Chapter 596 第596章 Next morning, on United States all mainstream newspaper presented Eric and Buffett met with once more achieves the news of merger and acquisition agreement initially, because is the reason of weekend version the page layout will increase, 《Los Angeles Times》 also used very big length to achieve the process of agreement to carry on detailed counting one by one from the layout to yesterday Firefly last year, and has made a forecast to the Firefly future prospects for development. 第二天一大早,美国所有主流报纸上都出现了艾瑞克与巴菲特再次会面初步达成并购协议的消息,因为是版面增加的周末版的缘故,《洛杉矶时报》还用了很大篇幅将萤火虫去年从布局到昨天达成协议的过程进行了详细的历数,并对萤火虫将来的发展前景做了一番展望。 Eric is having the breakfast while was reading newspaper, the dining room entrance transmitted the slight abnormal noise. Turns head to look that Kate only wears a spacious white gentleman shirt to appear in the dining room entrance. 艾瑞克正一边吃着早餐一边读着报纸,餐厅门口传来轻微的异响。扭头看去,凯特只穿着一件宽大的白色男士衬衫出现在餐厅门口。 Eric discovered that the women were are not self-taught found his clothes to put on, because mainly they passed the night before Cliff Peak Manor usually wore the official formal clothes, the evening dress can demonstrate that the charm of woman was not false, but in the daily situation put on to be possible not to be comfortable, therefore after the women got out of bed, will look for his clothes to put on frequently. 艾瑞克发现女人们并不是无师自通地找到他的衣服来穿,主要还是因为她们在尖角庄园里过夜之前经常都穿着正式的礼服,晚礼服能够展示女人的魅力不假,但日常情况下穿起来可并不怎么舒服,于是女人们起床之后经常会找来他的衣服穿。 Kate discovered that Eric stared at the shirt next two longlegs steadily, the subconsciousness is slowing down the footsteps to conceal the somewhat unusual step. 凯特发现艾瑞克目不转睛地盯着自己衬衫下两条长腿,下意识放慢了脚步掩饰有些异样的步伐。 Until under the dinner table is implicated, Kate relaxed, remembers is tossed about a scene by Eric last night maliciously, Kate raised at heart immediately flame, but she quickly remembered last night the matter on party, saw newspaper in Eric hand, the expression somewhat was immediately disturbed: „Did Eric, on newspaper have last night matter?” 直到在餐桌旁坐下,凯特才松了口气,想起昨晚被艾瑞克狠狠折腾了一番的场景,凯特心里顿时升起一股火苗,但她又很快想起昨晚派对上的事情,看到艾瑞克手中的报纸,语气顿时有些忐忑:“艾瑞克,报纸上有没有昨晚的事情？” Eric knows what Kate finger is anything, some badly with a smile replied: „Has, is headlines,” 艾瑞克知道凯特指的是什么,有些坏坏地笑着回答道:“有啊,都是头条,” Kate at heart one tight, takes Eric newspaper hastily, turned several pages continuously, has not seen any last night them intimate the information on party, this relaxed, is staring Eric bitterly. 凯特心里一紧,连忙拿过艾瑞克身边一份报纸,连续翻了几页,都没有看到任何昨晚两人在派对上亲热的信息,这才松了一口气,然后恨恨地瞪着艾瑞克。 Eric sets out to arrive in the kitchen, will give the breakfast that Kate keeps to carry to hand in front of her, said: „Relax, last night matter also did not have any picture evidence, will not have any mainstream media to report. Even if these third-class tabloid newspaper hears news to make groundless accusations, must consider the consequence, therefore most will only spread in the circle.” 艾瑞克起身走到厨房里,将给凯特留的早餐端过来递到她面前,说道:“放心吧,昨晚的事情又没有任何照片证据,不会有任何主流媒体会报道的。就算是那些三流小报听到消息想要捕风捉影一番,也要考虑一下后果,所以最多只会在圈子里流传一下。” Kate just relaxed, takes up a slice of bread to eat. Hears the Eric last few words, gains ground: „That many people knew, they in secret will definitely speak irresponsibly.” 凯特刚刚放松下来,拿起一片面包就要吃。听到艾瑞克最后一句话,又抬起头:“那么多人都知道了,他们肯定会私下里乱说的。” „We from, on the other hand under the consideration,” Eric sits down on the chair again, took up just that newspaper. Continues saying: „This matter does not have any fault to you, not?” “我们从另外一方面考虑下,”艾瑞克重新在椅子上坐下,拿起刚刚那份报纸。继续道:“这件事对你没有任何坏处,不是吗？” Climbs up the Eric such big backstage, naturally will not have any fault, instead will make her acting career to bring it up a level. But Kate has pondered over, thinks at heart somewhat strangely. However, regarding thinks thoughts that for a while not the clear matter, Kate has not gotten to the root of a matter, in addition ‚amount of exercise’ was too big last night, Kate that was already big and hungry abandons these quickly, copes with the breakfast with single-hearted devotion. 攀上艾瑞克这么大的后台,当然不会有任何坏处,反而会让她的演艺事业更上一层楼。但凯特琢磨了一番,心里还是觉得有些怪怪的。不过,对于一时想不明白的事情,凯特也没有寻根究底的心思,再加上昨晚‘运动量’太大,早就饥肠辘辘的凯特很快抛开这些,专心对付起早餐来。 The Eric split vision notes the expression change of Kate. The happy expression of corners of the mouth was thicker. 艾瑞克余光注意到凯特的表情变化。嘴角的笑意更浓了一些。 The news passes on, to Kate the reputation and enterprise will not cause anything to harm, after all, although places the Hollywood Pyramid peak, Eric is actually not these 50-60 years old old man, he and Kate age is similar, knows the matter that they associate, most people will only envy Kate. 消息传出去,对凯特的名声和事业都不会造成什么损害,毕竟,虽然身处好莱坞金字塔顶端,艾瑞克却不是那些五六十岁的老头子,他与凯特的年龄相仿,知晓两人交往的事情,大部分人只会羡慕凯特。 However, this matter absolutely will not have any influence, the most important point. After knowing relations of Eric and Kate, dares to provoke the Kate man not to be many on own initiative. 但是,这件事也绝对不会没有任何影响,最最重要的一点。在知道艾瑞克与凯特的关系之后,敢于主动招惹凯特的男人就不多了。 Kate is wiping jam toward the bread on, unknowingly gains ground, just sees the happy expression on Eric face. Woman sixth sense makes her realize this expression keenly definitely with oneself related, vigilant asking: „What bad idea are you having?” 凯特往面包上抹着果酱,不经意抬头,刚好看到艾瑞克脸上的笑意。女人敏锐地第六感让她意识到这表情肯定与自己有关,警惕的问道:“你在打什么坏主意？” Eric said with a smile: „You said that was bad idea, when do you see the intelligence quotient normal villain to disclose your thoughts on own initiative?” 艾瑞克笑道:“你都说是坏主意了,你什么时候见过智商正常的反派会主动透露自己的心思？” Kate light snort|hum, picked up the dining speed, cleared off front breakfast quickly, looked before one and Eric body, emptied tableware. Has hesitated, Kate set out to tidy up on own initiative. 凯特轻哼了一声,加快了用餐速度,很快将面前的早餐一扫而光,看了看自己和艾瑞克身前都空了的餐具。迟疑了下,凯特还是起身主动收拾了起来。 Returns to the dining room, Kate to see that once more one side Eric opened had just placed the notebook, is examining anything. 再次回到餐厅,凯特见到艾瑞克已经打开了刚刚放在一边的笔记本电脑,正在查看着什么。 Sat down on just seat, sees Eric not to talk with oneself on own initiative, Kate took just that newspaper at will to turn bored. 在刚刚的位子上坐下,见艾瑞克没有主动跟自己搭话,凯特无聊地拿过刚刚那张报纸随意地翻了起来。 Saw that possibly carries on the anti- monopoly investigation to Firefly and ABC merger the article, the expression that the copywriter uses is shocking, complete Firefly and expression of ABC at all impossible smooth merge. 看到一篇可能会对萤火虫与ab合并案进行反垄断调查的文章,撰稿人用的语气非常耸人听闻,完全一副萤火虫与ab根本不可能顺利合并的语气。 Kate somewhat takes pleasure in others'misfortunes first, but thought immediately one should not this, therefore put out a hand to touch Eric gently, handed over that page of newspaper: „Eric, what this above said is real?” 凯特先是有些幸灾乐祸,但随即又觉得自己不该这样,于是伸手轻轻碰了碰艾瑞克,将那页报纸递过去:“艾瑞克,这上面说的是不是真的？” Eric has swept one, he just had read, said: „Real, not real.” 艾瑞克扫了一眼,他刚刚已经读过,道:“是真的,也不是真的。” „Such do not always be perfunctory to be good, too non- gentleman.” “你不要总是这么敷衍好不好,太不绅士了。” „Good, since you want to know that” Eric beckons toward Kate, making Kate sit to own side, said: „You looked that this article said that Firefly purchases the ABC biggest hindrance in ABC, but originally internal biggest hindrance Warren Buffett as well as Tom Murphy complied with this transaction, they are controlling 40% of ABC stock, in addition other side with the Firefly shareholder, favors has gone far beyond 51% the shareholder owning stocks share of merge, this has not established.” “好吧,既然你想知道,”艾瑞克朝凯特招招手,让凯特坐到自己身边,道:“你看,这篇文章说的,萤火虫收购ab最大的阻碍在ab内部,但原本内部最大的阻碍沃伦.巴菲特以及汤姆.墨菲都已经答应了这笔交易,他们两个人就掌控着ab股份的40%,再加上其他倒向萤火虫的股东,倾向于合并的股东持股份额已经远远超过51%,这一条就已经不成立了。” Kate hear of Eric said these, immediately feels that she is not interested in these probably. However, since was she provokes this topic, Kate has had to refer to the report content, pursued asks: „That this, anti- monopoly investigation?” 凯特听艾瑞克说完这些,顿时感觉到,她自己好像真的对这些不感兴趣。不过,既然是她挑起了这个话题,凯特只好指了指报道内容,追问道:“那这个呢,的反垄断调查？” „The monopoly limits of federal anti-monopoly law are very fuzzy, 90% industry magnates develop the certain extent, will appear approaches the behavior of monopoly, this is inevitable, so long as nobody investigated that the mansion functional department also few on own initiative looks for trouble. Investigation cause that the majority of counter- ridges settle a lawsuit is the colleague enterprise to suppress the competitor actually shoulders, but this also needs the support of the large amount of funds and personal connection. If must bring a lawsuit, Firefly does not lack the fund absolutely, as for personal connection, to cultivate the normal treatment spokesman in company, Firefly annually makes cash contributions and other expenditure over five million USD in the paid mansion adviser and normal treatment, that side ABC also similarly so. Moreover, the merge of Firefly and ABC has not offended the federal anti-monopoly law, even if some people jump to prevent , can only play the roles of some protracted time. One cannot obtain any advantage, disposable has raised up two formidable enemies to oneself. The matter of this gain does not equal the loss, I think that nobody is willing to do.” “联邦反垄断法的垄断界定很多都是非常模糊的,90的行业巨头发展到一定程度,都会出现一些擦边垄断的行为,这是无可避免的,只要没有人追究,正府职能部门也很少去主动找麻烦。大部分反垄断案的调查起因其实都是同行企业为了压制竞争对手而挑起的,但这也需要大量资金和人脉的支持。如果要打官司,萤火虫是绝对不缺资金的,至于人脉,为了培植公司的正治代言人,萤火虫现在每年在有偿正府顾问和正治献金等方面的花费就超过五百万美元,ab那边也同样如此。而且,萤火虫与ab的合并并没有触犯联邦反垄断法,即使有人跳出来阻止,也只能起到一些拖延时间的作用。自己得不到什么好处,又一次性给自己竖起了两个强大的敌人。这种得不偿失的事情,我想没有人愿意做。” Kate slight bow, does not know that must continue this topic, nearby notebook has heard a drop drop sound. Sounds to be similar to the ting of pager. 凯特微微点点头,不知道还要不要继续这个话题,旁边的笔记本电脑传来了一阵滴滴声。听起来类似于传呼机的铃声。 Eric also somewhat surprisedly looked at the past, discovered on the computer screen not to know when presented a dialog window. 艾瑞克也有些惊讶地看过去,发现电脑屏幕上不知道什么时候出现了一个对话窗口。 In dialog window springs one line of characters rapidly: „This is the testing version, I helped you install, tried what kind of?” 紧接着,对话窗口里迅速弹出一行字:“这是测试版,我帮你装上了,试试怎么样？” Is staring in the dialog box ‚Steve’ the name has gawked for a half second. Eric is makes at heart first finally the instant messenger software to Steve Mitnick somewhat joyfully, immediately on at heart was scolding a deserves death hacker, then knocks answering rapidly: „You entered my computer unexpectedly black, don't you think this very not politeness?” 盯着对话框里‘史蒂夫’的名字愣了半秒钟。艾瑞克心里先是对史蒂夫.米特尼克终于把即时通讯软件弄出来有些喜悦,随即就就在心里骂了一句该死的黑客,然后迅速敲出一段回话:“你竟然黑进了我的电脑,难道你不觉得这样很不礼貌吗？” „Oh, sorry, I thought that like this helps you install is more convenient.” “哦,抱歉,我只是觉得这样帮你装上更加便捷一些。” Eric may unable to listen to the meaning that anything is sorry from these words, grips the mouse to start to examine various functions of software reluctantly, after making instant messenger software tentative plan, Eric one after another remembers that some materials have passed to the opposite party, although the model of instant messenger software of this time the contact surface is somewhat crude. But the function of software was on the other hand good, the account number rank, the user information establishment, the simple expression, the mailbox connection as well as the chat group same do not lack, moreover operates is smooth. Although Steve Mitnick is one delays crazily, but technological strength actually absolutely top. 艾瑞克从这句话里可听不出什么抱歉的意思,无奈地握住鼠标开始查看软件的各种功能,在提出即时通讯软件设想之后,艾瑞克就陆续将自己记忆中的一些资料传给了对方,此时的这款即时通讯软件虽然界面有些简陋。但软件的功能相对来说已经非常不错了,账号等级、用户信息设置、简单表情、邮箱关联以及聊天群组一样不缺,而且运行非常流畅。史蒂夫.米特尼克虽然是一个拖延狂,但技术实力却绝对顶尖。 Kate has been staring at the dialog of Eric and Steve Mitnick curiously, sees Eric to inspect the software, asked curiously: „What thing is this?” 凯特一直好奇地盯着艾瑞克与史蒂夫.米特尼克的对话,见艾瑞克在检查软件,好奇地问道:“这是什么东西？” „A model of chat software,” Eric replied: „Had this, you can with placing the remote friend carry on the writing to chat through the network.” “一款聊天软件,”艾瑞克答道:“有了这个,你就可以通过网络与身处异地的朋友进行文字聊天。” „Oh,” Kate came the interest immediately, extends the small hand curiously on the keyboard struck one ‚hello’ the word. Was studying Eric just appearance, has pressed down the carriage return, then the looks like saw the child of interesting toy, somewhat joyfully stared at the word that in the window were sending out. An anticipation opposite party responds the appearance. “哦,”凯特顿时来了兴致,好奇的伸出小手在键盘上敲打出了一个‘hello’的单词。学着艾瑞克刚刚的模样,按下了回车键,然后像看到有趣玩具的小孩子,有些喜悦地盯着窗口上自己发出的单词。一副期待对方做出回应的模样。 Steve Mitnick has really made the response quickly: „What is this?” 史蒂夫.米特尼克果然很快做出了回应:“这是什么意思？” Eric struck a few words to return: „My woman was notifying you.” 艾瑞克敲打出一句话回了过去:“我女人在跟你打招呼。” Kate just must lodge the protest to the name of Eric, the opposite came one: „Oh, heard that your woman are very many.” 凯特刚刚要对艾瑞克的称呼提出抗议,对面就又来了一句:“哦,听说你女人挺多的。” „......” “……” Eric seized to reach the small hand of oneself waist hastily, comforting has patted the racket, spat the trough at heart: Can speak, does not have a look at the situation. 艾瑞克连忙捉住伸向自己腰间的小手,安抚地拍了拍,心里吐槽:会不会说话啊,也不看看场合。 Really. Facts showed the specific weight dragging sickness patient who mesh wire another end has to discuss a request: „Sorry, these words are probably inopportune, hasn't your woman been angry?” 果然。事实证明网线另外一端的重度拖延症患者还是有情商的:“抱歉,这句话好像不合时宜,你女人没生气吧？” Kate withdrawing, flings to a Eric supercilious look, then typed on the keyboard clumsily, sent one: „I am angry very much.” 凯特抽回手,甩给艾瑞克一个白眼,然后笨拙地敲打起了键盘,发过去了一句:“我很生气。” Opposite silent a while, returned to one: „I am sorry.” 对面沉默了一会儿,才回了一句:“我很抱歉。” Eric does not want to make them such superficially exchange, snatches the keyboard control power, the fingertip has jumped, fast exchanges with Steve Mitnick: „Since the software has done, that as soon as possible makes the promoted plan . Moreover, I non-periodically will also issue you my some ideas.” 艾瑞克可不想让两人就这么不痛不痒地交流下去,抢过键盘控制权,指尖跳跃,飞快地与史蒂夫.米特尼克交流起来:“既然软件已经做出来了,那就尽快把推广方案做出来,另外,我也会不定期地把自己的一些想法发给你们。” „This is only the testing version, I thought that again openly carry out to June to well.” “这只是测试版,我觉得还是到六月份再公开推行为好。” „What issue also has?” “还有什么问题吗？” „Issue are many, although has made many improvements, but has many bug as before, I discovered that the own at least several methods explain the cryptographic system of this model of software.” “问题很多,虽然已经做过了很多次完善,但依旧有很多bug,我发现自己至少有十几种方法破解这款软件的加密系统。” „My method cannot think, therefore, do not want to become others you like this changes too, in this world the normal person are more.” “我一种方法都想不起来,所以,不要把别人都想成你这样的变太,这个世界上还是正常人多一些的。” „I do not change too.” “我不是变太。” „I do not struggle this with you, within one month takes the promoted plan, do not forget the registration of patent, as for these bug that you said that later patched slowly was good, in this world did not have 100% perfect software.” “我不跟你争这个,一个月之内把推广方案拿出来,还有,别忘了专利的注册,至于你说的那些bug,以后慢慢修补就好了,这世界上本来就没有100完善的软件。” „Good,” the Steve Mitnick compromise said: „I make them do the first promoted plan . Moreover, you had said that must come Boston to chat, when comes?” “好吧,”史蒂夫.米特尼克妥协道:“我让他们先把推广方案做出来,另外,你说过要来波士顿聊聊的,什么时候过来？” Eric said: „Do you have the attention news?” 艾瑞克道:“你有关注新闻吗？” „Has, probably you attended the Golden Globe Award presentation ceremony, I just see.” “有啊,好像你出席了金球奖的颁奖典礼,我刚好看到。” „That is one month ago matter,” Eric speechless: „I now am very busy, perhaps next month will have free time.” “那已经是一个多月以前的事情了,”艾瑞克一阵无语:“我现在很忙,或许下个月有空。” „Then on next month,” opposite party returned to one, said quickly: „Oh, I just cast a sidelong glance the Yahoo main page, knows that you were busy at anything.” “那就下个月,”对方回了一句,很快又说道:“哦,我刚刚瞟了一眼雅虎主页,知道你在忙什么了。” The dialog of conclusion and Steve Mitnick, Eric opened the mailbox to look, Alan has sent his schedule. 结束与史蒂夫.米特尼克的对话,艾瑞克打开邮箱看了一下,艾伦已经将他的日程表发了过来。 „I the airplanes of three o'clock, Eric referred to the form on screen saying to Kate in the afternoon”. “我下午三点钟的飞机,”艾瑞克指了指屏幕上的表格对凯特道。 „I have matter today probably,” Kate stands up subconsciously, said. “我今天好像也有事情呢,”凯特下意识站起身,说道。 Eric shakes the head, draws to sit down Kate once more, says with a smile: „Your road did not walk well, but must make anything.” 艾瑞克摇头,将凯特拉过来再次坐下,笑道:“你路都走不好了,还要去做什么。” The Kate complexion blushed has hammered on Eric: „This has not blamed you.” 凯特脸色羞红地在艾瑞克身上锤了一下:“这还不是都怪你。” „Naturally, I have not denied this point,” Eric said with a smile: „Last night you said that you want the beautiful beach house, was inferior that I make them send some house materials, do you select?” “当然,我也没有否认这一点,”艾瑞克笑道:“昨晚你说你想要漂亮的海滨别墅,不如我让他们送来一些房屋资料,你挑一下？” „Does not want,” Kate refuses to say without hesitation: „I go back to live with Charlie together.” “不要了,”凯特毫不犹豫地就拒绝道:“我回去和查莉一起住吧。” Eric nods, said: „Good, that this.” 艾瑞克点点头,道:“好吧,那就这样。” Kate has gawked, she also thinks that Eric definitely will persuade, has not thought that this man such easily slightly crossed this matter, somewhat loses at heart suddenly, but in has not displayed well in the expression. 凯特愣了下,她还以为艾瑞克肯定会劝说一番,没想到这个男人这么轻易地就略过了这件事,心里突然又有些失落,但好在并没有在表情上表现出来。 They stayed morning time in the villa, afternoon time, Eric kept in Kate the villa the training, oneself take the airplane to fly to New York. 两人在别墅里呆了一上午时间,下午的时候,艾瑞克将凯特留在了别墅里修养,自己乘坐飞机飞往纽约。 If I make them send some house materials, you do select? ” 如我让他们送来一些房屋资料,你挑一下？” „Does not want,” Kate refuses to say without hesitation: „I go back to live with Charlie together.” “不要了,”凯特毫不犹豫地就拒绝道:“我回去和查莉一起住吧。” Eric nods, said: „Good, that this.” 艾瑞克点点头,道:“好吧,那就这样。” Kate has gawked, she also thinks that Eric definitely will persuade, has not thought that this man such easily slightly crossed this matter, somewhat loses at heart suddenly, but in has not displayed well in the expression. 凯特愣了下,她还以为艾瑞克肯定会劝说一番,没想到这个男人这么轻易地就略过了这件事,心里突然又有些失落,但好在并没有在表情上表现出来。 They stayed morning time in the villa, afternoon time, Eric kept in Kate the villa the training, oneself take the airplane to fly to New York.( To be continued.) 两人在别墅里呆了一上午时间,下午的时候,艾瑞克将凯特留在了别墅里修养,自己乘坐飞机飞往纽约。(未完待续。)
