction not to drop the wind again, we must first do no longer maintains the consistent low key, shows the Firefly strength to the media suitably.” 过了一会儿,卡森伯格首先说道:“艾瑞克。我觉得这其中最大的问题,就是巴菲特不认可萤火虫的实际市值,这并不奇怪。虽然我们去年的利润已经与时代华纳不相上下,但主要利润却是来自电影及其衍生周边,而大部分人都知道电影业务的起伏非常大。但巴菲特在投资方面向来以谨慎保守著称,所以他的观点并不能代表所有人,我觉得如果想要再这笔交易中不落下风的话,我们首先要做的就是不再保持一贯的低调,适当地向媒体展示一下萤火虫的实力是必须的。” Katzenberg said that other three people echo nod, Frank Wells has not forgotten to add: „Eric. I think that you must attain «Forbes» magazine that ranking first place this year the position, moreover must like several years ago Sam Walton. Casts off second by far.” 卡森伯格说完,其他三个人都附和地点头,弗兰克.威尔斯还不忘补充道:“艾瑞克。我认为你今年必须要拿到《福布斯》杂志那个排行榜榜首的位置,而且还要像几年前的山姆.沃尔顿那样。把第二名远远甩开。” The Walmart chain store in 1992 passed away the beforehand market value to achieve more than 40 billion USD in Sam Walton, Walton Family has Walmart to exceed 40% stocks. Before 1992, Sam Walton was in the «Forbes» North America 400 rich and powerful people lists only wealth accumulation surpasses 10 billion USD rich and powerful people. 沃尔玛连锁店在山姆.沃尔顿1992年去世之前的市值已经达到400多亿美元,沃尔顿家族拥有沃尔玛超过40%的股份。在1992年之前,山姆.沃尔顿是《福布斯》北美400富豪榜上唯一一个财富累积超过100亿美元的富豪。 After Sam Walton passed away, the family wealth was divided equally in his wife and four children hands, because adopted the reasonable method to dodge the massive inheritance tax, Walton Family as before was the North America richest family 山姆.沃尔顿去世之后,家族财富被平分到了他妻子和四个子女手中,但因为采取了合理的手段规避了大量的遗产税,沃尔顿家族依旧是北美最富有的家族 Starting out insincerely but ending up seriously. After Sam Walton passed away, because driving making concessions of Eric, at the beginning of this year ‚succeeding’ the richest family Buffett individual wealth is only 9 300 million USD. 假戏真做。在山姆.沃尔顿去世之后,因为艾瑞克的主动退让,今年年初‘继任’的首富巴菲特个人财富只有93亿美元。 Even if no Frank Wells this excuse, Eric is also very clear, he is avoids this position to continue this year very much difficultly again free and unrestrained, when his ‚invisible richest family’. 即使没有弗兰克.威尔斯这番说辞,艾瑞克也很清楚,他今年是很难再避开这个位置继续逍遥自在地当他的‘隐形首富’了。 Last year the digit in «Forbes» list can also dodge reasonably with some reasons, but this year, the Box Office result that not only «Jurassic Park» global broke the record was Firefly Pictures has brought bigger attention, but also Firefly purchases the ABC TV Network news definitely also to need in the near future to disclose to the public that will also let the massive investment institution positive analysis Firefly Pictures strength to the attention that both sides traded, in this case, «Forbes» issued again was similar to last year digit, will bring in the innumerable questions absolutely, seriously deviated the fact the data regarding a credibility attack of family/home specialized finance and economics magazine is very big.. Eric knows, these advantage that oneself give are absolutely impossible to make Steve Forbes take risk with the future of family firm again. 去年《福布斯》榜单上的数字还可以用一些理由合理地搪塞过去,但今年,不但《侏罗纪公园》全球破纪录的票房成绩为萤火虫影业带来了更大的关注度,而且萤火虫收购abc电视网的消息肯定也需要在近期对公众披露,对双方交易的关注也会让大量投资机构主动分析萤火虫影业的实力,这种情况下,《福布斯》再发布一个类似于去年的数字,绝对会引来无数质疑,严重偏离事实的数据对于一家专业性财经杂志的公信力打击是非常大。的。艾瑞克知道,自己给的那些好处绝对不可能再让史提夫.福布斯用家族企业的前途去冒险。 „Good, although I have not been ready, but this matter I will find time to chat with Steve Forbes personally.” “好吧,虽然我还没有做好准备,但这件事我会抽空亲自与史提夫.福布斯聊聊。” Jeffrey cannot understand why Eric can avoid this matter, said with a smile: „Eric, I thought that this is a good deed, why really will unable to think through you to have these at sixes and sevens scruples, feared that sleep will wake up others to rob your money?” 杰弗里一直都不能理解艾瑞克为什么会可以避开这件事,笑道:“艾瑞克,我还是觉得这是一件好事,真是想不通你为什么会产生那些乱七八糟的顾忌,难道还怕一觉醒来别人会把你的钱抢走吗？” Eric shrugs reluctantly, had not replied. Another three people have smiled. 艾瑞克无奈地耸耸肩,没有回答。另外三人都笑了起来。 „Ok, do not tease me, we continue the subject.” Eric and other people have smiled a while, waved to say. “ok,不要调侃我了,我们继续正题吧。”艾瑞克等几个人笑了一会儿,挥了挥手说道。 Michael Lynn asked at this time: „Eric. Buffett leaves, had said that he will keep Los Angeles?” 迈克尔.林恩这时问道:“艾瑞克。巴菲特离开的时候,说过他会留在洛杉矶吗？” Eric shakes the head saying: „I had not asked that but immediately was Thanksgiving, I think that Buffett should hurry back to Omaha Thanksgiving?” 艾瑞克摇头道:“我没有问,只不过马上就是感恩节了,我想巴菲特应该会赶回奥马哈过感恩节吧？” Katzenberg said: „Buffett wife Susan these years lived in California recently, because Buffett does not think that own wealth was divided, although two people live apart, but has not divorced, heard that the relations are very as before good, I think that Buffett should keep Los Angeles Thanksgiving.” 卡森伯格道:“巴菲特的妻子苏珊最近这些年都住在加州,因为巴菲特不想自己的财富被分割,两个人虽然分居但并没有离婚,听说关系依旧很不错,我认为巴菲特应该会留在洛杉矶过感恩节。” Eric said: „Buffett keeps Los Angeles. You know that I must go to New York, moreover before Christmas day, I may not come back, therefore then can only come to contact with Buffett by you.” 艾瑞克说道:“就算巴菲特留在洛杉矶。你们知道,我也要去纽约的,而且圣诞节前我都不一定会回来,所以接下来只能由你们来跟巴菲特接触了。” Eric had two children's matters regarding present is not the secret, Jeffrey also personally goes to Long Island to visit two kids. Therefore goes to New York the decision of Thanksgiving not to be regarding Eric surprised. 艾瑞克已经有了两个孩子的事情对于在座的都不是什么秘密,杰弗里还亲自去长岛探望过两个小家伙。因此对于艾瑞克去纽约过感恩节的决定也不感到意外。 Beside Boss that except that Eric this can be lazy, because of the end of the year relations, Michael Lynn and the others may a point unable to idle, they not only need momentarily follow up at the end of the year the movie distribution of this important running schedule, but also needs to carry on the audit and summary to past one year of Firefly finance, human affairs and other work, these matters started from early November actually. Because Firefly the huge system, all matters can complete before the Christmas day day after day were good. 除了艾瑞克这个可以偷懒的老板之外,因为年底的关系,迈克尔.林恩等人可一点都闲不下来,他们不但要随时跟进年底这种重要档期的电影发行工作,还需要对过去一年萤火虫的财务、人事等工作进行审计和总结,这些事情其实从十一月初就已经开始了。但因为萤火虫日渐庞大的体系,所有事情能够在圣诞节前完成就已经不错了。 Considered that these situations, Michael Lynn said: „If in this case. In contacts in private cannot discuss in the situation of gathering together, we at least must wait by January of next year, suitably initiates the public purchase to invite, I suggested that the time retards to two as far as possible in March, facilitates us to make more preliminary layouts like this.” 考虑到这些情况,迈克尔.林恩说道:“如果这样的话。在私下接触不能谈拢的情况下,我们至少也要等到明年一月份,才适合发起公开的收购邀约,我建议时间尽量推后到二三月份,这样方便我们做出更多的前期布局。” The time is getting more and more late, although Eric and Katzenberg these two young adults as before are energetic, but the Jeffrey three people have revealed the weary condition, although many details have not discussed the feature, Eric did not plan that made three cross 50-year-old old man to continue to boil. Finally said: „That this, how your here can consult mutually should carry on the propaganda of high-sounding talk. Has any matter to telephone or send the email to me,” Eric was saying. Stands up saying: „Was very late, is inferior to live tonight, I lead you to go to the guest room.” 时间越来越晚,虽然艾瑞克、卡森伯格这两个青壮年都依旧精神十足,但杰弗里三人都已经露出了疲态,虽然很多细节还没有商议出眉目,艾瑞克也不打算让三个已经过了50岁的老头子继续熬下去。最后说道:“那就这样吧,你们这边可以相互协商该如何进行高调的舆论宣传。有什么事情可以打电话或者发送电子邮件给我,”艾瑞克说着。站起身道:“已经很晚了,不如今晚就住下来,我带你们去客房。” „Does not use,” Michael Lynn sets out immediately, he does not want to stay makes the super big light bulb here: „I near Pepperdine University on the villa, am not far from here.” “不用了,”迈克尔.林恩立刻起身,他可不想呆在这里做超级大灯泡:“我在佩珀代因大学附近就栋别墅,离这里不远。” Katzenberg has referred to the north side, said with a smile: „My near, at the foot of the hill.” 卡森伯格指了指北边,笑道:“我的更近,就在山脚下。” Frank Wells said with a smile similarly: „ My family lived in Malibu 弗兰克.威尔斯同样微笑道:“我家本来就住在马里布 After putting on to liberate. ” 穿回解放后。” Eric looks to Jeffrey, Jeffrey beckons with the hand hastily: „I think that Michael will definitely not refuse me to go to his home to stay overnight in somebody's home a evening.” 艾瑞克看向杰弗里,杰弗里连忙摆手:“我想迈克尔肯定不会拒绝我去他家借宿一晚的。” „Naturally,” Michael Lynn nods with a smile: „I had recently bought a number of good red wines, Jeffrey, Frank, or do you also together taste?” “当然,”迈克尔.林恩笑着点头:“我最近又买了一批不错的红酒,杰弗瑞,弗兰克,要不你们也一起来尝尝？” „consider as finished, was too late today, I will go,” Katzenberg shook the head. “算了,今天太晚了,有空我会去的,”卡森伯格摇了摇头。 „I am not good, my wife 11 o'clock have called to ask why I do not go home,” Frank Wells said that caused several people of chuckles and teasing on the scene. “我也不行,我妻子11点钟就已经打电话问我为什么不回家了,”弗兰克.威尔斯如是说道,引起在场几人的轻笑和调侃。 If compared with Eric, Firefly these four big giants is not the rich and powerful people social stratum, does not surprise people in the place purchase real estate that Malibu this rich person huddles together. Eric also no longer detains, 11 sends off people, returns to the villa. 如果不与艾瑞克相比的话,萤火虫这四大巨头都属于富豪阶层,在马里布这种富人扎堆的地方购买房产并不让人意外。艾瑞克也不再挽留,将众人11送走,返回别墅。 The furniture stage prop on party moved out by party Corporation, in villa spacious hall quiet, Eric stands in the business hall looks up the ring-like corridors of two buildings, the door that looks at leaves of shutting tightly, has remembered that famous lines in «Forrest Gump» inexplicably, the corners of the mouth cannot bear bring back wipes badly smiles. 派对上的桌椅道具都已经被派对公司搬走,别墅空旷的大厅里静悄悄的,艾瑞克站在大厅中央抬头望了望二楼的环形走廊,看着一扇扇紧闭的房门,莫名地想起了《阿甘正传》里的那句著名台词,嘴角忍不住勾起一抹坏笑。 Life like one box of chocolate. 人生就像一盒巧克力啊。 ...... …… Waking up time Eric discovered one lie down on the floor, although he does not have the custom of carpet, but the lignin floor does not make people not feel comfortably, opens in the bedroom of air conditioning is very warm, the body has not covered anything not to have the cool feeling. 醒来的时候艾瑞克发现自己躺在地板上,虽然他没有铺地毯的习惯,但木质地板也并不让人感觉不舒服,开着空调的卧室里也很暖和,身上没有盖任何东西都不会产生凉意。 Somewhat could not feel existence of own right arm, Eric narrows the eye to turn head, saw that Famke Janssen rests the head on comfortably above, is resting fragrantly, it is estimated that is pillow long of too, thorough was stiff. 有些感觉不到自己右臂的存在,艾瑞克眯着眼睛扭过头,看到法米克.詹森舒服地枕在上面,正睡得香甜,估计是枕的太久,已经彻底僵了。 Eric looks at the watch that had not taken down last night, 11 : 30, cannot bear smile, for a long time such has not deliberately created trouble. 艾瑞克看了看昨晚没有取下的手表,11点半,忍不住笑了笑,好久都没这么胡闹过了。 Extended the left hand that can also move to try to find out cautiously, had found pink night clothes, it is estimated that was small girl, last night the women wore the evening dress, except for Drew, other people was in the villa to be possible not to have own wardrobe. Eric single-handed its pack, because is the reason of fall and winter funds, is very thick, therefore carefully lifts the right hand to want the night clothes pad under the Famke Janssen head. 小心翼翼地伸出还能活动的左手四下摸索了一番,找到了一条粉色的睡衣,估计是小妮子的,昨晚女人们都穿着晚礼服来的,除了德鲁,其他人在别墅里可都没有自己的衣橱。艾瑞克单手将其叠起来,因为是秋冬款的缘故,很厚实,于是就小心地抬起右手想要将睡衣垫在法米克.詹森脑袋下。 Perhaps was rests fully, although Eric was careful, Famke Janssen quickly woke, saw that the Eric left hand was lifting an appearance of pink clothing, the girl has smiled, put out a hand to pat: „Discards quickly, you look like dreadful.” 或许是睡足了,艾瑞克虽然非常小心,法米克.詹森还是很快醒了过来,看到艾瑞克左手举着一件粉色衣物的模样,女郎笑了下,伸手就拍过来:“快丢掉,你看起来好猥琐。” Eric threw the night clothes in side, Famke Janssen has actually depended, recalled last night matter, the girl gained ground, just saw that a small hand found out the sides of the bed, although does not know that was whose, Famke Janssen without hesitation has nipped in the Eric shoulder, in the man depressing painful call, the girl some were not cruel enough to loosen the tooth quickly, said in a low voice: „Eric, you were getting more and more absurd, I warned you, gave up any idea of that has again next time.” 艾瑞克将睡衣丢在旁边,法米克.詹森却已经靠了过来,回忆起昨晚的事情,女郎抬起头,刚好看到一只小手探出床沿,虽然不知道是谁的,法米克.詹森还是毫不犹豫地在艾瑞克肩头咬了下去,在男人压抑的痛呼声中,女郎很快又有些不忍心地松开了牙齿,低声道:“艾瑞克,你越来越荒唐了,我警告你,休想再有下次。” Eric replied with a smile: „Good, I ensure you are hungry, west we play the host eat, does not lead them.” 艾瑞克笑着回答道:“好吧,我保证,你饿不饿,我们下去做东西吃,不带她们。” Famke Janssen holds in the arms the waist of Eric, said in a soft voice: „I want you to come to me to do to eat personally.” 法米克.詹森搂住艾瑞克的腰,轻声道:“我要你亲自来给我做吃的。” „Does not have the issue, you have eaten good me.” “没问题,你把我吃了都行。” „Your this bastard, I wants to eat you.” “你这个混蛋,我真想把你吃了呢。” They set out together cautiously, Famke Janssen arrives by the wardrobe, must look for the Eric clothes to put on as usual, notes the Eric look often to look to the women on bed, having a small jealousy to tease: „Or I get down, do you remain?” 两人一起小心翼翼地起身,法米克.詹森走到衣橱旁,照例要找艾瑞克的衣服穿,注意到艾瑞克眼神不时望向大床上的女人们,带着点小醋意地调侃道:“要不我一个人下去,你留下来？” „No, but, has been short of one probably?” “不,只是,好像少了一个？” Famke Janssen puts on Eric jeans, looks to the bed, numbers in the past, said: „Possibly has Nicole gotten out of bed?” 法米克.詹森套上艾瑞克的一条牛仔裤,也望向大床,一个个数过去,才说道:“可能妮可已经起床了吧？” The voice just fell, bed other one side resounds the Nicole mumbling sound: „Was uncomfortable, hateful, who kicked me.”( To be continued.) 话音刚落,大床的另外一边就响起妮可的嘟囔声:“难受死了,可恶,谁把我踢下来的。”(未完待续。)
