黑色轿车穿过萤火虫影城繁忙的摄影棚区,罗恩・佩雷尔曼心不在焉地望着车窗外的人群,思索着接下来可能发生的事情。轿车在影城行政区办公楼下停了下来,司机拉开车门,罗恩・佩雷尔曼刚刚下车,就看到了站在不远处的三个人,被身着西服和职业套装的男女簇拥在中央的白色衬衫青年显得尤为显眼。„Wemetfinally, Mr.Perelman,”Ericis smilingRon that andwalksPerelmanhas graspedstarting, thenintroduced: „ThisisFirefly GroupChairmanFrankMr.Wells, thiswomanismyindividualassistant, KellyMissHaynes.”
“我们终于见面了,佩雷尔曼先生,”艾瑞克微笑着与走过来的罗恩・佩雷尔曼握了下手,然后介绍道:“这位是萤火虫集团总裁弗兰克・威尔斯先生,这位女士是我的个人助理,凯莉・海恩斯小姐。”RonPerelmanfromEricmannerjust right, had almost realized immediatelyfamiliar‚good cop, bad cop’piece, Jeffrey before Katzenberg, actswithout doubtisthat‚bad cop’, even if realized that thischeap trick, contrastsalsoto letRonwithall sorts ofbringcontrasts that beforehandoneweek of instituteencountersin the Perelmanheartfelt better.罗恩・佩雷尔曼从艾瑞克恰到好处的举止中,几乎立刻就意识到了一场熟悉的‘好警查和坏警查’的段子,杰弗瑞・卡森伯格之前扮演的无疑就是那位‘坏警查’,但即使意识到这种小把戏,与之前一周所遭遇的种种带来的反差对比起来也让罗恩・佩雷尔曼心中好受了许多。„Seesyouvery muchhappily, Mr. Williams,”inexpressionis bringingseveralwarm feelingsreluctantly, RonPerelman11greetedwithEric, Frank and Kellyhandshake.
“很高兴见到你,威廉姆斯先生,”语气中勉强带着几份热络,罗恩・佩雷尔曼11与艾瑞克、弗兰克和凯莉握手打招呼。IntroducedmutuallythatEricsaid: „Ithink that youdefinitelywith enough timehave not used the lunch, herejusthas a smalldining room.”
相互介绍完,艾瑞克道:“我想你肯定还没来得及用午餐吧,这里刚好有一家小餐厅。”RonPerelmanhas not certainly refused, to bringfrom... ■is long... ■wind... ■article... The assistantandEric of ♂oneselfgo tothatdining room that cinema cityinteriorErichas dinedfrequentlytogether.罗恩・佩雷尔曼当然没有拒绝,带着自…■长…■风…■文…♂己的助理与艾瑞克几人一起来到了影城内部艾瑞克经常用餐的那家餐厅。Both sidesjusthad experienced a conflictafter all, simplelunchalsoeach oneamongextinguished, eventually the impossiblerealwarm feelingsawkwardlygot up.
双方毕竟是刚刚经历过一场冲突,简单的午餐也只是将各自之间的尴尬消弭了一些,终究不可能真的热络起来。Told that the attendantremove the tableware, exchangescoffee, Ericfinallymentions the proper business, said: „Ron. Sinceyouwantto talktomepersonally, regarding the Marvelmatter, Ithinks that youaffirmedhadownsolution, right?”
吩咐侍应生撤掉餐具,换上咖啡,艾瑞克才终于提起正事,道:“罗恩。既然你想要亲自跟我谈,那么,对于漫威的事情,我想你肯定已经有自己的解决方案了,对吗?”Inheartonce moreflood a bitterness and astringency, RonPerelmannods: „Yes. Eric,”said that this, RonsomePerelmanunwillingheartshave hesitated the moment, butsomewhatdejectedcontinuedeventually: „Ibasicallyagreed that the Firefly Groupdebttransfers shares of stock the strategy, but, aboutto the compensation of Marvelcirculationstockshareholder, needsFirefly Groupaloneto undertake, mybottom linetakes the Marvelstock in hand.”
心中再次泛起一丝苦涩,罗恩・佩雷尔曼还是点点头:“是的。艾瑞克,”说完这句,罗恩・佩雷尔曼还是有些不甘心地迟疑了片刻,但终究还是有些颓然地继续说了下去:“我基本上同意萤火虫集团的债转股策略,不过,有一条,关于对漫威流通股股东的补偿,需要萤火虫集团独自承担,我的底线只是将手中的漫威股份拿出来。”Ericabsolutelydoes not have the Katzenberganxioustemperament. Saidas beforecalmly: „Butthisis unfairtoFirefly, wecompared with the creditor who the Marvelshareholderalsowants the weak trend, ifthislossis bornebyFirefly, ourlosseswill expandonce more.”艾瑞克完全没有卡森伯格的急脾气。依旧心平气和地说道:“但这对萤火虫来说就太不公平了,我们本身就是比漫威股东还要弱势的债权人,如果这笔损失由萤火虫承担,我们的损失将再次扩大。”Although the Ericwordsdo not haveanymistakelogically, butRonPerelmanthoughtthat‚Firefly’and‚weak trend’thesetwowordswill relate, in any eventappeared was too absurder: „Eric, Iknow that youregard as importantMarvelabsolutely. Itsvaluewill stem from the expectations of allpeopleby far. SincethistimeIlostthoroughly, Ido not planto continueto insistanythingnow. Justconditionwasmyfinalbottom line.”
虽然艾瑞克的话在逻辑上没有任何错误,但罗恩・佩雷尔曼还是觉得,将‘萤火虫’和‘弱势’这两个单词联系起来,无论如何都显得太荒谬了一些:“艾瑞克,我知道你绝对非常看重漫威。它的价值将远远出乎所有人的预料。既然这次我彻底输了,那我现在也不打算继续坚持什么。刚刚的条件是我的最后底线。”Erichas hesitated, lookstoKelly: „Mustredeemin the marketallMarvelcirculationstocks, how muchmoneyneeds?”艾瑞克沉吟了下,看向身旁的凯莉:“要赎回市场上所有的漫威流通股,需要多少钱?”Kellyalmostwantsto loseto a Ericsupercilious look of putting on airs, butissimplyagilyreplies: „The stock pricefluctuation of Marvel was very recently big, butdefers to the recentsevendays of stock price the mean value, wantsto take back the Marvelcirculationstock in marketcompletely. Needsabout72 millionUSD.”凯莉差点想要丢给装模作样的艾瑞克一个白眼,但还是干脆利索地答道:“最近漫威的股价波动很大,不过按照最近七天股价的平均值,想要全部收回市场上的漫威流通股。需要7200万美元左右。”„72 millionUSD, thissum of money are not many,”Ericturns headto looktoRonPerelman, disregardstosecretly rejoicing that in the gridflashes through, a topicrevolution. Said: „According to the Marvelpresentsituation, if no Fireflyto meddle, mostsupportsagain for oneyear, Marvelhas topropose the bankruptcy protectionto the federal courton own initiative, Iguessedthat time, Andrews Holdings Ltd. wantto solvethistrouble, absolutelywas not the matter that 72 millionUSDcanhandle.”
“7200万美元,这笔钱并不算多,”艾瑞克扭头看向罗恩・佩雷尔曼,无视对方眼中闪过的暗喜,话题一转。说道:“按照漫威现在的形势,如果没有萤火虫插手,最多再支撑一年时间,漫威就不得不主动向联邦法院提请破产保护,我猜那个时候,安德鲁斯控股公司想要解决这场麻烦,就绝对不是7200万美元可以搞定的事情。”RonPerelmanfromEricjustexpression, but alsothinks that under heplansto undertakethisexpenditure, somewhatwas rejoicing. Hears the Ericfollowingwords, disappointedat the same timethenattemptsto act shamelessly saying: „Eric, mycompanyanyfund, Ihave not thought that youdefinitelydo not wantthismatterto continueto tow, not?”罗恩・佩雷尔曼从艾瑞克刚刚的语气里,还以为他打算承担下这笔开支,正有些庆幸。听到艾瑞克接下来的话,失望的同时便企图耍赖道:“艾瑞克,我的公司已经没有任何资金了,我想你肯定不愿意这件事继续拖下去,不是吗?”Ericshakes the head saying: „No, inyourhandhas the fund, allpeopleknow that youhave bought upfourhundred millionUSDFireflybonds. Iguess the strategy that hasfor a long timedoes not conform toyourinvestmentcreed, then, Fireflycantake back the bond in yourhandahead of time, completelyorpartgood, naturally, Fireflywill not keep prices downlike the Wall Streetinvestorabsolutely, wecandefer to the face valuecompletelyredeemequally.”艾瑞克摇头道:“不,你手里有资金,所有人都知道你买进了四亿美元的萤火虫债券。我猜长期持有的策略并不符合你的投资信条,那么,萤火虫可以提前收回你手中的债券,全部或者一部分都行,当然,萤火虫绝对不会像华尔街投资人那样压价,我们可以完全按照票面价值进行等价赎回。”RonPerelmanhas not thought that Ericeven/includingZijitravelled together the matter that seizes the chanceto keep prices downto know, althoughin the surfacedoes not haveanythingto change, in the heartas beforehas actually criticizedseveral. Ericsaidright, hefor a long timehad not had the thought of Fireflybond, after the planattaineddirectorFirefly the seat, onlyretainspart of bondsto use to sustainoneselfcreditoridentity, otherundersellcompletely.罗恩・佩雷尔曼没想到艾瑞克连自己被同行趁机压价的事情都知道了,虽然表面上没什么变化,心中却依旧暗骂了几声。艾瑞克说的没错,他本来就没有长期持有萤火虫债券的念头,原本计划拿到萤火虫董事席位后,只保留一部分债券用以维持自己债权人身份,其他全部抛售掉。At the popularity of Firefly Grouplong-termbond, even ifonlyhasseveralmonths, hands overalso to gainseveral millionUSDprice differences, even ifcannotundersellfor a while, fourhundred millionUSDbondscanbring the stable22 millionUSDinterestto draw bonusevery yearas before.
以萤火虫集团长期债券的受欢迎程度,即使只持有几个月时间,转手之间也能赚上几百万美元的差价,即使一时没能抛售,四亿美元债券每年依旧可以带来稳定的2200万美元利息分红。Ericseems like very sincereinitial costredeems the plan, will makehimloseat leastseveral millionUSD.艾瑞克看似非常厚道的原价赎回方案,还是会让他损失至少几百万美元。NotesRon the Perelmanpuzzledlook, Ericdid not urgethatas ifhas rememberedanything, in a low voicewithsideFrankWellswhisper.
注意到罗恩・佩雷尔曼的纠结神色,艾瑞克也不催促,似乎想起了什么,低声与身旁的弗兰克・威尔斯耳语了起来。RonPerelmantrulyis at heart puzzledat this time, hesuddenlydiscoveredthathas gotten out of trouble, hehas toaccept for oneweek ago, the firstsolution that Katzenbergproposed. Perhaps the onlydifferenceis onlyEricsolves the manner of thismatterto be temperate, does not have the aggressiveness of Katzenberg.罗恩・佩雷尔曼此时心里确实非常纠结,他突然发现,兜兜转转了一圈,他还是不得不接受一个多星期以前,卡森伯格提出的第一份解决方案。唯一的区别或许只是艾瑞克解决这件事的态度非常温和,丝毫没有卡森伯格的咄咄逼人。Butthisisanything, ifcanearngreatlyUSD, RonPerelmanwill not mindsimilarlyto the person who in the heartmostloathesgreets with a smile.
但这算什么,如果可以赚取大把美元的话,罗恩・佩雷尔曼自己同样不会介意对心中最最厌恶的人笑脸相迎。FeelsEricandFrankWellsfinishes talkinganything, looksonce moretooneself, RonPerelmanknows that hedid not haveotherroad to elect, has saying: „Eric, only then72 millionUSD, if the followingMarvelstock pricerises, Iwill not pull out the one centagain.”
感受到艾瑞克与弗兰克・威尔斯谈完什么,再次看向自己,罗恩・佩雷尔曼知道他已经没有别的路可选,只好说道:“艾瑞克,只有7200万美元,如果接下来漫威股价上扬的话,我不会再掏一分钱。”Ericnods, has not haggled overthesesmalldetailsagain, hebelieves that RonPerelmansillyto continue toss aboutanything, said: „Does not have the issue.”艾瑞克点点头,没有再计较这些小细节,他相信罗恩・佩雷尔曼不会傻到继续折腾什么,说道:“没问题。”RonPerelmanthinksthatimmediatelyadds: „, Ihope that Fireflycantradeis responsible forthismatterpersonally.”罗恩・佩雷尔曼想了想,立刻又补充道:“还有,我希望萤火虫能够换个人负责这件事情。”„This is also I have the meaning that Frankcomes,”Erichas referred toFrankwith a smileWells: „ThenFrankwill have full authority and responsibility forthismatter, then, thenyoucanchatfirst, I have the work to do, I must say good bye now.”
“这也是我带弗兰克过来的意思,”艾瑞克笑着指了指身旁的弗兰克・威尔斯:“接下来弗兰克会全权负责这件事,那么,接下来你们两个可以先谈谈,我还有工作要做,失陪了。”Said good-byeFrankWellsandRonPerelman, bringingKellyto move towardEric of Victoria’s Secretmovie studioto note the femaleassistantto lookrepeatedlytoownlook, said with a smile: „To say that whatsaiddirectlyand that's the end?”
辞别了弗兰克・威尔斯和罗恩・佩雷尔曼,带着凯莉走向维密摄影棚的艾瑞克注意到女助理频频望向自己的眼神,笑道:“想说什么直接说就是了?”„No, butfelt that youprocess the method of thismatterto look like a middle-aged person of 40-50 -year-old being worldlycompletely, did not shake the headto......”Kelly, said: „Yourthis, toohad been probably strange, littleseesyouryoung and impetuousside.”
“没有啊,只是感觉你处理这件事的方法完全像一个四五十岁人情练达的中年人,也不对……”凯莉摇了摇头,道:“你好像一直就这样,太奇怪了,很少看到你年轻气盛的一面。”Ericlooked ataround the eye, approachedfemaleassistantsome, saidin a low voice: „Is inferiorto work a night shiftto be what kind oftonight, letsyouexperienceme‚young and impetuous’side.”艾瑞克看了眼周围,靠近了女助理一些,低声道:“不如今晚加个夜班怎么样,让你见识一下我‘年轻气盛’的一面。”KellyblushesEricshoves open, said: „Icomplied withNinato have the suppertogether, youprovokedin the movie studiothesesmallprofessional model, theydefinitelymet12wanting.”凯莉红着脸将艾瑞克推开,道:“我可是答应了妮娜一起吃晚餐的,你去招惹摄影棚里那些小模特吧,她们肯定会12分的愿意的。”Ericshakes the head saying: „IcannothaveanythingwithmyHeroineunder normal conditions,”saw that Kellythrows the look that despises, Ericexplainsawkwardly: „At leastduring the shootsmovienot, thisisreal.”艾瑞克摇头道:“我通常情况下都不太会与自己的女主角发生什么,”看到凯莉投来鄙视的眼神,艾瑞克尴尬地解释道:“至少在拍摄电影期间不会,这是真的。”„Cannot think that you are very specialized,”Kellyteasedwith a smile.
“想不到你还挺专业的,”凯莉笑着调侃道。„Thiswithhas nothing to dospecialized,”Ericshakes the head: „Youknow that Igenerally speakingalsocalculateclearperson who sympathizesvery much, ifHeroinealsorestedlast nightsideme, next dayinsquare, ifshedoes not do well, I was very difficultto scoldagainwithout scruple, butthiswishoutbreakcannot the feelingwas in fact uncomfortable.”
“这与专业无关,”艾瑞克摇头:“你知道的,我总体来说还算个很体贴的晴人啊,如果女主角昨晚还睡在我身边,第二天在片场如果她表现不好的话,我就很难再毫无顾忌地骂出来了,这种想要发作而不能的感觉实际上非常难受。”
The KellywudemonwhiteEric, in the expressionwas bringingseveralpoints of charm in anger: „Good, Iwithdrewmyjustwords, youwere the youngbastard who had the violenceto favor.”凯莉妩魅地白了艾瑞克一眼,语气中带着几分娇嗔:“好吧,我收回我刚刚的话,你就是个有暴力倾向的小混蛋。”
