Chapter 587 第587章 Elizabeth and Julia carry breakfast to walk together from the villa, arrives by the round table, just saw appearance that Eric knits the brows slightly. 伊丽莎白和茱莉亚一起端着早餐从别墅里走出来,来到圆桌旁,刚好看到艾瑞克微微皱眉的模样。 Places Eric a breakfast on hand, Elizabeth asked in a soft voice: „How?” 将一份早餐放在艾瑞克手边,伊丽莎白轻声问道:“怎么了？” Eric presses newspaper under notebook sets aside the position, carried the tepid the milk to drink one, said: „ That side New York, acquisition negotiation small condition. „ 艾瑞克将报纸压在笔记本电脑下面腾出位置,端起温热的牛奶喝了一口,说道:“纽约那边的,收购谈判出了点小状况。“ Elizabeth low Oh, related to the acquisition negotiation of ABC TV Network, she knows that he should not continue to ask again, although Elizabeth does not have other any thoughts at heart, even if from the Eric mouth knows that anything will not speak irresponsibly absolutely everywhere, but she is very clear family/home old man to wish one could Eric to purchase another three TV Network plan completely Huang Diao, such Firefly TV Department very much likely greatly continues to cooperate with Fox TV Network, therefore Elizabeth thought that this avoiding suspicion is very necessary. 伊丽莎白低低哦了一声,涉及到ab电视网的收购谈判,她知道自己不应该再继续问下去,虽然伊丽莎白心里没有什么其他心思,即使从艾瑞克嘴里知道些什么也绝对不会到处乱说,但她却很清楚自己家老头子恨不得艾瑞克收购另外三家电视网的计划全部黄掉,这样萤火虫电视部门就很大可能继续与福克斯电视网合作,因此伊丽莎白觉得这种避嫌是很有必要的。 However, Julia actually does not know that the Elizabeth thoughts, she does not have this scruples, sits down side Eric, asked curiously: „What condition had?” 不过,茱莉亚却并不知道伊丽莎白的心思,她也没有这种顾忌,在艾瑞克身边坐下,好奇地问道:“发生了什么状况？” „The ABC aspect was worried that merges the debt of later Firefly high to aggravate the burden of company, requesting Firefly to reduce the bond issuance proportion, through way collection purchase fund of listing.” “ab方面担心并购之后萤火虫的负债过高会加重公司的负担,要求萤火虫减少债券发行比例,通过上市的方式筹集收购资金。” Elizabeth slightly raised the eyebrow that listens attentively to peacefully, although does not know the detailed takeover plan of Firefly, but she is also clear, if Firefly successfully completes the merger and acquisition of ABC TV Network, the market value will be relaxed over 30 billion USD, but the long-term debt possibly has about 10 billion. Converts, the debt proportion be only 30%, such debt proportion is not high regarding any big company, even can also play very good avoiding taxes effect. The ABC aspect set such request, absolutely stemming from worrying about goal of Firefly debt, many possibly for after both sides merged, weakened Eric as far as possible regarding the Firefly controlling force. 安静倾听的伊丽莎白微微挑了挑眉,虽然不知道萤火虫的详细收购计划,但她也清楚,萤火虫如果顺利完成ab电视网的并购,市值将轻松超过300亿美元,但长期债务可能只有100亿左右。换算一下,负债比例只有30%,这样的负债比例对于任何一家大公司来说都不算高,甚至还能够起到非常好的避税效果。ab方面提出这样的要求,绝对不是出于担忧萤火虫债务负担的目的,更多可能是为了在双方合并之后,尽可能地削弱艾瑞克对于萤火虫的控制力。 Although Elizabeth understood the ABC intention immediately, but Julia in some financial terminology to Eric mouth does not understand obviously, but. Julia also very much with ease found the point that oneself have been interested, asked: „After you purchase ABC, how many debts will be in?” 虽然伊丽莎白立刻就明白了ab的意图,但茱莉亚显然对艾瑞克口中的一些金融术语都不是太懂,不过。茱莉亚也很轻松地就找到了自己感兴趣的点,问道:“那你收购ab之后,会欠多少债啊？” „In addition the beforehand debt accumulates, about probably 10 billion USD.” “加上之前的债务累计,大概100亿美元左右吧。” Julia smacks the lips surprisedly. Said: „These many, if in this case, I also think...... That listing is better.” 茱莉亚惊讶地咂咂嘴。说道:“这么多,要是这样的话,我也觉得还是……那个上市更好一些。” Eric shakes the head with a smile, has not said anything. 艾瑞克笑着摇摇头,没说什么。 Elizabeth said: „Julia, is actually not this. After completing the merger and acquisition, according to the future new Firefly over 30 billion USD market values, 10 billion USD only will possibly be equal to 30% debts, the debt proportion of big company compared with 30% high many, that side the ABC TV Network ultimate goal want to make Firefly go on the market, but to not reduce debt.” 伊丽莎白则说道:“茱莉亚,其实不是这样的。完成并购之后,按照将来新萤火虫可能超过300亿美元的市值来说,100亿美元只相当于30%的负债,很多大公司的负债比例都要比30%高的多,ab电视网那边的最终目的只是想让萤火虫上市,而不是为了减轻负债。” „Hehe, I do not understand, but, these 10 billion USD, even if divides for ten years, it is estimated that must have the interest. According to the Firefly this year's profit, even if adds on ABC, saying that......” Julia was saying was saying cannot bear spit the tongue on oneself, she also realized that this obviously is impossible, otherwise looks like that many debt proportions that Elizabeth said to make money compared with the Firefly also high company? “呵呵,我不是太懂,不过,这100亿美元哪怕分十年来还,估计还要有利息啊。按照萤火虫今年的利润,哪怕加上ab的,岂不是说……”茱莉亚说着说着就自己忍不住吐了吐舌头,她也意识到这显然是不可能的,否则像伊丽莎白说的那么多负债比例比萤火虫还高的公司怎么赚钱？ „Naturally is not this,” Elizabeth does not mind Julia's to be ignorant, instead has analyzed animatedly: „According to 10 billion USD as well as the annual interest 5% debts, the capital as well as the interest that the Firefly Pictures first year must repay possibly is 1.5 billion USD, naturally, reduces along with the debt proportion. This digit will be getting fewer and fewer. Calculates according to first year 1.5 billion USD, this sum of money not from net profit, but transfers as the enterprise cost of operation from the earning of enterprise, like this year. Firefly and ABC TV Network, although net profit sum total, only then 1.5 billion USD, but the business income sum totals of two companies actually approach 20 billion USD . Moreover, this 1.5 billion USD can also play avoids taxes the function, according to the North America about 35% enterprise income taxes, in the middle of 1.5 billion USD has 5 2.5 billion USD to be Internal Revenue Service. Firefly were equal to only paying less than 1 billion USD money to be used to repay a debt.” Said finally, Elizabeth looked at Eric grinningly, somewhat took pleasure in others'misfortunes: „Naturally, such high debt, if the Firefly achievement cannot continue the rapid growth in the future, even if before does not stop, you definitely will have troublesome.” “当然不是这样,”伊丽莎白也不介意茱莉亚的无知,反而津津乐道的分析了起来:“按照100亿美元以及年息5%的负债,萤火虫影业第一年要偿还的本金以及利息可能是15亿美元,当然,随着债务比例降低。这个数字会越来越少。就按照第一年15亿美元来计算,这笔钱并不是从净利润里面出的,而是从企业的营收当中作为企业经营成本进行划拨,就像今年。萤火虫和ab电视网虽然净利润总和只有15亿美元,但两家公司的营业收入总和却接近200亿美元,而且,这15亿美元还能起到避税作用,按照北美35%左右的企业所得税,15亿美元当中有525亿美元本来是属于国税局的。萤火虫自己等于只出了不到10亿美元的钱用来还债。”说道最后,伊丽莎白笑嘻嘻地看了眼艾瑞克,有些幸灾乐祸:“当然喽,这么高的负债,如果将来萤火虫的业绩不能持续高速增长,哪怕只是停止不前,你都肯定会有麻烦的。” Julia fast quick mixes with a series of digit analysis words not to understand many regarding the Elizabeth language, instead hears last, somewhat worried that looks to Eric. 茱莉亚对于伊丽莎白语速很快又夹杂着一连串数字分析的话根本就没弄懂多少,反而听到最后一句,才有些担忧地看向艾瑞克。 „Has not related, if I will go bankrupt in the future, but can also live by pimping.” Eric said with a smile, but also puts out a hand the Julia's cheek that touches a face to worry about. “没关系啊,万一我将来破产了,还可以吃软饭的。”艾瑞克笑着说道,还伸手摸了摸一脸担忧的茱莉亚的脸蛋。 Elizabeth looks that Julia narrows eye to paste the cheek subconsciously in the appearance of Eric palm, has made a disgusting expression, suspends the small hand to catch up with saying of fly: „Cannot bear you.” 伊丽莎白看着茱莉亚下意识眯起眼睛将脸蛋贴在艾瑞克掌心的模样,做了个恶心的表情,摆着小手赶苍蝇似的说道:“真受不了你们。” Has the breakfast, Elizabeth in a hurry has driven the century city to go to work, Julia according to Eric last night instruction, bringing Emma to go to her accountant there together. 吃过早餐,伊丽莎白就匆匆开车去世纪城上班,茱莉亚按照艾瑞克昨晚的吩咐,带着艾玛一起去了她的会计师那里。 Eric has had the breakfast, called to chat something Katzenberg, opened own electronic mail, since there is Hotmail, Alan did not need to give Eric to deliver the document every so often again personally, a lot can be solved through the email, but the Eric surrounding person gradually was also familiar with through the electronic mail and Eric relates. 艾瑞克吃过早餐,又打电话跟卡森伯格聊了一些事情,才打开自己的电子邮箱,自从有了hotmail,艾伦很多时候都不用再亲自给艾瑞克送文件,很多事情都可以通过电子邮件来解决,而艾瑞克周围的人也渐渐习惯通过电子邮箱与艾瑞克联系。 Looked mail that yesterday accumulated, the time is around 9 : 00, Eric tidied up to return the Elizabeth room the notebook, was planning that in the girl family/home garage looked for a car(riage) to go to Playa Vista, his mobile phone ting has rung. 看完昨天积累下来的邮件,时间已经是九点多,艾瑞克将笔记本电脑收拾好放回伊丽莎白的房间,正打算到女郎家车库里找辆车去普雷亚维斯塔,他的移动电话铃声就响了起来。 The telephone is Amy Pascal hits, they chatted several in telephone, Eric has made the telephone call. 电话是艾米帕斯卡尔打来的,两人在电话里聊了几句,艾瑞克就挂了电话。 After one hour, Eric drives a build somewhat clumsy white Chevrolet business automobile to appear in a Venice beach seafood restaurant. 一个小时之后,艾瑞克开着一辆体型有些笨拙的白色雪佛兰商务车出现在威尼斯海滩一家海鲜餐厅里。 Amy Pascal and Drew waited here. 艾米帕斯卡尔和德鲁已经等在了这里。 „Eric,” Drew threw to hold Eric, saw Eric to stop in that Chevrolet of parking lot, the subconsciousness spits the mortise: „The car(riage) when you buy, the vision is really bad.” However, the voice just fell small girl to realize that this possibly is the car(riage) of some woman, curled the lip, waits for Eric and Amy Pascal fires off greeting, he is walking toward the dining room on pulling. “艾瑞克,”德鲁扑过来抱了抱艾瑞克,看到艾瑞克停在停车场的那辆雪佛兰,下意识吐槽道:“你什么时候买的这车啊,眼光真差。”不过,话音刚落小妮子就意识到这可能是某个女人的车,撇了撇嘴,等艾瑞克与艾米帕斯卡尔打完招呼,就拉着他朝餐厅里走去。 In the time the lunch early, possibly already has also been told. Under three people in the dinner table are implicated, the waiter has carried one coffee to Eric, peacefully got out of the way. 时间里午餐还早,可能是早就得到吩咐。三个人在餐桌旁坐下,侍者只是给艾瑞克端上了一杯咖啡,就安静地走开了。 Eric has not actually drunk the coffee thoughts, has pushed pushing toward side the coffee cup. Asking: „Took carry back several?” 艾瑞克却没有喝咖啡的心思,将咖啡杯朝旁边推了推。问道:“拿回来几个了？” Amy Pascal pulls out a folder to hand over from the package, said: „Three, «Spider-Man» and «Fantastic Four» and «Hulk» copyright all sides agreed the transfer agreement, has «Captain America» of the 21 st century Film Studio persists in wanting the «Night at the Museum» 30% capital power as well as the following sequel same entering capital proportion, they are not always willing to make concessions. Therefore must comply, you decided. However, Eric, I did not suggest to comply, otherwise, although has taken copyright, but another three companies extremely will be definitely discontented, they unified only attain 20% capital power, the sequel have 10% Oh, was right. They elect completely is «Night at the Museum» this special effect movie.” 艾米帕斯卡尔从包里掏出一个文件夹递过来,道:“三个,《蜘蛛侠》、《神奇四侠》和《绿巨人》的版权所有方都同意了转让协议,拥有《美国队长》的二十一世纪电影公司坚持要《博物馆奇妙夜》@30%的注资权以及后续续集同样的入资比例,他们始终都不肯退让。所以要不要答应,就得你来拍板了。不过,艾瑞克,我不建议答应下来,不然的话,虽然已经将版权拿到手,但另外三家公司肯定会非常不满的,他们统一只拿到20%的注资权,续集也只有10%哦,对了。他们选的全部都是《博物馆奇妙夜》这部特效电影。” Eric is listening to the explanation of Amy, lowers the head to read the copyright transfer agreement in hand, besides «Spider-Man», another two, although similarly is Marvel Superhero, but the reorganization in original space and time is not too successful. However, so long as «Spider-Man» succeeds in obtaining well. In the original space and time looks at the «The Avengers» series time, Eric most does not catch cold was Captain America, if not be able to take carry back in the future, that made god of Captain America in The Avengers hidden good, Eric did not believe the coordination of other Superhero. That so-called of the 21 st century Film Studio can play to play tricks. Waits for the surprised company to succeed in obtaining in the future, «Captain America» copyright sooner or later auto-regression. 艾瑞克听着艾米的解释,低头翻看着手中的版权转让协议,除了《蜘蛛侠》外,另外两个虽然同样是漫威一线的超级英雄,但原时空中的改编都不是太成功。不过,只要《蜘蛛侠》到手就好。原时空中看《复仇者联盟》系列的时候,艾瑞克最不感冒的就是美国队长了,如果将来真的拿不回来,那就让美国队长在复仇者联盟里神隐好了,艾瑞克也不相信没有其他超级英雄的配合。那个所谓的二十一世纪电影公司能够玩出什么花样来。等将来惊奇公司到手,《美国队长》的版权早晚会自动回归。 Eric too did not understand the surprised Superhero system that looks in the hand three transfer agreements, asked: „Other?” 艾瑞克对于惊奇的超级英雄体系并不是太了解,看完手中三份转让协议,就问道:“还有其他的吗？” Amy Pascal looked at Eric. Saying with a smile: „Blade, several years ago was bought by the new line, at the end of this year just arrives in full, if that side Firefly wants to continue maintains copyright, either consulted with the surprised company renews a contract, either must come out movie shoots. In addition, almost did not have, was right, I investigate, discovered that Marvel Comics with Universal was discussing transfers the «X-Men» copyright matter, last year after the Marvel Comics seven editors-in-chief left together, the surprised this year's condition was more awful, therefore they want to sell some copyright to receive the operation fund urgently again.” 艾米帕斯卡尔看了眼艾瑞克。笑道:“有一个刀锋战士,前几年被新线买去了,今年年底刚好到齐,如果萤火虫那边想要继续保持版权的话,要么与惊奇公司协商续约,要么就要将电影拍摄出来。除此之外,差不多就没了,对了,我调查的时候,发现惊奇漫画正在与环球商议转让《战警》版权的事情,去年惊奇漫画七位主笔一起出走之后,惊奇今年的状况更糟糕了,所以他们迫切地想要再出售一些版权获得运营资金。” Several other companies are good, is Universal. 其他几家公司还好,偏偏是环球。 Some Eric headaches, by the astuteness of Michael Eisner, once them gets rid, then Universal definitely will increase the chip, wants to rob again, only if a time fool to report an ultra high price, otherwise definitely will not be that easy matter. 艾瑞克有些头疼,以迈克尔艾斯纳的精明,一旦他们这边出手,那么环球肯定会加大筹码,再想要抢夺的话,除非做一次冤大头报个超高价,否则肯定不会是那么容易的事情。 Amy as if saw the worry of Eric, said with a smile: Eric, if must attain «X-Men» copyright is actually not that difficult matter, you do not know that the Michael Eisner recent body had the condition, will possibly endanger life, he has been relating the matter of heart surgery, Universal serious the greatly business governs by the Michael Eisner assistant now, heard that Michael Eisner also wish took the post of Universal Chairman by own good friend Michael Ovitz. ” 艾米似乎看出了艾瑞克的顾虑,笑道:艾瑞克,如果要拿到《战警》版权其实也不是那么难的事情,你难道不知道吗,迈克尔艾斯纳最近身体出了状况,甚至可能会危及生命,他一直在联系心脏手术的事情,环球现在大本分事务都由迈克尔艾斯纳的副手掌管,听说迈克尔艾斯纳还想要让自己的好友迈克尔奥维茨出任环球总裁。” Eric then thinks that in original space and time Michael Eisner truly had a big physical condition in 1994, how Eric is actually not specifically clear, only knows that Michael Eisner as if as before hugs before the surgery is possibly dying the mentality on surgery table, has assigned the Disney's successor. 艾瑞克这才想起来,原时空中迈克尔艾斯纳在1994年确实出现了一次大的身体状况,具体如何艾瑞克倒是不清楚,只知道迈克尔艾斯纳在手术之前似乎依旧抱着可能死在手术台上的心态,指定了迪斯尼的接班人。 „If can snatch, that as far as possible snatches, naturally, do not make the too big noise.” “如果能够抢过来,那就尽量抢过来,当然,也不要闹出太大的动静。” „I understand that” the Amy nod said: „What the surprised present most needs is the fund, therefore wants us the initial price to be high enough, surprised will definitely choose our.” Said here, Amy remembered anything suddenly, said: „Was right, Eric, I thought that if you favor Superhero of cartoon surprisedly, why completely does not buy now Marvel Comics Corporation, perhaps by the surprised present situation, wants to buy, has more than enough including 200 million USD.” “我明白,”艾米点头道:“惊奇现在最需要的是资金,所以只要我们这边开价足够高,惊奇肯定会选择我们的。”说道这里,艾米突然想起什么,道:“对了,艾瑞克,我觉得,如果你看好惊奇吗漫画的超级英雄的话,为什么不现在把惊奇漫画公司全部买下来呢,以惊奇现在的情况,或许想要买下来,连两亿美元都用不了。” Eric shook the head gently, says with a smile: „Now is also not the time, in brief, you snatch «X-Men» copyright and that's the end.” 艾瑞克轻轻摇了摇头,笑道:“现在还不是时候,总之,你把《战警》的版权抢过来就是了。” Amy Pascal does not understand that the Eric words are any meaning, but she had not asked that nods, said: Since then, in our hands had «Spider-Man» and «Fantastic Four» and «Hulk», when do you plan to launch these projects? ” 艾米帕斯卡尔不明白艾瑞克的话是什么意思,不过她也没有多问,点点头,道:那么,既然我们手中已经拥有了《蜘蛛侠》、《神奇四侠》和《绿巨人》,你打算什么时候启动这些项目？” „First is accumulating,” Eric said: „And other special effect technologies develop again for several years, if now manufactures, definitely cannot achieve the effect that I want, even if has achieved, it is estimated that was also the sky-high price.” “先攒着吧,”艾瑞克道:“等特效技术再发展几年,现在要是制作,肯定达不到我想要的效果,即使达到了,估计也是天价了。” Amy nods, when received exchange for these Superhero copyright, she had realized this issue, compares in DC's Superman and Batman, the surprised Superhero ability opened absolutely has hung, therefore, wanted 11 to show in movie general these superpower effects, absolutely compared with DC's Superhero on difficult many, now truly has not developed the Superhero movie time. 艾米点点头,在换取这些超级英雄版权的时候,她就已经意识到了这个问题,相比于d的超人和蝙蝠侠,惊奇的超级英雄能力绝对是开了挂的,因此,想要在电影上将这些超能力效果11展现出来,绝对要比d的超级英雄难上很多,现在确实还不是开发超级英雄电影的时候。 Finished talking this matter, Amy discussed that has telephoned to the Eric official goal: „Kevin Costner and his manager at exactly 12 : 00 can come, Eric, you look at first this script.” 谈完了这件事,艾米才商议起了打电话给艾瑞克的正式目的:“凯文科斯特纳和他的经纪人12点整才会过来,艾瑞克,你先看一下这个剧本吧。” Amy was saying, has pulled out script from package, has given Eric. 艾米说着,又从包里掏出了一个剧本,递给了艾瑞克。 Eric cast a sidelong glance the topic of script, the eye slightly has narrowed the eyes. 艾瑞克只是瞟了一眼剧本的题目,眼睛就微微眯了起来。 The inertia of history also is really super formidable. 历史的惯性还真是超级强大啊。 In the script home page writes several words strikingly: «Waterworld». 剧本首页上醒目地写着几个单词:《未来水世界》。 The chief criminal of Kevin Costner enterprise landslide, after «Waterworld» throws miserably, position equally matched Kevin Costner henceforth was unable to recover with Tom Cruise, Mel Gibson and the others, in Tom Cruise also when the «Mission: Impossible» series are supporting the fame, Kevin Costner actually can only reduce to plays not can be as good as of Superman father supporting role in «Man of Steel». 凯文科斯特纳事业滑坡的罪魁祸首,在《未来水世界》惨扑之后,原本与汤姆克鲁斯、梅尔吉布森等人咖位不相上下的凯文科斯特纳从此一蹶不振,在汤姆克鲁斯还在《碟中谍》系列撑着名气的时候,凯文科斯特纳却只能沦落到在《超人钢铁之躯》中饰演超人父亲这种配角的抵不上了。 „We to Kevin Costner transmits «Mission: Impossible» script the time, Kevin Costner is preparing for this movie, after I have looked, definitely has the prospect, moreover Kevin Costner did not have other rain Film Studio to come to an arrangement, therefore I thought that Eric, why you do not take this movie, I felt that this chapter into has « Mad Max «, moreover aquatic Max, was right, you first have a look at script, we wait a while to discuss again.” Amy was saying, died front coffee cup.( To be continued.) “我们向凯文科斯特纳发送《碟中谍》剧本的时候,凯文科斯特纳正在为这部电影做准备,我看过之后,绝对非常有前景,而且凯文科斯特纳还没有雨其他电影公司谈妥,所以我觉得,艾瑞克,为什么你不把这部电影拿下来呢,我感觉这回成为有一部《疯狂的麦克斯《,而且还是水上的麦克斯,对了,你还是先看看剧本吧,我们等一会儿再谈。”艾米说着,断气了面前的咖啡杯。(未完待续。)
